Not everyone is the epitome of their sect like you are.

I just hope Jingyi loves him as just a friend and brother.

...keep watch. You have a sense of entanglements.

Maybe he was just lonely without his best friend around. I’ll let you know if it looks like anything more.

Still want to do archery when I get home? We can invite Jingyi to join us, too.

Assumed Wei Ying wished no company.

Maybe it would be best for it to be just the two of us…

I’m not terrible with the bow in this body, but I’m not that great, either. Jingyi would probably laugh at me.

In truth, grateful to enjoy Wei Ying's first performances alone.

A gift.

Consider it a date! It’ll be just the two of us.

Should we use the Lan target range or try out the one being set up at the new house?

Perhaps the mountains? Where are lone.

Sure! I’ll let you lead the way.

Want to do a picnic dinner? We can have the kitchens prepare our celebration meal tomorrow.

My husband is so obedient. He must want something.

I want Lan Zhan. Does that count?

Cunning, most cunning.

You love me for it.

I’ll use a longbow this time. Maybe I’ll get one fitted and adjusted for this body while I’m out. Unless you think I’d have better luck in Cloud Recesses?

A longbow, on this body.

Will it bear? I do not ask to offend.

Only one way to find out!

I’ve got some arm strength now that I’ve been training with the sword again. It might not be pretty tonight, but I have to give this body more patience than I did with the old one.

It is good that Wei Ying has warmed to it. Mo Xuanyu made honest gift.

He was manipulated into giving it. The least I can do is be grateful for it.

It helps that my husband finds it satisfactory.

Would have yet loved Wei Ying as a worm.

I’m glad I wasn’t resurrected as Worm Ying!

I’ll never get my old body back and I think I finally accept that. Hell, this face is so familiar to me now that it doesn’t make me feel weird being in front of a mirror anymore. It’s the face I think of when I think of my own face now.

If you were a woman, you would have born me sons. An elder man, you would have given me pleasures of wisdom and hard bedding.

A young, handsome man pleases best. But all shapes would have suited.

I think I would have worked on building a new body if I were resurrected in either of those. I wouldn’t want to live forever as a woman or an elder.

Is that too much vanity?

No. Wei Ying knows the needs of his nature.

Is it bad that I’m, in some ways, grateful to the Oriole for choosing a good body? Mo Xuanyu deserved better and I’m proof that he could have had better.

In truth, I would not have cast glance upon him, without your soul within.

His temperament did not attract.

Wei Ying has also built this body's fortune.

That’s true. The only thing I know about him is that he was desperate enough to destroy his own soul for revenge. And from the general reactions I got from his family and the Jin cultivators, he was fairly eccentric.

I guess I’ve been thinking about it and even though he doesn’t exist in any meaningful way anymore… maybe I should try to thank him in some way. I know it won’t make a difference to him. Maybe it’s just to make myself feel better.
