Jiang Hao let out a sigh as he looked at the beast, which was in a very bad condition.

The beast still had some dignity.

Hong Yuye never targeted anyone but the beast. It was admirable that it survived the encounter every time.

“Senior.” Jiang Hao turned and respectfully bowed.

Hong Yuye was dressed in a red and white gown. Her hair fell down her shoulders and chest. She looked elegant and classy.

She was just about to say something when an urgent voice sounded from behind.

“Beast! My meat bun!”

Xiao Li even kicked her blanket away, and it flew away from the bed.

Jiang Hao sighed helplessly. Did she only even dream about food?

Hong Yuye looked at Xiao Li and took a step forward. Then, she covered Xiao Li with a blanket.

In her sleep, Xiao Li sniffed. “Senior Sister…” She was half awake and in a daze. “How old is she this year?” Hong Yuye asked.

“She’s supposed to be nineteen,” Jiang Hao said.

The age of dragons differed from that of humans.

Xiao Li had never changed even after all these years.

She was the same as when she first entered the sect. She hadn’t grown at all.

“She hasn’t grown mentally nor physically,” Hong Yuye said.

Jiang Hao was helpless. He had only requested Xiao Li to stay out of trouble and not cause any commotion.

More importantly, it depended on the beast.

Currently, Xiao Li was growing well. She was fearless in the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

The most important thing for her was food.

Jiang Hao looked at his chest and realized that the One Heart Palm had disappeared.

The purpose of this palm technique was for Hong Yuye to travel long distances.

From the south to the east, the distance was great. Even Hong Yuye found it difficult to cross it.

That’s why the One Heart was left on him. It allowed them to travel together.

However, it seemed like this palm technique could only be used once.

Suddenly, Jiang Hao thought of something.

If he was married to many people across the north, west, east, and south, would it be easier for him to travel great distances with the help of this palm technique?

Would it be even more convenient than the golden rings?

He wanted to learn this technique.

Just as Hong Yuye was about to turn away from the sleeping Xiao Li, Xiao Li grabbed her hand in her sleep and hugged it to her. “Mom…

Jiang Hao was a bit worried. Even if Xiao Li didn’t do that intentionally, it was easy for Hong Yuye to get riled up.

“Are you worried about her?” Hong Yuye didn’t pull her hand away. She just turned to look at Jiang Hao.

“Xiao Li is young. She didn’t mean to offend you, Senior,” said Jiang Hao.

“Has she remained by your side after her parents died?” asked Hong Yuye as she looked at Xiao Li.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “Not exactly. After Xiao Li’s parents died, the beast stayed with her and comforted her. I’m not good at that, so I couldn’t do much for her.”

Xiao Li tightly clung to Hong Yuye’s hand and didn’t let go.

Hong Yuye moved a bit closer to her.

“Why would someone like you stay in a demonic sect?” Hong Yuye gestured for Jiang Hao to stand beside her.

“Senior, you must be kidding,” said Jiang Hao. “That doesn’t have anything to do with where I am.”

“You’re easily influenced by emotions,” Hong Yuye said calmly.

‘Emotions?’

Jiang Hao thought of Xiao Li’s old parents, who were struggling with their health. They held on and waited for Xiao Li to return home every time.

He also thought of Lin Zhi’s mother. Even though she was suffering from a serious illness, she traveled dozens of miles to get a protective talisman for her child. She bore the burden until she heard the good news. After that, she finally let go.

He thought of his stepmother and his family.

Though his memories of them weren’t very vivid, he was determined not to forget. Regardless of whether they were kind or harsh to him, he wanted to see them again.

He didn’t even know why he wanted it, but he wanted to see them one last time anyway.

Jiang Hao shook his head. “Senior, you must be joking.”

His weaknesses were too obvious, and for him, that was a disaster. Hong Yuye glanced at him in front of her and didn’t think much of his lie.

“Were you just thinking about the palm technique on your chest?” she asked.

Jiang Hao didn’t answer.

He was thinking about it, but he didn’t dare voice his thoughts.

“The technique is called the One Heart Palm. Do you know the conditions for activating it?” Hong Yuye asked.

“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head.

“The One Heart Palm requires a relationship between a man and a woman for it to activate successfully. To use it, you just need to leave an imprint on the body, like I did earlier,” Hong Yuye said.

Jiang Hao didn’t respond. He already knew all of this.

“Are you thinking that once you learn this technique and have a relationship with many women, you can go anywhere?” Hong Yuye sneered. “Why do you think it’s called the “One” Heart Palm and not the “Many” Hearts Palm? If you have a relationship with a second person, the One Heart Palm can’t be used. So, once you’ve mastered it, you can only use it on me. Do you still want to learn

Hong Yuye smiled sinisterly.

Jiang Hao lowered his head and didn’t answer.

He did want to learn it. If there was danger, he could immediately go to Hong Yuye.

Even if she was too terrifying and might be unpredictable, she was his safe bet. If he was on the brink of death, going to Hong Yuye would undoubtedly provide a way out.

However, earning it was one thing. Leaving an imprint on someone else’s body was another.

Hong Yuye had left an imprint on his chest. He didn’t dare do the same to her. That would turn out to be deadly.

With a sigh, Jiang Hao also gave up on the idea of learning it.

Red Yuye didn’t say anything either. She just watched Xiao Li.

After a while, Xiao Li finally let go of her hand and went back to dreaming about food.

Hong Yuye pulled her hand back and disappeared with Jiang Hao.

“Ahhhh! ” The spirit beast wailed and held its face in pain.

Then, it looked around.

“Beast, what’s wrong with you?” Xiao Li was startled awake.

“I thought the Master was here,” said the beast.

“Where?” Xiao Li looked around but didn’t see anyone.

She sniffed again but didn’t smell anything.

She looked at the spirit beast. “Your face is swollen again.”

“That is a favor from an acquaintance. The master must be nearby.”

Jiang Hao had already arrived at the street.

The place was brightly lit. It was a city that never slept.

“Star Moon City. It’s near the Bright Moon Sect. It’s said that many sects gather here,” Jiang Hao said.

“It’s busier than the cities you’ve visited before,” Hong Yuye said.

Indeed, it was bustling. Jiang Hao was amazed. The streets were paved with jade and stone, and towering pavilions filled the area. Everything looked beautiful.

The entire city seemed to have formed naturally, and its grandeur was impeccable.

It looked very festive. The city was truly remarkable.

“Where do you plan to go, Senior?” asked Jiang Hao.

“Go where?” Hong Yuye looked at him with a smile. “Haven’t we hung out before?”

Jiang Hao was momentarily stunned. Were they just going to observe and not get involved?

That was fine too, as it wouldn’t affect his plans for later.

However, her sudden appearance had disrupted his arrangements a bit. He needed to find a place to buy some tea first..
