Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

The kitten woke up, and when the girl saw Yuehe, she beamed with joy, revealing her pink gums, which had no teeth at all.

This little girl is quite greedy. Her little paws want to touch her mother, Yuehe, and her toes want to touch Fengying. If she can't touch one side, she will rub against Chu Mingkong's chest. If she still can't reach him, she will pout and cry.

After Chu Mingkong had the cat lie still, he asked Yuehe:

"Since you reappeared in the world by binding yourself to a cat, why did you leave those words on the Sands of Time to remind me to come to the Heavenly Realm to wait for the Yin Time?"

Yuehe's slender hands were held by her daughter's two chubby paws. She gently stroked the toothless kitten's face and explained briefly and clearly:

"To get the cats from this period out of the cracks in time, we have to go to Moonlight Arakawa. It's the only way."

If you, Chu, create a Yin Time in the Heavenly Realm, then I, within that Yin Time, will inform you of this and remind you to come to the Moonlit Wilderness River and wait for the cat's monthly cycle of change.

Even if you're unlucky, you can always wait a few years.

Chu Mingkong said irritably:

"So this has turned into a mystical lottery... a mystical location, a mystical auspicious time to draw a cat. Speaking of which, doesn't this mean I have a chance to keep two of you?"

There was one at the hour of Yin, and there's one of you now.

While Fengying could certainly be considered one, it would make it seem as if Fengying was an appendage of Yuehe, so Chu Mingkong would try to avoid such a title.

Looking at this land and sky he hadn't seen for so long, Yuehe slowly replied as he gazed around:

"No, as soon as I appear, the Moon River in the Yin Time will disappear; we cannot coexist at the same time."

Fengying gently pinched the cat's soft toes, and asked somewhat confusedly:

"So, what is Yuehe's current situation? If it's not the Yin Time, then it must be his true form? But what about inside that starry jade coffin earlier..."

Yuehe begins his explanation with a question:

"Have you ever seen the goddess who protects the sky? I am like her, having infinitely sublimated my own soul to a level close to the goddess's origin, and then attached myself to the cat at this moment. But only the cat at this moment has my protection."

Feng Ying seemed to understand, but still pressed for an answer:

"Then why is it that only the cat at this moment has your presence? Shouldn't that red string be tied to her hand and accompany her as she grows up?"

"No, the gap in time is a very special place. It is different from all our understanding of the present world. It is bizarre and abnormal."

The cats' growth at every stage is vivid and real. If Mingkong had the ability, he could even bring out hundreds of cats of different ages and at different times.

Normal cause and effect will gradually fall apart in this process, but the cat is able to grow up in it because her cause and effect is incomplete and she can escape the rules. However, the red thread that binds me to her will eventually break down in her growth process.

But the cat that first entered the time gap was indeed bound to me, so only that very first cat truly had my presence.

Fengying felt confused, even though her brain wasn't slow, but she found it very difficult to understand Yuehe's words.

But she was still analyzing it using her own understanding, saying:

"So, according to your plan, Yuehe, when the kitten is 'exchanged' next month, you will also disappear, and you will only reappear when the kitten reappears?"

Yuehe did not deny it; he directly admitted it:

“That’s right, just like… that story Mingkong once told, the one about the clothes thief.”

Chu Mingkong felt that Yuehe really lacked a romantic soul. With a wry smile and a complex mix of emotions, he remarked:

"That's the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. In the end, they were separated, but they still had a chance to meet once a year. They met once a year through the Milky Way and the Magpie Bridge, and then they had to part again, waiting for the next meeting."

"Hmm, it's quite remarkable that a story that starts with stealing clothes and forcing a marriage can be developed into such a touching tale."

Chu Mingkong decided not to dwell on the story with her anymore, and his attitude became firm:

“Story is just a story. If I were the Cowherd, not only would I continue to force the Weaver Girl to stay, but I would also ruin the Queen Mother who set the rule that they could only meet once a year!”

I'll do whatever it takes to get Yuehe to stay.

What's your idea?

"I don't know, but I have a clear idea of ​​what's going on!"

"You say you don't know, but you also say you know the thought process?" Yuehe found Chu Mingkong's behavior a bit puzzling.

"This time I won't waste a single moment pondering it. I'll go directly to ask the Queen Mother of the West what to do, and get it right in one go, without doing anything in vain!"

Yuehe and Fengying fell silent at the same time. They couldn't quite understand why Chu Mingkong could confidently say something that was equivalent to "If I were to think about it, I would be wasting my time."

While this could be seen as self-awareness, their sheer aura was undeniably amusing.

They chatted for a long time, but the conversation showed no signs of stopping. It was hard to imagine that Yuehe, a man of few words and a tendency to be awkward, could keep them talking for so long.

However, the setting for the three people and one cat to chat changed from sitting on the ground to chatting while traveling on flying swords.

"Mingkong, when Yuehe has her second wedding soon, which group will she be in? The group of elders? Won't that make her a much higher seniority?"

Yuehe was speechless at Fengying's words; otherwise, how could she be considered a junior?

"It's all about the same. I think you should ask Qingse and Shizun's darling what to do. They're your peers, but this time it's the elders' turn to get married. Won't they come back and put pressure on you because of your seniority?"

Feng Ying had completely forgotten about this, and sighed in rare annoyance:

"It seems I shouldn't have agreed to marry you last time. I should have waited until the next round. It turns out Qiu Chi had been planning this all along, trying to gain a higher seniority."

I thought she was just shy!

Upon returning to the Kunlun Dao Sect, Yuehe's return caused a stir, though most were delighted.

Although Yuehe was a bit aloof when she last interacted with everyone, Aunt Gu and the others could understand that everyone has a different personality. They couldn't force their quiet family members to become chatterboxes just to create a lively atmosphere.

The most important thing is for family members to get along well; if there's any coercion involved, the atmosphere changes.

　 Of course, the most surprised person was Grandma Basheng. She knew about Yuehe and Mingkong's relationship, after all, their daughter Maomao was right there.

But knowing something is one thing, actually seeing it is another.

Once, Ba Sheng even followed in the footsteps of Empress Yueqi and went to the Heavenly Realm!

In the blink of an eye, this ancestor from the river of time appeared before him, and even became his grandson's wife...

Mingkong alone accounts for a great deal of the world's strangeness.

In particular, Gu Jun Gui and the others are now even discussing wedding attire with Yue He, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Chapter 311 Balan's Bewitching Test

Yuehe has returned, and their interactions seem largely unchanged, remaining as peaceful as ever.

This was exactly what Chu Mingkong wanted to see. If Yuehe was treated too politely, it would only make them feel distant.

This laid a solid foundation for their time together in Xiling.

However, back then, Chu Mingkong was single-mindedly focused on getting Yuehe to move around and interact more, but now he's just leaving it to fate.

There's no need to force yourself to get together and chat enthusiastically; that's not the only sign of a good relationship. A nod or a casual glance when you bump into each other during a walk is enough.

After Yuehe returned, Chu Mingkong tirelessly went to Yaoji and the others to choose an auspicious day, and finally selected a pretty good one.

"Then let's go with this date. I'll inform Qingse later and have her instruct people to make some arrangements in Jiuxiang Town."

Currently, all the materials are ready and arranged; all that's needed is to transport them there.

Since Qingse's Immortal Treasure Pavilion is now built on Immortal Island, once Immortal Island flies to Wine Fragrance Town, the preparations will be basically complete.

Yao Ji feigned melancholy and said softly:

"Alas, I never imagined that the first great task I would take on after Her Majesty appointed me as the Queen Mother of the West would be to serve as the master of ceremonies for Your Highness."

From now on, when the sect's historical records mention me, my resume will become less impressive.

Would those elders in the Taoist sect who compile historical records dare to spout nonsense? Chu Mingkong is well aware of the character of historians.

He placed the pig's trotter under Yao Ji's veil and gently stroked her delicate face; Yao Ji did not flinch.

Chu Mingkong looked into her beautiful eyes and said in an annoyed tone:

"I'll be shameless to say it, but from now on, the records will mostly say, 'The powerful ruler of Jiyuan has always valued the friendship of the Daoist sect and respected Yao Ji's virtue and prestige, and invited Yao Ji to personally preside over the important matters.' In any case, it will be written from the perspective of highlighting your status. Besides, I will also appear at your enthronement ceremony to support you and show my support. This can't be considered losing face, can it?"

Although Yao Ji is now the leader of the sect, and other disciples call her the Queen Mother of the West, Chu Mingkong finds it difficult to distinguish who is who by this title, so he sticks to the custom.

After all, the way people address each other on his side has always been incredibly chaotic, with everyone calling each other by their own names.

"If Your Highness dared to be so disrespectful to Yaoji in front of Nongyu, that would be wonderful~" she teased with a light laugh, then asked, "Is Your Highness going to see the Queen Mother of the West now?"

"You guessed it all. It's true. You also need to talk to her about something?"

Chu Mingkong looked at her in surprise.

"No, that's not it. I just wanted to chat with Her Highness, but I couldn't find her. I could only ask His Highness if he had any such plans."

"Alright, then come with me."

Upon hearing this, Chu Mingkong nodded in understanding, but in case Nongyu felt that he was giving Yaoji special treatment, he still invited Nongyu along as well.

Mother is not by his side all the time now, because since Yuehe returned, Chu Mingkong has been going out less often and has mostly stayed in the Kunlun Dao Sect.

Meanwhile, Niangye would sneak around and play with the baby within her "range of activity."

It seems they've all shown up in front of Yongzhen, but sometimes when the babies are being taken care of by their aunts, Mother will go to Jinyu and ask her to bring the babies over for her to play with.

Chu Mingkong had reason to suspect that his mother had initially contacted Jin Yu in order to get her to help bring the children over to play together!

......

Chu Mingkong, accompanied by the two women of the highest status in the Daoist sect, went to find the Queen Mother of the West.

She still smelled of the babies' milky scent, probably because she had just had Jinyu return the babies.

Chu Mingkong suggested that Yao Ji and the others talk first, but Yao Ji seemed to prefer staying by the Queen Mother of the West's side rather than having anything important to discuss with her.

In the end, it was Chu Mingkong who started the conversation. He explained that his purpose in coming to see his mother was to see if he could persuade her to come to the wedding banquet, change into a festive red dress, walk with him, and maybe even hold his hand.

But with something this big, we definitely need to use a diversionary tactic first, and talk about something else.

"My goodness, don't you think Yuehe is being a bit too roundabout in her actions? She said that she reminded me to go to the Heavenly Realm to find Yin Shi because she, in Yin Shi, could enlighten me to go to the Moonlight Wilderness River to draw a cat in the lottery."

"Why didn't she just tell me that directly? She went through all this trouble."

Chu Mingkong, without any proper sitting posture, lay directly on the Queen Mother of the West's plump thighs. Her soft flesh and her faint fragrance silently penetrated into Chu Mingkong's senses.

The woman explained helplessly:
