After leaving the secret room and the forbidden area in the back mountain, Xuanqing followed Xuanming into the valley.
"Second brother, are you really not going to reconsider it?" Xuan Qing, dressed in red, played with a strand of hair that fell on her shoulder, smiling charmingly and wickedly.
"Fourth Junior Sister, I have made up my mind. You don't need to persuade me anymore." Xuanming waved his hand and quickened his pace.
"In that case, I'll go with Second Senior Brother to take a look. Perhaps... I can be of some help or something."
Xuan Qing's eyes drooped slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up. She wanted to see who on earth could make her usually stingy second brother suddenly so generous that he was willing to sacrifice the two thousand year old ice toad that he had originally intended for Xiao Chenchen.
When Xuanming and Xuanqing reached the entrance to the valley behind the mountain, they saw Xiao Lengyu running towards them, breathless. Xiao Lengyu, who had been jogging all the way, had no time to rest. When he saw the two of them, he hurried forward to report.
"Second Elder, Fourth Elder, it's great to see you. Yu Shujun just went berserk and almost pushed Master Mu to the ground. Second Elder, please go and take a look!"
"Walk!"
Xuanming's face darkened upon hearing this, and he immediately summoned his Qinggong skills and flew directly towards Yiran Residence. As for Xuanqing, he also tapped his toes, stepping on the grass and trees, and followed Xuanming's figure.
After delivering Mu Lige's instructions, Xiao Lengyu began searching for Shan You. Although the place looked peaceful and tranquil, it was actually filled with formations and barriers. Although Shan You was clever, it was his first time in Xuanyi Valley, so he might have gotten lost.
“Ouch!”
As Mu Lige and Xiao Lengyu had expected, Shan You followed the instructions of the valley dwellers and, after leaving Xuanyi Valley, arrived at the outskirts of the forbidden area in the back mountain. Strangely, while the valley was like spring all year round, the back mountain was covered in ice and snow.
Dan You, wearing only a thin autumn coat and without any internal energy to protect him, decided to turn back after finding himself in the snow. However, he didn't expect that no matter how he walked, he seemed to be just going in circles.
"A-choo! A-choo!"
Shan You, who was already weak, suddenly shuddered from the cold and couldn't help sneezing several times in a row.
"I'm sorry, Master Mu! Ah You is really useless. Not only did he fail to find the Second Elder, he even got lost."
Shan You stomped his feet in frustration, but the next moment, he found a big hole suddenly appeared in the snow under his feet. He didn't even have time to close his mouth, which was wide open in shock, before he fell into it.
Shan You woke up with a dizzy feeling. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a solemn and majestic hall. Under the statue of the Three Pure Ones in the center of the hall, there was a white-haired Taoist priest holding a whisk, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, meditating with his eyes closed.
"Child, you're finally here!"
Just as Shan You was looking around, the white-haired Taoist suddenly opened his eyes and looked kindly at Shan You lying on the ground.
"Grandpa, are you a god?"
Shan You looked curiously at Xuantian, who was wearing a yellow Taoist robe, had white hair and a youthful face, and a kind-hearted look.
"I am not a god, but the great elder of Xuanyi Valley. My Taoist name is Xuantian." Xuantian looked at Shan You and said kindly.
"It turns out to be the Great Elder. I'm so sorry!" Shan You struggled to get up from the ground, walked to Xuantian and bowed to him.
"Child, you are destined to have bad luck and would not have lived past the age of ten. But because you met the 'chosen girl', the trajectory of your destiny has changed. Your future... is full of uncertainty. Whether you will live a glorious life or fall into depravity and ruin often depends on just one thought." Xuantian shook the whisk in his hand and said with an unfathomable look on his face.
"'Chosen Daughter', could it be that you, Great Elder, are referring to the Master?"
Shan You opened his clear eyes and looked at Xuantian curiously. Ever since he met Hua Qingcheng, his attacks had indeed become less frequent, and the pain he endured during each attack had also been greatly reduced.
"Um."
"This is the fortune of you two brothers, but also... a disaster!" Xuantian concealed his compassionate face and looked at Shan You seriously.
"Disaster?" Shan You asked puzzledly.
"Misfortune is the foundation of good fortune, and good fortune is the root of misfortune. Whether it is a blessing or a misfortune depends on your thoughts." Xuantian just happened to whisk away the dust and lowered his eyes to think again.
"Please give me your instructions, Great Elder!" Upon hearing this, Shan You bowed to Xuantian again with a respectful and pious attitude.
"Stick to your true self and don't forget your original intention. And the most important point... you must not betray your master under any circumstances, even if someone threatens your brother's life. You must remember the old Taoist's words. Your fate has long been connected with the 'Chosen Daughter'. If she is well, you will also have a glorious life. But if you betray your master, then I am afraid... you will be doomed." Xuantian said sternly.
"Shan You has made note of this. Thank you, Great Elder!"
Shan You bowed respectfully to Xuantian again, but the next moment, he found himself back at the gate of Yiranju courtyard.
"Master Mu!"
Shan You trotted into the yard and came to Yu Xiaotian's room, but was stopped by Xiao Lengyu at the door.
Xiao Lengyu, who had been looking for Dan You everywhere but couldn't find him, returned to Yiranju, but was directly assigned by Xuanming to guard the gate.
"Brother Shan You, the Second Elder, the Fourth Elder, and Master Mu are all inside. They are detoxifying Uncle Yu. We will wait outside first."
…
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect that the Holy Son of Zhaoyang Country is so fresh and handsome, just like the orchids in our valley, extraordinary and otherworldly." Xuanqing teased as he looked at Yu Xiaotian who was unconscious on the bed but his handsome appearance could not be concealed.
