Enjoy ~ <3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For the next 6 hours, the two of them went at it like beasts. They spent an hour doing it under the bridge since it was a new experience until Cliona decided they should go to a more secluded place so she can let her voice out without any worry.

For the next 5 hours after that, they did it in the huge mansion in Yuji's inner world. No specific room, they just did it wherever and just as she had expected, it was more unbelievable than it already was during their year together.

They did it so much they lost track of time and almost failed to catch the last bus that was on its way to Yuji's village.

~~~

Making it at the last second, Yuji found a practically full bus except for the single seat in the back.

Cliona had stayed in his inner world to rest so without any worry about where she would sit he made his way to the back and got himself comfortable.

People were surprised to see such a handsome young man come into a bus going towards the villages but Yuji simply ignored their stares as he closed his eyes to take a nap because he knew the bus would make a lot of stops before heading towards his village.

~~~

The bus came to an abrupt stop that made it jerk causing Yuji's eyes to jolt open.

He looked around and found the bus empty, all other passengers had been dropped off leaving him and the driver but the said driver had already gotten out to check what the problem was.

As Yuji got up and walked to the front to leave since it was around the time the old man would come he said. "Cliona, are you up?"

'Yes, I am. I have been for about an hour, cleaning up the house.'

'Alright, can you tell me how talented the bus driver is? I might have a job for him in the future if he's decent enough.'

'Yuji...don't tell me...you swing that way too??'

Yuji stopped in his tracks as he immediately thought to himself.

'No no noooo! I'm a firm believer in coochie supremacy! No offence to those that do but I would never consider any part of my gender as sexy. I'm not going to do anything sexual or intimate in the slightest with him.'

'Phew, I was scared for a second there. The image of you and hi-'

'Ahhh please stop! I dont want to picture it!' He clutched his head in an attempt to rid himself of the thoughts as he thought so to her.

'Hahaha! Alright, alright, I'll stop. The man's nothing special, he's average at best.'

Veins popped up on his forehead as he realised that she was just teasing him and a faint wicked light shone in his eyes as he said. 'No mo dick.'

'W-wait, Yuji, let's talk abo-.'

'No mo dick.'

'I'm so-'

'NO MO DICK.'

Cliona went on to sulk and fake cry to herself trying to get him to feel bad, sadly he wouldn't fall so easily.

'Anyway, I was hoping for better talent but it will do.'

'Ah, Yuji, don't just ignore me like that!'

Still ignoring her he walked out of the bus to the driver. "Uncle, what's wrong with the bus?"

The man was a middle-aged looking man who stood at 170cm. He wore a lime green top with black pants and sneakers that looked old but well taken care of.

He had dark hair, a few wrinkles on his face and bags under his eyes but he still kept a smile as he said. "Ah, it's fine young man I'll have it fixed in a bit. You can go back to rest."

With a smile of his own Yuji replied. "Don't worry, Uncle. My village isn't far from here so I can just run. Here, the full payment." He said as he took out his money, showed it to him then walked back in to put it where the rest of the money was from other passengers as he thought. 'The man looks exhausted and overworked, and yet he's telling me to go back to sleep. I'm not the best at judging character but he should be fine.'

The uncle was about to protest because he didn't want to inconvenience Yuji like that but Yuji spoke faster as he began running away.

"I'll call you sometime next month for something interesting Uncle. It's a promise so keep an eye on your phone. I enjoyed the ride, goodbye!"

As Yuji shouted so, he held up the drivers business card that he found where the money was, his name was Zhu Kun.

Looking at Yuji's back as he ran, a helpless smile stretched across his face as he said. "Kids these days...I wonder if my child will grow to be like that young man, he seems well mannered."

Meanwhile, Yuji ran along the road as fast as he could with a faint smile across his face and an extra skip in his step as he enjoyed the wind blowing against his body.

It took him no more than a few minutes to reach the area he estimated Gu Xuan would arrive at, and he was right.

Standing out in the darkened sky was a single, circular patch of clear sky. Light rained down onto the ground and from it, a white-robed figure descended.

Anyone else might assume such a phenomenon was because some kind of heavenly judgement would be handed out by God and would immediately run the other way or if they were brave...or arguably stupid, broadcast it to the world but not Yuji.

The figure turned itself to face Yuji who stood in the middle of the road with a completely different expression painted on his countenance.

He looked disinterested in everything as if nothing mattered.

The figure stared at him, frozen In place for a moment before it flew down, straight towards him and within moments arrived, hovering in front of Yuji whose expression stayed static.

As the figure stopped in front of him Yuji was able to identify him as Gu Xuan, he had long white hair and a long white beard with a wrinkled face.

"Young man, normally when you see a flying man don't you think of running?" Gu Xuan asked as he internally questioned Yuji's sanity.

Maintaining his indifferent look Yuji replied. "Well, normally that should be the case but I couldn't care less about what happens to me now. Tell me old man after losing everything you cared about would you care about some flying old man?"

Gu Xuan strokes at his beard for a moment, contemplating Yuji's reply the after a few moments said. "True, I really wouldn't care much about what happens to me. I understand your pain. I'm sorry for your loss."

Just as he caught himself in sympathising with Yuji, he remembered his purpose of being here.

"Young man will you allow me to check your body I need to confirm something?" He asked rather politely

Raising his eyebrow at him Yuji replied. "Even if I didn't want you to would you let me go? Just do what you want, I doubt I could get away from a flying old man even if I tried."

Gu Xuan couldn't help but laugh at Yuji's answer, he wasn't expecting him to be so straightforward, especially considering the circumstances but considering where he was coming from, he could understand why.

"Hahaha, that's true. Even if you refused I would have still checked. I was just being polite and by the way, my name is Gu Xuan."

As he replied, Gu Xuan grabbed Yuji's wrist to inspect his body and after a few moments, he spoke up. "I was just passing by this remote planet so I didn't expect to find such a treasure. Young man, you have an Ancient Yang Body which is very rare and its owners are very hard to find. This body doesn't even appear in 100 million years even more rarely in remote planets like this. I can also tell that you also have a very strong but strange bloodline that I cannot identify but your body is still too weak to use it."

Yuji silently stared at him. for a few moments before saying. "That sounds all fancy and pretty but I doubt something that powerful doesn't come with problems."

Gu Xuan nods his head as he said. "You are right, if anyone from the place I'm from finds out about this, you will be hunted for the rest of your life. Without any place to hide they will eventually catch you and females may use you as a human cauldron while the men may try to steal your physique for themself."

Yuji frowned at the answer. Sure he had read about things like that but hearing it when the situation applied to himself, was on a whole other level of disturbing.

"Is there anything negative about my physique on its own?" He asked to make sure there was nothing he didn't know about.

Stroking his beard with his other hand Gu Xuan replied. "Ah, about that, if your Yang Qi builds up too much then eventually you will die. It's even possible that you will explode from it."

Once again, the fact that he was hearing all this for himself brought a weird amount of discomfort to him making him sigh helplessly as he said. "Then what do I do about it?"

In that instant, a light shone in Gu Xuan's eyes and a grin stretched across his wrinkled skin as he said. "If you come with me to become my student I can protect you while also teaching you to make use of your physique."

"What an opportunistic old man. I guess I have no choice. Considering you said Yang then it must mean I need to use Yin from women to balance my Yang but I don't know how so I can only follow you." He answered

Gu Xuan nods in satisfaction at Yuji's answer, relieved that it wasn't a hassle to convince him to come along with him.

"There is a place called the Realm of God's where the strongest people in this universe reside. That's where I'm from, I am a Divine Realm Cultivator. By following me to cultivate sooner or later you will be one of the people standing at the top, I assure you. I have lived for 300 million years and I am nearing the end of my life so I needed to find a student to inherit my skills and knowledge. You are perfect to fill the role so I'm quite grateful that you agreed so easily."

Yuji chuckled hearing the old man's age. "Pfft...So you're not just any old man you're an ancient old man." Without letting Gu Xuan reply, seeing as he was a bit upset being called an ancient old man Yuji bowed slightly as he said. "This student, Ye Yuji greets teacher."

Gu Xuan's expression returned to normal as he hummed in satisfaction. "Hmm...I'll let you off for calling me ancient because you recognised me as your teacher, now let's go."

Just as Gu Xuan was about to fly off with him Yuji interrupted." Wait, Teacher can we pass by my village? I want to see my grandfathers grave since I won't be able to come to visit for some time."

Gu Xuan silently stared at him for a moment before moving with a faint smile as he said. "Sure, I dont mind."
