# Chapter 1261: Finally Meeting
Cai Zhi exited the Star Dust Hall, still somewhat shaken. But she hadn't forgotten Mo Li's words. Her spiritual sense swept out, locked onto Xing Ling's aura, and she flew straight toward him, her heart full of confusion...
Strange, her elder sister had actually taken the initiative to bring someone to her Star God Hall. That had never happened before. Just who was this so-called "Seal God First"?
In just a few breaths, she arrived at Xing Ling's location. Her rainbow-colored figure drifted down, and when she saw the person beside Xing Ling, her beautiful eyes widened and her lips parted: "Sis... mm!"
Fortunately, she quickly reacted, her small hands flashing like lightning to cover her lips.
Back then, she had been severely scolded by Mo Li and ordered to return to her Star God Hall for confinement, so she obediently went back and hadn't taken a single step out. So she knew nothing of what happened afterward.
At that time, the God-Sealing Battle had not yet begun, and Yun Che's profound strength was the lowest of the low. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't have imagined that the "Seal God First" Mo Li spoke of would be Yun Che.
Seeing Cai Zhi, Yun Che was even more shocked, almost thinking his eyes were playing tricks on him: "Little Mo Li!? You... why are you here?"
As soon as he spoke, the Xing Ling beside him hurriedly bowed: "Tiansha Star God Xing Ling, pays respects to the Little Princess."
"...!" Yun Che was stunned, and then his jaw nearly hit the ground.
L-Little Princess!?
Although Yun Che was quite ignorant about the God Realm, because of Mo Li, he at least knew a little about the Star God Realm. The Star God Realm had only two princesses, both of whom were Star Gods. Mo Li was the Eldest Princess, and the Little Princess's title was "Cai Zhi," the new Celestial Wolf Star God!
This willful, capricious, strange-minded girl who had caused trouble time and again and was a little mentally unstable... was the Little Princess of the Star God Realm... Celestial Wolf Star God Cai Zhi!?
Yun Che's eyes bulged, his mind spinning. Meanwhile, Cai Zhi's eyes were wide open as she pointed at Yun Che: "He... is that 'Seal God First' person?"
Xing Ling replied: "Reporting to Little Princess, this Yun Che young master is indeed the Seal God First of this session's Profound God Convention, and the Divine Emperor personally brought him back."
The two stared at each other for several breaths. Cai Zhi suddenly shot forward and grabbed Yun Che: "Come with me to the Star God Hall first!"
"Little Princess!" Xing Ling quickly said: "The Divine Emperor has ordered me to accompany Young Master Yun Che and wait here."
Cai Zhi glanced at him sideways and said: "Taking him away is my elder sister's order. Are you going to disobey?"
Xing Ling's whole body trembled, and he immediately kneeled: "N-no... I dare not."
"Hmph!" Cai Zhi snorted lightly, pulled Yun Che: "Let's go!"
Xing Ling's reaction truly surprised Yun Che: Her fear of Mo Li seemed even greater than that of Star God Emperor? Was Mo Li really that terrifying? She didn't seem so...
"Little Mo Li, you..."
"Don't talk!"
Yun Che had just opened his mouth to ask questions when Cai Zhi immediately stopped him. She moved extremely fast, and before long, she had brought Yun Che into the Star God Hall... even Mo Li's Tiansha Star God Hall.
Cai Zhi led Yun Che directly through the main hall, and what unfolded before Yun Che's eyes was an unbelievable independent world.
The sky was azure, oddly dotted with countless stars. In a single glance, he could see countless mountains, rivers, plants, and palaces... Some palaces were even floating atop clouds, like celestial immortal palaces.
In the distance, faint roars of various profound beasts could be heard. Looking up, he could see spiritual beasts he had never seen before flying across the sky.
Every Star God Hall was a world of its own. This world wasn't too vast, but it spanned several thousand miles.
Yun Che was stunned for a moment, then quickly collected his thoughts. He looked at the girl beside him, her colorful clothes fluttering, her eyes lively yet tinged with cunning. His mind still couldn't quite wrap around it.
"You... you... are really the... Cai Zhi Princess of the Star God Realm?" Not a long sentence, but Yun Che stammered through it.
Because no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't connect the name "Little Mo Li" with "Celestial Wolf Star God."
"Hmph!" Cai Zhi raised her nose: "You really are a big idiot."
Yun Che: "!@#..."
"Little Mo Li" was Cai Zhi... was the Celestial Wolf Star God... was Mo Li's younger sister...
Compared to two years ago, Cai Zhi was almost completely unchanged. Yun Che stared at her, dumbfounded for a long time...
...
"Alright, I've decided! My name shall be... Little Mo Li!"
...
"So that's how it is. Mm... Mo Li is big brother's wife, so Little Mo Li is big brother's... sister-in-law! If that's the case, then big brother is my brother-in-law... Ah! Hello, brother-in-law!"
...
"Brother-in-law, look, Mo Li elder sister is your wife, and I am Little Mo Li, so of course I am Mo Li elder sister's little sister. Since I am Mo Li elder sister's little sister, of course I am your sister-in-law, and you are my brother-in-law. Perfectly correct."
...
"She is Mo Li, I am Little Mo Li. We're both girls, so Mo Li is of course Little Mo Li's elder sister, and Little Mo Li is of course Mo Li's little sister! Such an obvious thing, and you still want to deny it!"
...
Now recalling her neurotic words and logic from back then, it was all deliberate because of this reason.
When she first said her name was "Mo Li," it was to test his reaction. She insisted that "Little Mo Li" was "Mo Li's" younger sister because she was indeed Mo Li's younger sister... Even her way of cursing was almost identical to Mo Li's.
Wait a minute!
Why did she want to test him? And all her subsequent strange behavior... Before that, he had never had any contact with her at all!
"You... know about me and your elder sister?" Yun Che asked, and as soon as it came out, he felt it was a stupid question.
"Of course elder sister told me." Cai Zhi said matter-of-factly: "Elder sister and I are the closest of close sisters. Of course I know everything about her. But, only I know."
If it weren't for someone so close, given Mo Li's personality, how could she ever talk to anyone about matters concerning him. He sighed inwardly, then asked: "At that time, how did you know that I... was the one your elder sister talked about?"
"Of course you told me yourself!"
"I... told you?" Yun Che was puzzled.
"That's right." Cai Zhi said with a smile: "If brother-in-law hadn't used the first sword of the Celestial Wolf Prison God Scripture to chase away the bad guys, I might have been bullied by them. Hehehe, brother-in-law is really amazing."
Yun Che froze, then slapped his hand over his face.
Only now did he suddenly remember that when he "saved" Little Mo Li, the sword move he used was a flame-enhanced Celestial Wolf Strike...
He actually used the Celestial Wolf's first sword... to save the Celestial Wolf Star God...
Just thinking about it was embarrassing...
Although it had flame enhancement, how could the Celestial Wolf Star God fail to recognize the first sword of the "Celestial Wolf Prison God Scripture"? Because the Celestial Wolf Prison God Scripture was the exclusive sword technique of the Celestial Wolf Star God!
And his Celestial Wolf Strike was taught by Mo Li, making him the only person besides the Celestial Wolf Star God who could perform this sword move... Recalling how "Little Mo Li" showed no fear at the time, but had a very strange expression, it was clearly through that sword move that she directly suspected he was the person her "elder sister" spoke of.
And then her series of "innocent" words and actions that made people let down their guard, and her suddenly calling herself "Mo Li," were all to confirm his identity.
Yun Che was shocked, amused, and deeply moved... Fate was truly a wonderful thing. He had fled from the Flame God Realm to the Heiya Realm, and accidentally rescued this girl, who turned out to be Mo Li's younger sister...
It was almost absurdly wonderful.
No wonder she was swaggering around the Black Soul Sect's territory. No wonder she showed up wherever he went. No wonder she kept creating crises and troubles for him...
So the life-threatening danger he thought he was in back then was actually nothing at all! He had fought so desperately, even using Moon-Wan-Star-Return to resolve the crisis!
What was even more outrageous was... that night after escaping from Lei Qianfeng, he was severely injured and barely conscious, and in his weakened state, he had even said many heartfelt things to Little Mo Li...
Soul Sect and Lei Qianfeng...
Yun Che suddenly turned his gaze and asked: "All the Soul Sect people were crippled in one night. You did that?"
"Right!" Cai Zhi said with dissatisfaction: "So that a certain big idiot wouldn't always go and get himself killed for no reason, even though he's so weak."
"...!" Yun Che's mouth twitched: "Then Lei Qianfeng, you killed him too?"
"Hmph, no way!" Cai Zhi snorted lightly: "Elder sister said, you can't just kill people randomly. The one who killed him was that little turtle from the Shenwu Realm! It must be because after I exposed that little turtle and that woman Xiao Qingtong, they became furious and... mm!!"
Suddenly realizing she had revealed something, Cai Zhi quickly covered her lips, her dark eyes filled with innocence.
Yun Che immediately reacted and blurted out: "So those two Shadow Stones were your doing! And also... that Nine-Star Buddha God Jade and Void Stone, you deliberately left them behind?"
Back then, he had been deeply puzzled. With Lei Qianfeng's abilities, how could he possibly possess a Nine-Star Buddha God Jade and a Void Stone of that level? And how could he have the ability and the audacity to record those two images that struck at the heart of Wu Guike?
So it was all Cai Zhi's doing!
With the abilities of the Celestial Wolf Star God, even if Wu Guike had ten Divine Sovereigns by his side, they would absolutely not detect her presence.
Cai Zhi's starry eyes darted around, and she had to admit: "Right! But they weren't my things. The Nine-Star Buddha God Jade and Void Stone all belonged to the little turtle. But but, I didn't steal them from the little turtle. I exchanged them openly for the two Shadow Stones. Fair trade, all voluntary, no cheating children, and you can't say I bullied anyone!"
Yun Che's mouth gaped open, unable to close for a long time.
"Oh, right! I even reserved two Shadow Stones to give you to play with. Hehehehe, isn't it fun?" Cai Zhi said smugly.
Yun Che: "..."
Whether it was fun or not aside, Cai Zhi certainly never imagined that those two Shadow Stones she left behind for "fun" would give Yun Che an enormous advantage... far more than the Nine-Star Buddha God Jade and Void Stone.
Without those two Shadow Stones, Yun Che wouldn't have even passed the first round of preliminaries, let alone become the Seal God First... and none of what followed would have happened.
Only now did Yun Che realize that Wu Guike hadn't been blackmailed by those two Shadow Stones for the first time... The first time, Cai Zhi had extorted... oh no, exchanged them for a Nine-Star Buddha God Jade and a piece of Void Stone. He must have already been hemorrhaging, and then he encountered Yun Che at the Profound God Convention...
It was really quite tough for him...
Amidst his mixed feelings, deep gratitude surged within Yun Che... If not for Cai Zhi, he would never have passed the profect God Convention preliminaries, never obtained the Qiankun Five Jade Pill, never entered the Zhoutian Realm, and never stood here on the land of the Star God Realm.
He had thought it was all the favor of fate. But it turned out that this girl, whom he had thought was all kinds of strange and only caused trouble willfully, had silently paved the way for him to find Mo Li behind his back.
During that time, she called him "brother-in-law," and she said it smoothly, willingly.
"Strange, are you really the Seal God First?" Cai Zhi looked at Yun Che with a strange expression, then suddenly noticed his profound strength and let out an exaggerated shriek: "Wahhh!? Middle-stage Divine Spirit Realm? But... just a month ago you were early-stage Divine Tribulation Realm. You you you you... how did you do it?"
"...Of course I have to thank you for leaving behind that Nine-Star Buddha God Jade." Yun Che said half-truthfully.
"Hmph, I did it all for elder sister, not for you." Cai Zhi turned away, her lips pursed, and said quietly: "And I got severely scolded by elder sister for this."
"Where is your elder sister now?" Yun Che asked: "You said earlier that she told you to bring me here. Is she... is she here?"
Mentioning "Mo Li," Yun Che's tone suddenly became much more urgent. Cai Zhi glanced at him, her delicate brows furrowed with worry: "Elder sister isn't here. She just now... caused a big disaster. Maybe... maybe..."
"A big disaster?" Yun Che's brows tightened: "What disaster?"
"It's all because of you!"
Cai Zhi thought bitterly. Seeing Yun Che, she now understood why Mo Li had risked so much to kill Yu Luo. Yu Luo was dead, but the consequences... were unpredictable.
"You... stay here for now, don't wander off. I'm going to see elder sister. Maybe I'll come back with her, and then you can see her."
"And! Don't blame me if I didn't warn you. Elder sister is extremely angry about you coming to the God Realm. If she scolds you harshly later, I'm not going to speak up for you."
"Okay." Yun Che nodded, his heart surging with uncontrollable emotion.
Mo Li, finally I can see you again... Four years, everything passed like clouds and smoke, yet why did this one thing—not being able to see you—feel so long?
Cai Zhi teleported several times and arrived at the door of the Star God Hall. Just as she pushed open the hall doors, she saw Mo Li floating down and landing before her.
"Elder sister!" Seeing Mo Li unharmed and returning so quickly, Cai Zhi was both worried and relieved: "Yu Luo, she..."
"The old fiend will handle it. Don't worry about it." Mo Li's tone was extremely flat, as if she didn't care at all: "Where is Yun Che?"
"He... he's in the Star God Hall right now."
Mo Li's figure suddenly stopped there. Although she was trying hard to hide it, Cai Zhi could clearly sense her disordered breathing.
"Just to see me, he abandoned his family and clan, acted so arrogantly, willfully, recklessly, and boldly! Ha, does he think he's being so great and amazing doing this? He's just stupid to the extreme, utterly foolish!"
The anger that suddenly erupted from Mo Li startled Cai Zhi: "Elder sister, don't... be angry. He... he did it all for you..."
"Hmph! For me? Did he ever think about how I would feel? Did he ever think about whether I want to see him? Did he ever think about how hard it was for him to survive back then, yet he insists on coming here to die!" Mo Li's chest heaved, and the more she spoke, the angrier she became: "All the teachings I gave him back then, all the words I warned him with, he threw them to the wind! And he still has the nerve and the face to see me!"
"Cai Zhi, later... even if I break both his legs, you're not allowed to say a single word on his behalf, do you hear me!"
"I... I understand." Faced with Mo Li's sudden outburst of fury, Cai Zhi answered weakly.
This was the Tiansha Star God Hall, Mo Li's domain. Everything here was under her perception... including Yun Che's aura. Mo Li closed her eyes. It took a long while before she finally calmed down a little. She opened her mouth and said: "Take me to him."
With Mo Li and Cai Zhi's profound strength, a hundred miles was but an instant. But Mo Li flew very slowly, a terrifying killing aura on her face. Naturally, Cai Zhi dared not speed up and followed timidly behind. She couldn't predict what would happen when Mo Li saw Yun Che.
Passing the main hall, they entered a world shrouded in mist and clouds. Yun Che's figure stood beneath a cloud, quietly gazing at the dreamlike world before him.
At that moment, he seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around. Their gazes met, as if drawn by an invisible magnetic force.
In his sight, Mo Li was still dressed in her favorite red clothes, still had her hair of an excessively gorgeous red, still had those eyes that always released cold blade-like glares but had never made him feel the slightest bit afraid.
Four years had passed, and he had changed a lot, but his Mo Li seemed not to have changed at all. It was as if it were yesterday, and the four years of separation were just a nonexistent dream.
Yun Che stood frozen. Mo Li also stood frozen. Under the warm radiance of the countless stars, their gazes merged across the distant space. The scene froze for a long time, until the entire world fell silent, broken only by Yun Che's soft call:
"Mo... Li..."
To Yun Che, perhaps there were no two words in the world more familiar than these.
Mo Li had arrived with killing intent and anger. She had prepared countless words to rebuke him, to scold him thoroughly, to make him realize what a huge mistake he had made... Since the God-Sealing Battle, although Yun Che couldn't see her, she had been watching him from afar. She believed that when she saw him now, she could maintain enough composure, at least not lose control of her emotions.
But in this world with no outsiders, no need to guard or defend, looking at Yun Che who was so close, at his face and his violently trembling gaze, her vision quickly blurred. All her emotions and all her prepared words became utterly chaotic. Her mind was nothing but a blank.
Yun Che's call pierced into the deepest part of her soul. Two gentle, faint words struck heavily against the dream in her heart that she had thought would never be recreated.
Mo Li's body trembled, and then she suddenly plunged down, heavily throwing herself onto Yun Che.
"Yun... Che..."
The moment these words left her mouth, Mo Li was already crying uncontrollably. She tightly embraced the man before her, almost trying to meld herself into his body: "You... idiot... big idiot... wuu... waa..."
"Wuuwaaaaaa..."
Wrapped in Yun Che's aura, Mo Li's emotions finally collapsed completely. The sobbing she had held back instantly turned into loud wailing, so loud it seemed to split the earth and shatter the sky, darkening heaven and earth. She could no longer make any other sound.
Why did Yun Che abandon everything to come to the God Realm? Why did he resort to any means to enter the Zhoutian Realm? Why did he insist on exposing his secrets time and again before the world, even if it meant falling into a realm of endless calamity? Why, when pushed to the brink of death by Luo Changsheng, did he refuse to faint...
And why did he reject the Brahma Emperor, reject the Zhoutian Emperor, reject the Dragon Emperor... yet insist on following her to the Star God Realm?
She knew everything. She understood everything... more clearly than anyone else in this world.
