My journey to Konoha

As the meal was in full swing, the deacon's low hum was heard in the sky.

"The magic weapon for repair is complete, and the repair and photography game will start again!"

"Huh? Recovered so quickly?" Mikoto stood up in surprise.

"Haha, you can eat slowly, no need to worry." The deacon responded quickly, "Then how about taking a photo right away?"

......

The sky was as red as blood under the setting sun, and everyone stood outside the archway of the sect's building.

"It's really delicious..." Lei Zi sighed, "It would be a wonderful thing to become the spokesperson for cultivation here."

“That’s all thanks to Fellow Daoist Chu Yue’s cooking skills!” Chu Chun exclaimed.

"Seeing you all so happy really makes me happy." Seeing everyone's smiling faces, Wan Xin raised the corners of his lips slightly.

"It is indeed a delicacy." Guangzi, who was dressed in Confucian clothes, opened his folding fan again and whispered, "You can actually eat like this." Heizi did not forget to tease Guangzi.

Suddenly, the spiritual python in Photon's bag poked its head out, and Chuchun accidentally touched the snake's head.

"Huh? Where are fellow practitioner Chu Yue and Fairy Misaka?" Meiwei said as soon as he finished speaking.

"Huh?" At this moment, everyone realized that Chu Yue and Mikoto had disappeared.

"It's fine for both of you." Shen Wu said calmly.

"How ridiculous! The two of them cannot disappear at the same time!" Heizi immediately questioned Shenwu.

"No worries means no need to worry." Shen Wu responded calmly, "I'm leaving now." After that, he started walking towards the homeward path.

Wannei and Paofu couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

"No problem, no problem." Lei Zi hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "You don't know that gods have no temperament. Her words and actions are just her true nature!"

"That was a kind of indifferent and mysterious temperament." Heizi sighed slightly, "Although it is hard to bear the loss of my elder sister and the wild ape, but since Shenwu said that everything is safe, I have no choice but to return to the mountain hut first..."

Seeing that Heizi didn't care and just looked helpless, Wannei and Paofu felt a little relieved.

"But where did Chu Yue and Elder Misaka go?" Hatsuharu asked puzzledly.

In the Light and Shadow Pavilion where one practices.

Surrounded by a pure white void, what appeared was the real realm of refinement.

Mikoto looks innocent and charming in her dreamy layered swimsuit.

"This..." Mikoto randomly clicked a button with the magic spell remote in her hand. However, the surrounding scene did not change.

"It shouldn't be like this..." Mikoto said softly, "Then... this?" She pressed another button, and the scene instantly switched to the sea.

Unconsciously, when she pressed the first button, the screen on the roof of the company building showed this place of refining shadows.

"Ha, found it!" Mikoto said happily.

Running happily towards the beach, her singing voice dancing in the wind, Mikoto leaping lightly.

"Hey, Mikoto." Chu Yue, wearing cloth shoes, walked slowly towards them with a smile.

"Huh? Chu Yue!?" Mikoto blurted out in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"I just want to see how you look in a swimsuit, Mikoto." Chu Yue smiled.

"Ah, uh..." Mikoto lowered her head and her cheeks flushed, "How is it? Does it look good?"

"Very beautiful!" Chu Yue smiled like a flower, "very moving."

"Really?" Mikoto immediately raised her head in delight.

"Of course." Chu Yue said.

"Eh?" Mikoto noticed Chu Yue's simple cloth shoes, "Your outfit..."

"Oh, Miqin, are you also a Taoist partner?" Chu Yue smiled and teased, "I am a male cultivator..."

"No..." Misaka stared at Chu Yue and said softly, "But, this is also quite heroic..."

She thought Chu Yue hadn't heard the end, but she didn't know she had. Chu Yue smiled and responded, "Misaki, come play with us! This is our exclusive sea area!"

Across from the sect building, Touma passed by and caught a glimpse of a figure on the giant screen.

"Chu Yue?" Touma muttered to himself, "And... a Taoist partner?"

In the picture, the two are smiling, playing in the water and chasing each other. Chu Yue hugs Miqin and kisses her forehead gently.

"Uh..." Touma thought to himself, "Chu Yue, what on earth do you want to do... Even if we are Taoist couples, there is no need to be so arrogant..."

......

Inside a building without doors and windows in the college town.

"Hey, Aleister." Chu Yue smiled and looked at the man soaked in the medicine.

"Master Chu Yue." Aleister responded, "You actually came to visit in person."

"I need your help with some things." Chu Yue said.

"Trouble you?" Aleister said with a smile. "Since you asked for help, it must be related to the important affairs of the parliament."

"You're too kind." Chu Yue smiled slightly, "It's just that I just wanted to teach you on a whim."

"Teaching?" Aleister asked. "For that 'special lecture'?"

"Haha, do you think the 'Master of Illusion' really exists?" Chu Yue smiled even more deeply.

"Since Taoist Chu Yue mentioned it," Aleister said, "Does that mean that this technique has become a reality?"

"Haha," Chu Yue laughed again, "What if I tell you that my skills also include the 'Illusionary Master Hand'?"

......

A dessert shop that Chu Yue and Miqin often go to.

"Tell me, onee-sama." Kuroko sat across from Mikoto and asked, "Where did you go with that 'wild man' last time?"

"You've repeated this question so many times..." Mikoto complained, "Besides, Chu Yue is not a 'savage'..."

"But you weren't fooled by that 'savage', were you?" Heizi stood up angrily, "I'm already here, and you actually..."

Mikoto lowered her head to read a book and did not respond to Kuroko. She just sighed helplessly.

"Sister?" Heizi asked tentatively.

"Hmm?" Mikoto came back to her senses.

"Well, don't wait any longer, how about watching a movie?"

"Hatsuharu isn't going to wait?" Mikoto was surprised. "Besides, to watch a movie..."

"Look!" Kuroko spread the book towards Mikoto, "'The Temptation of Love and Youth'." On the title page, a scene of a man kissing a woman came into view.

"Hmm..." Mikoto was stunned. The man and woman in the scroll gradually changed to Chu Yue and herself... Why do I keep thinking about him recently! Mikoto shook her head and continued to flip through the book. She instantly found the part that caught her eye. "Oh! This! There seems to be a summer festival on the top floor of the 'Colorful Mist Pavilion'!"

"It's just something a child plays with." Heizi turned his head away.

"Hmm..." Mikoto thought of Chu Yue again. Chu Yue seemed to smile and say, "Well, since you like it, Mikoto..."

"Excuse me." Hatsuharu's voice sounded from the side, and the two looked towards the source.

Hatsuharu stood side by side with Kanna and said, "I missed the bus and kept everyone waiting for a long time."

"Hmm? Where are Chu Yue and Fellow Daoist Zuo Tian?" Mikoto asked when she saw that they were absent.

"Oh, well..." Uiharu explained, "She was called back for refresher courses, so..."
