Chapter 55 – Don’t Play with Fire
Qing Tu was far from Yun Cuo
Even after crossing the Jin River, they still had to traverse the wildernessXie Xi orried about Chu Yu being jostled toothe way, Xie Xi pinched and caressed little Chu Yu to his heart’s content
Chu Yu deeply regretted all the onist was a shotaWith an ionist to play with hi day this child will get used to his current childlike appearance, therefore, it will eventually lose its novelty
However, he hadn’t expected that when Xie Xi noticed that Chu Yu was not resisting, Xie Xi got even more excited and started to enjoy himself more and h he was indignant, he was powerless to resist so he sinore it1Xie Xi then lifted hiet a reaction
Each of them used their ultimate skill and, as a consequence, each had to reap what they had sowedChu Yu’s face was rubbed and pinched until it ollen and Xie Xi’s eyes turned redIn the end, Xie Xi lost
Chu Yu was satisfied
If he avoided thinking about the consequences, it was fun to see the protagonist so deflated
Half a month had passed before they arrived at Yun CuoA snowstorainst their faces like sand and pebblesThe ht
Although the deshi+ (translucent crystals with spiritual energy trapped within) vein in Yun Cuo, there were too h crystals so it was impossible to satisfy all of themIn the end, the distribution of resources was unevenThus, when a top quality Lingshi+ vein was excavated, a great war broke outWith their last dying breath, they used up all their hue array that locked in all of the spiritual energy near the Lingshi+ veinThe land that was enclosed in that large array was called “Ling Jing”2 Outside of Ling Jing was a vast, desolate wilderness
After a few days of traveling in the bleak outskirts of Yun Cuo, they finally reached a city
Well, it looked like a city but at first glance, it appeared to be desertedThe city walls were in ruins; the gates were decaying, and the city’s sign was blurry and hard to read
Chu Yu stared at the blurry calligraphy for a long while, trying without success to read it, but in the end, he had to give up
Despite the harsh environment and the fact that this was the de in this placeThey didn’t know if this was just their luck as newcomers or whether this was bad luck for those mortal residents
Chu Yu looked around as they entered the cityThe inside was as dilapidated as the outsideIt couldn’t cohteous Path cultivators’ territories that were all very prosperousHere there was only desolation and silenceThe few people they saw didn’t make any noise
This was a barren land under the demonic cultivators’ control and he feared that the few hEven so, these mortals all looked to be a bit more violent than ordinary people
Chu Yu, asn’t used to being in such a place that was full of such vicious undercurrents and antisocial behavior, leaned closer to Xie XiUnconsciously grabbing Xie Xi’s sleeve, Chu Yu whispered: “Hurry up and ask someone for directions”
When Xie Xi lowered his headWhen he saw the nervous expression that was present on that child who had a face like white jade with pink cheeks, a warm current see ently pinch Chu Yu’s little faceXie Xi nodded
Chu Yu rolled his eyes as he listened to Xie Xi say: “shi+xiong, do you really not want shi+di to carry you in his arms?”3
Chu Yu snorted
Xie Xi sighed in regret and casually looked around for someone to ask for directions
He asked a ed man, with an indescribable dark air and a numb expressionHe looked at Xie Xi coldly then at the cute little fishHis voice was husky and low: “You are outsiders?”
Xie Xie frowned, took Chu Yu into his arms and nodded
The man’s face was still expressionless as he carefully looked Xie Xi over“Your clothes aren’t like the clothes that the people from Yun Cuo wear” He paused, then seeThe expression on his face suddenly turned to one of shock“You’re a righteous cultivator?”
Chu Yu was keenly aware of the strange tone of his voice, which sounded like he was extre his head around to look at the people who had heard that sentence, Chu Yu suddenly felt uneasy
Xie Xie paused and nodded again, but his hand silently moved towards Duan Xue’s hiltChu Yu saw the situation and quickly grabbed Xie Xi’s hand
Although the ate and the ood, it was easy to see that all of these people were just ot too excited, one sweep of his sould be enough to leave the city without any living beings
“A Righteous Path cultivator?” Muttered the rihteous Path cultivator?! Just what are you doing here? All of Jing Ling’s cultivators have already left4 Do you still want to pursue them relentlessly and strike another blow? You clearly want to drive us to our deaths?!”
What? What? What is the situation?
Chu Yu looked confused
Why did it seehteous cultivators who started the war?
However, the other people all around didn’t give him time to mull it overWhen the people around the over what to do, heard the man’s roar they suddenly rushed over to swarm Xie Xi and Chu YuTheir faces twisted with hatred and wielding kitchen knives, they attacked with coth of mortals and cultivators
“Scrahteous cultivators, ps off! Leave Yun Cuo!”
“Get out!”
A and coether in a frownHe quickly picked up Chu Yu and rose abruptly off the groundChu Yu hugged Xie Xi’s neck and looked down at the people ere still angry and cursing at the righteous cultivator, he was somewhat speechless
If soht think, based on this widespread indignation and discontent, that the righteous cultivators had done so that was offensive to the heavens and human morality to the extent that it was now impossible for them to live under the same sky

Ah, but that could not be the case…
Norhteous cultivators and hostile towards demonic cultivatorsWhy was the situation reversed in Yun Cuo?
Could it be that these people ere under the control of the demonic cultivators had been brainwashed?
Perhaps to theood?
Chu Yu was puzzled by this unexpected situationAfter some consultation with Xie Xi, Chu Yu decided that they would fly directly into the heart of Yun CuoJing Ling was in Yun Cuo and though they weren’t familiar with this place, Chu Yu didn’t think that they would be unable to find it after searching for half a month and ten days
But… Now that he has shown his face in front of a group of ordinary mortals, then there was no doubt that the neill be spread that two righteous cultivators were asking about the location of Jing LingIt was highly probable that there would be de for them to enter now
Chu Yu’s got a headache and sighedHe decided to let Xie Xi beat up Wei Ciyin when they met
If Wei Ciyin hadn’t played such a trick on him then he wouldn’t have had to worry about the whole situation here and could have just stayed in the Chu family land in Jiao Xia
However, it was useless to think about it any et rid of his curse at Mei Yin ValleyWaking up the lord of Mei Yin Valley with the soul-calling bell was uni the curse
After leaving that gloomy city, they traveled over vast, snowy fields and bleak and lifeless mountains over the next few daysYun Cuo was barren and lacking in spiritual energy such that its climate was much worse than that of JinheThe deeper they went, the fiercer the snowstorms becameThe temperature had become much colder, too
Chu Yu stubbornly flew on his oordXie Xi was in a goodthe adorable spectacleWhenever Xie Xi tried to grab Chu Yu to take him into his arms, Chu Yu would use one of his talismans to burn Xie XiThus, Xie Xi had no alternative but to carefully guard Chu Yu, for he feared that he could be easily swept away by the snowstorms
After two days, Chu Yu was a little overwhelmed
His cultivation was currently suppressed because of the curse so he wasn’t able to control his spiritual energy properlyIf he was on his flying sword, it would be hard for hih the barrierEven if he was able to pass through the barrier to Jing Ling, his flying would beco to try to persuade Chu YuIt took a long time but Chu Yu, with a serious look on his sruntleduntil he realized that so with his body
Shen Nian had said that “it’s nothing, just a nuisance”
But what does this sentence really mean? What is “just a nuisance”?
Nearly a month after Chu Yu became a child, he finally understood what the “nuisance” was
Because he had becoth of physique of a cultivator
After two days of being in the midst of a snowstorm, Chu Yu was cold
After two days of being in the midst of a snowstorm, Chu Yu was cold
His interspatial storage bad had a lot of items that could heal internal and external injuriesThere were even items that could save his life one dayUnfortunately, when Chu Sheng prepared all of these items for him, he hadn’t expected that Chu Yu would be so affected by the coldChu Yu ru but all he could do was sneeze uncontrollably, his face red and his eyes strea with tears
It’s been years since he’s suffered from this type of minor inconvenience
This was a terrible time to suddenly become afflicted
Full of guilty feelings and heartache, Xie Xi hurriedly found a piece of land to camp in, he then put up a tent, and took out the layers of clothing that Chu Sheng had prepared and used them to wrap Chu Yu upHe didn’t quite knohat to do
Cultivators stand high above mortal concerns, aloof and remoteThey hardly knohat “hypothermia” is, thus they would hardly know of any way to alleviate it
Watching Chu Yu breathing hard, but not knowing how to help him, Xie Xi licked his lip and held Chu Yu close in his arly
He hated this feeling of powerlessness
Chu Yu was in a daze as he felt the burning cold invade his bodyHe reached out to touch Xie Xi’s face as a gesture of co Chu Yu’s feverish body te time, before he rose to his feet
“shi+xiong, I’ll get some medicine!”
Chu Yu quickly grabbed him and muttered for a while before he spoke clearly: “… Stay by my side, don’t leave”
Xie Xi went stiff in shockSilently caressing Chu Yu’s flushed face, he sat back down
Actually, there shouldn’t be any serious probleht not be the best at present, he wouldn’t die fro
Chu Yu settled down in Xie Xi’s arhed, took his wrist to start to transfer his spiritual power, then he closed his eyes and meditated
Outside the histled eerilySnowflakes whirled around so fast that the sound of the into the tent was clearly audible
Chu Yu was suddenly awakened by the sensation of heat
Xie Xi’s thick, heavy clothes eighing Chu Yu downSo many of them were layered over him that he felt quite uncomfortableIn addition, Chu Yu’s own clothes see his head sideways, he saw that his wrist was gripped tightly by Xie Xi’s handHe could feel spiritual energy being transferred to himChu Yu paused then turned around to look at Xie Xi’s beautiful faceXie Xi’s eyes were closed
Chu Yu was extremely uncomfortable and therefore he movedXie Xi woke up immediatelyHe opened his eyes and looked at Chu YuThe expression on his face suddenly changed
Chu Yu couldn’t tell if Xie Xi wasdesire in Xie Xi’s eyesChu Yu’s eyebroitched and he opened hisbut he was stopped short by Xie Xi’s kiss
Chu Yu was caught off guard and couldn’t react on ti his body were lifted and Xie Xi pushed Chu Yu down, spreading his legs apartXie Xi’s hand wandered doards, rubbing between Chu Yu’s legsLowering his head, Xie Xi kissed Chu Yu’s neck then nibbled his way down like a little beast

Chu Yu’s head was spinning but snapped out of it when he heard the sound of his robe being torn off and felt his body being exposed to the coldChu Yu breathed in the cold air then pushed Xie Xi awayHe said angrily, “Xie Xi, are you crazy?”
No matter how thirsty Xie Xi was, how could he lay a hand on Chu Yu when he looked like this?
Xie Xi was panting heavilyHis body pressing down on Chu Yu’s body, he wrapped his arms around Chu Yu’s neck and raised his headTheir noses touched, their lips rubbed against each other, and Xie Xi opened his roan
“shi+xiong, shi+di has been waiting for this for a long time”
Chu Yu was shocked“You’re saying…”
Chu Yu was silent before he finished speaking
