The story of "Covering the Sky" begins with checking in with the Void Emperor's Blood

Upon learning that their parents were still alive and unharmed, Ye Fan and Pang Bo were relieved.

But when the detailed information from the other side came through, they were completely dumbfounded.

Ye Fan is doing alright; his parents are still alive and well. Apart from being a little down because of Ye Fan's disappearance, they are otherwise fine.

But things are interesting with Pang Bo.

According to the findings of Chen Yu's subordinates, everything at Pang Bo's house was fine.

Pang Bo himself was at home, perfectly fine, and everything seemed normal.

This result made Pang Bo somewhat uneasy.

He clearly followed the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin to Beidou, but now there's still one of him in the house?

He is absolutely certain that he is the real person; there is no doubt about that.

Then a new problem arises.

Since he himself has come to Beidou, then who is the person at his home?

"That's really a strange thing."

Upon learning that his family was alright, Ye Fan was in high spirits and even had the mind to tease Pang Bo: "Pang Bo, do you have a twin brother? You've been keeping it a secret from me all this time?"

"Go away, stop fooling around."

Pang Bo's feelings were complicated: "Whether I have a twin brother or not, others may not know, but surely you do?"

"So who's that in your house?"

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"

Pang Bo was bewildered by the situation at his home and didn't know what was going on.

"That seems to be a demon."

Chen Yu said, "There is a faint demonic aura on the other party, so it should be a demon in disguise."

"However, judging from the current situation, the other party doesn't seem to have done much; they're just pretending to be you and living a quiet life in your place."

"Demon race?"

Pang Bo immediately tensed up: "There are demons on Earth too?"

"Since there are cultivators, there must also be demons."

Chen Yu spoke up: "That's not surprising."

"The key now is how to handle this matter."

"Should I send someone to warn them and expel them?"

Before leaving Earth, Chen Yu also left behind many contingency plans, mainly to protect his family.

Although their methods were not as effective as Chen Yu's own, expelling a minor demon was still not a problem.

"Never mind."

Pang Bo looked conflicted. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Since that demon race hasn't done anything bad for so long, let's leave it at that for now."

"It's fine as long as my parents think it's me, and I don't want to cause them any trouble."

Pang Bo's choice was somewhat unexpected, but also reasonable.

After all, now that I can no longer go back, having someone else to take care of my parents in my place is a good option.

If we were to actually drive him away and let his parents know the truth, it would likely only add to their worries.

After much deliberation, Pang Bo decided he didn't want to cause his parents any trouble or distress.

His only concern was safety.

"There's no need to worry too much about safety."

Chen Yu noticed his worry and said, "I will have someone make arrangements with that demon cultivator."

"However, generally speaking, the proper cultivators over there will not easily harm mortals."

"Thank you for your help, Professor Chen."

Pang Bo nodded gratefully.

Pang Bo's matter can be put aside for now, and then it's time for Ye Fan.

Compared to the calm reaction of Pang Bo's parents, Ye Fan's parents' reaction was undoubtedly much stronger.

"They reacted strongly after they found out about the message you sent back."

Chen Yu's expression was strange: "According to the news that came back, they once suspected that you had been kidnapped. Fortunately, several secret messages sent by you proved your identity, which made them believe it."

He reached out and directly inputted the feedback from Ye Fan's parents into Ye Fan's mind.

The information was quite complex, filled with the parents' various emotions towards their child, including relief that Ye Fan was still alive and concern for his current situation.

However, knowing that someone is still alive is much better than not knowing whether they are alive or dead.

Ye Fan stood in front of him, his eyes already brimming with tears, and it took him a while to regain his composure.

He pondered for a moment, then asked Chen Yu to help deliver the message.

This time, he said a lot in one breath.

On the one hand, being in a foreign land, I really had a lot to say to my parents; on the other hand, I was also afraid of delaying things.

The cost of transmitting messages across star systems is terrifying; a single message transmission requires an entire source.

Although judging from Chen Yu's reaction, the other party didn't care about such a small thing, Ye Fan was too embarrassed to keep taking advantage of him for free.

It's good to be able to finish what you've said in one go and consume as little energy as possible.

It's important to know that Ye Fan was penniless at this time.

Excluding the Bodhi seed Chen Yu gave him earlier, even if he sold all his possessions, it wouldn't be enough to buy this one source.

"You're quite good at budgeting."

Chen Yu saw through his plan, so he smiled and casually sent the message back.

The light swept across the altar, then transformed into specks of divine power that flowed into it before disappearing completely.

After finishing all this, Chen Yu put away the altar and then looked at the thatched huts in front of him: "You don't mind if I stay here for a while, do you?"

"How dare I?"

Pang Bo and Ye Fan shook their heads repeatedly: "We would be more than happy if Master Chen were willing to stay here longer."

"The conditions here are very basic; we don't even have any meat regularly. I hope Master Chen won't find it offensive."

"It's alright."

Chen Yu shook his head and said, "I'll be here for a while longer. It would be good for me to stay here and cultivate in seclusion for a while."

Yan Ruyu has only just begun leading people to explore the Qingdi Tomb, so it is conceivable that there is still a long time to explore it.

Chen Yu cannot leave until he finds a way to open the Azure Emperor's Tomb. Hiding here and cultivating in seclusion for a while is not a bad choice.

During this period of time, I might be able to further improve my cultivation level.

So Chen Yu stayed there for the next few days.

The Lingxu Cave Heaven didn't react much to Chen Yu's arrival.

There are only a limited number of cultivators in the cultivation world of Yan Kingdom, most of whom are low-level rogue cultivators, and visiting friends is a common occurrence for them.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, Wu Qingfeng, who was in charge of teaching Pang Bo, still took the time to visit Chen Yu once.

After their meeting, Wu Qingfeng was utterly astonished by Chen Yu's extraordinary talent and had few doubts left in his heart.

Not only was the other party highly skilled, but their understanding of the Dao and principles far surpassed his. Within the entire Lingxu Cave Heaven, perhaps only the immortal Miao Weiwei, who had already gone to the Yaoguang Holy Land, could be somewhat comparable to him, but even she was far inferior to him.

Such a person would definitely look down on Lingxu Cave Heaven; to say that the other party has ulterior motives is simply a joke.

"Since we've just met, I'll gladly offer this resource to you, fellow Daoist. Consider it a gift for your temporary stay in the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven during your stay."

As they parted, Chen Yu casually gifted him a piece of source material.
