Yun Xuchen's hands, clenched tightly behind his back, were so tight that veins bulged. It wasn't time to spill the beans yet; all he could do now was endure.
"It's getting late, you should go to bed early, Hall Master."
Yun Xuchen avoided Liang Meng's gaze, spoke hurriedly, and turned away.
"Hey. Where are you going?"
Liang Meng's hand was still raised on her head, rubbing it, and she looked at Yun Xuchen's back and asked in confusion.
Looking around, there was only one room, and judging from Yun Xuchen's expression, he had no intention of going back inside.
"There's a cave ahead. I'll rest there tonight. Hall Master, please rest early as well. We'll be back tomorrow."
After saying that, without waiting for Liang Meng to ask any more questions, he turned around and left quickly.
Poor hall master, sitting alone on the cold stone in the night, with a headache and a sour heart, and the person she likes doesn't like to stay by her side.
The truth made me cry out loudly. Is there anyone in this world more miserable than me?
It's not that people fail in love but succeed in business. Why is it that I fail miserably in love and even more miserably at work?
She was constantly being defeated and rescued. What kind of leader was she? There was no one more useless than her.
The next day, he returned to Hu Zhifeng and restored the appearance he and Hu Yi had exchanged.
Liang Meng and Yun Xuchen came back from their dream.
As to why Yunmeng Hall reopened, Yun Xuchen never explained it to Liang Meng.
But Liang Meng didn't care. If there was a mission, he would go. If there was no mission, he would just chase people in Yun Nian.
Looking at Liang Meng who was busy again in Yunnian, Yun Xuchen wondered with a headache whether his decision to close Yunmeng Hall was extremely wrong.
Otherwise, I could just reopen the business. At worst, I could just stay with Liang Meng and not let her get into any danger.
Yun Xuchen had not yet made a decision when something happened in the library.
In the library, apart from those tattered books, there was only one Lingyou.
Since something happened, it must be Lingyou's fault.
Lingyou escaped!
Liang Meng didn't understand the spirit race, let alone Ling You. Apart from knowing that he was the master of the spirit race and that Legend had once said something very impressive about him, Liang Meng knew nothing about Ling You.
So Liang Meng didn't find it particularly surprising that he had escaped. In her opinion, it was just a villain who had escaped.
When I watched TV dramas in the past, there was never a villain who was locked up from beginning to end.
It has to come out and do some damage before being destroyed. That's what makes the plot fit.
Liang Meng knew nothing about it, so he looked relaxed.
But for Yun Xuchen and Chuanqi who knew the inside story, it was simply unbelievable that Lingyou could escape from the library.
Legend was fine. The reason why he reacted so strongly to Lingyou's escape was entirely because Lingyou would attack his family's head.
Yun Xuchen was different. No one in Yunmeng Hall knew better than him how he had suppressed Lingyou.
In his opinion, escaping from the library was as difficult as ascending to heaven. Otherwise, Lingyou would not have been trapped in the library for thousands of years.
But now, Lingyou suddenly escaped inexplicably. The key is, how did he escape?
Lingyou escaped, Liang Meng was unaware of the dangers and continued to live happily all day. However, Yun Xuchen and Chuanqi knew Lingyou's purpose and danger.
Both of them unconsciously became alert and cautious. Yunmeng Hall naturally stopped opening its doors to welcome guests.
From the day Lingyou escaped, Yun Xuchen and Chuanqi's mission became to keep an eye on Liang Meng, just in case something unexpected happened.
I thought Lingyou had finally escaped and would need to recuperate. But Lingyou was so quick. In just a few days, Zhou Yuan's barrier was broken.
The demons and monsters of the Eldar race surged towards Zhou Yuan like waves. The beast spirits guarding the wilderness barrier rose up to kill the enemy.
Fortunately, the spirits sent some small Lou Luo to explore the way ahead, and those guarding the barrier were all the best fighters picked by Yun Xuchen from hundreds of miles away. Although the spirits were numerous, the beastmen still won easily.
After driving all the spirits out of Zhou Yuan, the beast spirits guarding the barrier worked quickly to repair the damaged barrier.
After that, there was no movement from the Eldar for a long time.
However, Yun Xuchen did not dare to let his guard down, and sent a message to the several beast spirits guarding the barrier, asking them to guard the border well.
There was another period of calm days, and then Liang Meng disappeared.
When Yun Xuchen and Chuanqi discovered this, they couldn't believe it. They never thought that the person would disappear out of thin air in Yunmeng Hall right under their noses.
"It's Lingyou." Yun Xuchen's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.
"Ling You? Did he escape and not return to the Ling Clan? Has he been hiding in Zhou Yuan?"
Yun Xuchen's eyes were bloodshot. He didn't answer Chuanqi's question, but turned and walked out. Chuanqi hurried to catch up.
After leaving Yunmeng Hall, Yun Xuchen walked towards Shuiniang's house.
Water Maiden? Could it be...
Before Chuanqi had time to think too much, he had already followed Yun Xuchen in.
After checking every house and finding nothing unusual, Yun Xuchen walked to the yard and stood facing the main hall, raising his arms in the air and chanting a spell quickly.
Suddenly, the entire courtyard was covered by dark clouds, becoming gray and hazy. Yun Xuchen waved his arms in front of his chest, then slapped them towards every room in the courtyard.
One room after another, Yun Xuchen looked carefully along his arm.
There was no abnormality found in the first few houses until the last one, which looked very small, like a room for storing miscellaneous items. When Yun Xuchen's arm swept over it, the originally gray house suddenly flashed with orange light.
Yun Xuchen and Chuanqi's expressions changed, and they quickly kicked open the door and walked in.
Apart from the dusty clutter, there was no trace of Liang Meng.
"What's going on? Where's the hall master?"
Chuanqi looked flustered and anxious, his hands unconsciously pulling at Yun Xuchen's sleeves.
Yun Xuchen still ignored him. He raised his arm and used his spiritual power again. After a while, Ling You's arrogant voice came out.
"Yun Xuchen, you didn't expect that. I told you long ago that I would definitely leave the library. Do you believe me this time?"
"I didn't leave before not because I couldn't, but because the person I was waiting for hadn't come yet."
At this point, Ling You smiled. Her voice was deep and magnetic, but Yun Xuchen felt extremely disgusted when he heard it.
"I'm sure you know who I'm talking about even without me telling you. For thousands of years, you're not the only one waiting for her. I'm waiting for her too."
Yun Xuchen had already clenched his fists after hearing this. If Ling You was in front of him at this moment, he would definitely tear him to pieces.
Xiao Meng is his, and Lingyou actually dares to do that!
Regardless of Yun Xuchen's anger, Ling You's voice continued.
"Now she's back. I want to take her away. She's best with me, and you'll only bring her harm."
