Cultivation Means Keeping a Low Profile, and I've Got a Dao Companion

In one sudden return to the past, Chao Wujiao fell from the sky right into the arms of the young lord of Mengyou City.

And who was this young lord of Mengyou City? Chao Wujiao knew him better than anyone.

Chao Jiuyun.

His younger self, before entering the cultivation world and before his spiritual marrow was excavated at the Nascent Soul stage, causing him to fall into demonic cultivation.

Afraid that Chao Jiuyun would repeat the same mistakes, Chao Wujiao kept his past firmly to himself.

But Chao Jiuyun was exceptionally clever, and so...

At Liuyun Hall of Qingyun Sect, Chao Wujiao was at the Qi Refining stage. His cultivation showed signs of recovery, but his demonic nature remained unstable. He took medicine and pills after class to nurse his health, and acted the part during class to quietly get through the days.

When the sect master showed concern during a visit to Linjian, Chao Wujiao had recovered a little and his demonic nature was stable. In private, he stood before Chao Jiuyun and spoke; in public, he kept close to Chao Jiuyun and stayed out of sight.

At the Golden Core stage, a secret realm opened, and ten thousand people entered together...

Later, as they ate, lived, traveled, and did everything else together, Chao Jiuyun was trapped in a secluded paradise where brilliant peach blossoms bloomed all around. He smiled and said, "Chao Suizhi, I love you."

Chao Wujiao's hand trembled, and the Wuhun Fan flew into the trees. "Hm?"

At first, he thought Chao Jiuyun was mistaken, that he had confused fondness with love. After all, they were the same person. If he kept quiet, perhaps Chao Jiuyun would figure it out.

But the messages brimming with affection, each one saying "I miss you," sent through the voice-transmitting jade tablet, along with his own thoughts filled with longing and his uncontrollable heartbeat, made it perfectly clear: he was the one who hadn't figured it out.
