Chapter 25 Penglai (Part 4) The one chasing me is actually from Penglai...
After hearing Luo Yin's words, Chi Wanyin couldn't help but say, "This barrier was originally set up by the Penglai Island Lord, and the people chasing me are also from Penglai."
Luo Yin paused for a moment, "Why is this happening?"
Chi Wanyin didn't want to say much, after all, she didn't want to involve Luo Yin, but Luo Yin kept asking her, and she felt helpless, so she briefly told him about her discovery of Tan Yinxiao's secret during her recovery.
She thought of Ye Tinghe again, and thought to herself: I wonder how Elder Ye is doing now.
Luo Yin naturally had never heard of such a thing. After all, a powerful cultivator among the righteous ones would actually want to practice evil magic to resurrect the dead.
After she finished healing Chi Wanyin, she stood up, put on her veil, and said, "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chi. I will help you with this matter. However, your injuries are too severe, so you still need to recuperate for a while."
Chi Wanyin frowned, "Then I'm afraid it's too late."
Luo Yin could only sigh upon seeing this and took out a wooden box from his storage bag. Inside the box lay a pill.
"This pill was given to me by my senior master. It will take effect immediately after taking it, and your spiritual power will be restored immediately. However, the backlash after the effect of the medicine wears off will be extremely severe." Luo Yin said as he handed over the wooden box and waited for her to make a choice.
Chi Wanyin swallowed the pill without hesitation. As Luo Yin had predicted, spiritual energy instantly filled her body. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Luo. I owe you a favor. If I'm still alive after today, please come find me at Yantian Sect."
She had already summoned her peach wood sword and was about to head back to the sacred tree when she heard Luo Yin say, "Why bother thanking me? Back in the Vast Sea Secret Realm, we were friends who risked our lives together. A pill is nothing."
Seeing Chi Wanyin walking away, Luo Yin walked towards the edge of the Penglai Island barrier. The barrier did not seem to reject her, and Luo Yin got out easily.
At this time, a misty drizzle began to fall from the sky. Luo Yin took out the umbrella and opened it. She stretched out her non-umbrella hand to touch the raindrops and murmured to herself, "Chi Wanyin, I'm looking forward to seeing who will win this round."

When Chi Wanyin returned to the sacred tree, she tried her best to hide her breath along the way. When she found a good hiding place, she heard the voices of two guards.
"The people guarding the Yantian Sect are so boring. Her companions will definitely not come back. The island master is really worrying too much." A guard looked a little bored.
Another guard said, "You better be careful. If the person inside isn't restrained by the island owner, how can we guard him?"
"I know, I know." The guard responded impatiently.
After hearing this, Chi Wanyin understood. Perhaps Elder Ye was subdued by Tan Yinxiao, so there were only two guards here.
After thinking for a while, she took out the medicinal powder that Liu Qianhe had given her and blew it at the two guards. After all, they were not cultivators, so the two of them fainted immediately.
Chi Wanyin took the opportunity to sneak into the place where Ye Tinghe was imprisoned. Ye Tinghe was still struggling to break free from the restraints of the Immortal Binding Chains. Seeing her coming, his eyes lit up and said, "Quickly untie me."
Chi Wanyin pulled out the peach wood sword, but the Immortal Binding Chain was too strong, and the peach wood sword could not do anything to it.
The next moment, Chi Wanyin felt an extremely powerful pressure coming towards her. Under this powerful pressure, Chi Wanyin had to kneel on one knee.
"I didn't expect that you actually came." Perhaps because he was in a very good mood, Tan Yinxiao had a faint smile on his lips.
Ye Tinghe also knew that Tan Yinxiao was using her as bait, and hurriedly said to Chi Wanyin, "Run."
Tan Yinxiao raised his hand calmly, and saw another immortal chain that also tied up Chi Wanyin.
Faced with the absolute gap in strength, Chi Wanyin could only feel despair.
Tan Yinxiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, as I said before, I won't kill you. On the contrary, you should feel honored because of what you are about to witness."
But in the blink of an eye, the two of them were in the secret room of the study with Tan Yinxiao, and Chi Wanyin saw the mermaid woman lying on the bed again.
Perhaps the formation was already set up and all that was left was waiting. Tan Yinxiao was extremely patient at this moment. "This is my senior sister. She was extremely talented, but unfortunately, she died protecting me in that natural disaster a thousand years ago."
Her tone was calm, but her expression was no longer as calm as before. "My senior sister gave me her mermaid pearl before she died. Mermaids have the ability to live forever, and her body remained intact after her death. It is also thanks to this pearl that I am able to maintain my current appearance."
Seeing her face gradually turning crazy, Chi Wanyin couldn't help but ask, "Resurrecting the dead is against the will of heaven. Aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment for doing this?"
Tan Yinxiao laughed wildly, seemingly meaninglessly. "As long as Senior Sister can survive, what does heavenly punishment matter? My life was originally given to me by Senior Sister's mermaid pearl. Now that she has taken it, it can be considered as returning it to its rightful owner."
Seeing that the formation ceremony was about to end, Tan Yinxiao hurriedly took out the mermaid pearl from his body and gave it to the mermaid in front of him who seemed to be sleeping.
In just a moment, the vitality in her body quickly faded, her black hair quickly turned white, and wrinkles appeared on her face, but Tan Yinxiao still smiled brightly.
Meanwhile, the merman woman who had been sleeping on the cold jade bed slowly woke up. She had eyes as blue as the ocean water. Seeing the aged Tan Yinxiao, she seemed very surprised, "Ah Xiao?!"
Tan Yinxiao knew that the mermaid pearl had been integrated into her body for many years. Now that she had lost the pearl, she would probably quickly become weak and die, but she did not regret it.
"Senior Sister... I'm afraid I can't do it anymore. Penglai Island will depend on you in the future. You are much more comprehensible than me. I believe you can lead Penglai Island to a better future..." Tan Yinxiao said intermittently. Anyone could see that she was now like a candle in the wind.
The immortal chains that bound the two of them naturally loosened. Ye Tinghe was the first to break free. She looked at Tan Yinxiao and said, "Because of your selfish desires, I'm afraid Penglai will incur heaven's punishment tonight."
The blue-eyed mermaid then looked at the two of them. She took the initiative to untie Chi Wanyin and said, "I'm sorry, both of you. This is all because of me and Axiao. Even if I die, I, Fuyao, will protect Penglai."
Ye Tinghe frowned as she looked at the half-dead Tan Yinxiao. She really couldn't understand how Tan Yinxiao's obsession could support her for a thousand years. However, she was also angry but had no place to vent it, after all, he was almost dead.
Chi Wanyin also stood up at this time, "Senior Fuyao, I am willing to fight against the heavenly punishment with you."
Seeing her like this, Ye Tinghe had no choice but to say, "Okay, count me in."
The mermaid named Fuyao folded her fins and tail and transformed into an ordinary human. She helped the dying Tan Yinxiao onto the cold jade bed. She sighed and said, "Thank you both."
The three of them left the secret room together. Tan Huiyan, who was guarding outside, saw this and naturally knew what was happening, "The island owner..."
Fuyao then said, "Now is not the time to be sad. I'm afraid that the heavenly punishment will come to Penglai soon. The two distinguished guests from Yantian Sect and I will fight against it together. We will have no time to care about the people on Penglai Island. Master of Yingzhou Island, you need to take them to a safe place."
Tan Huiyan sighed, "Yes, the island master once told me to follow your arrangements."
When the three of them left the sacred tree, a storm was about to come outside.
In just a moment, the first heavenly punishment arrived. It was a bright yellow lightning that seemed to be coming straight towards Fuyao.
Ye Tinghe was not surprised at all. After all, she was a dead person resurrected, which was unacceptable to heaven.
However, she attracted the divine punishment and took the blow. This blow alone left countless fine wounds on her body.
"This heavenly punishment is really..." Ye Tinghe couldn't help but hiss.
Fuyao sent spiritual energy to her to heal her wounds. Ye Tinghe was enveloped in aqua-blue spiritual energy. "Let me do it."
The next heavenly punishment was much more powerful than the previous one. Fuyao was hit by this heavenly punishment and was covered with wounds. If she was hit by one more, her body that had just awakened would completely collapse.
However, what the three did not expect was that the next punishment was not directed at anyone, but directly attacked the mist supporting Penglai. But at this time, Fuyao and Ye Tinghe were both seriously injured and could no longer stop it.
Seeing this, Ye Tinghe shouted, "This heavenly punishment is intended to sink Penglai. We can't let it happen again."
The next divine punishment seemed to be ready in the sky. Fuyao had originally decided to stop it even if it meant death, but she didn't expect that Chi Wanyin would block her with a sword this time.
For a cultivator of her level, resisting the heavenly punishment would be tantamount to suicide. Ye Tinghe rushed forward regardless of everything. After all, if her senior sister's disciple died, she would probably be to blame.
However, the miserable situation Chi Wanyin had imagined did not occur. The golden flower-like magic weapon above her head formed a protective shield, blocking most of the damage for her.
Even so, Chi Wanyin was still seriously injured, and the magic weapon was completely shattered after withstanding the attack. Ye Tinghe caught the falling Chi Wanyin, but the fragments of the magic weapon fell into the sea.
"You're so lucky." Ye Tinghe couldn't help but sigh while hugging Chi Wanyin.
Unfortunately, Chi Wanyin could not hear Ye Tinghe's sigh at this time. She only felt that she was trapped in the same situation after death as in her previous life.
That empty voice echoed in my mind again, "Fuyao was brought back to life by a forbidden technique. The punishment was meant to take her life, but I didn't expect you to block it."
After a moment, the voice sighed again, "Forget it, it's all fate."
When Chi Wanyin heard this voice, she couldn't help but say, "Senior, my rebirth..."
"Hush." The voice seemed to be neither hurried nor slow. "It's not appropriate for you to know about this matter now. This is for your own good. We will meet when the time comes."

In the secret room of Mingluantai, Song Qingtang slowly opened her eyes. She had broken through to the Golden Core Realm.
The letter in her hand seemed to be engulfed by flames after she finished reading it, and slowly disappeared from her fingertips.
However, the sub-parasite wrapped around the chest was very agitated at the moment. Something must have happened to the host of the mother parasite.
Song Qingtang stood up, picked up the passing water in front of her, and walked out of the secret room. When the immortal servants saw her, they hurried over and said, "Master, you are out of seclusion."
However, when the immortal servants caught a glimpse of her expression, they fell silent again.
"Stay here well." Song Qingtang said.
She stepped onto the Sword of Flowing Water floating in the air and quickly disappeared from the sight of the immortal servants.
