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

"Then let's go!"

When Wen Hujiu opened his mouth and promised another ten thousand gold pieces, how could he not be tempted by such a large sum of money!

Upon hearing Helian Yun Shen's reply, Wen Hu Jiu raised his hand to indicate that they could depart. Without refusing, he stood up, took his belongings, and left Mingjian Manor with Wen Hu Jiu and Xiao Bai.

Let Wei Changfeng deal with the corpses on the ground here!

After seeing these people off, Wei Changfeng looked at the corpses on the ground and sighed deeply.

The sword-testing tournament, which should have been a grand event, has been marred by so many mishaps and deaths. Moreover, most of these deaths were caused by Helian Yun Shen, the Young Master of Illusionary Sound. It's likely that the martial world will remain unstable for some time.

Many people will try to kill Helian Yun Shen.

Outside the villa

Are we going to find your nephew, Baili Dongjun?

"Ah."

Wen Hu Jiu didn't deny it, and simply hummed in agreement.

Upon hearing Wen Hujiu's reply, Helian Yun Shen said nothing but quietly followed behind him. The two quickly made their way along the road and soon encountered the person they were looking for.

"Brother Lei, Brother Luo, what are you two doing here?"

"We'll wait for you to come, and then we'll go down together to find Baili Dongjun."

Lei Mengsha pointed to the cliff in front of him and said to Helian Yunshen. When Wen Hujiu heard that his nephew had fallen off the cliff, his face turned very ugly. Without any hesitation, he used his lightness skill to rush down the cliff.

"Do you want to come down with me?"

"Of course I'll go with him. That Wenhujiu guy owes me a whopping 20,000 gold coins, which is all glittering gold!"

After saying that, Helian Yun Shen looked at Xiao Bai beside him.

Carrying the little girl, they followed Wen Hujiu down the cliff, only to be terrified by the little white dog that Helian Yunshen was with, screaming loudly. Lei Mengsha and Luo Xuan exchanged a glance before also descending the cliff.

A strong wind kept blowing around me, and with a few leaps and the help of my light-footed skills, I quickly and safely landed at the bottom of the cliff.

"Young Master Huanyin, could you please tell me what you're doing?"

Terrified, Xiao Bai patted her chest and offered her opinion to Helian Yun Shen. Helian Yun Shen completely ignored the girl's suggestion and continued walking forward.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Bai quickly followed Helian Yun Shen.

Lei Mengsha and Luo Xuan, who had just landed, followed Helian Yunshen's footsteps.

Below the cliff,

The group groped their way to find Baili Dongjun's whereabouts. Amidst the sounds of their groping, they heard a tune that was not from the Northern Plains.

"This isn't a tune from our area, everyone be careful."

The moment Luo Xuan, a connoisseur of music, heard the piece, he knew it wasn't theirs and warned everyone to be careful. However, Helian Yun Shen, standing in the crowd, showed a different kind of reaction upon hearing it.

Without notifying anyone, they rushed towards the direction from which the music was coming at lightning speed. Some were so fast they felt a gust of wind pass by.

"What's wrong with Yun Shen?"

Lei Mengsha found Helian Yun Shen's unusual behavior quite strange, muttered something to herself, and then chased after him. Seeing Lei Mengsha follow, Luo Xuan didn't stop and followed her.

"Master Wen, shall we chase after them too?"

Seeing the three of them rushing out, Xiaobai asked Wenhujiu a question. Wenhujiu thought for a moment and then replied.

Let's catch up and take a look!

Using his full lightness skill, Helian Yun Shen swept past the cliff like a gust of wind.

Soon they arrived at the direction from which the melody was coming from, and there they saw a woman dressed as a man sitting on a rock playing a tune.

A man stood below the cliff, wielding a long sword and performing a sword dance. This sword was the Heavenly Sword of the Famous Sword Manor.

When the two ran out, they also took the sword with them.

Upon arriving here, Helian Yun Shen's gaze did not fall on Baili Dong Jun, but rather on the woman sitting on the rock—a face he had longed for for many years.

"Brother Helian?"

Baili Dongjun, who was practicing his sword dance, saw Helian Yun Shen, stopped his dance, looked at Helian Yun Shen with some doubt, and muttered Helian Yun Shen's name.

Helian Yun Shen pretended not to hear Baili Dongjun's question and walked straight towards Yue Xi.

Yuexi was puzzled when she saw Helian Yun Shen approaching, and at the same time became extremely vigilant, after all, Helian Yun Shen's strength was beyond her ability to deal with.

"Brother Helian, what are you doing?"

Upon seeing this scene, Baili Dongjun stood directly in front of Yuexi and questioned Helian Yunshen.

He was worried that Helian Yun Shen would harm Yue Xi.

"Step aside!"

The two cold words were uttered by Helian Yun Shen, but Baili Dong Jun remained unmoved and stood in front of Yue Xi.

At the same time, he spoke to Helian Yun Shen.

"I will not let you hurt Yueyao."

"Yueyao?"

These two words reached Helian Yun Shen's ears. He looked up at Yue Xi behind Baili Dongjun and asked her.

You said your name is Yueyao?

"Young Master Helian, do you have any doubts about my name? Or is there something wrong with my name?"

Standing up, Yuexi looked at Helian Yunshen and replied to him in a firm and resounding voice. Hearing Yuexi's words, Helian Yunshen clenched his fists tightly.

Hold it and then release it.

"You said your name is Yueyao, do you still remember what you said four years ago?"

Taking a deep breath, Helian Yun Shen asked Yue Xi again.

Hearing Helian Yun Shen's words, Yue Xi felt even more confused, not quite understanding what he was talking about.

“Young Master Helian, I think you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I don’t remember seeing you four years ago either.”

He replied to Helian Yun Shen with a simple "I've mistaken you for someone else" and "I've never seen you before."

These words struck Helian Yun Shen like a bolt from the blue. His long-held convictions and deep longing crumbled in an instant.

wrong person?

How could there be two women in the world who look exactly alike? He must have mistaken her for someone else.

got the wrong person?

A desolate, cold smile appeared on his face, and then he looked at Yuexi and slowly spoke.

"I mistook you for someone else. I mistook you for someone else."

This repetitive reply revealed the desolation in Helian Yun Shen's heart. Yue Xi remained puzzled and bewildered by Helian Yun Shen's behavior.

At the same time, he dared not have too much contact with Helian Yunshen.

Such people are neither controllable nor something to be exploited. If misused, they will ultimately suffer the consequences, jeopardizing their safety.

Yuexi pondered this, but didn't think about anything else.
