"Lingxi … Young Master Yun, you have to hold on tight … I think things aren't looking good … This Lady Shangguan is a great threat to you, a formidable foe …"
Yue Rulan whispered into Ji Lingxi's ear, wrapped in the blanket.
"How can I hold on tight to such a thing?" Ji Lingxi was annoyed at the mention of it. "That Yun Yang is a block of wood … He doesn't know how to flirt at all. He doesn't know … he doesn't understand … no …"
"Also, we have to look for Supreme Cloud quickly … to find out about your brother's whereabouts …" Yue Rulan's eyes glinted with hope. "Maybe … your brother isn't dead yet … He's one of the Nine Supremes, how could he die so easily?"
"Yes, yes!" Ji Lingxi nodded vigorously.
"If we can find him this time …" Yue Rulan bit her lip and said, "I – I won't go anywhere. I'll stay by his side. There's no need for any ceremony, wedding, anything … I won't think about family, anything … I'll just keep him company until the end."
"He wants to be one of the Nine Supremes, he wants to contribute to the country, I'll be by his side. When he's tired, I'll roam the world with him, roam the sea of consciousness … When he wants to settle down … I'll find a quiet place to live in seclusion with him, the man farming and the woman weaving …"
Yue Rulan's eyes were filled with longing.
Ji Lingxi felt a pang in her heart as she hugged Yue Rulan and said sincerely, "Brother will definitely be fine. He has such a good sister-in-law waiting for him, how can anything happen to him? He'll definitely reunite with us … With you waiting for him, he won't dare to let anything happen to him!"
"Yes, he'll definitely reunite with us …" Yue Rulan's voice sounded like a prayer, like an affirmation, but there was also an endless sense of melancholy …
…
Early in the morning, Yun Yang rode on Reddie, leading the way in the front.
It felt more like he was running away, as if he wanted to get away from the group as soon as possible.
It was a pity that he was caught by the latecomers before he could run more than ten miles.
Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan stood in front of the horses with frosty expressions.
"What a coincidence." Yun Yang chuckled dryly and said, "To be able to meet two beautiful ladies on such a chaotic journey, it is truly a blessing from the heavens …"
Yue Rulan's expression was icy. "You're lying through your teeth. Weren't you the one who caused this bluish-black stain on our faces that can't be washed off? May I ask where did Young Master Yun's beauty come from? How can this be considered as God's blessing?! "
Yun Yang chuckled and said, "Both of you ladies are beautiful, like deities. You're only slightly blemished, what's there to speak of? Besides, even if we don't look at their faces and only look at their silhouettes, their unparalleled elegance and beauty … how can a mere disguise hide them?"
What else do you have to say to flatter us? Go ahead and say it all at once. Don't stop. It's a long journey anyway – there's still tens of thousands of miles to go until we reach Tiantang City. We'll be in a good mood listening to your flattery along the way. We'll ask you again when we're tired of it. Work hard! "
Yun Yang shut his mouth, resentfully.
I'm flattering you all and I still have to be interrogated by you all. Work hard? What do I have to work hard for? Interrogate me directly!
I don't know anything anyway. I don't know anything at all!
"First of all, the thing on your face … it doesn't really matter, we're too lazy to ask you. It'll fall off on its own after a while anyway. There's no need to waste our interrogation time … "
Yue Rulan's gaze was like a cold lake in autumn as she stared at Yun Yang's face, scrutinizing his features.
Yun Yang coughed and turned away instinctively, not daring to meet a certain someone's aggressive gaze.
"Turn around and look into my eyes. Don't avoid me!" said Yue Rulan.
Yun Yang coughed and rubbed his nose, saying, "Sister Lan … you … we're looking at each other. I'm embarrassed …"
Yue Rulan was amused and annoyed at the same time. She said loudly, "Even I'm embarrassed. What are you embarrassed about? Turn around quickly and look at me!"
Yun Yang spread his arms and said directly, "What do you all want to know? Just ask directly! If there's anything I can say, I'll definitely say it! "
Yue Rulan said, "Alright, where is Ji Lingfeng now?"
Yun Yang was stunned. "What?"
Yue Rulan said angrily, "Why are you pretending to be confused? Tell me where Ji Lingfeng is! "
"Sister Yue, you're making things difficult for me. How would I know where Ji Lingfeng is? This is the first time I've heard of this name … If I were in Tiantang City now, I would at least have some influence and could look for help. I could spread out my men to search for him, but this journey back home is filled with strangers and strangers. What do you want me to say? How would I be able to find this person? How would I know where he is?"
As he said the last sentence, Yun Yang felt an inexplicable twinge in his heart. "Yes, I really want to know where eighth brother is now. I really don't know where he is. I really want to know where my brothers are!"
Yue Rulan snorted angrily. "You're playing a rogue with me? You won't give up until you see your coffin, will you? "
Yun Yang acted like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, putting on a sincere expression as he said, as if he was bowing from the bottom of his heart, "Sister Lan … I really … really … really … don't know …"
Ji Lingxi said from the side, "Why are your eyeballs rolling around when you don't know? Not only does Sister Yue not believe you now, even I don't believe you anymore. "
Yun Yang was taken aback. "Huh? My eyeballs rolling around? "
"They obviously did just now," answered Ji Lingxi.
Yun Yang stared at Ji Lingxi with widened eyes. "Are they still rolling now?"
"Not now. Why are you staring so wide? Are you trying to show off your big eyes?" asked Ji Lingxi.
Yun Yang asked, "What about now? You saw my eyeballs rolling around just now. How did they roll? "
Ji Lingxi answered, "Something like this …"
As she spoke, she tried to demonstrate but she suddenly realized something and flew into a rage. "Pfft! I'm trying to smooth things over for you, but you're using me as a distraction instead! Stop changing the topic! Hurry up and answer the question honestly. "
Yun Yang said confidently, "But my eyeballs didn't roll. They definitely didn't!"
"They did!" Ji Lingxi said angrily.
"They didn't!"
"They did! They just rolled around! "
"If I say they didn't, then they didn't!"
"If I say they did, then they did. Your eyeballs must have rolled at least seven to eight times just now!"
"Words alone are no proof. Show me the evidence!"
Ji Lingxi was stunned.
Yun Yang continued to argue, "Do you think I don't know what's going on with my eyeballs? On what basis do you say that my eyeballs rolled around? Show me the evidence! People who speak irresponsibly and scoundrelly also need evidence! "
Ji Lingxi almost fainted, her lips quivering as she said, "Your eyeballs … your eyeballs … they were clearly moving … they were just … just like that …"
Yue Rulan rolled her eyes at the sky.
Sister, we're forcing him to answer questions … Alright!
Why did your brain follow his train of thought with just one sentence from him? Why are you so calculative about whether your eyeballs rolled around or not?
Is this the time to be calculative about that?
"Let's just say that you didn't, alright? Sister Ling saw wrongly just now, alright? Answer my question quickly! "Yue Rulan tried to smooth things over quickly.
However, a glance at Ji Lingxi's trembling body rendered her speechless.
"That won't do! What do you mean by 'let's just say it'? What do you mean by 'alright'? "Yun Yang was relentless." You're accusing me so wrongly! You want to settle things with just one sentence? There's no such thing in this world. I didn't even roll my eyes just now! "
Yue Rulan was speechless.
You were behaving like that just now. We're already like this, and now you're behaving like this. What do you want?
You're f * cking relentless!
Do you want to go to heaven?
"I'm being serious. I'm asking you, Ji Lingfeng …"
"I'm being serious. My eyeballs didn't roll around! I'm not lying! I'm telling the truth! "
"I'm asking you …"
"I didn't roll around! I'm an honest man. You're all scoundrels, honest men … "
"Beat him up!"
Ji Lingxi could not take it anymore. She pounced forward, punching and kicking as she threw everything she had at Yun Yang.
Yue Rulan's pretty face was flushed with anger as she charged forward as well. She understood now that she would not be able to get anything out of Yun Yang if she continued to argue with him. It was better to just fight.
However, with Yun Yang's current cultivation base, it was a piece of cake for him to deal with the two girls. He did not even need to fight. His protective mystical Qi alone was enough to send the girls staggering.
Clang!
Yue Rulan held her sword in her hand, gleaming with a chilling light.
"Use weapons. Both of you can't beat me even with weapons." Yun Yang was smug, but his expression suddenly changed as he said in terror, "You – you – you – what are you doing? Don't be rash!"
It was Yue Rulan who held her sword horizontally. She did not attack Yun Yang but placed it against her own neck.
Her eyes were filled with determination as she looked at Yun Yang. "I know we're not enough for you to fight, but if you try to dodge or retaliate, I'll cut my own throat on the spot. Do you think I wouldn't dare?"
Yun Yang was speechless.
