Chapter 201 Returning to the Mountain with Bite Marks
"Hey, where's Yuanchen?"
"Yuan Chen? Who is Yuan Chen?"
"Your brother."
"?"
The early morning after the end of the new year was the day Danzong was originally scheduled to leave, and the time did not change.
After all, it wasn't just the siblings who came on this trip, there were also two elders from the same clan.
Yuan Caiwei gave Ji You a final diagnosis and treatment in the early morning before she left. She restored his meridians that had been twisted by the Qi to their original state, and completely restored Ji You's arm.
So the group went down from Mount Ni and said goodbye on the main road of the south city on the right side of the sacred road.
"Brother-in-law, I'm leaving."
"Be careful on the road and don't run around anymore."
"Did I run around? I didn't move at all last night, but none of you remember..."
Yuan Chen got into the car with a look of grievance on his face, holding a thick stack of manuscripts, and then he flipped through them with a pursed mouth.
Shengjing was extremely lively last night, and many people lost things among the mixed crowd.
Some people woke up after a night of drunkenness and found that their jade pendants were missing, some found that their wallets were missing after shopping for a long time, some lost their shoes, and some even lost face.
Ji You and his friends lost a younger brother, and even after losing him, they didn't remember what they lost.
It was not until this morning, when the sky was just getting light, that Yuanchen found his way back to Tianshuyuan with a look of grievance on his face. They all suddenly realized what had happened and thought to themselves, no wonder they felt something was missing last night. They couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Even though Yuan Chen does not deserve a name in their triangular story, he is still the direct descendant of the Dan Sect.
Moreover, he has no fighting ability, but possesses the skill of alchemy which is easy to make people jealous. If he were really kidnapped by bad guys, it is estimated that half of Qingyun world would be in chaos for a while.
However, Yuanchen actually did not go anywhere last night. He was listening to stories in the lantern house until late at night. When he came to his senses, he found that his brother-in-law and two sisters were gone. He could not recognize the way, so he went home with the storyteller in the West Market Lantern House and forced him to tell stories all night.
It’s not that I’m addicted to listening to books, but the main thing is that the storyteller is telling a new book tonight, and that new book is adapted from the real experience of my brother-in-law’s mission to the Snow Region.
How can I not listen to the end? If I don't listen to the end, I will be suffocated to death.
The storyteller said, "I am a mortal, fifty-seven years old. If I don't sleep for one night, I will die!" Yuan Chen said, "You won't die. I'll give you a pill that will keep you awake all night."
Finally, the storyteller couldn't stand it anymore, so he gave him all the manuscripts he had written throughout his life, and was so afraid that he would rather change his career.
At the same time, Yuan Caiwei was also saying goodbye to her plastic sister Yan Shuyi face to face.
And when she saw the wound on Yan Shuyi's mouth again, the resentment in her heart could not be dispelled.
When she decided to come to Tianshuyuan to deliver the elixir, all she had in mind was three nights of undressing treatment, two people in one room.
But what she didn't expect was that Yan Shuyi was also there, and she didn't expect that the appraiser's sister, whom she had known for many years, would be so jealous. So some seduction plans became difficult to carry out. Otherwise, she felt that she would also be wounded.
After saying goodbye, Yuan Caiwei got on the carriage. At this time, her younger brother was sitting in the carriage, concentrating on the script in his hand.
She was a very strict sister and usually opposed Yuanchen reading these fabricated folk stories, but this time she pretended not to see them and said nothing.
"Sister, please get me the next one."
"You should stop watching this kind of stuff..."
"Don't show me false concern. I'm just a little brother that no one cares about. I have a brother-in-law and two sisters, but not one of them remembers me."
Yuan Caiwei looked away guiltily, then handed him another book at her feet.
She really doesn't have the confidence to teach Yuan Chen a lesson now.
Because she didn't want to admit that all she could think about yesterday was Master Ji. She couldn't remember anything while shopping with him. Until she went back to the courtyard to sleep, she didn't feel like she had lost a younger brother.
Yuan Caiwei looked at the direction the carriage was heading, her brows suddenly furrowed, thinking that her father might not want her to marry Master Ji, let alone to be his mistress...
The fact that the barbarians wanted to form an alliance with the demons to attack Jiuzhou had aroused Danzong's greatest nerves. Although the demons did not agree, it did not mean that they no longer had ambitions.
When the demon clan delegation first entered Jiuzhou, they went to Danzong and specifically asked to buy elixirs.
If Jiuzhou really falls into a chaotic world, their Dan Sect will be the least able to resist.
Before coming to the Heavenly Academy, her father had mentioned to her several times the son of the direct disciple of the Shanhai Pavilion and the deputy headmaster of the Chen Immortal Clan...
At this time, Yan Shuyi was gazing at the main street of the south city from afar, with golden light flashing in his eyes. He kept looking until he saw that the carriage did not turn back, and then he felt relieved.
In fact, Yuan Caiwei is quite nice. After all, she hasn't had many sisters in all these years, so it's not unreasonable that he can get along with her.
She is half a year older than me, so it is reasonable for me to call her sister.
But in recent days, every time she heard her call herself "Jianzhu's sister", she always felt that she was a little ambitious...
Yan Shu also withdrew his gaze, then followed Ji You back to the mountain, and then folded the small flowered jacket he had taken off neatly and put it into Ji You's suitcase.
Having been an naive little girl in Shengjing for so long, she has been very satisfied. However, no matter whether she is hibernating, throwing tantrums, or being jealous, it is only temporary comfort for her.
She never forgot that she had not yet broken through, and she also never forgot that she was responsible for the entire Lingjian Mountain.
In other words, living in the courtyard with a strange man is like a dream, in which you can let yourself go, but unfortunately, people cannot always live in dreams.
It's time for her to calm down and stop being Ji You's arrogant fairy. Instead, she should be the little judge of millions of disciples...
In fact, Ji You had known that Yan Shuyi would leave after the New Year. After all, she had secretly come here during her retreat. At this moment, he was roasting the sweet potatoes that she had specifically requested for, when he suddenly felt a sword energy coming at him.
Half an hour later, a ray of fairy light rose into the sky with the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes.
Ji You waved his hands below, and the originally intact corner of his left lip was bitten and bleeding.
This girl even knew to leave a gift.
It was noon in Lingzhou, the weather was warm, and Zhuo Wanqiu decided to write a second letter to Tian Academy. However, just as she put pen to paper, clouds began to roll in above the clear sky. There was a skylight howling behind the clouds, and wind and waves came with it.
The next moment, as the willow tree on the top of the mountain that had not yet sprouted new buds bent slightly, Yan Shu also floated to the ground, with a faint golden light in his eyes.
"It's the Master."
"The Master is finally back..."
Zhuo Wanqiu and Ding Yao immediately ran out of the hall and saw Yan Shuyi walking in from outside the hall.
After not seeing each other for a long time, both of them felt that Jianzhu seemed to be a little plump, probably because she was being taken care of by Master Ji.
However, what attracted their attention most was the tooth mark on their master's mouth.
The shape of the wound after scabbing is actually much more obvious than when it was just bitten, and both the trace and direction are very easy to identify.
Just by looking at the wound, they could imagine the scene of Ji You biting Jianzhu's lips with a little force. They felt like they wanted to see it but didn't dare to, and their eyes were vague.
They really couldn't imagine what kind of expression a woman as cold and arrogant as Jianzhu would have when being hugged and kissed passionately by Master Ji.
The one who was most afraid was Zhuo Wanqiu, who had originally suggested that Jianzhu go to Shengjing to visit his relatives.
In just one month, the judge had been deceived by her brother-in-law and was completely deceiving. If it had gone on for a few more days, she might have really come back pregnant.
Yan Shuyi looked at their eyes and easily guessed what they were thinking.
This is the case with the human race. Before condensing the immortal body, even if the cultivator recovers very quickly, he still has to go through the process of scabbing and shedding.
That night when Ji You wanted to bite her, she struggled and told him that he would be discovered and that the entire Lingjian Mountain would kill him, but he said he was not afraid.
Xiao Jianzhu was actually a person without much of his own opinion, and was easily carried away. After hearing him say seriously that he was not afraid, he felt a little soft-hearted, so he couldn't help but let him bite him.
In fact, she herself didn't understand. If she returned with such a wound, people would definitely speculate about it, but why did she secretly expect him to bite her too?
"Is Shuyi back?"
"I'm home, father."
Yan Shuyi raised his eyes and saw Yan Jingxiang walking out of the hall, so he answered softly.
Ever since his daughter went missing, Yan's father has come to inquire about her every day.
Zhuo Wanqiu told him that his daughter decided to go down the mountain for a walk because she had encountered a bottleneck and was feeling depressed, so he didn't think much about it, but he was secretly worried.
Seeing her coming back now, I finally felt relieved.
However, when Yan Jingxiang walked out of the long steps of the hall, he noticed the wound on his daughter's mouth, and his expression suddenly changed drastically, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
"Shu Yi, you..."
Yan Jingxiang was speechless for a long time, but he never uttered the words "Who bit your mouth?"
As a father, it was not easy for him to ask his daughter about such things. But even if he didn't ask, he guessed that his daughter had been away from the mountain for a month to meet her lover.
In fact, half a year ago, Ding Yao had told him through a message that her daughter had a lover, but he didn't know who the other person was.
Later, his daughter chose to stay in seclusion and strive for the boundless realm, and did not go down the mountain again. This made Yan Jingxiang relax a lot.
He thought Ding Yao had only heard it from others, and he also felt that given her status as a daughter, she would not easily fall in love with a man.
But it was not until this moment that he realized that his daughter was truly trapped in a love affair.
Yan Jingxiang was silent for a while before speaking: "You have been traveling for so long, can you eliminate your distracting thoughts?"
Yan Shu also nodded calmly: "I feel much calmer now."
"That's good, that's good... Your mother has been talking about you these days. Take a rest. I'll go call her."
Yan Jingxiang hurried down the mountain, and after hearing what Yan's father said about her daughter's lover, Yan's mother hurried to the Genting Palace.
Yan Shuyi had already changed into the immortal robe of Jianzhu at this time and was sitting in his Fengge when he saw his mother come in and look at the teeth marks at the corners of his mouth.
The strange man really killed someone.
"Are you calm now?"
"Well, I will do a retreat to break through the realm when I come back. I have made some progress before the Heavenly Dao Conference."
"Who is that man? What's his name?"
Yan Shuyi raised his eyes slightly, looked at his mother, and shook his head gently.
Mother Yan looked at her daughter's expression, her brows furrowed, and she didn't know what to say.
Who could have imagined that the next headmaster of Lingjian Mountain, the youngest holder of a weapon among the seven great immortal sects, would actually run out secretly to meet his lover, with his mouth bitten into this state.
If this were to get out, the entire Qingyun world would probably be shaken...
On the second day after the new year, the elixirs sent by Danzong to Lingjian Mountain were counted and stored, followed by the elixir-granting ceremony.
In previous years, Tianjian Peak took 60%, Xuanjian Peak took 30%, and Wenjian Peak took less than 10%.
But this year, due to the order from the Lord of Jian, Tianjian Peak could only get 40%, and the extra 20% was allocated to Wenjian Peak.
The disciples of Tianjian Peak naturally had opinions, especially since the Tiandao Conference was about to be held, and everyone's demand for elixirs was even greater.
So, at the signal of the headmaster Yan Zhong, the disciples of Tianjian Peak became restless at the pill-granting ceremony, and voices of dissatisfaction gradually emerged.
Until a figure wearing the immortal robe of Jianzhu and wearing a glazed immortal crown appeared, holding the elixir box and waving his hand to give them out one by one.
The agitated disciple suddenly quieted down, his eyes widened, and he realized that it was the Master Jian himself who bestowed the elixir this year.
Suddenly, the entire Wangxiantai fell silent.
Seeing this scene, Sect Leader Yan Zhong's eyes couldn't help but become sharp, and he thought to himself, this is a good trick.
In recent years, he found that Yan Shuyi's influence in Lingjian Mountain was growing, and he had even surpassed himself. As a result, disciples from Wenjian Peak, Xuanjian Peak and Tianjian Peak all regarded him as a spiritual belief.
In fact, he admired his niece a little and always regretted why she was not born in Tianjian Peak.
"The master's mouth seems to be injured?"
"Yeah, there are some scars."
"A few of my junior sisters were discussing this just now, saying that it seemed like someone had bitten him..."
"Bite it in your mouth?"
Zhuo Wanqiu and Ding Yao were also given elixirs. Standing on the Wangxian Terrace at this time, they naturally heard the discussions of the disciples around them.
Fortunately, Master Jian had been on the high platform, so the scar was not very clear in their eyes, and the disciples on the Wangxian Platform did not dare to look directly at Master Jian.
"You should know that if I come back like this, it will definitely cause discussion."
"Yeah, but she still let Master Ji bite her."
After returning from Wangxiantai, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu stood outside the Yunding Tianque Hall, whispering to each other as they watched the judge entering the hall.
The cultivation of our master has approached the boundless realm, while Master Ji has just entered the upper realm of Tongxuan. There is a gap of two major realms between them, and the gap in strength is naturally a world of difference.
Therefore, if the judge did not agree, Master Ji would not even be able to get close to her, let alone bite her mouth.
So Ding Yao had no doubt that the master was willing to be bitten by Master Ji and did not resist at all.
But she couldn't understand why the Master of Jian wanted to return to the mountain with Ji You's teeth marks.
Zhuo Wanqiu thought for a long time before speaking: "I think the owner of the appraisal actually wants people to know."
Ding Yao looked at her: "Why?"
"Didn't Yuan Caiwei from Dan Sect go to Tianshuyuan some time ago? The disciples who traveled outside the mountain came back and are still discussing this matter. They said that Master Ji is going to marry into Danshan or something like that."
Ding Yao knew about this, but she still couldn't understand what it had to do with the judge.
Zhuo Wanqiu looked at Ding Yao's puzzled eyes and spoke again: "Think about it, Master Jian has heard so many rumors about the son-in-law and other women. She must want others to talk about her and Master Ji, and even hope that others know that she is actually the eldest wife. The swordsmanship of my Lingjian Mountain emphasizes cleanliness and straightness. Master Jian can't deceive his own heart."
Ding Yao was stunned for a while: "But even if he was bitten on the mouth, no one except us would know that it was Master Ji who bit him."
"It's because I can't say it. Sometimes I want others to know it. This is probably what Master Jian was thinking when Master Ji kissed him on the mouth."
"Is it possible?"
Zhuo Wanqiu thought for a moment and then spoke: "Although it's just a guess, it's probably close. Didn't you notice yesterday that when the Peak Master came out of the hall, the Master of Inspection didn't even cover up. It was obvious that he wanted to be seen."
Ding Yao was slightly startled, and a young girl suddenly appeared in her mind.
At that time, the girl got a very beautiful sword, so she hung it on her waist all day long, and didn't say a word, but she liked to walk around and show it to people...
Thinking of this, Ding Yao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, but then couldn't help frowning.
"Miss, you should know clearly in your heart that you cannot marry Mr. Ji."
Zhuo Wanqiu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the word "Miss" referred to the Master of the Imperial Examination. This was what Ding Yao called the Master of the Imperial Examination when she was a child. She couldn't help but look at her and asked, "Why?"
Ding Yao raised her head and said, "Master Jian is now the spiritual belief of the disciples in the mountain. But if these disciples see that their belief is going to marry a disciple of Tianshuyuan who came from a private cultivation in the countryside, there will definitely be trouble. Tianjian Peak will add fuel to the fire and make Master Jian helpless. At that time, Master Ji will also encounter a disaster of death."
Zhuo Wanqiu thought for a moment and said, "We can just keep going secretly, right?"
"Even if we won't be discovered, what about the child? No matter how powerful the Master is, he must continue his bloodline."
"It's a secret pregnancy."
Ding Yao shook her head: "You don't understand, illegitimate children have no inheritance rights. If they cannot inherit Lingjian Mountain, everything Master Jian is doing now will be meaningless. Lingjian and the position of the headmaster will eventually return to the ambitious Tianjian Peak."
Zhuo Wanqiu opened her mouth: "Is there such a thing?"
Ding Yao was silent for a long time and then nodded: "This is what the Peak Master asked me to come over today."
"They want to know Mr. Ji's identity from you?"
"In fact, after the Master of Observation came back yesterday, they sent people to investigate, but the Master of Observation left very cautiously and used the Spirit Observation to erase all traces of the trip, so they came to ask me. Although I didn't say anything, I couldn't help but agree with their thoughts."
Ding Yao looked at the slowly setting sun and said, "I have been very close to the Wendao Sect over the years. I really want to gain some benefits for myself, but in fact, it is also because it is a good choice for Master Jian."
Zhuo Wanqiu pursed her lips and found that she couldn't refute it.
Ding Yao was silent for a long time before speaking again: "Master Ji is good in every way. He is the lord of Fengzhou and can kill the king of soldiers with a sword, but he still lacks an identity."
Zhuo Wanqiu actually wanted to say that Master Ji was a very good person and had a great talent for cultivation. There were so many cultivators in the world, but he was the only one who was famous for reaching the Tongxuan realm. You see, he was like this and like that.
But she also understood that even if Master Ji did so much, it could not match the Taoism and background that others were born with.
"In fact, Master Ji should also be clear about this, right?"
"Um?"
Zhuo Wanqiu raised her eyes and said, "Master Ji should know clearly that if he bites Master Jian's mouth, he will definitely be noticed by the people of Lingjian Mountain. If any clues are leaked out, he will definitely be killed."
Ding Yao thought for a while and then nodded.
How could someone who could tell that Qi Zhengyang's sword heart was possessed by the devil just by the murderous intent in the sword energy and thus helped Xuanjian Peak to get a sharp sword not understand such a simple truth?
Zhuo Wanqiu spoke again: "He knew it, but he still bit it. Maybe he also wanted others to know that the owner of the appraiser was his."
Ding Yao was silent for a while: "It's fruitless. It's probably the same between you and the daughter of the Dan Sect."
"Will Danzong also be like this?"
"The Barbarians and Monsters are ready to make a move, and people often say that the way of heaven has changed. The Dan Sect, which has no fighting power, is the one that needs a marriage the most, so how could they look at Master Shangji?"
Zhuo Wanqiu nodded: "And she's still a mistress."
Ding Yao turned her head and glanced at the hall: "Come to think of it, Yuan Caiwei and our Master Jian once swore to be good sisters for life. I wonder if it has come true."
"when?"
"When I was about seven or eight years old, I didn't want to be the judge yet and was very playful. The head of Danzong was invited to visit Lingjian Mountain and brought Yuan Caiwei with him. The two of them had a great time."
