Xiao has had the same dream for several days in a row.

He kind of, well, he…missed him a lot.

Because it was a dream, people could always easily let go of the burdens and shackles that they could not let go of in reality. The young Yasha walked towards the white-haired boy as he did every time in the past and hugged him from behind.

"Xiao." The white-haired boy called his name softly.

The name "Xiao" is the name given to Jinpeng Yaksha by the Rock King to protect him. For the current Yaksha boy, Xiao is not his name.

"Call me Jin Peng, my name is Jin Peng."

The hot body pressed against his back, and the strange breath brushed his ears. The boy's hands suddenly trembled, his beautiful blue-purple eyes drooped, and his body trembled slightly.

"You, finally told me your name. I'm very happy, but I have to go." The white-haired boy tried to pry open the hands around his waist, but failed after several attempts. He had no choice but to adjust his back to front, and under Xiao's surprised gaze, he decisively passed his hands under his armpits and gave him an upright and pure "hug of friendship".

"If you are okay, I will..." The white-haired boy leaned his head gently on Xiao's shoulder, then pushed him away cruelly, and fell into the abyss that suddenly appeared behind him.

"It hurts! Immortal, let go!" Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, only to see Xingqiu's helpless eyes. He looked down and found that he had already grasped Xingqiu's hand until it turned red.

"......You're awake." Hu Tao looked at the haggard Xiao with a melancholy face. He had already run across most of Liyue without caring about anything, but it seemed that he still couldn't find any news related to Ling Mengxue. But where the pure water spirit disappeared, it seemed that the same mysterious power appeared where he fell that day. That energy was neither from the devil nor from the gods, but a kind of energy they had never seen before. It was probably that kind of energy that saved Xiao.

"Are you having a nightmare? The wound on your shoulder hasn't healed completely yet. Be careful or it will tear again if you move around." Bai Zhu glanced at Xingqiu, who had a look of grievance on his face, and carefully re-bandaged Xiao's wound. Normally, an injury of this severity should take another day or two to heal, but it's not known whether this young immortal often disobeyed the doctor's advice and moved around blindly, causing the wound to tear again.

"You are injured and can't eat anything greasy. I heard that you like almond tofu, so I asked someone to go back to the inn and find Yan Xiao to make it for you. Eat a little." Bai Zhu shook his head. Xiao's physical condition was not good. The several times extra spiritual energy was not completely absorbed. He also got out of bed without permission to look for Ling Mengxue, which further aggravated the deterioration of his wound.

"There have been some emergencies in Liyue recently. The pure water elves, the fire-blast trees and the ancient rock dragon lizards have all disappeared. Only the Dragon King Rhodo is still there, but he has also disappeared." Xiangling has also heard about the strange things happening in Liyue these days.

"This matter is indeed unusual. According to the information provided by Ganyu, all the monsters near Dihua Island have disappeared. The strangest thing is that no monsters have approached that place since three days ago." Xingqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that this young immortal must have mistaken him for Ling Mengxue, because his figure did look somewhat similar to his.

"Is it possible that some kind-hearted person is planning to give you a permanent vacation?" Hu Tao had heard that Xiao had been exorcising monsters in Ogihua Island. Now that there were no monsters in Ogihua Island, did that mean that the young immortal could naturally take an extra-long vacation?

Xiao looked at the almond tofu in front of him. It was a bowl of delicious sweet food with the fragrance of almonds.

"Tell me, why is it that it is called almond tofu but does not contain any tofu at all?" the white-haired boy once asked him, holding his chin and blinking his eyes.

Immortal Xiao never expected that what was waiting for him was a question that he could not answer. Even though he was an immortal who had lived for more than 2000 years, he did not know why there was no tofu in almond tofu.

"You once told me that almond tofu tastes like a sweet dream." The white-haired boy smiled and snatched the almond tofu from Xiao's hand. He picked up the small spoon in the bowl and gently scooped a small piece into his mouth.

"So that's how it is. Sugar can indeed make people feel relaxed and happy. I didn't expect that you, who have a stern face all day, would also yearn for the sweetness of a dream." The white-haired boy smiled faintly. At that time, Xiao suddenly felt that he seemed to know everything, but still chose to smile at him.

"Dreams are beautiful but fragile. It's never easy to keep them." Thinking of the dreams of the past few days, Xiao sighed.

"If one dream is shattered, just create another one." When Hu Tao heard Xiao say such gloomy and negative words again, she immediately cheered him up.

"The Emperor just sent a message that Liyue is now facing unpredictable natural disasters. The immortals will once again join forces with the people to fight the enemy. The overall command will be temporarily shared by him and Ningguang." Ying appeared here at some point.

"I think Ningguang must be very depressed now. She didn't expect to be fooled by Prince Yan. It seems that the era of rule by man is about to end before it even begins." Paimeng said seriously.

“Who could have thought that the usually diligent Prince Yan would actually try to escape by faking his death? If it weren’t for the injury of Immortal Xiao and this abnormal situation in Liyue, I’m afraid we would still be kept in the dark until the end.” Xiangling didn’t expect that the commotion would end like this.

"At present, have you found any information about the enemy?" Xingqiu asked while rubbing his red arm.

"I heard that the Naruto Dragon King did not disappear completely like those pure water elves, but there is still a residual breath. It's just that the breath seems to be covered by something. Maybe if we can find the Naruto Dragon King, we can find the enemy." Xiangling shared the information she had searched for in the past few days.

"Although I don't have any intelligence about the enemy, I heard some news about the girl in white." Ying hesitated for a moment and decided to speak out.

"It is said that the girl in white captured many Abyss Mages along the way... but she didn't seem to kill them. There were witnesses who saw the girl in white releasing a frightened Abyss Mage and then going to Tianqiu Valley. Soon after, news came that the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard had disappeared. Do you think this girl is Xiaoxue?" Ying felt that it was incredible for her to make such a guess. She had been in contact with Xiaoxue for quite some time, but even if she had become a girl, she shouldn't have such a cruel and ruthless character.

"Do you... really think that could be Snow White?" When Xiao heard the words "girl in white" at first, his eyes raised, but then fell down again.

"Although Xiaoxue is strong, I can't imagine him killing the four elemental masters by himself within a few days." Ying answered honestly.
