Several days later, within a small wooden house in the mountains surrounding the Broken Moon Demon Gorge.
Leng Yueshuang sighed helplessly, looking at the small wooden house that had been uninhabited for a long time.
Where on earth did that guy run off to?
She had finally managed to shake off the elders who were following her and took a detour to this place, searching for Lin Luochen's whereabouts.
Leng Yueshuang had inquired about Lin Luochen in the town at the foot of the mountain and learned that he had briefly entered the town and then quickly left.
This put her mind at ease; he was fine, at least he hadn't fallen into the hands of the demonesses from Miaoyin Sect.
But besides knowing that Lin Luochen was safe and sound, and that he hadn't used a fake name to deceive her, Leng Yueshuang had found nothing.
No, she had also discovered a bunch of women who were infatuated with him!
From charming widows to young maidens experiencing their first love, they all had a special fondness for this guy.
Leng Yueshuang could have returned home then, but not seeing Lin Luochen left her feeling somewhat unwilling.
She carefully searched the room and finally found a few strands of Lin Luochen's hair on the bed.
Leng Yueshuang tied her own hair with Lin Luochen's hair, clasped them in her hand, and muttered incantations.
"Love-sick soul, guide me; spiritual connection, transform into a blue butterfly; with hair as a bond, and thought as a medium, burn away my longing to find my beloved's return..."
A moment later, the long hair in Leng Yueshuang's hand was consumed by a faint blue flame, transforming into a blue butterfly.
"Ah? How is it actually useful?"
Her pretty face flushed slightly, as this technique was called 'Love-sick Guide,' a spell used by witch tribe women to find their beloved.
This was a forbidden art in Jade Maiden Sect, and Leng Yueshuang had only remembered it because she liked the name.
She hadn't expected that she would ever use this technique, nor had she expected it to actually work.
Does this mean that she...
Leng Yueshuang lightly bit her red lip, resolutely casting that thought aside.
Her feelings for him were merely gratitude; she just wanted to see him once to confirm that he was truly safe and sound.
Yes, she would leave after seeing him once!
After she gently exhaled, the butterfly swiftly took flight and soared into the distance.
Leng Yueshuang dared not delay, soaring into the air and closely pursuing the butterfly, like a fairy from the Moon Palace.
Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away from the cross-canyon bridge.
Lin Luochen and Murong Xiazhu glided across the treetops above the forest, their figures graceful, as if riding the wind.
Although they no longer had a carriage, Lin Luochen and Murong Xiazhu could both ride the wind, so their speed was quite fast, and they arrived at the edge of the gorge.
The three of them took an unconventional path; although they encountered many jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, they did not encounter any enemies.
Seeing Lin Luochen still soaring towards the top of the gorge, Murong Xiazhu nervously said, "You're not thinking of flying across this gorge, are you?"
Lin Luochen said indifferently, "Why not?"
Murong Xiazhu quickly said, "This gorge is several hundred zhang wide! We're just riding the wind, we can't truly fly!"
"I know!"
After Lin Luochen finished speaking, he continued to glide towards the edge of the gorge on his own, leaving Murong Xiazhu puzzled.
The three of them quickly arrived at the edge of the gorge. This gorge was indeed several hundred zhang wide, with howling crosswinds above, making it difficult for even birds to cross.
Lin Luochen set Murong Qiuzhi down, looking at the gorge before him, and frowned slightly.
The crosswinds above the gorge were somewhat beyond his expectation.
"Are the crosswinds always raging above this gorge?"
Murong Xiazhu shook her head and said, "Not really, they stop for an hour every day at You Shi (5-7 PM)."
"You haven't given up, have you? There's no way we can fly across this. Calm down!"
Lin Luochen smiled and said, "What if I can fly across?"
Murong Xiazhu had a strange expression and said, "Do you have a flying spirit artifact?"
"No!"
Murong Xiazhu rolled her eyes. "If you don't have a flying spirit artifact, and you can fly across, then you can do whatever you want!"
Lin Luochen's lips curved slightly upwards as he smiled and said, "You said that!"
Qu Lingyin recalled the two times she had lost bets and suddenly felt that this boy was very cunning.
The three of them waited by the cliff. Lin Luochen took out his folding fan and practiced casting spells and attacking with it.
The Murong sisters teased Rat while watching him from a distance.
Rat was very fond of being close to them, and especially liked Murong Qiuzhi.
Lin Luochen had tried to catch it a few times, but it still liked to slip away, so Lin Luochen just let it be.
After all, once it tasted hardship, it would become obedient!
But Rat was completely unaffected by Murong Qiuzhi, which left Lin Luochen dumbfounded.
Could this treasure-hunting Rat be incredibly lucky?
Regardless, since Rat wasn't afraid, Lin Luochen stopped bothering with it.
After three days of rest, Murong Qiuzhi's physical condition had recovered significantly.
At this moment, she watched Lin Luochen without blinking, her eyes filled with admiration.
Lin Gongzi truly improves quickly, and when he uses his folding fan, he is truly dashing and elegant.
Murong Xiazhu leaned in close to her ear and teased, "Qiu Zhi, have you fallen for him?"
Murong Qiuzhi's face turned bright red, and she quickly said, "Sister, don't talk nonsense!"
"How am I talking nonsense? Your eyes are filled with affection; who can you hide that from?"
"Sister~"
Murong Qiuzhi whined, "Stop joking, you know my situation."
Murong Xiazhu smiled helplessly and said, "It's precisely because I know that I'm asking you. Haven't you noticed how resilient he is?"
"This guy has been in contact with you for so long, and besides being a bit unlucky, he's still lively and kicking. He's practically your fated one!"
Murong Qiuzhi shyly lowered her head: "Sister, I've only known him for a few days; isn't it too early to talk about these things?"
Murong Xiazhu said eagerly, "Too early for what? It's rare to meet someone so resilient. He'll run away later!"
"If you don't take the initiative to win him over, and he runs away later, don't come crying to me!"
Murong Qiuzhi felt a little moved by these words, and she shyly and timidly looked towards Lin Luochen.
At this moment, the folding fan in Lin Luochen's hand suddenly went out of control, flying over his head and nearly slicing it off.
Murong Qiuzhi quickly dismissed her recent thoughts and weakly said, "I'd rather live alone; I don't want to harm anyone else."
Murong Xiazhu, frustrated, rolled her eyes, clearly plotting something mischievous.
Lin Luochen pulled out the folding fan stuck in the tree, looking at the weakened strong wind.
"It's almost time. Come here!"
The two sisters walked over. Murong Xiazhu worriedly asked, "You're not really going to fly across, are you?"
"Otherwise?"
Lin Luochen took out a talisman and placed it on his body, and instantly a pair of huge translucent wings spread out from his back.
This was the last Yuhua Talisman remaining from the five talismans Leng Yueshuang had given him, which could allow even ordinary people to fly in the air for a period of time.
Murong Xiazhu had never seen a flying talisman that didn't require spiritual power to activate, and she was dumbfounded.
Even the Wei family couldn't possibly possess talismans of this caliber. What exactly was this boy's background?
Could he really be a demon male from Miaoyin Sect?
"Let's go!"
Lin Luochen took a step forward, embracing one woman with each arm, and amidst their exclamations, he spread his wings and flew towards the opposite bank.
As the strong wind blew, Murong Qiuzhi quickly hugged Lin Luochen's chest, clinging to him like a sloth.
Murong Xiazhu also felt a little scared looking at the abyss below, and could only wrap her arms around Lin Luochen's neck.
"Bastard, couldn't you have taken us one by one?"
Lin Luochen, with a woman on each arm, enjoying the moment, couldn't help but tease, "No, I prefer to fly together like lovebirds!"
Who knew if this Yuhua Talisman could withstand a round trip? Most importantly, he had to hold Murong Qiuzhi!
Otherwise, who knew if a strong wind would suddenly blow when he crossed?
Murong Xiazhu felt their awkward posture and angrily said, "If I fall to my death, I won't let you go even as a ghost!"
Lin Luochen laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry, you won't fall to your death."
The three of them flew over the gorge without encountering any dangers or demonic beasts; it was quite calm.
The two women also relaxed, looking around curiously, their faces filled with wonder.
Murong Qiuzhi extended one hand to feel the airflow, a hint of longing in her eyes.
"Is this what it feels like to fly with the wind?"
Murong Xiazhu also extended one hand and declared with great ambition, "Qiu Zhi, I'll take you to fly all over the world in the future."
Lin Luochen, helpless, could only hold the two sisters, who were flying together like lovebirds, a little tighter, lest they fall.
After putting his hands on both of them, Lin Luochen noticed that Murong Qiuzhi was a bit more rounded than Murong Xiazhu, and her waist was softer.
Murong Xiazhu, due to her cultivation, had a more slender and elastic waist.
Lin Luochen couldn't help but wonder if the sisters also had subtle differences in other aspects?
Damn it, what was he thinking?
A moment later, the three of them landed on the opposite bank, and Lin Luochen released his hands from the two women's waists.
"Alright, you can get down now!"
The two women, with their feet on solid ground, still felt as if they were dreaming, unable to believe they had actually flown across.
Lin Luochen put away the Yuhua Talisman, which could still be used a few more times, and looked playfully at Murong Xiazhu.
"You lost!"
