Chen Qingzhou tiptoed to the back of a thick tree trunk, pricked up his ears, and wanted to listen to what the two were talking about.

"sit down."

Under the stone pavilion, Xuanyuan Changqing pointed to the stone bench.

The woman in white did not come to sit down, but just looked at Xuanyuan Changqing deeply.

Xuanyuan Changqing shook his head and sighed: "Yuyao, when did you come to Tianshan?"

The woman named Yuyao said coldly: "Last night."

Xuanyuan Changqing nodded, "No wonder I heard some young disciples talking about it this morning. It turned out to be you."

The woman asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"

Xuanyuan Changqing shook his head slightly, "Nothing. Why are you doing this? I explained it to you clearly last year at Muyun Mountain. Why...why did you come to Tianshan again?"

Chen Qingzhou was shocked. It turned out that the two of them had known each other for a long time, but it seemed that this beautiful woman was carrying a sense of resentment.

After hearing the question, the woman's innate frosty aura finally softened a little. She sighed and said slowly: "I didn't come here to ask about my sister's whereabouts. I know that back then... you had her in your heart, but what happened was not your fault after all..."

"elder sister?"

The more Chen Qingzhou listened, the more excited he became. Could this be another incestuous love triangle?

There was a moment of silence in the stone pavilion, and Xuanyuan Changqing said, "I am glad that you can understand. If that is the case, why did you come to Tianshan again?"

The woman said with a hint of anger, "You said last year at Muyun Mountain that you would come to South City to see me. Why didn't you break your promise?"

Xuanyuan Changqing apologized, "There are indeed too many things going on in the sect. I haven't had the chance to go to South City to pay a visit to General Yan. It's my fault."

But the woman asked, "Why should I see my father? Tell me, if you don't come to see me, do you hate me?"

"Nancheng? Yan Shuai? Dad?"

Chen Qingzhou thought for a moment and realized that this girl was from Yu Jianyan's family.

Xuanyuan Changqing shook his head, "You are Yue'er's sister, how could I hate you."

Upon hearing this, the frost on Yan Yuyao's face faded a little.

Chen Qingzhou finally understood that this woman was the daughter of Yan Kang, the commander of the Nanfeng Army in Qianlilongcheng, and also the sister of Yan Qingyue who disappeared three years ago.

Xuanyuan Changqing added: "But, I am a little afraid of you."

Yan Yuyao was surprised and asked, "How could you, a world-famous swordsman, be afraid of me?"

Xuanyuan Changqing smiled and said, "I'm afraid you will ask me for your sister!" After that, he suddenly fell silent.

Yan Yuyao also felt a little embarrassed, so she slowly sat down, looking into the distance with her autumn-water eyes, and murmured after a long time.

"I remember three years ago, when you first came to South City to see Daddy, you said you were looking for your sister. Daddy asked you harshly, and you finally told him the truth. Daddy was furious and beat you severely. You just stood there stupidly, without fighting back or dodging, and you fell down after three palm strikes from Daddy... That was our Yan family's Cloud-Cut Palm. Aren't you afraid of death?"

Xuanyuan Changqing laughed bitterly and mocked himself, "Marshal Yan entrusted his precious daughter to us, but in the end... Well, of course he would be angry. Even if he wanted to beat me to death, I would have no complaints. Besides, Marshal Yan still showed mercy, otherwise with my cultivation level at that time, I'm afraid I would be unable to get up after one blow."

Yan Yuyao said anxiously: "But...but it's not your fault, it's that Ximen..."

"Okay," Xuanyuan Changqing interrupted, "You don't know what happened back then, so I won't say more. Although I haven't given up on looking for Yue'er's whereabouts in the past few years, I have searched almost all over Zhongzhou and still found nothing. I really don't know where she went. As for you, since you didn't come to ask me this, why did you come to Tianshan?"

Chen Qingzhou was puzzled after hearing this, and thought to himself, "With Senior Brother Xuanyuan's reputation and connections in Zhongzhou, it has been so long, but he still can't find out the whereabouts of Senior Sister Yan. Could it be that she is no longer alive?"

Yan Yuyao did not answer, but stared at the silver mountain in the distance in a daze, with a rare tenderness in her expression.

"Do you remember? When you were recuperating at my house that year, you said that my temper was like the ice and snow in your Tianshan Mountains, which never melts all year round and is chilling to the bones."

Xuanyuan Changqing was stunned. "I didn't expect that after a few years, you still remember it. Yes, I was seriously injured by Yan Shuai at that time, but he took care of me later and stayed in the charming Yanyu Tower to recuperate. You were still a willful child at that time, and you didn't have a good face to me. You only blamed me for losing my sister and mixed some sand, stones, insects and ants in my food. But later I found that you were not much better to other people, so I said that to you."

"hehe."

Yan Yuyao smiled slightly, and she looked exceptionally bright and beautiful under the sunlight. At this moment, the ice and snow on the Tianshan Mountains seemed to melt.

She turned around and smiled, "I grew up in Jiangnan and have never seen snow. After hearing what you said, I've been thinking about coming to Tianshan to see if what you said is right."

Xuanyuan Zhangqing was a little surprised and smiled bitterly, "Just for this? Besides, you look pretty when you smile, don't be so stern. I've heard many young disciples praise you behind your back."

Yan Yuyao was startled, and her face, which was as white as snow, suddenly turned a little red. She turned around, with her back to Xuanyuan Changqing, and asked in a low voice: "What...what did they say?"

Xuanyuan Changqing said: "A gentleman loves a beautiful lady. There are far more male disciples than female disciples in Tianci Sect. It is normal for someone to praise her."

Yan Yuyao said "Oh" and her voice became even quieter. "Then...then what do you say?"

Xuanyuan Changqing hesitated for a moment, "To be honest, although there are strict rules for this kind of thing, it cannot be completely stopped. Although I am an elder, it is not easy for me to say too much. As long as their words are not excessive, it's fine."

Yan Yuyao turned around suddenly, her brows furrowed, her hands clenched tightly, "That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking... I'm asking how you see me... my..."

Xuanyuan Zhangqing was a little confused, "What are you looking at?"

Seeing that he didn't understand and she couldn't say it out loud, Yan Yuyao stamped her feet in anger and muttered in a low voice: "You are so stupid, no wonder my sister doesn't like you!"

Xuanyuan Changqing didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"

Yan Yuyao raised her head, regaining some of her usual cold expression, "Nothing... nothing, are you going down the mountain?"

Xuanyuan Changqing did not hide it from her, "Well, the human race is suffering right now, and all the major sects have sent disciples to garrison in various places to defend Zhongzhou together, so as to prevent the monsters from taking advantage of the situation. I am going to the Xuanyuan family with the junior brother Chen just now, and two junior brothers and sisters, and by the way, find out the situation in Nanmanzhou."

Yan Yuyao asked curiously: "Xuanyuan family? Isn't that your family?"

Xuanyuan Changqing nodded, "But I've been away from home for many years, and I'm afraid many people don't recognize me. This time I just happened to go back to visit my family, or... I can also look for your sister's whereabouts there."

Yan Yuyao looked at Xuanyuan Changqing and said, "Okay, this trip is full of dangers. If you have any problems, you can come to Nancheng to find me. Your junior brother just now looked unreliable, so you must be careful."

Xuanyuan Changqing was relieved to see that her attitude towards him had changed a lot. He was about to thank her when he heard a scream behind him.

"Hey!"
