A quick journey through the stars

Xingyue was happy: "Okay, let's go." Then she ran forward. After a while, she turned around and walked in front of Lan Xichen, looking at him with a pair of eyes that seemed to be full of stars.

Xingyue chuckled and asked seriously, "Does it include food?"

Lan Xichen was stunned for a moment, then laughed from the bottom of his heart and said, "Who cares?"

half an hour later

On the road leading to the Cloud Recesses, Xingyue squatted on the ground without any image. Lan Xichen looked at Xingyue's exhausted appearance and felt a flash of pity in his heart. He asked with concern: "Miss, can you continue on your journey?"

Xingyue felt that her legs were almost powerless, and thought to herself, "Usually, I use teleportation for short distances, and use the Flowing Light Technique to travel long distances. It's too tiring to rely on my legs without using any divine power."

Then a sly look flashed in his eyes, and then he said pitifully: "Ben, my legs are a little weak, can you help me walk?"

Lan Xichen's heart softened when he saw this, and a hint of pity flashed through his mind: "If you don't mind, let me carry you on my back." After saying that, he turned his back to Xingyue and bent slightly, ready to carry her on his back.

Xingyue was delighted that she finally didn't have to walk. She said with embarrassment, "This is not a good idea. You must be tired too." But she honestly climbed onto Lan Xichen's back with her arms around his neck.

Lan Xichen felt the little girl's movements and thought of the rejection he had just said. A smile appeared in his eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he held Xingyue's legs with both hands and walked forward.

Xingyue looked at Lan Xichen's headband curiously: "Your headband looks quite unique. It matches your clothes very well and looks good."

As she spoke, a hand gently grabbed the end of Lan Xichen's headband, and the entire headband seemed to come alive, gently floating from Lan Xichen's forehead into Xingyue's hand.

Lan Xichen's body froze, his eyes filled with shock, but an indescribable joy welled up in his heart, so much so that his ears were tinged pink.

Xingyue apologized: "Well, Ben, I didn't mean to do that. I just pulled the tail of the forehead ornament, and then it fell off by itself, really."

Hearing Xingyue's words, Lan Xichen came back to his senses from the shock and tried to keep his tone calm: "It's okay, young lady, don't worry about it."

He put Xingyue down from his back and looked at her with expectation and seriousness in his voice, "Xichen, would you please give the headband to the young lady?"

Xingyue heard Lan Xichen's words and thought to herself, "I was planning to ask Lan Xichen where he bought this headband. I'm planning to buy one for myself too. After all, this headband is really beautiful."

Lan Xichen looked at Xingyue without answering, feeling disappointed and about to take the headband from Xingyue's hand, when Xingyue said, "Okay."

Lan Xichen revealed a smile from within, as beautiful as ice and snow just beginning to melt. He said happily, "Then, I'll help you tie it up."

Xingyue handed the headband to Lan Xichen, and Lan Xichen said gently: "I'm sorry." Then he took Xingyue's hand and carefully wrapped the headband around Xingyue's wrist.

Xingyue was confused: "Shouldn't it be tied on the forehead?"

Lan Xichen calmly changed the subject: "I don't even know the lady's name yet." As he said this, he tied the spare headband around his forehead.

Xingyue: "Xingyue"

Lan Xichen thought to himself, “There doesn’t seem to be anyone with the surname Xin among the Hundred Immortal Families. Could it be that Xin Yue isn’t from one of the Hundred Immortal Families?”

Lan Xichen: "Miss Xinyue, isn't she from the Immortal Sect or one of the Hundred Immortal Sects?"

Xingyue thought to herself, "How would I know what the Hundred Immortal Sects are?" But she said, "Yes, how did you know?"

Lan Xichen: "The surname Xin is very rare. Among the hundreds of immortal families..."

Xingyue interrupted: "Well, Ben, my last name is not Xin, Xing as in the sea of stars, Yue as in the rhyme of Yue. Just call me by my name."

Lan Xichen nodded with a smile and pretended to carry her on his back. Xingyue climbed onto Lan Xichen's back with a smile.

Xingyue was curious: "Oh, you just said that this forehead ornament is called a headband, right? What a strange name, but it sounds nice.

And the name of your house is also very nice, Cloud Recesses, isn't it called Cloud Recesses because it's built in mid-air?"

Lan Xichen thought to himself after hearing Xingyue's words, "Even if they're not from the immortal sects, people in the secular world should know the general situation of the Qishan Wen Clan, Gusu Lan Clan, Lanling Jin Clan, Qinghe Nie Clan, and Yunmeng Jiang Clan.
