"Yes… That's right… You can touch them all you want… Hic!"

"It's your reward for killing the demon… Hic!" Qi Fang spoke in a dazed voice as Yuan's face buried deeper and deeper into her bosoms.

This went on for a few moments until Yuan all of Yuan's movements suddenly halted.

"Hey… What's wrong? Hic!"

Yuan suddenly stood up and looked at Qi Fang with a tranquil expression on his face.

"You… should probably leave before we both make a grave mistake," he said in a calm voice.

"W-What?" Qi Fang's eyes widened with shock.

This shock snapped her out of her drunken state for a brief moment, but this brief moment of clarity was all that was needed for Qi Fang to realize what was happening and made a decision.

She quickly got out of the bed and put on her clothes before running out of his room with a flushed face.

Once she was gone, Yuan sat on the bed and smiled, "What a troublesome child. I hope this will teach you to not put everything in your mouth and that all actions will have consequences."

He closed his eyes and began to cultivate.

Meanwhile, inside his consciousness, Yuan sighed in relief.

"Thank you…" He bowed to the Divine Paragon, who'd just taken over his body.

"Why are you thanking me?"

"For taking over my body and stopping me, who cannot control myself right now."

The Divine Paragon started laughing.

He then said, "I told you, I cannot take over your body. I am merely a fragment of your memories. You acted on your own just now, just like when you fought and killed the demon. Perhaps your instincts kicked in or something."

"How is that even possible when I am not conscious?" Yuan frowned.

"Reincarnation is a wonderful thing, but it is also something that we do not fully comprehend, and you're no ordinary human."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke, "Since you're here, can you tell me about the Demonic Realm? You kind of left me hanging last time."

"I don't have the answers to your questions. If you want them, go to the Demonic Realm."

"That's clearly bullshit. Why else would you say that something bad will happen if I don't return?"

"Like I'd already said— it's probably your instincts that's telling you."

"Anyways, it's about time I go. I won't be able to save you a second time, so if you end up in that state again, you're going to have to take full responsibility."

"I know…" Yuan sighed.

"Do you really?" A mysterious smile appeared on the Divine Paragon's face as he disappeared.

The following morning, Qi Fang woke up in her bed to a head-splitting headache.

"Shit… I drank too much yesterday…"

She sat up with a painful expression on her face.

Once her head cleared a little bit, memories of what happened last night began flowing inside her head.

"S-Shit…"

"Fuck… Did I really do such a thing?! No way!"

Qi Fang quickly got dressed and rushed to Yuan's place.

"H-Hey! Wake up! Yuan! We need to talk!" Qi Fang banged on the door as she shouted in an urgent manner.

"Senior Qi, I am sorry, but can you leave me alone for a while? We can talk later… Once I fix myself…"

"L-Last night! Nothing happened last night, do you hear me?! I was not in the right state of mind! It was a mistake!"

"What mistake?" Qi Man's voice suddenly resounded behind Qi Fang, giving her the scare of her life.

"G-Grandfather! Nothing!" Qi Fang turned around with a nervous look on her face, but when she saw Chu Liuxiang behind him, she became even more nervous.

"L-Liuxiang?! W-What are you doing here?!" She stuttered nervously.

"I am here to see Yuan, of course," she said in a calm voice.

"Speaking of Yuan, why are you standing out here? I thought we told you to watch over him. How can you do that when you're out here and he's in there?" Qi Huan said to her.

"I-I left for just a minute, okay?! I made sure to watch him properly! I swear!"

"Whatever…" The grandparents were suspicious of her weird behavior, but they didn't think too much of it.

Meixiu went to the door and knocked on it, "Yuan? Are you awake?"

"M-Meixiu?! Is that you, Meixiu?! What are you doing here?!" Yuan's panicked voice resounded inside the building.

"I am also here as well!" Chu Liuxiang said loudly.

"L-Lulu as well…?"

"Can you open the door and let us in? We want to see if you're okay." Meixiu continued.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Yuan sighed, "Sorry, but I am a little sick right now. Can you all leave me alone for a few days?"

"You're sick? How so?"

"..."

Meixiu turned to look at Qi Man and the others and said to them, "Can you leave us alone for a moment?"

"Alright. If you need anything, let us know."

"Thank you." Meixiu nodded.

Once they left, Meixiu continued, "Yuan, it's just me and Chu Liuxiang now. You can tell us what happened."

Yuan sighed again before speaking, "I consumed a demon core, but this demon core was a little special, so I am now experiencing a little backlash. My mind is not in the right state right now, and I am afraid of hurting you and the others, so until I take care of this condition, I should not get close to anyone."

"I see… So that's what happened… Are you in pain right now?" Meixiu then asked.

"No, I am fine. I should be healthy again in a few days."

"I understand. If you need anything, we will be right out here."

"Thank you, Meixiu, and Lulu, for coming all the way out here."

"Anything for you, Yuan." Chu Liuxiang smiled.

"Anyways, what should we tell the others? I don't think we should let them know that he consumed a demon core…"

"Yes, you're right. Let's think of something.." Meixiu agreed with Chu Liuxiang, and the two of them began thinking of an excuse for Yuan's condition.
