The two of them had originally felt a little wronged, but they did not dare to disobey their master's arrangements. However, after hearing these words, the two of them immediately became spirited. It turned out that this was their master's far-sighted arrangement, and not an act of helplessness that would implicate the two of them.
They immediately cupped their hands and said, "Disciple understands. Master, don't worry. We won't let you down!"
"Good, very good, it's good that you understand!"
Hong Changhai patted the shoulders of the two of them, gratified. Since the logic had been explained, there was no need to say anything more. He turned around and beckoned the two of them to return.
Not long after, Hong Changhai personally led a group of twenty people, led by two disciples, over from the distant hillside. He stopped in front of Miao Yi, and extended his hand to point at the crowd, saying, "Cave Master Miao, I have brought the people you wanted. This is their name list and information."
Miao Yi took the jade archive and examined it. He noticed the names of Yuan Fang and Lai Yuhan, who were both Blue Lotus cultivators. He lifted his head to look at the crowd and asked, "Who are Yuan Fang and Lai Yuhan?"
"Yuan Fang and Lai Yuhan greet the Cave Master!"
The two of them cupped their hands in greeting. They kept in mind their master's instructions and didn't put on any airs. They acted as subordinates.
They were two old men. Miao Yi was a little puzzled. The names of these two old men sounded like the names of women. If one didn't meet them, they would definitely think that they were women.
Looking at the others, he realized that they were all old men. Not a single one of them was young.
He couldn't help but turn around to look at Yan Xiu behind him. Yan Xiu immediately urged his dragon steed forward to obey his orders, thinking that Miao Yi had some instructions for him.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yi shook his head and didn't give any instructions.
Little did they know that Miao Yi was actually lamenting in his heart. Yan Xiu was also an old man, and Yao Ruoxian was also an old man. In the entire East Arrival Cave, it seemed like he, the Cave Master, was the youngest. A young Cave Master leading a bunch of old men, wouldn't it be a little too eye-catching if he went out?
However, after thinking about it, he decided to forget about it. What he wanted was their cultivation, not their looks or age. It was fine as long as they were useful.
He collected the list of information. Miao Yi cupped his fists towards Hong Changhai and said, "Elder Hong, I still have matters to attend to. I will take my leave now!"
Hong Changhai also cupped his fists and said politely, "Cave Master Miao, please take good care of our sect's disciples in the future!"
"Don't worry about that. As long as they listen to my orders, I won't mistreat them. Goodbye! "
"Forgive me for not seeing you off!"
Miao Yi swept his gaze across his well-trained subordinates. His confidence soared and his spirits rose. He screamed in his heart, Yuan Zhengkun, you bastard, just you wait. I'll send troops to chop Yuan Zhengkun into pieces. Let's see what you can do to me then!
"Let's go!" The Great Cave Master Miao waved his hand, and took the lead in galloping away.
After the group of School of Blue Jade disciples cupped their fists and saluted Hong Changhai, they immediately chased after him with rumbling hooves.
Along the way, the white snow on the road was kicked up by the galloping hooves of the dragon steeds. Halfway through the journey, the sunlight disappeared. Snowflakes fell from the sky again.
The twenty or so steeds didn't stop along the way, and directly arrived at the edge of the sea within the borders of East Arrival Cave. They stopped by a reef by the seaside.
Under the gray sky, snowflakes fluttered down, and the waves of the sea beat against the shore.
Sitting atop Charcoal, Miao Yi swept a glance to his left and right, then shouted, "Qian'Er. Xue'Er. Why aren't you coming out to see me?!"
Not long after, a head peeked out from behind a reef. The head turned back. As if summoning, two heads rose from the ground.
If it wasn't Qian'Er and Xue'Er, who else could it be?
And the man sitting on the foremost dragon steed was none other than their Cave Master.
The Cave Master seemed to be even more impressive than when he left. With so many old men quietly guarding behind the Cave Master, one look was enough to tell that the Cave Master was the leader.
The two girls immediately felt at ease. Before this, they had been worried whether they would be able to see the Cave Master again.
It could be said that they were overjoyed. They lifted their skirts and ran out, stopping in front of Charcoal to slightly straighten their skirts. They bowed in unison, "Greetings, Cave Master!"
Miao Yi modestly raised his hand, indicating that there was no need to be overly courteous. "I've made the two of you suffer!"
As soon as he said this. The two girls remembered the tragedy, and instantly burst into tears. They wiped their tears and choked, "Cave Master, you're finally back. Our home was destroyed. Our sisters …."
"The enemy has already been chased away. It's fine now!" Miao Yi consoled them.
The two girls wiped their tears as they looked at him and nodded. They didn't doubt his words in the slightest. In their eyes, the Cave Master had always been very impressive. Those bad guys had provoked the Cave Master to return, so they would definitely be in trouble. Naturally, they would be chased away by the Cave Master.
Yan Xiu's eyes reddened in shock. He had thought that the two girls had already met with misfortune. He didn't think that they would still be alive, and were actually hiding here. But where could they hide? Naturally, they would find a more familiar hiding place to hide. Why didn't he think of coming here to look for them? How did the Cave Master know that they were hiding here? Looking at the two girls' reactions, it was very obvious that they hadn't told the Cave Master beforehand that they were hiding here. But the Cave Master had rushed straight here to find them as soon as he returned.
Yan Xiu couldn't help but be impressed. No wonder he could become the Cave Master at such a young age, and was still able to return alive after going to the Sea of Constellations. As expected, even his brain was more useful than his own.
Miao Yi took the initiative to bend down and extend his hand towards the two of them, pulling them up to sit behind him. He turned his horse around and shouted, "Return to East Arrival Cave!"
The twenty or so steeds behind him immediately followed...
When they left for East Arrival Cave, it was still relatively intact. When they returned and saw the ruins of East Arrival Cave, and the unsightly corpses of their sisters hanging amidst the fluttering snowflakes, the two girls once again burst into tears. They ran over to put down the corpses hanging from the broken beams, but were stopped by Yan Xiu. He pointed at Miao Yi, who was walking towards Yao Ruoxian, and explained that it was the Cave Master's will.
Yuan Fang and the rest looked at the destroyed East Arrival Cave, and then looked at the corpses hanging from the ceiling in humiliation. One after another, they looked at each other in dismay.
Yao Ruoxian sat on a stone pillar that had fallen to the ground. He crossed his legs and smiled at Miao Yi, who was walking over. His messy beard and hair were stained with a few snowflakes.
"Has Senior been guarding this place all this time?" Miao Yi cupped his fists and asked politely, but in his heart, he was cursing the other party.
Unexpectedly, Yao Ruoxian smiled and gave an irrelevant answer, "Is that woman your mistress?"
"..." Miao Yi was stunned. He turned to look at Qian'Er and Xue'Er, "They are my handmaidens."
Yao Ruoxian stood up, patted his shoulder and shook his head, "Not them. I'm talking about the woman you single-handedly rescued from the encirclement."
"Uh..." Miao Yi asked suspiciously, "Are you talking about our Mountain Chieftain Qin Weiwei? How could I possibly have an affair with her! "
Yao Ruoxian chuckled, "Then it must be because you like her. Otherwise, why would you risk your life to save her?"
"I like her?" Miao Yi sneered, "That bitch? I would like her? Even if she knelt in front of me and begged me to like her, I would immediately turn around and leave. Even if I liked a sow, I would never like that bitch. Senior Yao, what kind of taste do you have? I received a great favor from her father, so I'm repaying it … Oh, that's not right. How did you know I saved her? "
With a face full of suspicion, he scanned the sloppy old man from head to toe, "You were following me?"
If Qin Weiwei were to hear his words, she would probably want to kill him.
Yao Ruoxian chuckled coldly, but didn't comment. However, he looked at Miao Yi in a different light. To be able to call that woman a bitch, it seemed like he really didn't like her. To risk his life to repay a debt of gratitude, and to be able to give up everything for a dragon steed, this brat was indeed a loyal and affectionate person. He really was a little interesting...
Miao Yi broke out in a cold sweat. It seemed like this old man had really been following him all this time. If he were to run away halfway, he might get his head smashed open by this old man's mace.
It wasn't that he didn't have the thought of running away, but the monk could run, but the temple couldn't. He was already a member of the system, so he couldn't just come and go as he pleased. If he really ran away, then not only would Yao Ruoxian want to settle the score with him, the current rules of the game wouldn't let him go either.
What's more, Yao Ruoxian had made it clear that if he dared to run away, he would immediately announce the secret between him and the tiny mantids. He was sure that by then, there would be countless people who wanted to capture him. With the help of the entire cultivation realm, he would see where Miao Yi could hide. 'If I can't get my hands on the tiny mantids, then don't even think about having an easy time, you brat.'
Yao Ruoxian didn't continue on this topic, and gestured towards the ruins of East Arrival Cave with his lips, "In this world of ice and snow, do you really plan on spending the night outside?"
"I'll take care of it." Miao Yi turned around and walked over to Yuan Fang and the others. He ordered them to cut down the trees and build a house to shelter themselves from the wind and snow.
As for rebuilding East Arrival Cave, he had already sworn an oath beforehand. The dozen or so corpses hanging in the cold wind made him feel uneasy were a constant reminder to him.
Yuan Fang and Lai Yuhan didn't try to shirk the responsibility. They were rather cooperative, and immediately organized their fellow disciples to carry out the task...
At Ever Peace Manor, Wan Shunchang was strolling in the snow in the guest courtyard, admiring the snow and the plum blossoms.
The sound of galloping hooves could be heard from afar. Having been waiting for good news for a long time, his spirits were lifted. He dusted off his clothes and tidied them up, then turned to the handmaiden accompanying him and pointed in the direction of the grand hall. He smiled and said, "Good news has arrived. Brother Zhang must have returned victorious. Come, let's go take a look!"
The handmaiden pursed her lips into a smile. She was happy as well. If her master had really left that Suppressing Second Hall, where there were people everywhere, and become a feudal lord, not only would there be many benefits, but she would also have a lot more freedom. A handmaiden's status would always rise with the tide.
The master and handmaiden quickly rushed towards the grand hall. However, halfway there, they heard the rumbling sounds of battle.
The sounds of battle only lasted for a short while. After a few miserable cries, everything calmed down.
Wan Shunchang was anxious to see what had happened, so he quickly rushed to the grand hall. In the end, he saw Yang Qing personally leading a large group of troops, charging straight in. The cultivators who had stayed behind didn't have a high cultivation base, so how could they withstand the attack of so many people? They were almost instantly annihilated by the large group of troops, with no effect whatsoever.
When he saw Yang Qing leading the troops, Wan Shunchang was shocked. Why was Yang Qing here? Could it be that Zhang Decheng had lost? That was impossible!
"How dare you, Yang Qing! Why are you leading your troops into Ever Peace Manor?" Wan Shunchang shouted as he pointed down from above the grand hall.
As one of the six Deacons of Suppressing Second Hall, even though his position was the same as the ten Manor Heads, he was still someone who handled matters at a higher level, so he had the right to speak such words.
Yang Qing raised his head and noticed him. He raised his hand to stop the troops behind him, and they all stopped.
