The woman next to the man looked only eighteen or nineteen years old. She was extremely beautiful, had a heroic air, and her skin was as white as snow.
She was wearing a sky blue long skirt, which outlined her body curves breathtakingly. As the skirt fluttered in the wind, the tulle at the calves occasionally rolled up, revealing a piece of round and snow-white skin.
Even Mulian, who had always been proud of her looks and figure, felt ashamed at the first sight.
Mu Lian did not know the man, but she felt that the woman looked somewhat familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere, but she just couldn't remember where.
And when her spiritual sense carefully scanned the two people opposite, Mu's pretty face turned pale.
Because the auras of the two people in her consciousness were erratic, she had no way of determining their cultivation levels.
With her intelligence, she naturally knew what this meant, which was that the other party's cultivation was so strong that she could not detect it.
You know, she has already entered the middle stage of foundation building. Most cultivators of the same level can sense it, and it is impossible for them to be so secretive.
Being blocked by such a person, Mu Lian felt cold sweat on her back in just a moment. She had no time to think and immediately bowed.
"Two seniors, we are from the Wuling Sect..."
There was another person who spoke with her.
"Young Master? You... you are Young Master..."
That was Sun Guoshu's voice. At this time, he had already stepped down from the insect, opened his mouth wide, and wanted to go forward, but he looked surprised and confused, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"Hehe, I was wondering if there was a familiar aura here. I heard from Senior Sister Bai that you had also entered the sect. It's a bit surprising to meet you this way."
The short-haired man had a smile on his face.
"Sir, it's really you. You didn't fall into... into the Yinmo Cliff..."
Sun Guoshu had regained some consciousness from his daze at this point. He just stopped and looked a little dazed, muttering to himself.
Mu Lian was interrupted by Sun Guoshu's behavior. She looked at Sun Guoshu strangely. From his words, it was obvious that Sun Guoshu knew her and they seemed to be very familiar with each other.
This made her feel relieved immediately, but after hearing the strange address from Sun Guoshu, she didn't know what the relationship between the two parties was.
She knew that Sun Guoshu was a casual cultivator, yet he actually called the other party "Young Master".
"Could this be the son of some immortal cultivation family that Sun Guoshu knew in the past?"
Afterwards, she heard Sun Guoshu mention the Yinmo Cliff and was shocked, because that was the place where the final battle with the demons took place nearly a hundred years ago.
"Is this person also a monk who participated in that fierce battle?"
Now, there are no cultivators guarding the cracks in the Yinmo Cliff. It is said that the passage between the two worlds has been blown up there, and a huge formation has been set up by a mysterious ancestor of the family.
At that time, Mu Lian was at the peak of the Qi Condensation Stage and was not sent to the battlefield. Instead, he tried to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage within the sect. Therefore, most of what he knew about the war was hearsay.
Li Yan looked at Sun Guoshu, who had not yet recovered from the shock, and felt infinite emotion in his heart.
When the other party was in the middle stage of foundation building, I had just succeeded in building my foundation. The next time they met was in Fengliang Mountain, and nearly a hundred years had passed in the blink of an eye.
Although Sun Guoshu's cultivation has improved, if we calculate the time, he should be approaching the end of his life.
Zhao Min remained silent as always. She didn't know Sun Guoshu, so she looked at Mu Lian on the side.
At a glance, he noticed the logo embroidered on the cuffs of the other party's sect's robes, and it turned out to be the same lineage as his own - "Bulifeng".
It’s just that I don’t know the other person. I think that when I was there, this girl should not have been a foundation-building cultivator, otherwise she should have known me.
Except for Xiaozhu Peak, the other peaks of the Wuliang Sect have countless low-level disciples, and new disciples join every year. Zhao Min naturally would not care about those people one by one.
Mu Lian didn't know Zhao Min, but because of Zhao Min's special identity, she almost never went out of Buli Peak and spent most of her time in seclusion practicing.
Whenever she went out, she usually went to the back mountain of Xiaozhu Peak, and there were almost no low-level disciples who could see her.
However, Mulian had once seen Zhao Min from afar by chance, so she still had some memories of her.
"I'll talk about my business later. You must have swallowed a lot of pills before, but you haven't refined them yet. Your breath is unstable. You look like you're running for your life. Is someone chasing you?"
With his and Zhao Min's cultivation levels, they could tell at a glance that something was wrong with the two people in front of them. They were flying towards the sect with such disordered auras.
However, Li Yan looked at Sun Guoshu with a strange look in his eyes.
If he saw it correctly, Sun Guoshu and the female disciple from Buli Peak were almost sticking together, and Sun Guoshu was saying something in her ear.
They looked very intimate, but Li Yan was not a gossipy person. He just thought about it in his mind but did not ask.
Li Yan's question had added some magical power to his voice. The words entered Sun Guoshu's mind, and his body shook slightly, and his consciousness immediately became clear.
"Senior, who are you? Why are you teasing me like this..."
Sun Guoshu gritted his teeth and did not answer Li Yan's question. However, as soon as he said this, Mu Lian, who had just put her mind at ease, changed her expression. Sun Guoshu felt that these two people were illusions
Li Yan sighed helplessly in his heart. He had fallen into the crack of Yinmo Cliff. It had been nearly a hundred years since then. He suddenly appeared like this. Sun Guoshu really couldn't believe it.
He hesitated for a moment and immediately sent a message to Sun Guoshu.
"You tricked Senior Sister Bai in Peiyang Market. You wanted to get the ancient ape-shaped puppet... In Fengliang Mountain, I took you to Zhouyang Town to rescue the monks from the South Sea. On the way, we met..."
After Li Yan simply transmitted his message for a dozen breaths, Sun Guoshu's facial muscles began to tremble.
Although these things are not a big secret, apart from the few people who arranged and carried out the mission, who would care about the past experiences of a small cultivator
This kind of thing happened everywhere during the war with the demons.
"Young Master, it's really you, you... you are still alive..."
"Okay, answer my question just now!" Li Yan felt that Sun Guoshu was a little fussy, so he immediately stopped sending messages.
"Oh, we were previously chased by two monks from the Ten-Step Academy because this junior sister got a 'Shadow Void Stone'..."
Sun Guoshu still felt as if he was in a fog, but he couldn't help but secretly glance at Zhao Min. However, he didn't know her and could only guess Zhao Min's identity in his heart.
In the final battle at Yinmo Cliff, he was far away from Li Yan and the others, and he was also in the melee. He was busy saving his own life, so he did not see the scene of Zhao Min throwing herself into the crack of Yinmo Cliff.
However, he had been in the Wuliang Sect for so many years, and later heard Bai Rou talk about the situation at Xiaozhu Peak, and only then did he know that Master Wei had been looking for the whereabouts of Li Yan and his daughter.
Until later, after Bai Rou left, he would occasionally inquire about the affairs of Xiaozhu Peak, but he never got any news about Li Yan, as if he had completely perished in that battle.
Sun Guoshu finished telling what had just happened in a daze.
"Oh? So that's how it is, Shibuyuan..."
After listening to this, Li Yan nodded, then released his spiritual sense and looked in one direction in just a moment.
Just as he looked over, Zhao Min's cold voice came over.
"I go!"
Then, her figure disappeared in a flash.
"This is indeed a Jindan cultivator..."
Sun Guoshu smiled bitterly in his heart. It was not normal for them to see a Jindan cultivator whenever they wanted.
While Mu Lian breathed a sigh of relief, she was still constantly guessing the identities of Li Yan and the other man.
Not only did the other party know Sun Guoshu, but he was also not Sun Guoshu's enemy. There was finally some good news in the past few days.
Therefore, when Sun Guoshu was narrating, she remained respectful and did not interrupt. Now seeing Zhao Min suddenly disappear, she was delighted, as these two seniors were obviously going to help them.
After a few breaths, Sun Guoshu's voice came again.
"Young Master... Young Master, you have also formed a pill?"
His voice was a little dry and full of mixed emotions. Although he had expected this, Sun Guoshu still wanted Li Yan to confirm it in person.
“Hehehe… You can also strive for the Golden Core. Find some time in the next few days to come and see me. I have something that may be able to help you.
Or if you have any requests, you can let me know and I will see if I can help you out!"
Li Yan did not answer directly, but said with a smile that he was in a very happy mood at the moment. Seeing Sun Guoshu reminded him of many things in the past.
For a moment, the sadness caused by the small mountain village in my heart was diluted a lot.
Sun Guoshu's body trembled when he heard this, and then a look of surprise and joy appeared on his face, but before he could say anything, Li Yan continued to ask questions.
"By the way, what's the situation at Xiaozhu Peak now?"
“Sir, Xiaozhu Peak is now managed by Uncle Li Wuyi, and Peak Master Wei had already successfully formed a baby fifty years ago. Now it is our Uncle Wei’s turn.
But Madam Wei is still in the Jindan stage. It is said that this is related to the knot in her heart over the years..."
"Brother Sun, don't speak nonsense!"
Sun Guoshu then remembered what Li Yan wanted to know most. Although he felt that everything was unreal, he had slowly accepted what was happening before his eyes.
But he had just said a few words when Mu Lian's face changed again. She didn't know why this young Jindan senior suddenly asked about Xiaozhu Peak.
And Sun Guoshu actually answered every question, which made her feel a little scared, but if Sun Guoshu just said something that many people knew, she might pretend not to hear it.
For ordinary matters, as long as you are someone who cares about the Wuliang Sect, you can still find out the information.
However, Sun Guoshu actually spoke without restraint about Master Wei's Taoist partner and mentioned some psychological knot.
If this matter were to get to the ears of Grandmaster Wei, both himself and Sun Guoshu would be in danger of losing their lives.
This guy had the guts to talk nonsense about the family affairs of a Nascent Soul cultivator. He was too bold.
Although Mu Lian was afraid of offending the mysterious monk in front of her, she was more afraid of the rage of a Nascent Soul monk.
There was no doubt as to which one was more important, a Yuanying-stage cultivator or a Jindan-stage cultivator. In her anxiety, Mu Lian no longer cared about her fear. She gritted her teeth and immediately reminded Sun Guoshu.
By doing this, she was prepared to be punished or even killed by the Jindan cultivator in front of her.
Sun Guoshu was slightly startled, and then he remembered that the junior sister in front of him, whose name he didn't know, probably didn't know Li Yan.
"Oh, what happened to Mrs. Wei?"
At this moment, the space beside them suddenly rippled slightly, and a figure flashed out from the void.
It was Zhao Min. Her figure appeared directly beside Li Yan. At this moment, she was looking at Sun Guoshu, holding two storage bags in her hands.
"Haha, Senior Sister, you let them go!"
When Li Yan saw Zhao Min coming back, he used his spiritual sense to scan in one direction, where two sword cultivators from the Ten-Step Academy were fleeing into the distance with fear on their faces, as panic-stricken as dogs that had lost their homes.
"Just teach them a lesson. This is their storage bag. You two can divide it up. The 'Shadow Void Stone' is also in it!"
Zhao Min nodded to Li Yan. With her current level of cultivation, she really didn't want to kill any foundation-building cultivator at will.
Especially since she had just returned to the Desolate Moon Continent, she felt that every cultivator here was somewhat friendly. This feeling could only be understood by those who had traveled far away.
