Ye Cheng bid farewell to everyone and was walking in the garden when someone called his name suddenly.

"Brother Ye."

Ye Cheng turned around: "Brother Xia?"

Xia Jun stood not far away, looking into Ye Cheng's eyes, lost in thought for a moment.

He knew Ye Cheng a long time ago, after all, he is "other people's child", who doesn't know the young disciples of the cultivation sect all over the world?Ye Cheng, the first disciple of Qingya, entered Taoism at the age of eight, formed alchemy at fifteen, won one against a hundred at the Qingyun meeting, and has been famous all over the world since then.

But he didn't know before that Ye Cheng was such a person.

The young man with the brocade and jade crown has extremely handsome facial features, but it is difficult for ordinary people to notice his appearance at first glance, but to be attracted by other things first.

He always looks happy, with a smile in his eyes, like a rich man who doesn't know the sorrows of the world. He is obviously cold and desolate, but standing in it, his whole person has a kind of brilliance.But he didn't have the kind of coddling and frivolity brought about by wealth.Walking with a sword behind his back, he has sufficient calm and tenacity.

Xia Jun couldn't help curling her fingers between her sleeves, but her face was gentle: "The day after tomorrow will be the Plum Blossom Festival in Shuying Mountain. Brother Ye, don't you want to stay and have a look?"

"Sparse Shadow Mountain?"

"Yes. Three hundred miles away is Shuying Mountain. There are plum trees all over it. It is named after 'Sparse shadows, horizontal slopes, clear and shallow water'. Every winter, the plum blossom festival is held, and disciples from nearby sects will go to see the flowers. Members, don't be too moody."

Ye Cheng's eyes moved, obviously interested, but he still shook his head: "It will take me five days at the earliest to go back and forth from Qingya, and this year I can't make it in time. In the coming year, I will bring my children over earlier, and then I will meet Brother Xia again." Enjoy the flowers together."

Xia Jun was a little puzzled, and said with a smile: "Is it Qingya's new junior brother?"

Ye Cheng laughed, this kind of smile was different from his usual one, as if every word was subconsciously lightened: "Actually, he is my Taoist companion."

Xia Jun's expression changed slightly: "I haven't heard about Brother Ye holding a joint registration?"

He never thought of this possibility.What is Ye Cheng's identity? If he has a joint Taoist couple, it is impossible for the outside world not to hear about it.

Ye Cheng touched his nose, a little embarrassed: "He is relatively young, and he will have to wait another two years before considering the matter of joining his nationality."

Calculated according to the footsteps when coming, it will take four days to return.On the second night, Ye Cheng lay on the branch, reading the letter from Ji Fangze by the moonlight.

[It's snowing on Qingya. 】

In fact, Ye Cheng knew before he set off that he would most likely not be able to catch up with this year's first snow, so he didn't feel much regret and loss at the time.But at this moment, looking at these simple words and imagining Ji Fangze sitting in front of the window, earnestly lighting the paper cranes, I suddenly realized what it means to return home like an arrow.

Ye Cheng jumped off the branch and hurried on his way overnight with his sword.His speed was so fast that he didn't even care to keep out all the severe cold and cold wind. Occasionally mixed with snowflakes and fine ice edges, it was really not a good experience, but Ye Cheng was inexplicably happy.

He is usually happy most of the time, even if he is boring to practice swords, he can still find some fun out of it, but today's happiness is different from usual.

He cloaked the rain all the way, and rushed to meet Ji Fangze, feeling as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

……

The situation was critical, Shi Sang didn't dare to run far, and went straight to Poyun Peak to rescue soldiers.When the elders of Poyun Peak's deacon arrived, the battle was almost over.

Wei Jinyuan was injured, and Ji Fangze stood in front of him. Except for an extra scratch on his face, he didn't suffer any other injuries.On the contrary, the few people on the opposite side were even worse. They all lost their combat power, and even two of them were seriously injured and unconscious.

The identities of these people were quickly made clear.Recently, water ghosts have been raging in Yunze, and the head of the Yu family of Yunze came to Qingya to discuss this matter. These people are the followers of the head of the Yu family.

The elder took the seriously injured person under custody, and took the others to see the head.

The head of the sect was originally discussing matters in the hall, but upon hearing the pass, he quickly let them in.

On top of the main hall, apart from several high-level officials from Qingya, there was also a middle-aged man whom Ji Fangze didn't know.The man's smiling appearance hardly made people feel friendly, instead there was a sense of coldness for no reason.

The middle-aged man clapped his hands slowly: "Three golden pills, two Nascent Souls, no, plus that Elder Wen, there are three Nascent Souls in total. This little brother can't do anything about it. It must be a long time to get a baby." Is it time, or have you entered distraction?"

The smile on the head's usual face has completely disappeared: "Compared to this, shouldn't Master Yu explain to me first, fellow Taoists of the Yu family, why did you appear here and hurt me, Qingya? disciple?"

It has been several years since Ji Fangze and Yu Ji's Liang Zi, but there was a big commotion at that time, and no one would forget it.The peak master of Liuxia Peak was full of smiles: "The Yu family shot and hurt people, could it be that they were dissatisfied with the trial of the Qingya Discipline Hall? If you bring people to kick the mountain, there are not enough people."

Yu Ji attacked his fellow disciples without reason. In fact, he should have been kicked out of Qingya as early as the incident happened, but no one could prove that Yu Ji really wanted to kill him, and after Ji Fangze restrained him, he shot and seriously injured him.After discussing with everyone in Qingya, they each played [-] boards and settled the matter.

The head of the Yu family glanced at Yu Ji casually, without any emotion in his eyes: "He was injured instead of hurting others, but he did it on his own, and he lost the face of the Yu family. I really didn't come for him."

The head of the sect said lightly: "Then I'm really curious about Patriarch Yu's intentions."

Patriarch Yu's eyes fell on Ji Fangze: "I was just suddenly curious about one thing. After this little brother restrained Yu Ji, he still killed him. Is it because he was angry at being attacked or because he couldn't control it at that time?" Wait, do you want to kill people and devour souls?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in Qingya's face sank, and swords rang in the hall.A peak owner sternly said, "What do you mean!"

"What I mean is, this little brother is so young, but he can have such a cultivation level. I haven't seen many people in the human race in my life when I'm less than [-] years old, but this kind of thing in the abyss is quite common."

"Senior brother conceived at 25, and senior brother Mo of the Xuanbing Sect was only 27 when he conceived a baby. Qingya has dozens of generations, and there are seventeen seniors who conceived before the age of 30. If you still think that is not enough, Qingya In the past, there was a real person in Ya, who couldn't build a foundation for 40 years, practiced swordsmanship hard, and finally entered Taoism overnight and rose to Dacheng."

Wei Jinyuan's eyes were full of sarcasm: "You haven't seen many, because you have little knowledge. Don't give up on yourself just because your children's talents can't keep up. Usually, marry a few wives with good brains, and the family still has hope. of."

He, a junior, interrupted rashly and spoke rudely, but Qingya didn't reprimand him. Instead, they all sat on the ground with old gods, Qingya's attitude towards this matter can be seen.

The smile on Patriarch Yu's face disappeared, and he said lightly, "A child of the Wei family."

Wei Jinyuan said righteously: "Yes, just keep the account on our Wei family."

"Don't expand the scope of the attack." After the clear voice fell, a young man stepped in from the door, and said with a smile, "There is an injustice and a debt, and the son is not the fault of the father. Master Yu, you just put the blame on his father." It's on the head."

This is a young man dressed in fine clothes, he looks more like a rich man, but the ordinary sword on his back shows his identity as a sword cultivator.

Ye Cheng first glanced at Ji Fangze and Wei Jinyuan, seeing that there was nothing serious about them, he finally let go of his heart, and saluted everyone in the seat: "I have seen the master and all the uncles."

He returned home happily, and when he looked up, he saw a mess, flowers and trees fell, and even the house collapsed. If Poyunfeng's junior hadn't informed him of the inside story in time, he would have been scared to death.

He didn't notice, when he looked over, Ji Fangze froze for a moment.When he looked away, the young man who was standing there with an indifferent face quietly hid behind Wei Jinyuan.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly calmed down a lot, and the head patted his beard: "Why did you come back so soon? Is this trip going well?"

Ye Cheng said politely: "Report to Master, the disciple has brought back the things in good condition."

"Disciple wants to ask Patriarch Yu a few words." After getting affirmation, Ye Cheng turned around, "It's not the first day that Fangze stayed in Qingya. Seven or eight years have passed since the incident of hurting someone. Patriarch Yu suddenly suspected that Fangze was killing people and devouring souls. There is always a reason, right?"

"Patriarch Yu doesn't need to try around the bush, and don't mention that set of rhetoric about high cultivation at a young age. Let's not say how ridiculous it is, Patriarch Yu probably didn't know Fangze's specific cultivation level before looking for someone to come to the door. It’s impossible to send such people there.”

Even he doesn't know okay.They are usually inseparable, but whenever there is a fight, he is the one who fights. At most, Ji Fangze just sets up a formation to help, Ye Cheng doesn't even know that he can fight!

The head of the Yu family looked at Ye Cheng: "In just three years, hundreds of Abyss survivors committed crimes and were killed. The world is full of turmoil, but there are still people who choose to listen to the bewitchment of that voice and practice Abyss' skills. Could it be that the Abyss' legacy Are they all lunatics and idiots? I have always wondered about this question. Until I discovered something not long ago. They are not stupid, but they are addicted to it. Knowing that it is a dead end, they still can’t help but step on it.”

But Ye Cheng couldn't understand this: "Before they practiced the abyss technique, they had never been addicted to swallowing souls. Where did the addiction come from?"

The head of the Yu family said calmly: "They have been involved. All the descendants of the abyss have been involved, including the one you guarded behind."

The moment his voice fell, Ji Fangze felt the fear of extinction rising from his heart.He has never had such a strong killing intent in his heart, even if Ye Cheng could not retreat and Yu Ji uttered wild words, it cannot be compared with this moment.Fortunately, in these years, I remind myself all the time that restraint has almost become an instinct.So he held back abruptly and didn't move a step.

He tried his best to calm himself down. He couldn't win in this scene, and even if he could win, he couldn't do anything.Otherwise, what would Ye Cheng think of him?

He didn't want to become a bloodthirsty monster in Ye Cheng's heart.

So he could only stand stiffly on the spot, waiting for the guillotine to fall from the top of his head little by little.

Patriarch Yu took a sip of tea, and said to himself: "Why is the population of Abyss always small? Because when the children of Abyss are in their womb, they need the soul of their mother to support them. This is their instinct, although it is not like swallowing souls. , devoured the mother's body, but the pregnancy is dangerous, coupled with the damage of the soul, the mother's body can be said to be close to death. Therefore, there are very few women in the abyss who are willing to conceive, and the abyss will hit the idea on the women in the world. And bring A child with abyssal blood, from birth, is stained with the mother's blood debt, with a soul-devouring addiction. It's just that this kind of support from the mother's body is not detectable in the spiritual sea."

"Ye Xiaoyou gets along very closely with him, so it must be clearer what symptoms he has that are different from ordinary people." Patriarch Yu looked at Gao Zuo and chuckled, "I thought Qingya didn't know at first, but seeing everyone's reactions, it's really shocking. I was taken aback. How could you tolerate such a wicked person?"

Ye Cheng was dumbfounded.He subconsciously looked at everyone on the stage.The faces of the elders sank like water, but they did not refute.So Ye Cheng knew that what he said was true.

He used to think that Uncle Mo Ying died of a simple dystocia.

At this moment, Ye Cheng wanted to understand many things.

Why did Mo Fan force Fangze to "meditate" since he was a child, and other elders did not interfere with this obviously radical method; why Fangze was so afraid of the cold at night after he had entered the Tao; why the always open-minded master did not approve of him joining Fangze...

In the silence, the master of Liuxia Peak closed his eyes, and a trace of sadness flashed in his hoarse voice: "The ignorant child in the womb acts entirely on instinct, how can he be convicted of a crime because of this?"

When Junior Sister Mo was rescued back to Qingya, she was already in the late stage of pregnancy, and there was no way for her to give birth.Later, Junior Sister Mo died in childbirth, and they were also deeply saddened.But after they discussed, they still decided to raise Ji Fangze.Because they knew in their hearts that Ji Fangze didn't understand anything and he was innocent after all.As long as Ji Fangze didn't take that irreversible step, they never thought of killing Ji Fangze.This has nothing to do with whether he is Ye Cheng's Taoist companion or not.

"The posthumous children left by Shen Yuan in the world may only be a few hundred at most. These hundreds of people can't bear it. Why can he bear it? What's more, it happens to be him, young and young, who has such cultivation For the boundary?"

A peak master in Qingya said in a deep voice: "When he came back from abroad, he had tested the spiritual sea in public, and it was clean."

"Really Mo Ying from Qingya was captured by the abyss demon back then. Ji Fangze must be of noble blood in the abyss, how can he know that there is no way to avoid detection? How do you prove that he has not done so?"

"You can't produce evidence. Is there any reason in this world to make a false accusation and force the defendant to prove his innocence? How do you prove that he did it?"

Ye Cheng, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to be shocked by this matter, and suddenly said: "I dare to guarantee with my life that he has not done it. Does Patriarch Yu also dare to guarantee with his life that he has done it?"

Ye Cheng raised his head and spoke calmly: "If Patriarch Yu dares, I will fight with Patriarch Yu to the death."

"You die, it's over; I die, he is with me."

"Ah Cheng, what nonsense." Before Patriarch Yu could open his mouth, the head of the sect stood up and made a final decision, "We Qingya are all rough people with swords, but we also know that there is a reason to say it. Patriarch Yu will meet again in the future. If there is no definite evidence for something, it is better not to open your mouth, so as not to cause trouble, it is not good."

"It seems that Qing Ya is determined to protect him."

The head of the Yu family turned to leave, but the several Yu family members who followed him were stopped by the Qingya disciple who was guarding the door holding a sword.

Even the good-tempered Liuxia Peak Master couldn't help but sneered and said, "Could it be that your Yu family has finished their troubles in Qingya, and you can come and leave whenever you want? Since these few like to wander around Qingya so much, why not?" Stay in Qingya as a guest. If there is another time, Patriarch Yu may have to live in Qingya for a few years."

Patriarch Yu finally got angry: "I came to Qingya because I didn't want Qingya to be obsessed for a while and go astray. You believe in him so much, but you don't know whether people in the world believe it or not!"

The leader is calm: "I, Qingya, have guarded the human race for thousands of years. In the battle of the abyss 20 years ago, more than half of them were killed or injured. Qingya holds the sword for the sake of morality in his heart. He never cared about what people in the world think."

Patriarch Yu left with a flick of his sleeves, leaving only the people in Qingya in the hall.

Ji Fangze almost staggered to Ye Cheng's side, didn't even dare to grab Ye Cheng's hand, just pulled his sleeve, his face was as pale as paper: "Brother, I really don't, I feel uncomfortable, but I Didn't hurt anyone. I really..."

"I know." Ye Cheng interrupted him, carefully touched the wound on Ji Fangze's face, and smiled at him, "You go home and wait for me first, and give yourself some medicine, okay? I still have some You have to talk to your master about it.”

Ji Fangze didn't dare to let go of Ye Cheng, wishing he could cut out Linghai's heart on the spot to show him, so as to prove his innocence.But he hesitated for a moment, and obediently let go: "Okay."

He reluctantly twitched the corner of his mouth: "I'm waiting for senior brother at home."

The head waited for Ji Fangze and Wei Jinyuan to leave, and wanted to ask about the process of going out this time.

Ye Cheng suddenly knelt down.

"What's the trouble?"

Ye Cheng kowtowed heavily: "This disciple is unfilial, please ask Master to drive me away from Qingya."

The author has something to say: In fact, I think Ye Cheng loves Xiaofang quite a lot, but he is a "straight man" in a certain sense, and he likes to make children happy everywhere.So usually I don't care about it, but when it comes to major events, I will never be afraid.
