This Venerable One Really Didn’t Abandon My Familiar - Chapter 71
After Feng Ci and Pei QianYue decided to go to the Sumeru world, they still delayed for quite a while.
Officially speaking, it’s over worry that an unforeseen accident might happen after they leave the cultivation world, so Feng Ci wanted to wait and see progress with the Immortal Alliance reformation first. Then it’s due to concerns that Pei QianYue’s current cultivation was insufficient to support his activities in the Sumeru World properly. Feng Ci found all sorts of reasons, a pile of them. The time of departure was postponed again and again.
“Is Master…… feeling a bit nervous?” Postcoital, Pei QianYue laid on the soft bed in the bedroom with Feng Ci in his arms and raised the same topic once again.
During these days, they had used HeHuan Sect’s secret arts of dual cultivation. Although it couldn’t make Pei QianYue recover his previous cultivation, the improvement was still very major. Even though Feng Ci had said verbally that he wasn’t going to let Pei QianYue harvest cultivation from him, when they truly started practicing, he was extremely accommodating on the contrary, pouring his cultivation into Pei QianYue’s meridians incessantly.
Pampering the other without any bottom limits.
Feng Ci was laying in Pei QianYue’s arms and catching his breath. Hearing these words from him, he frowned grumpily: “It’s not like it’s my first time going there, why would I be nervous?”
Pei QianYue gently stroked his smooth, naked back and didn’t reply.
“I……” Feng Ci mumbled vaguely: “I’m just……”
Even Feng Ci felt that his indecisiveness was extremely laughable. The Heavenly Principles has left. The reformation of the Immortal Alliance has stepped onto the right track. Pei QianYue has also survived that daunting incident without any lasting harm. Everything should have settled by now, but Feng Ci’s heart still remained dangling, unable to calm down no matter what.
Love gives birth to worry. Love gives birth to terror. This saying was not wrong the slightest.
“Heartless and inconsiderate.” Feng Ci turned over, pressed Pei QianYue down beneath him, and bit Pei QianYue indignantly on the mouth: “So eager to play around without a care in the mortal realm. You’re not afraid I’d fall in love with someone else and not want you anymore?”
Pei QianYue smiled, understanding the deep meaning within his words: “So Master is worried I’d fall in love with someone else?”
A slip of the tongue.
Face burning in embarrassment, Feng Ci turned over and wanted to slip away. However, he was grabbed around the waist by Pei QianYue and dragged back.
“It won’t happen.” Pei QianYue slowly traced Feng Ci’s face with his finger as he said seriously: “Loving you is an instinct engraved inside my soul.”
“…… No matter what I encounter, no matter what happens, it will never change.”
Light shining faintly in his eyes, Feng Ci shifted his gaze: “Then what if I change?”
That’s not impossible.
Sealing the soul’s memories and cultivation, essentially, was no different from reincarnation. They will grow up once again in that new world, encounter different people, and perhaps even develop a different personality.
Too many unforeseen events could happen here.
To have himself and Pei QianYue meet once again, and even get together— How slim this probability must be.
Pei QianYue believes that he won’t change, but Feng Ci didn’t have this confidence.
“If Master changes, that just proves that I still haven’t worked hard enough.” Pei QianYue said: “After returning, I’ll definitely repent sincerely and mend my ways to treat Master even better.”
Feng Ci couldn’t help but laugh.
“How did you become such a smooth talker?” He tilted Pei QianYue’s chin up frivolously and feigned a frown: “Where did you learn such flowery words, to even dare use it to placate me?”
“Not placate” Pei QianYue used the position to lower his head and kiss Feng Ci. His voice became very soft: “It’s my heartfelt sincerity.”
Feng Ci has never been able to handle Pei QianYue speaking to him in this kind of tone. Not to mention, this person had already said it like this. To continue hesitating would seem somewhat unreasonable.
“If you want to go, then let’s go. We can go tomorrow.” Feng Ci said: “Let’s pick a wealthy family for you, so you can live a good life.”
Feng Ci did as he promised. Bright and early the next morning, he and Pei QianYue stored their physical bodies in LingWu Mountain and left for the Sumeru World in their Divine Souls.
In the past when Feng Ci visited the Sumeru Worlds and possessed others, he’d always search for a physical body that’s near death to not harm innocent lives.

Pei QianYue has been alone for so many years and never experienced the familial love or friendship possessed by people normally. Feng Ci wanted Pei QianYue to live a little better in the Sumeru World and also didn’t want to be too far from Pei QianYue.
They searched for a long time before finally finding a pair of bodies that met the requirements.
The air was filled with the faint smell of disinfectant. The light of the maternity ward made the place seem deathly white. Nurses in white coats rushed around left and right. No one noticed the two half-transparent figures that appeared silently in the corridor outside the door.
There was one delivery room on both the left and right side of the corridor. Pei QianYue asked: “It’s these two?”
“En.” Feng Ci said: “The two souls that should have been born here have already been sent elsewhere by me. Right now, these two bodies are ours.”
He pushed Pei QianYue in front of a delivery room, raised his hand, and tapped the center of Pei QianYue’s brows.
A golden spell entered the center of his brows.
Pei QianYue asked: “What is this?”
“When you integrate with the body carrying this spell, the appearance of the body will gradually approach our original looks as the body grows up.” Feng Ci paused and said: “Such a beautiful face, you definitely need to come find me. Don’t give such a gift to someone else.”
Pei QianYue nodded: “Okay.”
The smile on Feng Ci’s face subsided. He suddenly leaned in to give Pei QianYue a kiss.
After the deep and prolonged kiss, Feng Ci leaned against Pei QianYue’s forehead and said quietly: “You wait here first. Wait until I enter before you go inside. I want to be gege.”
Pei QianYue broke into a laugh: “It’s only a moment or so. Is there any difference? ”
“No, no. Older by 15 minutes is still older.” Feng Ci patted Pei QianYue’s hair crown: “Be good.”
Despite having said that, Feng Ci was in no hurry to leave.
He stared unblinkingly at Pei QianYue, as if trying to carve that face into the depths of his soul.
Pei QianYue originally thought he’d still say something else to him, but Feng Ci didn’t say anything. After a while, he took a deep breath, turned around, and passed through the tightly closed door of the delivery room.
The clear crisp sound of an infant’s cry was heard from inside the room.
This was truly a very fantastical experience. Since knowing Feng Ci, Pei QianYue has never even seen how Feng Ci looked when he cried. Even though sometimes in bed, Pei QianYue might push him until he couldn’t take it anymore, Feng Ci would simply glare viciously at him with reddened eyes.
There was no crying.
Who knows when he’ll be able to see that.
Thinking this, Pei QianYue stood outside the door and listened for a while before finally walking slowly into the other delivery room.
A moment later, the sound of another infant’s wail was heard in the hallway.
The two wailing sounds rose and fell, echoing within the corridor.
However, Feng Ci still miscalculated.
Although the two soul-possessed babies were born in adjacent delivery rooms on the same day, month, and year, the world that they chose was an extremely well-developed society. Also the location was a metropolis with a huge population. There were plenty of children born on the same day.
Five years passed in a blink of an eye. After the two babies were brought home by their respective parents, they never saw each other again.
On this one day, it was the first day of kindergarten. Bright and early in the morning, the sound of crying and wailing outside the kindergarten was deafening to the ears.
The little babies, who just entered the Small class, weren’t accustomed to leaving their parents. When one started crying, the entire group of babies would start wailing hysterically.
Very juvenile.
The 5 year old kid Feng Ci clung to the classroom window of the Big class and thought this while watching the spectacle of the flustered adults outside.
Kindergarten was clearly so fun.
“Boss!” Someone yelled behind him. Feng Ci turned his head around. A chubby boy ran noisily towards him: “I bought a new toy for you to play with.”
The little Feng Ci was considered tall for kids his age. He was also good-looking. Since the start of kindergarten, he’s been the leader of the class.
Feng Ci looked at the toy ‘presented’ to him by his little follower and shook his head: “I already played with this before. It’s not fun.”
“I picked for a very long time.” The little follower lowered his head in disappointment and asked: “Then what does boss like?”
The soft dango was stumped by this question and furrowed his brows earnestly.
He couldn’t even verbalize what he liked.
Things that people of the same age liked, Feng Ci didn’t seem to hold much interest. Even the teachers often say that Feng Ci showed too much maturity for kids his age.
So mature that it seemed a bit out of place.
Right at this time, a car stopped at the entrance of the kindergarten.
Not long afterwards, a tiny little figure was carried out by someone from the passenger seat.
That child was petite and small, looking about the same as the 3-4 year old kids of the Small class. He had long hair that reached his shoulders, which were pulled into a small ponytail to the back of his head. There was even a cute little blue hair clip pinned there.
Delicate and pretty.
A fresh new face.
He didn’t cry or make a fuss. Head slightly lowered, he was carried into the kindergarten by a young woman.
When passing the classroom of the Big class, that child suddenly raised his head, as if sensing something, and met the eyes of Feng Ci, who was next to the window.
His eyes were very bright, the color of his pupils lighter than normal kids, like the colored glass that Feng Ci had seen before, glistening and very beautiful.
Feng Ci was entranced by the sight.
It wasn’t until the other was carried away by the woman, who had continued to walk forward, and disappeared completely that Feng Ci finally returned from his daze.
“I like that.” Little Feng Ci reached out his chubby little hand, pointed at the back view of the woman at the end of the corridor. He said with a cute baby voice: “He’s so pretty.”
Little Feng Ci fully utilized his position as the boss and sent his little followers to search the entire kindergarten. Finally, he retrieved information about that child.
The new kid was called Pei QianYue. He just transferred here and was in the Middle class.
However, the Middle class and the Big class weren’t on the same floor. Class was about to start very soon so Feng Ci didn’t have the time to find him.
Since little Feng Ci could remember, he has never been so restless and disturbed before. Even when the teacher asked him to lead the entire class in a game, he was distracted, as if his entire heart was completely absorbed by that pretty little girl he saw in the morning.
—In the mindset of a little kid, long hair meant a little girl.
A mere five year old kid naturally didn’t know what kind of feeling that was. However, since seeing the other in the morning, little Feng Ci only had one thought in his head.
Want to see him. Want to speak to him. Want to get to know him.
Like a reunion after a long period of separation.
Yearning incessantly, Feng Ci finally endured until free time. However, because he had no energy this entire day, he was called to the office by the teacher. After dealing with the teacher and being dismissed, a little follower then came running in search of him.
“Boss, Xiao Pang got beaten up!” Xiao Pang was the chubby little kid that gave Feng Ci the gift in the morning.
At this time, however, Feng Ci was in no mood to care about his little followers and answered casually: “Go tell the teacher.”
“But……” The little follower held a blue hair clip and handed it to Feng Ci: “He did it to grab this……”
It was Pei QianYue’s hair clip.
Feng Ci: “……”
When little Feng Ci arrived, the battle had already ended.
Xiao Pang sat crouched inside a sandbox, pursing his lips as if he were about to cry.
The words of ‘like’ that Feng Ci said this morning were misunderstood by the chubby little kid to liking the hair clip on Pei QianYue’s head. As a result, while Feng Ci was called away by the teacher, Xiao Pang went to steal Pei QianYue’s hair clip to gain Feng Ci’s favor.
Unexpectedly, he ended up getting beaten up instead.
Seeing Feng Ci coming over, the chubby little kid acted like he saw his savior: “Boss, he pushed me!”
The chubby little kid pointed a finger at the tiny little figure in the corner. He held out his other hand. There was a large area of red on his palm; most likely it was scraped when he had fallen.
Compared to Xiao Pang, Pei QianYue completely didn’t look like someone who had his hair clip stolen.
The petite little child hugged his legs and sat against the wall, expression calm. However, his hair had fallen down completely now, covering half of his little face. Hearing the voices, he looked up. A pair of bright shiny eyes looked at Feng Ci.
Even prettier than when he had his hair up.
Feng Ci was stunned for a moment, his head instantly going blank.
“He’s so mean. I only wanted to borrow his hair clip for a moment and he pushed me into the sandbox…..” The chubby little kid was still holding onto Feng Ci and complaining: “Boss, you have to stand up for me!”
Little Feng Ci forced himself to focus.
As the boss, normally it was only Feng Ci who went around bullying others with his little followers. Where’s the logic in letting his little followers be bullied by the newcomer.
With this thought, Feng Ci walked in front of Pei QianYue with huge steps. He cleared his throat and was just about to speak.
Then he saw Pei QianYue blink a few times and lower his head; the rims of the other’s eyes slowly turned red.
Drip.
A teardrop rolled downwards silently.
Feng Ci: “……”
Xiao Pang, who was just beaten up by this guy: “???”
