"Alright, alright, Iâm not teasing you anymore. Look at you, all nervous like a little child."
Lv Ruoxi also walked over, gently pinching Li Yunjingâs cheek.
"Uh... a child? A child who still drinks milk..."
Li Yunjing chuckled, giving a playful swipe.
The trio joked and laughed while tidying up their clothes.
Li Yunjing helped Yu Yunyi fasten her sash, his fingers inadvertently brushing over her delicate skin, causing her cheeks to flush. She playfully scolded, "Yunjing, you... If you donât want us to go out, then we wonât go out!"
"You two are just showing off your love and ignoring me."
Lv Ruoxi watched from the side, feigning jealousy.
As she spoke, she deliberately snuggled up to Li Yunjingâs other side, tightly wrapping her arms around his and resting her head on his shoulder.
"Alright, alright, you two little sweethearts, Iâm doting on both of you, okay?"
Li Yunjing was driven to laughter by the two girlsâ adorable act.
By the time the sun was high in the sky, they finally dressed and opened the door to head towards the courtyard.
When they arrived at the courtyard, Fu Chao had already been waiting at the door for quite some time.
Ever since Li Yunjing woke up and replied, Fu Chao had rushed over from his residence.
Unexpectedly, he waited from morning until noon!
"Old Li! Youâre really one to neglect friends when in love!"
As Li Yunjing opened the courtyard gate, Fu Chaoâs expression darkened, and he grumbled, "Iâve been waiting for a month! I almost thought you died of exhaustion!"
"Old Fu, thank you for waiting so long. This past month, nothing happened outside, right?"
Li Yunjing patted Fu Chaoâs shoulder apologetically.
He really had been inconsiderate this time, neglecting his buddy for a month without a word.
Even Li Yunjing felt a bit guilty and had to change the topic.
"Everythingâs fine, just been looking forward to you coming out. Iâm truly impressed by you guys!"
Fu Chao shook his head, seeing Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi emerge, he added with a hint of complaint, "Hey! You two look radiant, while my buddy almost became a worn-out ox."
"Hee hee! What nonsense are you saying now!"
"Exactly! Long time no see, Fu Chao!"
Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi also stepped forward to greet Fu Chao.
They were all familiar with each other, and after gathering in the pavilion and exchanging pleasantries, the atmosphere became harmonious. Fu Chaoâs irritation finally dissipated under the calming influence of Li Yunjing and the others.
"Fu Chao, have you heard any news about the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ outside?"
Li Yunjing asked.
Li Yunjing had two purposes in coming to âYouyue Countryâ, one was to find his woman, which he had now achieved, so naturally, it was time to discuss the second purpose.
This naturally involved plotting with Fu Chao regarding the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ.
Upon hearing the four words âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ, Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxiâs expressions grew noticeably more serious.
In the Southern Heaven Continent, the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ is a very famous secret realm, valued by all the powers.
The âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ has quite a background.
In the Southern Heaven Continent, there is a legend that the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ is an independent space established by an ancient powerful being, only appearing once every hundred years.
Each time it opens, celestial phenomena occur, causing a stir in all directions.
Every time the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ opens, the scene is practically a bloodbath.
Powers from all over the Southern Heaven Continent, countless cultivators, fight fiercely to seize the treasures within, from Foundation Establishment juniors to Nascent Soul powerhouses, all eagerly participate.
The entire âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ is divided into the Ninth Heaven.
It involves cultivators of various levels.
Notables have their places, while the less prominent have theirs. In short, as long as one is powerful among their peers, they can obtain the resources they desire from the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ.
The âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ not only contains rare spirit plants but also mysterious cultivation technique manuals, and even more, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures hidden deep within the realm that can enhance the quality of magical treasures.
If one could obtain them, they could significantly enhance the power of magical treasures.
Precisely because of this, every time the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ opens, powers vie fiercely, causing injuries and conflicts.
Of course, each time the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ opens, it is at a random place, hard to control.
This time, almost no one can predict where the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ will open.
Of course, itâs not without any signs!
In places where the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ is about to appear, the space will definitely be very fragile, sometimes even showing spatial cracks, and the environment between heaven and earth also differs from normal.
These omens can be identified by cultivators.
What Fu Chao had previously mentioned to Li Yunjing was actually about estimating the possible location where the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ might appear!
"According to reliable sources, this time the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ will open deep in the âEndless Mountain Rangeâ along the border of our âYouyue Countryâ and âRed Flame Countryâ."
"The opening time is in three months, although the exact date is not yet determined."
Fu Chao cleared his throat and said proudly.
This information was not easy to come by!
It drew not only from the âShenxiao Dao Sectâs intelligence, but also the Fu Familyâs information, not to mention relying on news from his big brother Fu Hengkong.
Fu Hengkong, who has long roamed the Southern Heaven Continent, has many friends and broad insights, naturally grasping certain secrets. Fu Chao integrated all these pieces of information and deduced this result!
"The depths of the âEndless Mountain Rangeâ have complex terrain and are teeming with demon beasts, already fraught with danger. Coupled with the gathering of various powers, this time entering the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ, we must make thorough preparations."
