Fairy, help me cultivate.

Yun Jiang sneered, and Yun Li, wanting to lend a hand, stepped forward.

Chen Yao sighed: "It's not worth risking all that effort to repair my body just to defeat something like this, is it?"

The girl froze, then turned sharply to glare at Chen Yao: "None of your business!"

Chen Yao wasn't offended and greeted him with a smile, "Long time no see, Egg."

Chapter 200 Big Brother, Do You Need a Wife?

The girl was Yu Ling, the eldest of the three Yu sisters, who had been separated from Chen Yao for a long time since returning from the sea.

What Yu Ling couldn't stand the most was Chen Yao calling her by her nickname, which made her feel extremely ashamed. She immediately turned around and glared at him, her gaze sharp as a sword.

Chen Yao just smiled and said, "I think you need some help."

Yu Ling didn't believe he could be so kind at all, and immediately thought of the strange child who died mysteriously in Hai Fang City.

Afterwards, she naturally guessed that Chen Yao was responsible, and she also realized that there was something fishy about the child, but wasn't he a bit too swift in his actions?

What if it's just a child?

Therefore, Yu Ling, who already had prejudices against men, had an even greater bias against Chen Yao.

"You would have such good intentions?"

Yu Ling's lips curled up, and she couldn't help but sarcastically say, "I'm determined to save this child. If you dare to kill her, I'll fight you to the death."

Chen Yao didn't react to her words, but Yun Li frowned slightly. However, she was more mature than Yu Ling, so she didn't say much. She just asked Chen Yao, "Junior brother, should we disperse the dark clouds?"

Chen Yao shook his head: "You left traces of a fight in that town before, it's not advisable for you to intervene, I'll handle it!"

After saying that, he stopped looking at Yu Ling and instead flicked out two beams of light, one silver and one green, from his storage ring, shooting straight into the dark clouds.

The bells in the clouds thundered, and the voice said disdainfully, "So you have reinforcements now. A mere magic weapon dares to tread on my Heaven-Covering Cloud Array... Ah!"

The silver light entered the clouds, instantly transforming into a rain of countless needles that pressed down from below.

The green light then trailed a fluttering blue flag, on which a large snake danced, whipping the wind and instantly dispelling the day's dark clouds.

However, in the blink of an eye, the light faded.

The silver and cyan colors flowed into Chen Yao's storage ring again, and a bloody, mangled figure fell from the sky, crashing heavily in front of Yu Ling.

"clang--"

The deafening sound of the bell fell to the ground, and a small bronze bell, no bigger than a fist, sank several feet into the ground.

Chen Yao didn't even glance at the figure. He picked up the small bell, examined it carefully, and put it into his storage ring.

It is a pretty good magical artifact. Its effects can be enhanced when combined with sword techniques, and the Cloud and Mist Bell sound can also confuse enemies.

Yu Ling was surprised that Chen Yao's cultivation level had increased so much in such a short time, and found it hard to accept.

After a moment of stunned silence, she walked up to the dead man, swung her sword to shatter his already broken dantian, and cut off his head.

Then, without looking back, she walked towards the attic.

"Hey, aren't you even going to say thank you?"

Yun Li was truly dissatisfied this time.

Yu Ling pursed her lips and turned around, not looking at Chen Yao, but thanking Yun Li instead.

Yun Li was about to reprimand this wild girl who had appeared out of nowhere when Chen Yao smoothed things over, saying, "We're family, no need to be so polite."

"Who says we're family!"

"Who says you're family?"

Yun Li and Yu Ling spoke in unison.

Chen Yao looked at Yu Ling: "Your mother said so."

“My mother…” Yu Ling recalled her mother’s dying wish in Haixu, which included asking Chen Yao to take care of her three daughters.

"No need!" Yu Ling's voice was even colder.

"That's perfect. However, we've been fellow Daoists for a while now, so I have some questions for you. You can't just shut me out like this, can you?"

Yu Ling continued walking and entered the dilapidated building: "Do as you please."

Inside the restaurant, the little girl was already waiting at the bottom of the stairs with an expression of admiration on her face.

The innkeeper, with a mournful face, looked at the restaurant walls and courtyard ravaged by Yu Ling with a headache, wanting to say something but not daring to.

These people even killed the immortals in the town, so who would dare to cross them?

Yu Ling looked up at the restaurant and said to the manager, "I don't have any money to pay you back."

The shopkeeper's heart sank to the bottom: "It's alright, it's alright."

With each word he spoke, his brow twitched sharply.

"I have."

Chen Yao walked into the restaurant and tossed a piece of pure gold to the manager.

Upon seeing the gold in front of him, the shopkeeper's eyes widened: "Too much, too much! I don't have change..."

"No need to look anymore, just prepare a table of your restaurant's best food."

Yun Jiang was quite generous this time. She walked up the stairs excitedly, and when she passed by the little girl with big, bright eyes, she didn't forget to touch her little face.

The little girl smiled sweetly at her: "Sister, you're so beautiful!"

Yun Jiang smiled, her eyes crinkling: "You have such a sweet tongue."

"She's quite generous with other people's money," Yun Li sneered as she watched Yun Jiang's figure disappear at the top of the stairs.

Chen Yao took her hand and said, "We're all in the same boat, so let's be tolerant of each other if we can! When it's her turn to contribute, we'll let her make up for it."

Yun Li nodded helplessly, but her beautiful eyes darted around as she tried to think of a way to get Yun Jiang to help.

"Hey," Yu Ling called out to Chen Yao.

"how?"

Yu Ling opened her lips a few times, then stammered, "Thank you... thank you..."

Chen Yao waved his hand: "Forget it! You're a person of authority, and it sounds awkward to you say 'thank you,' and it doesn't sound right to me either."

"you!"

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Yao and Yun Li went up the stairs.

Yu Ling stormed upstairs to protect the little girl and take her away.

As a result, the little girl's eyes practically sparkled when she saw Chen Yao, and she eagerly followed him to sit at the table.

"Big brother, are you an immortal?"

"Big brother, what were those two beams of light just now? They looked really powerful!"

"Big brother, are these two pretty ladies your wives?"

"Big brother, is Sister Yu your wife too? Are you two having a domestic dispute?"

"Big brother, are you still looking for a wife? What do you think of me?"

The little girl chattered away, firing off a barrage of questions that made Chen Yao laugh non-stop. Yun Li and Yun Jiang didn't mind at all; they just thought she was cute and straightforward.

Yu Ling's face grew darker and darker as she listened.

"Little one, do you want to stay with them or with me?"

The little girl looked at the table full of food and wine, then at Chen Yao, Yun Jiang, and Yun Li, before finally looking at Yu Ling with a wronged expression.

"I'll go with him, okay? Sister Yu, your older brother is so good to you, please don't argue with him, okay? Couples fight in bed and make up in bed..."

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Yu Ling gritted her teeth and said, "I have nothing to do with him!"

Chen Yao nodded: "Yes, but her mother entrusted her to me back then. Oh, and her body should also have a part in mine."

"Ok?"

Yun Li and Yu Ling's eyes sharpened, and they pierced straight at them from the left and right.

"I mainly wanted to ask her some questions."

He explained to Yun Li, and Yun Li calmed down a little.

The little girl's big eyes darted around on everyone's faces, and she giggled, pleased with herself for guessing their relationship so correctly.

Sister Yu is very good to her, and her older brother is also very capable. She needs to think of a way to bring the two of them together.

"Sister Yu, no matter what, Big Brother has helped us. Can we have this meal before we leave?"

The little girl blinked her big eyes and said what she thought was completely innocent.

Yu Ling really valued this little one, but she was also a bit helpless: "Eat and then leave."

Chapter 201 Ling Ning's Suspicious Traces

“We waited for you at sea for a month. Later we heard that cultivators were mobilized across the entire sea to search for you, but they found nothing. Li You thought you had already left, so we also set off back.”

After Chen Yao gave a general account of Yu Ling's background, Yu Ling also told Chen Yao about their experiences at sea.

"Where are they? Why are you all alone now?"

If we can reunite with Li You, having this Nascent Soul cultivator would be a great help.

So Chen Yao asked Yu Ling.

Yu Ling's brows furrowed with worry: "We couldn't find any news about you along the way. I thought it was just in case we couldn't find you, so we parted ways with Li You. But my two younger sisters are kind-hearted and felt that they would only be at ease if they knew you were safe and sound. But good deeds are never rewarded."

She sneered.

"how?"

“A while ago, we heard that you were in Jiujiang. So we set off for there, but we encountered a powerful woman on the way who scattered us.”

Yu Ling's lips were a little pale.

"A woman of formidable strength? Even Li You wasn't a match for her?"
