“Hmm? Is it true that Yun’er lives in this mansion?” Xiao Xiao asked Duan Wu in surprise after they arrived in front of Su Fei’s house, and she then used her senses to look inside, but her senses were immediately repelled by Ling Xi. ‘It’s definitely not Madam Feng. Could it be that person is his master?’

Duan Wu nodded to her. “This is Su Fei’s home, but she is now one of his women, so Ling Yun and the others also live here.”

“Oh?” Xiao Xiao was even more surprised to hear that. Although she never met Su Fei, she knew more or less about her and did not expect that she was Ling Yun’s woman. ‘Sigh, he used to be so innocent, but he’s turned into a playboy now.’

“Do you-”

Before Duan Wu finished asking her, they had already seen Ling Yun run out of the mansion, and they quickly got out of the car to meet him.

Ling Yun then asked with a friendly smile. “How are you, Big Sis Xiao? I didn’t expect that you would come here all of a sudden.”

However, Xiao Xiao did not respond to him, and she quickly grabbed Ling Yun by the shoulders and brought him outside the city.

Duan Wu became dumbfounded at seeing them disappearing into thin air, and she let out a soft sigh. “Sigh, I hope she doesn’t do anything to him.”

After that, Duan Wu got into her car again and returned to the company.

Outside the City

After they arrived outside the city, Xiao Xiao let go of her hand and coldly asked him. “Why did you do that to Qing Ying? And why did you turn Duan Wu into a demon cultivator?”

“Has Duan Wu explained everything to you yet?” Ling Yun calmly asked.

Xiao Xiao nodded to him. “Yes.”

“Since you already know everything, why are you asking me that?” Ling Yun sighed softly before he continued. “Honestly, I didn’t like them initially, and our relationship was limited to sex partners.”

“Hmm?” Xiao Xiao frowned upon hearing that, especially since she knew that Duan Wu had been married before and Qing Ying also had a lover, but they became his sex partner instead.

Ling Yun then told her about the matters between himself and the two women in the past, and Xiao Xiao sighed heavily as he told her about Qing Ying’s actions against Tang Zhiyi.

Xiao Xiao chose to listen silently to him, but her expression always changed as the story progressed, and she looked at him in disbelief.

“At first, I wanted to let Qing Ying die because of Zhiyi’s matter, but I changed my mind and saved her.” Ling Yun still calmly explained everything to him. “As for Duan Wu, even though she tried to throw me into prison a while ago, I felt that she had changed a lot, and I didn’t want her to die, so I turned her into a half demon and half fairy.”

Xiao Xiao then spoke quietly. “You’ve changed, huh?”

Ling Yun shook his head. “I’ve never changed, Big Sis Xiao. It’s just that I have to adapt to my new life as a cultivator, and as a cultivator, I can’t be soft-hearted towards those who want to hurt me and my family, right?”

“What you say is true; we as cultivators must not be soft-hearted toward those who want to harm our families and us.” Then two daggers appeared in Xiao Xiao’s hands, one golden yellow like the sun’s color and the other snow white like the moon’s color.

“Sun and Moon Daggers!” Ling Xi, floating behind Ling Yun, exclaimed in surprise when she saw the two daggers in Xiao Xiao’s hands.

‘What’s so special about those two daggers?’ Lingyun asked.

Ling Xi sighed softly. “The two daggers are of immortal grade and are the inheritance of the fire dragon and ice phoenix. Anyway, you should take her as your woman, and she will be able to help you get stronger very quickly.”

Ling Yun frowned upon hearing her words. Xiao Xiao was like a big sister to him, and he had no feelings for her.

‘I-‘ Just as he was about to answer Ling Xi, Ling Yun suddenly felt a strong Qi pressing down on him, but Ling Xi swiftly enveloped him with her Qi.

“Yun’er, since you are a demon cultivator, you are now my enemy.” Xiao Xiao said as she pointed one of her daggers at Ling Yun. “Moreover, you have done such a thing to my two best friends, which is the second reason you are my enemy.”

Ling Yun was stunned for a moment, but then he burst out laughing. “Haha!”

Xiao Xiao frowned upon seeing that Ling Yun was still able to relax under her pressure. ‘How could this happen? He is unaffected by my pressure.’ ｂ𝚍ｎｏｖ𝚕．ｃｏｍ

“Indeed, I was the one who turned Duan Wu into a half demon and half fairy, but you are mistaken if you think that I am a demon cultivator.” Ling Yun spoke as he walked toward the dumbfounded Xiao Xiao.

After he arrived in front of her, Ling Yun lowered Xiao Xiao’s hands, who was still in shock to see him able to walk leisurely under her pressure, and he stood right in front of her with a warm smile. “I’m not a demon cultivator, and I’m still a human, but I became a little different, just like you. Aren’t you not a human yourself? But you are half fire dragon and half ice phoenix, right?”

“What are you really? How did you know about that?” Xiao Xiao muttered to herself, and she was still looking at him in a daze.

‘Cover us, Ling Xi.’

“Done!”

“To be honest, only my family and women know about my secret, but I’ve thought of you as my big sister since long ago.” Ling Yun then opened both his palms. “However, I can’t explain the details, so I’ll let you see it in person.”

Xiao Xiao’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the nine different colors of Qi at the tips of Ling Yun’s fingers, and her heart pounded hard. She staggered backward, her eyes focused on those nine qis, then she looked at him in confusion. ‘Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! What should I do? I never believed in fate, but now my fate had appeared as my great-grandmother had predicted.’

“What’s the matter with you? Is there something wrong with me?” Ling Yun asked as he gently grabbed Xiao Xiao’s shoulders.

“No… No…” Xiao Xiao shook her head violently; her heart and mind were in turmoil, and she pushed him with force, causing him to fall backward. Then she took out a small device, the same device that Feng Ruxue had given Ling Yun. After the portal opened, she quickly jumped into it without saying anything else to him.

“She really is a strange woman! At first, she wanted to kill you, but she suddenly turned 180 degrees, and now she’s running away from you.” Ling Xi spoke in annoyance, especially since she wanted Ling Yun to subdue Xiao Xiao, but now the target had fled.

Ling Yun just sat on the ground, and he continued to stare in the direction where Xiao Xiao had disappeared from. He knew her very well and judging by her reaction, he could conclude that her odd behavior just now had something to do with him. “What exactly happened to her?”

After that, Ling Yun stood up and returned to his home.

.

Meanwhile, Xiao Xiao, who had just run away from Ling Yun, was flying quickly towards a cave on top of a shady hill. When she landed in front of the cave entrance, she shouted loudly as she ran inside. “Great-grandmother!”

In the cave, a woman with very long red and white hair was sitting in meditation, and she was none other than Xiao Yulan.

Although Xiao Xiao called her a great-grandmother, she didn’t look old at all. In fact, she looked as young as her.

Unlike her avatar, Xiao Yulan’s aura felt so otherworldly; one could imagine being in another world if they were beside her. “Why did you come here in such a hurry, Little Xiao.”

Xiao Xiao gasped and sat down in front of her, and she tried to catch her breath as she spoke. “I… I’ve found the man in your prophecy, great-grandmother.”

Xiao Yulan immediately opened her eyes after hearing Xiao Xiao’s words, and it could be seen that her eyes were golden. And the cave’s interior suddenly became completely different from before; it became like outer space and was decorated with sparkling stars.

“You already know the identity of the possessor of the nine elements, huh?” Xiao Yulan spoke with a bit of surprise, then she started muttering softly in a foreign language, and her eyes shone brightly for a few seconds. “You discovered his identity faster than I expected, and it made the wheel of fate turn a little.”

“What do you mean by that, great-grandmother?” Does that mean my fate has changed too?” Xiao Xiao asked expectantly, and she hoped that her fate would also change.
