Hearing this, Qingxi exhaled sadly.

"Yeah, I'm here with Senior Sister Yun after I finished dealing with the matter of Zhulin Garden today. During the days you left, I can only chatter to garlic pigs and mammoths every day, it's too sad."

Qingyang snorted, "I'm making an excuse, you just want to see Senior Sister Yun!"

Having been exposed, Qing Xi was not annoyed at all, and said with a chuckle: "Yes, I just want to see Senior Sister Yun. Brother, you can't 'only allow the state officials to set fires, and not allow the common people to light lamps'!" Said and glanced at Qingyang Yingying next to her had hints in her eyes.

Qingyang was hit seven inches at once, and his face turned red immediately.

But when he was in a panic trying to explain something, the other three present, including Yingying, all looked calm.

Qingyang rolled his eyes and found that everyone was calm, so he moved the topic away without a trace: "What are you doing sweating profusely?"

"Practice the sword. I just finished practicing."

"What kind of sword did you practice?"

"That goes without saying, of course it is 'A Thousand Streams of Clouds'."

Yunhai Qianliu is the signature sword style passed down from generation to generation in the Yun family. The Yun Wangfeng master, Yue Xuanzun and Yun Muting are all masters of Yunhai Qianliu.

Qingyang said sullenly: "Qingxi, you might as well change your surname to Yun."

Qing Xi walked briskly holding the mirror.The picture in the water shook for a while, and then, I saw two little girls walking in the spacious courtyard of Yueyuanyuan. They looked less than ten years old. When they saw Qingxi, they stood up obediently and called out softly, " Uncle Qingxi!"

"Yun Juan, Yun Shu, come here..." Qing Xi gave each of the two little girls a piece of soft candy, and then patted their heads one by one, "So cute..."

The little girl happily took her candy, and they all yelled, "Thank you uncle!"

Meng Yijue and the others looked at each other, looking at the two children they had never seen before, "This should be Yun Muting's new apprentice, right?"

At the same time, the two children also saw the portrait in the mirror in Qingxi's hand, their eyes widened immediately, and they asked in surprise: "Uncle Qingxi, who is that in the mirror?"

"Come on, let's all say hello." Qing Xi pointed out the people in the mirror to them one by one, "This is your Uncle Qingyang, Uncle Lingyuan, and your Tai... Tai Shishu!"

The two little girls saluted together and called out sweetly: "Uncle Qingyang, Uncle Lingyuan, Uncle Grand Master!"

When Meng Yijue heard it, he couldn't help but feel sad: I'm only 24, and I'm already an uncle...

Ling Yuan glanced at him keenly, and said: "Master is the youngest in the previous generation, and Senior Sister Yun is the first among us to be promoted to monk. I am not yet sixteen, and I am also a senior uncle. "

When Meng Yijue heard this, he felt a lot more at ease.He greeted the little girl in the water, "When Grand Master comes back, I will bring you something to eat."

Yun Juan and Yun Shu laughed happily, "Thank you Grand Master Uncle!"

Just as he was talking, a familiar cold female voice came from outside the screen: "Yun Juan, Yun Shu, what are you doing?"

The two little girls stopped laughing and saluted the visitor respectfully: "Master."

Qing Xi also stood up.As the position of the mirror moved, the people on the side of the water basin also saw the woman who had just entered the picture.

Yun Muting was wearing a snow-white Taoist robe, holding a porcelain plate in his hand, walking towards this side.Her long black hair was tied into a bun behind her head, and her appearance was a little more mature than a few years ago, revealing a calm and calm temperament.

Seeing the mirror in Qingxi's hand, Yun Muting was slightly startled, "Is this Master Meng and the others?"

Qing Xi grinned and said: "Yes! This is Junior Brother Lingyuan's water surface illusion technique, which can connect their water basin with my mirror. This time, Haoyue's team got a big win in the first test of the Immortal League Alliance Examination. If you win, you can bring glory to our sect!"

Yun Muting smiled, and said to the person in the mirror: "Congratulations."

She was about to ask about the competition in detail, when Qing Xi yelled: "They already told me about it just now, I will tell you about it myself later, so don't ask any more questions!" She rubbed her hands while talking , looking expectantly at the plate in Yun Muting's hand, "Senior Sister, shouldn't it be better for us to have dinner first?"

Qingyang on the side of the water basin was also very curious, "What's on the plate?"

Qing Xi proudly took the plate, brought it to the mirror, "I'll show you."

I saw many exquisite shrimp crystal bags neatly placed on the plate. The appearance is crystal clear and looks very delicious.

Qingyang exclaimed, and his saliva came down immediately: "Bao, Baozi..."

Qing Xi picked up a bun and put it into her mouth in front of him, eating with gusto: "Well, it's delicious... Senior Sister Yun's craftsmanship is really good!"

Her expression of eating was extremely enjoyable, and she seemed to be hungry at the side of the water basin.

Qingyang said angrily: "It's no wonder your face has become so round, I dare to eat and drink at Senior Sister Yun's house, and you are raised so well!"

Qing Xi looked up to the sky with a long smile: "Hahahaha!"

"Forget it, I'm going to eat too." Qingyang shook his head.Qing Xi blinked mischievously, "Master, Junior Brother, I look forward to your triumphant return! At that time, I will treat everyone to a big meal!"

Yun Muting's faint voice came from behind: "You treat me, and I cook?"

Qing Xi was not ashamed to speak, and said with a smile: "Of course."

"..."

They didn't talk any more after that.Qing Xi only said that everything is fine in Zhulinyuan, and let her elder brother and younger brother concentrate on taking the exam, and Haoyuezong has not had any major incidents recently.

"Oh, that's right." At the end of the conversation, Qing Xi inadvertently mentioned, "There has been a lot of restlessness in Riftwind Valley recently. I heard from the fellow practitioners over there that they saw one or two small monsters in the forest when they were patrolling the mountain. I don't know where I entered the fairy gate."

"Cracked Wind Valley?"

Rifting Wind Valley is located in a very remote part of Haoyue Sect, and there are few people. However, it is said that there is a ground fissure in the valley, and there is a deep gully under the ground fissure. It is an unknown area that people have never set foot in, and it is unknown where it leads.

The day before the re-examination, Yun Qi invited monks from various sects to visit Yanyun Sect.

Meng Yijue happily went.Under the leadership of the Yanyun sect, he came to the Huxin Pavilion together with Yueqingzun, Baixiao Zhenren and others from the same sect, and sat around a small table, tasting tea and drinking, while admiring the scenery of the lake and mountains.

He was tasting all kinds of exquisite pastries when he suddenly found two people walking behind him.

It's not uncommon for strangers to come to talk to you.

Ever since Meng Yijue took his seat in the Huxin Pavilion, monks from other sects came to offer tea one after another.Some used various excuses to get close to him, while others straightforwardly expressed their admiration for him and wanted to have a deep friendship with him, but he dealt with them gracefully.

Only this time, the visitor was unusual.

Meng Yijue turned his head and saw the Poison Smoker from the Mizong Gate standing with his hands down, and behind him was a tall man in a gray robe and a hood.

Most of the man's face was covered by the hood, only the lower half of his face was exposed, and the outline of his jaw was deep and tough.

Seeing Meng Yijue turning his head, the Poison Smoker smiled nervously, "Are you Shui Lingyuan's master?"

Meng Yijue hummed, thinking about the other party's intentions in his heart, when the man behind the poisonous smoke master spoke, his voice was low and magnetic: "Mr. Meng, my name is Yu Shengyan, and I am the master of Guiyan. I want to talk to you." talk."

He turned slightly to one side, and made a "please" gesture, "Can you show me your face...?"

If it's a normal strike up, Meng Yijue will find an excuse to decline with ease.But this man is obviously not here to strike up a conversation. Since he is the master of the poisonous smoke master, maybe...

The water poison that made Ling Yuan unconscious in the first test was made by him.

Meng Yijue's heart sank.He put down the dishes, wiped his lips with a handkerchief, and apologized to Yue Qingzun and Bai Xiao.Then he stood up and followed the gray-robed man to the empty table on the side of the lake pavilion.

The other party asked him to sit down very politely.After taking his seat, the man gently lifted the hood with both hands, revealing the face under the shadow.

It was the face of a mature man.He looks 40 to [-] years old, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, dignified facial features, facial lines that are vicissitudes and tough like a knife, and a pair of dark and deep eyes.

When the man raised his eyes to look at Meng Yijue, that sharp gaze seemed to be able to see through people, and shine straight into his heart.

Meng Yijue suddenly felt an endless chill penetrating deep into his heart, he couldn't help becoming vigilant, and clenched his finger bones.

Meng Yijue was able to conclude that this man's aura was strong and his breathing was deep, and his strength was probably much higher than the three masters of Haoyuezong.

The smoker at the side poured two cups of hot tea graciously and placed them in front of them.

Yu Shengyan picked up the teacup, but before he could speak, Meng Yijue asked bluntly: "Mr. Yu, do you know about the water poisoning?"

Hearing this, the man was slightly startled, and then smiled and said: "Sir, you are straight to the point. Yes, the water poison is made by me. The poison is colorless and tasteless, and can be distinguished by mid-level and high-level monsters, but water monsters are hard to detect."

He spoke slowly, calmly, without any guilt or shame.

"However, this poison will only block the Qi meridian of the water demon. I carefully controlled the dose so that it won't kill you, and there will be no after-effects."

Under Meng Yijue's gloomy gaze, the man turned the teacup with his slender fingers, and said in a low voice, "This is the white tea from the Yanyunzong Snow Mountain. After the new rain in the empty mountain, it's time to taste this white tea. Mr. Meng, please."

Meng Yijue just looked at him and didn't move.

Yu Shengyan raised his eyebrows, and Meng Yijue said indifferently: "Mr. Yu is very good at poison, and he knows the physique of water demons like the palm of his hand. Mr. Meng really dare not drink his tea."

The man froze for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, "Sir, don't be nervous. I have no malice towards you or Shui Lingyuan."

This person talked in a twist and turn, and Meng Yijue was not in the mood to do Tai Chi with him.He said bluntly: "Since this is the case, sir, you might as well be more frank. Please tell me what your relationship with the water demon is, and what is your relationship with my Lingyuan family."

Hearing this, the man snorted, "Your Lingyuan..."

This sentence seemed to be repeated unintentionally, but Meng Yijue caught some information from the change in the other party's expression.He suddenly had a premonition that this man not only had a deep understanding of water demons, but also had a close relationship with Ling Yuan.

Who will he be?

Meng Yijue couldn't help recalling his conjectures when he watched the game that day, and cold sweat slowly dripped down his forehead.

The man took a sip of his tea, and looked at Meng Yijue with his deep eyes.

The two looked at each other, scouting each other carefully, and they just confronted each other stiffly for a while.

Yu Shengyan suddenly said: "How long has the master adopted Ling Yuan?"

Meng Yijue stared into his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I have taken him in since the water demon exterminated the clan, and have always kept him by my side. Ling Yuan grew up in Haoyuezong, eating and drinking from Haoyuezong. Shui has now fully integrated into the Haoyue Sect and has become a part of the sect."

"That's right. The Haoyue Sect has outstanding people, and it's much better than the war-torn Demon Realm."

The man's sharp eyes moved up and down slowly, looking at him, as if trying to pierce him through and see clearly.

"He was able to grow up in Xianmen, and to have such a gentle and beautiful master who takes care of him day and night and teaches him is really a blessing in his life."

Meng Yijue's face was calm, but his clasped hands clenched their fingers for an instant.

The man seemed to have deep meaning in his eyes, and he said leisurely: "With such a talented and beautiful master as his companion, it's no wonder that he's not thinking of going away", staying in the beautiful fairy gate and not wanting to go home."

Meng Yijue stood up suddenly, staring at the man in front of him with extremely cold eyes.

"what are you going to do."

The man rolled his eyes unhurriedly, and said a few words, "I just came to see him."

Meng Yijue sneered. "Oh? Poisoning before we meet, your 'visit' is really unique."

"Mr. Meng." Before Meng Yijue walked away, the man smiled softly, "The devil's life is very long, and you are a passer-by in his long life after all, you can't teach and take care of him for the rest of his life, and accompany him to the end. "

Meng Yijue turned his head suddenly, and saw that the man had restrained his hypocritical politeness, and said in a condescending tone: "You guessed right, the purpose of my coming this time is to test his depth. A dose of water poison is not enough for any experienced water monster in the Demon Realm, but Shui Lingyuan couldn't even hold it with a snap of his fingers, and it took him a quarter of an hour to wake up from a coma."

Yu Shengyan stood up and faced Meng Yijue.

"Meng Yijue, your so-called 'cultivation' is nothing more than serving him delicious food and drink, teaching him some fancy tricks, and bringing him to this ridiculous fairy alliance exam for a little trouble. The friar is a showman. All these years you have nursed him as carefully as a newborn baby.

Shui Lingyuan is already fifteen or sixteen years old, but she still lives in the same room and sleeps with you on the same bed, dreaming and dying in the gentle countryside.However, a demon will eventually grow into a real king by fighting with real swords and blood on the battlefield. "

The man approached step by step, his tone was low, and the words he spit out were aggressive: "Mr. Meng, all you have done is wasting his precious growth period, suppressing his strength, wearing away his animal nature, and making him and the many sects here Like the so-called ascetics, they are satisfied with the little achievements they have made and waste the time of their lives.

Lingyuan has been raised under your hands for five or six years, but she can't even defeat a little Balrog with one move. Such a gentle and slow growth is really unsatisfactory. "

Meng Yijue clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.

"Why, don't you accept it? But the fact is that you are too soft-hearted and reluctant to raise him." Yu Shengyan snorted and laughed, "As a demon, he actually ignored the blood and deep hatred of the whole family and hid in the fairy world. Living in the door...does he still remember that he is a descendant of the water demon clan, the heir of the water demon lord?"

Under Meng Yijue's increasingly gloomy eyes, the man paused, and said in a deep thought: "Now, it's time to stop the loss in time."

Hearing this, Meng Yijue, who had been silent all this time, finally opened his mouth with a cold tone.

"In your opinion, only conquest and killing are the only value of a demon, which means that you and Lingyuan will not go the same way." He looked directly into the man's eyes, "The reason why he chose to stay in the sect, By my side, it's not because he was afraid or escaping, but because he decided to let go of his hatred and stop killing. A person like you... a demon will probably never understand him."

The man was silent, and the way he looked at Meng Yijue changed slightly, with a hint of novelty.

"So...you are very confident to keep him by your side."

"I never thought of forcing him to stay." Meng Yijue said indifferently, "Whether it was signing a non-war agreement with Moyu five years ago or staying in Haoyuezong to practice, this is Shui Lingyuan's own choice. Your own will is imposed on him. And why do you think that what Ling Yuan yearns for is the world you described that is full of endless hatred and fighting; Evil, just to become what you call 'the strongest'."

The man looked at him steadily.The two looked at each other, spiritual energy overflowed from their bodies, and they competed secretly.

After a long time, Yu Shengyan laughed lightly, "Interesting."

Meng Yijue stared at him indifferently.

The man's playful eyes rested on the corners of his eyes, brows, and lips, and he spit out frivolous words: "I thought you just had a good skin, and you were fascinated by that useless little thing. Now it seems that you are a worthy person." 'Insighted' characters."

His tone was frivolous, and when he said the word "deep study", he deliberately emphasized it a bit, and deliberately said it ambiguously.

For his offensive words, Meng Yijue was very disgusted and frowned.

The man straightened his clothes, took a final deep look at Meng Yijue, turned his tall body around, and raised his hand to call for Huiyan who had been waiting for a long time.

"Whether Shui Lingyuan will be firm in his so-called 'choice' when we meet next time, I will wait and see."

After leaving these words, the man strode away.

Watching the two walk away one after the other, Meng Yijue sighed deeply.He struggled to stand up, and the moment he stood up, he felt a surge of energy and blood, his eyes were spinning, and he almost fell back to his seat.

After a while, he overcame the feeling of powerlessness and dizziness, and slowly walked towards Haoyue cultivator, holding his forehead wearily while walking.

He could feel the veins on his forehead throbbing restlessly.

Seeing that Meng Yijue was in a trance, Bai Xiao quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, and asked with concern: "Junior Brother Yijue, you look very bad, did the master of the Poison Smoke Master bother you?"

Meng Yijue thanked him and took the teacup from Bai Xiao.I felt my cold fingers trembling slightly as I held the cup.

After taking a few sips of hot tea, my mood gradually calmed down.He quickly settled down and entered a state of thinking.

This "Yu Shengyan" is just a disguised identity. I am afraid that this person is not a monk of the Mizong Sect at all, but has another background.

In his conversation, he even knew the details of Tuanzi and Meng Yijue sleeping together, and he must have watched them for a long time.This visit was not accidental, but carefully planned

And in this world, there is only one person who pays close attention to Shui Lingyuan's growth and who can know the water demon's physique like the back of his hand.

He can almost conclude that this "Yushengyan" is the father of the original Shui Lingyuan, the Lord Water Demon...

There is no use in panic.Now that the real identity of this person has been confirmed, Meng Yijue knows that he must clarify the purpose of the other party's visit, the timing of his appearance, and how to protect the domain as soon as possible.But the information he knew was too little.

Meng Yijue turned his eyes and looked at the snow-capped mountains on the other side of the ice lake in the distance.

There was a moment of silence.He suddenly thought of the re-examination of the Immortal League to be held in a few days, and a flash of light came to his mind.

He immediately asked Yue Qingzun: "My lord, the re-examination of the Immortal Alliance Examination two days later is to hunt monsters. Do you know where these monsters come from?"

Yue Qingzun pointed to the snow mountain in the distance, and replied leisurely: "There is a deep abyss in the snow mountain of Yan Yunzong, and there is a lot of devil inside. It is said that the lower part of this abyss is connected to the demon realm. The demon realm is cold, and there are underground abysses The magma surges and is relatively warm. Every winter, some monsters always trek along the long underground cracks and arrive at the abyss after the beginning of spring. So, when the abyss comes to spring and summer, there are always different A few monsters crawled out of it."

Daoist Bai Xiao also said mysteriously: "That's right. I also heard that the Yanyun Sect chose this location for the sect. They built layers of magic circles near Diyuan, and circled A large hunting ground, in order to intercept the monsters jumping out of the ground in time, and prevent them from running out and hurting people indiscriminately."

Meng Yijue was stunned.Unexpectedly, there is a mysterious abyss leading to the Demon Realm below the Yanyun Sect. Combined with the intention of that person's coming...he had a bad guess in his heart.

And Master Bai Xiao still said to himself: "The Demon Realm is only a mountain away from the human world, but in fact, there are many secret 'tunnels' in the Demon Realm that can lead to the Central Plains. As far as I know, apart from the Yanyun Sect In addition to the snow-capped mountains and the abyss, there are several areas connected to the demon realm, such as some high mountains and snow fields in the western part of the Central Plains.

Even the Rifting Wind Valley of our Haoyue Sect has something to do with the Demon Realm, a large number of monsters suddenly appeared.The fellow practitioners of the sect worked hard for a month or two before they completely suppressed Yao Luan. "

Meng Yijue nodded, thanking His Holiness for the information.

He drank tea slowly, and a flash of memory suddenly flashed in his mind - when talking to Qing Xi last night, she also unintentionally mentioned the monsters that appeared in Rifting Wind Valley.

Yanyunzong and Haoyuezong appeared at the same time, and Mozun also appeared in Yanyunzong in disguise at this time, all of this is probably not a coincidence.

Although he didn't know whether Mozun came to Yanyunzong just to take the opportunity to see his son, or for another purpose, Meng Yijue was already 12 vigilant in his heart.

He didn't stay long, and quickly returned to the guest house.

After noon, Shui Lingyuan took a short rest, sat up from the couch, and found that the master had returned, and was sitting at the table writing something.

"Master, you went to the Huxin Pavilion today, did you have a good time?"

Ling Yuan didn't care to ask.But after hearing Meng Yijue's muffled hum, the young man immediately sensed the strangeness in his tone, stepped forward, and said softly, "Master, what's the matter?"

Meng Yijue was taking a piece of paper and writing down the information he had collected on it one by one. When he heard Ling Yuan approaching, he felt a little heavier in his heart.

Ling Yuan's father was an extremely dangerous careerist.Ever since he appeared, Meng Yijue knew that his peaceful life with Ling Yuan might really be over.

This man has already expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Ling Yuan's life in the sect, he will definitely not tolerate his son living comfortably in the sect.

The Mozun will take Ling Yuan away.Take it from him.

Thinking of this, Meng Yijue's heart throbbed in pain, as if it was about to shatter.

He and Ling Yuan have gone through many storms together, and have overcome the difficulties of life and death together, but he never thought that one day Ling Yuan might leave him and be stripped from his life alive.

"Master."

Shui Lingyuan caught a glimpse of Master's pale expression, and didn't insist on further questioning, but lightly embraced his shoulder, and rubbed against Master's soft face, "Master, I'm here."

With just one sentence, Meng Yijue's heart surged, his body softened, and he leaned into Ling Yuan's arms, breathing deeply.

The boy was slightly taken aback, but quickly hugged him tightly.

"Lingyuan..." Meng Yijue held his wrist, feeling uncontrollable trembling.

Yes, he was afraid, and he had never felt such profound powerlessness and fear.

He hugged the tall boy tightly and buried his head in his chest.

"do not leave Me……"

"Master, no, I won't leave."

Although Shui Lingyuan was surprised by the sudden strangeness of the master, there was no trace on the surface.

He gently held Meng Yijue's face, and coaxed softly: "Master, don't be afraid, Ling Yuan is always here. Always be with Master, and never leave."

Meng Yijue closed his eyes and hummed softly.The long eyelashes are like fluttering butterfly wings.

Feeling pity in the boy's heart, he looked at the young face in front of him.

It was the first time that his master showed such a depressed and helpless look in front of him, looking at him with watery beautiful eyes, like a homeless kitten, which made people feel distressed.

Shui Lingyuan suddenly thought that he was used to Master's gentleness and tenacity, he was used to shielding himself from the wind and rain, he was used to his meticulous care, but he seldom thought about pampering and protecting their Master like this. It's just a young man in his 20s.

He gave Meng Yijue a pat on the back.The young man sighed secretly as he stroked his shoulders along the master's long hair with his fingers.

Master is really too thin.

In the past, Master worked so hard for their master's sect alone, and suffered a lot.

Although life has improved over the years, the past fatigue and illness still left Master with sequelae.

His soft body is still thin, and his face is still pale occasionally, so weak that the young man can't help but feel distressed.

Ling Yuan put her arms around Master and whispered in his ear.

"Master, don't be afraid..."

I love you.
