The cub was quick to bring Priest Yunyou to the side hall.

The cub was so anxious that, while on their way there, he already told Priest Yunyou the entire situation. Of course, he did not mention his interactions with the ghost. He just spoke in a vague way, saying that he believed there was a supernatural being around him, and that he hoped the Taoist priest could help let him meet her.

When the Taoist priest entered the side hall, Su Xi toughened herself to look in his direction, only to see that it was a white-haired Taoist priest with the demeanor of a transcendent being. With a thin face, a pair of bright and piercing eyes, his appearance really did give off the feeling that he knew everything on Earth.

After the Taoist priest walked inside, he looked straight into the air, and from Su Xi's perspective, it was as if he was looking directly at her.

Su Xi's back suddenly felt cold, it felt a bit like this otherworldly priest had discovered she was not a person of their world.

Lu Huan walked to one side of the table, pouring tea for the Taoist Master Yunyou. He saw Priest Yunyou staring into a certain space, and couldn't help but look that way too.

They......are they there?

His heart beat like crazy, his throat also became extremely hoarse. It was as if his whole body was stretched taut like a bowstring, feeling immense nervousness——He had never felt this nervous in his entire life.

He had imagined a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, what it would be like when he met her. However, after months of hard work, when the moment he had been waiting for most was before his very eyes, he still couldn't help but hold his breath. Unmoving, his heart pounded so quickly that it almost jumped out of his chest.

Seeing that Priest Yunyou did not speak after a long time, Lu Huan asked nervously: "......Priest?"

Priest Yunyou turned his head to glance at him, after a heavy moment, he said: "Mister Lu, I know of the matter you seek, it is just that——"

Lu Huan's heart suddenly soared, making him hold his breath.

"It is just that you and the person you want to meet are not in the same world."

Lu Huan felt his hands and feet grow slightly cold. Unable to fully comprehend, he asked in a raspy voice with great difficulty: "Not in the same world......What does this mean?"

Priest Yunyou just shook his head, there was pity in his gaze that was difficult to understand, and said to him: "Above and below is space all around us, between the past and present is time. One flower, one leaf, one universe. In a place that you and I do not know, there are thousands upon thousands of universes. Even if a person amongst the flowers could see the person amongst the leaves, flowers and leaves do not wither and fade in the same cycle, so how could they be together?"

Su Xi outside the screen looked in astonishment at this elder Yunyou whose age was already over hundreds of years.

Even though Lu Huan's face was deathly pale, he was still unwilling to give up. Opening his mouth, he seemed like he wanted to say something.

However Priest Yunyou spoke once again: "The things you are thinking of are not common spirits, this priest is unable to do it, and there is no one under the heavens who can. Give up, Mister Lu, what you want is unobtainable."

After he was done speaking, he shook his head and directly turned to leave, not even drinking the tea the cub had poured for him.

Su Xi forgot to breathe. Looking at the cub on the screen, the cub was just standing there, ashen-faced.
