Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Ye Yu suppressed the joy that made her want to shout out loud. After all her hard work, she was finally close to reaching the sixth level of Qi Refining, at which point she would be able to use even more spells.

However, the further she progresses in her cultivation, the more difficult it will become. She will likely have to search for rare and precious materials all over the world in the future.

The joy of advancing to the next level was somewhat diminished. Ye Yu packed her things and, before the thick fog in the mountains dissipated, went down the mountain.

She returned to the guesthouse run by Zhu Deng. Because it was still early and it was raining outside, there were not many people in the lobby.

Only the chefs in the kitchen were busy. Ye Yu went up, took some food, walked to the window, sat down, and began to fill her stomach.

Zhu Deng came downstairs and saw Ye Yu sitting in the dining room eating. He walked over and said happily, "Little sister Ye Yu, you're back! The weather has been bad these past two days, with heavy rain and fog on the mountain. I was worried that you might have gone camping there alone and something might have happened to you without us knowing. Besides, the signal is bad on the mountain, so I couldn't even call you."

Ye Yu swallowed the food in her mouth: "Thank you for your concern, Brother Zhu. I went to places you've been before. Camping in the wild on a rainy day is actually more relaxing and comfortable."

"Haha, Ye Yu really knows how to enjoy life."

Zhu Deng's laughter was very loud; Zhou Xueyang could hear it even while he was still on the stairs.

"Old Zhu, what's making you so happy?"

After Zhou Xueyang went downstairs, he saw Ye Yu and Zhu Deng sitting at the dining table chatting.

He smiled and said, "Little Sister Ye Yu is back? Yesterday, Lao Zhu and I were discussing how the fog and rain on the mountain were so heavy that we were worried you might encounter some danger on your own, so we planned to go find you this morning."

Ye Yu knew the two honest men meant well and thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your concern. I'm back safe and sound, and I even made quite a few gains."

"Oh? You found wild ginseng?"

Ye Yu shook her head and chuckled: "More or less, it's something very useful to me."

"Haha, then your trip wasn't a waste."

Zhou Xueyang burst into laughter.

While the two men were present, Ye Yu told them that she was leaving today: "Brothers, I am leaving today."

Zhou Xueyang hurriedly asked, "Don't you have enemies looking for you? It's not too late to hide here for a while and leave after things have calmed down."

"I'm worried about my family, and besides, I need to take care of some things."

Knowing how formidable Ye Yu was, Zhou Xueyang could only instruct her, "Then be careful in everything. If you need any help, just let me know."

"Yes, just let me know if you need any help. We've known each other for a while, so we're friends." Zhu Deng was also very generous.

Ye Yu admired their loyalty and handed them the four talismans she had left: "These are talismans I made. Carry them with you at all times. They will save you in a critical moment. Don't think I'm a charlatan. My talismans are guaranteed to be genuine."

Zhou Xueyang took it with both hands, grinning broadly: "I've seen your skills with my own eyes, so what you're giving me must be something good."

What they didn't know was that the talismans Ye Yu gave them would ultimately save their lives, allowing him and Yu Pei to escape and live abroad.

Zhu Deng only took one, and said to Zhou Xueyang, "These three are for you. I'm all alone and have no enemies. You have a family to support, so it's safer to take more."

Neither of them doubted whether the small talisman Ye Yu had given them was a lie; instead, they carefully put it away.

The three exchanged contact information, and Ye Yu told them they could contact her if they encountered any problems.

After chatting for a while, Ye Yu went back to her room to wash up.

When she finished getting ready and went downstairs, Zhou Xueyang, Yu Pei, and Zhu Deng were already waiting for her.

Ye Yu stepped forward with a smile: "I've troubled you these past few days. I'm about to set off now."

She then looked at Zhou Xueyang and Yu Pei and said, "I wish you happiness and joy."

Yu Pei took Zhou Xueyang's arm, a happy smile on her face: "I wish you a safe journey."

The group saw Ye Yu off at the guesthouse. Zhu Deng originally wanted to take Ye Yu directly to the airport, but Ye Yu didn't want to reveal her whereabouts.

So Zhu Deng arranged for a large truck to be used for hauling goods, and asked the driver to give Ye Yu a ride.

In the car, Ye Yu received a call from Zhao Jing, who said that she and Xu Jia were planning to go to the company yesterday morning when their car was rear-ended on the way.

Xu Jia got out of the car to see what was going on, when suddenly several people got out of the car behind them and tried to grab them.

They resisted, and two of them, growing impatient, struck them with their palms.

Fortunately, they always carried the bracelet Ye Yu had given them with them. Two beams of blue light shot out, knocking the two attackers to the ground.

Later, the people sent by the Zhao family arrived and said that several of them also blocked their way.

Finally, just to be on the safe side, the Zhao family took them into their home.

Knowing they were at the Zhao family's residence, Ye Yu immediately changed her route and headed towards Suzhou, where the Zhao family was located.

She no longer concealed her route, thanked the truck driver, got out of the truck, and headed straight for the nearest airport.

As Ye Yu was leaving the airport in the evening, preparing to take a taxi to the Zhao family's house, a sleek black sedan pulled up in front of her.

The car window opened, revealing the two Zhao brothers inside. Zhao Yuci, sitting in the passenger seat, snapped his fingers at Ye Yu: "Get in."

Zhao Yuxuan, who was holding the steering wheel, also glanced at Ye Yu, but did not say anything.

Ye Yu opened the car door and got in, asking, "Why did you come to pick me up?"

Zhao Yuci chewed her gum and said, "We heard from your mother that you were coming to Suzhou, so we came here to pick you up."

"Thank you."

"No need to be so polite, we're all relatives anyway."

Hearing Zhao Yuci's words, Ye Yu raised an eyebrow: "Relatives?"

"Yes, isn't that amazing? When we brought your mother over yesterday, one of the older folks in the family thought she looked familiar. After asking her more closely, we found out that she was also from the Zhao family. But not from our branch. In fact, you should call me brother."

Ye Yu ignored his last sentence and nodded, saying, "That is indeed quite a coincidence."

In Ye Yu's memory, she had never met her maternal grandparents. However, Zhao Jing was just an ordinary person with no internal strength whatsoever, and she probably didn't even know about her relationship with the Zhao family.

Zhao Yuci turned around and looked at Ye Yu excitedly, asking, "Did you really kill Shan Shuhai?"

Before Ye Yu could answer, he continued, "It must have been you who killed him! We found a small piece of Shan Shuhai's whip on the ground, along with his ashes. You're amazing, how did you manage to burn him to ashes in such a short time? If we hadn't arrived earlier, that small pile of ashes would probably have been blown away by the wind. Luckily, my brother was smart and sent the ashes for testing, and it turned out to be him."

Ye Yu glanced at Zhao Yuxuan, surprised that this person had actually sent the ashes for testing.

She nodded and admitted, "I killed him. As for burning him to ashes so quickly, it was just a matter of using a fireball talisman."

"What? Fireball talismans are that powerful? I heard the fireball talismans sold in Dingjia Village the other day were very powerful. You didn't use one of these, did you?"

"Correct."

Zhao Yuci said in disbelief, "Don't tell me you made those talismans."

Ye Yu shook her head this time: "My master made it."

Zhao Yuci stopped talking and only gave Ye Yu a thumbs up, saying, "Your master is really awesome."
