Fen Yue never doubted her father’s words.

Therefore, when the Variable Immortal Emperor mentioned that she would meet Fang Bai again in the near future, joy appeared on her face.

"Then I must continue my cultivation."

Fen Yue said seriously, "Although the time Uncle taught me was short, I feel I’ve learned a lot. I hope that by the next time I meet Uncle, my cultivation level will have greatly improved. By then, I will tell Uncle that I haven’t been lazy or slacking off; I’ve been diligently cultivating without bringing shame to his name. Hmm, Uncle will surely be happy, won’t he?"

When the Variable Immortal Emperor heard the words "lazy and slacking off," his old face flushed red. He tapped Fen Yue’s nose and said, "Lazy and slacking off... huh huh, is this girl hinting at something?"

Fen Yue giggled and said, "Father, I didn’t mean it that way; you’re the one sticking those words onto yourself! But Father, you shouldn’t keep being lazy either! I think Uncle Fang Bai seems to have high hopes for you! Besides, you’re Uncle Fang Bai’s sworn brother; as an elder brother, you should set an example for your brother!"

The Variable Immortal Emperor scratched his head and said, "Makes sense... alright, I will work hard on cultivation with you!"

Fen Yue suddenly thought of something, her eyes twinkled as she asked, "Father, what is the relationship between Sister Qin, who is always by Uncle Fang’s side, and Uncle Fang?"

The Variable Immortal Emperor laughed and said, "You little rascal, with so many clever tricks, can’t you tell what their relationship is? Let me tell you, she’s not Sister Qin; in the future, when you see her, you should call her Auntie Qin..."

Fen Yue pouted, her smile somewhat forced. She lowered her head and muttered, "So they really are immortal companions..."

Suddenly she looked up, her eyes shining with hope, and asked, "By the way, Father, male immortals in the Immortal Realm can have many immortal companions, right?"

The Variable Immortal Emperor was startled and immediately grew alert, widening his eyes as he looked at his daughter and said, "Why are you asking this? Let me tell you, Fang Bai is my sworn brother and also your elder; you two are not suited for each other... Besides, he is quite fickle, with many close companions... Hmm, you two being together wouldn’t be suitable..."

Fen Yue blushed and stomped her foot, saying, "Father, what are you talking about? I didn’t mean it like that!"

The Variable Immortal Emperor snorted and said, "Then what do you mean?"

Fen Yue lifted her foot and kicked a small stone away, saying, "I... I... I was just asking out of curiosity; you’re making such a fuss! I don’t like fickle male immortals... I’m not talking about it anymore! I’m going to the lakeside to cultivate!"

The Variable Immortal Emperor watched his daughter fly toward the lake, stroked his chin, and muttered to himself, "Next time I see Fang Bai, I must warn him in advance not to have designs on Fen Yue... She is his niece..."

......

"Ah...choo!"

Fang Bai, who was flying, suddenly felt an itch in his nose and couldn’t help but sneeze.

"Who’s speaking ill of me behind my back..."

Fang Bai rubbed his nose and said casually.

Qin Yaorao smiled and said, "Perhaps Ruhua and Rushi are thinking of you and mentioning your name!"

Fang Bai laughed and said, "I think that’s likely!"

Qin Yaorao glanced at him with her beautiful eyes and asked with a smile, "So, do you miss them?"

Fang Bai thought quickly, put his arm around Qin Yaorao’s waist, turned his head, and gently kissed her cheek, saying, "With such a beautiful female immortal by my side, I am too happy to think of them much!"

Qin Yaorao pinched him lightly and said coquettishly, "Smooth talker! If you were with Ruhua and Rushi, you would say the same thing, wouldn’t you?"

Even though she knew Fang Bai was speaking to please her, Qin Yaorao still felt a wave of happiness filling her heart.

"By the way, when we were in the Junior Immortal Village, I noticed you seemed a bit flustered. What exactly happened?"

Qin Yaorao suddenly asked.

As soon as Fang Bai heard her mention this, he put away his smile and said with some concern, "After we became immortal companions and cultivated together, the sensory connection between us became very strong. If any of you encounter danger, I will feel uneasy..."

Qin Yaorao deeply understood Fang Bai’s words because she also shared this sensory connection with him. The closer the distance, the stronger this connection; when too far apart, the sensation becomes very weak.

"If you can sense them, it means they aren’t too far from us. Who could be in danger?"

Qin Yaorao looked at Fang Bai, a trace of worry appearing on her pretty face.

Fang Bai couldn’t clarify who might be in danger, but he felt a vague sense of unease.

After aimlessly flying for tens of thousands of miles with Qin Yaorao, Fang Bai saw a group of dozens of immortals flying southward one evening.

Fang Bai observed them, noting that all these immortals were cultivating fire-based technique secrets, releasing a continuous aura of heat.

"May I ask, fellow immortal, where are you headed?"

Fang Bai sped up to catch up with the last of the group and asked with a smile.

The immortal, having a cultivation level only at the first rank Immortal King Realm, sensed the profound aura emanating from Fang Bai, knowing his cultivation level was much higher. He responded promptly, "Greetings, Upper Immortal. We are headed to Chiyan Mountain..."

"Chiyan Mountain?"

Fang Bai murmured this name, and suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed in his mind. He said, "It’s said that there are ancient feathers of Emperor Feng and Emperor Huang at Chiyan Mountain. Perhaps some immortals have discovered them?"

The immortal nodded and said, "Indeed! The word has spread throughout the Immortal Realm, and many immortals are heading there, eager for this opportunity!"

Emperor Feng and Emperor Huang were a demon clan couple from ancient times. During the epic battle between immortals and demons that occurred millions of years ago, they stood firmly on the side of the immortals, engaging in fierce battles, which led to their demise.

It’s rumored that their bodies ultimately merged into a single feather, falling into Chiyan Mountain. However, despite countless searches by immortals over the past millennia, it hasn’t been found.

Emperor Feng and Emperor Huang, both at the Immortal Emperor Realm, had their lifelong cultivation encapsulated in the feather, drawing envy from countless immortals who practiced fire-system immortal techniques.

Thus, when the news of the Phoenix Emperors’ feather appearing at Chiyan Mountain spread, regardless of its truth, it attracted numerous immortals.

The immortals seen here were just one group among many.

The emergence of the Phoenix Emperors’ feather made Chiyan Mountain a converging spot for many immortals during this period. Combining this with his own premonition, Fang Bai felt it would be wise to go there too, hoping to find a close acquaintance.

Immediately, Fang Bai and Qin Yaorao joined the group of immortals, traveling with them toward Chiyan Mountain.
