Shaking her head helplessly, Ji Yunxi explained, "She didn't hurt me on purpose. We were in a hurry and didn't have any other choice. Yue Chen's people were watching, so it was difficult for her to even get close to me, let alone treat my injuries."
Others might have many misunderstandings, but Ji Yunxi knew how difficult Yun Luotian's situation was at that time. Even though she had injured herself, she had suffered twenty thunder punishments and was still not completely healed to this day.
"Yunhui, perhaps you still have many misunderstandings about Luotian, but believe me when I say that she is definitely not the kind of person you imagine. She was raised by our side since childhood. Don't you know what kind of person she is? And in order to save me back then, she was even given twenty thunder punishments by Yue Chen. Now she..."
"Senior Sister..." Yun Luotian quickly grabbed Ji Yunxi. She didn't want to use this method to force Yunhui to forgive her.
Yunhui thought that Yun Luotian was just making excuses and didn't say anything more. "Senior Sister, is there something you need to talk to me about today?"
Knowing that these emotions could not be eliminated in a short period of time, Ji Yunxi did not continue to say more, but just said, "Yunhui, the current situation in the world is not optimistic. Jiang Yaoji, the head of the Jiang family, is colluding with the Moon Palace. Now... Feng Xingzhi has also fallen into her scheme and lost all his memories. He has also joined hands with her."
Yunhui was a little shocked. "Then..."
Yun Luotian added, "That's right. Now Jiang Yaoji has joined hands with the old members of the Wind and Thunder Palace. The enemy outnumbers us, and the situation of the old members of the Cloud Rising Palace is not optimistic."
Hearing this, Yunhui roughly understood Ji Yunxi's purpose for this visit. "So you want to unite everyone to deal with Emperor Yue Chen and Jiang Yaoji to eliminate future troubles?"
"Yes. These two people have committed many evil deeds. If they cannot be eliminated, I'm afraid the world will fall into their hands." A hint of coldness appeared in Ji Yunxi's eyes. Being kind to the enemy would only make them take advantage of the situation.
After hearing this, Yunhui fell silent. He lowered his head and played with the teacup, as if he was thinking about something.
The two children in the room didn't know what they were talking about. They seemed to be arguing, and a baby cried out loudly.
Yunhui quickly stood up and ran into the room. After a while, he carried the crying child out. There was also a little boy following him.
Yunhui gently wiped the little girl's tears. "Be good. Don't cry."
The girl sniffed quietly. Her whimpering childish voice was really cute.
Yunhui's expression changed after hearing this. He shouted at the little boy beside him. "You bullied your sister again. Are you itchy?"
The child wasn't angry after being scolded. He made a face at the little girl in Yunhui's arms.
The little girl immediately stopped crying and giggled.
Qingxuan looked at the little girl and couldn't help but step forward to touch her chubby face. The little girl arched her body and dodged, looking as if she was a little disgusted.
At this moment, the girl seemed to have just discovered that there were some strangers in the room. She opened her big black eyes and looked at everyone in the room curiously.
Ji Yunxi immediately understood what she meant. She smiled at the child and stood up. "You can think about it first. We will come to visit you again tomorrow."
The little girl whispered something in Yunhui's ear. Yunhui listened carefully and didn't notice what Ji Yunxi said. By the time Ji Yunxi and the others left the room.
"Senior Sister..." Yunhui suddenly shouted at her.
Ji Yunxi turned around. She saw that Yunhui's eyes were full of emotions. There was reluctance, conflict, and also heartache! And the little girl in his arms looked innocent and didn't understand anything. She looked at him with a smile on her face.
Ji Yunxi didn't say anything. She patiently waited for him to continue.
She saw Yunhui open his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
At this moment, the little girl struggled to get off. Yunhui seemed like a deflated ball. The light in his eyes dimmed a little. "Senior Sister, be careful on the way."
"Okay!" Ji Yunxi nodded briskly. It was within her expectations, so she wasn't disappointed.
She brought Yun Luotian and Qingxuan and quickly left.
Qingxuan didn't understand and wanted to say something. "Master, we..."
Ji Yunxi directly pulled him away.
On the way back to the town, Qingxuan didn't understand Ji Yunxi's actions. "Master, we were about to persuade Yunhui. Why did we suddenly leave?"
Ji Yunxi shook her head. She remembered the girl's smile and said with a sigh, "It's obvious that he has adapted to the mortal world's life. It would be difficult for him to give up everything and go against Jiang Yaoji with us. Moreover, he suddenly found out many things that he didn't know before. It's better to let him digest them first. We will come again tomorrow."
"Alright..." Qingxuan nodded to show that he understood. Yun Luotian didn't say anything since she left Yunhui's house.
"Luotian? Luotian!"
Ji Yunxi nudged her. Yun Luotian came back to her senses. "Ah, Yunxi, what, what's wrong?"
"What are you thinking about?" Yunxi stared at Yun Luotian with a burning gaze.
Yun Luotian felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and looked away. "No, I'm not thinking about anything?"
Ji Yunxi didn't believe her and asked with a smile, "Then did you hear what I said just now?"
"I... didn't."
Yun Luotian was in a low mood just now and didn't listen carefully to what the two of them said.
At this moment, the three of them walked onto the stone bridge. Ji Yunxi sighed and turned to look at the lotus leaves on the river being blown by the wind. "Yunhui doesn't know the inside story. What he said was just angry words. Don't take it to heart!"
"I know. I won't take it to heart!" Yun Luotian's tone was a little stiff.
Ji Yunxi knew that what Yunhui said just now had hurt her. It was useless for her to say more. She could only wait for her to figure it out. "You only need to remember that no matter what others say, your actions were correct at that time."
Yun Luotian looked up at Ji Yunxi. Her eyes were slightly red. "I know, Senior Sister... Give me some time."
"I know you will." Ji Yunxi smiled. "Let's go back to the inn in the town first."
The streets of the small town were still very lively. The shouts of the peddlers came one after another. The food on the roadside stalls emitted an alluring smell, making people drool. The children playing on the streets surrounded the old man selling sugar figurines and played around.
Qingxuan was attracted by some strange little things. He was in a playful mood and wanted to stroll around the market. Ji Yunxi thought that it was still early before nightfall. The three of them were free, so she let them stroll around at will.
Who knew that after walking for a while, Ji Yunxi exchanged a look with the two of them. The three of them slowed down their steps in unison. The people from the Moon Watching Pavilion didn't know when they had followed them. They were really a ghost that haunted them!
The three of them were not familiar with this place, so they pretended not to see them and continued walking forward. When they passed by a clothing store, the three of them went in to disguise themselves and then walked out from the back door.
The people from the Moon Watching Pavilion saw that they had gone in for a long time and waited outside. However, they didn't see the three of them come out for a long time. Only then did they realize that they had been deceived!
Ji Yunxi knew that they would be discovered sooner or later, so she decided to split up and meet at the inn in the end. "Qingxuan, you go with Luotian. This way, it will be convenient for us to contact each other at any time."
"Master, what about you?" Qingxuan was worried about her being alone.
Ji Yunxi said, "Don't worry about me. A smaller target is not easy to be discovered."
"Okay!" Although the two of them were worried about Ji Yunxi, they also thought that what she said made sense. So the three of them started to act separately.
