Evil Master and Disciple

After leaving the city gate, Ye Feng lifted the curtain of the carriage and watched the majestic city gradually moving away, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

A lot of things happened in the month since he came to Beijing, which he had never expected.

Although the time was short, the capital left a deep impression on him.

Here he met his adoptive father, worshipped six sub-saint masters, got to know Princess Changning, and Gu Tianshi, who treated him to wine and prostitution and had sex with the fairy Lingyin.

Ye Feng looked at the distant capital and sighed softly, "The capital is great. I won't come here again."

Yun Shuang'er said, "If it's so good, why don't you come?"

Ye Feng laughed and said, "Shuang'er, you don't know that the old emperor has taken a fancy to me and insists on marrying me to Princess Changning! If I come again, I will become his consort!"

Yun Shuang'er's eyes turned and she said, "Go ahead and dream on. With your character, you still want to marry a princess?"

"What I said is true. When I came out of the Saint's Building a few days ago, the Emperor came to see me privately... Alas, it's a pity that I already have a crush on someone, so I rejected him on the spot... Otherwise, I would have been the eldest princess's consort by now!"

Seeing that Ye Feng didn't seem to be joking, Yun Shuang'er frowned and asked, "Are you serious?"

Ye Feng said, "I never joke about this kind of thing! Don't worry, I probably won't come to the capital again. I'm not destined to be with that beautiful Princess Changning in this life!"

Yun Shuang'er said, "Huh, you really are thinking about her."

Seeing that Yun Shuang'er was a little angry, Ye Feng smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.

Although it is the first month of the lunar year, the weather in the north is still cold.

The cold wind was blowing outside the window.

There was thick snow on both sides of the official road.

It will take at least half a month for the snow to start melting.

However, the snow on the official road had already been cleared.

There is no other way around this. There are millions of people in the capital, and the amount of firewood transported to the capital every day is an astronomical figure. The roads must be kept clear.

The carriage went south along the official road. The lanterns hanging on the carriage swayed in the wind in the darkness, looking a little desolate.

The people in the six carriages were in different states at the moment.

Su Daji and Miss Mozhu were drinking and eating meat, and their laughter never stopped.

Ling Yunzhi had already fallen asleep on the soft couch in the carriage.

Qin Chuchu and An Nian were talking in private.

Ye Feng and Yun Shuang'er fell into silence.

In the first of the two carriages, Monk Fayuan and Chu Liunian were sitting cross-legged.

Master Xuan Ku was sitting in the second carriage.

Chu Liunian was in this team, and Monk Fayuan didn't even change Chu Liunian's clothes or appearance.

It seemed that they were not worried that the Jade Maiden Sect would kill their team halfway.

Monk Fayuan had an unusually calm expression, his eyes closed, and he gently turned a string of Buddhist beads in his hands, as if he had entered his own state.

Chu Liunian's expression was a little complicated. She would occasionally lift the window curtains and look at the outside world.

Under the moonlight, the snow on the ground looked so bright, but Chu Liunian felt that his life was very bleak.

She sighed softly and said to herself, "Perhaps this is the last time I see this world."

Monk Fayuan slowly opened his eyes and smiled, "Why do you say that, Fairy Liunian?"

Chu Liunian said, "Brother Fayuan, why do you ask questions when you already know the answer? I'm very curious. Why didn't you ask me anything during this time in the capital? Didn't Lingtai Temple and Yunhai Sect make such a big fuss in the capital just to capture me?

You didn't ask anything, and now you're escorting us back to Lingtai Temple. It's over two thousand miles. If something happens to me, wouldn't all your efforts be in vain?"

Monk Fayuan smiled and said, "I know I can't get anything out of the fairy, so why ask?"

Chu Liunian asked, "Then why did you send me to Lingtai Temple?"

Monk Fayuan asked, "If I say I'm sending you back to Lingtai Temple to protect you, can you believe me, Fairy?"

"Protect me? Who wants to kill me?"

Fa Yuan said, "Who didn't kill you?"

Chu Liunian was stunned and suddenly fell silent.

She understood what Fa Yuan meant.

The person who wanted to kill her was the one who failed to kill her last time.

Yes, based on her understanding of the Lord, since she was not dead, the Lord would most likely try to silence her again.

After a moment's silence, Chu Liunian said, "Since you want to protect me, why are you doing it so openly? If the Lord really sent someone to kill me, do you think that with the Lingtai Temple's efforts over the past few months, and Mr. Ye and the others, you could stop it?"

Fa Yuan smiled without saying anything.

Chu Liunian is not stupid. When she saw Fa Yuan's smile, her heart skipped a beat.

Said: "Are you using it as bait?"

Fa Yuan did not deny it.

This is the default.

Chu Liunian frowned and said, "I have no objection to you using me as bait. After all, I don't have the capital to negotiate with you right now. But why did you drag those people from the Yunhai Sect along with you?"

Fa Yuan said, "We are still protecting them. The Yunhai Sect and the Yunv Sect have completely torn their relationship apart. The status of these people in the Yunhai Sect is very important. Perhaps the Lord and Fairy Mengchu will take action against them."

"Oh."

Chu Liunian lifted the curtain of the window again and took a look at the white snow outside.

She knew that there must be many powerful Buddhists lurking in this darkness.

Chu Liunian said, "Did those sisters you took away from the capital say anything? That's why you haven't asked me about the Lord these past few days."

Monk Fayuan nodded slowly and said, "Someone has spoken, so we know that you, Fairy Liunian, do not know the Lord's secret."

Chu Liunian said: "Grandma Bai should know a lot of the Lord's secrets..."

"Special Envoy Bai was taken away by the Yunhai Sect's men that night."

"I understand. You, Lingtai Temple, didn't get the information from Special Envoy Bai. The Yunhai Sect also didn't share the information they got with you, so you want to use me to lure out someone who knows the Lord's secrets just like Special Envoy Bai."

Fa Yuan was silent again.

Chu Liunian said, "Since the Lord had Granny Bai attack me that night, she had already given up on me. Even if she knew I was still alive, even if she knew I was sitting in this carriage, she wouldn't save me."

"But she will kill you. The people she sends must be her direct descendants."

Chu Liunian smiled and said, "Maybe she will do it herself. Don't blame me for not reminding you, the Lord is a powerful person in the Heaven's End Realm. If the Lord does it herself, Master Xuanku will block the Lord's move."

Monk Fayuan smiled and said, "What the fairy said is indeed very likely to happen, so we have made preparations."

The smile on Chu Liunian's face froze. He took a deep breath and said, "Hiss... Is there a powerful person at the Sky-Ending Realm in your Lingtai Temple?"

"Buddhism is very vast, and there are more powerful people in the world than just Jinghui Shenni. The journey is long, and the fairy has just recovered from her injuries, so she should rest first."

After saying this, Monk Fayuan closed his eyes again and continued to turn the rosary in his hand.
