Song Yan gazed at the man before her. He was dressed in white, his black hair flowing like a waterfall. Although a mask concealed his face, it could not hide his ethereal and otherworldly aura. He stood before her, his white robes billowing in the wind, his figure appearing as clear as the moon after a storm, or a jade tree in full bloom.
Song Yan was inwardly amazed by the elegant demeanor of the white-clad man before her.
"Senior, may I ask your name? I, Song Yan, will come to express my gratitude!" Song Yan said, bowing to the man in front of her.
“My surname is Jin,” said Ayao in white.
"Song Yan greets Senior Jin," Song Yan said with a smile.
"May I ask which school or sect Senior Jin belongs to? This junior will certainly ask my father to properly thank you, Senior," Song Yan said with a smile.
"I am but a rogue cultivator, so there's no need for thanks," said the white-robed A Yao with the air of a master. In her previous life, she had cultivated to the Immortal Emperor realm, so she was already a master! Although her strength had regressed, she could still convincingly play the role of a master senior.
Just then, streaks of rainbows shot down from the sky, carrying both men and women dressed in the attire of the Glazed Tile Sect.
Ayao in white said, "They've come to see you, haven't they?"
Song Yan nodded.
Ayao in white said, "Until we meet again."
With that, it moved and flew away into the distance.
"senior--"
Song Yan wanted to keep her, but saw the white-clad figure fluttering away and disappearing into the green hills and clear waters.
After flying a hundred feet away, Baiyi Ayao turned back to look at Song Yan. Her divine sense saw her standing above the water, with a pretty face and a graceful figure.
Ayao thought to herself: You treated me well in my past life, so in this life I'm going to ruin your marriage with Lu Yunli no matter what!
The people from the Glazed Tile School arrived and surrounded Song Yan.
"Young Miss, Young Miss, are you alright?!"
"Senior sister, are you alright?"
Song Yan couldn't have been without guards. She was searching for treasure in a cave when she triggered a formation and was teleported away alone, which is why she encountered danger.
"I'm fine!" Song Yan said.
"Senior sister, who was that person just now...?" The one who spoke was Ye Chong, Song Yan's junior brother. Ye Chong had a handsome face and a slender figure. He looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, and his cultivation level was currently at the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Song Yan smiled as she recalled Senior Jin in his flowing white robes and said, "That was Senior Jin. He just saved me and then left."
"Which school or sect is he a master from? We really need to thank him properly," one of Song Yan's junior sisters asked curiously.
"I don't know. He said he was a rogue cultivator, but I don't know if he's lying," Song Yan murmured, gazing in the direction where the white-robed A Yao had left.
"Senior sister, it's so good that you're alright!" Ye Chong breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Song Yan safe and sound.
Song Yan smiled and left with the people from the Glazed Tile Sect. While traveling, she contacted her younger brother, Song Ran, using a communication talisman. Suddenly, she thought of her fiancé, Lu Yunli. After entering the secret realm, she had sent him many communication talismans, but he hadn't responded to a single one. Did he genuinely not receive them, or did he simply not care?
Song Yan was furious when she recalled his attitude towards her.
That guy only had eyes for his eighth sister; he didn't care about her at all.
————
Deep cliffs and treacherous peaks, a flying boat glides between two peaks. Two figures stand before the boat: a young woman in purple stands against the wind, her beauty flawless; beside her stands a young man, holding a folding fan, his bearing refined and elegant.
"Ayao, do you know that Feng Chu from before?" Xu Fengzhi asked.
Ayao replied dismissively, "I guess so!"
“He doesn’t seem to be from the Southern Region,” Xu Fengzhi said. He observed the moves Feng Chu used and felt they didn’t belong to the style of cultivators from the Southern Region.
“That guy is from the Eastern Region,” Ayao said.
"Which sect?" Xu Fengzhi asked.
Ayao thought for a moment and said, "They should be rogue cultivators now!"
"A rogue cultivator?" Xu Fengzhi found it hard to believe that someone like this was a rogue cultivator. But a rogue cultivator, great! Rogue cultivators can be recruited!
"You know he's a rogue cultivator, so why don't you just recruit him into your Lu family?" Xu Fengzhi asked.
Ayao chuckled: "That guy won't join any faction."
Although she didn't know about Feng Chu's experiences in his previous life, she felt that given his personality, it would be difficult for him to serve any faction; even the Sword God Xie Chen couldn't tame him. No…
It seems like we've tamed him!
It should be said that even the Sword God Xie Chen had a hard time taming him.
Xu Fengzhi looked at A Yao's profile, his doubts growing. He added, "When you fought him, you made such a commotion. I was really worried for you, afraid that you would break through the first level and run to the second level."
“Those old guys in the Void Refinement stage were even more troublesome before. There are weak points in the first and second layers of the secret realm. We were just unlucky before, and our cave happened to be in a weak point. That's why I was able to break through it with one palm. That guy pulled us down before, but he probably doesn't have the strength to do it again.”
“Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have been able to get you out of here,” Ayao analyzed.
"From what you've said, that thing is incredibly terrifying. To be honest, knowing that such a monster exists makes me feel like a shadow is hanging over my heart while I'm in this secret realm," Xu Fengzhi said, frowning.
“What can we do? If word gets out, no one can seal him away, or even reinforce the seal. It might just cause more trouble. I can’t drive everyone out of the secret realm, nor can I close the entrance. We can only take it one step at a time,” Ayao said, spreading her hands.
Upon hearing this, Xu Fengzhi sighed, "Ayao, you have such a good attitude."
“Someone told me that if a problem can’t be solved immediately, it’s better to focus on other things first, and time might bring a turning point,” Ayao said with a smile.
Since she had no way to deal with the thing on the second level, she might as well focus her energy on plundering the treasures of this secret realm. Her clones were currently busy acquiring as many useful treasures as possible, and she had even prepared for the worst.
The airship continued flying forward, and after flying for several hours, a vast expanse of water appeared ahead.
This is a large lake.
The afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky, painting the clouds with particularly vibrant colors.
Standing atop the flying boat, Ayao gazed at the waters below. With a wave of her hand, an array plate appeared in her palm. Floating on the array plate were eighteen small flags.
Xu Fengzhi asked, puzzled, "Ayao, is there something here?"
Ayao said, "If there's nothing here, what am I doing here?"
With that, he threw the array plate, which emitted a beam of light. Small flags shot out in all directions, transforming into large flags that were planted on the mountains and rocks in all directions. The array plate flew into the sky and transformed into a huge purple-gold magic array. The array flags emitted beams of light, and the runes on the flags shimmered with golden light.
A massive purple light shield seemed to cover the entire world.
A massive Immortal-Locking Array has appeared here.
Such large-scale formations are rarely seen. Usually, it is difficult to set up such formations using array plates and array flags. It usually requires hundreds or thousands of high-level cultivators to work together.
