"When this person first came to the manor, no one in the clan knew him, so this lowly one deliberately made friends with him. After a few times, we did have some friendship. One time, when we were drunk, we happened to talk about Manor Lord. I didn't expect this person to actually show some hatred towards Manor Lord!"
In the Zhao You side hall, Xiao Yi explained the situation one by one.
When Zhang Yan heard this, he smiled and said, "It's nothing new that your Xiao clansman hates me."
Not to mention that the whereabouts of Xiao Mu and Xiao Han were rumored to be unknown because of him, just the profound level weapon, the Five Spirits White Carp Shuttle, was also obtained by him through trickery. Why would the Xiao clan give him any face?
Xiao Yi hurriedly explained, "It's not like that. He also said that in a few days, someone will come to deal with Manor Lord. However, this person is quite tight-lipped. This lowly one probed a few more times but was unable to get any more information. Remembering that Manor Lord's kindness to this lowly one is as heavy as a mountain, this lowly one specially came to report."
"Oh?"
Zhang Yan's gaze turned and swept over his face, saying, "At least you have the heart."
Xiao Yi didn't dare to meet his gaze and hurriedly lowered his head, saying, "I don't dare, I don't dare. If it wasn't for Manor Lord's support, this lowly one wouldn't be who I am today."
Zhang Yan smiled lightly and waved his sleeves, saying, "I already know. You should go back early to avoid suspicion in the clan."
Xiao Yi stood up and bowed, not daring to say anything more, hurriedly taking his leave.
After he left, the mirror spirit came up and said, "Master, although this person made an oath that day, he must be unwilling. Would he really be so kind?"
Zhang Yan sneered, "Of course he wouldn't be so kind. But how could I not see through this little trick? The reason why he came here is because he was afraid that I would make trouble for him in the future after suffering a loss. But just this, he wouldn't be so anxious to find me. I'm guessing that Xiao Ao must have forced him to his current position in the clan, so he urgently came to find me. It would be best if he could use me to teach this person a lesson. Then he can rest in peace. "
He explained the pros and cons in one sentence, and the mirror spirit suddenly understood. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. He couldn't help but say with admiration, "Master's eyes are indeed like a torch. You can see through me with one glance."
However, a moment later, he said worriedly, "According to what this person said, I'm afraid that someone will come to make things difficult for Master. I wonder who it is?"
Zhang Yan stood up, flicked his sleeves and said with a smile, "Knowing or not, it's all the same. Why bother to think about it? You just need to guard the cave carefully. "
The mirror spirit quickly responded.
After Zhang Yan explained, he did not go to the main hall for the banquet. He returned to the small pot mirror and deduced the Wood Element True Light again.
Three months later, 500 kilometers away from Bright Nether Lake, a sword light that seemed like a clear and cold moon tore through the sky. It was coming here.
Liu Yanyi rode her sword and flew into the sky. It had been almost twenty years since they parted. She had gone through a lot of hardships and had already found all kinds of external medicines to transform pills.
She was wearing a bamboo colored skirt. Her black hair was like a waterfall, draping over her shoulders and tied with a silver ring. Her expression was more elegant and refined than that day when she left the mansion.
While flying, she suddenly felt a sense of danger and frowned slightly. She hurriedly turned the sword light and dodged to the side. She saw a smoke passing in front of her, causing her clothes to flutter.
The person who sneaked up on her didn't say anything when he saw that his attack didn't hit. Instead, he controlled a big cloud to cover her. Before it landed, Liu Yanyi felt her whole body tighten. It was as if she fell into an ice cocoon. The surrounding cold wind was rustling like an ice cyclone.
At a glance, she saw that this cloud spread for more than ten miles. It was not a place where she could escape in a hurry.
She immediately guessed that the other party came prepared, so it was not suitable for her to fly by force. Instead, she took out the profound artifact 'Boat Mooring Pouch' that Zhang Yan had given her. She opened it and turned it into a crystal cloud, barely blocking it. She said quietly, "Which Fellow Daoist is making things difficult for my daughter here?"
That cloud suddenly parted and a middle-aged Daoist nun flashed out from within. She looked at Liu Yanyi twice and said expressionlessly, "Liu Yanyi, I have been waiting for you here for many days. Come with me now."
Liu Yanyi saw that the other party was wearing the Qincang School uniform and seemed to be a Core Formation cultivator, so she didn't be rude. She curtsied and said, "May I know which senior from the sect is here and where are you taking Yanyi?"
The middle-aged Daoist nun said indifferently, "I, Yue Longshan, can be considered as your senior. I heard that you are an outstanding figure among the younger generation of disciples in my sect, so I would like to invite you to stay in my Glittering Jewel Cave for a few days. Quickly put away your transcendent artifact and come with me. That way, you can suffer less."
When Liu Yanyi heard the words' Glittering Jewel Cave ', she immediately became alert. She held the sword pellet and said, "Senior, please allow me to report. I have been traveling outside for several years and haven't seen my master for a long time. I am about to return to my residence to pay my respects. After the ceremony, if my master allows it, I am willing to pay a visit to your residence."
Yue Longshan waved her hand and said with an extremely unyielding attitude, "There is no need. The relationship between our sect is not shallow. Why should we disturb the seniors for such a small matter?"
Liu Yanyi said seriously, "Forgive me for not being able to comply."
Yue Longshan became impatient and said, "That is not up to you to decide!"
She took out a hand seal, and countless grains of white sand appeared in the air. They covered the sky and the sun as they swept over from all directions. They became smaller and smaller, and they were about to surround her.
Liu Yanyi quickly used the Boat Mooring Pouch and released balls of crystal clouds to protect herself.
Yue Longshan snickered coldly and continued to circulate her arcane energy above the clouds. Instantly, a boundless pressure came crashing down.
Liu Yanyi was only at the Mystic Light Realm. Although the Boat Mooring Pouch was a Xuan Artifact, her cultivation was one realm lower. She could only last for a while before finding it hard to resist.
However, she was still calm and didn't panic. She held down the sword pellet and looked for a chance to break out.
Yue Longshan smiled in disdain. "I advise you not to struggle. I know that your sword movement technique is amazing and you will be able to escape as soon as you have the chance, but you won't be able to escape from my Neon Dust Barrier. It is better to be obedient."
As soon as she finished speaking, a chuckle sounded next to her ear. "That may not be the case!"
Yue Longshan knew that the situation was bad, but before she could do anything, a jade arrow shot out from the air. It pierced through the clouds and created a hole.
Although the hole closed as soon as it was created, the opportunity was gone in the blink of an eye. However, Liu Yanyi grasped the opportunity and flew away with her sword in the blink of an eye.
A ray of light flew out from within, and in a flash, it was already ten thousand feet away. In another flash, it disappeared without a trace.
Yue Longshan's expression changed, and she shouted, "Who is causing trouble here? This is the matter of the Qincang School, why do you have the right to interfere? "
A woman wearing colorful clothes and riding a five-colored cloud walked out from the mist. Her hair was combed into a bun, and she had a pretty face. She blinked her eyes and pretended to be surprised. "I was ordered by my master to protect Fellow Daoist Liu in secret, and I saw someone bullying the weak. I thought it was a demon, but it turns out to be Senior Qincang?"
Yue Longshan's face burned. Ever since she came out of seclusion, she was ignored by Immortal Qin, so she couldn't help but feel depressed.
Later, she heard that her master didn't get along with Zhang Yan, so she was eager to regain her master's favor. Someone from the same sect came up with an idea, saying that as long as his eldest disciple, Liu Yanyi, was traveling outside, as long as they found the right time to "invite" her to live in the Qincang School, they would definitely be able to threaten her and win her master's favor.
She thought that this idea was not bad. However, as a Core Formation cultivator, he felt that he had no face to make things difficult for a junior for no reason. Now that he was being mocked by this woman, he became angry out of humiliation and shouted, "Do you think you can stop me?"
She flicked her sleeve. She tossed a jade cup in the air and flipped it upside down. The mouth of the cup seemed to be spitting out light, and it actually contained a strange cold power. Before it arrived, it was as if ice water had soaked one's body, and the coldness penetrated one's bones and muscles.
The colorful-robed woman cried out in surprise and pointed at her bun. A hairpin suddenly flew forward, and with a "ding" sound, the jade cup was shaken to the side a few times.
Seeing this, Yue Longshan hurriedly used an incantation to straighten it. This jade cup was very special, and it could only be controlled by pointing the mouth of the cup at the opponent.
However, as soon as she turned it around, the hairpin flew over again and pecked at it, knocking it to the side. This made her feel uncomfortable.
How could Yue Longshan be willing to be entangled with unrelated people here? Originally, she wanted to quickly deal with this woman and then chase after Liu Yanyi. Perhaps she would still have a chance, but the more impatient she was, the more she couldn't get rid of her.
The colorful-robed woman saw that she was impatient, so she smiled in her heart. Her figure drifted back and forth, but she only entangled Yue Longshan. Every time a killing move came, she would dodge far away, and when she wanted to leave, she would go forward to stop her.
After exchanging blows for a moment, Yue Longshan knew that she could no longer catch up to Liu Yanyi, so she gave up and focused on fighting this woman.
After all, she was under Daoist Master Dongtian, so she was experienced and knowledgeable. After exchanging blows for a while, she saw through this woman's background. She sneered and said, "I was wondering who was so daring to go against my Qincang School. So it's a disciple of Li Mountain Sect."
Li Mountain Sect was also one of the ten sects of Xuanmen, but compared to the other sects, their foundation was the shallowest, and they had only risen for a few thousand years.
However, compared to the other nine sects, they still had some advantages. The founding ancestor of the sect was still in the mountain.
Almost with her strength alone, this sect Just Now had a foothold in the world.
The colorful-robed woman's background was exposed, but she didn't panic at all. She only said, "Eh, could this Dao friend be one of the top ten disciples of Qincang School? Or is it because you're an elder in the sect? Why do you keep using the status of Qincang School to pressure people? Are you bullying me because I'm not sensible? "
Yue Longshan was mocked by her words and felt even more embarrassed. She shouted and said, "Good, good. So the disciples of Li Mountain Sect are all so eloquent. You blocked my way for no reason. Today, I'll capture you and let someone from your sect come to my residence to take you away."
She stretched her hand into the sachet, and just as she was about to move, she felt a burst of cold air assaulting her. She was startled and hastily tilted her head to the side. A cold sword qi brushed past her forehead. Although she wasn't injured, her hair was disheveled, and she was in a sorry state.
She couldn't help feeling shocked and angry at the same time. She looked up into the clouds and saw Liu Yanyi's sleeves fluttering in the wind. She was standing there with twelve sword lights intertwining and circling around her. She was looking at her calmly.
Yue Longshan didn't expect Liu Yanyi to not leave Just Now. She actually dared to hide in the clouds and wait for a chance to kill her.
Her hair was messed up by a junior. Even if she captured Liu Yanyi and brought her back, she wouldn't be able to face anyone. After being stunned for a moment, she sighed and covered her face with her sleeves. She flew away on the clouds.
The colorful-robed woman saw that she had left and came up on the clouds. She said in surprise, "Dao friend Liu, why haven't you left?"
Liu Yanyi bowed to her solemnly and said, "Dao friend helped me escape. How can I leave without you?"
