Tao Manfeng's face instantly paled, and for a moment, she did not dare to believe her own ears. She was already feeling guilty in the first place, and after hearing his question, she had almost exposed herself. "Master, it's this disciple."
Yu Yan frowned, evidently, he was very dissatisfied with her answer. The cold aura emitted from his entire body, yet, he still asked in a probing manner. "Yu Wang?"
Tao Manfeng blanked. Could it be that this person had another disciple? Hence, she endured her heavy injuries and replied. "Master, this disciple is Yu Yao."
Wrong answer!
The cold aura from Yu Yan's body was no longer suppressed, and began to leak out. Tao Manfeng still wanted to explain a little more, however, she simply felt a pressure that was even stronger than before assaulting her from all directions. Before she could even block it in time, she felt a pain in her Dantian, and her cultivation was greatly scattered. Forget about the cultivation she had cultivated for the past four months, even half of her original cultivation had been destroyed.
Tao Manfeng puked out a mouthful of old blood just like that. She wanted to explain with all her might. How could she lose such a good opportunity just like that? However, Yu Yan completely did not give her the chance to catch her breath. Casting a hand seal with a single hand, a bolt of Nine Heavenly Lightning had already formed behind him.
Tao Manfeng instantly lost all thoughts of explaining. If she was struck by a Nine Heavenly Lightning, would she still be alive? She immediately cast a defensive divine art, and at the same time, she swiftly summoned her sword, preparing to escape.
Unfortunately, no matter how fast she was, she was not faster than that bolt of Heavenly Lightning. The purple-colored lightning bolt struck straight towards her, and with a loud boom, it turned into nothingness along with that escaping figure.
"An illusion? She escaped? " Yu Yan frowned, and then, he no longer bothered about this person who dared to barge into the Lightning Divine Hall, and even impersonated his own disciple. Such a foolish Earth Deity was really rare. She would definitely lead his disciple astray. Mn, she definitely could not be allowed into the mountain.
As for Tao Manfeng, who was mysteriously chased out of the Lightning Divine Hall. She was currently dizzy from the Heavenly Lightning Formation surrounding the Lightning Divine Hall, and was suffering unspeakably. She could not understand why Yu Yan, who was still fine four months ago, would suddenly turn against her? Could she have been discovered? However, she clearly did not do anything at all. Earlier, she was still fine, so why did he suddenly look as though he had woken up? Did he try to kill her?
While she was puzzled, Yu Yan, who was visiting his disciple, was a little dumbfounded as he stared at the empty straw cottage. He released his divine sense and searched the entire mountain, but he couldn't find any trace of his disciple. His originally cold face was now filled with anger. It was even colder now. He seemed to have … lost his disciple again.
— —
In Yu Yan's eyes, there were actually not many people whose faces he could remember. One of them was his master. One was the Sect Master of Ancient Hill Sect, Zi Mo, and the other was his own disciple. As long as he thought of the first two names, the corresponding faces would naturally appear in his mind. Only his troublesome disciple was different. It wasn't that he couldn't remember. Instead, whenever he thought of them, four different faces would appear in his mind.
As for the others … Even when he heard the name, his mind was still a mess. The only difference was whether it was bigger or smaller.
That's right, he was face-blind. For unimportant people. He never wasted time trying to memorize someone's face. As for his stupid disciple, she was the person he spent the most time remembering in his life, but she was also the most troublesome one. They kept changing their appearances. Fortunately, she had her own Divine Sense, with the help of Divine Sense. With the assistance of his divine sense, as long as she stood in front of him, he would immediately remember her appearance.
However, the situation this time was a little different. Yu Yan stood blankly in his disciple's little straw cottage. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember how the disciple he picked up looked like four months ago.
Hence, Tao Manfeng's tragedy was not because her plot was exposed, but because Yu Yan basically did not recognize that the person he sent flying, was the person he picked up four months ago.
Light the candle!

Currently, his real disciple Zhu Yao, due to an unexpected misfortune, was kicked out of the Lightning Divine Hall, and fell into a dense forest. However, because of that, she activated the ability to speak. Towards this scene, Zhu Yao, who had profited from a disaster, only wanted to say one word.
The hell!
Zhu Yao's face landed on the ground, and half of the entire rock had sunk into the soil, revealing only a small portion of green jade.
"Eh, there's a new mushroom?" A curious voice suddenly sounded next to her.
Zhu Yao habitually retorted. "I'm not … a mushroom!"
Such a huge mushroom! Zhu Yao was shocked speechless by the sudden appearance of a mushroom that was as tall as a tree. Why is there such a huge mushroom in this world? This is illogical!
"You can speak?" That mushroom's face was filled with surprise. Like a mushroom monster in a game, it hopped towards her. "Where did you come from, mushroom spirit? Why did you grow in my house? "
"House?" Zhu Yao was startled for a moment. She glanced at the place she was staying at. Other than the soil being a little loose, she really couldn't tell how this place could be considered as a house. Could this soil be the place this mushroom lived in?
"I'm not a mushroom spirit." Zhu Yao felt that she had to explain. "I'm … a rock."
"Oh, you're a rock spirit." The mushroom revealed a look of understanding.
"…" Uh.
"That's true." Before waiting for Zhu Yao to explain, the mushroom had already made his own guess. "Rocks like to stay underground as well. It's no wonder you would fancy my house. The soil there is loose, fragrant, and soft. Anyone would like it."
"Uh …" Zhu Yao's expression darkened. Just how did he realize that she had taken a fancy to this pile of mud? "It's not that I want to forcefully occupy your house, but because I was thrown here by someone and coincidentally fell here, I'm unable to move."
"What? You dare to look down on my house? "The mushroom suddenly flipped out. A good white mushroom instantly turned bright red.
"…" Where did this logic come from? However, she was a rock that couldn't be moved. With a single glance, she could tell that this mushroom had cultivated for many years, and could not be offended. "Great deity, you've misunderstood. I'm not looking down on it, I'm just feeling guilty for occupying great deity's residence."
Only then did the mushroom satisfyingly revert back to white. He sized her up for a moment, and said a little complacently. "How did you know that I have already cultivated into a deity?"
"Great deity's body is filled with divine energy, and you even have such a … majestic figure." Zhu Yao bit the bullet and flattered. "With a single glance, I can tell that you have cultivated for many years."
"That's …" The mushroom was satisfied, and his entire body felt comfortable from her praises. "You sure are a rock spirit with good eyes. I will not fuss over the matter of you growing in my house."
"Thank you, great deity." Even if he fuss over it, she wouldn't be able to come out anyway.
The mushroom hopped over, and in the end, stabbed into the soil next to her, splashing her entire face with mud. "It's been many years since I've spoken to anyone. In this forest, if it's not those ferocious deity beasts, then it's just flowers and plants without any spiritual intelligence. Seeing that you, a rock spirit, can be considered smart. In the future, follow me then. "
Zhu Yao resisted the urge to smear its face with mud as well, took a deep breath, and said. "I wonder how many years great deity has cultivated for?" Both of them had become spirits, so it might know of some cultivation methods. Then, it would be able to cultivate into a human form as soon as possible.
When she mentioned this, the mushroom's expression grew even more spirited. "I have already cultivated for thirty thousand years. I can leave the ground and move freely. How's that? Amazing, right? "
"…" She had clearly cultivated for four months, and she was already able to speak. He needed thirty thousand years to walk!? Where the hell did you get your confidence from? You think you're really amazing? "I wonder what's great deity's cultivation art?"
"Cultivation art?" The mushroom was startled. "What's that?"
Fine. She asked for nothing. She shouldn't have hoped that this mushroom, who could only hop around after cultivating for thirty thousand years, would have any good cultivation art.
"Don't worry, rock spirit. Although your cultivation level isn't as high as mine, I won't despise you. "
I despise you!?
"Things like cultivation. You just have to bask in the moonlight. Although it's impossible for you to catch up to me, it's still possible for you to surpass other mushrooms. "
She didn't want to surpass the mushroom in the slightest. Could it be that his cultivation was all obtained from basking in the moonlight, and he basically didn't cultivate in any sort of cultivation art? Just how in the world did he safely grow to this size?
"Hoho … Thank you, great deity."
"You don't have to call me great deity either. You're being so distant, just call me Mushroom. "
Aunt?
"Hello. I'm Guo 'er. "
"Guo 'er? What a strange name. "
How is it as strange as you!? He really believed it, hey.
"The sky has darkened. The dark clouds are too heavy today, it seems like the moon won't appear. It's very dangerous at night, you know. You should rest early. "The mushroom kindly suggested, and glanced at her." Why don't I cover you with some more mud? " After saying that, he leaped, splashing up the surrounding mud. Zhu Yao watched as a thick layer of mud came smashing towards her, covering her tightly. "Mn, it's safe now."
Zhu Yao: "…"
Safe my ass. She couldn't even see it anymore, alright?
Zhu Yao felt like crying. Just as she was about to express a few words of protest, that mushroom tilted its head, and even its mushroom umbrella was retracted halfway. Snoring sounds could be heard. It fell asleep a little too quickly, wasn't it!? Zhu Yao was a little helpless. There was indeed no moon today, so she could only sleep. Taking a deep breath, just as she was about to sink into the land of dreams, she heard the murmurs from the mushroom.
"Don't get eaten tomorrow, don't get eaten tomorrow, don't get eaten tomorrow …"
Zhu Yao instantly felt that her future was bleak.
— — — —
Although this mushroom was a little unreliable, it still treated Zhu Yao rather well. In the day, it would bring her around to gather dew, and at night, it would bury her back into the hole. Only on the night when the moon appeared, it would dig her out to bask in the moonlight. Probably because it really hadn't seen anyone it could talk to for a long time, when it caught this stone that could talk, it felt like it had found a treasure. It would never forget to bring it along with it, and it was so talkative that people could not help but want to beat it up.
Although it could move, in the end, it was still a mushroom that had yet to cultivate a body. When it wanted to walk, it could only hop around. Yet, its figure was simply too big, and with a single hop, it would smash a hole on the ground. Not to mention, it didn't have hands. Hence, it thought of a way to place it on its head.
However, its mushroom head was round. Hence, every time it hopped, it would fall off its head with a plop. It had no choice but to come back to pick it up, and continue to hop forward. She would then slide off with a plop.
Repeating this over and over again, Zhu Yao felt that it wouldn't be long before her version 6.0 would be online.
Just like that, the mushroom picked it up and hopped around. A few days had passed, and it had really found a sense of balance. Zhu Yao had never slid off its head again.
Her cultivation still did not have much progress, and her absorption of moonlight was still too slow. After ten whole days, she had yet to recover even a tenth of the energy she had in the past four months.
Zhu Yao's path of cultivation was far and distant, and this time, when she accompanied the mushroom to gather dew, she even met a familiar person – the little bitch who was pretending to be her. (To be continued)
