“Rolly?” Qiao Chu looked at the little furball inside his chest, and immediately recognized its identity.
Wasn’t that a miniature version of the Ying Yang Bear?
“Ring Spirits are spirit forms by itself and their existence are directly linked to your souls.” Jun Wu Yao said with a shrug.
“Heh. Little fella, so you’re still with me.” Qiao Chu could not help but want to poke at the Ying Yang Bear, and as he smiled, he discovered something highly shocking.
“Heavens be damned! Where’re my clothes! ?”
Caught up in his astoundment from having his soul parted from his body, Qiao Chu suddenly realized that his entire body was stark naked and he wasn’t covered at all in the slightest!
“Pfft! Hahaha!” Fei Yan had endured it for so long and his finally burst out laughing, having already noticed that all along.
“Argh! Argh! Argh! Arrrgh!” Qiao Chu let out a wail, and squatted himself down, trying his hardest to cover his stark naked body. However, as a brand new spirit form, he was translucent and there was no way he could cover himself at all.
Qiao Chu almost wanted to cry.
He finally understood, why Jun Wu Yao had covered Jun Wu Xie’s eyes earlier! !
Knowing that their souls could be parted from their flesh bodies, Hua Yao and the others were more prepared. Jun Qing got Long Qi to fetch a few men to catch Hua Yao and the others when they fell before Jun Wu Yao went on to pull their souls out, where he kept Jun Wu Xie’s eyes tightly covered throughout the entire process.
Although she knew what Jun Wu Yao was concerned about, but…..
Jun Wu Xie really felt like telling him, that back in her previous life, she had already dissected an uncountable number of bodies of the opposite sex!
When it was Rong Ruo’s turn, Fei Yan’s soul that had just been dragged out from his body shot himself right in between Rong Ruo and Jun Wu Yao, his face bitterly mournful.
“Big Brother Wu Yao, can we go inside a room before doing it?”
[This one is to be his future little wife! !]

Chapter 1958: “Making Their Way Towards the Spirits (4)”
Rong Ruo was feeling at quite a loss as she looked at Fei Yan. Jun Wu Yao raised up an eyebrow slightly and a faint smile passed his lips.
“Alright.”
His mind set at ease by the reply, Fei Yan heaved a sigh of relief, before hurrying to hide inside one of the houses at the side.
Just like Qiao Chu, when their souls parted from their bodies, there wasn’t a sliver of clothing upon them.
Rong Ruo followed Jun Wu Yao into a room, as Qiao Chu and the others hid helplessly as they trembled. They were not able to physically touch anything and they had no choice but to remain unclothed.
Not long after, Jun Wu Yao came walking out from the room, and Rong Ruo stepped out just a step behind him. Jun Wu Xie smelled a faint scent, of something that had just been burnt.
“Little Ruo?” Jun Wu Xie stared at the figure of Rong Ruo. It was strange to say the least, but Rong Ruo’s soul looked rather different from her flesh body. She was a little taller, her countenance leaning more towards handsomeness, and what Jun Wu Xie was more curious about was the fact that Rong Ruo was wearing clothes.
“Mm.” Rong Ruo smiled slightly.
Leaning out over the window’s ledge to look outside, Fei Yan was slightly taken aback when he saw Rong Ruo, where he could not help but feel that something was not right. But before he could think deeper into it, Qiao Chu at the side was already shouting at the top of his voice.
“Little Ruo! Why do you have clothes! ?”
Rong Ruo’s spectral body was translucent just like theirs, but she was wearing a suit of clothes. Although they were also translucent, it covered her modesty, not stark naked like Qiao Chu and the others.
“Ye Jie made it for me.” Rong Ruo lowered her head to look at her own clothes, and smiled.
A small figure then came walking out from inside the room. After Ye Gu was injured, Ye Jie had then appeared. Ye Jie stood shyly by the door as she looked at the people outside.
“Huh? Ye Jie! ! I want that too! Me too!” Qiao Chu immediately protested. Although he wasn’t not able to physically feel anything, he still knew how to feel shame you know! ? Being so completely exposed, not to mention going to the Spirit World, he wouldn’t even dare to step out through the door!
Ye Jie looked at Qiao Chu, and then looked over to Jun Wu Yao.
Jun Wu Yao nodded, and Ye Jie then carried the Hell’s Rodent in her hand to come walking out.
The Hell’s Rodent opened his mouth and spat out a set of the Four Treasures of Literacy and a large stack of papers. Ye Jie pulled out a sheet of paper that was bigger than she was on the ground, and knelt right upon it to dip the brush into the ink, to start drawing upon the pure white paper. Sets of clothes were quickly drawn out on the paper. Ye Jie drew very quickly and they were done in great detail. Outer robes, inner robes, pants, shoes, socks, and even jade head pieces were drawn out looking highly lifelike. After finishing with the drawing, Ye Jie picked up a pair of scissors and meticulously cut out the clothes and accessories she had drawn.
(Translator’s Note: Four Treasures of Literacy – 文房四宝 wen2 fang2 shi4 bao3, consists of brush, ink, paper, and ink slab.)
Ye Sha then brought out a little cauldron of fire and after Ye Jie finished cutting out the paper, she looked towards Qiao Chu.
“Birth date and time.”
Qiao Chu quickly related the information and Ye Jie wrote the details on those pieces of paper before she unceremoniously dumped them all into the cauldron of flames.
In the instant that those drawings of clothes were completely burnt, a set of clothes suddenly appeared on Qiao Chu’s body, and even his hair was bound up with a jade headpiece.
Qiao Chu looked in surprise at his own clothes, unable to believe that he was already wearing the clothes just like that.
With Qiao Chu as an example, Fei Yan, Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo all pleaded with Ye Jie to draw them a set as well.
After they were dressed in the clothes “burnt” for them, the group of youths who had been hiding inside the room and afraid to come out finally stepped out from inside, appraising their own clothes, finding them just amazing and highly interesting.
“Eh? Then does that mean we won’t be able to use the magical artifacts anymore?” Qiao Chu was staring at his wrists, and he no longer saw the pair of bracelets that were his Flame Dragon Gauntlets.
“Magical artifacts cannot be brought into the Spirit World, unless they are magical artifacts from the Spirit World.” Ye Jie said unblinkingly from the side.

Chapter 1959: “Making Their Way Towards the Spirits (5)”
Fei Yan walked over to Rong Ruo’s side, and looking at Rong Ruo who was the same height as him felt a little strange.
“Little Ruo, your soul and your flesh body seems to be slightly different…..” Fei Yan looked at that face he was so familiar with. He had clearly seen that face from a very young age till now but though he felt it to be familiar, he also thought it to be a little strangely unfamiliar at the same time.
Rong Ruo turned her eyes away slightly, like she hadn’t noticed and said: “Is that so…..”
“Your height is taller as well.” Fei Yan said as he compared their heights. He was originally about half a head taller than Rong Ruo but he found that they were now the same height.
Rong Ruo did not say anything else but just looked to the side, seemingly deep in thought.
“Is it my turn next?” Jun Wu Xie asked as she looked at Jun Wu Yao.
Her soul was different from the others.
Jun Wu Yao laughed, and then pulled Jun Wu Xie into an embrace, carrying her to walk into a room. “Ye Jie, prepare a set of clothes for Little Xie.” Upon saying that, he walked inside and closed the door.
“Yes, my Lord.” Ye Jie acknowledged, and patted the Hell’s Rodent on its bel
ly. The Hell’s Belly gurgled and then spat out a pile of little boxes of ink.
“What is this?” Qiao Chu squatted on one side and stared at the things curiously. This was the first time that he knew that things used by spirit souls can really be burnt to give it to them.
Ye Jie ignored him and just focused on drawing the clothes. Compared to the clothes on Qiao Chu and the others, Ye Jie was extra meticulous this time with her drawing, not sparing any effort even on the veins of intricate design and detailed embroidery. After sketching out the cutting of the clothes, Ye Jie then reached her hand out to take the little ink boxes. In those boxes of ink, there were pigment of a variety of colours, and Ye Jie then went on to carefully dip into the colours before adding them onto the paper.
“This….. disparity in treatment is a little too different isn’t it?” Qiao Chu could not help but gawk as he stared at Ye Jie carefully and meticulously drawing in the clothes. How could those pieces of art be called mere clothes? They were as detailed as embroidery itself!
Staring at the magnificent and splendid pieces, their colours vibrant and beautiful examples of ladies wear, Qiao Chu then looked at the plain white simple clothes on himself, immediately feeling he wanted to cry.
“Be contented that you even have clothes to wear.” Fei Yan was not bothered by it at all. Ye Jie had drawn him a set of men’s clothing and he was extremely satisfied with them.
Qiao Chu immediately shut his mouth, realizing that it was only through the benefit of Jun Wu Xie that he even had clothes to wear, and was even given the opportunity to continue to cultivate.
Inside the room, Jun Wu Xie stood before Jun Wu Yao, awaiting for Jun Wu Yao to make his move.
Jun Wu Yao slowly stretched his hand out, and his warm hand gradually went close to Jun Wu Xie’s chest.
Jun Wu Xie waited calmly for the moment her soul would leave her body. In actual fact, she was not unfamiliar with this. Back in her past life when she had melded with the little black cat, she had already experienced it before, and knew what it felt like when one’s soul was parted from his flesh body.
Seeing Jun Wu Yao’s palm less a foot away and closing in, the memory of the kind of discomfort in her head made her subconsciously close her eyes, as she waited for the moment when her soul left her body.
But…..
The agony she had expected did not appear, and she did not feel the strange feeling of her soul leaving her body. The gradually rising warmth upon her chest caused Jun Wu Xie to open her eyes.
A large hand was pressed against her slightly rising chest.
“…..” Jun Wu Xie stared speechlessly at that palm. The palm had no intentions of passing through her chest at all, but was just greedy for the touch upon the soft part on her. Jun Wu Xie raised her head and looked at Jun Wu Yao.
The corners of Jun Wu Yao’s lips had a wicked smile hanging and his body was leaning forward slightly, as he said through half narrowed eyes.
“Little Xie has grown up.”
And just as Jun Wu Xie was considering whether to smack that unruly hand away…..
Volume 20
Chapter 1960: “Making Their Way Towards the Spirits (6)”
Jun Wu Yao’s hand suddenly sank right inside Jun Wu Xie’s chest, as if his entire palm had broken up Jun Wu Xie’s chest to pass right into it, but there wasn’t the slightest wound, and not a single trace of blood dripped out.
The queer feeling of one’s soul being touched caused Jun Wu Xie’s body to shiver, like something formless within her was being caught in a grip, and slowly being pulled out from her body bit by bit. The feeling couldn’t be considered to be agonizing, but it made one feel highly uncomfortable, and Jun Wu Yao had merely pulled Jun Wu Xie’s soul out only a little bit.
Jun Wu Xie suddenly felt the world spin around her, as a unsuppressable feeling of nausea surged within her. Her face immediately turned deathly pale, and her body started to retch uncontrollably.
Jun Wu Yao immediately released Jun Wu Xie’s soul right in that instant, quickly hugging Jun Wu Xie who was retching so badly her face turned green straight into his arms.
The temperature had drained out from Jun Wu Xie’s limbs and they felt as if they had been immersed in icy waters.
“It’s alright now….. It’s alright now…..” Jun Wu Yao held Jun Wu Xie tightly in his arms, his large warm palms clasped around her icy little hands, his brows furrowed up tightly as a glint of puzzlement flashed in his eyes.
Such a situation had not occured with Qiao Chu and the rest of the gang.
When Qiao Chu and the others had their souls pulled out, their consciousness had been muddled, and had not shown any signs of discomfort, but Jun Wu Xie was showing such an intense reaction!
Jun Wu Yao’s gaze could not help but fall onto Jun Wu Xie’s pale white face. She was so nauseated she felt like vomiting, but nothing would come out, and her lips were turning purple from being so highly tensed up.
It was after quite a long while before Jun Wu Xie’s unsupressable nausea began to disappear. Her entire body was drained of all strength and she could do nothing but be held by Jun Wu Yao, not having the strength to even move a finger.
“What happened?” Jun Wu Xie asked, clutching at her abdomen. The nauseating feeling was just indescribable. It was not pain, and not really nausea, but more like an uncontrollable discomfort, that made her unable to control her actions.
“It’s nothing.” Jun Wu Yao hugged Jun Wu Xie tight, gently massaging her temples, his eyes filled with doting indulgence. But hidden under that doting indulgence, was a strange emotion.
“Wait a while before we’ll try it again.” Jun Wu Xie opened her mouth to say laboriously, but her eyes were highly determined.
Jun Wu Yao rubbed her little head gently and said with a smile: “Yours is a dual soul constitution and it is not that easy to extract. Rest for a day first and we’ll try it again tomorrow.”
Jun Wu Xie had wanted to say something more but thinking that she did not understand much about this, and since Jun Wu Yao had said that, she chose to believe him. She did not say anything more and just obediently nodded her head.
That feeling was almost too agonizing to describe, and no matter how hard she tried to disregard it, it was carved right into her bones and inscribed into her heart. It might be because she was feeling a little tired, and Jun Wu Xie fell asleep in Jun Wu Yao’s embrace.
Waiting till Jun Wu Xie was sound asleep, Jun Wu Yao laid her upon the bed, and walked out from the room by himself, undispellable lines of worry creasing up his brows.
“Lord Jue, I’ve finished drawing.” Outside the door, Ye Jie was holding a stack of clothes she had drawn. She had drawn them very seriously and she had included everything that was needed from head to toe. Worried that Jun Wu Xie might not have enough to wear, she had even drawn up several sets.
“Young Miss’ birth details…..”
“Don’t need it for now.” Jun Wu Yao opened his mouth to say.
Ye Jie did not probe but just nodded her head and kept the things away properly, thinking in her heart that she could draw some more since there was more time.
“Huh? We’re not going to burn them right away to give them to Little Xie?” Qiao Chu asked, not daring to turn his head to look inside the room, afraid that Jun Wu Yao would strangle him to death.

Chapter 1961: “Making Their Way Towards the Spirits (7)”
Jun Wu Yao said: “A little tired out today. Continue tomorrow.”
Qiao Chu and the others did not suspect anything and just lowered their heads to study their current situation.
Jun Qing stood in the courtyard and said: “We’ll be setting out for the Lower Realm today, regarding Wu Xie’s flesh body…..”
“I will take care of that.” Jun Wu Yao said.
Jun Qing nodded. With the kind of powers Jun Wu Yao possessed, since he was saying that, he was surely completely confident. Jun Qing did not ask anymore on that and just brought th
e flesh bodies of Qiao Chu and the rest of the companions to go make preparations for them.
With their souls taken out from their flesh bodies, although there was no consciousness, all other bodily functions were not affected. They were to be fed liquid foods everyday and compared to the prior conditions Qiao Chu and the others were in before, it was easier to take care of them like this.
Before the team going to the Lower Realm moved out, Jun Wu Xie woke up from her dreams. Accompanied by Jun Wu Yao, they walked to the outside of the city to watch the troops ready themselves.
With this parting, it would be at least a year. Jun Wu Xie was feeling a little reluctant to part as she looked at Jun Qing. Her gaze then fell upon Yue Ye beside her and an idea came into her head.
“Uncle! Wait.” Jun Wu Xie held Yue Ye’s hand and came walking over to Jun Qing.
Yue Ye hid nervously behind Jun Wu Xie and Jun Qing smiled gently as he looked at Yue Ye’s bashful demeanor, thinking it rather amusing.
“Uncle, can I trouble you to bring Little Ye back to the Lin Palace? Little Ye is my disciple and she is still very young, but she possesses great gift in the field of healing. The Middle Realm is afterall still too unstable and she needs a stable environment for her to be able to learn more things. I’ve spoken to Mu Chen about this before. Have him guide Little Ye along after you get back.” Jun Wu Xie looked at the timid Yue Ye. Even though Yue Ye had never said anything about it, Jun Wu Xie could still feel that life back in the Shadow Moon Palace had left a great impact on Yue Ye. Under such circumstances, remaining here might continue to be a form of harm towards Yue Ye so why not give her a complete change of environment to let her start afresh.
In the Lower Realm, no one knows of her past, and she would no longer need to live in fear.
“Alright.” Jun Qing smiled, and he bent his back down to look at Yue Ye hiding behind Jun Wu Xie.
