The Hehuan Sect cultivates alchemy; my senior sister helps me refine alchemy throughout the world.

There is no river in front of the Looking-Home Terrace.

Shen Yifei looked for a long time but didn't see a single drop of water.

Just then, Shen Yifei heard a shout.

"Young Master Shen..."

The voice was soft and alluring; it was Thirteen Sister's voice.

Shen Yifei paused, wondering why Thirteen Sister had followed him. He wanted to turn his neck to take a look.

Su Huan wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, burying her face in his back, her voice muffled: "Young Master, don't turn around, don't look!"

Shen Yifei froze on the spot when she hugged him: "Su Huan, let go, it's Thirteen Sister..."

"Jin Jia said we can't turn back at the banks of the River of Oblivion. Have you forgotten?" Liu Mengli reminded her.

Shen Yifei then remembered Jin Jia's instructions: once they reached the River of Oblivion, no matter what sound they heard, they should not turn around.

"I won't turn around, just let go." Shen Yifei patted Su Huan's hand.

Su Huan then slowly released her grip.

When Thirteen Sister's voice stopped when Shen Yifei didn't respond, it changed back to Youlan's voice.

"Yifei, don't cross the river, something is waiting for you in the river..."

Shen Yifei endured it and did not turn around. He was not convinced that the person behind him was really his mother, but he was very curious about who made the voice and how well it sounded.

When Youlan's voice didn't work, it turned into Ye Ling's, and then Ao Xue, Xing He, Luo Qinghe... and a whole host of other women's voices came one by one.

The last sound was something Shen Yifei never expected.

It was Liu Mengli's voice!

Liu Mengli burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Master, this guy has run out of tricks..."

The thing behind, after hearing what Liu Mengli said, realized that it had learned from the original.

"You're the donkey, you're a donkey, you're a black donkey, a hairy donkey..."

Liu Mengli was about to retort when she suddenly noticed that a river had appeared on the previously empty flat ground.

The river was no more than a hundred meters wide, and the water was grayish-white, lying quietly between the Wangxiangtai (Viewing Home) Terrace and the three people.

Shen Yifei stared at the river, about to say something, when the thing behind him that mimicked human speech spoke again.

"Are you trying to say: How did this river come to be?" The voice imitated Shen Yifei's tone.

Shen Yifei still didn't turn around. There was a flapping sound of wings, and a dark figure appeared on a rock in front of the three of them.

The three of them looked and saw that it was a crow!

Its feathers were pure black and shiny, and its big, beady eyes darted around as it tilted its head to look at Shen Yifei.

Liu Mengli exclaimed in surprise, "It was just a crow!"

The crow immediately started cursing, "You little wench, you've got a sharp tongue! You just called me a donkey, but you're the donkey! You're a black donkey, a white donkey, a spotted donkey, a donkey's ass!"

Liu Mengli was stunned for a moment by its string of "donkey" words, then her eyebrows shot up: "You feathered beast, how dare you insult me?"

"I'm talking about you!" The crow flapped its wings, hopped twice on the rock, and swore like a shrew. "I've never seen such a shameless woman before! Your mouth is full of seductive words, you little slut!"

Liu Mengli's face turned green.

Seeing that Liu Mengli had been rebuffed, and that she had been calling herself a little slut all day long, only to be called a little whore herself, Su Huan couldn't help but laugh.

The crow immediately turned to her: "What are you laughing at? You're no better! You big-headed devil, following a living person all the way, even rushing over to hug them, your skin is looser than your belt!"

Su Huan's smile froze on her face.

"I...when did I hug him?"

"You haven't hugged him yet? Do you think I'm blind?" Crow's Wing pointed at Shen Yifei. "You just pounced on his back, hugging him so tightly, I saw it all clearly! If you hadn't hugged him, he would have turned around!"

Su Huan's face turned red and white, and she opened her mouth but couldn't utter a rebuttal.

Shen Yifei watched as the crow fought off two women single-handedly, holding its own against them, and couldn't help but laugh: "You crow, your beak is really something else."

"You call me a gossip?" The crow hopped around twice. "Kid, I haven't even said anything to you yet! You lecherous bastard, wandering around the underworld wearing a woman's dress! Look at your legs, you haven't even shaved them properly, and your pants are practically squeezing your balls off."

Shen Yifei looked at his skirt. There was no crotch at all; it was just that the skirt was too tight, making the outline a bit more obvious.

Shen Yifei looked down at his outfit, already feeling awkward, and Crow's comment made him even more embarrassed.

"Shut up!" Liu Mengli rushed forward to grab the crow.

The crow fluttered into the air and landed on a withered branch, yelling at the top of its lungs, "I won't close it! I won't close it! You dare to lay a hand on me, you little slut, you little bitch!"

"You want to get beaten up?!" Liu Mengli picked up a stone and was about to throw it.

Shen Yifei stopped her: "Alright, why get angry over a bird?"

Upon hearing this, the crow perked up: "You little shrew, what else can you do besides seducing men?"

Liu Mengli was so angry that she picked up a stone and started throwing it.

The crow fluttered up, dodging the stone, and landed on a higher, withered branch, its cry even louder than before: "You can't hit me! You can't hit me! You little donkey, come up here if you dare!"

Seeing that she had missed, Liu Mengli didn't know how to use any techniques on a bird, and she couldn't win an argument with it, so she was at a loss for what to do with it for a while.

Su Huan was also scolded by it, and her face turned ugly, but she wasn't as impulsive as Liu Mengli.

Seeing that neither of them was saying anything, the crow felt bored.

It tilted its head and looked at Shen Yifei for a while, then suddenly said, "Kid, who planted that thing in your soul?"

"Do you know the curse of the Time Demon God, Shi Yan?"

The crow's beady eyes darted around, then it suddenly let out a grating laugh: "Caw caw caw... Interesting, very interesting. This is the first time I've ever seen someone carrying Shi Yan's curse and still able to hop around alive."

"How do you know this is Shi Yan's curse?" Shen Yifei asked.

"Caw caw caw... croak croak... Kids, you two little sluts, in my crow's eyes you're no different from naked girls, otherwise..."

Wu changed his tone, "I can see right through you all." This tone was actually that of the golden-armored rooster.

Shen Yifei was about to ask more when Liu Mengli couldn't hold back any longer: "You stinking crow, asking all sorts of questions, what exactly are you?"

Upon hearing Liu Mengli open her beak, the crow immediately perked up: "What do you mean, 'what am I'? I'm nothing! Old..."

It paused, then realized something was off, and changed its words: "I'm a thing... no... I'm not a thing... you little wench, why do you start cursing as soon as you open your mouth?"

Liu Mengli wanted to continue arguing with it, but Su Huan pulled her back, saying, "It's too good at talking; we can't out-argue it."

Upon hearing Su Huan's words, the crow became overjoyed, flapping its wings loudly: "Yo yo yo, I admit defeat! I admit defeat! This crow's beak has never met its match. Let alone one against two, even if a dozen of you came, you wouldn't be a match for me."

Shen Yifei looked at the scene before him, feeling both amused and exasperated.

This bird is not only sharp-tongued, but even more terrifying is that it can see through a person's entire being!

This bird is useful!
