"What's happening?"
Seeing his old friend with that expression, the elderly Taoist couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
This old friend of his had exceptional talent, his cultivation speed far surpassed that of others, how could his life not have been full of vigor and splendor?
And in the end, he ends up trapped by love?
"What else could it be? I dreamed of her again."
Xiao Junle wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, with a somewhat absent expression, for a moment even unable to tell whether what surrounded him was reality or dream.
"I told you not to drink so much. Right now your mind is not at peace, if you drink a lot and fall asleep, it's easy to dream. Dreaming of her is only torturing yourself, isn't it?"
The elderly Taoist sighed as he approached Xiao Leye, patted him on the back, and handed him a towel saying:
"Wipe off the sweat."
"All right."
Xiao Junle wiped the sweat from his face, and suddenly felt the towel had a faint but familiar fragrance.
Looking at it, he discovered that the towel had transformed into red lingerie with drawings of mandarin ducks.
This startled Xiao Junle, and just as he was about to ask his old friend where he had gotten that from...
He realized that the one beside him was not his old friend.
Wasn't that familiar smiling face Fang Meiyun?
"Darling, isn't this what you like most? If this isn't enough, how about I use this precious garment to wipe your face?"
The smile on Fang Meiyun's face had a twisted touch, she lifted her skirt and was about to use an underwear scented with the sea to wipe Xiao Junle's face.
"Get away!"
Xiao Junle instinctively launched a spiritual technique, and the next second he felt his body shake violently and woke up abruptly.
"Xiao Junle! Wake up!"
Hearing the familiar voice beside him, Xiao Junle snapped open his eyes and looked that way.
He saw an elderly Yun with a serious face standing by the bed.
Xiao Junle felt strangely relieved and, panting,
"I got a good scare, lately I really can't calm down."
"I told you not to drink so much. Right now your mind is not at peace, if you drink a lot and fall asleep, it's easy to dream. Dreaming of her is only torturing yourself, isn't it?"
The elderly Taoist sighed and handed Xiao Junle a towel.
"Wipe off the sweat."
"All right, I'll quit drinking soon."
Xiao Junle took the towel and wiped his face, but the moment his hand touched his face, it stopped, and his eyes fixed on the towel.
What towel? No way! It was clearly red lingerie with mandarin ducks!
"Darling, why don't you dry yourself? Do you despise me now? When you were young you kept saying you wanted to sleep with my lingerie on your face."
The elderly Taoist transformed again into Fang Meiyun, gently caressing Xiao Junle's face while speaking tenderly.
"Get away from me!"
Xiao Junle was so terrified he couldn't take it anymore, he pushed Fang Meiyun forcefully, opened the room door and turned into a streak of light flying towards the clouds.
He didn't stop until he was above the sea of clouds. Only then did Xiao Junle stop in the air and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
Since there was no fog covering it...
That full moon was huge and round, its white light bathed Xiao Junle's body, which calmed him a little.
Just as he was about to reflect on why Fang Meiyun had appeared...
The moonlight before his eyes began to grow increasingly intense, so bright that Xiao Junle was forced to close his eyes.
When that dazzling light disappeared, Xiao Junle opened them again.
The surroundings had returned to the previous room, the dim candlelight beside the bed flickered slightly, mixing with the moonlight coming through the window.
And sitting next to the bed was a familiar figure, it was Fang Meiyun.
At that moment she was already pregnant, and while holding Xiao Junle's hand, she guided it toward her belly.
"Darling, I'm pregnant with your child. Listen, our baby is moving."
"It can't be..."
Just as Xiao Junle tried to pull his hand away, several limbs began to sprout from Fang Meiyun's belly.
They grabbed Xiao Junle's hand tightly and even began dragging him toward her.
The smile on Fang Meiyun's face grew more and more frantic, the curve of her lips
was terrifying, and from her throat came a sharp and strange laugh.
"Die, die, die."
Xiao Junle was so scared that his soul seemed to have left his body. However, to his despair, he couldn't move despite his cultivation level.
Then a huge mouth appeared on Fang Meiyun's belly, with teeth white as snow shouting "Daddy!" and immediately bit Xiao Junle's hand hard, beginning to tear off pieces by biting.
The pain of flesh being torn alive
made Xiao Junle open his eyes abruptly and sit up in bed.
Around him was still the usual room.
But Fang Meiyun was no longer there.
A blue pearl floated in the room, radiating a soft blue light that fell on Xiao Junle's body.
The old man was fully focused, controlling that magical treasure.
Seeing that Xiao Junle finally woke up, he shouted loudly:
"Gather your mind, stabilize your soul in the supreme void!"
Xiao Junle, by reflex, followed his old friend's words.
Half an hour later, when he opened his eyes again, that terrifying feeling had completely disappeared.
His cultivation in the Integration Realm remained intact.
That greatly reassured Xiao Junle.
With still somewhat unsteady steps, he looked at the old man and smiled bitterly:
"If I opened my eyes again and found that all this was another dream, truly my Dao heart would break."
"Oh? And how do you know this isn't a dream, Darling?"
The old man's voice suddenly became sharp and feminine, causing Xiao Junle's face to pale.
He raised his hand, about to launch a technique capable of destroying heaven and earth.
The old man immediately raised his hand.
"Don't do it! It was a joke! If it were really a mental demon trying to harm you, why would I take out the Soul Stabilizing Pearl to help you?"
"Damn it!"
Xiao Junle withdrew his technique quickly, so furious he almost burst the old man's skull.
He was about to pee from the scare, and this bastard still thought of joking!
"Look at how scared you are! The invasion of a mental demon is truly terrifying. No matter how high your cultivation is, it's useless."
The old man smiled slightly, putting away the Soul Stabilizing Pearl, and said: "If I hadn't reacted quickly, maybe today you wouldn't have made it out."
"I'm not so easily caught by an illusion."
Xiao Junle's face darkened a bit more as he left that room that disturbed him so much.
Both walked to a small pavilion outside. The old man took out a tea set from his storage ring and served Xiao Junle a cup of spiritual tea.
The spiritual tea went down his throat and relieved Xiao Junle quite a bit, who said with a somewhat hoarse voice:
"Lately my situation is getting worse. Today I wasn't even asleep, I was meditating in bed, and yet I was invaded by a mental demon. Do you know what I saw?"
"What?"
"Fang Meiyun said she was pregnant, pregnant with my child."
"Wouldn't that be an illusion from the mental demon to scare you?"
Xiao Junle hesitated for a moment and then, with a gloomy face, said: "What worries me is that it's not."
"Hmm?"
The old man looked at his old friend.
"Hundreds of years ago, she and I left a love token under the ancient destiny tree. I suspect she has already recovered it and done something with it."
Xiao Junle put down the cup of tea and said: "I'm going immediately to check."
"Go quickly. If you find any clues, let me know. I will look for some of my old friends to help you. I don't think that damned woman, without even cultivation in the Integration Realm, can escape!"
The usually calm old man showed, for once, an authoritative side.
The Star Observers Sect doesn't seek conflicts, so it has many friends. Many great figures come to them for help.
As long as he asks, if Fang Meiyun doesn't have cultivation in the Great Ascension Realm, once caught, she'll be dead with no way out!!
