“I used to eat here often; the wontons here are delicious,” Lin Yaoxie said.

“Is that so? Then I’m even more determined to try it,” Feng Qingxue said.

Soon, the waiter brought the wontons over.

"Please enjoy your meal, esteemed guests," the waiter said.

The wontons were just served, and they're still steaming.

Feng Qingxue scooped one up, gently blew on it, and then put it in her mouth and took a bite.

Chapter 45 Come Back With Me

"Mmm...this is so delicious! I could never get anything this good when I was in Youdu," Feng Qingxue said.

Then, she turned around and called out to the waiter, "Waiter, give me another bowl of wontons."

"Are you...are you sure you can still eat?" Lin Yaoxie stared at her with wide eyes.

"What's the big deal? It's just two bowls of wontons. I've already eaten for two days since I came here," Feng Qingxue said nonchalantly.

Then, the waiter brought over another bowl.

"Miss, please eat as much as you like. There's plenty here. If you still want more, just ask me for more," the waiter said enthusiastically.

However, it's normal for the waiter to be enthusiastic; after all, he's making money, so he can't just keep a cold face.

"Wow, this smells amazing!" Feng Qingxue exclaimed, then continued eating.

"Eat slowly, don't choke. By the way, what happened when you said you hadn't eaten for two days?" Lin Yaoxie asked.

He couldn't even stand not eating for two days, let alone a young woman.

"It's nothing, I just had a little argument with my mother-in-law," Feng Qingxue said.

"You shouldn't make your mother-in-law angry anymore. I think she's a very nice person. Although I haven't lived with her every day, I met her once before, and she seems very kind," Lin Yaoxie said.

"Sigh, I didn't say anything bad about her. Forget it, I don't want to talk about these things anymore. Anyway, we've made up now, haven't we?" Feng Qingxue said.

She finished her bowl completely.

After finishing his meal, Lin Yaoxie paid the bill and left.

"Alright, I'm going back to Youdu now. I'll come back to visit you later," Feng Qingxue said.

"Alright, I'll wait for you here," Lin Yaoxie replied.

In the blink of an eye, Feng Qingxue was gone.

Just as Lin Yaoxie was about to go back, he saw a familiar person ahead.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the person was actually Ling Yue!

Ling Yue was Lin Yaoxie's former senior brother. The two had a very good relationship back in Tianyong City.

However, after Lin Yaoxie left Tianyong City, he severed ties with Ling Yue.

Lin Yaoxie walked up happily.

"Ling Yue, what are you doing here?" Lin Yaoxie said.

Upon seeing Lin Yaoxie, Ling Yue was also filled with surprise.

“Demon, you… I never expected to run into you here. What a coincidence!” Ling Yue said.

“Yes, what a coincidence, I’m staying around here temporarily,” Lin Yaoxie replied.

Ling Yue hesitated for a moment, then said, "Demon, come back with me."

Lin Yaoxie remained silent. He naturally understood that when Ling Yue said "go back," he meant go back to Tianyong City.

But... now that he's already moved on, is there any chance for him to go back?

"Senior brother, I..." Lin Yaoxie didn't know what to say.

"Since you're still willing to call me 'Senior Brother,' it proves that you still care about me, Tianyong City, and Master," Ling Yue said, seizing the opportunity to persuade him.

Come to think of it, Lin Yaoxie has been away from Tianyong City for quite some time now.

He didn't know how Master Ziyin viewed him.

Lin Yaoxie thought about it and realized that he couldn't avoid what was coming.

So he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go back with you. But I need to say goodbye to someone first."

“Okay, then I’ll wait for you here,” Ling Yue said.

Lin Yaoxie walked back to the inn.

He knocked on the door.

Then, Ouyang Shaogong came out and opened the door.

"A demon?" Ouyang Shaogong exclaimed.

"Shao Gong, I've come here to say goodbye. I need to leave here and return to Tianyong City," Lin Yaoxie said.

Ouyang Shaogong hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then I wish you a safe journey. See you again when you have time."

If Xunfang hadn't come looking for him, he might have left with Lin Yaoxie, but since Xunfang has come to him, he won't leave her.

After bidding farewell to Ouyang Shaogong, Lin Yaoxie set off for Tianyong City with Ling Yue.

"Why didn't you leave with the demons and the others?" Xunfang asked Ouyang Shaogong after Lin Yaoxie left.

Ouyang Shaogong's gaze immediately darkened.

After a while, he turned his head and looked at Xunfang with a gentle expression, saying, "Because I want to stay and protect you."

Lin Yaoxie and Ling Yue walked in the crowd.

“Demon, it will take a long time to get to Tianyong City from here. Do you think we should take a boat back or something? I suggest taking a boat, because it's more convenient and faster.” Ling Yue stopped and said.

“Alright, I’ll do as you say, let’s take the boat,” Lin Yaoxie replied.

So the two of them boarded a boat.

Because time was of the essence, neither of them looked around carefully; they simply boarded the boat as soon as they saw it.

While on the boat, Lin Yaoxie enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the way.

But the thought of returning to Tianyong City soon made him a little nervous.

"Hey, fisherman, why are there so few people going out on boats here?" Lin Yaoxie asked casually.

Because their boat had already sailed very far, and they were still the only boat there.

"The weather is bad," the fisherman said coldly.

"What? The weather's bad? Why didn't you tell us beforehand?" Ling Yue said angrily.

Sure enough, the weather changed drastically shortly after the fisherman finished speaking.

"You... As a fisherman, shouldn't you have told us in advance that the weather was bad? Now look what's happened, you'd better hurry up and find a place to dock."

Ling Yue said helplessly.

"Don't you even look where we are now? Is there anywhere to dock nearby?" the fisherman said coldly.

The two of them looked around and realized that they were surrounded by seawater on all sides.

Lin Yaoxie suddenly had a very bad premonition.

Just as he turned around to ask the fisherman about the situation, he discovered that the fisherman had vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Ling Yue, have you seen that fisherman?" Lin Yaoxie asked.

Ling Yue turned around, his face full of surprise.

"Hey, where did they go? Weren't they just here a moment ago?" Ling Yue said.

Then the two of them started searching.

Lin Yaoxie ran into the boat, but there was no one there.

Lin Yaoxie recalled the events and realized that the fisherman seemed rather strange...

Suddenly, their boat began to rock violently.

One of them lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"Senior brother, something feels off," Lin Yaoxie said, then came to Ling Yue's side.

"We need to be careful," Ling Yue said.

The two men warily surveyed their surroundings.

Chapter Forty-Six Returning

Suddenly, a large purple snake darted out from under the water.

The two were startled and backed away.

"Evil spirit, be careful!" Ling Yue said.

Lin Yaoxie drew his sword and stabbed it at the purple snake.

The giant snake dodged.

Lin Yaoxie leaped forward. Then he said to Ling Yue, "Senior brother, you should row the boat further away first, otherwise, it will be troublesome if this giant snake capsizes the boat." Although Ling Yue was worried about Lin Yaoxie, what he said was indeed true, so he thought that he would row the boat further away before helping Lin Yaoxie.

"Then you'd better be careful," Ling Yue said.

Lin Yaoxie poured his spiritual power into the sword in his hand and then struck at the snake.

A sword pierced the snake's body.

Then, Lin Yaoxie drew his sword again and continued to attack the giant snake.

The giant snake opened its huge mouth towards Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie quickly dodged; he didn't want to become the giant snake's food.

"This damned water snake, it's time to teach you a lesson. Judging by your appearance, you must have caused a lot of trouble for others." Lin Yaoxie said.

The snake's body was exceptionally large; half of it was visible above the water, while the other half was submerged.

But we can deal with it.
