The donkey was behind Yun Yanli. It seemed to be tied or unable to walk properly. When it saw Gu Xijiu and Zhu Duqing, it immediately screamed. Its two big eyes blinked for help.

Yun Yanli noticed Gu Xijiu, and he looked surprised. "Xijiu, why are you here?"

Next, he glanced at Di Fuyi with darkened eyes. "Your Highness Nianmo!"

Di Fuyi flicked his sleeve and smiled calmly. "Your Highness Yun, how are you doing?!

Yun Yanli looked conflicted, but very soon, he put a smile on his face. "I am good. Where have you been over the past year? Xijiu and I have been looking for you! Fortunately, you are alive."

His eyes turned to Guardian Jin and Guardian Hua. These two people look like they just came out from the swamp. Their faces are so greasy, though. "Who are they?"

"They are Fuyi's friends," Gu Xijiu replied. She then asked, "Yanli, why are you here?"

Yun Yanli sighed. "I have been looking for you. I was afraid that you had met with an accident. I happened to pass by the swamp today and noticed that something was odd, so I rushed over. I didn't expect to meet you. It is such a coincidence."

His eyes then fell on Zhu Duqing. "I didn't expect Mr. Zhu to be here too."

Zhu Duqing proudly smiled. "The world is my home. Why is it so strange to see me here? And why are you giving my donkey a difficult time?"

Yun Yanli smiled calmly. "I couldn't help myself. I didn't know that this donkey is Mr. Zhu's spiritual pet. I am sorry about that. When I came here, I bumped into this donkey. As it was quite special, I had given it an unnatural amount of attention. As a result, it was offended and kicked me."

...

"Why are you staring at me?"

"Is there anything wrong for me to stare at you?"

"Bastard, I will kick you if you stare again!"

"Do you dare to kick me? I will lock your legs!

"Bastard, I doubt if you dare to even come near me! I have my gang! Master, please come and help me!"

That was the conversation between Yun Yanli and the donkey earlier.

Yun Yanli lifted his sleeves, and the four hooves of the donkey regained their freedom. It immediately ran to Zhu Duqing's side, and then looked at Yun Yanli angrily.

Yun Yanli did not care about it. His eyes returned to the swamp. "Xijiu, did you just get out of there? Do you know what happened in the swamp?"

"I think it was a natural disaster. There appeared to be meteorite-like fireballs falling like rain in there. The creatures inside were all killed."

When Yun Yanli and Gu Xijiu were separated, he did not know that she already knew everything about him, so when they met again, Gu Xijiu continued to pretend as though she did not know anything. She chatted with him like a friend.

Moreover, Yun Yanli did not know the identity of the Devil King, and Di Fuyi did not look the part right now, so Yun Yanli would not be aware of that information.

Yun Yanli's eyes slightly flashed. He still had the intention to pursue Gu Xijiu. Hence, before his true identity was revealed, he really did not want to offend her.

Di Fuyi's arm hugged Gu Xijiu's waist. "Xijiu, I'm tired. Let's go."

Gu Xijiu nodded and said goodbye to Yun Yanli. Would Yun Yanli let them go so easily?

He smiled and spoke, "Xijiu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to talk to you." He then turned to Di Fuyi and said, "Your Highness Nianmo, Mr. Zhu, there are many questions that I would like to ask both of you. Let's go to Le Guo City and have a drink together, shall we? Today is the day that there will be blood rain. Hence, we should go to the city to avoid the rain."
