After staying together in Fallen Maple Leaf Valley for several months, Chu Yu and Xie Xi decided to take a trip.

An astonished Chu Sheng was tearful. “Little brother has only returned for a few days. Why are you already going away and leaving big brother behind again…”

Xie Xi said coolly, “We have been accompanying you in Fallen Maple Leaf Valley for a long time. If you stop dragging shixiong to listen to you preach for several hours, then we don’t mind staying a little longer.”

Chu Yu gave a dry cough and clapped Xie Xi. “Big brother, we are also going out to search for Xuan Jing. Don’t worry, Xie Xi and I will return often.”

After a pause, he asked, “Young Master Fu hasn’t returned since he left last month. Big brother, did you… quarrel?”

At the mention of Fu Chongyi, Chu Sheng’s initially frosty expression softened. He shook his head with a smile and stroked Chu Yu’s hair. “He said that he wants to give me a surprise.”

It had not been easy for these two men to get together. Chu Yu could not help but sigh as he recalled how Fu Chongyi had been willing to give Chu Sheng his arm. After listening to Chu Sheng’s whispered instructions, he left Fallen Maple Leaf Valley with Xie Xi.

For Chu Sheng to agree to let him leave with Xie Xi… looked like he was slowly beginning to let go of him.

Chu Yu felt comforted.

They were already pretty familiar with Jiaoxia. The Chu clan was also quite close to Linlan. Chu Yu considered it for a moment, then headed in the direction towards Linlan.

Xie Xi naturally acquiesced to his wishes. The only thing was that he said that he started to “feel dizzy and weak” early on the day of departure. Thus, he attached himself behind Chu Yu and hugged him as he chuckled, refusing to release him no matter what.

Chu Yu was accustomed to this child’s clingy nature and let him have his way. After traveling for half a day, they crossed over into Linlan.

It was now spring. Life had begun to awaken, and everywhere below them was green and luxuriant; it was pleasant to look at. Chu Yu dropped into the mountain forest and held hands with Xie Xi as they took a leisurely stroll on the path.

Night descended swiftly upon them. Chu Yu did not intend to stay the night in the nearby town. Instead, he found a tent in his ring and was about to take it out when he glimpsed a bronze mirror in the corner of his spacial ring.

This bronze mirror had been inconspicuous as it lay quietly in the corner, but now, it was emitting white light as if something was going to gush out of it.

Chu Yu uttered a sound of surprise and considered it for a moment. He then smacked himself on the head as he recalled.

This was… the bronze mirror that he had picked up during that year in the mausoleum ruins when he broke through and left the imaginary realm in Xie Xi’s mind. He had forgotten about it all these years, but now it was suddenly shining. What was this about? Could it be that there was something sealed in it?

Chu Yu hurriedly took the bronze mirror out and briefed Xie Xi on it. Both of them placed the mirror a zhang[1] away in front of them and stared intently at it.

After a while, the light gradually weakened. Vague images appeared on the surface of the mirror and then gradually cleared up. There were even voices coming from it—

“… As you have just seen, those who are from Tian Yuan Sect are mean, wimpy, and love to screw people up. They all like to indulge in histrionics.”
