Exotic Valley

Mu Yu heard about the five million spirit stones bounty on his head for peeping on Miao Yuyan and kidnapping her at Sunny City. There was no shortage of people volunteering to capture him to avenge Miao Yuyan and collect the county. Portraits of him would blow into his face every so often.

“They’re never going to capture you at this rate. You’re nowhere near this good looking,” commented Xiaoshuai, checking out Mu Yu’s portrait.

“I look way better than that portrait.”

“Oh.”

“I have the drumsticks.”

“After a closer look, you do look better than the portrait,” Xiaoshuai opined, wearing his cute smile.

Dragon Vine: “Idiots.”

Despite his denial, Mu Yu had to disguise his appearance due to the semblance between his face and the portrait.

Mu Yu found his way to a murky building in a small, empty alley after querying where Ghost Gate’s posthouse was. The ghost qi didn’t bother him when he had Wood Spirit.

“Stop, this is Ghost Gate’s pl-”

Mu Yu slapped a piece of divine soul wood onto the Body Severing Realm Ghost Gate member and then did the same thing to the member’s backup. It was normal for weaker members to be tasked with guarding posthouses.

“Did Gui Ximing come here?”

“I don’t know who that is, but a Body Synthesis Realm guest did drop by three days ago. He left without saying a word, though.”

Gui Ximing couldn’t have warned his fellow sect members about Walk-in Heart Genesis’ robbery because it could change the events, thereby ruining his search. Since he didn’t tell them anything, Mu Yu had no leads to find where Gui Ximing had gone.

Third Continent wasn’t much different thirty-four years ago – neither did it fix Mu Yu’s lack of direction. Rationalising he would alert Ghost Gate if he kidnapped one of their members to lead the way, Mu Yu decided to find his way to Ghost Gate alone and, true to his gag, got lost again.

“How do you reckon the thief sneak into Ghost Gate? Sneaking past Ascension Realm cultivators and stealing a heavily guarded treasure is admirable,” commented Xiaoshuai.

“It might’ve been one of them,” the dragon vine guessed.

“I doubt it. They’d know who it is if an insider stole it. Moreover, judging from Gui Ximing and his twins’ reactions, they don’t seem to know who the thief is,” opined Mu Yu.

“Mu Yu, why did you go to Dad’s Valley?” Xiaoshuai exclaimed.

“No wonder why I thought the surroundings were familiar,” responded Mu Yu, hoping nobody would mention he found his way there by luck. “Well, since we’re here, let’s go pay him a visit.”

Eternally Youthful Ku Mu had yet to erect any formations in the valley. Therefore, it was quite the exotic valley.

“Has Dad not come here yet? Not even the celestial fiend tree is here. I guess we won’t get to see how Dad looked thirty-four years ago.” Mu Yu sensed an aggressive and strong presence in the distance as he prepared to leave. “It is Dad!”

Mu Yu set aside his urge to give Ku Mu a big hug, opting to hide in a tree instead for Ku Mu was with Miao Yuyan.

It was a waste of time trying to guess cultivators’ age as disguises and pills could easily manipulate appearances; it wasn’t really a topic cultivators wasted their time questioning much, either.

“I’m so not use to seeing Dad smile; he’s like a different man with that friendly smile.”

“Count me in. I’d prefer him looking stern,” voiced the dragon vine.

“This is the place you wanted to show me? It’s really nice. It’d be so blissful to live here,” giddily expressed Miao Yuyan, sitting down on a rock located on the mountain next to the valley.

Ku Mu nodded. “If. You like. I can. Change it. What is. Your dream. Home like?”

“Let me see… I’d like to live inside a big tree. I’d like to see a small bridge outside that crosses over that small lake. It’d be heaven to listen to birds singing and water flowing while I meditate under the tree!”

“Okay.”

Mu Yu sighed, thinking, Dad did everything she asked for, but he ended up living in the treehouse alone in the end. Miao Yuyan appears completely oblivious to his feelings.
