The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

Despite their speculations, the two ultimately decided to follow the chaotic traces and footprints.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the two quickly spotted the enemy's location thanks to their combined efforts. Just as they had guessed, the people who had taken their horses were the bandits and outlaws from the surrounding mountains.

The two of them charged directly into the so-called bandits and outlaws. Helian Yun Shen used illusion magic in his eyes, while Yue Yao brandished her soft sword.

The entire stronghold was taken down in a very short period of time.

All those who committed arson, murder, and looting were executed.

The two will also find their horses.

The two men paused briefly, gazing at the corpses in the mountain stronghold, before ignoring them. They figured the wild beasts of the mountains could simply carry them away and devour them; there was no risk of plague in such a place.

…………

We walked out of the forest

The two rode their horses back the way they came, and once they reached the main road, they did not continue down the side road.

Upon reaching the town, they stopped at an inn to rest, and Helian Yun Shen bought some Xuan paper. In his room at the inn, he neatly copied the "Three Styles of Buddha's Palm" onto the Xuan paper. After finishing copying both copies, he opened the door and gave one to Yue Yao.

Boom boom boom! ! !

After a series of knocks, no one answered, which puzzled Helian Yun Shen. Fortunately, the waiter responded to Helian Yun Shen.

"This gentleman and the young master who came with you have left."

"Oh."

With a simple "okay," she packed her things and returned to her room. Before closing the door, she told the waiter to prepare some food and bring it to her room.

In a teahouse outside

"Young Miss, how's it going on your end?"

"Not good. We haven't found anyone with a natural martial vein. At the same time, I re-examined Helian Yun Shen and realized that he is not a person with a natural martial vein in the true sense."

When questioned by her subordinates, Yueyao lied to them as always. Perhaps it wasn't the first time, or perhaps Yueyao's cold demeanor was particularly convincing; at this moment, there was no possibility that she would be discovered.

After saying this, he continued to question his subordinates with a cold face.

"How's it going with Yuexi?"

"It seems that the Second Miss has found the right person, but it cannot be confirmed. When she wanted to take him away, someone with considerable strength appeared, and it could have been successful."

However, the second young lady seemed to have made some plans and did not continue to abduct people.

Moreover, that person's identity was somewhat unusual, and our actions at the time alerted some people.

............"

Upon hearing Yueyao's question, the guard relayed the situation regarding the Second Miss. After hearing his subordinate's explanation and report, Yueyao reflected that her stay in Beili hadn't been too short.

Then he spoke again.

"We've been out for quite a while now, we should return to the Outer Heavens. Otherwise, it'll take too long, and Yueqing alone won't be able to handle those people."

"Young Miss, shall we meet up with the Second Young Miss before setting off back?"

"Ah."

Yueyao gave a simple "hmm," then stood up to say goodbye to Helian Yunshen. The guards, seeing that Yueyao wanted to say goodbye, didn't disturb her.

In the inn

“Young Master Xi, you’ve come back just in time. I’ve already completed two copies of the ‘Three Styles of Buddha’s Palm’, and this one is for you.”

Seeing Yueyao return, Helian Yun Shen directly handed her the "Three Forms of Buddha Palm" martial arts manual. Yueyao glanced down at the paper in her hand without a word and simply put it away.

Only after completing these steps did he speak.

"Young Master Helian, let's part ways here! I have some matters to attend to and it is inconvenient for me to continue traveling with you."

Moreover, this is my private matter, and I urge Young Master Helian not to interfere.

"That's it!"

Hearing the words of parting, Helian Yunshen couldn't help but feel a little lost, and his tone revealed a hint of disappointment. But when he looked up at Yueyao's eyes again, that disappointment had already disappeared.

With a gentle smile on her face:

"Young Master Xi, please be careful on your journey. I look forward to seeing you again."

"Young Master Helian, please be careful. I also look forward to adventuring with you in the martial world next time."

While uttering such carefree words, Yueyao was deeply reluctant to part with Helian Yunshen, but alas, this reluctance could only be abandoned.

To make separate arrangements.

After lunch, the two officially parted ways.

Yueyao and her guards gathered outside the town and then left, while Helian Yunshen stayed in the town to rest for another night before setting off.

Second day

Helian Yunshen mounted his swift horse, a smile playing on his lips as he looked ahead, and left the town.

…………

Spring goes and autumn comes, the four seasons cycle!

Time flows like a great river, never stopping for anyone.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye. Helian Yun Shen is still seventeen years old. With his tall and handsome figure, he exudes an aura of elegance and unparalleled charm.

After separating from Yueyao, he should have continued to roam the world, but when he returned to his hometown, he found that his master had passed away.

For this reason, Helian Yunshen spent three years in the town observing mourning for his master and did not venture into the martial arts world.

Helian Yun Shen, leading his prized horse Wu Zhui away from the town once again, was just as aimless as before, letting Wu Zhui lead him on his adventures in the martial world.

"Black Steed! Black Steed, you have finally brought me to a more prosperous place, no longer that remote mountain forest."

Looking up at the bustling city before him, Helian Yun Shen almost burst into tears. During this time, he had let Wu Zhui take him wherever he wanted.

The result was that they had to endure all kinds of hardships and sleep outdoors, and they were almost turned into wild men.

Upon hearing Helian Yun Shen's complaints, Wu Zhui hummed a few times, expressing its dissatisfaction with Helian Yun Shen.

He dismounted and patted his horse, Wuzhui, to comfort it.

Then, leading the black horse by the reins, they entered the city before them. After entering the city, they first found an inn to rest at and left the black horse there.

He then went out onto the street.

"I feel that the level of prosperity here is probably not much worse than that of Tianqi City!"

Walking on the streets of the city, watching the pedestrians coming and going, the vendors setting up stalls and selling their wares, and all kinds of shops, Helian Yunshen was deeply moved.

As he walked, Helian Yun Shen saw a tavern. Realizing that he hadn't had a drink in a long time, he couldn't resist going in for a couple of drinks.

Driven by this idea,

Helian Yun Shen stepped into the tavern and found it rather deserted.
