Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 513 Happiness is within reach

After the banquet ended, the Starfall Pavilion group, who had won the championship, quickly embarked on their journey back to the Heavenly Star Mountain Range.

Perhaps spurred by the earlier banquet, the two, who had been reunited after a long separation, did not exchange a single word. Hun Ruoruo chatted and laughed with Mu Qingluan, while Lin Yan dared not provoke her at this moment. He could only slink away to the side and silently recover his fighting spirit.

After a while, Xiao Yan ended up being the one left hanging.

Knowing that the other party held a high position and great power in the Starfall Pavilion, Xiao Yan had no choice but to close his eyes and concentrate, and began to cultivate on his own.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and the Starfall Pavilion, which had been the talk of the world, was finally unveiled.
Xingyun Pavilion, the main peak.

"This is the Starfall Pavilion, one of the Four Pavilions?"

Gazing at the massive meteorite suspended in mid-air below, Lin Yan, overwhelmed with emotion, couldn't help but exclaim:

"Comparing yourself to others can really make you angry. I used to think that Liu Qinglin and Xiu Ya's lives were enviable enough, but now I realize what kind of life I was living before?"

Ever since he came to Zhongzhou to make his way in the world, he hasn't had a single day of peaceful sleep. He's either fighting with others for resources or offending some spoiled brats with his fiery temper. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a rat crossing the street.

If he hadn't been lucky enough to obtain a miraculous movement and combat technique, let alone participate in the Four Directions Pavilion Grand Competition, he would probably have lost his life years ago.
"If you like it, senior, you might as well stay here. Starfall Pavilion won't be short of a bowl and chopsticks."

She gracefully leaped down from the white crane, and at this moment, Hun Ruoruo had clearly regained her composure, smiling faintly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan's face clearly showed interest.

It should be noted that the entry requirements for the Starfall Pavilion have always been the most stringent among the four pavilions. In addition, having won the championship in the Grand Competition, it will definitely be at its zenith for some time to come.

Moreover, the current chief and young master of the Starfall Pavilion both have a past relationship with him, so it's unlikely anyone would refuse such an offer.

Lin Yan's expression changed several times. After hesitating for a long time, he finally shook his head with a wry smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Ruoruo, but I think this place may not be suitable for a troublemaker like me. Staying here will probably only bring you a lot of trouble."

Hun Ruoruo pouted: "Even if he's a troublemaker, can he be more troublesome than your brother?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan was speechless for a moment. After stammering for a while, he finally forced out a sentence, "Precisely because he is a brother, I can't cause him any trouble."

Seeing the curious look on Hun Ruoruo's face, Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before saying frankly, "You two are such monstrous talents that you've long since left me far behind. Even if I join the Starfall Pavilion, I'm afraid I'll only become a burden to that kid in the future."

"You girls might not understand, but we're brothers. We'll share the good stuff, help each other out in fights, and even risk our lives," Lin Yan grinned. "However, there's no way we're going to take advantage of you!"

Hun Ruoruo was taken aback, but said with a bit of a laugh, "Isn't it just that you care about your image? Does Senior really think Ruoruo can't see that?"

"Cough cough cough! Ruoruo, that's not very kind of you. Don't expose people's hardships."

Lin Yan coughed a few times, feeling a little awkward. He clearly hadn't expected the other person to understand men's thoughts so well.

He glanced around, then looked at Xiao Yan in the distance, who was surveying his surroundings under Mu Qingluan's guidance, and lowered his voice to say:
"Well, I'll just consider this visit as a guest. Next time you come, don't forget to let me and the other guys have some wedding candy. Oh, and don't invite Lin Xiuyai. If he knew about this, he'd probably be heartbroken behind my back."

After saying that, Lin Yan raised his eyebrows in a urging manner, and then, before the girl in front of him could react, he ran off to where Xiao Yan was.

"."

Gazing at the two figures in the distance, their arms linked, Hun Ruoruo pursed her pink lips, then reached out her slender hand and gently placed it on her chest. "Wedding candy...?"

So-called happiness was already so close to me. Soon after, the four who had been traveling together quickly split into two groups. Mu Qingluan led Lin Yan to find a guest room to settle down, while Hun Ruoruo called Xiao Yan and headed to the Pavilion Master's room where Venerable Feng was.

Pushing open the door, Xiao Yan glanced around the antique-style study, then took a deep breath and respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute to the handsome man leaning against the desk.

"This humble one, Xiao Yan, greets Senior Venerable Feng."

"senior?"

Hearing this somewhat unfamiliar form of address, Venerable Feng raised an eyebrow, then smiled faintly and said, "You've been traveling with Ruoruo all this way, surely she didn't tell you my identity?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression instantly froze.

Just kidding! Ever since the banquet, that vixen hasn't said a single word to him. Even when she brought him here, she acted like it was all business, let alone mentioning Venerable Feng's identity!
The only thing I remember is that my teacher and the other person were close friends, with a life-or-death bond.

Recalling the way Hun Ruoruo addressed him, Xiao Yan asked with a hint of certainty, "Uh, Martial Uncle?"

Upon hearing the words "Uncle-Master," Venerable Feng finally smiled and said, "Not too slow-witted after all."

Seeing this, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could speak again, he heard Venerable Feng mutter to himself:

"Old man, your beloved disciple has returned safely, so why are you hiding away and refusing to see anyone?"

"Hehe, after being away on training for so long, as your teacher, I naturally need to check on my disciple's physical condition first."

Suddenly, a warm voice that Xiao Yan knew all too well rang out from the room.

As the image of the old man slowly emerged, Xiao Yan's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed in delight, "Teacher!"

The old doctor nodded with a smile: "It seems that the title 'little guy' may no longer be appropriate for you."

Although he was joking, the old man's actions were swift; he stepped forward and brushed aside the young man's hair, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes.
"You brat, in just one year you've ruined yourself like this. Have you forgotten everything I said?"

The burn marks running across his forehead and the black flames covering his right eye silently testify to the hardships the young man has endured.

"If it weren't for these experiences, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to advance to the Spirit Realm." Xiao Yan grinned. "Also, teacher, I can now encounter soul entities. If you want to knock my head again, you'll have to put in a lot more effort."

"Here, look."

After saying that, he reached out and put his arm around the old man, giving him a big bear hug.

"Wait, you brat, wait!"

The sudden, immense force caused Yao Lao's face to change drastically. Before he could even utter a word to stop it, a crisp collision rang out in Feng Zun Zhe's astonished gaze—

"Gaba!"

"You brat, go find Ruoruo right now and purify your soul!!!"
