“Do you remember the cult on Zitong Mountain?” He asked. Chu Lei nodded his head.

That day, when Dongfang Qingqi rescued Lady Dongfang from Mt. Zitong, the beautiful woman offered her hand in marriage to him to repay his kindness. However, Chu Lei and Master Rong were suspicious of her identity, and Dongfang Qingqi insisted on marrying her.

Although they have not had any children so far, Dongfang Qingqi does not care at all and only cares for her as if she were a precious treasure in his hand.

Recently, I heard that the remaining evil elements of the Zitong Mountain cult were again rampant in Qinshan Mountain, and Dongfang Qingqi sent more than a dozen disciples to eliminate them, and captured one of them alive.

When Chu Lei heard this, his eyebrows raised and he knew that the key was this man.

Dongfang Qingqi whispered, “I used some methods to force that person to tell the truth … do you know who Qing Rong is? She is not only a cult member, but also a figure similar to the goddess of the cult. Because of her beauty, she is regarded as a celestial goddess by others, and so they obey her. She is a beautiful woman whose biggest worry in life is getting old. She first wanted to cultivate immortality, but failed to do so, and heard from somewhere that using virgins to make medicines can fix youth forever, so … “

So, his wife is not only not an orphan from Zitong Mountain, but also the backbone of a cult. The truth has been concealed from the world for over ten years, but she has not even revealed a single flaw, and her subtlety is unpredictable and frightening.

Chu Lei frowned for a long time, and then suddenly got up. Dongfang Qingqi was slightly surprised, and asked, “What do you want to do?”

Chu Lei said, “The devil is perverting the way of life and everyone should be killed. You still want to protect her?”

Dongfang was silent for a long while before saying, “I’ll have to think about this for a few more days…”

Chu Lei sighed: “According to this, the disciples you drove away were all on their way to kill the remnants of the evil cult? You’re afraid they will spread the word, so you’ve driven them away…”

“It’s not that I am afraid of the truth leaking out, but worried that if Qing Rong finds out, it will be detrimental to them.” Dongfang Qingqi said in a low voice, “She is their Madam, so these children will not dare to disobey her orders. I have no other choice but to send them away.”

“Ridiculous, this hurts not only those who have been expelled! You’ve always done everything right. How could you get in such trouble! You have been married to that demon girl for more than ten years, so I don’t blame you for not being able to do it, but you should also think about what your master told you when he gave you the Island!”

He is not allowed to collude with the devil, and is not allowed to be seduced by beauty.

Dongfang Qingqi can now only give a silent bitter smile. Even if she is a great evil, in the end they have shared the same bed as a couple for more than ten years, and only a heart of stone could so easily kill someone like this.

Chu Lei said earlier that everyone should be killed, but it is only saying words, this is Dongfang Qingqi’s family affair, and he is not qualified to decide whether to kill his wife. But this is to give him a wake up call, and stop him from getting obsessed. Now that he sees him in such a distraught state, he can only sigh in his heart.

“Let’s go out for a walk, I haven’t seen the scenery of Fuyu Island for a long time.”

He patted Dongfang Qingqi’s back, “I won’t force you, there are some things you need to figure out by yourself.”

※※※

Ouyang, as the Steward of Fuyu Island, is very busy on weekdays. Occasionally, when he can steal a half day of leisure, he likes to go to a small hill on the island and sit under a tree to read a book or close his eyes to rest.

Today, he also had half a day of leisure and sat under the tree again, only this time he was not reading a book, but a very small piece of paper.

Who knows what was written on the note, but he was very much engrossed in it.

Suddenly, a white hand reached out from behind him and snatched the note away. He was stunned, only to hear someone charmingly laughing in his ear and saying, “Let’s see, what’s the big steward of ours reading so much about?”

He hurriedly got up and saluted, “I greet the Madam.”

The person was really Qing Rong, seeing him so respectful, she could not help but wrinkle her nose, “Acting old-fashioned again, the other day, you didn’t take it to heart.”

Ouyang is silent. It is obvious that the beauty in front of him is also helpless in front of his boring, gourd-like character, can only sigh twice and hold his hand, “You, you do not go. In the past, you were very good to me, weren’t you? Why are you leaving all of a sudden?”

Ouyang was silent for a long time before he said, “I’ve finished repaying the kindness, it’s time to leave.”

“What kindness? I owe you a debt of gratitude?” The beauty pressed against the man’s face, her eyelashes scraping against his ear, tickling and numbing.

Ouyang laughed bitterly, “Madam knows, so why ask again? After all, human beings and demons are different, I’ve been on the island for a long time and it’s not good.”

The beauty threw away his hand and said urgently, “You only think of his kindness to you! What is that grace? It’s just giving you a hand so that you don’t drown! Have you ever been half-hearted? But I’m true to you! My kindness to you, isn’t that kindness? Are you in such a hurry to leave?”

Ouyang falls silent again. He is always silent when he encounters difficult things.

The beauty cried for a while and then said, “If you want to go, take me with you! This place, I don’t want to stay a moment longer! I don’t care if you’re human or demon, I like you anyway! I’m coming after you!”

She is at her wit’s end. This man is a piece of wood, soft, but he won’t make a sound if you beat him, scold him, or molest him. This silence makes one mad with frustration.

Ouyang stared at the note that fell from her hand, on which only some odd symbols were drawn, which looked like charms.

He stared at it for a long, long time and suddenly said, “Okay, I can take you away.”

She was so startled that she finally opened her arms and hugged him tightly, choking on her sobs. “Are you serious? Will you really take me with you?”

“Naturally, it’s true.”

Qing Rong hugged him tightly, a dreamy glow on her face, and whispered, “I know you won’t leave me… Do you remember what you said when I found out your true identity?”

Ouyang said, “I am an immortal, and although I am a demon, I will never harm anyone. Moreover, with my power, it would be easy for me to harm you or the island master. I have come only to repay my kindness.”

Qing Rong smiled and said, “Yes, what you said that day, I always remember. Ouyang, you are better than all the people here… Those immortal schools, all day long dreaming of becoming immortal, but none of the methods work… Take me away, teach me how to cultivate, and we will become immortals together, never to be apart.”

Ouyang was startled for a moment and said softly: “You should remember what I said, it is not easy to become immortal. It is not easy to become an immortal. Many demons have cultivated immortality for thousands of years, but they only become human and can never go any further. Besides, you are not a demon, you are just an ordinary human being, are you sure you can become an immortal?”

“With you here, for you, I’ll be immortal.”

Her vows are always so simple and unconvincing. But who says vows have to be gorgeous and carved in stone?

Ouyang was silent for a long time and finally said, “Okay, I’ll take you with me, but you have to do me a favor. But you have to do me a favor,”

“You tell me.”

“There is a secret room underneath Fuyu Island. I hope you can help me find it. It’s of great importance to me.”

When he saw that she wanted to ask a question, he said, “Don’t ask any questions, and I’ll tell you everything after I take you away.”

Her face glowed with happiness, and she turned and ran away.

Was that happiness because of him, or because she could practice immortality?

Ouyang stood there for a long time, finally bent down and picked up the paper on the ground, rubbed it in his palm, and the paper turned into ashes, blown away by the wind.

He turned around and walked away, as if he did not see a figure standing behind a distant tree in the forest, which was fleeting.
