After the protagonist retired, the heroine quit

This also brings us to the reason why Tie Yanran was able to come out. All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive. This is the rule of heaven and earth. Nothing is invincible and without flaws.

Xiao Yu came from outside the world and was a variable, but the only thing that could barely block the erosion of the alien Dao marks was the Righteousness Technique practiced by Tie Yanran.

Righteousness...Righteousness is the manifestation driven by the inner emotion of justice after practicing the Righteousness Formula. To put it simply, it is the thoughts that emerge in the human mind.

Thoughts originate from the human body. Unlike the spiritual energy consumed by driving spells, thoughts consume mental energy.

To a certain extent, the spiritual forbidden land that is the most deadly to Qigong practitioners is not very threatening to those who have practiced the Righteous Qi Art.

After this explanation, Xiao Yu roughly understood why Tie Yanran was able to come out to the Demon Gathering Island.

But he still had a doubt in his mind. It was only with the combined efforts of Tie Yanran's father and her mother that they were able to barely step into the Demon Gathering Island.

The trauma and sequelae left behind were also terrible. The Tie couple has not recovered yet, let alone leaving the island.

But how did Tie Yanran, whose cultivation level was only at the Golden Core stage, manage to be stronger than her father and come out unscathed?

Tie Yanran’s explanation for this is very simple.

"because of you……"

"because I?"

Xiao Yu pointed at himself, and his tone changed from doubt at the beginning to a slight rise at the end.

Chapter 110: Never Air Force

"I?!"

For a moment, Xiao Yu's eyes widened and he actually sat up.

Tie Yanran nodded and hummed. She was still lying on the bed, looking upwards and said:

“Because you, Xiao Yu, are a demon from outer space, you are not affected by the Dao marks of other species. Not only did they not devour you when they entered and exited the forbidden sea area, but they were dragged by you and brought out of the outside world.

Over time, the distribution of different Dao Marks on the road you often walk on is much thinner than in other areas. I was lucky enough to escape from the forbidden sea area when you just left and your Dao Marks were consumed by you and had not recovered yet."

At this point, a trace of fear flashed across Tie Yanran's face. She said it so easily on the surface, but in fact, in the second half of the journey, the forbidden sea area seemed to have self-awareness.

All the unconsumed alien Dao marks nearby rushed towards her, with a hint of annoyance. The path that Xiao Yu had created was constantly recovering, like a huge rock rolling down towards her.

At the critical moment, before the road was completely closed, Tie Yanran jumped out of the water and grabbed a craftsman's creation that was flying in the sky and delivering newspapers.

Taking advantage of the few seconds of being in the air, he lowered the wooden boat he was carrying onto the sea, and thus escaped the disaster by landing on the boat.

As for the strange craftsman's creation that saved her life at the last moment, it was a newspaper delivered by the largest Shanshui Dibao newspaper. Long before taking the blame, Xiao Yu negotiated terms with it and reached a cooperation in order to support himself and Bai Yan, who was still growing up, and find a way to make a living.

At the beginning of every month, they would go to designated locations near the forbidden waters and deliver the latest Shanshui Dibao, which could be regarded as a stable source of income for Xiao Yu on the Demon Jumo Island.

After all, although the Demon Gathering Island was blocked and people couldn't get out, he couldn't ignore the outside world's attention. Therefore, there were still many people who came to buy newspapers from him.

Tie Yanran didn't know the details, but she had guessed something from the situation. Now she knew where the newspapers Xiao Yu sold on the island came from.

It is worth mentioning that Xiao Yu still needs to go out to get the newspaper. In addition to getting the newspaper, he also has to help another sponsor on the island to hand over what he wrote to the newspaper. As for what it is, Xiao Yu has no idea. There are restrictions on it, and if he rashly looks through it, he will be discovered and lose all his reward.

Xiao Yu had always kept all of this secret, so the newspaper had no idea that there was an island like the Demon Gathering Island in the uninhabited forbidden sea area.

After taking the blame, Xiao Yu thought he could sit back and relax and continue living his life on Demon Jue Island, so he contacted the newspaper to continue his previous service. However, he did not expect that he would be forced to leave the island to clean up his mess after only a few days of business. However, he also saved Tie Yanran's life by accident. It must be destined.

Getting back to the topic, Tie Yanran added another sentence, probably because she was afraid that Xiao Yu wouldn't believe her.

"This is what my father observed. After being injured in the forbidden waters outside the Gathering Demon Island, he sat on the edge of the island and watched the rising and falling sea water.

He even stayed out all night, which made my mother complain to him several times. When he went out, he often brought some fishing gear with him, probably to hide his tracks. Sometimes he would come back with a few fish for us to eat, but most of the time, he would come back empty-handed, with a tired face and muttering something like "empty-handed again"..."

Okay, no more words.

Xiao Yu roughly understood it.

Is this the hobby that most men will awaken to when they reach middle age?

Xiao Yu dared to say that, based on his understanding of the group of fishermen on the island, Tie Yanran's father was definitely using the excuse of investigating the banned waters to actually go fishing unscrupulously.

Ugh……

This group of fishermen are also Xiao Yu's customers on the island. He often goes out to buy some novel baits, and then gives them a title of... "the bait will bite once you hang it up", and then sells them to them at a high price.

I have to say, it’s always sold out, and there’s even a sense of supply shortage.

Maybe Tie Yanran's father had also bought fishing bait from him.

However, Xiao Yu would not agree to their requests every time. After all, things are valuable because they are scarce. Occasional shortages would further stimulate their desire to buy baits.

Xiao Yu knew a little about marketing methods, but he had no idea whether the bait he brought in was useful or not.

Most of those guys said it was useful, except for one unlucky guy who almost always failed.

He is also a frequent customer of Xiao Yu. In addition to patronizing his fishing bait business, he also takes care of his business in picture albums. He is one of his few VIP customers.

Most people called him Lao Kong, so Xiao Yu followed suit because he was often on the run.

He was not ashamed of this, but used it to motivate himself, often saying: "No matter how empty-handed I am, I will definitely catch a big catch to show you..."

Unfortunately, the truth is, he never caught any big fish. At most, he caught small fish that were not even as big as the bait, and mostly some debris, such as water plants, brightly colored bellybands, broken shoes, and even a clam with a pearl the size of a football.

I can catch everything except fish.

Xiao Yu expressed his sympathy, but he didn't know whether Lao Kong had caught a big fish as he wished during the months when he was away.

After coming back to his senses, Xiao Yu did not doubt Tie Yanran's words.

She didn't need to say it. Every time Xiao Yu left the Demon Gathering Island, he noticed that the resistance was less than the last time he left the island.

Combined with what Tie Yanran mentioned about the Righteousness Technique, he also knew why Tie Yanran came to him.

If she wanted to go back to the Demon Gathering Island, she still needed Xiao Yu to lead the way.

That is to say...

"If I need two or six months to go back, will you stay with me for two or six months?"

"Well, what a pity... you were planning to go back once the secret realm was over."

There was a hint of regret in Tie Yanran's tone.

"Oh……"

Xiao Yu nodded, but listening to her words, he always felt something was wrong.

He lay down again, his head on the pillow, and suddenly said:

"You don't have to go to the Gathering Demon Island! The world is so big, there's nothing wrong with staying outside."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu felt a gaze looking at him as an idiot sweeping over from the bed.

"My parents and Qingyan are all on the island. If I don't go back, where should I go?"

After a long silence, Tie Yanran replied.

Xiao Yu felt embarrassed by the sharp gaze. He forgot that Tie Yanran was different from Master Leng and the others. She was not dragged to the island, but grew up on the island since childhood. Naturally, she did not have such a strong yearning for the outside world.

On the contrary, for her, everything in the outside world is the "Demon Gathering Island" that Master Leng and his men want to leave.

After figuring this out, Xiao Yu laughed. In order to avoid being looked at by Tie Yanran with strange, concerned eyes, he looked at the mask that Tie Yanran never took off even when sleeping, and changed the subject:

"By the way, I saw you take off your mask when you sleep. Don't you have any family rules in your Tie family that say women can't take off their masks, and if someone outside the family sees you, they either have to kill him or become his Taoist partner, right?!"

This is also a question Xiao Yu has always wanted to ask. He feels that after meeting again in the outside world, Tie Yanran has become much gentler in her behavior towards him.

He held his breath and looked at Tie Yanran who didn't answer immediately. His heart skipped a beat. Could there really be some rules for female Saints?

If that's the case, including Tie Yanran, one... two... three...

Xiao Yu snapped his fingers. Damn! There are too many people to be responsible for…

"No, my family doesn't have any weird rules. My father asked me to wear a mask and pretend to be a man just to protect me, an outlier who can practice the Righteous Qi Technique."

Tie Yanran replied like this. She first looked at Xiao Yu in confusion, then seemed to think of something and her tone was a little depressed.

Xiao Yu didn't know what this meant. He only saw the pair of smart and charming eyes under the mask, which glanced at him secretly. There seemed to be a hope hidden in the shaking pupils.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yu didn't know what to do for a moment when he was being looked at, and didn't respond.

"Go to sleep……"

"it is good."

After saying the last words of the night, Tie Yanran closed her eyes. Xiao Yu was not sleepy at all. He just stared at the ceiling in the darkness with his eyes open.

This time I really fell asleep.

The two of them remained silent all night.

Chapter 111: The Greedy Bu Suantian

Xiao Yu didn't sleep all night. He got up early and went to a restaurant in a nearby secret place to stay there for a day, trying to collect some gossip.

There were many people in the restaurant, and if you listened carefully and concentrated, you could still hear some secrets coming out of the mouths of the people talking. Unfortunately, it was different from when you just left Demon Gathering Island, and you could hear Li Yunshang holding a funeral to commemorate Xiao Yu in the restaurant.

This time, Xiao Yu got nothing after guarding for a whole day. Some things, you can't find them even if you go looking for them, but when you don't pay attention, they will keep hitting you.

However, Xiao Yu also saw something interesting through this.

Inside the restaurant, a group of people with animal ears on their heads and parts of their bodies that looked like wild beasts had a conflict with another force.

They are the Wanshou Sect and Yanghua Valley.

The reason was that a disciple from Yanghua Valley couldn't stand the beast ears on the head and the almost demon-like practice method of the Wanshou Sect, so he directly mocked them, calling them half-demon and beast.

This aroused the anger of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

The technique practiced by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has a long history and is an ancient method. It requires the blood of monsters to practice. Mao Ru drinks blood, trains the body and practices techniques, which is similar to that of a warrior but with more methods than a warrior. He has blood skills that are similar to magic.

Of course, humans are the most intelligent creatures in the world. If they rashly borrow things that do not belong to them, although their strength will be greatly increased, their spirituality will be polluted and their bodies will show the side effect of bestiality. At the same time, if they meet a monster of the same species whose bloodline is thicker than theirs, they will be suppressed or even used in turn.

However, the monsters are now suppressed by the heaven and are hiding in a corner, so there is no need to worry too much.

The two sides confronted each other in the restaurant. The people of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect were tall and strong, with blood boiling. In just one encounter, they were able to suppress the people of the Yang Hua Valley who practiced fire magic.

The two sides just exchanged a few verbal exchanges and greeted each other cordially about their ancestors, and there was not much conflict. It was obvious that before entering the secret realm, all parties were trying their best to accumulate strength and did not want to waste their energy on this unimportant thing.

Just when both sides were about to call it quits and made threats to each other, they agreed to cause trouble again in the secret realm.

A golden figure walked out of the Wanshou Sect, grabbed the collar of the disciple from the Yanghua Valley opposite who was shouting the loudest, and kicked him down from the third floor of the restaurant.

The incident happened suddenly, and Huayanggu hadn't recovered yet. Wow~

Several more figures fell down the stairs. When they came to their senses, they saw that the one who attacked them was the leading elder from the opposite side. They were really being bullied. They became furious and retaliated, attacking the nearby disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

The Ten Thousand Beast Sect was not willing to be outdone. Their own elders had already taken action and taken the lead. How could they remain indifferent? !

For a while, two groups of people were fighting in the restaurant. Xiao Yu huddled in a corner, holding a tea in his hand, and watched the whole fight from beginning to end, eating the melon with gusto.

Later, someone came forward to urgently call a halt to the movement. Needless to say, everyone in Huayang Valley was left with bruises and swollen faces, and suffered a great loss.

After all, the restaurant was a small place and they couldn't use their magic. Instead, the members of the Wanshou Sect, who had excellent physical strength, were able to show off their skills and have a good fight.

A day passed and Xiao Yu returned to Tie Yanran's room without any gain. Xiao Yu was just beginning to react to what happened last night.

As the saying goes, women... need to be coaxed when they are angry.

then……

"What's this?!"

"The gift, ahem... I managed to get it during my trip out of the island and prepared it for you. It's an apology for what I did before."

After thinking about it, I didn't have anything good as a gift. Tie Yanran was young, her cultivation was top-notch, and the power behind her was mysterious. She had no shortage of panaceas. After thinking about it, the only thing she lacked was that.

So he gave away the things he had bought a long time ago.

Tie Yanran didn't notice anything strange about Xiao Yu. She pulled out the stopper of the plain jade bottle and saw several round pills that were different from ordinary pills.

The whole thing is white, like a small fish ball, exuding a fresh and elegant fragrance, and it looks really good.

"Not bad. Since you prepared something specially for me, I will forgive you for offending me before."

Women have always been strange creatures. Compared to whether something is precious or not, they care more about attitude.

Tie Yanran was very happy that Xiao Yu could think of this and was willing to coax her.
