“The Heavenly Dao… truly unpredictable!”
Yun Chuan murmured.
At this moment, Yu Bingqing walked over.
“Elder Yu.” Yun Chuan was still polite, as if he really was the “A-Yun” that Xu Jiao Jiao spoke of.
Yu Bingqing nodded, then said, “Jiao Jiao likes you very much.”
Yun Chuan was taken aback, then nodded and said, “I know.”
“Since you know, then I’ll be blunt. Although I’m not your opponent, if Jiao Jiao is hurt because of you, I will risk my life to seek justice for her.”
Yu Bingqing’s voice was cold, and her face was like a glacier that wouldn't melt for ten thousand years, causing the surrounding temperature to drop.
Yun Chuan was silent. He could hear from Yu Bingqing’s words that she had already seen that he had recovered his memory.
“I have had conflicts with your sect master.” He could only say that.
His feelings for Xu Jiao Jiao were very complicated. In the short ten years that he was seriously injured and lost his memory, Xu Jiao Jiao’s meticulous care for him greatly moved him.
Although he, Yun Chuan, was proud and thought highly of himself, he was definitely not a heartless person.
He didn’t want to hurt Xu Jiao Jiao, but he did have conflicts with Li Beifei.
He didn’t want Xu Jiao Jiao to be caught in a difficult position between him and Li Beifei.
Hearing this, Yu Bingqing sneered, “I can see that you have recovered your memory, do you think our sect master can’t see it? Then you underestimate our sect master too much.”
“Our sect master is not one to tolerate grudges because of Jiao Jiao. If he can not hold it against you, it means he doesn’t take your conflict to heart at all.”
After saying that, Yu Bingqing left. She was also going into seclusion. A thousand years had passed, and her cultivation had only advanced from the逍遥境 (Free and Unfettered Realm) to a Saint, while Li Beifei and the others were already Great Saint experts.
If she couldn't match their talent, she could only rely on hard work.
Yun Chuan stood there, thinking about Yu Bingqing’s words, then smiled bitterly, “I’ve become a petty person.”
“What petty person?”
At this moment, Xu Jiao Jiao, who had finished cleaning up the dishes, came out. She familiarly walked to Yun Chuan’s side and took his arm.
Yun Chuan was stunned, feeling his arm touching the woman’s soft area, and he didn’t know what to do.
Although Xu Jiao Jiao was petite, she was curvy and had a figure that was no less than his junior sister Xiaoyue.
When he had amnesia, Xu Jiao Jiao would often hold his arm like this, but now that his memory had returned, his heart was stirred.
“What petty person, you mean a kid? If you like, let’s have one!” Xu Jiao Jiao said boldly.
Yun Chuan came back to his senses, looked down at Xu Jiao Jiao’s delicate face, and smiled bitterly in his heart.
“Let’s go watch the sunset!” Yun Chuan said, avoiding Xu Jiao Jiao’s bold topic.
“Okay, whatever you say.” Xu Jiao Jiao smiled.
Yun Chuan looked at the well-behaved Xu Jiao Jiao and couldn’t help but think of Xiaoyue.
How great it would be if Xiaoyue could be as well-behaved and obedient as Xu Jiao Jiao.
The two walked through a forest path, then through a bamboo forest, and arrived at the cliff. At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the red light sprinkled on Jade Purity Peak, giving it a mysterious atmosphere.
Xu Jiao Jiao took Yun Chuan’s arm and sat on the edge of the cliff, resting her head on Yun Chuan’s shoulder.
“What a beautiful sunset.” She said.
“Yeah.” Yun Chuan responded softly.
Xu Jiao Jiao continued, “A-Yun, you will watch the sunset with me in the future, right?”
“Why do you ask?” Yun Chuan was stunned, thinking that Xu Jiao Jiao knew that he had recovered his memory.
“It’s nothing. I just feel that you are like the clouds in the sky, you won’t stay in one place. The world is your home.” Xu Jiao Jiao said.
Although she didn’t know that Yun Chuan had recovered his memory, after spending nearly ten years together day and night, she could still feel some subtle changes in Yun Chuan. This change made her feel a little uneasy, as if A-Yun would really leave her at any time, like the clouds in the sky.
“I…”
Just as Yun Chuan was about to speak, he felt his lips blocked by something wet and hot. His eyes widened, never expecting that Xu Jiao Jiao would actually kiss him forcefully.
Although Xu Jiao Jiao usually acted boldly, she always maintained a sense of propriety between men and women.
But today…
After a long time, their lips parted.
Xu Jiao Jiao lowered her head shyly, and said, “I don’t want you to promise anything. My talent is not as good as yours, and it is very selfish to keep you by my side. I only hope that after the clouds return to the world, you won’t forget Xu Jiao Jiao on Jade Purity Peak.”
Yun Chuan’s heart was greatly shaken. He wanted to speak, but he didn’t know what to say.
Only now did he realize that the word 'love' was more complicated than all the countless divine abilities he had cultivated.
“I’m going to settle some things. After I figure things out and think them through, I’ll come back to you.”
Yun Chuan finally said.
Xu Jiao Jiao stared blankly at him, with crystal clear tears in the corners of her eyes.
She wasn’t stupid, she could hear what Yun Chuan meant.
He had recovered his memory.
“Can you tell me your real name?” Xu Jiao Jiao asked.
“Yun Chuan!”
Yun Chuan replied seriously.
“Yun Chuan, A-Yun, it seems that my naming skills are not bad.” Xu Jiao Jiao immediately smiled through her tears. She didn’t want to become Yun Chuan’s burden.
“It’s not bad.” Yun Chuan smiled.
“Isn’t this also a kind of fate?” Xu Jiao Jiao said with a smile.
The two leaned against each other and watched the sunset until the sun completely disappeared into the horizon. Yun Chuan left.
Xu Jiao Jiao watched Yun Chuan’s leaving figure, and tears finally flowed uncontrollably.
“You have to come back to me.” Xu Jiao Jiao said loudly.
But Yun Chuan had already left very far away.
In the Sect Master’s Hall, Li Beifei was brewing tea. On the table were two cups.
At this moment, a figure entered the hall.
“You’re here? Sit!”
Li Beifei gestured.
Yun Chuan didn’t stand on ceremony and sat directly opposite Li Beifei.
At this moment, his temperament had changed greatly from when he was with Xu Jiao Jiao. That proud temperament had returned to him.
“You knew I would come?” He asked.
