Yan Yue stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around. She looked at the figure that was running towards her. Her running footsteps made thumping sounds on the ground. Occasionally, she would step on some small twigs and make a crisp sound. Her hair was messy and it was unknown whether it was because of the wind or because she was running too fast. Even the hem of her dress was not settled. When the running figure finally came to a stop, the fluttering hem of her dress and hair hung down quietly. Only a few strands of her hair were left fluttering slightly.
Youyou covered her chest with one hand and bent over slightly to take a few deep breaths. Only then did she straighten up to look at the person in front of her.
Just as she opened her mouth to speak, the person in front of her suddenly raised a hand and extended it towards her. Youyou blinked her eyes, somewhat confused. By the time she reacted, the cold fingertips had already touched her forehead. Although it was only for a short moment, it was only after a few seconds that Youyou took half a step back in shock. Her hands were clenched into fists, and she bit her lower lip slightly. Her eyes looked to the side, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She dodged to look at the person in front of her, not daring to look at him.
"Did you slack off on your cultivation?"
Yan Yue shifted her gaze from her fingertips to You You's body. She continued, "Let's not talk about cultivation, even your physical skills have declined. When I wasn't around, what were you doing?"
Towards the end, Yan Yue's tone became slightly colder. Although it was just a little, Youyou still noticed it.
"Yan Gege!
I, I … "Youyou mumbled for a long time but could not say a complete sentence. Her constantly moving fingers, lowered eyes, and pale face all showed the fear in her heart. She was like a child who had done something wrong standing in front of a strict teacher.
After a few breaths of silence, Yan Yue turned around and slowly walked away. Youyou was still standing in the same spot, and her expression was very lonely.
After walking for a dozen steps, Yan Yue slowly stopped. Looking at Youyou's dazed appearance, Yan Yue's eyes flashed with a faint trace of helplessness. She let out a long sigh.
She reached behind her with her left hand and took out the long sword strapped on her back. "Catch." After saying that, she threw the long sword in her hand.
Looking at the object flying towards her, Youyou subconsciously reached out to catch it. It was a sword!
"'Musha', its name. At the very least, you have to give me the ability to use its strength. It is a growth type magic tool. When you can truly control it, it will belong to you."
After saying that, without waiting for Youyou to reply, Yan Yue quickly disappeared from Youyou's line of sight.
After walking for a long time, Yan Yue stopped next to a tree. She clenched her left hand into a fist and punched a thick tree trunk. The green leaves fell to the ground under the power of this punch. Several long and thick cracks appeared where she hit, and some milky white liquid also came out drop by drop.
Why was she a bit angry …
Yan Gege, Yan Gege, Yan Gege … brother?
I'm not. Yan Yue looked at the ground with a somewhat sad expression. She was not brother, because Youyou was not her sister, not …
Big sister, come down!
Let's ice skate!
Hey!
Look at me, I'm amazing, right? I run fast, right?
Don't you run fast with one leg? If you have the ability, learn from me with two legs!
Big sister?
You're too heavy to run, right?
Hehe!
Yes, definitely. Big sister, you need to lose weight, haha!
… …
Big sister!
Are we going to climb the mountain? Let's go dig for orchids, okay?
Okay, okay, I want to go too.
You can't go, you're too young. Let's talk about it in a few years, in case we have to carry you up the mountain. You can't go, I'll go with you.
No, I want to go. If you don't want me to go, I'll tell mom. Then you guys can forget about going.
… …
Big sister, when are you coming back?
Are you going to come back after Chinese New Year?
Big sister, big sister, bring me good food when you come back.
You only know how to eat, do you know anything else?
Big sister, when are you coming back, I'll go and pick you up. I'll bring my brothers and sisters too, the three of us will go and pick you up together …
Big sister!
Big sister!
Big sister … Big sister …
"En!"
Yan Yue cried out in pain. She held her right shoulder with her left hand and slowly turned her body around. She leaned against the tree with a thud. It hurt!
No, it doesn't hurt, ah!
She was too pampered in the past, so now she was defeated by a little pain. How useless, Yan Yue!
"Sure enough, after I left, you did something again."
After saying that, Alpha Suiren slowly descended from the sky. He looked at Yan Yue who was leaning against the tree with a complicated expression.
His tone was a bit cold, but there seemed to be a hint of worry hidden in it.
After taking a deep look at Yan Yue, Alpha Suiren released the flying magic tool, Ice Lotus, and stepped on it. He leaned forward slightly and didn't say anything.
Yan Yue understood and slowly walked to the front of the ice lotus. She looked back at the tree that she had punched and silently apologized in her heart. Then, she also stood on the ice lotus. Only then did the ice lotus slowly rise and fly forward.
Alpha Suiren kept his back to Yan Yue and didn't say a word. Yan Yue wasn't the kind of person to start a conversation. The two suddenly became silent.
Alpha Suiren clenched his fists and loosened them. He obviously had a lot of questions, but he found that he couldn't say a word. What should he say? Why did she lie to him? What did she want to explain? What happened to her right hand? Or why did she dress up as a man?
At first, he was very shocked and angry at her for hiding it from him. However, after his anger subsided, there was a different feeling in his heart. He couldn't tell what it was, but what was it that made him frustrated. He was very conflicted. It was clearly her fault, but he didn't know how to face her now.
In the end, he was still angry. He was angry that she lied to him, so he simply remained silent.
Yan Yue was once again taken to the Ice Spring Cave by Alpha Suiren. Before entering, Yan Yue was first given a blue pill, and then she was taken to the deepest part of the cave, a place that Yan Yue had never seen before.
Cold spring water flowed all around her, but perhaps because she had taken the pill, she felt that the cold air was blocked outside, and she didn't feel cold at all.
Whether it was around her, above her, or under her feet, the spring water flowed backward. The spring water above her head didn't seem to fall, and it didn't seem to be controlled by any spiritual power. It was really amazing.
Occasionally, there would be some ice fish jumping around from all sides.
The Ice Lotus didn't fly in the air anymore, but floated on the surface of the spring below, moving forward against the flow of the water.
Finally, they came to a large ice cave, and the spring water disappeared. The ice cave was empty, except for the place where they came in, there were walls all around.
If there was anything different, it would be that the color of the ice on the wall in front of them was not the same as the surrounding ice, but Yan Yue couldn't tell what the difference was.
Alpha Suiren led Yan Yue to the different ice, and motioned for Yan Yue to lift up her right sleeve and put her right hand into the ice.
Such hard ice, how can she put her hand into it?
Yan Yue was skeptical, but she did as she was told. When she touched it, she found that the ice was soft, and her right hand easily went in.
Slowly, the originally soft ice began to harden, wrapping Yan Yue's hand tighter and tighter. The cold air began to penetrate into Yan Yue's right hand from the outside, passing through her skin, flesh, and bone marrow. Finally, it followed the meridians all the way to the position of her heart.
Alpha Suiren raised the script and wanted to get closer, but he put it down in the end. This was for her own good.
"This spiritual ice is very helpful for your recovery, although the process is a bit painful."
After saying that, Sui Lun Yi walked to a place a little further away and stood with his back facing Yan Yue. He knew that with this child's willpower, this little bit of coldness would definitely not do anything to her, but still, he could not bear to see her in pain. Alas!
What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over!
"Thank you …" After saying this, her heart began to ache. Again, again, again, this kind of nuisance, when will it end?
It's true that you want to be strong and independent, but if you don't have the ability, why are you showing off?
Are you trying to make people feel sorry for you, or for your ridiculous face?
In the end, you always show off again and again, and get hurt again and again!
Every time you think of yourself like that, don't you feel ironic?
Yan Yue, oh Yan Yue, when will you learn to be obedient? Don't let others pay for your willfulness. Don't use the excuse of being strong and loyal. Remember, you don't deserve it!
The two fell into a long silence again.
Yan Yue wasn't in the mood, and Alpha Suiren didn't know what to say. He wasn't a talkative person before, and his temperament wasn't as warm and cheerful as his junior brother Yi Yixian.

Somewhere in the inner layer of the Tianyi Sect, there was an ancient Chinese palace. Rows of bright lights hung under the eaves, so although it was night, it was still exceptionally bright.
Dong!
Dong!
Dong!
There was a gentle knock on the door, and someone who was meditating in the room suddenly opened her eyes. Her sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the door and stare at the person knocking outside.
"What is it?"
His voice was mellow and full, sonorous and powerful. It wasn't hard to tell that this person was an extremely stubborn person. His words didn't allow anyone to question him. He was the second elder of the Tianyi Sect in charge of discipline and punishment, Wang Fei.
After Sect Leader Yan, the mysterious Hito, and Great Elder Ling Shuangkui, he had the highest status.
"Second Elder, there's a young master called Death Eye outside. He wants to see you."
"Death Eye?"
Wang Fei was shocked, and then the sharp aura around him disappeared completely. He changed into an amiable expression, "Let him come directly to my room!
Let everyone who's waiting around leave. "
"Yes, Second Elder!"
Death Eye pushed open the door to the room and closed it behind him. He looked at the smiling middle-aged uncle in front of him, his uncle.
"Long time no see, Uncle!
How have you been? "
Wang Fei slapped Death Eye's shoulder and laughed loudly, "Haha!
You brat, you've been here for so long and you haven't come to see me. Why are you free today?
In the blink of an eye, that little brat has grown up so much!
You're just like your father when he was young. "
"Don't make fun of me, Uncle!
Ten years is just a blink of an eye to you! "
Death Eye found a chair and sat down. Wang Fei also sat down next to him.
"I didn't believe it when I heard from your father that you're here. I didn't think you'd really come. What?
You don't want the throne anymore? "Wang Fei said as he ate the fruit on the table.
"What's mine naturally can't run away." Death Eye leaned back in his chair and ate the fruit. His eyes were squinted, and the corners of his mouth were raised. His expression couldn't be seen clearly.
"Hm?"
Wang Fei glanced at Death Eye and asked suspiciously, "I feel like you're hiding something. What, you're joking around with your uncle? You didn't come all the way here just to chat with me, right?"
"Haha!
You know me the best. "Death Eye stood up and walked to Wang Fei's side. He leaned over and whispered into his ear.
Wang Fei's expression changed a few times. In the end, he laughed heartily. "That's easy. Leave it to me. But her identity …"
"A woman with a secret, that's even more interesting, hehe!
Your nephew thanks you, Uncle. "
