Their voices gradually died down, and they sat together until the rooster crowed again. “It’s dawn,” Ye Mo muttered. They had sat there all night. Luo Ying lay in Ye Mo’s arms, unwilling to move.

Ye Mo suddenly remembered something. He took out a small bag for Luo Ying, saying, “Susu, the Serenity sect leader asked me to give this to you. I didn’t open it; see what’s inside.”

Luo Ying took the bag and opened it. Inside were two books and a yellow cloth with a date written on it. “What are these characters? I’ve never seen them before,” Luo Ying said, puzzled.

Ye Mo took them, dazed. It was the Luo Yue Continent language. How had it reached Serenity? “This is your cultivation method, the same as the one I wrote for you,” Ye Mo said.

“Huh? So the dream was real?” Luo Ying took the book shakily. Ye Mo nodded. “It is.”

He didn’t understand how it appeared on Earth and was acquired by the Serenity sect leader. The date on the cloth was April 26th—a familiar date. It was the day Ye Mo transmigrated.

“Look at this book,” Luo Ying gave Ye Mo the other book. Ye Mo flipped through a few pages, feeling a strong sense of love.

Noticing this, Luo Ying asked, “What does it say?” Ye Mo answered softly, “Susu, it’s your diary from your past life. Many things are exactly as I dreamed—”

“Huh?” Luo Ying quickly took the book. “I’ll show you later.” Ye Mo nodded. “Perhaps you’ll remember things. It’s fine either way.”

Luo Ying blushed. “I will show you, I just don’t know if I said anything bad about you. You need to teach me this language, though.”

Ye Mo said softly, “Of course. In our last life, you taught me; in this life, I’ll teach you. I learned many words from you.”

“But wasn’t that just in your dreams?” “No, I believe it happened.”

Seeing Luo Ying put the book away, Ye Mo said, “I’ll make you a storage ring later.”

He had the materials. He even added a blue diamond. He worried about telling Luo Ying about Ning Qingxue, but he had time. The ring was quickly made, and Ye Mo added some recovery and cultivation pills before giving it to Luo Ying.

Luo Ying looked at the ring; her expression mirrored Ning Qingxue’s. The joy in her eyes was immense. The blue diamond and storage weren’t the main points; it was that Ye Mo had made it for her.

“H-help me put it on,” Luo Ying’s voice was shaky. She knew what a ring meant.

Ye Mo gently put the ring on her finger. Watching Luo Ying fiddle with it, Ye Mo’s heart warmed.

He didn’t disturb her and took out his phone. He would call his sister and Qingxue.

But his phone was flooded with texts. Some were from Ning Qingxue and his sister, but most were from Li Chunsheng and Shi Xiu. It was about the Jiutang City case. Cheng Changhui had been arrested, but Li Chunsheng needed him urgently. Shi Xiu’s texts said the same.

Ye Mo called them, but both phones were off. He texted Beiwei, Qingxue, and Ye Ling. He decided to return to Jiutang. Why would Li Chunsheng struggle with a simple case?

“What happened, Martial Brother?” Luo Ying found “Martial Brother” more fitting. Ye Mo agreed. “Two friends in Jiutang are in trouble. I need to go. I’m sorry, Susu; I wanted to stay longer.”

Luo Ying touched the ring and smiled. “No need to apologize. I’ll go wherever you go. I have nothing here. I’ll just take the stone pool. And I’ll give the money in my ring to Uncle Wang and Aunt Xi to share with the villagers. The ginseng and wedding money were all from them.”

Ye Mo smiled and took her hand. “No need, I still have plenty.”

It was mostly USD, about 5 million RMB. He gave over 1 million to Luo Ying and kept the rest.

The villagers were kind, and the leader divided the money fairly. When Luo Ying and Ye Mo left, everyone waved goodbye.

“They’re good people,” Luo Ying said, even though people were still waving long after they’d left. “Because you’re an immortal goddess,” Ye Mo smiled.

…

Ye Mo called Lu Lin upon reaching Jiutang City, but couldn’t reach her either. He decided to buy Luo Ying some clothes and then go to Jiuhe Corporation. He didn’t believe a province-level senator would lose a fair fight.

A pale yellow dress, with the necklace and ring, made Luo Ying look ethereal. Everyone in the clothing store was captivated by her beauty.

“Wait for me; I need to buy things at the supermarket,” Luo Ying said, seeing Ye Mo on a call.

Ye Mo understood she needed women’s products, so he waited at the door, considering the situation.

“Hmm, might you be Ye Mo?” an abrupt voice interrupted Ye Mo’s thoughts.

A man in his thirties stopped before him, a revealingly dressed woman in her twenties beside him. She wasn’t ugly, but Ye Mo disliked her makeup.

The man looked familiar. He remembered: Wang Chu, a classmate in Ning Hai, and a close friend of Shi Xiu’s. Shi Xiu didn’t have many university friends, but more than Ye Mo.

“Wang Chu, why are you here?” Ye Mo asked.

“Huh, you’re really Ye Mo? You changed so much! Shi Xiu asked me to come. He’s in trouble, and I’m working in Jiutang,” Wang Chu said.

Just as Ye Mo was about to ask about Shi Xiu, Luo Ying’s angry voice called him. He immediately went to her.
