"What Black Yin Ancestor? Get out of my sight!"
Wang Chong said from within the stone array. He had no understanding of the factions of the martial arts world, and he had never even heard of the Black Yin Ancestor. Wei Changting's mention of the Black Yin Ancestor's name was pointless.
Wei Changting's face alternated between green and white at Wang Chong's words. The Black Yin Ancestor was like the noon sun in the martial arts world, and even the members of the Zhengqi League had to fear him. This person's rude words were truly impudent to the extreme. But one had to lower one's head, and this person had an extremely powerful background. Wei Changting did not dare to be impudent and could only endure it.
"Since Senior is determined to interfere, then Changting has nothing to say. Let's go!"
Wei Changting said as he retreated with a vigilant expression, guarding against any possible attack from his opponent.
After retreating fifty-some steps and seeing no reaction from the mountain, the group breathed a sigh of relief. He hurriedly turned around and dashed out without looking back.
"Let's go!"
A few moments later, they had vanished without a trace.
… …
Once Wei Changting's group had left, the mountain fell silent. Song Youran's breathing was ragged, her eyes wide as she looked around, not daring to let down her guard.
"Senior, many thanks for saving my life!"
Song Youran respectfully bowed in the direction of the voice. Although it looked like a bow, her head was still slightly raised, her eyes constantly scanning the area as if trying to find Wang Chong's position.
Seeing this sight from within the stone formation, Wang Chong chuckled inwardly. This girl was not as simple as she looked.
"Senior, this junior is Song Youran, a disciple of the Zhengqi League. Would it be possible for Senior to come out and meet so that Youran can personally thank you?"
Song Youran deferentially said.
"There's no need! You can go. Saving you was a simple matter, so there's no need to thank me! "
Wang Chong said from within the stone formation.
"This … since Senior doesn't like it, then this junior … ah!"
As Song Youran spoke, she suddenly frowned and her body went limp. Her face pale, she staggered two steps before collapsing to the ground, unconscious.
"Not good!"
Wang Chong's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect the woman to lose so much blood and faint at this moment.
With no time to think, Wang Chong charged out of the stone formation and grabbed Song Youran's wrist.
But to Wang Chong's surprise, the moment he charged over, Song Youran, who had been lying on the ground, revealed a crafty smile. The moment Wang Chong grabbed her wrist, Song Youran reached out and grabbed Wang Chong's wrist.
"Senior, please forgive this junior …"
In the next moment, Song Youran's eyes went wide as she saw this handsome youth of eighteen or nineteen, though he seemed a little thin and weak.
She'd thought of many things, but she'd never imagined that the unfathomable Senior she'd imagined was actually a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and white teeth.
Moreover, his face was pale and his aura was in disarray. There was no way he was a senior of the martial arts world.
"Who are you?"
Song Youran subconsciously asked, her eyes wide.
"You lied to me!"
Upon seeing Song Youran's appearance, Wang Chong immediately understood. He slowly put down his wrist and stood up.
"Since Miss is fine, I'll be leaving first!"
Wang Chong had been rather worried about his master's group, so he had only intervened on occasion. He didn't want to involve himself too much with them.
"Wait …"
But just when Wang Chong was about to leave, he heard a woman's groan behind him. Wang Chong's lips curved into a smile. He had already suffered once, so he wouldn't fall for it a second time.
"Miss, there's no need to pretend. You should hurry back!"
The night wind howled through the mountains, but even as Wang Chong's voice echoed, there was no response. Wang Chong paused and turned his head. He saw that Song Youran was pale and motionless on the ground. Even her breathing was much weaker, and her body was covered in blood. Wang Chong grimaced as he finally realized that she hadn't been lying to him this time.
Swoosh!
With a wave of his robes, Wang Chong hurriedly flew over. At the same time, he took out a snow-white pill the size of a pigeon egg and fed it into the girl's mouth. After that, he sent a stream of Stellar Energy through her to treat her wounds.
"You saved me!"
After some time, Song Youran finally woke up, her complexion much better.
"Mm. You suffered very serious internal injuries, but I've already treated them for you."
Wang Chong indifferently said, somewhat absent-mindedly lost in his thoughts.
"Thank you."
Song Youran sincerely said, a hint of apology in her eyes. Although she had only wanted to draw out Wang Chong and had no evil intentions, she had still deceived him.
"In a little while, when you've mostly recovered, you can leave."
Wang Chong indifferently said, seeming to keep her at arm's length.
Song Youran did not get angry at Wang Chong's words. If he were an old senior, she would have treated him with great respect, but this youth seemed to be around her age, so she was instantly rather curious. Song Youran examined Wang Chong's back, her eyes flashing with many thoughts.
"You're looking for that guard? Is that right? "
At this moment, Song Youran suddenly spoke.
"Mm?"
Wang Chong frowned and turned his head.
"Heehee, a hidden sharpness and knowledge of all martial arts. You're Young Master Qingyang, Zong Shuiyun! Am I right? "
Song Youran suddenly smiled, a hint of craftiness in her eyes. Although she said 'am I right', her expression seemed to confirm Wang Chong's identity.
“!!!”
For a moment, Wang Chong was dumbfounded. He had already said that Song Youran would leave once her injuries were healed, but he had not expected her to say such a thing. But when he saw Song Youran's expression of 'I've seen through you, you can't hide anything from me', Wang Chong immediately realized that this girl had clearly misunderstood him, associating him with Young Master Qingyang Zong Shuiyun of the martial arts world.
"I guessed right, didn't I?!"
Song Youran had a smug look on her face, feeling that she had the upper hand in her clash with Wang Chong.
"It's said in the martial arts world that Young Master Qingyang Zong Shuiyun is well-read and knows all martial arts. Whether it's righteous or evil, he knows the weaknesses of all martial arts like the back of his hand. He can tell at a glance where an opponent's weakness is, but he was born missing one of the Nine Suns. Despite his extraordinary talent, his martial arts aren't very high. It's because of this unique ability that he's known as the leader of the Four Young Masters of the World. Moreover, he keeps a low profile and rarely interacts with the major sects, so his movements are secretive and almost no one recognizes him. The only thing he could identify was the guard beside him who was highly skilled in martial arts. You got separated from him, didn't you? You didn't leave because you were waiting for him. Did I guess right? "
At this point, Song Youran smiled. This strange fellow was truly unreasonable, but the more he was like this, the more she wanted to guess at his identity. She had thought about it for a very long time before finally realizing who Wang Chong was: Young Master Qingyang Zong Shuiyun! The two of them were far too similar. Both were low-key, both mysterious, and both unreasonable. Moreover, with just a few words, they were able to instruct the weak to defeat the strong and powerful.
Most importantly, the two of them were equally young.
Truly too young!
On the other side, Wang Chong said nothing, but his eyes shifted.
"Interesting!"
This thought suddenly flitted through Wang Chong's mind.
He had been just about ready to send this girl away, but now, he was getting a little interested. It was clear that she had mistaken him for someone else, but he had never imagined that there would be someone in the martial arts world who was similar to him. Moreover, it seemed like this person was just like him, able to instruct someone to defeat an even stronger opponent with just a few words.
"I didn't say that!"
Wang Chong indifferently said.
"Haha, I know that you don't want others to know. Relax, I won't tell anyone!"
Song Youran mischievously winked at Wang Chong.
"But Young Master, now that the Origin Immortal Palace has appeared, this place is a jumble of fish and dragons, and many factions have gathered here. Young Master might not be safe if you are alone. Why don't you come with me to the Zhengqi League? With the protection of our Zhengqi League, no one will dare to attack Young Master, and Young Master will be much safer. In addition, our Zhengqi League has many members. Perhaps we can help Young Master find that guard of yours. "
Song Youran's eyes were bright as she did her utmost to persuade Wang Chong.
Although Young Master Qingyang wasn't very skilled in martial arts, he was extremely well-read and was the leader of the Four Young Masters. Any sect that could recruit him would receive a massive boost in strength. Just a few words of advice from him might be enough to raise the strength of their disciples. Who knew how many sects in the world of sects wanted to recruit him into their sects?
Song Youran had never imagined that she would encounter this mysterious Young Master Qingyang here. If she could find a way to introduce this Young Master Qingyang to the elders and have him join the Zhengqi League, he would be of enormous assistance to the entire league.
Wang Chong said nothing, only pretended to think.
"I know that Young Master likes to explore secrets. Now that the Origin Immortal Mountain has appeared, I can have the experts of the league lead Young Master to explore the Origin Immortal Treasury!"
Song Youran saw that Wang Chong was' tempted 'and immediately added fuel to the fire. The entire martial arts world knew that Young Master Qingyang had no interest in the affairs of the martial arts world, but he liked to visit famous mountains and great rivers, as well as the various dangerous and legendary places of the martial arts world.
Young Master Qingyang's sudden appearance here clearly meant that he was headed for the treasury of the Origin Immortal Mountain.
The words' Origin Immortal Mountain 'caused Wang Chong's heart to tremble in shock. He had only been considering the matter at first, but Song Youran's words immediately stirred his heart.
Whether it was in my last life or this one, the martial arts world has always been extremely far away from me, and it's rare for me to run into one. I might as well take a stroll with her. First, I can understand the situation in the martial arts world, and second … I remember that the Formation Elder said that Master's greatest enemy is the Righteous Alliance Lord. It's good to sneak in and get a feel for the enemy, and I can also get a feel for the Origin Immortal Mountain. "
Although everyone in the world knew of the King of Foreign Lands, the world of sects was completely different. The Imperial Court and the world of sects were two completely different worlds, and the two rarely intersected. Thus, Wang Chong's identity as Young Master Qingyang actually posed little danger.
"That's fine!"
Wang Chong finally agreed.
"Wonderful!"
Song Youran immediately clenched her fists, a look of joy on her face.
