Usually, Li Xiaoman was elegant and beautiful. She was always calm and collected, but at this moment, she showed a shocked expression, which made the young men and women beside her curious. One of them couldn't help but ask again, "Junior Sister, do you know this little beggar?"
Li Xiaoman quickly regained her composure and nodded, "I do."
"Sister Li, how do you know him?" One of the girls was puzzled. Ye Fan's clothes were ragged and his body was haggard. No matter how you looked at him, he was at the bottom of society. He was from a completely different world from them.
"I came from the same place as him. We used to be … neighbors." Li Xiaoman looked indifferent.
When Ye Fan heard the word "neighbor", he smiled faintly and only said "hello". He didn't say anything else.
"So it's an old acquaintance. Your little neighbor is really impatient. The street is so wide but he still accidentally bumped into me. Brother Yang thought he was going to steal something. "
"But this young man is really pitiful. He has been reduced to a beggar at such a young age."
"Beggars nowadays steal while begging. Sister Li, you have to tell him not to take the wrong path."
Cultivators and mortals were people of two different worlds. Especially the people at the bottom of the mortal world – beggars, it was even more difficult to have any interaction with them. When the young men and women talked, they didn't care that Ye Fan was next to them.
"Brothers and sisters, do you have money on you? Lend me some." Li Xiaoman took some money from the young men and women and gave it to Ye Fan, "Go change your clothes. Don't be a beggar. I believe you can support yourself."
"Sister Li is so kind."
"Yes, Sister Li is really compassionate. He is just a neighbor, but she gave him so much money. "
"Little beggar, you have to walk the right path in the future. Don't steal. Otherwise, you will be sorry to Sister Li."
The young men and women next to them all spoke.
Ye Fan's eyes were clear. He quietly looked at Li Xiaoman and didn't reach out to take the money. He said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need this."
A young man at the side immediately frowned and said, "I say, little beggar, what's wrong with you? Junior Sister Li gave you clean money, but you don't want it. Do you really want to live by stealing?"
Li Xiaoman's expression was tranquil, and her eyes were as calm as the surface of a lake. She handed the coin to Ye Fan and said, "Take it, and be a normal person."
Ye Fan ignored the people around him and pushed the coin back, "Don't worry, I can survive. I wish you a smooth journey on the path of cultivation. "
"This little beggar really wants to save face and suffer. He's already reduced to begging, yet he's still so virtuous."
"Don't be so virtuous now. Just turn around and steal."
The young men and women next to him were very dissatisfied.
Li Xiaoman stared at Ye Fan and said in a calm voice, "These are helpful to you now, so don't reject them. Hurry up and accept them. Don't tell me you really want to beg for a living?"
Ye Fan still did not take the coin. "Congratulations on regaining your youth." He sensed that Li Xiaoman was only at the Bitter Sea stage, and could not be compared to him. But he did not know why she had regained her vitality.
"Thank you, I was just lucky." Li Xiaoman did not insist and took the coin back.
One of the young women smiled. "This little beggar really knows a lot of things. He even knows that junior sister Li had lost her youthful vitality. It seems he really is an old acquaintance."
"He and I are just neighbours, we don't know each other very well. Perhaps after more than ten years, it will be difficult to recognize him when we meet again..." Li Xiaoman was very calm from beginning to end. She said indifferently, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
Although Ye Fan's face was covered with dirt, his smile was still very bright, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth. "Yes, memories will always fade. Some people and things will eventually fade with the passage of time."
"This little beggar is not old, but he has quite a character." A girl at the side looked at Ye Fan before looking at Li Xiaoman. She said, "It's a pity that you don't know him very well, junior sister. Otherwise, you could bring him back to Ziyang Grotto-Heaven and make him do odd jobs in the sect. It's better than him begging on the streets."
A man nodded when he heard this. "The sect is very strict when it comes to choosing people, you must know them thoroughly."
Li Xiaoman was as calm as an ancient well, her expression incomparably calm. She said to Ye Fan, "Don't walk on the wrong path. Be an ordinary person, that is not necessarily a kind of happiness."
Ye Fan smiled and did not say anything. He waved his hand and left in large strides.
"This little beggar gives people a very special feeling..." The young men and women next to him unanimously evaluated.
Ye Fan left in large strides, blending into the endless stream of people. After a quarter of an hour, he appeared in an antique shop, constantly bargaining with the boss.
"What? It's only fifty copper coins. One must be honest and not too greedy. "
"Young man, don't be so greedy. It's just a wooden box. How can it be worth ten gold coins?"
"This is a red sandalwood box. If you don't want it, I'll go to another shop..." With that, Ye Fan turned and left.
"Don't be in such a hurry, the price can be negotiated." The antique shop boss hurriedly stopped Ye Fan.
Finally, Ye Fan was satisfied and left with ten gold coins.
It was already noon. He was hungry, but he did not want to eat and dash. In the end, he sold the red sandalwood box that contained the "Source" and used another ordinary wooden box that was only worth one copper coin to store the "Source".
"The Jiang family's knight!" When Ye Fan raised his head to look at the sky, he was immediately shocked. There was a strange beast circling in the sky above the huge city. Not long after, it flew into the distance. He felt very puzzled. He did not know how the other party could always find him.
Ye Fan went up to a restaurant, ordered a table of dishes, and ate to his heart's content. He had not eaten a hot meal in the past few days of fleeing, so naturally, he was ravenous at this moment.
After an hour, he finally stood up with satisfaction. The waiter had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that he was dressed in shabby clothes, like a beggar asking for food, he was afraid that he would quietly slip away after eating.
Naturally, Ye Fan would not bicker with him. He threw down the money and turned to go downstairs. As soon as he arrived on the street, he was shocked. The Jiang family's knight had entered the city, riding on the strange beast, and just happened to disappear around the corner of the street.
"What's going on? Why can they always chase me? Although they can't lock onto me, they seem to be able to track the general direction! " A trace of worry appeared on Ye Fan's face. He felt that things were not good. He could not stay in this city any longer, or something would definitely happen. He did not stop at all and directly left the city. Then, he flew away and plunged into the distant mountain forest.
"They are really persistent. How can I completely shake them off?" Ye Fan traversed the mountains and passed through the endless mountain range. He only stopped when the sky turned dark.
Just at this moment, Ye Fan felt that the Spiritual Energy in the depths of the mountain range was dense. It seemed to be many times denser than in other regions. When he traveled another few dozen kilometers, he revealed a shocked expression. He saw a large limestone with four ancient words carved on it: Purple Yang Cave Heaven.
"How did I end up here …"
Ye Fan discovered that he had actually arrived at the Purple Yang Cave Heaven. This was the sect that Li Xiaoman was in. This blessed land was not very far from the city he had just been in.
It was necessary to mention here that this book would definitely have a love story, and there would definitely be descriptions of different female characters.
