Chapter 1558: Is this what kidnapping a child looks like?
When I turned around, I saw an old acquaintance who had fought side by side with me not long ago.
At that time, Yang Gao was still arguing with the guards of the Immortal Pond and did not notice that Ye Linglong in front of him turned around.
"I am Master's direct disciple and also a general under her. I have been in this Purple Star Palace for many years and have been in and out of this fairy pond countless times. What is stopping me this time?"
All I heard was a heavy sigh from the guard.
"General, we don't mean to stop you, but we dare not disobey the Emperor's orders. Please don't make things difficult for us."
"Just don't complain, okay?"
"General, do you really not know why the Emperor is blocking you from entering?"
Yan Gao was silent.
Ye Linglong actually saw a hint of sadness in Yang Gao's expression, which looked like he had something to say but didn't want to say it, and was deliberately doing it even though he knew it was wrong.
Although he returned to the fairyland, his black hair had turned white due to exhausting his strength in the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses, and it has not yet recovered. This shows that his damage seems to be permanent.
"General, you have suffered such a terrible thing in the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses. The Emperor is worried about you and doesn't want you to take any more risks. You should just stay in the Purple Star Palace and recuperate. Don't bother yourself any more."
"How can this be considered a torment?" Yan Gao broke the silence and suddenly raised his voice: "I have been leading this army for so many years. The battle between immortals and demons is imminent. What will happen to my soldiers if I am not here? We have been fighting demons and monsters for so many years. How can I miss the most important battle?"
"General, I understand you, but...but this is the order of the Emperor. If you insist on breaking in, either kill me today, or go and ask the Emperor for instructions." The guard sighed helplessly again: "Take a rest, General."
Yangao was not convinced. He stood there without moving, looking like he was thinking whether to force his way in or something else.
At this moment, he raised his eyes and saw Ye Linglong looking back at him in front of him, and he was stunned for a moment.
After the two looked at each other, Ye Linglong swaggered into the fairy pond, jumping as he walked, as if he was showing off, extremely arrogant.
After she went in, Yan Gao pondered for a moment, turned around and left without continuing the stalemate with the guard.
As soon as he left, the guards at the gate of Xianchi breathed a sigh of relief.
"The general is finally gone."
"Why did he leave? He came here every day and would stand for at least a day before he left. It seemed like he left so suddenly today."
"You must be sad. A new kid can come and go freely in the Immortal Pond, but he, as a direct disciple, has to be blocked outside. Who wouldn't be sad?"
"But the Emperor is doing this for his own good."
The two of them whispered for a while, and only stopped when they realized that Yangao had not come back.
Time passed quickly, and soon Ye Linglong walked out of the fairy pond in a swagger.
If you observe carefully, you will find that Ye Linglong who comes out is a little fatter than when he went in. At first glance, it feels like he has a body full of nutrition but nowhere to go.
Ye Linglong walked down the stairs and walked away gradually. Looking at her receding back, the two guards couldn't help but mutter again.
"Who is she? Why does the Emperor tolerate her so much? I heard that she not only visits the fairy pond every day, but she also eats a lot of precious fairy fruits, but she is obviously not even a fairy!"
"Tsk, I heard she was brought here by the devil."
"But isn't the demon our prisoner? How come the little girl he brought here is being treated so well?"
"I don't know, maybe in just a few days? Isn't the Demon Sealing Conference going to be held soon? Then we'll have to lock everyone up!"
"Since she's going to be locked up anyway, there's no reason to be nice to her now."
When the two of them got to this point, they suddenly fell silent, because no one knew what to say next, and it seemed like nothing they said made sense.
Ye Linglong was still walking on her own, completely unaware of the people talking about her behind her, until she walked under a fairy tree. Suddenly, her feet were lifted off the ground, and someone grabbed her waist with both hands and lifted her up high.
She turned her head and saw Yang Gao squatting behind the tree to catch her. Yang Gao grabbed her but did not cover her mouth. Instead, he just looked at her quietly.
"Hey, did you know that the first thing to do when kidnapping a child is to cover his mouth? If you don't cover my mouth, I'll just start yelling and your crime will be exposed! Don't you want to enter the fairy pond? You can enter if you kidnap me."
Hearing this, Yan Gao was stunned for a moment. After a long while, he said, "I didn't mean to kidnap you. I was just wondering, weren't you dead? How did you become a child?"
Ye Linglong was stunned, his round eyes widened.
"Do you recognize me?"
“Is it difficult to recognize you?”
"I've already achieved this, isn't it easy?"
The originally serious Yan Gao suddenly burst into laughter.
"It's not difficult for anyone who truly remembers you to recognize you."
"What? I thought my disguise was perfect! I even fed myself up every day for it!"
"No matter how round your eyes are, they won't change. The agility and elegance in your eyes are something that no one can imitate."
"Thank you. I thought you were exaggerating me." Ye Linglong paused and then asked, "Why do you think I'm dead?"
Yan Gao looked around and was very alert.
"This is not the place to talk. Come with me."
Yan Gao was about to put Ye Linglong down when he heard her say, "Wait, you don't want to take me away in such a grand manner, do you?"
Yan Gao tilted his head and asked again, what else?
"You are a bit cautious, but not too much. You should learn from me when it comes to doing bad things secretly."
After Ye Linglong finished speaking, he took out a sack from his ring.
"When arresting someone, it is best to put them in a sack and take them away. This is simple and crude and can isolate the person's scent in a short period of time, so that they can be captured without being noticed."
Yan Gao's eyes widened: "You want me to put you in a sack?"
Ye Linglong said with a smile: "How about I put a sack around you? What color do you like? I can let you choose."
…
Yan Gao was silent for a moment and then said, "Then I'll trap you."
Ye Linglong jumped into the sack happily, humming a little tune as she did so. To be honest, she had used a sack on many people before, but this was the first time she had used one on herself. She had never been in one before, so she was a little excited.
After entering the sack, not only her breath was isolated, but also her perception of the outside world.
In this sack where there was nothing but darkness, Ye Linglong fell asleep while absorbing the power in his body.
So much so that when Yang Gao let her out of the sack, he didn't hear any sound. If she hadn't been still breathing, he would have almost thought she was killed in there.
