"Senior, you are joking. How could I be such a villain who would take advantage of others' misfortune..."
Ye Fan smiled awkwardly and didn't mention this matter again.
When Ye Fan walked into the cave, the purple-clothed girl who was imprisoned in the cave immediately smiled.
As the little princess of the Ji family, Ji Ziyue's appearance is naturally excellent, but compared to her appearance, what is more eye-catching is her temperament.
Especially when Ji Ziyue smiles, her eyes move around, she looks bright and beautiful, and a small dimple appears on her left cheek. She looks very playful and charming, like the bright white moonlight, which makes people unforgettable.
Seeing Ye Fan returning, a smile appeared on the girl's face.
But soon, the smile was restrained and he looked at Ye Fan angrily.
"Where have you been this time? You left me here alone. Aren't you afraid that some bad guys might pass by?"
"No."
Ye Fan said bluntly: "In front of you, the ones you really need to worry about should be the villains!"
"you……"
The girl was so angry that she couldn't help stamping her feet.
Li Yun's divine consciousness floated out of Ye Fan's body and teased, "Really?"
"Then why did you ask me to help look after her before you left?"
Hearing Li Yun's words, Ye Fan's calm expression suddenly froze.
The girl's anger turned into joy, and then she smiled and looked at Ye Fan with a teasing look on her face.
"Is this still the case?"
"I can't tell, little brat, you're not in love with your sister, are you?"
Ye Fan had eaten holy fruit in the ancient forbidden land before, and his body rejuvenated and he looked less than fifteen years old.
But in soul, Ye Fan is already an adult. In comparison, Ji Ziyue is a real child in his eyes.
Ye Fan glared at Ji Ziyue unhappily, and just as he was about to retort, he suddenly noticed that the girl in front of him had a changed expression and was looking in the direction behind him with a slightly panicked look.
"……?"
Ye Fan was slightly startled and quickly turned his head to look.
Following Ji Ziyue's gaze, you can see a jade-green bird that looks like it was carved from jadeite appearing by the lake. Its eyes are bright red, like two red bean-sized rubies embedded in them.
"Quick, grab it!"
Ji Ziyue screamed in panic.
Ye Fan jumped into the air without hesitation and made a lightning-fast move to grab the emerald green bird.
But unfortunately, the green bird was so fast that it flew out of the cave in a flash.
Ye Fan took out a purple copper Bagua mirror that he had obtained before. The mirror surface looked like a full moon, emitting a ray of brilliant light. It caught up with the green bird and caused it to dissipate into wisps of green smoke with a puff.
Seeing this scene, Ji Ziyue's expression finally looked better.
"…What's going on?"
Ye Fan frowned and walked over in confusion.
Ji Ziyue frowned and said, "It's one of my cousin's many pets. Since it can find this place, it means my cousin is also nearby!"
"No, we must leave as soon as possible... No, it's too late to leave now, kid, quickly remove the restrictions on me, otherwise she will not only kill me, but also silence you!"
"Ah?" Ye Fan asked in surprise, "Isn't she your cousin?"
Ji Ziyue said anxiously: "You don't know, I..."
Before he finished speaking, a series of crisp laughter came from outside the cave.
"Ms. Ziyue, I never thought that I would meet you here."
Ye Fan quickly turned around and saw a beautiful woman in a green dress flying into the cave, blocking the entrance with a chuckle.
Seeing the woman's appearance, Ji Ziyue first breathed a sigh of relief, but then her heart tightened, and she asked casually, "Ji Xia, why are you not serving Sister Bi Yue? What are you doing here? Could it be that... Sister Bi Yue is here too?"
Ji Xia smiled and said, "Miss, you have never been here before. I was just passing by on business and happened to see you!"
As she spoke, she looked at Ji Ziyue's condition and stepped forward with a smile: "Miss Ziyue, are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so weak and frail, as if your divine power is imprisoned? Do you want me to help you remove the restrictions on you?"
"How dare you!" Ji Ziyue shouted, "How dare you, a mere servant, be so presumptuous in front of me!"
"If I return to the family, I will report you to the elders and ask Sister Biyue to expel you from the family!"
Hearing Ji Ziyue's fierce shout, Ji Xia's steps suddenly stopped.
Taking this opportunity, Ji Ziyue quickly sent a message to Ye Fan: "Ji Xia is a cultivator from the other shore. She is one level higher than you in realm, but she is far inferior to you in physical strength. As long as you can find an opportunity for close combat, you will definitely be able to defeat her by crossing levels."
"Of course, if you don't have confidence, you can also remove the restriction and let me deal with her..."
Ye Fan glanced at the place where Li Yun's mind disappeared, shook his head, and whispered: "Why bother so much, have you forgotten that there are more than just the two of us here!"
After saying that, without waiting for Ji Ziyue and Ji Xia to react, Ye Fan grabbed Ji Ziyue and ran towards the underground river connected to the cave.
Ji Xia came back to her senses and shouted angrily: "Where are you running to!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Xia controlled the divine rainbow and chased after the two people's backs.
What made her feel somewhat surprised and angry was that she, a cultivator from the Other Shore who was at the peak of the Wheel Sea Realm and could control the Divine Rainbow at such a speed, could not even catch up with a cultivator from the Divine Bridge who looked no more than fourteen years old. She was even showing a tendency to be gradually left behind by the other party.
Not only that, the guy seemed to have noticed that she was not fast enough, and he deliberately slowed down, fearing that she would not be able to catch up with him.
"hateful!"
Ji Xia's pretty face flushed red, and she stared at Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue's backs angrily.
It was not until he entered the underground river and saw the fairy-like lake that Ye Fan finally stopped. He turned around and looked at Ji Xia who had arrived late, with a bright smile on his face.
"You little brat, are you panicking?"
"Now let's see how you can escape!"
Ji Xia rode the divine rainbow down and angrily scattered a cloud of colored sand.
Countless mined sands shone like stars in the sky, forming a hazy nebula that enveloped Ye Fan directly.
Ye Fan's divine power was running in his body. He was ready to attack and laughed, "She is so imminently dying that she doesn't even know it. This is really hilarious. Senior, beat her up!"
As soon as the words fell, Ji Xia was startled. She immediately became alert and her attack was half a second slower.
But for some reason, Ye Fan's words did not cause any waves in this lake.
After discovering this, Ji Xia became even angrier and thought Ye Fan was deceiving her.
Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he asked in panic, "...Senior?"
In an instant, a sigh was heard from the lake, followed by the surging lake water.
Thirty-six Tiangang Methods - [Turning Rivers and Seas Upside Down]!
"boom!!"
The waves rolled like a giant hand reaching out from the lake, rising into the sky from behind Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue.
Along with the surging lake water, the dark and yellow mist in the lake was also swept up.
You must know that in this world, the Xuanhuang Qi is a holy object that even super powers covet. A wisp of Xuanhuang Qi is heavy enough to crush a mountain.
And within this vast lake, there are countless strands of mysterious and yellow energy.
The surging lake water poured down from top to bottom, and the mysterious energy contained in it alone was enough to shake the heavens and the earth.
"boom!!"
In just a moment, the colorful nebulas in the sky were shattered by the lake water.
Ji Xia, who was riding the divine rainbow, widened her eyes and looked at the lake water overturning above her head with fear. Just as she was about to beg for mercy, the surging lake water filled with mysterious yellow energy crashed down upon her.
“Puff——”
With a slight sound, Ji Xia's body collapsed instantly and was easily crushed into powder by the heavy lake water.
Afterwards, streams of lake water rolled back, passed over the heads of Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue who were filled with astonishment, and fell back to their original positions accurately.
This is another magical skill among the Thirty-Six Changes of Tiangang - [Returning Wind and Fire]!
It can blow back the strong wind and extinguish the burning flames.
It is a kind of amazing magic and supreme supernatural power that can reverse the development of things.
Of course, what Li Yun displayed was not the real Thirty-Six Changes of Tiangang, but the Thirty-Six Methods extended from the Thirty-Six Changes, which is equivalent to a simplified version of the original.
But even if it is a simplified version, in this world lacking the great road of immortality, it is still an extremely powerful magical power.
Unfortunately, Li Yun was not interested in this kind of thing before. Although the Alliance collected all thirty-six methods from the traditional Chinese mythology universe, he only remembered eighteen of them.
The two magical powers of turning rivers and seas upside down and returning the wind and fire were also acquired by him recently.
There's no way, who made him only have soul power now?
As long as the Thirty-Six Tiangang Methods are recognized by the rules of heaven and earth, they can be performed even with only the power of the soul.
Now it seems that the effect of this magical power is indeed quite good!
Not to mention the return of wind and fire, just the ability to turn the rivers and seas upside down is worth Li Yun's effort to master.
Because this magical power can ignore the type and quality of water, whether it is ordinary lake water or lake water containing a large amount of Xuanhuang Qi, it can be easily commanded to create huge waves.
With the mighty power of [Turning Rivers and Seas Upside Down], as long as Li Yun stays here, he will have powerful enough means of attack.
After the surging lake water swept back, Li Yun withdrew his magical powers with satisfaction, and then turned into a stream of light and emerged from the lake, landing in front of Ye Fan, staring at this thief with a bad face.
"Boy, you can handle a mere cultivator from the other shore, why do you have to lure her here?"
Ye Fan smiled and flattered: "Don't you want to see the strength of the senior?"
Li Yun rolled his eyes: "What about now?"
Ye Fan gave a thumbs up and said with admiration: "Let alone other things, this one move alone is enough to compete with the Holy Lord. Senior, you are indeed a hidden great power!"
"Stop flattering me!"
Li Yun said unhappily: "You have stayed here long enough, it's time to go out and explore the world."
"My spiritual consciousness is too far away from my body and cannot be replenished by my true self. I need to sleep in your sea of suffering to restore my soul power. Therefore, in most cases, I will not interfere with your actions."
"But as long as you are in danger, call my name and my divine consciousness will appear."
"... That's all I have to say. You two, take care of yourselves!"
After saying that, Li Yun waved his hand, and without paying attention to the reactions of the two, he decisively released his magical power [Returning Wind and Fire].
In an instant, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue's figures moved, turning into a stream of light, shooting towards the previous tunnel and cave.
Soon, the two returned to the cave and looked at each other in confusion.
“…What kind of magical power is this?”
Ji Ziyue couldn't help but ask.
Ye Fan said unhappily: "You ask me, who should I ask?"
"Instead of dwelling on this, why not think about where to go next..."
Ji Ziyue blinked her big eyes and suddenly said, "Speaking of which, the day when Taixuan Sect accepts disciples seems to be approaching soon!"
