Li Chang'an returned to his cave abode and continued his cultivation.
...
「A few days later.」
An unexpected guest arrived on Changqing Mountain.
The son of Xiahou Hong.
Xiahou Yu!
The last time Li Chang'an had seen him was at Pei Yingyao's Core Formation Ceremony, and at that time, he only had a Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation.
Seeing him again today, he was already at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Xiahou Yu hadn't come to find Li Chang'an, but rather Zhou Yunqiao.
He had known Zhou Yunqiao for a long time and was infatuated with her, but he'd never had a chance to get close before. Now, he finally had an opportunity.
"Yunqiao, it's not safe for you to stay here on Changqing Mountain. Come with me to Yellow Crane Mountain."
"Thank you for your kind offer, Daoist Xiahou, but Changqing Mountain is very safe. You needn't worry."
Zhou Yunqiao's tone was exceptionally cold, her expression keeping him at arm's length.
