After the protagonist retired, the heroine quit

Page 84

If that’s the case, then just face it bravely. After all, they are all on the same island. It’s impossible for Tie Yanran to kill him. And he just so happens that he has some questions he wants to ask.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu was no longer so depressed. His mind became clear. He picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up a dish to taste the restaurant's cooking when a voice sounded in his ear, interrupting his attempt to turn his grief and anger into appetite.

"Son..."

He turned his head and saw that it was a female cultivator. Because she interrupted him halfway, she happened to sit next to Xiao Yu, pushing Bu Shuantian, who was originally sitting next to him, to the other side.

"Oh, it's you! What's up with you?"

Xiao Yu spoke.

It was obvious to the female monk that she was not just coming here to eat as she said.

There were still many vacancies in the restaurant, and they came to them just for him.

To be honest, Xiao Yu had a good feeling towards the female cultivator in front of him. For some reason, it was like she was an old acquaintance he had known for a long time.

"So the young master has seen through it." The female monk smiled faintly.

"I came here this time because I have something to give you, young master. No merit, no reward. There is a principle of cause and effect between cultivators. I can't take your top-grade spirit stone for nothing, so I'll give it to you. Since you insist on entering the secret realm, this thing should be able to help you, and it can also be regarded as settling this matter between us."

As she spoke, the female monk handed a snow-white, slender object to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu did not refuse. He did not know why at the time, but he suddenly left a piece of top-grade spirit stone. Now it seems that his behavior at that time was a bit inappropriate.

He took it and saw that it was a white feather with beautiful patterns.

The fur is snow-white, as if it were a piece of falling snow, and when you hold it in your hand, you can actually feel a slight warmth.

While Xiao Yu was looking at it carefully, the female monk also explained:

"I found this outside the secret realm. I think it's a feather from a phoenix. It might be helpful when we get to the secret realm."

The feathers of the Phoenix...

Looking at the snow-white, extremely delicate and silky feather in my hand.

Xiao Yu was stunned, and suddenly thought of the detailed information about the origin of Fengqiu Secret Realm given to him by the woman from the Thief Sect.

The mutated white phoenix is as white as silver, and the flame it ignites can penetrate the flesh and directly burn the soul of the cultivator.

This is extremely scary.

In the world of cultivating immortals, as long as you break through the Nascent Soul stage and condense the Nascent Soul, even if your physical body is completely destroyed, as long as the Nascent Soul or the soul survives, you will have a chance to make a comeback, and you can even be reborn with the help of secret techniques.

The flame of the phoenix can actually burn the soul directly through the body, which is horrifying.

When Xiao Yu first learned about this information, the idea of escaping began to rekindle in his mind.

But fortunately, this phoenix has been sealed by an unknown powerful being from ancient times, and it was sealed thousands of years ago.

Even if it is the demon race, without any spiritual power and food supply, they would be extinct in a few thousand years.

Upon closer inspection, the feather in front of us, although shiny and bright on the surface, is actually weak in momentum, like the ashes left after burning, or just a spark.

"This thing I..."

"Take it. I don't owe you anything. Well... that's it..."

As if she had guessed what Xiao Yu was going to say next, the female monk spoke up in advance to stop him from refusing.

Those eyes, like a pool of clear water, were dotted with stars, like a swaying ember, floating and shining, and the emotions contained in them were quite complicated.

Xiao Yu couldn't help but squint his eyes. Through those eyes filled with complex emotions, it was as if he was using a magnifying glass to see details that he had previously neglected and not noticed. His eyes swayed slightly, like ripples on a lake, layer upon layer, circle after circle, tempting to be fascinated.

When it gets darker in the evening and the sky turns dim.

The meal at the table was almost finished, but Xiao Yu, holding the feather in his pocket, continued to talk with the female monk, still thinking about something.

After a sumptuous dinner, only two people at the table did not eat.

One is a masked figure who is wearing a mask and has no intention of taking it off, so naturally he can't eat anything.

Another one is Xiao Yu, who picked up the chopsticks but never had the chance to put them down.

Feng Ling didn't have a big appetite, so she just picked up a few pieces with her chopsticks, and then mostly drank the tea on the table.

Most of the food on the table was eaten by Bu Suantian and the black-robed girl.

Especially Bu Shuantian, who looked quite petite, ate so happily after the meal. It was probably because he didn’t have the chance to eat such delicious dishes in the deep mountains.

As for the female monk who joined halfway, just like when she first came, after talking with Xiao Yu, she ate a few bites and felt full, so she left early.

At this point, the meal was over and the matter was resolved.

Naturally, they went home and each went his own way.

and many more……

Everyone goes back to their homes!

At this moment, Xiao Yu seemed to wake up from a dream and turned his gaze away from the feathers in his hand.

In other words, he and Tie Yanran will soon be in the same room in private?

He looked up, just in time to see the masked figure walking towards him.

The mask was still ferocious, but the corners of its mouth that were turned outward seemed to be full of smiles.

Chapter 106: Letter from Demon Gathering Island

"Good night, Mr. Tie. Ye Ba is now in your care. Remember to help me keep an eye on him. If he does anything out of line, you can do whatever you want to him. Don't worry about me..."

In order to prevent Xiao Yu from escaping halfway and slipping away to a brothel to spend his time drinking and partying, Bu Suantian accompanied him all the way and successfully welded Xiao Yu's car door shut, leading directly to the masked figure's room, making it impossible for him to get out of the car.

His remarks made Xiao Yu stagger when he walked into the room.

What a aunt I am!

Outside the door, Bu Shuantian saw Xiao Yuzhen enter the masked figure's room on the second floor of the inn before he was willing to leave with the black-robed girl.

The departing figure seemed heartless, but she didn't know that her behavior was tantamount to putting a piece of top-notch pork belly and a hungry wolf in the same cage. In order to prevent the pork belly from running around, she also thoughtfully tied a rope around it, cooked it, and brought it to the mouth.

The masked figure said nothing, just waved and watched them go away. She had a good impression of this blue-haired girl.

Considering that she couldn’t wait to stuff Xiao Yu into her room…

After Bu Shuantian and the black-robed girl disappeared in the distance, the masked figure turned around and closed the door of the room.

Boom!

The door scraped against the door frame, followed by a crisp sound.

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and involuntarily took a few steps back, hiding behind the table in the room.

There is no doubt that it was the sound of the door being locked.

It's late at night, and they're two grown men, is it necessary to lock the door?

Closing and locking the door has always been used to prevent people inside the house from escaping. The so-called closing the door to beat the dog and catching the turtle in the jar is exactly this method.

There is no doubt that the masked figure will do that to Xiao Yu, and then do this... this and then that.

In the end, Xiao Yu cried out to heaven but no one answered him. He could only curl up in a corner and shed tears of humiliation.

The above is what Xiao Yu expected after he took the initiative to admit his identity and was beaten up by Tie Yanran.

hiss!

It would be fine if he didn't think about it. But when he thought about it, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that the masked figure in front of him became scary.

The name of the Jade-faced Mad Demon that is circulated on the Demon Gathering Island is not false. His methods are cruel and brutal, and inhumane. Among all the criminals caught on the island, none is mentally intact.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu shuddered, and suddenly felt that it was not so easy to admit that he was Xiao Yu, if Tie Yanran still resented what he did when he left the island.

Is it going to happen soon?

He decided to make a last-ditch effort. As long as he insisted that he was not Xiao Yu, Tie Yanran could not do anything to him, at least not by force or torture.

So looking at the masked figure walking towards him slowly and calmly, Xiao Yu tensed his face and prepared himself for battle.

The dim sunlight shone on her, and ravine-like shadows were immediately reflected on the hideous mask.

She raised her head, and across the table, the charming and lively eyes of the mask met Xiao Yu's gaze from afar.

The two looked at each other, as if time had frozen at this moment.

The masked figure looked at Xiao Yu, whose expression was firm and whose teeth were clenched, and blinked.

She raised her hand and Xiao Yu tensed up, thinking that she was going to take out the blade that had chopped him last time in Tiefu.

Unexpectedly, the masked figure just shook his wrist lightly, then reached into his arms and took out something that looked like a letter.

For a moment, Xiao Yu, who was staring at her so closely, almost felt his cerebellum shrink.

what is this?

A letter of surrender?

Xiao Yu reacted and sneered, even showing Tom's expression on his face.

It's so funny. How could Xiao Yu, a man of great integrity, be succumbed to a piece of paper?

The masked figure just gently held the light but longing letter in her hand, glanced at Xiao Yu, and sighed softly. She did not speak in the low voice of the mask, but spoke in her own voice:

"This is the letter Bai Yan asked me to bring to you when I left the island."

swoosh~

The afterimage passed by, and the letter in his hand was gone.

The masked figure... should be Tie Yanran. She didn't even see Xiao Yu's movements clearly. He was hiding behind a table far away from her in the last second, and appeared in front of her in the next second, looking at the letter in his hand with excitement.

Teleport?

When did Xiao Yu learn this skill? He didn't even use it when I was chasing him.

Coming back to her senses, Tie Yanran looked at Xiao Yu in front of her with a complicated expression. As expected... the idea given by that three-tailed mixed-haired fox was really correct.

In a trance, the fox's voice sounded in her ears again:

"Are you asking how to find Xiao Yu? It's not that simple... Just take out something related to Bai Yan and let him hear a little bit of the news. No matter if it's a sea of fire or a mountain of swords, he will appear in front of you immediately."

It seems that Bai Yan is very important to him as it said!

Thinking of this, Tie Yanran's bright eyes couldn't help but flash with a trace of loneliness, as if she was somehow being outdone by someone.

Besides, that person didn't do anything...

Xiao Yu didn't know about Tie Yanran's complicated feelings, but he was extremely excited at this moment.

Who cares about the Jade-faced Demon...

Xiao Yan actually wrote him a letter!!!

This is an act of true affection...

This is a big improvement for Bai Yan, who has no feelings for the living dead.

How could Xiao Yu, who had raised him with great difficulty, not be excited?

In such a historic moment, any hesitation for a second would be a betrayal of his fatherly heart.

A trembling heart, a shaking hand.

Xiao Yu carefully opened the letter in his hand and took out the papers inside.
