A gorgeous woman stood atop one of the towers of the ship, looking a little curiously at her finger, which was slightly burnt and blood trickled down from it to the hand.
“Hah, this is getting more and more interesting”
She said as she looked back to a tower where a young man exchanged a kiss with a beauty as a smile touched her lips.
—
“Thank you for fulfilling your promise, honey”
Wu Mengqi said with a smile as they ended the long and passionate kiss.
“I… you will have to thank Ye Ling for that then, since I almost broke the promise”
He said while wryly smiling, admitting the truth and she giggled.
“I will get the details from her this time”
“But, Mengqi, was there anyone in the room with you just now?”
“Hm? No… as I woke up you came in right after”
“…I see, that’s good then”
He smiled and hugged her, a pondering expression appearing on his face as he held her in his arms while his spiritual sense continued to search through the ship.

In the morning everyone gathered for breakfast as always, and Wu Mengqi arrived with a mischievous smile, which continued all through the meal. When she was asked she just mysteriously smiled and did not reply, making the beauties uneasy and Wu Long inwardly chuckle. Ye Ling looked at him, then at her and then slightly smiled while Wu Long slightly sighed with lament for Wu Mengqi’s triumphant plan.
As the breakfast came to an end and the Gong Sisters went off to spend the time on the upper deck as usual, the others remained as always to chat a little more in the private of the Dao Family.
“Um, I just had a thought, if Wu Long lived a new life this time, what was Wu Long’s first love like when he was young for the first time?”
Wu Mengqi asked prompting Cao Mei to almost spit out the tea she was drinking while the others froze.
“Ah… em… ahahaha… probably, s-simila-…?”
Hua Ziyan’s words trailed off and then she looked for support at Shen Min who looked back at her with innocent eyes of a lighter side.
‘She ran away!!!’
Hua Ziyan could not believe her friend just left her like that to hide in her shell.
“Uhm… not sure… hahaha”
Luo Mingyu also was slightly stuttering as her purple eyes darted to the sides.
“I don’t know”
Wei Lan just flatly said as she turned away, trying to hide the panic in her eyes.
“Um! Me neither”
Cao Xiang saw Wei Lan’s smart move and copied it right away to notice that her daughter next to her was concentrating on cleaning the spilled tea on the table, meticulously cleaning it up.
Wu Mengqi’s face was growing slightly unnatural as her shoulders were starting to slightly shake as Ye Ling wryly smiled and covered her face with her hand while shaking her head.
“Hmm? What’s u-ughm- up with you all? Are you hiding something from me?”
Wu Mengqi’s voice made a slight change with shakiness as she cleared her throat and continued with a ‘suspicious’ gaze.
“N-NO!”
Hua Ziyan, Luo Mingyu, Wei Lan and Cao Xiang loudly exclaimed at the same time, and then a panicked look appeared on all of them.
“I mean…”
“You know…”
“Haha, it’s just your imagination”
“Haha, that’s right! Imagination! You jus-…”
“Pu… puhaha… puhahahahahaha, I can’t anymore, ahahaha”
The jumbled choir of explanations that followed became quieter as they suddenly heard a tinkling laughter. 𝒊𝒃𝙧𝙖𝓭.𝙘𝒐𝙢
As they looked with dumbfounded faces at the laughing Wu Mengqi, Ye Ling sighed with a smile.
“It seems that Mengqi has awakened her memories, everyone”
She then said as Wu Mengqi held her stomach and fell to the side on the sofa she was sitting on, laughing as the others first showed a joyous light in their eyes, and then their faces reddened as they looked at the laughing beauty with eyes of “That’s cruel!”.
“That was cruel!”
And then someone actually voiced out their thoughts, and Hua Ziyan as well as Luo Mingyu turned to Shen Min.
“You don’t get to say that, turtle”
“T-turtle?!”
As the table was filled with laughter and joyous exclamations Ye Ling then looked at Wu Long who smiled back.
“Fyu~ but how come Sister Ling was so calm? Honey, did you tell her in advance?”
Wu Mengqi said as she calmed down and hugged the sisters who congratulated her.
“I did not”
Wu Long raised his hands in a gesture of innocence.
“I guessed it”
Ye Ling chuckled and the others looked even more embarrassed for some reason, since it would have been one thing if they were all caught in the prank, but completely another if someone in the same position as them just noticed and was calmly watching everyone panic by the side.
“Aww I wanted to see her flustered the most”
Wu Mengqi fell back to the side, laying on the sofa like someone throwing a tantrum amidst the laughter of the heavenly beauties.

As they traveled up the coastal line of the Azure Eagle Continent, they eventually made a stop in a large bay located between two peninsulas of the Tuamei Kingdom’s territory.
One side of the two landmasses was actually the coast of the Spiritual Land of the Yin Yang Unity Palace. Since the sect itself was located not far from the start of the Spiritual Land, they would need to travel through the inner parts of the Spiritual Land that were behind the sect to get to it.
The ship was left on an anchor as the group traveled through the Spiritual Land, collecting useful medicinal herbs and slaying demonic beasts on their way.
As the familiar mountain appeared in their view, the hearts of the Gong Sisters started to beat faster as the new future was uncovered before them. Shen Min and Wei Lan, as well as the Cao mother and daughter were also curious about the sect they only heard about.
At the same time Wu Long felt a powerful spiritual sense first lightly brush them and then lock on to them and smiled.
“We are home”
