Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 133: Unknown Origin

The atmosphere in the Tianji Hall was solemn and dignified.

On the main seat, an old man with an immortal look was scanning everyone with his eyes like swords. The power of stars lingered around him, giving people a sense of being extraordinary. He was the master of Tianji Pavilion, Master Xingkong.

The seats on both sides were filled with the peak masters and elders from various peaks of the Tianji Pavilion. They looked solemn, and it was obvious that they had just experienced a heated discussion.

At this moment, Zhao Yunhai, Zhao Yunge and Li Jiuxiao walked slowly into the hall one after another.

With a respectful expression, he walked to the center of the hall, bowed, and said, "Greetings to Master, uncles, and seniors."

Zhao Yunge moved lightly with lotus steps, her face respectful, no longer the tomboyish bounce of a young boy. She bowed softly and said, "Yunge greets all the elders."

Li Jiuxiao also saluted. At the signal of Master Xingkong, the three of them sat down in the seats closest to the gate according to the seats for juniors.

After the three of them sat down, Master Xingkong spoke, "Everyone, Yunhai reported that someone recently pulled out Sun Abyss, and that person has agreed to join the Tianji Pavilion. What do you think?"

"I think we should first find out this person's background," one of them said.

Upon hearing this, Xingkong nodded.

"The catastrophe is coming, and we shouldn't be overly demanding about these details. Otherwise, when the catastrophe comes and everyone is going to die, do we still need to discuss where he belongs?" Another person in the field immediately retorted.

After he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent again. Zhao Yunhai gritted his teeth, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and was noticed by Master Xingkong.

"Yunhai, what do you want to say?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunhai immediately stood up and walked quickly to the center of the hall, bowing. "Master, elders, Yunhai believes that with the great calamity approaching, we should focus on practicing sword skills first. Of course, we can also secretly investigate his background during this process, so that we can achieve both goals at the same time."

"Hmm." Master Xingkong nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this. Seeing that Zhao Yunhai did not offend either side, the others had no choice but to nod as well. It was obvious that the Pavilion Master had agreed with his statement.

"Since everyone has no objection, then from today on, I declare that Yun Ge's house arrest is lifted and you can bring him here to practice sword." Master Xingkong saw that everyone had a "unified" opinion, so he began to give orders.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunge bit her lips lightly, looking aggrieved, but hesitant to speak, looking as if he dared not to say anything, which was extremely adorable.

"Hmm?" Master Xingkong, with his profound cultivation, instantly noticed the troublemaker's appearance and asked, "Yun Ge, what do you want to say?"

Zhao Yunge's eyes lit up, and he immediately started chattering, pointing fingers, fanning the flames, and making all kinds of complaints with exaggeration.

"In short! Master, that guy is just a stubborn rock, and he refuses to go up the mountain. We have to go to the Goddess Peak anyway! Oh, when the Hualong Peak is being built, why don't you let each disciple take a sword and go to train this new junior brother first, so that he won't know the rules in the future and make you angry." Zhao Yunge looked so righteous that the elders present were speechless. They wanted to scold him, but they couldn't bear it.

Everyone usually dotes on her too much, and seeing her look, they immediately knew that she must have suffered a loss at the hands of someone and wanted to seek revenge.

"In that case, you can take the sword with you and teach him first." Master Xingkong was helpless after being scolded by her, so he had to agree to her, and a look of doting flashed across his eyes.

"Great!" Zhao Yunge jumped up and cheered, and turned around to make a face at Zhao Yunhai to mock him.

Li Jiuxiao looked calm, but felt a little sad inside. Although nothing had changed, he vaguely felt that something was different.

On the other side, at the foot of Goddess Peak.

In front of the courtyard of a dilapidated earthen-walled house, a group of bandits were rubbing their swollen legs and wailing in pain.

They couldn't understand the new boss's actions. Instead of pursuing a promising career in robbery, he'd ask them to find some mirror fragment. Why hadn't that mysterious woman defeated him? No, that wasn't right! If she had, who knew how she'd torture them.

Ye Beixuan also looked worried. Where on earth was this mirror? Wasn't it here? It shouldn't be, but he had dug deep into the ground for the past few days and still had no clues. What was going on?

At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared, which made the eyes of many bandits light up. The bandits who were wailing just now suddenly sat up straight, looking like men.

"Oh! Did they just go out to rob? They all look listless." Because he was practicing sword skills under the order of the emperor, Zhao Yunge did not wear a veil this time, which made the bandits stare at him with their eyes wide open and their mouths watering.

Even Ye Beixuan looked a little dazed, which reminded him of the time when she turned into a ghost after her death and worked as his maid.

Zhu Zifeng was terrified. Could it be that she had already successfully become the boss's wife? If these two devils became their own bosses, wouldn't that be a mixed doubles match? Why is my life so miserable?
"What's the matter?" Ye Beixuan asked first. He knew that this woman would never come to him for no reason.

"It's nothing, I just came here to get some fresh air. What? Don't you welcome me?" Zhao Yunge said lazily and cutely.

"We are busy with business." Ye Beixuan was too lazy to argue with her. After all, finding the fragments was the most important thing at the moment.

Zhao Yunge guessed that Ye Beixuan would have this attitude, so he whispered: "I have already talked to my master and asked him to help you find that thing." Ye Beixuan's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this. If Tianji Pavilion could help, it would definitely be easier to find it.

"Nothing"

At this point, Zhao Yunge's expression became playful, and she suddenly interrupted the text, which made Ye Beixuan's heart sink again. This woman knew that she had no good intentions.

"But what?" Ye Beixuan frowned slightly and asked in a flat tone.

"But you have to be my sparring partner, otherwise I won't help you find it." Zhao Yunge said mischievously with a smile on his face and a slightly joking tone.

A sparring partner? Isn't it just a punching bag? It sounds so nice, but I'm not a pushover either. It's not certain who will be the punching bag! Ye Beixuan felt a conflict in his heart, but he responded calmly, "Being a sparring partner is not impossible, but if you still can't find any clues, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Okay, it's a deal." Zhao Yunge was overjoyed, looking like he'd succeeded in his evil plan. "I don't care how your investigation goes. I'll beat you up first and then I'll get my revenge."

So, the two people, each with their own ulterior motives, began to prepare to go to the top of the mountain with different purposes.

"Boss," a timid voice came, and Zhu Zifeng shouted to Ye Beixuan with a face full of grievance, "You have to give us instructions before you leave! What if we go to rob and you come looking for us again?"
"Hmm?" Ye Beixuan and Zhao Yunge looked over at the same time with their eyes as sharp as swords. With the looks on their faces, no one would believe that they were not a couple.

"I mean, you and sister-in-law." Before he could finish his words, a humanoid object flew out.

"I'll wait for you on the mountain." A figure in white quickly flashed towards the mountain peak, leaving behind only a cold and slightly trembling echo. However, her cheeks were as red as apples, and no one could appreciate this scene.

"Uh..." Being a little dazed by this sudden scene, Ye Beixuan softly ordered: "You guys keep searching, I'll be back soon. Don't be lazy, otherwise, you know what I'm doing."

After threatening them, Ye Beixuan dodged and flew up on the leaves.

When he arrived at the flat ground at the foot of the mountain, he landed gracefully and saw Zhao Yun holding two swords and looking at him.

"Catch the sword." Ye Beixuan hadn't even stood firm when he saw the broken sword flying towards him. He was speechless. The donkeys in the production team also need to rest! Isn't this forcing people?

Zheng.
Immediately afterwards, a silver light flashed, and Ye Beixuan drew his sword helplessly. A golden light flashed, and the two lights suddenly intertwined together to emit a blazing and dazzling light.

The two people in the field seemed to be practicing together, but also more like competing with each other. Air waves were flying, sword energy was whistling, Zhao Yunge's figure was as light as a swallow, and the cold air was pressing in the flashing blue light.

Ye Beixuan held the Riyuan Sword, his figure standing like a lonely pine tree, and every time he swung the sword, he seemed to be "struggling" to cooperate with her.

The two of them practiced double swords together, which should have been seamless, but Zhao Yunge kept playing tricks, deliberately making the sword moves always deviate a little, trying to create trouble for him so that he could take the opportunity to beat him.

She just spun like a dot, and the Moon Frost Sword emitted a silver light and stabbed towards him. This was originally a double sword move, but she deliberately deviated from the angle a little. If Ye Beixuan followed the sword move, he would either be grabbed by her neck or be kicked when he was vulnerable.

How could Ye Beixuan not know her little thoughts? He turned his sword slightly and cleverly dispelled her "trap".

Not only that, taking advantage of the flaw in Zhao Yunge's sword move, he deliberately loosened his wrist and pretended that the sword move was not well coordinated. Taking advantage of the inertia of the deviation of the sword move, the sword body went towards her buttocks. With a crisp "pa" sound, the empty plain was surrounded by trees, and this crisp and pleasant sound echoed for a long time.

"Ah!" Ye Beixuan quickly said in a simple and honest manner, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhao. I just noticed that your sword move seemed to have deviated. I had no choice but to counter it, but I didn't expect you to get hurt. I apologize to you."

Zhao Yunge's delicate body trembled, her face full of shame and anger, but she had to swallow the bitter fruit of her own making.

She secretly gritted her teeth, but her tone was extremely nonchalant as she said, "It's okay, just be careful, the next sword moves will be even more complicated!"

She deliberately emphasized the words "better be careful," but even so, she was already seething with rage. How could she let it go? This only intensified her resolve for revenge.

In the following sword moves, she continued to make trouble, and Ye Beixuan seemed to be addicted to playing tricks on her. Whenever she wanted to trip him, he would pretend to make a mistake in the sword moves and hit her buttocks with the sword, and deliberately hit the same place every time.

Zhao Yunge was furious at the repeated "mistakes". Finally, she couldn't help but explode. She threw her sword to the ground, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily, "Why are you so stupid? Look how many times you've hit me!"

She was so angry that her chest heaved violently, and her face was full of grievance that she could no longer suppress. She looked like an annoyed kitten, grinning and a little cute.

"Oh! As the saying goes, a master can only lead you to the door, but practicing is up to you. It's because you, the master, failed to lead me to the door!" Ye Beixuan looked at her like this, feeling very amused. I hit you on purpose. I am more familiar with this sword move than you are. Do you want to play tricks on me? No way.

"Hmph!" Zhao Yunge was choked with speech after hearing what he said, and could only hum softly.

After a long time, perhaps tired from the fight, Zhao Yunge rubbed the still sore area and said in a somewhat indignant tone, "I've been accidentally injured so many times, you should at least give me some compensation. How about this! You said you were a storyteller before, so tell me a story as compensation. If I'm satisfied, I won't hold you responsible anymore."
