Yun Yang grinned.

“You were the one who complained about recovering your original appearance before this and suddenly, you haven’t mentioned it at all. Can’t I be curious?”

Ji Lingxi snorted and tipped her chin high up. Resting her hands behind her back, she went forward skipping in joy but she spoke with feigned pride, “I’m actually worried for you. I’m afraid that my true face will enrapture you instantly. What should we do then?”

Yun Yang pursed his lips and replied softly, “This young master has met many people. These include absolute beauties, alluring femme fatales; I’ve met plenty of them as well. You, a mere young little girl, boasting that you’ll enrapture me… hilarious!”

“Whatever you say. I’m not letting you see my real face anyway. Try me if you can!” Ji Lingxi skipped forward with her arms behind her back.

Yun Yang sighed with a palm on his forehead, not answering her for a long time.

‘Try you? How do I do that? I’ll be put down once I try…’

When the both of them first met, Ji Lingxi was already wearing her disguise. Not only that, she was wearing a mask as well. When she moved to the Residence of Yun later, she was still wearing her face veil. It remained so until she left Tiantang City for the first time to search for Ji Lingfeng.

When she finally returned the second time around, it was pure coincidence that she was being pursued by Lei Dongtian. To avoid Lei Dongtian’s ulterior motive, she was forced to disguise herself as an ugly lady. When she moved to Yun Yang’s house, her disguise was not removed but was covered entirely by the herbs Yun Yang had given to her.

Prior to this, when the crises had been resolved, Ji Lingxi yearned to remove the disguise and was arduously searching for the antidote, but it was in vain. Now that the medicinal potency was near due, she was not in a hurry instead. Ji Lingxi had even prepared new herbs to disguise herself for the time when Yun Yang’s initial one was cured. She was not planning to see anyone wearing her real face…

No matter how intelligent and gifted Yun Yang was, he could not understand the psychology behind such a decision.

Did they not say that a girl would doll herself up for the one she liked? Why was this girl different from others?

“Lingxi, honestly, I can make a blend of the antidote easily,” Yun Yang said chuckling, “Look, I’m totally different with you. I don’t even know what you look like yet I’ve already liked you. I don’t judge a book by its cover at all!”

Ji Lingxi scoffed with skepticism written across her face.

“I’m not allured by beauty, did you not know?”

“Hmph!”

“Wash your disguise away. Let me see what my love looks like,” said Yun Yang, “We’ll definitely be separated when we first get to the Bound of Universe later on. I don’t want to not be able to recognize you when we meet afterward. Won’t it be a joke then?”

Ji Lingxi lifted her chin defiantly and replied, “Exactly what I planned would happen. When that time comes, I’ll seduce you with my original appearance. You’ll be a bastard if you actually fall for me!”

“And if I don’t?” Yun Yang pulled a long face.

“Then you’re not satisfied with me! You don’t like someone like me! What could I ask for when you’re not even interested in me?” Ji Lingxi answered in a matter-of-fact tone.

Yun Yang then asked cautiously, “Do you wish that I take no interest in you or do you wish that I’m a bastard?”

“Just be yourself. Whether you don’t like me or you’re a bastard, I’ll accept the reality of the situation. I’m not one who doesn’t resign herself to fate!” Ji Lingxi rolled her eyes.

“Ji Lingfeng! F*cking come out and look at your baby sister! Is there even a way to survive this? She’s forcing me into a corner!” Yun Yang moaned into the sky.

Ji Lingxi chortled happily.

“It’s useless even if you call for him. He has never dared keep me in check since we were young, what more now? Put me in my place yourself if you can!”

Yun Yang sighed in despair.

In spite of this, he was reluctant to give up. He continued to persuade and pacify Ji Lingxi, only to realize that all his efforts were futile. The maiden simply refused to comply. In the end, he could only give up.

“Never mind. I’ll show my face naturally when it’s our wedding night,” Ji Lingxi added with a flushed face.

Yun Yang muttered, closing his eyes, “By then… not only will I see your face, but I can also see other parts as well…”

His reply triggered Ji Lingxi’s rage that stemmed from absolute embarrassment, which led to a violent pursuit that stretched over hundreds of thousands of miles.

Currently, Yun Yang could not subdue Ji Lingxi by any means. Not only was his cultivation base lacking, but his argument was also flawed as well. If it were not for Ji Lingxi who remained rational and did not actually go all out… she would not actually escape from the crime of killing her own husband!

…

“Here - this is the Four Seasons Tower’s headquarters?” Ji Lingxi looked at the houses atop the high peak in disbelief.

As the base of the world’s top influential organization, the scale seemed rather plain. They were all average straw houses. A main house, a side hall, a kitchen - everything was no different than that of an ordinary citizen’s home. At most, the distance between each house was a little longer and they were located on a lofty cliff commoners could hardly come by.

When they finally arrived at where the Four Seasons Tower’s headquarters was located, they confirmed that there was a residence approximately every five hundred feet apart. There were yards, plants, halls, bedrooms, even kitchens and toilets in the residences; fully equipped, the structures looked like they were lived in.

Despite that, there was not a single person in these houses now.

The mountain was quiet, seemingly abandoned. A vague sense of desolation permeated the atmosphere. Some of the plants were growing silently in the houses as if waiting for the return of their owners.

“It’s unexpected that the Four Seasons Tower’s men were modest cultivators,” Yun Yang spoke with almost a sigh, “Speaking of which, though, how could they have become such amazing masters if they couldn’t withstand such bleak lonesomeness?”

“Good or evil, that’s the case for any master or proficient cultivator since the beginning of time.”

“In wishing for the ability that surpasses everyone else, one must pay a similar price!”

“The saying that being unrivaled is the most lonely, it’s the same if it’s spelled backward!”

“If no one in this world works as hard as you, then no one will gain as much as you!”

“Fair, very fair.”

Yun Yang gazed at the houses with a sense of peace.

“You’ve all passed, the grudges have come to an end. Rest in peace.”

…

Yun Yang spent two hours looking for the track-concealing formation that was set up in the area. When he pulled away from the last piece of the formation’s rock, there was an abrupt ripple in the sky.

As an abundance of spiritual Qi dissipated, a dark hole appeared in the air. A passage could clearly be seen on the inside but its destination was a mystery.

“Wait here, I’ll go in to have a look,” said Yun Yang.

“You - be careful!” Ji Lingxi replied nervously, “Who knows what trap Mr. Nian could have installed here - people like you are used to sparing a hand. Maybe this is where his last fatal strike lies…”

Yun Yang chuckled.

“Bingo. Mr. Nian’s final trap is here, but I’ll spring it safely. Don’t worry.”

“You knew? And you’re still risking it?” Ji Lingxi’s eyes bulged in horror and disbelief.
