Fox Demon Crossing

Jin Renfeng saw this scene and seemed to be in deep thought for a moment.

"Fortunately we are not late." Xiao Mumie smiled happily.

"Everyone knows that Jin Renfeng is known as the Fire Sword Immortal because of his two unique skills - one is the ultimate skill of controlling flames, and the other is his outstanding swordsmanship. Both fire skills and swordsmanship have reached the pinnacle in his hands. Back then, he fought alone with many monster kings outside Beishan City for three days and three nights, and finally killed several monster kings, scaring the rest of the monsters to retreat. As a result, he became famous and the crisis of Beishan City was completely resolved. Afterwards, he was praised by many old predecessors of the Taoist Alliance as the strongest of the younger generation and the new generation of heroes of the human race..."

"Too good!"

The suspected Xiao Mumie exclaimed and made a resolution: "I want to be a hero like that when I grow up!"

"Mu Mie, go home and have dinner."

Not far away, a woman was walking slowly towards them.

Xiao Mumie responded: "Mom, I want to watch for a while longer."

Yang Yan shook her head helplessly. She suddenly realized that the three people standing next to Mu Mie were particularly conspicuous among the crowd.

They stand out from the crowd.

Yang Yan slightly opened the third eye on her forehead and walked quietly to Mu Mie. Through the third eye, she found that the man and woman were cultivators, and the little girl with a bun on her head had a demonic power that should not be underestimated.

"Sister Yang Yan, long time no see." Jin Renfeng took the initiative to greet her.

"You are..." The more Yang Yan looked at Jin Renfeng, the more familiar she felt. The wedding she didn't want to recall and the figure of the young man who had stood up to defend her family emerged in her mind.

"Brother Jin!?"

"It's me." Jin Renfeng nodded. "I received a letter from Brother Yi Tan a few days ago, and learned that Sister Yang Yan intended to let her son worship me as her master, so I came here specially to see you."

"Then, she is the daughter of Alliance Leader Dongfang?" Yang Yan looked at Dongfang Huaizhu and vaguely remembered that she had seen her on the day of her wedding.

Dongfang Huaizhu replied calmly, "Hello, Sister Yang Yan."

"Mom, who are they?"

Xiao Mumie asked curiously.

Yang Yan touched his head and replied, "The storyteller who just told the story mentioned the deeds of Brother Jin."

"Golden Hero?!"

Xiao Mumie was full of surprise: "Mom, you actually know the great hero Jin?!"

At this moment, Xiao Mumie's eyes were shining with excitement.

"Senior, did you feel scared when you fought against so many monsters back then?"

"Senior, what made you not back down when facing so many monsters? Is it a sense of responsibility?"

"senior……"

Yang Yan interrupted him helplessly: "Okay, okay, there are too many people, let's go home and talk."

"Brother Jin, there is also this..."

"Sister Yang, you can just call me Huaizhu."

"OK……"

Suzaku followed slowly behind them.

Yang Yan glanced at her but didn't ask anything.

As they walked along the road, Xiao Mumie kept asking questions.

When I returned home, Yang Yan's house had an independent courtyard and the environment looked pretty good.

Jin Renfeng asked, "Sister Yang Yan, where is Brother Mu?"

"He is working in the fields." Yang Yan said, turning to Xiao Mumie and said, "Mie'er, go to the fields and call your father back. Tell him there are guests at home."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Xiao Mumie ran out the door immediately.

"Sister Yang Yan, is your life so difficult now?" Jin Renfeng was extremely surprised that Mu Mie's father had fallen to the point where he had to do farm work in the fields.

Yang Yan explained with a smile: "He, due to the order of the former leader Wang Quan, is not allowed to leave Mujia Village for life, so naturally he can't join the Dao League's ore mining team. I don't want to rely on that person all the time. Although life is indeed a bit harder now, we all feel very happy."

"that person?"

Jin Renfeng was stunned. That person might be referring to the old master Yang.

Not long after, a dark-skinned big man wearing coarse cloth, carrying a hoe on his shoulder and with his trouser legs rolled up, hurried back following Xiao Mumie.

Jin Renfeng's eyes widened.

If the other person hadn't been able to open his squinting eyes, he would have thought that the person in front of him was not Mu Mie's father. The man in front of him was completely different from the Mu Mie father he remembered a few years ago: not only was he tanned, but he also seemed to have become stronger.

He used to be like a weak scholar, but now he looks more like a strong and powerful butcher.

This change is really surprising...

Not only Jin Renfeng, but even Dongfang Huaizhu found it difficult to accept.

"Brother Jin, I didn't expect you to actually come."

Mu Mie's father was very enthusiastic. After exchanging pleasantries, his eyes moved between Dongfang Huaizhu and Jin Renfeng, and finally landed on the taciturn Zhuque. He said in surprise: "Little brother Jin, sister-in-law Huaizhu, your children have grown so big!"

"puff--"

The tea in Yang Yan's mouth sprayed out instantly.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Husband, don't talk nonsense." Yang Yan corrected: "Huaizhu is still young, how could they have a child this big."

Dongfang Huaizhu lowered his head shyly. In contrast, Zhuque stared at him closely with anger burning in his eyes.

"Oh, sorry, I was confused."

Mu Mie's father apologized repeatedly and then said to Yang Yan, "My wife, it's rare for little brother Jin to come here. Let's go to the third uncle's house to buy some food. I want to have a good drink with little brother Jin today."

Jin Renfeng smiled and said, "That's great. I still have some osmanthus wine here. We can drink as much as we want."

Three hours later, the table was filled with aroma.

There are seven dishes in total, including both meat and vegetables, all cooked by Yang Yan and Dongfang Huaizhu.

They took out several jars of osmanthus wine and started drinking.

At this time, Suzaku had disappeared.

Jin Renfeng asked her to walk around the area while she went to the forest to find some game. After all, with Suzaku's appetite, the food here was far from enough for a demon like her. She could not compare the appetite of humans with that of demons.

She also didn't want to see Mu Mie leaving home for a long journey at such a young age.

As night fell, they stayed at Xiaomiumie's house for the night.

They didn't say anything to each other the whole night until dawn the next day.

Jin Renfeng brought Mu Mie to the riverside, found a big rock to sit on, and started the first lesson, "Apprentice, can you read?"

Xiao Mumie nodded and replied, "Master, my mother taught me how to read and punctuate before."

"Very good, this is for you." Jin Renfeng took out a piece of paper from his bosom. On the paper was some content he had copied last night. "Today, you have to memorize it. I will test you at this time tomorrow morning. Only if you pass the test, I will teach you the real skills."

"If there's a word you don't know, just ask me."

Xiao Mumie took the paper, lowered his head and read it carefully, reciting the words on it word by word in a low voice.

The content on the paper was nothing but the sect rules written by Jin Renfeng - various regulations such as not to bully the teacher or ancestors, not to harm the world, etc.

These things seem to have no great use, but they are actually used to restrain disciples and clearly stipulate what they can and cannot do, so as to avoid trouble in the future.

Time passed quietly while Jin Renfeng was in a daze.

"Gulu~"

There was a slight sound, and it turned out that Xiao Mumie's stomach was growling with hunger. Jin Renfeng looked up at the sky, and estimated that it was almost time, so he said, "Go back and eat, you have a day to prepare."

After Xiao Mumie left, Jin Renfeng said to the air: "Old Patriarch Yang, you can come out now. Your hiding skills are full of flaws in my eyes."

However, there was no movement around.

"Aren't you still giving up?"

Not far away, behind a big tree, Yang Yifang did not move. Suddenly, under the gaze of his Heavenly Eye, the figure of Jin Renfeng disappeared - not instantly, but his body gradually became transparent little by little until it was completely invisible.

Yang Yifang's face suddenly changed. What kind of method is this?

Illusion?

This doesn't seem right. If it was an illusion, his divine eyes should be able to see through its falsehood.

"Master Yang, you are following us so stealthily, are you trying to steal my skills?" Jin Renfeng's voice came from not far behind Yang Yifang, "You should know that stealing skills is an immoral act. People say that Master Yang has lived a spotless life, is that false?"

Yang Yifang immediately looked in the direction of the sound and tried his best to activate his Heavenly Eye, but he still could not capture the figure of the Golden Man-Phoenix. This was simply unbelievable.

In the end, he had to reveal himself on his own initiative, otherwise he would not be able to find the Golden Phoenix even if he was given a hundred years.

Jin Renfeng obviously has a deeper understanding of the use of invisibility, and his performance is naturally more proficient.

Yang Yifang was silent for a moment, then asked, "Boy, how did you find me?"

He was puzzled. He had clearly used a unique skill to successfully conceal his breath, and in order to avoid exposing his whereabouts, he deliberately kept a certain distance. It should be impossible for him to be discovered by being so cautious.

Jin Renfeng naturally would not tell him that within the perception range of his Yang Shen, any movement within a diameter of nine feet could be detected.

If the Yang Soul leaves the body, he can see clearly every movement within a radius of ten miles.

"Master Yang, I just arrived yesterday afternoon, and you came this morning. There is quite a distance from Yangjia to Mujia Village. Did you arrange an insider in Mujia Village?" Jin Renfeng avoided talking about how he discovered Yang Yifang and asked another question instead.

Yang Yi said solemnly: "Mu Mie cannot be your disciple. He has the divine eye, and the Yang family is the most suitable destination for him."

"That's what I told your daughter as well." Jin Renfeng spread his hands to show his helplessness, "But your daughter doesn't seem to agree to let Mu Mie join the Yang family. Besides, the best choice doesn't necessarily mean the right choice. Since Mu Mie has become my disciple, he must be my apprentice. Old Patriarch Yang, you have a clean life, you shouldn't do something like stealing someone's love, right? That would make people criticize you."

"Innocent for a lifetime, innocent for a lifetime..." Yang Yifang secretly clenched his fists, feeling that Jin Renfeng was mocking him when she mentioned these words. His innocence in this lifetime might only be superficial in the eyes of others.

Siluke

Yang Yifang asked, "Are you going to take him away?"

"No, he's still too young. Wouldn't it be better for him to stay with his parents and have a complete childhood?"

Then, the two fell into a brief silence.

Jin Renfeng continued, "It seems that Patriarch Yang still cares about your daughter."

Yang Yifang did not respond. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Mujia Village, staring for a long time. After he came to his senses, he glanced at Jin Renfeng and left without saying anything.

Looking at Yang Yifang's receding back, Jin Renfeng muttered to himself, "It's not easy to be a clean person. Although everyone says you are clean, is this really a real life?"

"Compared to a pure life, I prefer to pursue a life without regrets..."

Yang Yifang came and went in a hurry. From beginning to end, he never visited his daughter Yang Yan.

Is it because you don’t want to?

No, to be more precise, he didn't dare.

After all, at that wedding, Yang Yifang acted more like a family head than a father.

There is no doubt that Yang Yifang is an excellent head of the family, but he is not a competent father.

Jin Renfeng did not stay there either, but turned around and left in the opposite direction.
