Another year passed. This was the umpteenth time she had come here. She stood quietly under a tree of red flowers. The flowers bloomed with a different kind of charm. A gentle breeze ruffled her hair, bringing with it a hint of decadent fragrance.
She is not a sentimental person, but this year she became sentimental. Maybe, women in love are more emotional.
However, her love was just a crush, a one-sided love.
He didn't even know. Yan Shuhui thought.
Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on her face as she recalled the scene of her bickering with a certain someone last year. A certain someone's words were always so vulgar. When she thought about it, she blushed again. The red flowers of the mangrove tree and her face formed a beautiful picture.
But her face became distressed again. When would that hooligan come out of seclusion?
Yan Shuhui was looking forward to this question, but she was also afraid. She was looking forward to seeing a certain hooligan sooner, but she was afraid that once he came out, it would be time for them to part ways. It would be better if he never came out.
But would he never come out? Of course not. He wasn't that kind of person. He was someone who would never be willing to be lonely and calm …
And to what extent would his cultivation be restored after he came out? She relied on the medicinal pills left behind by her grandfather to build her foundation, but he also had the Five Elements Spiritual Root, so how could he also build his foundation? The reason he joined the Ironarm Demonic Sect was to learn the Ironarm Demonic Art. Did that mean he didn't care about his Spirit Root?
These questions had been lingering in Yan Shuhui's heart for a long time. However, she could tell that Ye Kong would definitely not be like her, staying at the Foundation Establishment Stage forever. He would definitely succeed. There would be a day when he would become a True Monarch, a Divine Monarch, and even ascend.
But she would never be able to level up, and she would never be able to accompany him on his travels …
Thinking of this, Yan Shuhui's expression became bitter again. She is not a sentimental person, but she thinks too much.
Just as she was standing under the red tree and feeling sad, a loud noise suddenly came from the outer courtyard of the Yan Residence.
Yan Shuhui raised her head in confusion. Her pair of limpid eyes blinked in confusion. Logically speaking, the Yan residence shouldn't be so noisy. Suddenly, a bad premonition came to her mind.
Sure enough, she saw the housekeeper, Yan Fu, running over and shouting from afar, "Miss, let's go! The Painting Sound Devil Sect's people are here to capture you! "
Yan Shuhui's beautiful brows raised as she asked in bewilderment, "Painttone Devil Sect? Why did you capture me? "
"I don't know. The few women who came were aggressive. Master told you to go to other realms to avoid the limelight." Yan Fu rushed over and quickly handed over a small black bag full of spirit stones.
"I'm not leaving!" Yan Shuhui pushed the spirit stone away and walked towards the front hall.
Logically speaking, because of Ye Kong, the Yan Clan and the Sound Devil Sect had a good relationship. The Sound Devil Sect had also taken good care of the Yan Clan. It was really strange that she was asked to leave the Iron Painting Sect for no reason today. How could she leave her parents just like that?
In the front hall of the Yan Residence, there was indeed a row of women from the Soundsound Devil Sect standing there. They surrounded the two elders of the Yan Family. All of them had cold expressions, and they attacked with their flying swords. It was obvious that they had come with ill intentions.
The leading woman was even more arrogant as she said in a stern voice, "Old Man Yan! Your daughter used some tricks to sneak through our sect's selection last year. Under the orders of our sect's elders, we are here to capture her and bring her back for punishment! "
When the leading woman shouted, the female disciples behind her shouted in unison, "Old Man Yan! Quickly hand over your daughter! "
Yan Fengyun was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He was depressed. This matter had already passed for a year, why were they bringing it up again?
Wu Xiaoyun displayed the calmness of a lady from a noble family. She went forward and laughed, "May I know how to address you, Fellow Daoist?"
The leading woman raised her eyebrows and replied in an angry voice, "Chu Fanglan!"
"So it's Fellow Daoist Chu." Wu Xiaoyun said with a smile, "My son-in-law, Ye Kong, has a very good relationship with your sect master, Perfected Lord Huang Shishi. Can you let him go …"
Before Wu Xiaoling could finish, she was interrupted by Chu Fanglan's angry shout, "Huang Shishi having an affair with a mortal is a disgrace to the Painting Sound Devil Sect! Elder Zhu Lingfei is fully in charge of our sect now. Such a thing will never happen again! "
Chu Fanglan's words instantly made the situation clear. It was obvious that after Elder Zhu Lingfei took power, he wanted to take revenge on Huang Shishi. That was why he deliberately came to find trouble with the Yan Family.
Yan Fengyun hurriedly walked out and smiled apologetically. "Actually, the rumors outside are just rumors. Our Yan Family has always been doing business in an upright manner. No matter which sect master is in charge of the Painting Sound Devil Sect, our Yan Family is willing to serve. "
Yan Fengyun's words meant that he was compromising. Our Yan Family is only doing business. No matter who is in charge of the Painting Sound Devil Sect, if there is a need, just say the word.
Chu Fanglan looked at Yan Fengyun and nodded with a smile. She said, "Fellow Daoist Yan is indeed an understanding person. Then I might as well say it directly."
I know that you guys are not just looking for trouble. Yan Fengyun hurriedly smiled apologetically. "Fellow Daoist, please speak. If it's something that the Yan Family can do, I will definitely go through fire and water."
Chu Fanglan's heart was at ease. She knew that her goal today was about to be achieved. She said, "There's no need for Elder Yan to go through fire and water. Actually, although Yan Shuhui's crime is serious, it's fine as long as sufficient compensation is given … "
So they were here to extort. However, they only wanted money and not their lives. That was fine.
Yan Fengyun was just about to speak when Chu Fanglan waved her hand arrogantly to stop him. "When I'm speaking, don't interrupt!"
Yan Fengyun's old face instantly turned red. Damn it, this woman really doesn't give me face. You're in the middle stage of Core Formation, and I'm also in the middle stage. What right do you have to speak to me in this tone?
However, he had no choice. They had more people and had the entire devil sect behind them. Yan Fengyun could only forcefully suppress his anger.
"Alright, please speak." Yan Fengyun said in a low voice.
This old fellow still dared to ask for face? Chu Fanglan snorted coldly and said, "Let's be frank. Our Painting Sound Devil Sect wants your Yan Family's pill formulas for refining supreme-grade Great Restore Pill and supreme-grade Essence Augmenting Pill, as well as the refinement experience!"
Yan Fengyun finally knew that Elder Zhu Lingfei wasn't simply looking for trouble and extortion. He was here for the pill formulas!
However, Yan Fengyun thought that his family really couldn't fight against the Painting Sound Devil Sect. A lone wolf wouldn't fight when the odds were against him. Since the pill formulas didn't belong to the Yan Family, why not persuade his daughter to give the pill formulas to them? He believed that Ye Kong would understand when he came out of seclusion.
However, right at this moment, a clear and loud voice of rejection came from outside the house. "Impossible!"
Yan Shuhui strode into the hall and said to Chu Fanglan righteously, "Pill formulas are the foundation of every pill refinement shop. How can we give them to outsiders for free? What's the difference between your actions and daylight robbery? I believe the Iron Arm Devil Sect won't ignore this kind of robbing behavior! "
