Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

To save face for Ji Ting, Cheng Xiao planned to go through the proper procedures to enter the territory of the Chiming clan.

"Mr. Cheng Xiao! You, what brings you here!"

"I've come to visit Ji Ting. Please inform him of my arrival."

"Okay! It's my pleasure!"

Xiaolongnu was so excited to be led by Chengxiao that she even took a longer route before finally arriving at Jiting's cultivation room.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Cheng Xiao, I will go and inform Lord Ji Ting right away."

Upon learning of Cheng Xiao's arrival, Ji Ting, who was immersed in his dragon brain fantasy, was suddenly jolted awake.

"What?! Cheng Xiao is here?! Take me to see him!"

Ji Ting hurriedly tidied himself up and quickly went outside.

Sure enough, the man I had been longing for was right in front of me.

Lightning crackled around Ji Ting, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Cheng Xiao.

"Are you finally ready to marry me?"

Cheng Xiao: "?"

Seeing Cheng Xiao's helpless expression, Ji Ting was somewhat disappointed:

"What, you came to see me just for a casual visit?"

Cheng Xiao coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment:

"Let's go inside and talk."

Upon entering the room, Ji Ting was somewhat flustered, as she had rushed out and the door to the secret room was not yet closed.

But Cheng Xiao was right beside her, and she couldn't let him discover anything, otherwise she might as well just smash her head against a wall and die.

She didn't know that Cheng Xiao had already seen it. In fact, Cheng Xiao didn't care. He had seen things even more despicable than this and was already used to it.

After both parties were seated, Ji Ting's eyes kept glancing towards the secret room, as if he wanted to find an opportunity to close it.

However, Cheng Xiao directly self-destructed:

"I know everything you did in the secret room."

"Aaaaaah!!! What did you say?!"

Seeing the dazed and crazed Ji Ting, Cheng Xiao comforted him:

Don't be shy, I don't mind.

Ji Ting gradually calmed down and said nervously:

"I...I...I'm just a collector..."

Your explanation is too far-fetched!

Suppressing the urge to complain, Cheng Xiao spoke up:

"You should know about what happened between Yueyu and Jiangyue and me, right?"

"Hmph! Of course I know! Just thinking about it makes me angry. Even they're eating meat, while I can only sit here and console myself with some meal replacements!"

"I'm sorry, but this time, I'm here to completely resolve these historical issues."

"What do you mean?"

"I should have given you an answer to many things long ago. I'm guilty for making you wait so long."

"You...you don't mean to...."

Cheng Xiao nodded seriously:

"That's right, Jiting, I want to marry you."

"That's great! Waaaaah... You finally said yes, you're finally willing to marry me... Waaaaah..."

Cheng Xiao: "?"

"No, I meant I'll marry you, not that I'll marry you."

"No! You have to marry me! I am the Dragon Lord, of course I'll marry you!"

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter. I'll marry you, alright?"

"That's great! You're moving to Yaoqing right now, so we can spend every day together!"

Cheng Xiao: "?"

"Wait, what do you mean I should move to Yaoqing? I'll only live in Luofu."

"Why! You're married to me now, you're my capable wife, how can my wife not live with me?"

As expected, there isn't a single normal person in your Yaoqing!

"Jiting, if you keep acting up, I'm leaving."

"I was wrong."

Cheng Xiao was very satisfied with Ji Ting's attitude.

He helped Ji Ting with his clothes and combed his hair, just like he had done at the beginning, to relieve his stress.

Ji Ting said he was hungry, so Cheng Xiao borrowed the kitchen in the Chi Ming clan's territory to cook.

Watching Cheng Xiao busy in the kitchen, Ji Ting clearly realized: the trial card from back then had finally become permanent.

The man carefully selected by Danfeng finally gave her a share of the pie. Time has proven his sincerity, and her wait was not in vain.

After a hearty meal, Ji Ting produced another marriage certificate.

I used to chase after Cheng Xiao to get his signature, but to no avail. Now he's come to me of his own accord.

"Sign it!"

Without a word, Cheng Xiao picked up his pen and signed the document, without the slightest hesitation.

Only now did Ji Ting finally feel completely at ease.

Admiring his and Cheng Xiao's names on the marriage certificate, Ji Ting said happily:

"If you can't do it, I'll take it to Luofu to find Danfeng, and then we'll see how you escape."

"Now, transform into dragon-human form!"

Cheng Xiao obediently did as instructed.

The familiar dragon horns and tail appeared, and Ji Ting excitedly hugged Cheng Xiao.

"Let me touch the dragon's horns, let me touch its tail, let me kiss its mouth, and then go cook me two dishes."

"Don't push your luck, you old hag!"

......

"Where did you get these figurines and photos?"

Cheng Xiao entered the secret room and admired his various figurines and photos. They were indeed lifelike, and the angles of the photos were also quite tricky.

Ji Ting rubbed his hands awkwardly and explained softly:

"This... I can't say."

Cheng Xiao's curiosity:

"Can't you tell me yet? What, are you hiding some big secret?"

"No, it's a promise I didn't want to tell you."

"Really not going to tell?"

Ji Ting shook his head frantically.

"Alright, I'll be leaving tonight."

"don't want!"

"Then tell me what exactly happened."

"Ugh... Cheng Xiao, you're threatening me, you're so mean."

"Honey, you swear like you're being affectionate."

Ji Ting's face flushed red. Cheng Xiao actually called her "baby," she couldn't stand it.

After a complex internal struggle, Ji Ting sighed:

"This matter is related to Yueyu and the others."

"That's a lie."

Cheng Xiao picked up the figurine, which had the words "Made by Jade Palace" on the bottom.

"Oops! We've been discovered!"

"Tell me the truth! You little general, you think you can outsmart me?"

With his lie exposed, Ji Ting could only obediently kneel on the ground and explain the origin of the items:

"Actually, Yueyu and the others did participate, after all, these photos and dolls do have a comforting effect."

"You mean Yueyu and the others were involved in buying and selling these things?"

"Yes, but don't worry, these things only circulate among us. Every Dragon Lord should have some in their collection, more or less."

"Red maple trees too?!"

"Absolutely! She not only owns them, she's the biggest collector!"

Cheng Xiao was utterly perplexed:

"If you were collecting these things, I could understand, but why does Danfeng want to do this too? I'm often with her."

Ji Ting explained:

"It's simple. Danfeng doesn't collect your figurines; she collects the items you took off, and every single one of them is imbued with your scent."

"Haven't you noticed that you keep losing clothes? Or some personal jade pendants or ornaments? Anyway, with Danfeng's wealth, it wouldn't be a problem for you to wear new clothes every day."

Cheng Xiao fell silent; it was truly terrifying to think about.

"Since I sealed myself away, the Immortal Ship should have started to block any images of me, not wanting the forces that held those memories to use them against me. Yet you actually did this on your own."

"Oh dear, it's internal supply~"

Cheng Xiao always had a bad feeling.

The manufacture of the Jade Palace... could it be the work of Yao Guang?
