Chapter 66: Meeting Zhang Weiyun Again

Outside the Baihua Sect, Wang Yulun gazed at the palace floating in the sky and sighed lightly, feeling as if he had experienced a lifetime in just a moment.

He felt that he had never worked so hard to uphold his principles before.

“The hero couldn’t pass the beauty’s test, but I did!”

Wang Yulun said to the Baihua Sect disciples who had come to see off the exchange group. Yet, deep in his eyes, there was a hint of longing, like the unspoken feeling Tang Seng had when leaving the Kingdom of Women.

“Wang Yulun, in this life, we are not meant to be.”

“Before we part, can you hold me just once? After this, I’ll let go of this wish forever.”

A stunningly beautiful woman, her voice filled with sorrow and vulnerability, spoke to Wang Yulun, her heart heavy with resentment toward this seemingly cold man.

“A hug is too much; I’m a married man. Let’s just say our goodbyes here.”

During his time at Baihua Sect, he had kept Xu Fan’s words firmly in mind—he dared not even touch a woman.

But then, the woman seized the moment when Wang Yulun was off guard, throwing herself into his arms and holding him tightly. She then bit down hard on the side of his neck.

And just like that, a strawberry mark was etched into his skin, impossible to erase.

The Que Tian Sect disciples who were present couldn’t help but chuckle at the scene, finding a bit of amusement in their usually disciplined junior brother’s predicament.

Wang Yulun instantly felt all his previous efforts had been wasted.

“I…” Wang Yulun pushed the woman away, his anger flaring, but just as he was about to react, he noticed a Grand Elder from Baihua Sect watching him with a meaningful gaze.

“I’ve done nothing to wrong you. Why would you do this to me?” Wang Yulun’s voice softened, realizing he was on someone else’s turf.

“I just wanted to leave a mark that’s mine alone.”

“I…”

In the inner sect of Que Tian Gate, within the cave residence of the Grand Elder, the Mysterious Azure Elder sat sipping tea with a man in a blue robe.

“Elder, what brings you to Que Tian Gate?” the blue-robed man asked cautiously, not daring to offend him.

“I’ve brought a disciple to see her husband. Once that’s done, I’ll be on my way.”

“No need to keep such a close eye on me; the meager fortunes of Que Tian Gate don’t interest me,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said lightly.

“Besides, if I wanted to take them, could you stop me?”

“Haha, I wouldn’t dare think such a thing. It’s just that when an elder visits Que Tian Gate, it’s only proper to offer some hospitality.”

As he spoke, the blue-robed man poured another cup of tea for the Mysterious Azure Elder.

“Dao Rhythm Tea—you’ve gone to some trouble,” the Mysterious Azure Elder remarked with a smile, admiring the runes swirling in the tea cup.

“This tea is reserved only for elders of your stature.”

“Oh? Then bring another pot.”

The blue-robed man’s expression turned strained as he reluctantly prepared another pot.

Meanwhile, Xu Fan scratched his head, staring at the transformed Zhang Weiyun. How could someone like her master, a Great Ascension stage Sovereign, still care about a nobody like him, still stuck in the Qi Training Stage?

“Husband, I’ve finally found you,” Zhang Weiyun said, clinging tightly to Xu Fan and nuzzling her head against his chest like an affectionate kitten.

“I thought after you became a disciple of such a respected elder, you’d forget all about me,” Xu Fan said softly, gently stroking Zhang Weiyun’s head.

Beside them, Xu Gang and Xu Yuexian stood in awe as a fairy-like female cultivator rode an azure divine bird and flew over to find their master, only to discover that she was actually their own master’s wife.

“Have you seen your parents?” Xu Fan asked.

“Yes, Master said to bring my parents along this time so I can show them my filial piety,” she replied.

“Husband, come with me. We can have a few little babies and live happily together for a lifetime,” Zhang Weiyun said to Xu Fan earnestly.

Xu Fan looked at Zhang Weiyun, his gaze gradually softening, and gently stroked her face, saying, “You should focus on your cultivation right now. Besides, if I really leave, your master won’t be happy.”

“Once I succeed in my cultivation, I will come find you.”

At that moment, Xu Gang and Xu Yuexian walked over and bowed respectfully to Zhang Weiyun, saying, “Greetings, Master’s Wife.”

“This is my disciple from the mortal world. These siblings saved my life,” Xu Fan introduced.

Hearing someone call her Master’s Wife, Zhang Weiyun smiled brightly and quickly took out two bottles of Phoenix Blood Pills from her space ring and handed them to the siblings.

“This is a gift for meeting you,” Zhang Weiyun said with a smile.

Just then, a phoenix cry resounded in the sky. Zhang Weiyun looked up and said to Xu Fan reluctantly, “Husband, I must go now. I will come find you once I complete my training.”

With that, Zhang Weiyun flew up into the sky.

“Wait a moment.” Xu Fan took out a ring made of wood spirit crystal and gently lifted her right hand to put it on her finger.

“In our hometown, when a man personally places a ring on a woman, it means she truly becomes his wife.”

“Husband, I will miss you,” Zhang Weiyun said with red-tinged eyes.

“Hmm, I’ll wait for your return,” Xu Fan replied, feeling a bit reluctant. In that moment, he had already acknowledged Zhang Weiyun’s identity in his heart.

On the back of the azure divine bird, the Mysterious Azure Elder curiously asked his apprentice, “Why do you like your husband so much? He is just a Qi Training stage little cultivator and not very handsome.”

When Zhang Weiyun heard her master say her husband was not handsome, she puffed up her cheeks and replied, “My husband is the most handsome man under heaven; you must be mistaken, Master.”

“The first time I saw my husband when I was thirteen, I knew he was the one for me. I can only be his wife for my whole life.”

The Mysterious Azure Elder looked at the happy expression on his disciple’s face and smiled, thinking that with the Spirit body of great fortune, she should have a good outcome.

“Let’s go back and cultivate well. Once you reach the Core Formation stage, you will be able to go out and be with your husband.”

“Ah, how long will it take to reach the Core Formation stage?”

“Not long; if all goes well, it will take a thousand years, and at most two thousand years if it takes longer,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said.

“Master, aren’t you about to ascend soon?” Zhang Weiyun asked.

“The Great Ascension stage can be suppressed. I can stay in this realm for another two thousand years, and once I see you reach the Core Formation stage, I can ascend with peace of mind,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said, patting Zhang Weiyun’s head.

“Will I not be able to see my husband anymore after that?”

“Of course not! Your master is not the kind of person to break up couples. After you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you will have a month each year to visit your husband, provided your cultivation meets my standards,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said.

“Thank you, Master,” Zhang Weiyun said sweetly.

On the little hill, Xu Fan looked at his two curious disciples and said with a smile, “Make sure to keep the Phoenix Blood Pills your Master’s Wife gave you; they are precious.”

“No matter how severe the injury, as long as you preserve a trace of your true spirit, you can be reborn; they are lifesaving treasures.”

“I don’t have any.” Xu Fan’s tone sounded a bit sour.

At that moment, two bottles of Phoenix Blood Pills appeared in front of Xu Fan.

“Master, please keep them for us.” The two said sincerely.

“I’m not angry; I won’t fight kids for things.”
