One of my fairy-like friends

Several hundred years... The duration of the dark turmoil is still uncertain; let's just hope it happens... Ning Mengru sighed inwardly.

"How is your relationship with Fei Xuan?" Ning Mengru paused for a moment, then asked with a smile.

"There hasn't been any real development..." Mingyan was a little embarrassed, not expecting Ning Mengru to care about his relationship with Ning Feixuan.

"Did your ancestors say anything about you...?" Ning Mengru asked casually.

"Sister? Sister hopes that I will pursue Fairy Ning openly and honestly, and that's what I think too." When Ming Yan heard Ning Mengru ask this question, he immediately understood what she meant. She was worried that he would force Ning Feixuan. After all, his sister was the one who could truly decide all matters, big and small, in Yaochi. Ming Yan was not that despicable.

Ning Mengru paused for a moment, then chuckled, "You saw right through me. It was my fault. I shouldn't have doubted you. I know your character very well. But I am Feixuan's master after all, so I couldn't help but be a little suspicious. I'm sorry, Yan'er."

Mingyan shook his head, not taking it to heart; it was normal to have such worries...

"Actually, I had already confessed my feelings to Fairy Ning before... but I was rejected." Ming Yan said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hmm? Is that so? Judging from your tone, you haven't given up yet?" Ning Mengru was somewhat surprised.

“Yes, she said she’s single-mindedly pursuing the Dao and has no interest in anything else. I know that she… she and Ning Zetian have some issues that need to be resolved.” Mingyan nodded. “If I can help her resolve these issues, or rather, once she’s dealt with them, her thinking will change.”

Mingyan was almost certain that she would change after resolving this matter.

That's why he didn't give up and wasn't discouraged by Ning Feixuan's temporary rejection.

“Yes, there are indeed some things between her and Ning Zetian that need to be dealt with.” Ning Mengru nodded gently. “It seems that you are also very clear about this. She has always wanted to find out the truth of what happened back then and then kill her enemies. The people of Yaochi are generous and peaceful, but that doesn’t mean they are without anger, nor does it mean that we are saints. I have always supported her in seeking revenge.”

“I also think that if she succeeds in getting revenge, her mentality will definitely change a lot. However, whether she will fall for you is up to you.” Ning Mengru said softly, “I also hope that you two will get together. After all, you are now half a Yaochi person. If you get together, Feixuan will not need to leave Yaochi.”

Am I half a person from Yaochi? Mingyan's expression was strange. He must have benefited from his sister's influence...

"Thank you for your support, Aunt Ning," Ming Yan said, bowing.

"No need to thank me, I'm just offering verbal support, I won't do anything practical." Ning Mengru chuckled, "You came to see me, surely to say goodbye?"

"Yes, I need to go back to the Holy Land to report. I've been away from the Holy Land for too long, and my master won't know where I am. He'll be worried."

"Aren't you going to spend more time with your sister?" Ning Mengru asked with a half-smile.

Mingyan pursed his lips and then shook his head. "My sister is too good to me. I'm worried that I'll get too caught up in her kindness. If this continues, I don't know when I'll be able to help her anymore. But I will come back to see my sister again. I hope Aunt Ning won't find me annoying."

"I wouldn't dare find you annoying." Ning Mengru smiled playfully, then her lips curled up. "If you have nothing else to do, shall I personally escort you to the teleportation portal?"

"Yes, thank you, Aunt Ning. Please." Ming Yan nodded. Although the teleportation portal to Yaochi was nearby and not very far, Ning Mengru and his speed were on completely different levels. Since Ning Mengru personally escorted her, the time spent was naturally shorter.

Ning Mengru's figure disappeared from the spot. Before Ming Yan could come to his senses, he felt a blur before his eyes. When he came to his senses again, he was already near the teleportation portal.

Ming Yan was shocked. He knew that cultivators at the Human Realm were incredibly fast, but this was beyond his imagination. Ning Mengru's speed was many times faster than Huang Junyi's back then.

Is the difference between a half-step welcoming party and a full-step welcoming party really that huge?

"Give my regards to your master. Also, you can tell your master, senior sister, or other trusted people about our ancestor's affairs, but it's best not to tell outsiders to avoid any complications," Ning Mengru transmitted to Ming Yan.

Mingyan was put down, and then nodded, "Thank you, Aunt Ning, for giving me a ride."

Ning Mengru shook her head and chuckled, then disappeared from the spot.

Mingyan also stepped into the portal.

————————————————————

At Yutai Blessed Land, on the edge of a cliff, Liu Mengli sat gently swinging her legs, chin in her hands, thinking of her senior brother.

She is petite and exquisite, with an extremely cute appearance, slender and long legs, and a very beautiful figure. When she grows up, she will definitely be a great beauty.

Her cultivation level has reached the Taixi Realm, and her progress is rapid.

Keep in mind that Ming Yan has only been gone for a maximum of six months, yet Liu Mengli has already advanced two realms...

It took Mingyan a whole year to go from beginner to advanced levels...

Although the spiritual energy in the current Yutai Blessed Land is far more abundant than that in the past, and the Huang family has given Yutai Blessed Land a great deal of resources, such as spirit crystals, which Xia Yanming has been very generous with and used directly on the younger generation, it also proves that Liu Mengli's talent is amazing. Her current status is no different from that of Ming Yan in the past.

"I wonder when Senior Brother will be back. When he comes back, he'll be very surprised to see that I've already broken through to the Taixi Realm, right? Maybe he's only at the Taixi Realm himself... No, no, Senior Brother is so powerful, he might already be at the Zhaohai Realm, or even the Yinling Realm!" Liu Mengli had confidence in Ming Yan; she was Ming Yan's number one fan.

As she was speaking, Liu Mengli suddenly felt her eyes being covered, and a muffled voice came from behind her, "Guess who I am?"

Although the voice was muffled, Liu Mengli was absolutely certain of the scent. Overjoyed, she exclaimed, "Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Is that you?!"

Mingyan released Liu Mengli with a hint of helplessness. "How is Mengli so smart? She guessed it right away?"

"Senior brother! Senior brother!" Liu Mengli stood up and threw herself into Ming Yan's arms, rubbing her head against him happily. "I know your scent, senior brother. Although there are a few unfamiliar scents on you, I can still smell it... Hmm, is this a girl's scent? Have you met a lot of girls outside, senior brother?"

As she spoke, Liu Mengli pouted.

Mingyan chuckled and ruffled Liu Mengli's hair, "Can't a senior brother have a few friends?"

"Hmph..." Liu Mengli snorted, "I'll let it go since my senior brother came back to see me. Senior brother, look at me! I've broken through to the Taixi Realm! Isn't that amazing?"

When Ming Yan approached Liu Mengli earlier, he had already discovered that Liu Mengli's cultivation had reached the Taixi level. He was quite surprised at the time, not expecting his junior sister to be so powerful.

"Impressive, impressive! My junior sister, you've really impressed me." Ming Yan nodded seriously, a thought suddenly striking him. "Junior sister, would you be willing to come with me to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land?"

"...Huh? Is that okay?" Liu Mengli blinked her big, watery eyes, seemingly in disbelief.

“Of course you can. Your master is the Holy Lord of Feng Ling Yue Ying.” Ming Yan pinched Liu Mengli’s cheek and smiled.

Chapter 127 A Daughter Grows Old and Is No Longer Left at Home

"Is that so?" Liu Mengli looked at Mingyan with wide eyes. "Senior brother, can you tell me about the things that happened to you after you left Yutai Blessed Land?"

“Okay.” Ming Yan smiled slightly, pulled Liu Mengli to sit down together, and began to tell about his experiences after leaving Yutai Blessed Land.

However, since it was being told to Liu Mengli, Mingyan naturally couldn't reveal everything without reservation, such as his relationships with other female friends, like An Ran and Ning Feixuan.

There was also the matter of his sister, Wang Qingchu; Mingyan didn't mention any of these things.

Even though it was the abridged version, Liu Mengli listened with great interest.

Hearing that Mingyan had encountered a cultivator several realms higher than him in the secret realm, she nervously squeezed Mingyan's hand, looking so adorable.

"Alright, alright, that's enough for now." Mingyan pinched Liu Mengli's cheek and said with a smile, "Do you want to come with me to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land?"

“Of course I’m willing, but Senior Brother, I still need to ask Father’s opinion. Why don’t you go and talk to Father? If you go to Father, he will definitely agree.” Liu Mengli nodded and tugged at Ming Yan, “Senior Brother, shall we go to Father?”

"Hmm." Mingyan helped Liu Mengli up, and Liu Mengli then took Mingyan's hand and walked forward. "Senior brother, what is your cultivation level now?"

"Early stage of the Qi Sea Realm," Ming Yan said with a smile.

"...What initial stage of the realm?" Liu Mengli stopped, turned around, and looked up at Ming Yan, her face full of confusion. Had she misheard? Was it the Qi Sea Realm? Or the Illuminating Sea Realm?

"Qi Sea Realm." Ming Yan repeated. After leaving through the teleportation portal, Ming Yan tried to fly for a while. With the enhancement of the Star Gap, his speed was so fast that even Ming Yan himself was surprised. At full speed, even his senior sister and Ning Feixuan, who were at the Qi Sea Realm at the end of their previous lives, were not as fast as him. However, this time when he returned, his senior sister might have already broken through to the Divine Palace Realm, so she might not be slower than him.

Senior Sister's talent is extremely amazing, and she must also have some kind of special physique. However, her master has never mentioned it, and Mingyan has never asked about it either.

If he uses the "?", his speed will reach a terrifying level.

Mingyan sensed that the Human King Body was born for fighting beyond one's level. Its incomparably powerful physique, its vast spiritual energy sea, and its powerful self-healing ability that ordinary people could not comprehend... The Human King Body was born for battle.

"...Senior brother...you're amazing..." Liu Mengli opened her mouth, stared at Ming Yan for a long while, and then whispered, "Although I think senior brother is exceptionally talented, I only thought he would at most reach Yangling, but I didn't expect him...to have already reached the Qi Sea stage..."

"Senior brother just had some special opportunities." Mingyan shook his head and chuckled. His sister, Wang Qingchu, was his greatest opportunity.

Looking back on my journey, all the opportunities I've encountered seem to be related to women...

"I have a feeling that my senior brother is hiding something in the story he told me..." Liu Mengli muttered to herself, then shook her head and pulled Mingyan forward. "Father will be very happy to know that my senior brother has already broken through to the Qi Sea level after leaving the blessed land for half a year."

When Mingyan ascended the Rain Terrace Blessed Land, he had already met with Sect Master Xia Yanming. Xia Yanming's cultivation had reached the Taiyi level, so he could naturally tell at a glance that Mingyan had broken through to the Qi Sea level. He was both surprised and gratified. He thought that his master would be happy to see this.

Liu Mengli pulled Mingyan along as they jogged, encountering many former disciples of Yutai Blessed Land. They were quite surprised to see Mingyan, seemingly not expecting him to return.

Many greeted Mingyan, who responded with a smile, only to be pulled away by Liu Mengli.

Liu Mengli quickly led Mingyan to Liu Yunfeng's residence. As she reached the door, she called out sweetly, "Father! Father! Look who's back!"

Liu Yunfeng was refining medicine when he heard his daughter's voice. He subconsciously released his divine sense and sensed a familiar aura. He was somewhat surprised, then stood up and walked out of the house. "Mingyan is back?"

"Master," Mingyan said, bowing.

"You...your aura has already reached the initial stage of Qi Sea?" Liu Yunfeng quickly noticed the abnormality. He looked at Ming Yan in surprise, then laughed loudly, "It seems that the sect leader's original idea was indeed correct. It was a waste of your talent for you to stay in Yutai Blessed Land. In just half a year, you have already broken through to the Qi Sea stage and are almost catching up with me."

Liu Yunfeng has reached the full level of Qi Sea cultivation. This level of Qi Sea cultivation is more than enough to serve as an elder in such a blessed land, but it is only the cultivation level of an ordinary holy son or holy daughter.

"Mingyan has lived up to expectations and has not disappointed his master and sect leader."

"Why are you still calling me Master? You've already graduated from my tutelage. You can call me... Uncle Liu or something like that, but don't call me Master anymore," Liu Yunfeng shook his head and corrected him.

Mingyan pursed his lips, "Uncle Liu..."

“That’s right, that’s how it should be.” Liu Yunfeng laughed heartily, walked up to Ming Yan, reached out and patted Ming Yan’s shoulder, “In just half a year, you have achieved so much. I’ve actually been the master of such a genius. I can say that I have brought honor to my ancestors.”

Upon hearing this, Ming Yan turned his head to look at Liu Mengli. His junior sister was smiling and looking at him with her head tilted to the side. He patted Liu Mengli's head and said, "Mengli is also very talented. Her future achievements will definitely be great."

"Yes, yes, after you left, Mengli also showed extremely high talent. You two make me proud. By the way, who did you take as your master in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land?"

“I am a disciple of the Holy Lord of Wind Spirit Moon Shadow, Yue Wuxia, who was the Holy Lord of Moon Shadow who once settled the Rain Terrace Blessed Land.” Ming Yan said, “My master is very good to me and trusts me greatly. I am still the Holy Son of Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land.”

“...That’s true...You’ve already reached the Qi Sea Realm.” Liu Yunfeng nodded, somewhat sighing. “I just didn’t expect your master to be the Moon Shadow Saint Lord...The Moon Shadow Saint Lord is incredibly accomplished. He was a famous genius in the Eastern Continent when he was young, and his current cultivation is terrifying. Perhaps only someone like him is qualified to be your master. I’ve just wasted your time.”

“Master… Uncle Liu, why do you say that? You personally led me into the immortal sect, and you helped me grow from nothing to something.” Ming Yan shook his head.

Liu Yunfeng chuckled. "Did you come back this time to see us?"

"Well, there's another idea. I'd like to bring my junior sister to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land as well. With her talent, she'll be highly regarded there." Ming Yan nodded. In just half a year, she'd gone from Yongquan to Taixi... You have to understand, Liu Mengli is only eight years old now. She's expected to break through to Yinling before she turns ten. For Wind Spirit Moon Shadow, she's definitely a rare genius.

Liu Yunfeng lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked at Liu Mengli, "Mengli, what do you think?"

"I...I want to go to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land with my senior brother," Liu Mengli said softly when she saw that Liu Yunfeng did not refuse.

"...I knew you'd say that." Liu Yunfeng's smile was somewhat helpless. "You're leaving your father's side so soon... However, going to Fenglingyueying will open up a brighter future for you, and you'll also have your senior brother looking after you."

Liu Yunfeng had complete confidence in Ming Yan. Although he was young, he was always very reliable.

Liu Yunfeng thought for a moment and nodded, "Then I'll leave Mengli in your care. After all, she's still young."

Mingyan nodded. "Of course."

"Hehe, thank you, Father!" Liu Mengli jumped up and down with a grin when she saw that Liu Yunfeng had agreed, then hugged Mingyan's arm. "Senior Brother, let's go then. I also want to see Senior Brother's Master!"

"...Sigh, they say daughters are like birds that fly away when they grow up. She's not even grown up yet, and she's already thinking about leaving me." Liu Yunfeng was exasperated. It felt like his daughter was being raised like someone else's...

She liked her senior brother too much, but... Mingyan was indeed an extremely outstanding person, but he wasn't Liu Mengli's best choice. In the end, her daughter might get hurt. When a man is too outstanding, more than one woman can see him.

But... what can a father say when his daughter likes it?
