Across the entire Nine Provinces, traitors like Dong Shuye were extremely rare because erasing the Sect's Brand required a large amount of merit points, but Dong Shuye had no other choice.
The merit points he had painstakingly accumulated over the years had all been used up, and he was now burdened with the identity and reputation of a traitor. With three of his Spirit Apertures broken and his path forward almost cut off, Dong Shuye had reached a dead end.
And the source of all this was that Tiger Crossing Mountain called Yi Ye had killed Nine Stars Sect's Young Master.
If not for this, Nine Stars Sect would not have accepted Profound Sect's declaration of war. If not for this, Dong Shuye would not have taken the risk to personally chase after Yi Ye, and Nine Stars Sect's station would not have been so easily breached.
Thinking of the dead Tiger Crossing Mountain, Dong Shuye burned with anger, wishing he could dig out his corpse and cut it into a hundred pieces.
Dying like this was too easy for him!
Fortunately, Dong Shuye was not without a place to go. Over the past few years, he had built up some connections in the Spirit Stream Battlefield, so even if his cultivation had fallen, he was still a Sixth Order. Moreover, as a Sixth Order, he was stronger than almost all ordinary Sixth Order cultivators, so he could easily find an Eighth or Ninth Order Force to join.
But before that, he needed to stay far away from Nine Stars Sect's station as the Sect should already be searching for him.

"Lu Ye, are we leaving?" Inside the room, Yi Yi asked.
Lu Ye nodded, "It's time to go," Turning to look at her, "You and Hu Po can stay."
"Don't even think about leaving us behind!" Yi Yi was a little annoyed, "We agreed to start this journey together, so we will end it together. Do you think Hu Po and I are burdens?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Ye flicked her forehead, "Without Hu Po, I would have died long ago."
Yi Yi stretched out her hand and covered her forehead, huffing, "That's why I'm the most useless one."
"You're also very useful."
"Useful in what way?" Yi Yi looked at him expectantly.
Lu Ye thought about it seriously for a moment, "When I rest, you stand guard next to me, so I can have a good night's sleep."
"En," Yi Yi lowered her head.
Lu Ye raised her hand and pinched her face. "Alright, we'll leave tomorrow. Go and say goodbye to Lingyu."
After Yiyi left, Lu Ye stood in place and thought for a while. He should also say goodbye to Hua Ci. He had already left without saying goodbye the last time. No matter what, she had saved his life twice. It was inappropriate to keep doing this.
Walking out of the bamboo building, Zhang Xuan walked to the neighboring building and knocked lightly on the door.
Hua Ci opened the door and saw that it was Lu Ye. She asked warily, "What's wrong? What kind of drug do you want to drug me this time?"
"Don't give me that!" Lu Ye couldn't help but glare at her. "I was fooled by you last time. Do you think I don't know?"
He only reacted a few days later. Hua Ci was a Fifth-Order Medical Cultivator who was proficient in Medicine, so how could she be so easily drugged by a pill? Even if that pill had such an effect, just sniffing it was impossible for it to have such a strong effect.
Therefore, he took out the pink pill and sniffed it.
In the end, nothing happened! Only then did he realize that he had been tricked by Hua Ci.
"I've been discovered …"
Lu Ye glared at her again before getting down to business. "I'll be leaving tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye to you. Thank you for saving my life twice."
Hua Ci blinked. "I'm a Medical Cultivator, and you're a patient. You gave me the pill, and I saved you. It's only right."
"No matter what, I still have to thank you," Lu Ye said seriously.
Hua Ci smiled. "Then I wish you a safe journey and a bright future."
"Thank you."
"Is there anything else?"
"En? Nothing. "
"Then I'm going to rest."
After the door closed, Lu Ye remembered that he had forgotten to add this woman as a friend. He raised his hand and was about to knock, but gave up after thinking about it. He might not have the chance to see her again in the future.
The next morning, Hua Ci, accompanied by Kong Niu, rushed to Tassel Square as usual.
When Lu Ye left, she had already left.
Instead, it was Ruan Lingyu, the little girl, who came to see him off. She was reluctant to part, and her tears stained her scarf. Even after Lu Ye had ridden far away on Hu Po, he still saw her standing in front of the dilapidated mountain gate, waving her hand vigorously when he looked back.
After descending the mountain, Hu Po began to run, and the surrounding scenery kept receding. Yi Yi was not in a good mood. She had formed a deep friendship with Ruan Lingyu these days, and she was reluctant to part with her little friend all of a sudden.
Lu Ye did not know how to comfort her, so he just let her be. He swallowed some pills on Hu Po's back and began to cultivate.
He was only one step away from the Fourth-Order Spirit Stream Realm, and he estimated that he would be able to reach it tomorrow.
It was not until night time when Yi Yi slowly recovered. She untied the Storage Bag tied around Hu Po's neck and took out a lot of medicinal powder and clean cotton cloth.
"Where did you get these?" Lu Ye asked curiously while eating barbecue.
"Senior Sister Hua Ci gave them to me," Yi Yi explained. "She said that if you get injured again in the future, these medicines can be applied externally or taken orally."
As for the clean cotton cloth, it was undoubtedly used to bandage wounds.
Looking at these things, Lu Ye's mood was complicated. Although Hua Ci was a bit greedy and her words were a bit hurtful, it was undeniable that she was a very warm-hearted person.
Knowing that Lu Ye would often get injured in fights, she prepared these things for him.
"Really …" Lu Ye curled his lips. If she had prepared these things for him, she should have just handed them to him when they parted yesterday. Why didn't she say anything?
"Lu Ye, Lu Ye, has Senior Sister Hua Ci taken a fancy to you?" Yi Yi asked curiously. Hu Po, who was gnawing on a piece of meat, also raised his head and stared at Lu Ye with his shining tiger eyes.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Ye put away the things. He did not think that he had such great charm that he could charm such a woman with just a few simple interactions.
Hua Ci had saved many people, and in her eyes, he was just a rich patient.
But for Lu Ye, the kindness of saving his life twice was something he had to remember in his heart.
The Scattered Wanderers Society was actually a pretty good place. If Lu Ye did not have to go to the Blue Blood Sect's encampment, staying there would undoubtedly be a very good choice.
He continued to cultivate. Yi Yi had run off somewhere, and when she came back, she was sneaky and sneaky.
At daybreak, they continued on their journey. Yi Yi would occasionally disappear, and she would also take the storage bag that Lu Ye had given her. Lu Ye asked her what she was doing, but she would only smile mysteriously and refuse to tell him!
She and Hu Po had a special connection. As long as they were not too far apart, they could sense each other, so Lu Ye was not worried that she would get lost.
"Yi Yi, what's your surname?" On the tiger's back, Yi Yi had a rare moment of peace, so Lu Ye asked.
"I don't remember." Yi Yi shook her head. She could remember many things, but there were also many things that she could not remember.
"I see …" Lu Ye thought for a moment, "A person should have a surname. Why don't you take my surname?"
"Take your surname?" Yi Yi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then smiled, "Alright, you're Lu Yi Ye, and I'm Lu Yi Yi. Sounds like we're family!"
She suddenly jumped onto Hu Po's head, and facing the strong wind, she put her hands by her mouth and shouted, "I'm Lu Yi Yi!"
In the vast wilderness, her voice spread far and wide …
