"Yes, I am." Seeing Ye Fan ask, the old man cupped his hands and answered to Ye Fan.
"Ye Fan greets Your Eminence." Ye Fan saw that the old man in front of him was surrounded by celestial Qi and auspicious Qi. He knew that he was undoubtedly a celestial, so he immediately returned the greeting.
"Mr. Eldritch, you're too polite." The old man in yellow nodded and waved his hand at Ye Fan. "I'm just a river god. My position is lowly and my cultivation is shallow. I can't compare to a celestial from the Upper Realm. How can I receive such a great greeting from you?"
"Your Eminence, you're wrong." Ye Fan raised his head and said, "To the Heavenly Realm, you may have a lowly position, but to the people on both sides of the Sishui River, your position is far more important than those celestial beings from the Upper Realm. Rice irrigation, drinking water, fishing, transportation, which one of these can be separated from the Sishui River? In my opinion, the respect of a god is not determined by the level of a god and his own cultivation. Whoever makes the people happy and free them from suffering is the one who is truly respected. "
"Hahaha …" The old man stroked his long beard and laughed. "People say that Mr. Eldritch is arrogant and unruly. He despises etiquette and abhors evil. He does things his own way and judges everything based on his own merits. Seeing you today, you're still as elegant as before."
"Your Eminence, you flatter me." Ye Fan smiled at the River God and cupped his hands. "May I know why Your Eminence is looking for me this time?"
"To tell you the truth, I'm here to give you a treasure." The River God smiled and said to Ye Fan.
"A treasure?" Ye Fan was puzzled and asked, "What treasure?"
"One of the Nine Scabbards of the Frost Dragon, the Qiuniu Scabbard." As the River God spoke, he flipped his palm and a silver light shone in his hand.
Amidst the silver light, a five-inch silver object floated above the old man's palm and shone with a dazzling light!
The object had a dragon head and a snake body, with scales and horns. It was wrapped in auspicious light and surrounded by auspicious Qi!
It was the Qiuniu Scabbard!
Ye Fan's eyes lit up!
He never thought that the Qiuniu Sword Sheath of the Nine Sheaths of the Frost Dragon would be in the hands of Si Water God!
Whizz … Just as Ye Fan was in a daze, the Frost Dragon Sword that was coiled around his waist suddenly glowed with brilliant light. It let out a humming sound as it left Ye Fan and hovered in front of Ye Fan, flashing with silver light as it let out an excited cry!
Han Long had already sensed one of the Nine Sons, Qiu Niu!
The Qiuniu Sword Scabbard hovering in Si Water God's hand began to tremble in excitement as well!
Whoosh … The sword and the scabbard instantly rushed towards each other and merged into one!
Clang …
After the reunion of the Divine Weapon father and son, the Cold Dragon Sword that was floating in the air suddenly let out a roar of a tiger and a dragon. The silver light instantly surged, and the sword light soared into the sky, directly shooting towards the bull!
At the same time, the small silver snake coiled around the hilt of the Cold Dragon Sword underwent a huge change!
Buzz … Two rays of green light shot out from the gem-encrusted silver snake's eyes, and the resplendent silver snake instantly began to slowly crawl around the scabbard!
In the process of crawling, a dragon claw gradually emerged from the snake's belly!
At this time, the Cold Dragon Sword had already obtained the Four Divine Scabbards: Tao Tie, Tao Wu, Tao Wu, and Qiu Niu!
The silver snake on the Cold Dragon Sword also transformed into a dragon shape with the return of the Four Divine Scabbards!
A dragon tail formed, dragon scales appeared, and dragon claws formed a pair of dragon claws. At this time, a part of the seal that was suppressing the Cold Dragon Sword was broken!
When the brilliance on the sword gradually dissipated, Ye Fan, who was wild with joy, waved his hand at the Cold Dragon Sword that was floating in the air!
Whoosh! The Cold Dragon Sword turned into a ray of white light and flew back to Ye Fan's hand in an instant!
Looking at the Cold Dragon Sword that was surging with spiritual power in his hand, Ye Fan revealed a child-like smile on his face.
"This item has been in the Si Water River for nearly a hundred years, and I have kept it in the clamshell for safekeeping," Si Water God said to Ye Fan with a smile, "When you first came to the Si Water River, this item shone brilliantly and kept ringing. I wanted to show up and return this item to its original owner, but the time was not right at that time, and the karma was not mature, so I did not show up. Now, you have obtained two cauldrons of secret patterns in one day, which is really the will of the heavens. Today, I will return the Qiuniu Sword Scabbard to its original owner, and I will have one less thing to worry about. "
"Thank you, River God." After Ye Fan put away the Cold Dragon Sword, he bowed to Si Water God and thanked him.
"It's nothing. You are too kind, sir." Si Water God waved his hand at Ye Fan and continued, "The dragon has nine sons, and each of them is different. Among the nine sons, Qiuniu is the eldest. He likes music and hates fighting. He is the most docile divine creature among the nine sons. Now that you are the king of the Demon Realm, your position is respected, and your killing intent is blazing. I hope that you will think more about Qiuniu in the future when your killing intent soars to the sky, and don't kill again. I am speaking from the bottom of my heart. Please don't take offense. "
"I will remember your words." Ye Fan said respectfully to the River God.
"In that case, I will not delay your search for the cauldrons. I will take my leave now." The River God said to Ye Fan.
"Farewell, River God." Ye Fan cupped his hands to send him off.
The white-haired old man with a cane nodded, then turned into a ray of auspicious light, flew into the river, and disappeared...
An hour later, Akatsuki, who was knocked unconscious by Ye Fan's Sky Demon Spiritual Pressure, slowly opened her eyes.
She found herself lying on a haystack in the dense forest, with a bonfire beside her.
Beside the bonfire, Ye Fan, who was dressed in black, was leaning against a bluestone, roasting two pheasants over the fire.
The pheasants were golden in color and smelled delicious.
Beside him, Baihu stared at the pheasants in Ye Fan's hands, licking her lips from time to time.
"You are awake?" Ye Fan turned the pheasant in his hands and looked up at Akatsuki.
"Where is this?" Akatsuki sat up and asked Ye Fan.
"This dense forest is not far from Si Water River. I saw that you and Xiao Zhao were soaked, so I brought you here. You can rest, warm yourself by the fire, and eat something." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
Akatsuki did not speak.
She got up from the haystack and sat down beside the fire.
"Don't be stupid next time. If I hadn't caught you in time, you would have been sucked in by that black hole." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki. "You are already an adult, but you still do things without a sense of propriety."
"Don't worry, there won't be a next time." Akatsuki hugged her knees and said as she added wood to the fire, "You will be alone in the future. No one will give you trouble."
Ye Fan was shocked, but he did not speak.
The two fell into silence.
They could only hear the crackling of the firewood and the sizzling of the pheasant.
"The pheasant is done. Here, eat." After a long time, Ye Fan was the first to break the silence. He handed a pheasant skewered with branches to Akatsuki.
"I'm not hungry. You eat." Akatsuki said without raising her head.
"What? Are you completely drawing the line between you and me? "Ye Fan asked Akatsuki." You can't even eat the food I make? "
Akatsuki bit her lower lip and lowered her head in silence. She used the branch in her hand to fiddle with the fire.
"Your spiritual energy is exhausted and your body is weak. If you don't eat, it will hurt your body." Ye Fan gently persuaded Akatsuki. "You can be angry with me, but you can't be angry with your body."
Akatsuki's eyes reddened and large drops of tears flowed out.
She felt very wronged.
But she could not say why she felt wronged.
In detail, Ye Fan had not done anything wrong.
He had brought her to Lingyun Cave to play and personally cooked for her.
Even if he had hinted at her, so what? What he hinted at was the truth.
But what about her? What did she do wrong?
Was it wrong for her to like him? Was it wrong for her to want to take care of him?
Right now, she wasn't angry with Ye Fan. She was angry with herself.
When she thought of the two of them parting ways starting tomorrow, Yue Hong Ji's tears fell like a broken string of pearls, trickling down her face.
Her shoulders trembled as she tried not to cry out loud.
"If you want to cry, then cry. Don't hold it in. It's very uncomfortable to hold it in." Seeing Akatsuki trying to hold back her tears, Ye Fan said with red eyes.
Wah...
Hearing Ye Fan say this, Akatsuki's psychological defense completely collapsed and she cried out in grief.
She released all the grievances, all the sadness, all the unfairness in her heart.
This time, Ye Fan did not stop Akatsuki.
Crying was also a kind of emotional catharsis. It was not a bad thing.
After crying enough and venting enough, her mood would be much better.
Akatsuki cried for a full two hours before she gradually calmed down.
At this time, her eyes were red and swollen. Like a pear blossom in the rain, she kept sobbing like a wronged child.
Ye Fan stood up and sat down next to Akatsuki. Then he took out a handkerchief and silently wiped away Akatsuki's tears.
"Are we... still... friends?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan while sobbing.
"We are friends, and best friends." Ye Fan replied while wiping away Akatsuki's tears.
"Re... really?" Akatsuki looked at Ye Fan with her red and swollen eyes and asked in a choked voice.
"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?" Ye Fan said with a forced smile.
To be honest, when Akatsuki cried, Ye Fan's heart also ached.
For Ye Fan, the thing he couldn't stand the most was separation.
Ever since he was young, his father, Ye Kong, had given him many small gifts.
Zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone. From big horses to small clay figurines and slingshots, he had carefully stored all of these things and never wanted to throw them away. Over time, his things had accumulated into an entire warehouse.
In his eyes, these things were his companions, his friends. Not a single one could be missing, even if it was an ordinary clay figurine.
If he was like this for objects, then what was more for Akatsuki who had risked her life to save him and was deeply in love with him!
Akatsuki used her sleeve to wipe away her tears and didn't say anything.
"Come, eat something." Ye Fan said as he handed the pheasant to Akatsuki.
Akatsuki choked with sobs and nodded her head. She took the pheasant from Ye Fan.
No matter what, the two of them were still friends. Ye Fan didn't say goodbye to her.
This made Akatsuki feel a bit comforted.
Two hours later, Akatsuki and Baihu both fell asleep.
Akatsuki slept soundly on Ye Fan's thigh. Baihu curled up in Ye Fan's embrace and let out a sweet snoring sound.
The two of them had been tossing and turning for most of the night. They were frightened and frightened and were already exhausted.
