Yun Roumu began to seriously ponder.
When she was young, there was a spiritual beast riot, and the village where Yun Roumu lived was razed to the ground.
Only she and her brother were spared.
Later, her brother said he would go hunting to feed Yun Roumu, but he never returned.
If it weren't for the fortunate encounter with Luo Ze, the leader of Azure Cloud Sect, little Yun Roumu might have starved to death.
Even now, as the Saintess of Azure Cloud Sect, Yun Roumu has never stopped searching for her brother's whereabouts.
But there has been no news at all.
Could it be that the man who has been helping her is her brother?
Yun Roumu felt a surge of emotion.
Immediately, she took out the portrait that Ye Yu had drawn for her from her storage ring.
Looking at the image of the short, ugly man on it, Yun Roumu's initially excited heart suddenly cooled down.
No, this kind of man could never be her brother.
Her brother wouldn't be so ugly!
No matter when, in any era, appearance is justice.
Looks can provide the most basic emotional value.
Yun Roumu sighed softly, calming the turmoil in her heart.
She quickly put away the portrait back into her storage ring.
With a solemn expression, she said, "That shouldn't be my relative. Moreover, I can't understand why he would intervene to save us."
"If you don't understand, just let it go."
Ye Yu didn't intend to dwell too much on this issue. As long as he successfully diverted Yun Roumu's suspicion away from him.
Besides, now that the roasted duck was also done, Ye Yu didn't have time to continue this idle talk.
Although it lacked many seasonings, the meat of the Liuhe Duck itself was very delicious.
After roasting, its original taste was already intoxicating.
Ye Yu immediately tore off a duck leg and started eating heartily.
Seeing this scene, Yun Roumu reached out and also wanted to grab a duck leg to eat.
But she was stopped by Ye Yu.
"Senior sister, what do you want to do?"
"Of course, I want to eat roasted duck."
Yun Roumu said, reaching out again.
But once again, Ye Yu dodged her.
He said seriously, "Senior sister, since you are already in the Nascent Soul realm, presumably, you have already stopped eating food. Just absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth should be enough. Why do you still want to eat meat?"
"I want to eat, can't I?"
Yun Roumu's head was suddenly filled with black lines.
After reaching the Golden Core stage, cultivators would undergo fasting. Just relying on spiritual energy entering their bodies could satisfy their nutritional needs.
Normal food would become a burden to cultivators, detrimental to cultivation.
However, occasionally eating some spiritual beast meat was harmless.
Moreover, Ye Yu's roasting was so fragrant, how could she possibly resist?
Yun Roumu reached out directly to snatch it.
But Ye Yu clearly didn't want to share the food with her.
Naturally, he resisted.
Neither used their spiritual power and fought over the roasted duck.
Soon, Ye Yu bit into the duck leg and pinned Yun Roumu down.
He even held her wrists in place.
Just then, a playful voice sounded.
"Good disciple, why are you biting on meat while doing this kind of thing? Is it for... the mood?"
Ye Yu and Yun Roumu suddenly looked up.
They saw Hongluan leaning against the entrance of the cave, looking at them with interest.
Immediately after, Sect Master Luo Ze and other elders also arrived here.
Seeing this scene, their faces turned red.
"You two, separate now!"
Ye Yu and Yun Roumu glanced at each other.
They also felt that this posture could easily lead to misunderstandings.
So they immediately backed away, explaining, "Sect Master, it's not what you think. My junior brother and I were just messing around, we didn't do anything."
Hongluan, enjoying the excitement, decisively added, "Right, nothing has been done yet. But who knows what might happen later, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Roumu blushed deeply.
"Let's go, let's talk about this later."
Luo Ze swung his sleeves and turned to walk outside.
The other elders and Yun Roumu quickly followed.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu approached Hongluan.
Just as he was about to speak, Hongluan smiled and said, "Kid, I could see through your tricks early on."
"But I didn't expect this much. Just two days out, and even the Saintess fell for you. You have a bright future."
Ye Yu was speechless.
He quickly waved his hand and said, "Master, it's not what you imagine. Senior sister and I are innocent."
Hongluan chuckled, "Innocent enough to ride on someone?"
Ye Yu covered his face with one hand.
He simply stopped explaining.
He could see it clearly. Master Hongluan had no intention of listening to his explanation.
Why waste the effort?
...
Inside the Blood Demon Sect.
Que Yun, pale and still in shock, looked towards the north.
This morning, to assist the second elder Ni Kai in ambushing Yun Roumu, he led nearly a hundred cultivators from the Blood Demon Sect, along with nearly fifty cultivators brought by the fifth elder of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.
Together they attacked the Azure Cloud Sect, intending to prevent them from rescuing.
Initially, things went smoothly.
The Blood Demon Sect suddenly took action, catching the Azure Cloud Sect off guard.
And the cultivation of Luo Ze, the Sect Master of Azure Cloud Sect, was on par with his.
For a while, neither could gain the upper hand.
Just when Que Yun thought everything was under control, unexpectedly, a sword aura suddenly shot out from within the Azure Cloud Sect, directly targeting Que Yun.
If it weren't for several elders sacrificing themselves, Que Yun would have died on the spot.
Although he is still alive now, he is severely injured and won't recover in decades.
Que Yun knew, the sword aura must have come from that woman in the Azure Cloud Sect.
Apart from her, no one else had such strength.
Damn it.
Wasn't that woman always indifferent to sect matters? Why did she suddenly act today?
Overwhelmed with anger, Que Yun coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He calmly wiped it with his palm, his eyes filled with deep hatred.
Just wait.
Once Yun Roumu is in our hands, it won't be long before the Azure Cloud Sect pays for its debts in blood!
"Report to the Sect Master, Elder Ni is not within the sect."
A disciple dressed in black robes immediately came to report.
This left Que Yun feeling very puzzled.
It's already past time.
Could there have been a mistake somewhere?
Que Yun dared not delay.
He immediately ordered all capable individuals within the Blood Demon Sect to search for Elder Ni Kai.
Watching only a few scattered people leaving the sect, Que Yun was well aware.
After this period of battle, the Blood Demon Sect had already been battered.
But as long as they could get Yun Roumu, then no matter how great the cost, it would be worth it!
...
The next day, Ye Yu immediately went to the Enforcement Hall to find Wei Aoshu.
But unexpectedly, as soon as they met, Wei Aoshu's expression was incredibly excited.
Immediately, she pulled him into a secluded place.
Setting up several layers of barriers, she exclaimed with great joy, "Junior Brother, you're truly amazing. Sneaking around with the Saintess in the cave. When it comes to being an undercover agent, no one can match you."
"How about this, use the Saintess's feelings to your advantage, and get her to defect to the Ten Thousand Souls Hall. With this achievement, you'll at least start as an Elder. Once you prosper in the future, don't forget about me!"
Ye Yu's expression turned extremely strange, "Who told you all this?"
"Don't you know? Your story with the Saintess has spread throughout the entire Azure Cloud Sect. There are even several versions."
"Among them, the disciples of Dao Preaching Peak stayed up all night writing your exploits into a book. It's called 'The Untold Story of Me and the Saintess.'"
Wei Aoshu gave a thumbs-up and said seriously, "Junior Brother, formidable!"
