When it was Yun Ya and Yun Yi's turn, surrounded by hidden guards, Zhao Yangzi glanced at Ju Yin.
"Take them down first. I need to check on Feng Chu's injuries."
Yun Yi was startled. He looked up, trying to see the expression of the person on the couch, but found she had already disappeared.
The two were then escorted down and imprisoned with Yun He.
After Zhao Yangzi dealt with the sect matters, the elders from each peak gathered around, directly questioning who this Ye Shenzun was.
"Everyone, she is the Divine Maiden. Don't have any ideas about her; she's not someone you can afford to offend." Everyone shivered. Who would dare offend someone so powerful? Not to mention she possessed a spatial artifact capable of holding living beings, a space that might have already become a secret realm! With such heaven-defying resources, one could only imagine her future achievements.
Inside the space, Feng Chu was severely injured. Even after drinking spiritual spring water, he remained unconscious when Ju Yin entered.
"Sister, Brother Feng is too badly hurt. My spiritual power can only heal his external wounds; I need your help," Xiaobai said urgently upon seeing his sister.
"Don't panic, Sister is here!" Ju Yin's voice soothed Xiaobai's anxiety.
Ju Yin activated her healing eye. She saw that Feng Chu's meridians were almost destroyed by a massive energy. Xiaobai's white spiritual power could only mend external injuries and purify malevolent energies. Feng Chu's life force was nearly extinguished; only Ju Yin's green life spiritual power could restore him.
Xiaobai, A You, and Xiao Wangyou held their breath, not daring to disturb Ju Yin as she channeled her spiritual power. A surging green spiritual force enveloped Feng Chu. Within his body, unseen by Xiaobai and the others, countless green energies slowly repaired the broken meridians. Finally, Feng Chu was encased in a green cocoon. Ju Yin withdrew her hands, her spiritual power depleted. She was supported by Xiaobai and Xiao Wangyou.
"Sister, drink some water. Are you alright?" Two pairs of worried eyes looked at Ju Yin.
Ju Yin touched the hair of the two little ones, feeling a slight warmth in her heart. Was this what being cared for felt like? When she was Ye Ju, she had experienced various emotions in Huaxia, feeling joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. She had desires and almost couldn't break free from the cycle of reincarnation. This mortal world had its own charm; no wonder people couldn't see through it! She herself was deeply immersed in it.
"Sister is fine. Don't forget, I am Ju Yin Shenzun!"
"Sister, you seem different," Xiaobai looked at Ju Yin, who was like his sister but also not quite his sister.
"Haha, Huohu, your sister has made a breakthrough. Her divine soul is now in harmony, and she has returned. Having experienced the mortal world and absorbed human vitality, she's much more lovable than the former Xiao Ju Yin!" Long San's hearty laughter echoed from the rooftop.
"Stinky Daddy, you've been drinking again, and you've finished all the spirit wine." Xiaobai recognized his father's voice and knew he had been sneaking drinks.
Ju Yin's lips curved upwards. It was good. Huohu was so cute now! He finally had the temper of a young cub.
"A You, is there any food? I'm hungry," Ju Yin called out to A You, who was outside the door.
"Fairy, it's already prepared. We were just waiting for your command." Ever since A You saw the Fairy cleave a peak with a single sword, his demeanor had changed, and he had become uneasy. At that moment, he felt the Fairy was a supreme deity, and he was an ant unworthy of even looking up at her. He fell into deep self-doubt. But now, A You was overjoyed. The Fairy was still the Fairy who loved good food, and he felt needed.
Everyone ate their meal with joy. In the end, they decided to return to the courtyard of the Chaotian Immortal Sect. Feng Chu would recuperate in the space, where his spiritual energy was more abundant, allowing for a faster recovery.
Upon arriving at the courtyard, the Elder with Double Pupils saw Ju Yin and the others and suddenly ran over, grabbing A You to examine him. Seeing he was unharmed, he was relieved.
"What happened? You only went to a banquet, and it caused such a commotion. I wish I had gone too. When I wanted to go later, the Chaotian Immortal Sect was under martial law. All sect members were ordered not to leave their residences, or they would be treated as enemy invaders. So, I couldn't get in. And their main peak was split by a single sword strike, how exhilarating!" The Elder with Double Pupils gesticulated excitedly as he spoke.
"A slight incident occurred, but it's resolved now. Feng Chu just sustained a minor injury," Ju Yin leaped up and sat on the rooftop.
The Elder with Double Pupils observed that the little Fairy's aura felt somewhat off and was very puzzled. He pulled his young disciple aside to ask.
"Do you know who that person who cleaved the peak was? I went to see the split mountain. It was smooth and flawless, still containing the divine charm of the sword. What kind of genius is this, capable of achieving unity of heaven and man, unity of man and sword? This is not easily achieved. Quickly tell me, so I can go and learn from them." The Elder with Double Pupils was eager to drag his young disciple to find and recognize the person.
A You helplessly glanced at his master. The person who split the mountain was sitting on the rooftop.
"Master, there's no need to go out and search; you can see her anytime," A You pointed at the Fairy sitting on the rooftop.
The Elder with Double Pupils turned his head and looked at the little Fairy sitting on the rooftop, his mouth agape in surprise. Was the little Fairy this terrifyingly powerful?
Ju Yin listened to their master-disciple conversation throughout. She grinned at the Elder with Double Pupils, raising an eyebrow. Was he here to learn?
The Elder with Double Pupils quickly laughed it off. This little Fairy was incredibly beautiful but so violent. He couldn't afford to provoke her!
A while later, Steward Zhu also returned, bringing bad news: Yun He, Yun Ya, and Yun Yi had escaped! Taking advantage of the un-repaired mountain protection formation, they had fled the sect.
"They escaped. The Chaotian Immortal Sect must still have an inside informant." Tian Ji stepped into the courtyard and heard this, nodding in agreement. Ju Yin flew down and sat in her leisurely chair. Hearing that Yun He had escaped, she frowned and asked:
"How could Qing Yang's sect be so disorganized?"
"Fairy, the Chaotian Immortal Sect's power fell into the hands of my sister, Madam Zhu, two hundred years ago. She is Yang'er's mother, so she must have tolerated much." Steward Zhu remembered that before his nephew was born, his sister was always overshadowed by the second madam. As her elder brother, he couldn't interfere in the sect leader's personal affairs and didn't know her situation immediately. He had always felt guilty about this. Even when she later poisoned him, he merely left the sect and went into exile.
"I see. Why was Madam Zhu so insistent on marrying the Sect Leader? Couldn't she just divorce him?" Ju Yin recalled the betrayal her previous self had experienced in Huaxia. Now, it didn't even cause a ripple. Matters of love were all illusions!
"Fairy, your words are insightful, but how many people can truly see through it!" The Elder with Double Pupils suddenly spoke with sadness.
Tian Ji suddenly looked at Ju Yin and tentatively said, "Shenzun, Qing Yang is getting married the day after tomorrow. Do you have any thoughts on the matter?"
Ju Yin was stunned by Tian Ji's question. Qing Yang's wedding? Why should she have thoughts on it? Wasn't it a good thing? When she first heard about it, she felt a bit uncomfortable, but now...
"Qing Yang will not be getting married. His fiancée, if it's that Saintess, is not suitable!" Ju Yin could sense the Saintess's malice. She was not worthy of Qing Yang.
Zhao Yangzi, who was about to enter the courtyard gate, heard Ju Yin Shenzun's words. His heart inexplicably leaped at her statement. Not suitable...
