Fairy, help me practice

　Yu Ling smiled bitterly: "I...I didn't see clearly."

　"She just restrained Li You? Did you reveal your name, master, or sect?"

　Yu Ling poured herself a glass of wine and nodded, "I reported it, but it was useless. The man took action immediately after hearing it."

　"Is it the Demon Sect?"

　Yu Ling shook her head: "Such a light and clear spiritual energy, it is definitely not something that belongs to the Demon Sect."

　Chen Yao felt the situation was extremely difficult and asked Yun Li and Yun Jiang, "Who do you think this could be? Or which faction could it be?"

　Yun Li never left the house, so how could she have imagined this?

　Yun Jiang thought for a moment and said, "That sounds like my stupid traitor."

　"Who are you calling an idiot?" Yun Li couldn't stand Yun Jiang insulting her master the most.

　"She is the old fool, and you are the young fool." Yun Jiang drank with a smile.

　Yunli's silver teeth were gnashing.

　Chen Yao held her clenched fist and calmed her down: "If it really is Master, then it will be easy to deal with."

　"Then let's go and take a look."

　Yunli was delighted.

　"She may not be there," Chen Yao said, "but it's better to go and see her."

　Yu Ling shook her head: "The reason I stayed here was to observe that person. She should be not far away now. It's just..."

　"Just what?"

　Yunli hates people who stutter the most.

　Yu Ling took out a jade token from her waist and released the image on it.

　Images of Chen Yao, Yun Li, and Yun Jiang.

　"This is the sect's communication card we seized after we landed. In the afternoon, the sect sent out wanted warrants for the three of you."

　Yun Jiang glanced at his own image and sneered: "After making myself so ugly, I'm not worried that they will be able to recognize me."

　Yu Ling glanced at her. Although she didn't know this person, she didn't care much about Chen Yao's affairs.

　"If you want to go find that person, it's best to split up. The three of you together will make you too conspicuous."

　She said to Chen Yao.

　Chen Yao thought it made sense, but he couldn't say it proactively, for fear that Yun Li would be unhappy.

　But Yunli was understanding after all: "Junior Brother, I'll go back to Qiankunwudipan. Many of your senior sisters are there, and I'll tell them the news. I originally planned to find Master and listen to his instructions before deciding our next move. Besides, silly Huibai is still in seclusion to break through, and I'm not too worried."

　Chen Yao was a little reluctant to leave. After all, they had only been reunited for two days. However, Qiankunwudipan was now unsealed, so she could come out at any time.

　"Then find the master and I'll tell Senior Sister."

　Yun Li nodded, opened her mouth and took the food that Chen Yao fed her, then her figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.

　Chen Yao looked at Yun Jiang, who raised an eyebrow: "Why are you looking at me? Can't I eat this meal?"

　"Okay, take your time."

　The little girl next to her was so shocked when she saw Yun Li disappear in the blink of an eye that her eyes widened.

　"Big brother, what kind of magic is this? Can you teach me?"

　As soon as she spoke, Chen Yao remembered that there was such a little thing.

　"What's wrong with this little one?"

　When Yu Ling heard him ask this, she was a little hesitant.

　"My name is not Xiaobutian, my name is Linghong!"

　The little girl protested, thinking that Chen Yao treated her too much like a child, even though she was a child herself.

　"Let her come to me!"

　The green gourd on Chen Yao's waist made a sound of nine falls.

　Yun Jiang's eyes fixed for a moment, and then she ate the food as if nothing had happened. This time she discovered that Jiu Luo was not restrained by her restriction at all, but when she teased Chen Yao, she controlled him instead.

　Why did Jiuluo remain silent when he was being restrained?

　This is not like her character. Does she have any other intentions?

　Chen Yao naturally didn't know what Yun Jiang was thinking. He felt that if Xiao Linghong could follow Jiu Luo, it would be a great fortune.

　When Yu Ling heard Jiu Luo's voice, she was stunned at first, and then stared at Chen Yao in disbelief.

　Chen Yao slowly took down the green gourd and placed it in front of her: "You guessed right, this is your master."

　Yu Ling mechanically turned her gaze away from Chen Yao's face. At that moment, her mind was blank and she just knelt down mechanically to salute.

　"Disciple Yu Ling, I pay my respects to the Grandmaster."

　"No need to be polite! I'm no longer the leader of the Mingyang Sect. I'm just your grandmaster. Grandmaster knows that you have a prejudice against men because of your father's affairs, and Chen Yao is not necessarily a good man..."

　"Fairy, you are going too far." Chen Yao interrupted.

　Jiu Luo ignored him: "But now, the sect has undergone drastic changes, and the South Sea is indistinguishable from the righteous and the evil. We and Chen Yao are in the same boat. You have been righteous since childhood. Although we haven't seen you for many years, your sword will has become even purer. It's not a bad thing to turn a disaster into a blessing."

　A green mist emanated from the gourd and poured onto Yu Ling's head. Yu Ling's aura changed completely, and his sword intent became more restrained.

　Chen Yao knew that her sword would be more domineering and fierce.

　"So, follow Chen Yao and build a good career!"

　A clear light emanated from the mouth of the gourd and drew Ling Hong in.

　Yu Ling kowtowed and thanked him: "I, your disciple, will only obey your orders."

　The green gourd didn't respond.

　Chen Yao put away the gourd and looked at Yu Ling: "Let's go!"

　Yu Ling looked up and found that they were the only two left at the dinner table.

　Although she was still reluctant to travel with Chen Yao, she had to follow Jiu Luo's arrangements.

　"Are you really willing to risk your life to restore order in the South China Sea?"

　Yu Ling never thought that Chen Yao would be such a righteous person.

　"I don't want to."

　Chen Yao answered decisively.

　Yu Ling sneered, it was just as expected.

　"But I am willing to run and sacrifice for the people I love."

　Yu Ling stood there in a daze.

Chapter 325: The Strange Man on the Stone

　"My mother...what did she say to you before she died?"

　Yu Ling landed on a mountain top with rustling leaves, looking at the clouds gathering and dispersing below.

　Chen Yao stood behind her, and for the first time he noticed how frail the girl looked against the backdrop of the magnificent landscape.

　But he felt that saying those words was somewhat hypocritical, so he just smiled and said, "She said it to me, so I won't tell you."

　Yu Ling turned around and glared at him: "That's my mother!"

　Chen Yao caught a glimpse of a condensed tear from the corner of her eye.

　Actually, she was quite pitiful. She should have been looking forward to the future in her prime years, but she was cruelly betrayed by her father. After she finally regained her body, she had to watch her mother die.

　Yu Ling doesn't have much life experience and hasn't met many good people, so it's understandable that she developed an extreme personality.

　Having said that, her personality is mostly chivalrous and generous, and less narrow-minded and rebellious. At most, she is not very forgiving in her words.

　This is also the reason why Chen Yao did not abandon her.

　Besides, he felt guilty about his mother sacrificing herself to become a sword.

　"It's not my business?"

　But he still didn't bother to say the words she asked.

　"You! It turns out that all men are bad!"

　Yu Ling stomped her feet angrily, transformed into sword energy, and flew into the sky again.

　Chen Yao rushed in, but lost sight of Yu Ling.

　"Why are you running so fast? If you can handle it alone, why bother asking me to do it?"

　He shouted loudly several times, but there was no response. There was nothing worth noting in his consciousness except the vast white fog.

　This is very wrong.

　No matter how fast Yu Ling's sword is, it can't be faster than the mother sword under Chen Yao's feet.

　He stopped chasing and fell straight down, rushing into the valley below in an instant, splashing a golden stream.

　The sound of the stream gurgled, and a few fish swam downstream with their tails tucked in.

　Chen Yao stepped onto the shore and heard a long roar exploding in his ears.

　He turned around and saw a man lying on his back with his chest exposed on a large rock in the middle of the stream.

　The man's round belly gradually shrank with the long howl, and soon his bony ribs were exposed.

　He howled for a long time and then stopped, but the sound was still like a loud drum or bell ringing in the mountains.

　"The sword is good."

　The man lifted up his disheveled hair, wiped his greasy face so that his eyebrows and eyes could not be seen, and stared at Chen Yao's sword while shaking his head.

　Chen Yao gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and looked at the man quietly.

　He found that he couldn't see through this man.

　The man stretched out his arms, stretched out his fingers and grabbed a fat fish from the air, and ate it alive with a "crunch crunch" sound, chewing until his mouth was full of blood.

　"Many years ago, when I saw this sword, it wasn't this sharp."

　The man pulled out a fish bone, picked his teeth, and reached behind his back, throwing out a sword similar to the one in Chen Yao's hand.

　The sword cut through the air and nailed in front of Chen Yao, causing mud to splash and a buzzing sound.

　"Your Excellency? What happened to the owner of the sword you took?"

　Chen Yao took a look at the sword and confirmed that it belonged to the three Yu sisters.

　The man rolled his eyes and looked at the sky.

　He seemed to be thinking about his past life. He thought like a stone statue for a long time before saying, "I don't remember..."

　He frowned, his grease-stained eyebrows glued together, and clenched his teeth. "There's no taste of human flesh in my mouth. I guess they didn't kill them, right?"

　"Where's the one that just flew over?"

　Chen Yao was increasingly unable to understand this man's origins and suspected that he was related to Yu Ling's disappearance.

　The man dropped the fishbone, jumped off the rock, waded over, and picked up the sword. "Never mind, I'll take you there."

　"Where?"

　The man did not answer Chen Yao, but instead rummaged through his trousers, picked up his sword and headed towards the source of the stream.

　Chen Yao didn't know whether he should follow.

　"This man is extraordinary, follow him."

　Yun Jiang and Jiu Luo rarely spoke in unison, and then snorted at each other.

　Chen Yao could only follow the man obediently and go upstream.

　The setting sun gradually sank to the west, scattering golden light on the mountains. The stream was very long, and it looked like a golden ribbon, flowing through the jungle with rustling fallen leaves, making a sound in the distance.

　In the woods, where the occasional calls of birds and animals could be heard, the footsteps of the man and Chen Yao could be heard making a rustling sound.

　The man stopped again, scratching his head and looking around for a long time before continuing walking.
