After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the Auspicious Clouds under Ye Fan's feet began to gradually slow down.
This place was already several hundred li away from Yangzhou. According to the brothel keeper, the donkey-riding old man should not be far away.
Ye Fan mobilized his five senses to search for the old man's aura while asking Akatsuki, who was in his arms, "Do you have any impression of that donkey-riding old man?"
Akatsuki nodded.
"What happened?" Ye Fan asked Akatsuki, "With your cultivation, how did you fall into his hands?"
Akatsuki's saber technique was outstanding, and she had recently obtained spiritual qi cultivation. Ordinary experts simply could not get close to her.
"I fell into the old man's trap." Akatsuki's eyes flashed with tears as she sobbed, "After I arrived in Yangzhou, I met the old man in a noodle house. The old man was carrying a large gourd on his back and was riding a white donkey. His appearance was extremely strange. I was wholeheartedly carrying out my mission and wanted to quickly return to the Eastern Sea to wait for you after I finished my task. I did not pay much attention to this person. Who would have thought that the old man would take the initiative to come up to me and ask for directions. Before I could finish listening to him, a strange fragrance came out of his mouth. After I smelled this strange fragrance, the world began to spin. I tried to use my spiritual qi to force the strange fragrance out of my body, but it did not work at all. In the end, I directly fainted, and I do not remember the rest of the matter."
Ye Fan frowned after hearing this.
Initially, it seemed that the old man had used an extremely powerful sleeping incense technique, which was why Akatsuki had fallen into his trap.
Even Akatsuki was unable to use her spiritual qi to force the strange fragrance out of her body. It seemed that this old man's witchcraft was not ordinary.
"Put me down," Akatsuki said to Ye Fan in his arms, "I should be able to stand up now."
"You'd better lie down." Ye Fan looked down at Akatsuki and said, "You're not wearing anything right now. If you stand up, you'll be exposed."
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Akatsuki realized that she wasn't wearing anything underneath, and Ye Fan was using his black robe to cover her body.
Akatsuki's face turned red from shame.
She had never been so close to Ye Fan before.
"After we find that old man, find a place where no one is around and put on your clothes." Ye Fan looked up into the distance and said, "After we get rid of him, we will return to the Eastern Sea."
Akatsuki in his arms nodded obediently.
With Ye Fan by her side, it seemed that all problems could be easily solved.
"I've troubled you again this time." Akatsuki said softly to Ye Fan.
"You don't have to be so polite with me." Ye Fan replied.
Akatsuki pursed her lips and didn't speak.
"Why did you go out on a mission alone? Didn't Matsumoto Takeyoshi send someone with you? "Ye Fan asked Akatsuki.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi originally wanted Fujita Takeshi to go with me, but I declined." Akatsuki said.
"Why?" Ye Fan lowered his head and asked Akatsuki, "Fujita Takeshi is meticulous and his cultivation is unfathomable. If you were to go on a mission with him, you wouldn't have to face this disaster."
"He's not my partner, you are." Akatsuki lowered her head and whispered.
Ye Fan was stunned after hearing this.
"Silly girl." After a long time, Ye Fan raised his head and looked into the distance.
Akatsuki blushed and didn't speak again.
From the time they met until now, this was the first time Ye Fan called her a silly girl.
"What mission did you go to Yangzhou to do? Did you finish it?" Ye Fan changed the topic and asked Akatsuki.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi sent me to Yangzhou to look for someone, but I still haven't found him." Akatsuki said.
"Look for someone? Who are you looking for? "Ye Fan asked.
"Red Dust Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Miss Ruyan." Akatsuki replied.
"Red Dust Pavilion? Ruyan? "Ye Fan frowned and asked.
He had never heard of the Red Dust Pavilion, let alone Miss Ruyan.
"Yes." Akatsuki nodded and said, "This Miss Ruyan had an extremely difficult life. When she was thirteen, she was sold to a brothel. Because she refused to receive customers, she was hung up and beaten by the brothel owner for three days and three nights. When she was on the verge of death, she was rescued by a mysterious Daoist nun. Ten years later, this person returned to the brothel and stared at the brothel owner until she bled to death. Later on, she created the Red Dust Pavilion by herself and specially took in those women who had lost their way in the mortal world. It is said that in every brothel, there are people from the Red Dust Pavilion. I heard that this Miss Ruyan's cultivation is extremely high. Her Heavenly Maiden Scattering Blossoms is unparalleled. Her Four Protectors, Mei, Lan, Ju, and Zhu, are not only devastatingly beautiful, but also have great skills and cultivation. "
"Why did Matsumoto Takeyoshi send you to find her?" Ye Fan frowned and asked Akatsuki, "Could it be that he wants to ask her to help find the Nine Cauldrons?"
"I don't know about this." Akatsuki said, "Matsumoto Takeyoshi only told me to find her and invite her to the Eastern Sea to meet him."
"Did you find her?" Ye Fan asked.
"No." Akatsuki shook her head and said, "I investigated openly and secretly for two days, but I didn't have the slightest clue."
"That Ruyan Pavilion Master must be an extraordinary woman with a strong temperament. How could she easily appear to meet you?" Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi already knew that she wouldn't appear so easily, so he gave me a silver bracelet. He said that as long as I wore this silver bracelet and walked around the brothels of Yangzhou City, someone from the Red Dust Pavilion would take the initiative to find me." Akatsuki said to Ye Fan.
"You did as he said?" Ye Fan asked.
Akatsuki nodded.
"The people from the Red Dust Pavilion didn't appear?" Ye Fan asked again.
"I don't know." Akatsuki shook her head and said, "After I wore the silver bracelet around the brothels of Yangzhou City, I was knocked unconscious by that donkey-riding old man. Right now, that silver bracelet, my Red Princess Saber, and the Crown Prince's jade pendant are all missing. I don't know where they are, but they should still be in that old man's hands."
Ye Fan's expression became serious.
The saber could be forged again, and the silver bracelet could be lost, but the Crown Prince's jade pendant had to be found!
The power of that jade pendant was too great, and it could even mobilize the army of the imperial court!
If that item fell into the hands of evil people, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Ah … Ah …
Just as Ye Fan was worrying about whether the jade pendant was still in the old man's hands, he suddenly heard a few donkey-like sounds!
At the same time, Ye Fan also sensed a spiritual aura!
This aura was exactly the same as the aura from the yellow talisman in his sleeve!
After capturing the old man's aura, Ye Fan focused his vision and looked at the source of the spiritual aura a hundred miles away!
With his sharp vision, the scene of a hundred miles away was reflected in his eyes!
On a mountain path in the distance, a white-haired, skinny old man was riding a donkey slowly on the mountain path!
The old man was carrying an apricot yellow gourd, which was more than three feet tall, and he was riding a pure white donkey. In the middle of the night, it was very eerie!
Especially the donkey, which was snow-white, had blood-red eyes, two knife-like ears, and four pure black hooves. It was even more eerie than the old man!
"Hong Ji, hold on tight, I've found that old man." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki, who was in his arms, as he quickly urged the Auspicious Clouds under his feet to fly in the direction of the old man on the donkey!
Akatsuki wrapped her arms tightly around Ye Fan's neck. Her face was full of anger, and her almond-shaped eyes were narrowed as she gritted her teeth!
How could she not be angry when her enemy was right in front of her!
The cries of the Blood-eyed White Donkey alerted the old man, who was humming a tune while riding on it!
He frowned and turned his head to look at the starry sky behind him!
Who would have thought that the old man would be so shocked when he looked at the starry sky!
He saw that in the sky above the starry sky, a white starry light was descending at high speed towards him. It was so fast that it was unbelievable!
The old man was not an ordinary person. Seeing that the other party was not friendly, the old man quickly turned around and rode the donkey upside down like Zhang Guo Lao!
He held the huge gourd on his back in his hand and pulled out the plug on the gourd. Then, he aimed the mouth of the gourd directly at the white starry light that was descending from the sky!
Buzz …
As the old man drew a few lines on the mouth of the gourd, the mouth of the gourd suddenly shone with golden light!
Pak!
When the gourd was completely filled with golden light, the old man slapped the bottom of the gourd with one hand!
Whoosh …
Countless dazzling rays of golden light shot out from the gourd, shooting straight into the sky like a rain of golden light!
Tens of thousands of rays of light and thousands of auspicious clouds shot out at the same time. It was so dazzling that it was like the sun in the sky!
Tens of thousands of golden lights shot out in all directions at an extremely fast speed. Soon, the white starry light was shrouded in them!
The dazzling golden lights lit up the whole of Ye Kong instantly. It was so beautiful!
Pak!
After using the tens of thousands of golden lights to cover the white starry light, the old man slapped the bottom of the gourd again!
Whoosh …
The golden lights that shot out from the gourd instantly merged!
Buzz …
The tens of thousands of golden lights merged into a three-inch-thick golden light pillar!
"Hehehe …" When he saw this, the old man with the gourd in his hand began to laugh strangely, revealing a mouth full of white and sharp teeth.
The white starry light had been cut into dust by the tens of thousands of golden lights that shot out from the gourd!
The old man who was riding the donkey laughed as he kept the golden lights back into the gourd. Then, he lifted his leg and turned around, ready to continue his journey.
However, when he turned around, the scene in front of him shocked him so much that he almost fell off the back of the donkey!
A handsome man in a white robe with silver hair was standing in the middle of the winding road not far from him, staring at him coldly!
A snow-white fox with a vermilion forehead sat on the young man's shoulder. In his arms was a woman wrapped in a beautiful black robe.
And this woman was none other than the Japanese beauty that he had sold to Warm Fragrance Pavilion for two hundred thousand taels of silver a few days ago with his evil magic!
"Hong Ji, is that him?" Ye Fan stared at the old man and asked Akatsuki who was in his arms.
Akatsuki looked at the old man and buried her head in Ye Fan's arms, sobbing softly.
