Fairy, help me practice

　"Snapped!"

　"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't have any tricks up your sleeve, I won't spank you. Back!"

　Hui Ding then obediently recited it backwards three times, fearing the pain on his buttocks, and even more afraid that Chen Yao would torture him cruelly with blood and energy, so that there would be no more mistakes.

　"Now I really didn't lie to you..."

　Hui Ding looked at Chen Yao pitifully, without any trace of his previous arrogance.

　"Um……"

　Chen Yao knew that she was no longer playing tricks

　Little thoughts.

　"Then...can you let me go now?"

　Huiding whispered.

　Chen Yao retracted the sword that was against her neck, and Hui Ding breathed a sigh of relief.

　“Well… I was originally planning to let you go, but as you know, I have some things I need to do in a hurry.

　But... you've been playing tricks time and time again, wasting my time and delaying my work. Now that it's too late, I won't rush anymore."

　After hearing what Chen Yao said, Hui Ding felt extremely regretful and said with a sad face, "I really know I was wrong."

　Chen Yao picked her up from the ground and patted her cheek, which was surprisingly soft and tender.

　Only when he saw her from such a close distance did he realize that the woman was surprisingly pretty and did not look like the arrogant and roaring girl she had just been.

　Seeing Chen Yao staring at him strangely, Hui Ding's face became even more bitter.

　Chen Yao smiled and said, "If you know you're wrong, you have to correct it."

　“How do I change…”

　Chen Yao put his arm around Hui Ding's shoulders, and Hui Ding's body trembled.

　"I can't... I can't do this... My great-grandmother clearly stipulated that I can't break it without permission... She'll find out..."

　As she spoke, her cheeks turned red.

　Chen Yao was stunned. No, sister, what are you thinking about?

　"Do you think you smell good? What are you thinking about?"

　He stretched out his hand wearing the storage ring in front of Hui Ding and showed the ring.

　"After this trip to the Sea Ruins, I've lost most of my magical instruments, and the ones I still have aren't up to par with my current realm. You must know how to enter the Mingyang Sect's Treasure Pavilion..."

　Hui Ding heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Chen Yao didn't want to take advantage of him: "You want me to take you to steal treasure?"

　Chen Yao pinched her chin and shook it: "How can it be called stealing when it comes to cultivating immortals? At most, you are betraying her and giving her some good things."

　Hui Ding was quite embarrassed and said with a bitter face: "If the great grandmother knew, she would beat me to death."

　"Oh..." Chen Yao let her go, "Then I'll have to beat you to death right now to save your great-grandmother from getting into trouble..."

　"It doesn't matter if my great-grandmother beats me to death! She can still heal me!"

　Hui Ding had a sunny face.

　"Okay, just figure it out."

　Chen Yao put his arm around her shoulders and rose into the air, then suddenly stopped.

　"You won't trip me up halfway, will you?"

　The hairs on Hui Ding's back stood up, and she immediately felt the blood in her body boiling. She shook her head repeatedly, indicating that she didn't dare.

　"Of course you can try. See if I can make you unable to live or die when you are under siege."

　Chen Yao said the last eight words while blowing into Hui Ding's ear.

　Hui Ding felt the hairs standing up from his earlobes all the way to his scalp.

　So, accompanied by Hui Ding, Chen Yao swaggered out of the valley and headed towards the treasure pavilion of Mingyang Sect.

　Along the way, the patrolling disciples from various peaks greeted Hui Ding one after another. Although they were curious about how she got such a close Taoist friend, they did not dare to inquire more since they thought that the Hui'an lineage was in power recently and they had always acted in secret.

　Flying over several green peaks, in the surging sea of ​​clouds, a thousand-foot-high tower with precious light scattering everywhere emerged from the clouds.

　"It's right in front."

　Hui Ding reminded him listlessly, and then took Chen Yao to fly to the bottom of the tower in the clouds.

　But Chen Yao grabbed her and said, "You're trying to play tricks again."

　Hui Ding was startled and cold sweat dripped from the tip of his nose.

Chapter 225 Huiding has no brains

　"You...what do you mean?"

　Hui Ding was like a frightened bird.

　Chen Yao pulled her to his side and snorted, "Are you trying to trick me into entering through the main gate and then send a signal to the sect disciples?"

　Hui Ding was stunned and cried out in grievance, "I didn't do that! I really didn't! You're too suspicious! I still have all this mess you planted on me, how could I possibly have any other thoughts?"

　Her eyes were wide open, looking at Chen Yao with innocence and grievance.

　Chen Yao stretched out his hand to cover the pair of watery eyes that made him feel inexplicably guilty, and said stubbornly: "Better safe than sorry, enter the cabinet from another place."

　Hui Ding pursed her rosy lips and tried to break free from Chen Yao's warm palm, but after thinking about it, she didn't dare to provoke this evil spirit again.

　"All right……"

　Chen Yao finally released his hand and tapped Hui Ding's forehead with his index finger, turning her big eyes aside and saying, "Lead the way."

　Hui Ding led the way angrily and began to climb upwards. When he reached about the seventh or eighth floor, he stopped.

　Chen Yao stopped immediately and stared at her with raised eyebrows.

　"You can't go any higher. There's a listening beast's eyeball up there that can sense any intruder with ill intentions."

　Hui Ding explained carefully.

　"The eyeball of the Diting Beast..."

　Isn't Di Ting good at listening to ears? Why is it an eyeball here?

　Chen Yao found it difficult to accept this information that went against common sense.

　Hui Ding stole a glance at him and noticed his expression. She couldn't help but smile arrogantly, obviously making fun of his ignorance, but in order to avoid being bullied by this vicious man, she hurriedly gave a serious explanation.

　"As the name suggests, Divine Listening Beasts are renowned for their keen hearing. However, ever since the collapse of Heaven, these already endangered Divine Beasts have suffered a tragic transformation, with all newly born creatures unexpectedly losing their hearing ability... However, Divine Beasts are exceptional after all. Driven by instinct, they have developed exceptionally sensitive eyes as a compensation."

　Chen Yao nodded. He didn't expect that the impact of the collapse of the heavenly way would be so bad. This statement seemed to make sense.

　Seeing Chen Yao's lack of clear reaction, Hui Ding added, "The one on top of the Treasure Pavilion was taken from an adult Di Ting that was nearly at enlightenment. Unfortunately, its heavenly path had collapsed, and so it became demonic. Sect Master... uh, Jiu Luo, after killing the demonized Di Ting, he immediately refined it and integrated it into the entire Treasure Pavilion's defensive formation."

　She glanced at Chen Yao, the corners of her mouth curling up with pride. "If there wasn't someone who knew how to enter to lead the way, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be fixed in his mind by the Di Ting Eyeball, and then be shattered by the closed formation, becoming part of the entire defensive formation."

　"That sounds brutal."

　Chen Yao looked up at the precious light emanating from behind the faint clouds, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.

　"Of course not! This Di Ting Eyeball and the entire Treasure Pavilion's formation can be considered a magical weapon! Sect Master... uh, Jiu Luo, Jiu Luo's weapon-refining skills are unrivaled in the entire Mingyang Sect. However, she rarely displays them in public, so many people are intimidated by her incredible talent and overlook the fact that she is actually an all-round genius."

　Sure enough, the useless people who can make it to the end are all abnormally strong.

　Chen Yao couldn't help but think so.

　Seeing that his expression was somewhat moved, Hui Ding became excited and wanted to say something else, but Chen Yao grabbed the top of his head, turned his head, and pushed it forward.

　"Stop talking nonsense. Are you trying to stall for time so you can secretly worry about your fellow disciples?"

　Hui Ding was stunned and stamped his feet anxiously: "I don't have it!"

　"If we dawdle for a while, it might not be the case."

　Hearing Chen Yao's voice gradually getting colder, Hui Ding did not dare to dawdle. He took out a jade talisman from his arms and pushed it towards the treasure pavilion.

　Where she was suspended, a ripple appeared, and a small opening appeared in the formation of the Treasure Pavilion.

　"Hurry, the formation I copied from my great-grandmother to open the Jade Gate can only last for three breaths."

　Seeing that Chen Yao actually had time to play origami in the sky, Hui Ding couldn't help but glare at him and slipped in. When she stood on the eaves of the eighth-floor attic, Chen Yao had already appeared in front of her.

　She opened her mouth, and her brief surprise was caught by Chen Yao.

　"Are you up to something again? You didn't expect me to act so quickly."

　Chen Yao glanced at her sideways.

　Hui Ding stamped his feet and said, "What good will it do me to harm you now? If I want to harm you, I have to wait until Great Grandmother wipes out what you planted for me..."

　Halfway through her words, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. She quickly covered her mouth with her eyes wide open.

　Chen Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing. This guy really didn't look like he had any scheming intentions.

　Just when he was about to urge Hui Ding to enter the pavilion, a heart-shaking shout suddenly erupted from the floor below, and even Chen Yao was shocked and turned pale.

　Soon, several Mingyang Sect disciples flew out from the lower floor and turned into meat paste after crashing into the formation shield that lit up in the Treasure Pavilion.

　A translucent spirit resembling a baby emerged from the mud.

　Hui Ding exclaimed: "Nascent Soul Stage!"

　However, before the Nascent Soul flew a few feet, a deafening "Ha-Pei" sound was heard from inside the building, and a drop of water foam shot out from the building, shattering the Nascent Soul.

　The water spray that hit the shield was just a mouthful of spit. The person in the building coughed loudly and cleared his throat.

　Chen Yao felt his legs stiffen a little and looked at Hui Ding warily.

　But Hui Ding remained calm and grabbed his wrist. "Hurry! This old monster has been awakened by these people. If you stay here any longer, you'll end up like them."

　Chen Yao had nowhere to retreat and could only follow Hui Ding into the attic.

　The window was lowered, blocking the mountain wind and coughing sounds outside.

　After a while, Chen Yao confirmed that there were no pursuers or ambushes, so he quietly asked Hui Ding, "Who was that just now?"

　Hui Ding glanced at him and said with some pride: "He is the ancestor of the Mingyang Sect who is in charge of the Treasure Pavilion..."

　She swaggered forward a few steps, rolled her eyes, and patted Chen Yao on the shoulder. "You're lucky, actually. This old freak usually hides in the bookshelf and sleeps for a long time, maybe not waking up for more than ten years. You're lucky, you saw him take action as soon as you arrived. You're really lucky!"

　Chen Yao stared at Hui Ding's beaming face for a long time and began to doubt his previous judgment of this guy.

　It's not that she has no heart, she just has no brains at all!

　In this situation, does she really not consider subduing me at all?

　Chen Yao was still very suspicious, but he was not too scared. After all, he was not alone.

　No matter what, since we are in Mingyang Sect, we should go to the Treasure Pavilion to see if there is the Ten Thousand Demons Heart Pearl.

　"Since he is the guardian of the Treasure Pavilion, he should know that we came in, right?"

　He stared at Hui Ding's face, said this sentence slowly, and connected the blood in her body, preparing to use her as a hostage when necessary.

　After hearing his words, Hui Ding was stunned for a moment.

Chapter 226 This guy is really not a good person

　"Are you out of your mind? If he knew we were coming, would I dare to bring you up here? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?"

　Hui Ding's eyes were filled with uncontrollable ridicule.

　Chen Yao looked at her and found that this girl really didn't notice her actions and plans, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

　Well...she's a nice person...easy to get along with.

　Hui Ding noticed the smile on Chen Yao's face this time, and she laughed too: "Do you like being scolded? You're happy when I scold you."

　Maybe it was because she was in a familiar place, but she was

　She was not worried at all about the blood and energy in her body at this moment.

　It's also possible that after spending some time with this guy, I discovered that he wasn't as fierce as I initially thought.

　She thought so.

　"If he can't detect the movements on every floor, then this guard is probably not competent."

　Chen Yao looked around and found that the shelves were filled with various magical instruments, many of which made him excited.
