"what?"

Xi Yue narrowed her eyes and looked at Wei Tu with a certain threat in her eyes. She did not want the other party to provoke her at this time, otherwise she could not guarantee what she might do.

"If all these things are going to be solved by my luck, what are you people who hold divine status doing?"

"..."

Xi Yue was naturally furious.

She hung Wei Tu directly on the eaves of the Moon Palace.

Wei Tu was not physically harmed and knew that the other party was just giving him a warning to be more careful in the future. However... Wei Tu would certainly not change his behavior because of such a threat.

However... we should temporarily retreat from the limelight.

Xi Yue looked up at him, and was quite satisfied with this approach.

"What you need to know is that not all the people in these divine palaces are united. One thing they have in common with you mortals is that they each have their own ulterior motives. This cannot be changed by the will of one person alone. Rather than a cooperative relationship, the five great immortal palaces are more like a system of checks and balances. However... now someone wants to break this system of checks and balances and become the sole power."

"You mean Feng Huating?"

"It's not just Feng Huating, but also the Shadow Chasing Sect and Star Picking Tower, whose attitudes are currently unclear. The Shadow Chasing Sect is alright; their behavior has always been furtive, and they never make decisions first. But Star Picking Tower... I dare say, if Feng Huating really decides to do something and openly declares war, then Star Picking Tower will definitely respond to their existence. No matter what they say, they can be considered a member of Feng Huating's camp."

"You guys are just as good at scheming and backstabbing as I am."

Wei Tu was suspended, his face still calm. Although it was indeed cold at the top, it was as if one could see a large expanse of white skin on the woman's chest.

"Compared to you mortals, we are but small fry compared to great wizards."

"If that's the case, then isn't your goal also to dominate the market?"

Xi Yue looked at Wei Tu with disdain.

"What do you know? This kind of division and the balanced distribution of power is wrong from the start. Power should be in the hands of wise people. Otherwise, such things will happen again and again. Who do you think will suffer? Aren't you cultivators who are delusional about proving the path to immortality?"

Wei Tu laughed.

"I believe that every one of you so-called holders of divine authority thinks this way, that you are the wisest one, but in reality you are all gamblers holding chips, just standing on different sides, with the common goal of winning everything from your opponents at the table."

Xi Yue sneered.

“You’re right about that, but don’t you have your own position? Don’t you have your own interests? Whether it’s your own child or the people around you, you have to make a choice. You’re not some innocent person who’s standing aside; you’re just one of the gamblers.”

Wei Tu nodded.

"But I can choose which one I win with."

Xi Yue was not angry.

Instead, he looked at Wei Tu with some disdain.

"You're useless. I thought you'd say you could decide to win all by yourself. I would have respected you more then."

Wei Tu laughed and said, "Why do I need your approval? You're not my wife."

"Wei Tu!"

"...Sorry, sorry, it was just a joke."

Xi Yue squinted at the boy above.

Suddenly, she thought of something and revealed a somewhat seductive smile.

"Yeah, you don't fall for my tricks, but I know what you do."

Wei Tu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what she was about to do.

Before Wei Tu could say anything...

Xi Yue below then closed her eyes.

next moment.

She opened her eyes, her face already filled with confusion.

Then, looking at the boy who was hanging high up, she blinked.

"What are you doing……?"

What could Wei Tu say?

You can't exactly say... "I can pee farther from where I'm standing higher," can you?

Is 104 you or your sister?

Sometimes, a moment of awkwardness takes a lifetime to heal.

Often at night, when I'm already snuggled in my warm blankets, the thought of my shameful past makes me instantly curl up like a shrimp, tossing and turning, my cheeks burning red...

Don't doubt it, everyone has had this experience, and Wei Tu is no exception.

"Um, put aside why, could you put me down?"

Wei Tu looked at the other person and asked.

Now, in a completely different state, Xi Yue blinked and looked at Wei Tu curiously.

"Can't you get down by yourself?"

Wei Tu reached out and tugged at his collar.

Then it fell from the sky and landed steadily.

He had just been checking to see if Xi Yue was playing a trick on him, trying to embarrass him when he came down. Seeing her expression and hearing her words, Wei Tu finally realized that this was not a trap.

"You could have gotten down by yourself, why did you ask me?"

Xi Yue, who appeared innocent and somewhat lively, asked this question.

Wei Tu straightened his somewhat disheveled and unkempt clothes.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see if you're a helpful person."

"Helpful... Oh, sorry, I thought you were playing up there."

The girl said very seriously.

"Would anyone really be so bored as to hang from the eaves for fun?"

Wei Tu felt that the other party was mocking him, but he had no evidence. Logically speaking... they shouldn't be that malicious, right?

But who can say for sure about women?

Even an old monster who had lived for over two hundred years couldn't be sure he could completely see through a woman.

"Is it possible that I didn't go up there voluntarily?"

Wei Tu sighed and said this.

"Who put you up there?"

The woman looked at Wei Tu curiously, and Wei Tu looked at her in return.

The two remained silent for a moment.

The woman tentatively asked, "Could it be my sister...?"

"What do you think?"

"Okay... she does have a bit of a temper, but she doesn't mean any harm..."

Wei Tu sneered.

"That's right. If she didn't have bad intentions, then everyone in the world would be a good person."

Xi Yue blushed slightly and said softly.

"Then I'll apologize to you on her behalf, okay? Don't be angry..."

Wei Tu pondered for a moment and looked at the woman.

Why are you apologizing to me?

"You should apologize when you do something wrong..."

"But don't you know your own identity?"

"What does identity matter...aren't all people the same?"

Her innocence is almost too adorable.

I don't know what that 'Xi Yue' was thinking, letting her out in front of me. Did she think I was too good-natured and wouldn't do anything to her?

Such an innocent woman... she's practically a little girl; you could probably fool her with just a few more words.

But Wei Tu couldn't bring himself to do it, and as it turned out, Xi Yue's decision was quite accurate; he really couldn't bring himself to do it.

He sighed.

"Okay, you're right."

Wei Tu casually sat down on the steps at the entrance of the Moon Palace.

It's like a destitute traveler who has exhausted himself, having already climbed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

Xi Yue looked over curiously, then gently sat down next to the boy.

She asked tentatively.

"You haven't been here for a long time, has something happened?"

Wei Tu said lazily, "I guess so. I almost died out there, but thankfully, I survived."

Xi Yue's eyes widened. "Is it that dangerous? What do you usually do? Why would something so dangerous happen?"

Wei Tu smiled and said, "This world doesn't protect you from danger just because of what you're doing. You might be walking down the street and something could fall from the sky and kill you. It doesn't matter what you do; when it's your turn to die, you will die."

Xi Yue thought for a moment and said, "You sound very pessimistic. Why do you say that? Have things been going badly for you lately?"

Wei Tu found it quite strange; 'Xi Yue' was always trying to torment herself, while this Xi Yue was always trying to comfort herself.

What's going on? A new tactic, offering pick-up and drop-off service?

"It's not that things are going badly, things just haven't stopped... I'm probably just a little tired."

Xi Yue thought for a moment, the moonlight shining on her delicate face, the bright moonlight covering it making her look so holy.

It's a completely different temperament from that 'Xi Yue'.
