He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

Ideally, she would give him some sweetness in front of her, but Senior Yun always said that when the two of them were together, they couldn't help but engage in dual cultivation, which always left them exhausted. That's why she often came to play with him.

Su Qiubei couldn't understand, but she was very happy to be able to go shopping and play video games with Senior Yun.

How could she possibly have any designs on the Sword Immortal?

"Oh..." the maid responded indifferently, changing the subject.

"That night I'll have them set aside a room for you to rest in."

"Thank you for your trouble..." Su Qiubei said with a complicated expression.

Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief, then asked:

"Then can I go talk to Su..."

"No, this is the head of the family's order. Young Madam, please don't make things difficult for us." The maid lowered her stance, but in reality, she put the young madam in a difficult position.

"Ah, this..." Yun Yi scratched his cheek and said helplessly, "Okay, I understand."

The little witch patted Su Qiubei on the shoulder and comforted her:

"Don't worry, even though we can't live together, it didn't mean we can't go to the hot springs together, right?"

"Let me tell you, the hot springs here are really comfortable, but you can't soak for too long, or you'll get drunk..." Yun Yi kept telling Su Qiubei about the time she got dizzy from soaking in the hot springs.

The maid leading the way twitched slightly. Actually, Old Master Chen had said that it would be best if the young mistress could soak in the hot spring with the young master, but if she went up and brought it up again, it would seem a bit presumptuous, so she had no choice but to give up.

……

……

The two were led to the central hall of the Neverland Villa.

Even Xiong Ba and Pang Hu were brought over.

Inside the hall, near the door, an antique-style, exquisitely carved dragon-shaped table for entertaining guests had been set up. At the far end of the hall, there were some altars and utensils that Yun Yi couldn't understand, as well as an ancient portrait.

This must be a magical artifact passed down through generations of the Chen family, and related to the Chen family ancestors. M.biQUpai.

In the open space outside, there was also a large incense burner with three sticks of incense sticks that were thicker than her arm.

The entire resort was shrouded in mist, making it seem like a celestial temple at first glance.

"Xiao Bai!?" Yun Yi looked at the person sitting to the side with surprise, wearing a pure white Taoist robe and with long hair tied in a Tai Chi bun.

It has a certain ethereal quality.

Su Qiubei started trembling again; yet another senior she couldn't see through.

“Yunyi… no, it’s better to call her sister-in-law here,” Xiaobai said with a smile.

"It's a pity Li Mei didn't come..." Yun Yi generously pulled Su Qiubei to sit next to Xiao Bai: "Let me introduce you, this is Su Qiubei, a vampire girl."

"Hello, Su." Xiaobai nodded slightly in greeting.

Su Qiubei stammered, "Hello, senior..."

"Senior...?" Xiaobai asked in confusion. Yunyi quickly explained, "Oh, she calls everyone she sees 'senior,' you'll get used to it."

Xiao Bai nodded and continued the conversation she had just had with Yun Yi: "I haven't told her my identity yet."

When do you plan to tell her?

Upon hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Xiaobai's eyes: "I don't plan to tell her..."

“Then…” Yun Yi was about to say something, but thinking of the scene that Xiao Bai and Li Mei would encounter decades later, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth: “Xiao Bai… you have to think it through. If you really decide to do this, then you will be deceiving her for the rest of your life.”

As a girl and Li Mei's best friend, Yun Yi didn't want her to be kept in the dark until her death.

Xiao Bai remained silent, perhaps struggling internally as well.

Yun Yi felt inexplicably sad, perhaps because she remembered that ten-year-long dream that she should have forgotten.

Xiao Bai shook his head, finally coming to his senses, and turned to Yun Yi with a smile:

“Sister-in-law, it’s too heavy to say this at Shun’er’s coming-of-age ceremony. Shun’er will definitely not be happy to see us like this.”

"Hmm..." Yun Yi nodded, looked around, leaned close to Xiao Bai's ear, and asked, "Xiao Bai, is Chen Shun's coming-of-age ceremony one of those cool ceremonies that you often see on TV or in comics?"

Xiao Bai's expression was somewhat complicated as she said, "Yes, there is, but... never mind, sister-in-law, you'll know once you experience it yourself."

Although Yun Yi was puzzled as to why Xiao Bai was keeping this a secret, as he said, he would know once he had experienced it himself.

Perhaps... decades later, her and Chen Shun's child will also have to hold a ceremony like this.

Getting familiar with it beforehand isn't a bad thing.

……

……

"Welcome everyone to Shun's coming-of-age ceremony..."

Old Master Chen Lu was dressed in a blue Taoist robe, no longer the leisurely figure he had been when Class 2 of the third year visited the mountain.

Su Qiubei looked down at it with stars in her eyes.

This...this is the true sword immortal...

The entire audience erupted in cheers when the protagonist, Chen Shun, appeared.

Yunyi clapped her soft little hands loudly until they turned red.

Of course, she couldn't understand what Grandpa Chen and Chen Shun were tinkering with, but she did understand one thing.

That's Chen Shun in his Taoist robe and Tai Chi topknot—he was damn handsome.

Especially that Taoist robe... I really want to drag him home and tear his clothes apart.

The first half of the ceremony was quite formal and solemn, including not only the handover of the position of head of the family, but also ancestral worship and other rituals.

But when all of this was over, and even Yun Yi could feel the atmosphere suddenly relax, when two maids appeared in the hall pushing a huge cake, she completely lost her composure.

Yun Yi stared blankly at the mountain-like cake, then turned to Xiao Bai and asked:

"Little White, that's a cake, right? It's definitely a cake!"

"It's...it's a cake."

"Why is a cake being served out of the blue all of a sudden?" Yun Yi was completely bewildered.

Xiao Bai looked at Yun Yi with a very complicated expression and explained:

"Sister-in-law, although today is indeed Shun-ge's coming-of-age ceremony, do you think it's possible that it's also his birthday?"

"Oh...oh, birthday..." Yun Yi suddenly realized.

"Wait, it's my birthday!!!!"

She suddenly grabbed her hair tightly and let out a wail.

Yes, it's Chen Shun's birthday. She should have thought of it a long time ago, but she didn't even prepare a gift!

On her birthday, Chen Shun always gave her many unique gifts.

For example, a custom-made action figure modeled after herself is still on her desk.

She would pick it up whenever she had a spare moment, dress it in some strange clothes she made herself, and pose it in some embarrassing ways.

He also frequently made Chen Shun imitate him, which led Chen Shun to often say things like, "If I give this figure to you, the figure manufacturer will lose money, and I already regret giving it to you."

But whenever she asked Chen Shun about his birthday, he would always say that he would tell her when it was almost his birthday.

And then... she forgot about it.

I only realized today that it's Chen Shun's birthday!

She hadn't prepared anything at all...

Oh no, now their relationship is unequal!

She couldn't accept that she liked Chen Shun less than he liked her.

But right now, she has nothing on her body except for these clothes.

The whetstone in the wooden box was also a gift to the Chen family in the name of the family, not a personal gift to Chen Shun...

The atmosphere of the banquet changed after the cake was served.

It was less of a coming-of-age ceremony and more like a large family birthday party.

Chen Lu cleared his throat and called out kindly:

"Xiaoyun, come here."

Yun Yi was overwhelmed with guilt and didn't hear Chen Lu's voice at all.

Chen Lu stroked his beard, craned his neck, and looked down.

Could it be that girl didn't come? No, wait, the people in the village just said she arrived...

"Yunnizi?"

Su Qiubei probably knew that the old sword immortal was calling her Senior Yun, so she secretly nudged Yun Yi next to her with her elbow.

"Senior, the Great Sword Immortal is calling you!"

Chen Lu was still shouting:

"My granddaughter-in-law? Where is my granddaughter-in-law? Where did she go?"

Yun Yi's face immediately flushed red, and she replied, suppressing her embarrassment and annoyance:

"Grandpa, I'm here."

"Brother Shen!"

"Ok!"

When Shen Changqing walked down the street, he would greet or nod to people he knew.

But no matter who it is.

Everyone's face was expressionless, as if they were indifferent to everything.

In this regard.
