The door opened with a creak and then was carefully closed again, but no one walked through. Then the floor creaked softly.

Changyi had just left not long ago, saying he needed to take care of some business outside. Ji Yunhe was settling into her bed when an invisible Luo Jinsang slowly revealed herself. She flashed a bright smile and gave Ji Yunhe another hug.

"Yunhe, are you surprised that I came to see you again?"

Ji Yunhe was indeed a little surprised. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "No one stopped you?"

"No one stopped me." Luo Jinsang laughed.

"Who can see me?"

"Then how come you couldn't sneak in before?"

"Hrm..." Luo Jinsang scratched her head.

"There was always a magic seal around the island, today it's gone." Ji Yunhe felt warm and fuzzy inside, and smiled to herself.

"So why are you here disturbing my sleep?" Luo Jinsang took out a package.

"See, back in the Demon Valley you told me to take this tea set. I've been keeping it for you this whole time."

Ji Yunhe looked down and past memories came flooding back. Although there was not much to reminisce about, she did feel a bit nostalgic. She held the tea set and gently stroked it.

"Jinsang, thank you."

Luo Jinsang scratched her head and said, "It's just a tea set, no need to thank me. But keeping them safe was quite a challenge."

Ji Yunhe was amused. "Just a worthless tea set. Did someone try to smash it?"

"Yup!" Luo Jinsang said angrily.

"That baldy, Kongming, was so awful! After leaving you six years ago, I carried this tea set and searched everywhere for him. After I found him, he not only had Qu Xiaoxing with him, he had also saved the jiaoren." Thinking about the cliff under the moon that night and the sword, Ji Yunhe still felt a pinch inside her heart.

"The monk said he fished the jiaoren out of the river, and that he was dying with no will to live. He only squeezed out a few words saying he was…"

Luo Jinsang paused, "was wounded by you... I certainly did not believe it, but that baldy believed everything. After the jiaoren got a little better, that baldy learned the details and was so angry he wanted to smash the tea set. He also accused me of being an accomplice to evil by keeping it with me!"

"Ha!" Luo Jinsang sneered.

"This tea set did nothing wrong, he had no reason to smash it. Also, how could you be evil!?"

Ji Yunhe laughed while stroking a tea cup. "Right, what can smashing a tea set do. If I were the monk, I would have killed me by now."

"You're talking nonsense again!" Luo Jinsang said.

"I helped you and explained to him. Before I left the Demon Valley, you told me to take the tea set and wait for you outside, and that Lin Haoqing was going to give you the position of the Valley Master, and that you were going to set the fish free when the time was right." Ji Yunhe thought for a while. Oh, so that was what she told him.

"But the monk mocked me, saying your statement was strange as hell and didn't make any logical sense. He said you were so bad that you even lied to me." Ji Yunhe touched her teacup.

"And you? What did you say?"

"I yelled at him and left." Ji Yunhe laughed and shook her head.

"You yelled at him, but where could you go?"
