As expected, before a few days had passed, several respected elders in the sect invited Yun Ao back to the sect on the pretext of discussing important matters.
Qingyao stood in her own quarters, her eyes gazing through the window toward the mist-shrouded sect's meeting hall. A sneer curled her lips. "Xiaoyi, let's go join in the fun." With that, she flashed, transformed into a wisp of breeze, and swept toward the meeting hall.
The atmosphere in the meeting hall at that moment was as solemn as the dead silence before a storm. Several elders stared at Yun Ao with stern expressions, their eyes fixed on him.
"Yun Ao, as the future hope of the sect, your every move is related to the reputation and future of the sect. Na Yao's identity is unknown and her reputation is not good. It is really inappropriate for you to be with her." A white-bearded elder spoke first, his voice low and majestic.
Yun Ao frowned, clenched his fists, and spoke loudly, "Elder, A Yao saved me and all of you fellow disciples. She's not as bad as the rumors say. As for her identity and background, I will investigate thoroughly, but the relationship between her and me is by no means easily swayed."
"Ridiculous! How can you let your feelings ruin important things? You shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect, how can you ignore the overall situation because of your children's personal feelings?" Another elder slammed the table with his eyes wide open.
Just when the two sides were deadlocked, Qingyao appeared silently in the corner of the meeting hall, hidden in the shadows, watching everything quietly.
Yun Ao took a deep breath, looked around with a determined expression, and said, "My elders, I have made up my mind. I believe that A-Yao will handle her relationship affairs well while living up to the sect's expectations. If you ask me to give up on her because of some false rumors and prejudice, I will not obey your order."
Qingyao's heart trembled slightly when she heard Yun Ao's words, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up. However, she also knew that this storm had only just begun. How could those elders compromise so easily?
The elders looked at each other, with a hint of determination in their eyes. They seemed to have prepared their next plan, which was to completely separate Yun Ao and Qing Yao, even by any means necessary.
It is said that those highly respected elders actually came up with a plan and deliberately deceived Yun Ao, luring him into the mysterious forbidden area in the back mountain.
As soon as Yun Ao stepped into this forbidden area, the elders immediately used their magical powers to set up layers of powerful restrictions to imprison Yun Ao firmly.
It was not until this moment that Yun Ao suddenly realized that he had fallen into the trap carefully woven by the elders, but it was too late.
With his current abilities, facing the powerful formation in this forbidden area, it is like an ant trying to shake a tree, and there is no way to break it.
However, those ruthless elders did not give up. They gathered outside the forbidden area and used their own magic spells to continuously attack Yun Ao in the forbidden area. They had only one purpose this time - to make Yun Ao forget Qing Yao in his heart.
Under the impact of this surging magical power, Yun Ao felt unbearable pain all over his body, as if countless sharp blades were cutting his body.
He fell to the ground in pain, his body shaking involuntarily and letting out low groans. Despite this, Yun Ao still gritted his teeth, resisting the pain tightly and refusing to give in easily.
Strangely enough, these magical powers that were originally intended to erase Yun Ao's memory not only failed to achieve their goal, but instead accidentally stimulated the memory power that had been hidden in Yun Ao's body for a long time.
As time went by, scenes from the past began to emerge in Yun Ao's mind like a tide. He gradually recalled the beautiful moment when he first met Qingyao ten thousand years ago, and every detail of his acquaintance, understanding and even love with Qingyao.
Those memories that were once buried deep in my heart, like a flood that broke through a dam, broke free and could not be stopped.
Even the spiritual power that had been sealed for a long time gradually awakened at this moment. Just as Yun Ao was immersed in the memories of the past and gradually accepted the last part of the key memory, an accident suddenly occurred.
Because this sudden surge of powerful spiritual energy was too fierce, far exceeding the limit of Yun Ao's own endurance, it caused his meridians to become disordered and his blood and qi to flow backwards. In an instant, Yun Ao could no longer suppress the surging blood and qi in his body, and with a "puff" sound, he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
At that moment, a ray of light suddenly shot out from the forbidden area. Qingyao's figure slowly emerged, emanating a powerful aura. Qingyao looked at Yun Ao, then turned to the elders. "You so-called reputable and upright sects, today I will show you how ridiculous your prejudice and narrow-mindedness are." As soon as she finished speaking, Qingyao's hands swiftly formed complex spells. Mysterious rays of light emanated from her fingertips, dancing and interweaving in the air like nimble spirits. Instantly, these rays of light resonated with the layers of restrictions surrounding them, creating an extremely intense resonance.
As everyone watched in astonishment, the previously indestructible restraining force used to imprison Qingyao suddenly began to flow slowly, as if being pulled by some powerful force. In the blink of an eye, this restraining force surged towards Qingyao like a tide, and was completely absorbed into her body.
Then, Qingyao casually waved her sleeve, and a terrifying, devastating energy suddenly erupted. With a resounding "boom," the entire forbidden area's formation instantly collapsed, shattering into countless fragments. The elders who had been guarding the area flew away like kites with their strings cut.
When they landed, each of these elders was vomiting blood, their faces as pale as paper, clearly severely injured. However, Qingyao didn't give up. She flashed like a ghost, approaching one of the elders and looking down at him from above.
