"Miss Shu, do you still remember our fifteen-year agreement?"

Shu Yaoyao nodded: "Of course I remember, but you should stop calling me girl all the time! It sounds weird."

"Then what are you shouting?" Ji Yu asked.

"You can call me Senior Sister, or... Sister Shu." Shu Yaoyao said the last sentence and paused obviously.

It seems like he is thinking of some heartless little brat.

"Sister Shu." Ji Yu called out sweetly quickly.

Shu Yaoyao felt a little embarrassed when she called her.

"Are you planning on leaving today?"

Ji Yu nodded.

"Then I'll go ask for leave from my master. You wait for me for a moment." After saying that, Shu Yaoyao flew towards the academy.

Ji Yu waited for about another ten minutes and saw Shu Yaoyao coming back, but there was another person following him.

"What is this?" Ji Yu asked.

Shu Yaoyao introduced coldly: "This is my junior sister, Mingwei."

Ji Yu didn't recognize her at first, but after looking at her several times, he finally recognized Ming Wei.

The arrogance and domineering attitude he had shown before faded away, and now he looked a bit like a Taoist monk with an immortal demeanor.

"What are you looking at!" Ming Wei shouted angrily.

Tsk, I ruined it as soon as I opened my mouth.

"This is an agreement we made beforehand. If you insist on bringing one more person, I can't stop you. But if she really encounters any danger on the way, I won't help her."

Ji Yu thought about it and reminded the two of them.

"I am in the late Jindan stage, I don't need your help!!" When Ming Wei said this, he looked like a lion with its fur standing on end.

Ji Yu released a little bit of his pressure and said calmly: "Not much, just one realm higher than you."

Feeling the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul Realm, Ming Wei couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Shu Yaoyao actually didn't want to bring Mingwei along. After all, Mingwei was known for her spoiled brag. She couldn't stand hardships on the road and was prone to complain.

But what she could do was to be surrounded by her biased mother, who used the fact that Elder Ming accepted her as his disciple to morally blackmail her.

She finally brought Mingwei with her.

"More people means more strength. I won't hold you back." Ming Wei promised.

Ji Yu glanced at her coldly and threatened: "If you do anything weird on the way, don't blame me for abandoning you."

Ji Yu was trying to give her a warning.

Mingwei thought of the great opportunity her father had reminded her of, and finally swallowed her anger.

Mingwei behaved a little too obediently along the way, which was even a little inconsistent with her previous personality.

It took three days to reach Yuzhou, and Mingwei didn't cause any trouble.

Yuzhou is close to the sea, and according to the instructions on the map, the location of the so-called secret place should be on the island.

In order to avoid fatigue caused by a long-distance flight, Ji Yu directly rented a boat, and there happened to be helpers on the boat who could show them the way.

Due to the long period of time, many landforms have changed significantly. The people searched on the sea for ten days before they determined the general direction.

But that night, Ji Yu and Shu Yaoyao were tied up.

Ji Yu opened his eyes and saw Ming Wei and a group of male cultivators in the dim cabin, showing off their might in front of him.

"Yaoyao, wake up." Ji Yu's elbow kept touching Yaoyao beside him.

"Don't waste your energy. We've added some special ingredients to tonight's dinner. She won't wake up so soon." The middle-aged man in the lead stared at the two of them with a scrutinizing look.

Ji Yu then remembered dinner. Since they could land on the island tomorrow, the captain and the crew prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Because Ji Yu had been on the boat for too long, he felt like vomiting when he smelled the fish, so he didn't even eat two bites.

But Yaoyao did drink a lot of alcohol, no wonder he hasn't woken up yet.

"Mingwei, we haven't made things difficult for you along the way! Why do you want to join forces with outsiders to kill us?" Ji Yu said this with gritted teeth.

"Wait a moment! When today's protagonist comes, you will know clearly." While Ming Wei was speaking, his fingers had already touched Ji Yu's mask.

"Let me see what kind of face is hidden under this mask?" Ming Wei was about to use his hand to remove the mask while speaking.

Fortunately, Ji Yu used some secret method to make the mask, and her skills were still limited, so she should not be able to take it off.

With several of them as lackeys, Ji Yu carefully reviewed what happened today.

First of all, those men must have been prepared early in the morning. Even I don’t know where the secret place is.

So how did they predict their location and prepare a boat on the seashore in advance?

Unless they already knew everything, it means that perhaps the person behind Mingwei has awakened the memories of his past life.

And this person is most likely the male protagonist.

Thinking of this, Ji Yu couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.

"Yaoyao, Yaoyao, wake up."

The rope that tied Ji Yu was probably a magical weapon. Otherwise, an ordinary rope would not be able to control a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

There was no other way, Ji Yu had to bite Yaoyao's exposed skin with his mouth, trying to wake her up with the pain.

Thanks to Ji Yu's unremitting efforts, Shu Yaoyao, who was staring at two bright teeth marks on her wrist, finally woke up.

"What's going on?" Shu Yaoyao was also confused.

Ji Yu lowered his head and whispered, "Raise your hands, I'll help you untie the ropes on your hands."

"Your hands are tied too, how are you going to untie them?" Although Shu Yaoyao said this, she still raised her hands obediently.

The next second she knew how Ji Yu solved it. She only felt the boy's chin and half of the mask rubbing against the skin on her wrist.

The beads of sweat on Ji Yu's forehead slid down his chin into Yaoyao's palm.

Ji Yu took a long time to untie the rope on his hands.

Just when Shu Yaoyao was about to untie Ji Yu, the cabin door suddenly opened.

A strange middle-aged man walked in from outside, along with several other crew members they knew.

Ji Yu found the man in the lead very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

Just when Ji Yu hadn't figured out who the man was, the leading man spoke.

"Shu Yaoyao, when you broke off the engagement, did you ever think about the outcome you're facing now?" The man's voice was a little defiant.

After hearing these words, Ji Yu guessed the man's identity. He turned out to be the male protagonist.

But in the original book, there is a sentence that describes the male protagonist as being 200 years old, but still a graceful young man.

But is this middle-aged man in front of me with an untidy beard and even a little fat really the male protagonist?

It seems that cultivation can really bring about huge changes in a person.

"This man must be your lover, right?" Liu Chen pointed at Ji Yu and asked with disdain on his face.

Shu Yaoyao snorted coldly, not wanting to waste time talking to him. She was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to successfully take down this group of people and get out of this situation unscathed.
