Chapter 4

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Zhao Lixuan said coming in. "Father, you know that too." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly. "I'm not worried about Yichen but Feiyu shouldn't leave. I have a bad feeling about this." Dongfang Qingyuan added worriedly.

"You can't keep locking him up. He has his own destiny to shoulder. You've messed up his destiny once. If you do it again. This time you'll be the one turned into ashes." Zhao Lixuan said coldly. "But..." Dongfang Qingyuan's words were cut off.

"A Yuan, he should have been reborn as a fairy just like Zhang Ruo Xuan but you used a forbidden technique to mess up that destiny. Because of that your own heart was destroyed and replaced by Qiongqi's heart. A Yuan, you only have one life." Zhao Lixuan said angrily.

"I know, I was born different because my father and mother came from different Realms but Feiyu is my only friend. I can't let my friend get hurt. Even if I have to sacrifice my own life." Dongfang Qingyuan said smilingly.

Zhao Lixuan was at a loss for words. "You're just like your mother. Stubborn!" Zhao Lixuan said leaving angrily. "He's been worried about you for a month. He's been guarding you." Bai Ruo Cheng said sadly. "I know. Even though I'm sleeping, I know he's accompanying me. But I don't want to lose anyone again." Dongfang Qingyuan said getting up.

"Prince, where are you going?" Bai Ruo Cheng asked worriedly. "I have to see Hua Xingrui. The Blood Moon plant has been successfully made into a pure energy flow." Dongfang Qingyuan said. Bai Ruo Cheng nodded.

---Cloud Island---

@Dongfang Qingyuan's old palace

Hua Xingrui stared at Dongfang Qingyuan in annoyance. Dongfang Qingyuan just smiled and saw the bottle of pure energy from the Blood Moon Plant continue to flow into Hua Xingrui's transparent body.

"You made this artifact with no small amount of effort, right? Are you tired of living?" Hua Xingrui asked angrily. "Because I want to live, I made this artifact. From now on, every plant I get will be put in this artifact to save more time. I have to go again." Dongfang Qingyuan said standing up.

"Where are you going?" Hua Xingrui asked warily. "Go to the Human Realms to pick the Snow Lotus that I planted on Flower Mountain." Dongfang Qingyuan said smilingly. "You planted it there. That mountain must have turned into a snowfield." Hua Xingrui said in disbelief.

"I set up a barrier there so the possibility of someone getting in is very unlikely and the snowfield is only in the clear lake on that mountain." Dongfang Qingyuan said smilingly before leaving. "Stubborn." Hua Xingrui said annoyed.

Dongfang Qingyuan walked looking at the sky smilingly. "Is the Prince leaving now?" Kang Min Tao asked smilingly. Dongfang Qingyuan nodded. "Take good care of him. I'll be back soon." Dongfang Qingyuan said smiling faintly.

Dongfang Qingyuan left in an instant. "I hope you can hold on longer." Kang Min Tao said sadly. Dongfang Qingyuan's body was getting weaker. Kang Min Tao could feel it.

---Human Realm---

°Flower Mountain°

On top of the mountain there was a clear lake that had pure spiritual energy that was suitable for the Snow Lotus Flower, so Dongfang Qingyuan planted the flower here. But Dongfang Qingyuan was shocked to see someone successfully enter his barrier.

The person was none other than the reincarnation of his disciple, Feng Yichen. Feng Yichen fainted near the lake. Dongfang Qingyuan entered and picked nine Snow Lotus Flowers. In an instant, the pile of snow disappeared. The barrier also disappeared.

Dongfang Qingyuan kept the nine Snow Lotus Flowers before carrying Feng Yichen on his back. If he was a little late, Feng Yichen would have frozen to death there. The two of them went down the mountain and arrived at an inn.

---inn---

"Is young master Liu okay?" asked a servant approaching Dongfang Qingyuan worriedly. Dongfang Qingyuan was shocked to see the face of the person in front of him. 'Murong Feiyu' thought Dongfang Qingyuan.

"He's okay. He's probably tired and needs to rest. Where's his room?" asked Dongfang Qingyuan. The servant who looked like Murong Feiyu took them upstairs. This inn consisted of two floors. The upper floor was for sleeping and the lower floor was for the restaurant.

@Liu Yue's room

Dongfang Qingyuan laid Liu Yue's body on the bed and covered him with a blanket. "What do you call yourself?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan looking at the servant who looked like Murong Feiyu.

"I don't have a name. Everyone calls me Xiao er" explained the maid. "Feiyu, that's your name from now on. I want to stay here for the night." Said Dongfang Qingyuan flatly. The servant named Feiyu smiled. "I'll take you to your room." Said Feiyu excitedly.

@Dongfang Qingyuan's room

"You seem to know the person from earlier." Said Dongfang Qingyuan looking at Feiyu who put food on the table. "Young master Liu, he has been staying here for a month looking for the Snow Lotus Flower. There is a fortune teller who said that this flower can cure all diseases." Feiyu explained.

"Does he have an illness?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan. "I heard that his junior sister has a strange illness. Besides, I've never heard of that plant here. But young master Liu said that it must be on Flower Mountain. Have you ever heard of that plant?" Asked Feiyu.

"I've never heard of it." Said Dongfang Qingyuan smiling. Feiyu nodded before leaving. 'Demon Realm wants to play with me.' thought Dongfang Qingyuan calmly.

Snow Lotus Flower will not be able to cure the disease but will freeze the patient to death. Especially when they are just ordinary humans. Snow Lotus Flower belongs to Ghost Realm and only people from Demon Realm know this.

Dongfang Qingyuan was fast asleep. Suddenly someone entered his room. Dongfang Qingyuan opened his eyes and saw the perpetrator's face very close to him. The person immediately retreated.

"You stole my Snow Lotus Flower. Give it back!" Liu Yue said angrily. "I don't know what you are talking about." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly. "I clearly saw..." Liu Yue's words were cut off.

"I only saw a young man fainted near the lake and even mentioned Snow Lotus Flower in his mouth. A cultivator was hit by a cheap illusion from the demon. How can you catch a demon if you can't even distinguish reality and illusion?" Dongfang Qingyuan said sarcastically at Liu Yue.

Liu Yue fell silent. His beautiful face showed deep sadness. "I heard that your junior martial sister is sick. Can you let me see her? I'm not good at it but I know a little about medicine." Dongfang Qingyuan explained. Liu Yue's face brightened after hearing it. Liu Yue nodded. 'Unlucky! Feng Yichen's effect is too great.' Dongfang Qingyuan thought irritably.

#The next day

Dongfang Qingyuan and Liu Yue sat at the restaurant to eat together. Liu Yue will take Dongfang Qingyuan back to his sect.

While eating, suddenly, some people came in to make a mess. Dongfang Qingyuan didn't care much but Liu Yue got up and helped. But because he was careless, Liu Yue almost got stabbed but the pain didn't come. Feiyu made his body a shield for Liu Yue.

Liu Yue caught Feiyu's falling body. Dongfang Qingyuan stared coldly at the bandits. The bandits ran away in fear. Dongfang Qingyuan approached Feiyu. Feiyu smiled seeing Liu Yue and Dongfang Qingyuan.

Dongfang Qingyuan's hand covered the stab wound and the black aura that was originally there disappeared. "Thank you, sir." Feiyu said before closing her eyes. "What did you do?" Liu Yue said angrily. "He couldn't be saved so I removed the corrosion from the demon in his heart. Otherwise, he would have become a living corpse." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly.

"They are clearly just humans. There's no way there is..." Liu Yue's words stopped because he saw Dongfang Qingyuan disappear in an instant. Everyone had run away during the fight earlier.

@hutan

"Fox demon, wolf demon and tiger demon." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly. The three bandits were silent seeing Dongfang Qingyuan in front of them.

"Who are you?!" The Fox Demon said angrily. "Why? You want to take the heart of a special human to offer to your master?" Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly.

"None of your business. Let's just kill him." The Tiger Demon said. "He's not the same as other human cultivators. We have to be careful." The Wolf Demon said. "He's not even human." The Fox Demon said warily.

"Is Wen Ke Xin okay? I haven't seen her for a long time." Dongfang Qingyuan said smilingly. The three demons froze. 'It really was that person's doing.' thought Dongfang Qingyuan. A wave of his hand, the three demons died with their heads cut off.

Liu Yue was shocked by this. Dongfang Qingyuan stared at Liu Yue flatly. The bodies of the three demons turned into black dust. "Who are you actually? Who is Wen Kexin too?" Liu Yue asked confusedly.

"She's my enemy. You must be surprised. They are originally from the Demon Realms, different from the demons in the Human Realms so of course you can't tell them apart." Dongfang Qingyuan said approaching Liu Yue.

"Demon Realm? Where is that?" Liu Yue asked suspiciously. "A very far place. Let's go back and bury Feiyu's corpse." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly. "How do you know his name?" Liu Yue asked confusedly. "I gave him that name." Dongfang Qingyuan said. Liu Yue could feel the warmth from the name Feiyu spoken by Dongfang Qingyuan.

---inn---

Someone checked Feiyu's corpse carefully. "Why is there no sign?" the person muttered. "You're the fortune teller. What are you doing here?" Liu Yue asked happily. The woman immediately became alert. "It's you, Liu Yue. Have you picked the Snow Lotus Flower?" The female fortune teller asked kindly.

Dongfang Qingyuan took Feiyu's body easily. "What are you doing?" the fortune teller shouted angrily. "Pei Xiahui, tell Wen Ke Xin. If she dares to touch someone she shouldn't touch then I will reduce her hiding place to dust." Dongfang Qingyuan said coldly.

The cold voice showed deep hatred. Liu Yue immediately moved away from Pei Xiahui and towards Dongfang Qingyuan. "Who do you think you are?" Pei Xiahui said arrogantly. An ice sword flew and scratched Pei Xiahui's cheek.

Pei Xiahui was shocked to look at Dongfang Qingyuan. 'Ancient Fairy Dongfang Qingyuan.' Pei Xiahui thought in fear. Dongfang Qingyuan carried Feiyu's corpse on his back. Dongfang Qingyuan and Liu Yue left the inn.

@ Feiyu's tomb

"Why did you burn him and freeze his ashes before burying him?" Liu Yue asked in confusion. "So that his body is not used for evil. The woman had the ability to revive corpses." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly.

"Are there humans who can revive other humans?" Liu Yue said in disbelief. "She's a demon, not a human. Then the Snow Lotus Flower she told you about. If you give it to your junior fellow disciple, what will happen is that your sect and your junior will freeze to death." Dongfang Qingyuan explained.

Liu Yue fell silent. 'Luckily I didn't find the flower. Otherwise I would be a sinner.' Liu Yue thought. Suddenly Liu Yue fell asleep.

"Why did you come?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan looking at Yuan Leyang. Yuan Leyang pointed at Dongfang Qingyuan's feet and Liu Yue nervously. "I've seen it. Why didn't Feiyu go to the next reincarnation?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan pointing at Feiyu who was squatting near Liu Yue who was sleeping trying to wake Liu Yue up.

"To be honest, the time hasn't come yet. So his spirit can't go to the next reincarnation. You have to take care of him and think of a way to break this red thread." Yuan Leyang said nervously. "Who is his soulmate in this life?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan flatly.

"His junior martial sister, Song Qian." Yuan Leyang explained. "I re-tie the two of them then it will be done." Said Dongfang Qingyuan flatly. "That's the problem, his junior martial sister already belongs to someone else." Said Yuan Leyang. "Forcibly severed by someone from the Demon Realm?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan.

Yuan Leyang nodded. "Who?" Asked Dongfang Qingyuan. "The fox demon you just killed." Said Yuan Leyang. Dongfang Qingyuan nodded. "Go back. I'll take care of it." Said Dongfang Qingyuan calmly.

"Aren't you angry?" Yuan Leyang asked nervously. "You tied him up because you had to so that Feng Yichen's reincarnation this time would be successful so I wouldn't be angry. If not for me, you would also tie him to Feiyu, right?" Dongfang Qingyuan asked, answered by Yuan Leyang's nod.

"Go back, keep talking in the shield so that Ruo Xuan won't find out, it's not a good thing." Dongfang Qingyuan said. Yuan Leyang smiled and left. The shield came off. "Where are you? Young Master Liu suddenly fell asleep while you were gone." Feiyu was clearly panicked.

"He'll wake up soon. What are you going to do from now on?" Dongfang Qingyuan asked. Feiyu was silent and felt strange. "You can see me and you can talk to me." Feiyu said in a panic.

"But you don't have much time left. About a month." Dongfang Qingyuan said smiling. Feiyu nodded. Sure enough, Liu Yue woke up. "Can he see me?" Feiyu asked pointing at Liu Yue.

Dongfang Qingyuan shook his head. "What's wrong?" Liu Yue asked confusedly. "I feel like you're too careless. Talking to me and suddenly falling asleep." Dongfang Qingyuan said.

"What's your name?" Liu Yue asked confusedly. "Zhang Qing." Dongfang Qingyuan said flatly. Liu Yue smiled when he heard it.
