At this moment, feeling the man's tight embrace and smelling the familiar fresh scent on his body, Xi Yue's originally panicked heart slowly calmed down.
She reached out and hugged Ji Mingyu tightly, saying softly, "I'm fine. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Ji Mingyu let go of her slightly, checked her up and down several times, and made sure that she was okay, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You activated the Netherworld Chain, did something happen?"
The jade token is called the Netherworld Chain and can change into various shapes, but no matter what shape it changes into, it is connected to Ji Mingyu's soul.
As long as Xi Yue injects his spiritual consciousness into the Netherworld Chain, Ji Mingyu can sense it even in the divine realm above the Nine Heavens.
Xi Yue recounted what happened just now when she saw a man in a red robe.
Then he frowned and said, "I don't know if it's an illusion, and I seemed to hear him say something to me just now, but now I can't remember it at all."
Ji Mingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the end of the sea, a cold and sinister red flashed in his eyes.
Looking down at Xi Yue's worried eyes, he raised a mocking and contemptuous smile and said slowly, "Don't worry, he's just a clown. I will make him pay the price."

The next morning, Xiyue was awakened early by the noise.
Ji Mingyu held her in his arms with some annoyance: "I forgot to use the soundproof barrier."
As he spoke, the barrier was raised, isolating all the noise and bustle outside, leaving only the warmth and tranquility that belonged to the two of them.
The man lowered his head and kissed the girl's soft lips. His voice was hoarse and full of lust and tenderness: "Sleep a little longer?"
Before Xi Yue could answer, the door of the room was pushed open.
Xiao Chi rushed in excitedly, shouting something. Xi Yue knew without hearing what he was saying that he wanted her to go with him to watch the fish festival on Wenqing Island.
When I rushed in, I saw Ji Mingyu hugging Xi Yue, and the two of them were very close to each other.
Xiao Chi's steps suddenly stopped, and he quickly covered his face and ran out: "Sister and brother-in-law, I didn't mean it!"
When she ran to the door, she suddenly remembered something and poked her head in and said, "Brother-in-law, Daddy told me to watch you on the way and not let you bully your sister."
Ji Mingyu frowned and asked grimly, "So?"
Xiaochi shrank back and laughed, "So I usually don't bother my sister and brother-in-law, but today I want my sister to accompany me to watch the fish festival, so you don't occupy my sister. Otherwise, I will go to daddy to complain! Although daddy may not be able to beat my brother-in-law, but it's our parents' order and the matchmaker's words. Don't blame me if my brother-in-law can't marry my sister for a hundred years!"
Ji Mingyu's eyes suddenly turned so dark that ink seemed to drip out of them, but he had nothing to say and did not dare to take any action.
Of course he was not afraid of Yun Tianyi, and Xiao Chi could crush him to death with just a flick of her finger. However, damn parents' orders and matchmaker's words, Xiao Chi was right in saying every word.
Xi Yue burst out laughing. It was so rare for her to see Ji Mingyu being humiliated.
Should I say that Xiaochi is truly worthy of being my younger brother

When we walked out of the inn, the whole island had turned into a sea of bustle and joy.
The residents of the island all wore new clothes, the women wore flower crowns on their heads, and the men wore headdresses made of fish bones. They lined up and marched towards the northwest.
What surprised Xiyue was that this direction was exactly the direction where she saw the tall tower and the man in the dark red robe yesterday. (To be continued)
