"Wha...?"

Ye Gui Feng walks through the sect in utter silence. He was speechless. Wherever he went people would look at him funny.

They would whisper between themselves as if they shared a secret that can only be talked about between themselves.

But h Ye Gui Feng e did manage to hear bits and pieces. News have gotten out that he had kissed Xiao Ju Hong and this had seemingly made everyone think that he is into necrophilia.

Whenever Ye Gui Feng looked at his fellow disciples regardless of their cultivation base or status they would all immediately look away from him. Some even ran right off while others quickly bowed and apologized...

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Ye Gui Feng ran back into his Immortal Cave with tears in his eyes. He's ruined. He has been thoroughly ruined!

There was no way for Ye Gui Feng to possibly ever show his own face in society ever again with all these rumors circulating around about him!

Shutting out the outside world from his home Ye Gui Feng hugs onto Xiao Ju Hong and cries miserably in its arms.

Ye Gui Feng feels like the entire world is bullying him for a great misunderstanding.

"That damn bitch Long Huangrong! One of these days I'll definitely get back at her!"

A few minutes of sulking and basking in the warmth and comfort provided to him by Xiao Ju Hong Ye Gui Feng feels slightly better about himself.

"...If only... You were alive."

Ye Gui Feng presses hand to Xiao Ju Hong's cold and expressionless face.

"*Sigh*"

Ye Gui Feng sighs while shaking his head. He has no clue what kind of person the body that Xiao Ju Hong had possessed had been when she was alive.

Had they been a prideful little princess with an arrogant attitude like Long Huangrong? Or had they been someone that is more timid?

"If I met this person when she had been alive..."

Ye Gui Feng somewhat doubts that he would have even had the chance meet them. As a member of the Yao family this person would have been someone that he can only look up to from below.

"*Sigh* I wonder what her name even is..."

Each time Ye Gui Feng looks at the face of this person that Xiao Ju Hong had possessed he can't help but wonder about this.

After detaching himself from Xiao Ju Hong Ye Gui Feng rummages around in his storage bag and eventually brings out the coffin that he found in Ling Zang Mu's tomb.

"Since this thing was in there it must have a purpose but what?"

Ye Gui Feng inspects the entirety of the coffin from in and out but still found nothing. Eventually he finds himself laying inside of it.

"...I feel like a vampire..."

It was surprisingly cozy and comfortable inside to the point that Ye Gui Feng felt like replacing his own bed with this.

"Uh!"

But just as Ye Gui Feng is getting comfortable the doors of the coffin suddenly shuts. Ye Gui Feng presses and beats his hands on the doors of the coffin to open it but the lid wouldn't budge.

"Someone help me! I'm stuck inside a coffin! Xiao Ju Hong!"

Despite all of Ye Gui Feng's yelling and screaming no one will be able to hear him as his cave is locked. As for Xiao Ju Hong she shows no response to Ye Gui Feng's anxious voice of panic.

As Ye Gui Feng continues to beat on the coffin's doors the interior of the coffin suddenly lights up with pale green light.

This pale green light envelops Ye Gui Feng completely as his desperate struggle weakens. He can feel his entire body relaxing despite his unwillingness to do so.

"Wh-What's happening? Th-This...!"

The pale green light intensifies to the point of it being unbearable as Ye Gui Feng suddenly blacks out.

.....................................................................................................................

Time passes and within the coffin Ye Gui Feng's body had vanished.

"...Nn?"

The next instance that Ye Gui Feng opens his eyes he finds himself standing at the bottom of a giant mountain.

A massive set of stairs lead up to the top of the mountain.

"Wha-?"

Ye Gui Feng looks up at the tall gates that stand before a set of stairs.

On the top of the gate is a black board sign that had two characters inscribed onto it in gold, 妖家 (Yāo Jiā Translation: Yao family).

"Y-Yao... Family?"

All color is drained from Ye Gui Feng's face as he trembles and takes two steps back in fear.

Has the time come? Has the Yao family finally found him and had brought him to the front of their family gates through a special method of teleportation?

Ye Gui Feng fearfully looks up at the mountain. It was so tall that he couldn't even see the top of it.

Rings of dense clouds and mist cover the body of the mountain making it give off an awe inspiring presence of great authority.

"Th-This is the Yao family?"

This is the Yao family's home location, Tōngtiān Shān! (通天山 Meaning: Difficult to translation 通 means through, 天 the heavens, 山 a mountain, Mount Tongtian sounds weird but it's as good as it will get)

"Hey what are you doing!?"

Ye Gui Feng turns his head. He had been so dumbfounded by the situation that he didn't even notice that there was a giant crowd behind him.

The time of day is still quite early in the mornings where the sun had just barely risen to float in the skies.

"Eh?"

Ye Gui Feng looks back to find many faces dressed in commoner's robes. There were a few individuals dressed in something of higher class. Some of them are even cultivators. All of them are looking at him with sour faces.

"What?"

"Go up the mountain."

A practitioner dressed in a black set of robes with a demon's face stitched to the back comes up to Ye Gui Feng and gestures with his chin for the boy to go up the mountain.

"Uh... What's going on?"

"What's going on?"

The practitioner looks at Ye Gui Feng with a frown.

"What are you doing here if you're not here to become a servant of the Yao family?"

"Hah!?"

This time Ye Gui Feng is completely dumbstruck. Many possibilities went through his head. But the best explanation is surely...

(Don't tell me that the coffin had brought me into the past! Or wait... Maybe it just teleported me... Ah that doesn't matter it doesn't look like this person knows about the things that I've done so I should be safe. For now.)

Ye Gui Feng looks down at his own clothes. They were the same red robes that he generally wears in the Awakened Corpses Faction.

"C'mon there's people waiting behind you to have their go."

"Ah..."

Inwardly Ye Gui Feng nods as he turns towards the Yao family gates.

"Since I'm here anyways I might as well take a look."

Curious of what the mountaintops will look like Ye Gui Feng takes his first step onto the staircases of Mount Tongtian.
