Nonsense! Master is not my wife.

Qu Yueting did not show any surprise, and nodded slightly: "When I was young, I was lucky enough to cultivate to the seventh level, but unfortunately, due to some things, my spiritual roots were destroyed and I was thrown back to the mortal world."

The old man was extremely calm when he said this, as if he was talking about a topic that had nothing to do with him.

"Seventh Realm..."

There was a hint of surprise in Yin You's eyes. One has to know that the Seventh Realm is considered a strong person in the Five Realms. Even the Lord of Huacheng, a heavenly city in the Changqi Dynasty, is only a cultivator at the peak of the Seventh Realm.

How could one's spiritual roots be destroyed if he had such level of cultivation?

It was naturally not appropriate for Yin You to ask too much about such a private matter, so he apologized, "I'm sorry, Master Qu."

Qu Yueting shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "What is there to be sorry about? I have let it go after all these years. Compared to him, the destruction of my spiritual roots is just a trivial matter."

At this point, a complex expression flashed in her eyes: "Back then, an evil spirit caused chaos in Huacheng, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths and injuries. Even the mayor of Huacheng died in his own mansion."

"At that time, I relied on my Seventh Realm cultivation to fight on the front line against the evil spirit. Later, during a battle, I fell into the evil spirit's trap."

"Just when I was in danger and was about to fight to the death, Sister Yin suddenly descended from the sky and saved me."

"To this day, I still remember the scene at that time," Qu Yueting murmured, and the tall figure in black robes seemed to appear in her eyes. "Sister Yin only used one move to strangle all the evil spirits in the sky without leaving a speck of dust."

"Later, it was thanks to Sister Yin and her master who killed the evil spirit that Huacheng returned to peace and tranquility."

……

After walking out of Zuiyue Teahouse, Yin You and the other two were still recalling the old man's calm and indifferent words at that time, and the complex expression on his face that was a mixture of sadness and happiness.

The three of them lost interest in shopping, so they went straight home and returned to the Liu family.

After making an appointment with Xue Qingyou and Liu Ling'er for dinner in the evening, Yin You returned to his yard. He closed the bedroom door, took out the broken object given by Qu Yueting from the storage ring, and placed it on the table.

A faint light flew out of his body, landed on the table, and turned into Yin Ci's figure.

There was still a hint of doubt on Yin Ci's soul's face. She looked at the broken block in front of her, and she really couldn't recall any similar memories in her mind.

But strangely, she truly sensed a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling from the broken blocks in front of her.

Yin Ci's soul was puzzled, so she tried to reach out and touch the broken block in front of her.

Just as her fingers touched the broken block, a ray of light suddenly appeared.

Yin You squinted his eyes because of the dazzling light. Two breaths later, he opened his eyes and the sudden light had disappeared.

He only saw that the master's soul was stunned for a moment, and then revealed a look of understanding: "This is the work of the master."

"Master's master?"

Upon hearing this, Yin You asked curiously, "What kind of person is Master?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Ci's eyes flashed with confusion: "I have also forgotten a little. I only remember that Master taught me magic and taught Senior Sister the way of swords. He is undoubtedly the strongest person in the Five Realms."

"At that time, the boundary wall of the five domains dissipated, and the whole world was in turmoil and war. It was Master who quelled the turmoil and ended the war. Later, he ascended into heaven in broad daylight under the watchful eyes of the masses."

This was the first time Yin You had heard of this, and he could not help but be fascinated: "Master is such a powerful cultivator."

He quickly asked, "Master, what is her image?"

Yin Ci shook his head slowly: "I can't remember it anymore."

"Where's the portrait?"

Yin Ci shook his head again: "I don't have it, but there should be one in the ancestral hall of Xuelingxu."

As soon as the words came out, Yin Ci's soul suddenly trembled.

"What's wrong, Master?"

Yin You saw her strange behavior and asked hurriedly.

"It's okay." Yin Ci's face returned to calmness, and he looked at the broken block in front of him: "This thing is called the Soul Sealing Map. Master left a message on it, asking us to collect nine Soul Sealing Map fragments. After piecing together the complete Soul Sealing Map, we will get a message about the survival of the five domains."

Yin You's eyes widened: "The survival of the five regions? Why didn't the Grandmaster tell you and Uncle Master directly about such a big thing?"

Yin Ci's tone was somewhat heavy: "Master said in the message that this matter is secret and cannot be told to anyone other than you and me."

"Why is this?" Yin You was a little confused.

Yin Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't say anything.

dong dong dong...

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the yard.

Before Yin You could say anything, Yin Ci transformed into a faint light and entered his body again. Yin You only heard her say, "You'er, go have dinner first. We still need to think about this matter carefully."

After listening to what his master said, Yin You remembered that it was already time for the dinner he had agreed with Xue Qingyou and Liu Ling'er. After he walked out of the bedroom and opened the gate, he saw the two of them.

The three of them went away together.

And the soul of Yin Ci in Yin You's mind was sitting on the top of the Five Elements Hall again. She stopped shaking her legs and her expression was a little obscure.

She raised her head and seemed to see the sky beyond Yin You. She murmured in her heart, "Who is it?"

Liu Ling'er brought Yin You and the other person to the elegant courtyard where they first came and pushed the door open.

Yin You knew that this was the courtyard where his aunt Liu Ningshuang lived. He did not follow Liu Ling'er in directly, but stood at the door and knocked.

"Come in." Liu Ningshuang's voice came from the yard.

Yin You then stepped into the yard, and Xue Qingyou followed him closely.

As soon as he entered the yard, Yin You smelled a fragrance. He looked up and saw a table not far away filled with spiritual food with a rich variety.

Liu Ningshuang changed into a light green silk dress at this time, her hair was casually scattered, and she looked quite relaxed.

She smiled and waved at the two of them: "Come over here."

Yin You and the other person walked to the table and greeted her before sitting down.

Liu Ningshuang smiled and said, "I haven't cooked for a long time. I don't know if my cooking skills have declined. Try it and see if it suits your taste."

When Yin You heard that it was Liu Ningshuang who cooked personally, he was a little surprised, but he didn't hesitate to pick up a piece of fragrant lean meat with chopsticks and put it into his mouth to chew carefully.

Liu Ningshuang, who was sitting opposite him, smiled and asked, "How does it taste?"

Yin You nodded and praised: "It has a good color, aroma and taste."

The smile on Liu Ningshuang's face became even more intense.

None of the four were conservative people, and they occasionally chatted in low voices during the meal.

Liu Linger excitedly told her mother about the interesting things that happened while shopping today. Finally, she talked about the story about the evil spirit in Flower City a hundred years ago that she heard from the owner of Zuiyue Teahouse, Qu Yueting.

"Qu Yueting?"

When Liu Ningshuang heard the name, a hint of surprise appeared on her face: "She is still staying in Huacheng."

Yin You asked curiously, "Auntie, have you heard of Pavilion Master Qu Yueting?"

Liu Ningshuang nodded: "This person was a Huacheng Tianjiao a hundred years ago. At such a young age, he has already reached the seventh level of cultivators. It can be said that he has a bright future."

"It's a pity that her lover was assassinated by the evil spirit during the evil spirit incident, which caused her to hate the evil spirit so much that she spent her life essence recklessly and fought on the front line to kill the evil spirit."

"In the end, she fell into an evil trap and almost died," Liu Ningshuang looked at Yin You, "Later, Yin You, your master arrived in time and rescued her."

"Later, due to some reasons, her spiritual roots were completely destroyed, and no news about her has been heard since then."

Liu Ningshuang sighed, "I thought she had already left this sad place, Huacheng, but I didn't expect that she had stayed there for so long."

After a while, Liu Linger asked, "Mother, who is the lover of Pavilion Master Qu Yueting? Why was he assassinated by the evil spirit?"

"Yin Xingsheng," Liu Ningshuang said slowly, "the Lord of Huacheng a hundred years ago."

Upon hearing this, Yin You and the other two were silent for a moment.

Chapter 25: Unexpected Events

Ten days passed quickly and it was the time when flowers in the Flower City were in full bloom in spring.

Early in the morning of that day, the streets of Flower City were already crowded with people, whether locals of Flower City, outsiders coming to see the flowers, monks, or ordinary people. A steady stream of people were rushing towards the center of Flower City.

Yin You was naturally among the crowd.

Together with Xue Qingyou, he followed the Liu family and walked at the front of the vast crowd.

The terrain of Flower City is high in the middle and low around, so the closer you get to the center, the more scenery you can see. Yin You walked beside Liu Ling'er, and as he walked, he looked at the scenery of Flower City which was gradually becoming lower.

It was not until everyone reached the top of the mountain in the center of Flower City and looked at the entire view of Flower City that Yin You's emotions had reached a certain point.

There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, and he stared at Hua Cheng intently.

"Wow……"

"That is……"

Suddenly, someone nearby exclaimed in surprise, and even Yin You and Xue Qingyou couldn't help but widen their eyes.

Starting from the top of the mountain in the center of the Flower City beneath their feet, thousands of flowers were blooming one after another. There were many kinds of flowers, with bright and delicate colors, as if they contained all the colors in the world. Like a tide, they slowly spread around the Flower City, and finally turned the Flower City into a sea of ​​flowers.

It was noon at this time, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the bright sunshine sprinkled on the earth, as if adding a layer of golden glow to the sea of ​​flowers, making it even more gorgeous.

Yin You was shocked by the magnificent sight. He couldn't help but whispered:

"Beautiful, so beautiful..."

Even Yin Ci's soul hidden in Yin You's mind saw the whole process of thousands of flowers blooming through Yin You's vision.

Even though she had seen the flowers in bloom twice, a hint of shock still flashed across her cold and charming face.

It was not until an hour later that the crowd on the mountain gradually dispersed.

Yin You, Xue Qingyou and Liu Ling'er separated from the Liu family and went down the mountain first.

Although the blooming scene has passed, there are still many flowers in the Flower City in full bloom. As they walked along the way, Yin You and the other two could smell the fragrance of flowers.

This floral fragrance is formed by the blending of the scents of thousands of flowers, so it is extremely strong, but it does not make people feel dizzy. Instead, it has the mysterious effect of clearing the mind.

As he walked, Yin You suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked towards a corner alley:

"Such pure wood spirit energy."

The wood spiritual energy that he sensed was extremely pure, almost comparable to the deep blue water spiritual energy after he completely refined the Far North Dark Water. You know, the Far North Dark Water is the top treasure in the world, and it can be called the "ultimate water".

Could this be some kind of top-notch wood-path rare treasure from the world?

Yin You was curious and walked quickly towards the alley. Just as he approached the alley, he suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood amidst the strong floral fragrance.

Yin You's face changed slightly, and he quickened his pace as he walked into the alley, but he only saw a shallow stain of blood on the ground. There was still a trace of the pure wood spiritual energy that he had just sensed in the air.

"what happened?"

When Liu Ling'er saw Yin You suddenly walk quickly into the alley, she hurriedly followed him and asked curiously.

"I'm a step too late."

Yin You squatted down, stretched out his hand to wipe the blood on the ground, his face darkened: "The murderer just walked a short distance."

Liu Linger looked at the bloodstains on the ground and instantly understood what had happened. She said with anger in her tone: "Where did this demon sect cultivator come from? How dare he kill people in Huacheng?!"

"Hurry up and contact Aunt Liu and report what happened here..."

Yin You stood up and turned to look at Liu Ling'er as he spoke.

Before he finished speaking, a flash of horror suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Little!!!"

In his sight, a green dagger as thin as a cicada's wing suddenly appeared behind Liu Ling'er's head and stabbed down fiercely!

boom! ! !

Almost at the same moment, a tremendous sword intent suddenly surged up, and under the strong impact, the green dagger turned into nothingness almost in an instant.

A muffled groan was heard in the void.

Liu Ling'er suddenly fainted and fell towards Yin You, and was held in his arms.

Yin You hurriedly checked her body and found that there was a strange wood spiritual energy hovering in her mind. In just a few breaths, that trace of wood spiritual energy had grown several times larger and was about to spread to Liu Ling'er's body.

Yin You made a prompt decision, pointed his middle and index fingers at the center of Liu Ling'er's eyebrows, and used a secret method: "Banned the Spirit and Conferred the God."

The strange wood spirit that was swirling and growing in Liu Ling'er's mind suddenly shrank into a ball and stopped spreading, as if it had sensed its natural enemy.

Seeing that this move was effective, Yin You used another secret method: "Destroy the gods and remove the spirits."

The strange wood aura that had shrunk into a emerald green ball suddenly began to tremble violently, its surface continued to evaporate, and the ball became smaller and smaller, until only a few wisps of the strange wood aura remained.
