Early the next morning, the two of them bid farewell to the Xu family and left Dingcheng for the seaside pier.After paying the ferry fee, he waited at the pier with other people who were going to sea.

There are sea monsters in the sea, hidden in the deep sea, and the big sects stationed on the seaside in various continents have reached coexistence agreements with these sea monsters. Ordinary people, whether they go fishing, do business, or travel between continents, have to ask these sea monsters. It has been a rule for millions of years for Zongmen to pay overseas funds.

A high-ranking monk like Xu Youming also had to abide by the rules.

When queuing up to board the boat, both of them put on their veiled caps, and Xu Youming, as always, suppressed the power around him, so as not to be surrounded by people everywhere.

Le Wuyan asked him in a low voice: "How long does it take to get to Xiaoyao Mountain from here?"

Xu Youming said: "There is no direct ferry. It will take two days to go to the largest island between the Eastern Continent and the Southern Land, and then go there on your own."

The corner of Le Wuyan's mouth twitched slightly. In the past, his parents had a good relationship with the sea monsters near Xiaoyao Mountain. They have always come and gone freely in this sea area, so there is no such trouble.

He asked again: "Actually, if you just fly over like this, those sea monsters can't do anything to you, right?"

"Well," Xu Youming said, "but there's no need to make trouble."

Come on, Le Wuyan also calm down.

Just take the boat.

After boarding the ship, the two of them asked for an upper room, which was on the third floor of the spirit ship, where the view was wide.

Today the sky is clear and there is only a breeze on the sea. You can see the blue sky, blue sea and sparkling water. The scenery is very good.

Le Wuyan's mood suddenly improved, and he lay down by the window to watch the scenery, squinting his eyes and feeling comfortable.

Xu Youming meditated quietly behind him.

Raising his eyes by chance, all within sight are Le Wuyan's relaxed and happy back.

The soft color sinks into his eyes and hides in his eyes.

After sailing for two days and two nights, the boat arrived at Yinyue Island, the largest island in the South China Sea that Xu Youming mentioned.

The island is surrounded by silver sandy beaches, and the island is crescent-shaped, hence the name.

The island here is rich in products, bustling and prosperous, and it is an island without an owner. Many monks and even ordinary people come here to do business, and most people who travel to and from the eastern and southern continents pass by here to rest.

When the two of them landed, someone came to greet them. They were monks from the Supreme Immortal Alliance in black clothes and black robes.

"The lord is at the Yinyue Building in front, please Xianzun Mingzhi and his wife go and have a talk."

The other party's attitude was considered respectful, but Le Wuyan didn't take it seriously, Xie Shigu, who knows what An was thinking.

I wanted to refuse, but the words turned around and changed: "Then go."

Xu Youming looked over, and Le Wuyan said, "I'm afraid he won't succeed, so I'll just see what he wants to do."

Not far from Yinyue Tower, it is the largest restaurant on Yinyue Island. It is located in the bustling downtown street and built by the water.

As soon as the two of them arrived, Xie Shigu's laughing voice came from the window-side room on the second floor: "Immortal Master Mingzhi and his wife came so slowly."

Looking up, Xie Shigu was leaning against the railing by the window, holding a wine glass in his hand, and greeted them with a flirtatious look.

Le Wuyan secretly cursed "showing off", rolled his eyes, and followed Xu Youming upstairs.

There are many followers of the Supreme Immortal League, all guarding outside the wing room, there are only two people in the room, besides Xie Shigu, there is also a young man who sits silently at the table and eats quietly, it is Xie Shigu's That mortal couple.

Le Wuyan and Xu Youming entered the door, Xie Shigu stretched out his hand and motioned them to sit with a smile.

"Xianzun and his wife are really noble and busy, so they have to wait." Xie Shigu complained, and picked up the jug to pour wine for the two of them.

Le Wuyan's eyes fell on the people around him, Xie Shigu smiled, and introduced them casually: "This is my Taoist companion, his name is..."

"Qi Sifan." The young man said coldly, his indifferent face didn't change much, and he didn't even look at any of them, just insisted on repeating, "My name is Qi Sifan."

Xie Shigu was still smiling, but the smile didn't seem to enter his eyes, and he didn't interrupt him after all.

Le Wuyan took another look at that person, feeling that the name "Qi Sifan" was vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before, so he didn't take it to heart.

Xie Shigu toasted, but the two of them didn't move, Xie Shigu bent his lips: "Isn't the Immortal and Madam so unwilling to show you? Why don't you even drink a glass of wine with me?"

Le Wuyan sneered: "Who knows if there is anything bad in your wine."

Xie Shigu: "What madam said, am I that kind of person?"

Le Wuyan said contemptuously: "Is it clear in your heart, why bother to ask?"

Xie Shigu didn't take it seriously when he was ridiculed, Le Wuyan and the others refused to touch his food and drink, so he poured his own drink and was just as happy.

By the way, I have nothing to say: "Why are you two alone, why don't Xianzun and his wife bring Xiao Mudan out this time?"

Le Wuyan reminded him coldly: "Will Little Peony come to do your business? Your Taoist partner is by your side, don't worry about other people."

Xie Shigu's side Taoist couple didn't respond at all, as if they didn't care what they said at all.

Xie Shigu narrowed his eyes slightly, and he also reflected on why he thought of that peony flower for no reason, and his eyes darkened.

He curled his lips and changed the topic: "Did you two come across any strange things along the way?"

Xu Youming remained silent, but Le Wuyan asked him back, "Where's the leader?"

Xie Shigu said: "It's not too unusual, but the evil demon cultivators appear frequently, more than last year before we entered the Beiyuan secret realm, which caused much turmoil and panic in the world, but I don't know what these evil demon cultivators want to do. What."

These are self-explanatory, they have also encountered several times.

Le Wuyan sneered: "Is the lord so useless? Just a few evil cultivators can make you troubled to this point?"

Xie Shigu didn't care and said: "No matter how powerful the evil demon Xiu is, he can't trouble me. Why should I be troubled? Speaking of which, Madam should be more troubled than me. After all, the rumor that Madam is the reincarnation of the devil is spreading more and more nowadays. It's getting more mysterious."

There is no need for this guy to say this, Le Wuyan has heard the same words countless times this way.

He was originally the reincarnation of the devil, but he just wouldn't recognize it.

"He is not."

Xu Youming, who had been silent since entering the door, said suddenly.

Le Wuyan silently closed his mouth.

Xie Shigu laughed with a "puchi", as if he had heard some extremely funny joke: "If you say it's not, then it's not."

Xu Youming stared at him intently, with a hint of warning in his eyes, and repeated again: "He's not."

Xie Shigu smiled and said, "Immortal Master Mingzhi doesn't need to tell me, the person you want to persuade is not me."

Then he blinked at Le Wuyan again: "Madam Xianzun, is your husband always talking without beginning or end, refusing to say anything when asked, and always angry with you?"

Le Wuyan was annoyed: "What does it have to do with you?"

Xu Youming's virtue is indeed irritating, but in front of outsiders, Le Wuyan doesn't want people to see a joke, especially Xie Shigu.

Xie Shigu bent his lips: "It's nothing, if Mrs. Xianzun is curious, you may as well ask me, I know a lot."

Le Wuyan looked at him coldly: "You know?"

Xie Shigu: "Ah, I don't say I know everything, but I definitely know more than you."

Hearing this, Le Wuyan did have a moment of emotion, he stared at the man's cynical smiling face, as if evaluating the credibility of his words.

But soon he calmed down, some of the words of this person may be true, and his cultivation level is too high, so he might be betrayed if he believed what he said.

"Enough," Xu Youming spoke first, and warned Xie Shigu who was sitting across from him again, "I have weaknesses, and you have them too, so don't keep provoking me."

Le Wuyan was startled, as if he didn't expect Xu Youming to say such a thing in front of Xie Shigu.

Xie Shigu gave a "tsk", and finally restrained his attitude, as if Xu Youming had hit the mark.The Taoist companion beside him has always looked indifferent, and doesn't care about the undercurrent between them.

Le Wuyan was impatient, and asked Xie Shigu bluntly: "So why does the leader insist on going to Xiaoyao Mountain?"

He didn't believe that it was because of the frequent occurrence of evil spirits, so he went to Xiaoyao Mountain to find out. Xie Shigu, this person, clearly had other purposes.

"I'm curious," Xie Shigu said with a smile, "I'm curious about what Xiaoyao Mountain has become after all these years. If my wife is not curious, why would she agree to go with her?"

Le Wuyan was unhappy, Xiaoyao Mountain was his lair, and he had something to do with this guy.

His tone was not polite: "If the lord is curious, just go directly, why not invite the immortal to join him, why, there is no immortal, can you go to Xiaoyao Mountain by yourself?"

"Ah," Xie Shigu readily admitted, "I can't get in."

Le Wuyan raised his eyebrows, and Xie Shigu continued: "Your husband didn't tell you? Xiaoyao Mountain's restriction can only be opened with my cooperation with him, otherwise even a fly will not be able to fly in."

Le Wuyan heard the words and subconsciously turned to look at the people around him. Xu Youming didn't say anything, as if he had acquiesced, and then motioned to Le Wuyan: "Let's go."

Le Wuyan didn't intend to stay any longer, and listened to the nonsense of the person in front of him.

The two of them got up and wanted to leave, Xie Shigu didn't stop him, he just said: "We are leaving at Yinshi tomorrow morning, see you at the west pier."

Xu Youming was noncommittal, and left with Le Wuyan.

After coming out of the restaurant, Le Wuyan asked: "The restriction on Xiaoyao Mountain was jointly set up by you and Xie Shigu? Why?"

Xu Youming glanced at him, and said indifferently: "Xiaoyao Mountain is full of demonic energy, and a restriction has been set up to prevent any more demon cultivators and Taoist people with evil intentions from going up the mountain. The restriction was jointly set by me and him, and it is for mutual checks and balances." , this matter is jointly agreed upon by a hundred schools of Taoism."

Le Wuyan was even more unhappy when he heard it, it was clearly his territory, would it be the turn of these Taoist monks to point fingers?

"So you haven't been to Xiaoyao Mountain in all these years?" He asked.

Xu Youming said: "No."

Le Wuyan: "Then why did you agree to go with that guy this time?"

Xu Youming: "If you want to go, then go."

Le Wuyan has nothing to say, so he has to thank this thief when he returns to his lair?Ah.

Xu Youming also didn't want to continue this topic: "Go forward."

The whole day after that, they wandered around the market on Yinyue Island, and in the evening they found an inn to rest and rested for the night.

At three o'clock in the next day, when the two of them arrived at the pier on the west side of the island, Xie Shigu was already waiting here. He was the only one, and the other was never brought with him.

Le Wuyan was a little surprised, thinking to himself that this person is so courageous, daring to go up Xiaoyao Mountain with them alone?

"The leader is not afraid of two-on-one, and is at a disadvantage?"

Xie Shigu waved his fan nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Can't you run if you can't beat me?"

Le Wuyan: "..."

It's also really thick-skinned.

Xu Youming had already released the spirit boat in the water, leading Le Wuyan onto the boat.

No one paid any attention to Xie Shigu, so he followed up by himself.

The spirit ship lifted anchor, Xu Youming signaled to Le Wuyan: "It's windy outside, go to the cabin first."

Entering the cabin, Le Wuyan sat casually, Xu Youming went to the table and poured him a cup of hot water, Le Wuyan held the cup in both hands, squinting at Xie Shigu who followed.

Xie Shigu didn't feel that he hated him at all, so he sat down and poured a glass of water by himself: "This boat is small, and there is only one cabin, Mrs. Xianzun can't let me blow the cold wind outside alone."

Le Wuyan didn't bother to talk to him.

Xu Youming stretched out his hand, and lightly plucked the red branch in Le Wuyan's bun that was a little crooked by the wind, Le Wuyan looked up at him.Xu Youming's fingers brushed against his temples, paused for a moment, and retracted again.

Le Wuyan gave a half-smile and hummed lightly.

The two of them acted as if no one was around, and Xie Shigu, who had been completely ignored, suddenly broke in: "Immortal Mingzhi and his wife are like this, it's really enviable."

Le Wuyan glanced at him, but saw that this guy's tone was rare and serious, as if he was feeling emotional, and he seemed a little lonely in his expression.

... Strange.

Xu Youming frowned slightly when he heard the words, raised his hand, and set up an enchantment around himself and Le Wuyan, blocking Xie Shigu's sight outside.

Le Wuyan asked him: "What are you doing?"

Xu Youming said: "He has malicious intentions, be more careful."

Le Wuyan: "You don't need to tell me."

Afterwards, Xu Youming's spirit boat traveled fast, and at dawn, the shadow of Xiaoyao Mountain could be seen faintly. From a distance, the fairy mountain stood tall among the sea of ​​clouds, filled with mist and mist, as if it were an illusion or reality.

Le Wuyan stood by the window, watching calmly, his turmoil was finally suppressed by him, and he took a deep breath.

His shoulders sank slightly, and he turned his head. It was Xu Youming, who put his hand on his shoulder, and was looking at him with deep eyes.

Le Wuyan smiled uncomfortably.

Xu Youming didn't say anything, just reminded him: "You wait on the boat."

Xie Shigu over there was already urging them: "Stop dawdling."

Le Wuyan stepped back, Xu Youming and Xie Shigu flew out of the cabin at the same time, and headed for the thickest cloud and fog ahead.

Not long after, countless alternating golden and black auras were released, covering the mountains, rivers and seas of clouds. Le Wuyan clearly felt that the spirit boat under him was bumping up and down. The waves were higher than the waves, and there was a land ahead. There was a sound of shaking the mountain, and within half a quarter of an hour, the vague and vague Xiaoyao Mountain hidden behind the clouds and mists gradually revealed the whole picture.

Le Wuyan was in a complicated mood, but he had no time to think about it. Xu Youming had already returned to the cabin, grabbed his waist and led him to fly up again.

After a few breaths, the three of them landed on the island under Xiaoyao Mountain together.

The ban is on.

Neither Xu Youming nor Le Wuyan made a sound.

Xie Shigu put away the fan in his hand and said first, "Let's go up the mountain."
