On top of the Cloud Sea.

"Hey, that fellow immortal in there... Are you alright?" Ying Zhi's face was a mask of worry. That Lady Shen looked like an Earth Immortal, but for some reason, all of these people were extremely confident in sending her into the Crystal Palace. Ying Zhi knew the Cloud Beast the best – he was understandably worried that something would go wrong in there.

"Don't worry, Celestial Emperor. Shen Ying knows what to do," Lonemoon responded. He thought for awhile and added, "I think?" He just hoped that she would not cause trouble.

"..." What does he mean by he thinks? Now, Ying Zhi was even more worried than before!

"The eddy on the sea is gone!" Someone shouted.

All of them paused and turned to look. Indeed, a few metres from them, the eddy which was protected by the golden array had disappeared. Instead, there was calm. Even the waves had stopped.

Now that the eddy was gone, the hole that was probably opened by the Cloud Beast had closed as well. Ying Zhi was elated. Indeed, an immortal came up to report awhile later that the Cloud Sea was no longer leaking. Ying Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. It looked like the Cloud Beast had been persuaded.

The few of them waited for awhile longer. Faintly, they saw a huge bubble rising from the seabed. It cut through the sea and flew toward the crowd. Inside the bubble stood two figures – a tall one and a short one. The taller one was Shen Ying, but the one next to her looked like a child, and must have been the Cloud Beast.

"Ying Zhi..." Before they reached them, the Cloud Beast suddenly charged out of the bubble and fell into Ying Zhi's arms. It started to wail like a baby. "Wah! I will never despise you again! I will never threaten to leave the Cloud Sea again!" The Big Sister out there is super scary!

Ying Zhi stared blankly at the Cloud Beast, who suddenly had a complete change in attitude. It was even more affectionate than it had been before it realised Ying Zhi's true gender. Ying Zhi did not know how to react. He patted the patting Cloud Beast awkwardly and sighed, "It's good that you've figured things out."

"How did you do that?" Lonemoon whispered to Shen Ying, who was now sitting atop Yi Qing's sword. Everyone heard how much the Cloud Beast despised Ying Zhi before. How did she manage to get them to reconcile after just five minutes? Was she that good at the art of persuasion?

"I didn't do anything. I just went in to talk some sense into it," Shen Ying calmly answered.

"Oh." Lonemoon nodded. Then, he jumped.

Wait a moment!

Shen Ying's reasoning techniques were just...

He turned and pursed his lips. The Cloud Beast's face was indeed still swollen. That freak must have been responsible for it!

"Thank you, Fellow Immortals. You helped my Cloud Sea avert a great danger," Ying Zhi thanked them sincerely. He looked at Shen Ying gratefully and said, "It must have been tough on you, Fellow Immortal. If you ever need help from the Cloud Sea in the future, Ying Zhi will definitely do what he can."

"It's alright. Everybody's household has children in need of disciplining," Shen Ying replied.

The child in Ying Zhi's arms trembled and buried its head deeper into Ying Zhi's embrace. It did not even dare to look back at Shen Ying.
