Master, don't tease me, you can't handle three of them.

Write! He'll go write it right now!

Jingyou put his drunken rage behind him and, full of fighting spirit, prepared to begin copying the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.

Then, Jingyou discovered a problem.

He doesn't even have paper and pen! What's the point of writing anything?!

Well, now I still need to go out and buy things. It's so late, I hope there are still some shops open.

Jingyou straightened his clothes and took off his shoes, which he had put on backwards, and put them back on. After he finished tidying up, Jingyou began to observe his surroundings.

I hadn't noticed where I was. Is this the yard his brother just bought?

Wait! What is this thing?!

Jingyou stared wide-eyed at the cube-shaped "building" that was taller than him.

Is this the interior design style of this house?

Jingyou walked up to the strange building and picked a small flower stuck in it.

The flowers are still fresh...

By the way, isn't this courtyard unusually large?

Jingyou felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, until he caught a glimpse of something in the corner of his eye.

Those were the remains left behind when Jing Shu demolished the wall. The only small section of the wall left in the entire courtyard.

"!!!"

Jingyou looked at the ruins, then at the strange building in front of him, and an idea suddenly came to mind.

No way? !

Jingyou walked over, picked up a brick from the ground, and compared it to the bricks on the building.

Exactly the same...

Jingyou stared in disbelief at the blatant evidence. So, this thing was made by his brother?!

They tore down the wall and built this thing instead?! Why is he the one who's drunk, and his brother the one who's gone mad?!

Jingyou shook his head vigorously, shaking away all these outrageous thoughts.

Never mind! I'd better hurry out and buy some things, and quickly write down the mantra for calming my mind!

Jingyou channeled his spiritual power and vanished in an instant.

On the other side, after carrying Jingran into the room, Jingshu placed Jingran on the bed, gently took off Jingran's outer clothes and shoes, covered Jingran with a blanket, removed the soundproof barrier on Jingran, and then set up a new one in the whole room.

Jing Shu quietly retracted his fox tail and ears, cast a cleansing spell on himself, and then lay down on the bed next to Jing Ran.

Jing Shu pulled Jing Ran, blanket and all, into his arms, gently inhaling her scent, and slowly closed his eyes.

The next instant, Jing Shu appeared in the ancient jade.

"Hey~ who is this? What brings you here?" The Nascent Soul looked at Jing Shu who had suddenly appeared and said sarcastically.

If he hadn't been unable to defeat Jing Shu, he would have fought Jing Shu for at least three hundred rounds!

Jing Shu coughed lightly. He felt a little guilty about the nascent soul's strange tone, though not much...

"You promised you'd let me out eventually?! I've said it so many times since we were in the academy, I want to get out, are you really deaf or pretending?"

The Nascent Soul cultivator was furious. His master was so adorable, and he could only watch! He couldn't even say a word to him! Later, when his master got drunk, he wanted to build a tower with him! He was sure his tower would be even more beautiful!

Not to mention that his master is asleep now, and he really wants to hug his master while sleeping!

“I haven’t seen my master for a long time, so naturally I can’t give you the opportunity,” Jing Shu said frankly.

Even if he is the one with the Nascent Soul, it still won't work.

Jing Shu didn't speak, but directly conveyed his thoughts to the Nascent Soul.

The nascent soul snorted. How childish of him to be jealous of someone like himself!

"Speak, what do you want from me?" the Nascent Soul said irritably.

"I need your help." Getting back to the main point, Jing Shu composed himself.

"Help me find out exactly where the seal in Huacheng is located, and what its structure is."

"Why do you need this? Xue Niang will bring it up with you herself later."

The Nascent Soul cultivator was somewhat puzzled, not understanding why Jing Shu would go to such lengths.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, "You're afraid..."

Jing Shu nodded slightly, agreeing with the Nascent Soul's idea.

"No." The Nascent Soul refused decisively.

"Why don't you go yourself? Why do you just order me around like this, treating me like free labor? And then you keep Master company?"

"Dream on!" The Nascent Soul sneered, wanting to continue cursing.

"When you come back, I'll give you control of your body for one day," Jing Shu said calmly.

"But then again... well, it's not impossible."

Yuan Ying swallowed the curse words he was about to utter, and his quick change in attitude left Jing Shu somewhat helpless.

"Go first thing tomorrow morning, wear a mask, and don't let anyone see you."

“Okay.” The Nascent Soul agreed readily.

Having emerged from the ancient jade, Jing Shu tightened his arms around Jing Ran slightly and gradually drifted off to sleep.

In the latter half of the night, Jingran frowned, a voice echoing in his ear.

"Han Luo! Do you think you can escape? One day, you will come back to me on your own! When that day comes, I will crush your consciousness and make you disappear completely, never to be reincarnated again!"

Who? Who's speaking in his ear? Han Luo? But who is Han Luo?

Jingran fidgeted restlessly until she grabbed the clothes of the person next to her and smelled the extremely familiar scent of sunshine, at which point she calmed down.

Jingran's brows relaxed slightly, and she drifted off to sleep amidst the familiar scent and warm embrace.

Nothing was said that night, except for someone outside who was constantly writing furiously.

I searched for shops to buy writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones late at night, but they were all closed early. Left with no other option, I went to an inn and bought these items from the innkeeper for a hefty sum.

When they returned, they found leftover food still in the pavilion.

Jingyou thoughtfully cleaned it up. Seeing that there was still half a bowl of wine left, and smelling the aroma, Jingyou was tempted, but thinking about the embarrassing situation he would make after drinking it, he resolutely poured it out.

Jingyou had no idea that what he was pouring out was the priceless Drunken Immortal Wine, which he hadn't even had a sip of himself.

After finishing tidying up, he was quite moved, thinking that he was truly a hardworking and good younger brother.

Then, Jingyou lit another candle on the table and began to silently recite the Heart-Cleansing Mantra. But while his hands were writing the mantra, his mind was constantly racing.

His brother was just holding a man in his arms! And he even conjured up another brother's fox ears and tail. Was he trying to make that person happy?

My brother hasn't come out of his room since he went in. I wonder if he came out while I was away. If he didn't... hehe...

However, he didn't hear any strange noises. Could it be that his brother activated a soundproof barrier?

But doesn't my brother like Immortal Venerable Hanluo? How come he's being so ambiguous with someone else? My brother doesn't seem like the type to be a womanizer...
