After Yi Shuihan left, Ye Fan unleashed his movement technique and passed through the clouds before descending toward the earthen city below.
Inside the earthen building, Akatsuki, who was wearing a crystal mask, was anxiously guarding the window as she looked up at the clouds above with an anxious expression.
Ye Fan had already been in the clouds for a while, and she didn't know how he was doing now.
His opponent was clearly a top-notch super powerful being, and if Ye Fan were to engage in a battle with him, it was still unknown whether he would win or lose.
Meanwhile, the woman with the surname Dong was the exact opposite of Akatsuki. Her eyes were wide with excitement as she looked at the torrential rain outside with an indescribable sense of elation in her heart.
It hadn't rained here for several months, so after this heavy rain, the dried up river would be filled with clean water, and the cracked earth would be moist and fertile again. Thus, the people in the city would be able to plant crops and grapes again.
Whoosh!
Just as the two women were rejoicing, Ye Fan's figure appeared out of thin air within the earthen building!
"I'm back," Ye Fan said as he sat down on a chair beside the table.
"Bufan -kun!" Akatsuki immediately turned around upon hearing Ye Fan's voice.
"Mr. Ye is back!" The woman with the surname Dong also immediately greeted Ye Fan.
She had already become completely accustomed to Ye Fan's elusive movement techniques.
Ye Fan nodded politely at the woman with the surname Dong.
"Please wait here, I'll go brew a pot of tea for you," the woman said as she quickly made her way downstairs.
She was no longer short of water, so of course she had to treat Ye Fan with the best tea.
"What, are you worried about me?" Ye Fan leaned back in his chair as he asked Akatsuki with a smile.
"I'm not worried about you," Akatsuki pursed her lips under the mask.
Ye Fan smiled and didn't say anything.
"How did it go? Did you find the divine cauldron? "Akatsuki sat on the chair beside Ye Fan and asked with concern.
"I found it." Ye Fan nodded.
"That's great!" Hearing Ye Fan say that he had found the divine cauldron, Akatsuki said happily.
"It went very smoothly this time. I did a lot of things." Ye Fan said as he roughly told Akatsuki how he used the Fire Kirin to enter the Spirit Flame Mountain to obtain the divine cauldron patterns, how he helped the scorpion essence to remove the poison, and how he obtained the Yazi Divine Scabbard and Phoenix Wing Blade.
Yue Hongji was dumbfounded as she listened with great interest.
She was shocked by the power of the Spirit Flame Mountain's flames, the miraculous abilities of the Fire Qilin, and even more shocked by the combination of the Yazi Sword Scabbard and the Frost Dragon Sword!
"Oh right, what did you find after you flew up to the clouds? Why did you take so long to come down?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"It's a long story." Ye Fan stopped smiling and told Akatsuki about meeting Yi Shuihan.
Of course, he did not tell Akatsuki about Jiu Ling, because this matter involved the secrets of heaven. If Akatsuki knew about this, it would not be good for anyone.
He only told Akatsuki that the three people who were killed knew about the clues to the three divine cauldrons, which was why they were killed.
"Could the murderer really be a descendant of the Great Song Imperial Family?" Akatsuki asked with a frown.
"It's possible, but it's not absolute." Ye Fan said, "The world is so big, and there are many experts who are hiding their strength. Whether or not this was done by that old man is still unknown."
"Before he finds out the real culprit, you must be careful. You must not let your guard down." Akatsuki said worriedly to Ye Fan, "He might come looking for you."
Ye Fan had already obtained the patterns of the Six Divine Cauldrons and knew the exact location of the Six Divine Cauldrons. Once the murderer knew about this, he would definitely come looking for him!
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Ye Fan replied.
Actually, Ye Fan did not take this matter seriously on the surface, but in reality, he was very nervous.
One had to know that he had two bells on him, the green bell that Xiao Zhao was guarding and the white bell that he was guarding!
Since the murderer had a way to find out that the three of them were the Bellkeepers, then it was only a matter of time before he found out the identities of himself and Xiao Zhao!
From now on, he had to be extremely vigilant and protect the safety of Xiao Zhao and the two bells with all his might.
"Now that the matter is done, when the rain stops, we will immediately return to the East Sea." Akatsuki said to Ye Fan.
"This place has already been dry for a few months. Yi Shuihan's rain will definitely continue for a while." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki, "We won't wait any longer. Let's return to the East Sea now."
As Ye Fan spoke, he took out a stack of gold leaves from his bosom and placed a few on the table.
However, after a brief hesitation, he placed the remaining stack of gold leaves on the table.
This woman was far away from her hometown, and she was an orphan and a widow. Her life was not easy. This stack of gold leaves was worth nearly a thousand taels of silver. It was enough for the mother and son to eat and wear for the rest of their lives.
"Leave now? In this kind of weather? "Akatsuki asked Ye Fan in surprise.
"This kind of weather doesn't affect the ability to ride the cloud, and you can hide your whereabouts. It's the most suitable weather for traveling." Ye Fan looked at Akatsuki and said, "Moreover, you should get used to this kind of weather. When you learn how to ride the cloud in the future, no matter what kind of weather, you will still be able to come and go freely, rain or shine."
After hearing Ye Fan's words, Akatsuki, who was under the mask, bit her lip lightly and did not speak.
She stood up from the chair, silently put the sword behind her back, and picked up Baihu.
"Let's go." As Ye Fan spoke, he came to Akatsuki's side and gently patted Akatsuki's shoulder. At the same time, he activated his spiritual power and used his body movement technique.
Whoosh!
The two figures instantly disappeared into thin air!
"Mr Ye, Miss Yue, try my hometown tea and see if it suits your taste …"
As the woman spoke, she carried the tea tray upstairs.
However, when she saw the empty living room and the stack of golden leaves on the table, the smile on the woman's face disappeared!
She hurriedly put down the tea tray and rushed to the window. Reaching out, she opened the window and looked up at the sky.
She saw that in the sky filled with lightning, thunder, and torrential rain, there was a translucent ball of light, braving the wind and rain, going against the wind at high speed!
Within the ball of light were Ye Fan and Akatsuki!
"Compassionate and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, please bless these two benefactors to be safe and sound, to live a long life, to turn misfortune into luck, and to turn misfortune into prosperity …"
The woman closed her eyes tightly, put her palms together, and murmured to herself, completely ignoring the wind and rain outside the window and drenching her clothes …
Whoosh …
The water-repelling ball of light that enveloped the two people and the fox instantly broke through the dark clouds filled with lightning and thunder, and arrived above the clouds filled with sunlight!
Whoosh …
After breaking through the clouds, the water-repelling ball of light turned into specks of light and dissipated.
Whoosh …
After the water-repelling ball of light dissipated, Ye Fan waved his sleeves, and the snow-white Auspicious Clouds quickly condensed under his feet, firmly supporting the two of them.
"Your spiritual energy cultivation has now reached a small success. When you go back, you can freely cultivate your spiritual energy," Ye Fan turned to look at Akatsuki and said, "With your aptitude, I think it will only take a few months for you to be able to fly in the air."
"Mm." Akatsuki nodded.
"It's already past noon, do you want to go eat something?" Ye Fan asked Akatsuki.
"I'm not hungry." Akatsuki shook her head and said.
"After arriving in the Western Region, you've been wearing the crystal mask and haven't eaten a single drop of water. Aren't you hungry?" Ye Fan asked.
"I didn't do anything, nor did I help you. How can I be hungry?" Akatsuki said.
"You're not hungry, but Xiao Zhao and I are." Ye Fan turned his head and said, "When we reach the Eastern Sea, make us something to eat."
"You're lying to me." Akatsuki said calmly.
"Lying to you? Why would I lie to you? "Ye Fan was stunned and asked Akatsuki.
"Did you forget? During the Demon Slaying Conference, you ate the Fiery Sun Jujube given to you by the Mountain God. You won't be hungry for half a year. "Akatsuki looked at Ye Fan and replied.
"I … I … I'm craving it. Is that okay?" Ye Fan was choked by Yue Hong Ji's words and almost didn't know how to reply.
"Are you afraid that after we separate in the future, you won't be able to eat the food I make?" Akatsuki asked faintly.
"This … this …" Ye Fan didn't know how to answer.
Akatsuki was extremely intelligent and immediately guessed his thoughts.
"Tell me, am I right?" Akatsuki turned her head and reached out to take off the crystal mask. Her eyes were red as she asked Ye Fan.
"Yes." Looking at the lovely Akatsuki, Ye Fan lowered his head and squeezed out a word.
"Okay, I'll make it for you." Akatsuki looked up and blinked, not letting her tears fall.
Ye Fan's words made her feel a trace of relief in addition to sadness.
This man still had feelings for her, even if he didn't say it.
Since he wanted to eat the food she made, then in the remaining time, she would do her best to take care of his food and shelter.
This way, even if they separated in the future, when he ate, he would think of her.
Baihu Xiao Zhao was quietly lying in Akatsuki's arms. Looking forward, its clear eyes gently blinked and its gaze was deep.
Even though it was a fox and couldn't speak, it was clearer than anyone else about the feelings between Akatsuki and Ye Fan.
The two people and one fox each had their own thoughts as they remained silent.
After half an hour, Ye Fan's Auspicious Clouds arrived above the Eastern Sea.
At this time, the Eastern Sea was calm and sparkling.
The sun shined on the surface of the sea, making it sparkle.
Several seagulls were chasing each other on the surface of the sea, letting out cheerful cries.
"We're here." Ye Fan broke the silence and said.
"Un." Akatsuki put the crystal mask back on her face and softly replied.
Ye Fan controlled the Auspicious Clouds and slowly descended to the deck of the warship.
"Hong Ji! Hong Ji! "
On the deck of the warship, a tall man wearing a red robe waved at Akatsuki in the air while excitedly shouting Akatsuki's name!
"Sen... Sen Yao..." Looking at the tall man below, Akatsuki was stunned at first, then she said to herself in surprise!
This man was none other than the last disciple of her second martial uncle, Yamamoto Sen Yao who was engaged to her!
