The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

The morning light was dim, and the sky and earth were still filled with the unique coolness of the early morning. The soft warm sunlight was like a delicate silk thread, passing through the intricate gaps between the leaves and falling right on the woman's pale face.

Jiang Lai'er sat quietly in front of a small mound of earth. Crystal dewdrops hung on the surrounding grass, sparkling with a cool light in the dim light.

She faced a wooden sign without any surname on it. The sign was slightly mottled due to the erosion of time, but it carried endless memories and emotions.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Lai'er's eyelids suddenly trembled slightly.

Jiang Lai'er slowly opened her confused and slightly dazed eyes, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.

But after waking up, she only felt tired, as if every inch of her skin and every bone had been drained of strength.

Jiang Lai'er tried to move a little to relieve the stiffness of her body.

But his eyes never left the wooden sign.

Thinking of the past, Jiang Laier felt mixed emotions. The breeze blew gently, ruffling her hair and stirring the most fragile string in her heart.

That farewell has become forever.

"Tang'er, will you blame your sister..."

Jiang Laier stretched out her slender hand and gently stroked the wooden sign, as if she was stroking the face of her sister in her memory.

There was a look of reminiscence and doting in her eyes, but it was also mixed with an indescribable sadness.

"I'm sorry I can't go down to take care of you yet. I still have some unfinished business, but don't worry, we'll be able to meet again soon..."

After saying that, a long time passed before Jiang Laier sighed softly. Her voice was as light as a spider silk drifting in the wind. In this quiet morning, the deep longing and sadness in her voice quickly drifted away with the wind.

She began to pick up the pastries neatly arranged on the floor.

These were Jiang Tanger's favorite foods when she was alive, but Jiang Laier's silly sister always shared the things she thought were the best with others.

Even if that person never knows how to be grateful.

"Are you hungry."

Jiang Tang'er suddenly spoke, without even looking up, "If it were you, Tang'er would be happy to share this with you."

"Haah~"

The man in green shirt lying on the treetop yawned, then rubbed his sleepy eyes and replied, "It's already morning. I had a good sleep~"

Ye Yongzhen stretched with an exaggerated expression, then jumped down from the tree in a dashing manner.

Then, a small stone was thrown by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Jiang Laier, which happened to hit the outside of Ye Yongzhen's thigh, causing him to lose his balance and fall heavily on the sand.

It's so embarrassing!

"What kind of wind are you blowing so early in the morning..."

Ye Yongzhen held his chin and grinned.

"It was just a small punishment for the peeper."

Jiang Lai'er stood up with the basket in hand, smiling and saying in a friendly tone, "You rascal, sooner or later I will dig out your eyes and teach you a lesson."

"Don't say such horrible words with a friendly face..."

Ye Yongzhen felt ashamed.

Then he used both hands, one hand grabbing his head and the other hand holding his chin, and twisted it gently until a crisp "crack" sound came from the gap between the bones, and the slightly crooked chin straightened out again.

"gone back?"

"gone back."

After a simple question and answer, Jiang Laier walked lightly past Ye Yongzhen.

"What do you need to do to forgive me?"

Ye Yongzhen suddenly asked.

Jiang Lai'er paused, turned around and met Ye Yongzhen's smiling eyes, and smiled back: "Give me your eyeballs, and I will forgive you."

"That hurts so much."

Ye Yongzhen shook his head, "Change it!"

"Go down and keep Tang'er company."

"I'm too embarrassed to see her."

Ye Yongzhen shook his head again, "Is there anything simpler?"

"some."

Jiang Lai'er tilted her head playfully like a young girl and smiled, "Cut off Song Zhitao's head for me. That shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

“This is even harder…”

Ye Yongzhen swallowed his saliva and thought to himself that this woman was really vicious.

I wonder if the eye-picking one still counts...

"Really? Then there's no room for negotiation."

Jiang Lai'er turned around and walked forward. This time Ye Yongzhen didn't speak, and she didn't stop either.

"Alas, what a sin..."

Ye Yongzhen turned his head to look at the wooden sign swaying gently in the wind. It was as if a girl with bright eyes and white teeth was grinning at him. He immediately said angrily, "Laugh, laugh, laugh! I'll catch two mice, kill them, and burn them for you!"

The wind gradually died down, and the wooden sign stopped shaking as Ye Yongzhen tapped it gently.

Only then did Ye Yongzhen leave contentedly.

But not long after he left.

A tender sprout quietly emerged from the mound of earth, swaying continuously in the breeze blowing from the seaside...

Return to the restaurant where we rested.

Seeing Gu Junming standing at the door staring at the street in a daze, Ye Yongzhen walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "I heard that there were monsters that injured people recently. What was the result?"

On the way back, Ye Yongzhen heard many people talking about this matter.

For this purpose, the sea tribe held a special meeting the next day.

But Ye Yongzhen was out that day and did not know the final result of the meeting.

"You're back just in time, so I don't have to go out looking for you."

Gu Junming glanced around intentionally or unintentionally and said, "Let's talk somewhere else."

Ye Yongzhen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Based on his understanding of Gu Junming, this guy must have a trick up his sleeve.

"Ah! Senior Brother! You're back!"

When Yan Xixi saw Ye Yongzhen, her eyes immediately lit up and she came up to him happily.

"Get out of the way, I have something important to do."

Ye Yongzhen disdainfully pushed Yan Xixi away from her embrace on his thighs, "Aren't you planning on cultivating recently? Why do you still have the leisure to wander around here?"

"Go, go, the early bird catches the worm."

"I'm not stupid!"

Yan Xixi hugged Ye Yongzhen's thigh tightly. She looked up at Gu Junming, her eyes flashing with anticipation: "Senior Brother Gu, where are you going?"

"Can I come along?"

Knowing that Ye Yongzhen would not take her with her, Yan Xixi simply changed her target and started with Gu Junming.

"You don't understand what people say or what?"

Ye Yongzhen was a little impatient, "I told you we are here to do serious business, it's very dangerous!"

"You are just a little girl, not even enough to fill the teeth of a monster!"

"Then you won't protect your lovely little junior sister!"

Yan Xixi bared her little fangs and howled.

"I am like a clay Buddha crossing a river, I can't even save myself."

Ye Yongzhen grabbed Yan Xixi by the back of her collar, lifted her up, and placed her in front of him, flapping her limbs like a turtle. He sternly scolded her, "Be obedient, or I'll make you fly up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"

"Brother Gu, look! My brother is threatening me again!"
