Bai Yunfei lifted the old woman up and channeled his soul power slightly to make her feel better. Then he looked up at the four people opposite who were struggling to get up from the ground. His eyes flashed with cold light and he said coldly: "Get out!!"
The four people were confused by the sudden attack. One of them, who was slightly injured, glared at Bai Yunfei and shouted out of habit: "Who are you?! We are the Flying Eagle Gang..."
The words stopped abruptly before he could speak. A powerful pressure came over him, and the fear from his soul instantly filled his heart, making him swallow the rest of the words alive.
Bai Yunfei's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said in a cold voice: "If you don't get out, I will kill you!!"
The four big men shuddered almost at the same time, and even the man whose calf was pierced subconsciously stopped howling miserably. The four looked at each other, not daring to say anything more, and helped each other in embarrassment and escaped from the alley. .
The young man named Xiaohu had also been pulled up by Jing Mingfeng, who also input soul power to help him recover from his injuries. He was now much better.
For a soul master, other people's soul power can be temporarily accepted and used to restore one's own injuries, but it cannot be retained for a long time. Moreover, if the soul power attributes conflict with each other, it will have the opposite effect. However, for ordinary people, it will only Passively accepting, the soul master inputs soul power to stimulate some acupoints in the body, enhance the recovery speed of the body, and also achieve the healing effect.
After Xiaohu got up, he immediately walked to the old woman and observed anxiously. When he found that she was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at Bai Yunfei, showed gratitude, and said: " Thanks!"
Bai Yunfei smiled, shook his head and said, "No need to thank you. In fact, we brought you this trouble..." After saying that, he glanced slightly behind him.
After thinking for a while, Bai Yunfei said to him: "You may be in danger if you stay here. Those people may come to you again at any time. I can help you again. Are you willing to come with me?"
Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, looked at the old woman, then at Bai Yunfei, then lowered his head in silence for a while, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, raised his head and said: "Okay!"
Bai Yunfei smiled and nodded, shouting behind him: "Tianming, come here!"
"Ah? Oh, it's coming!" Tianming ran to Bai Yunfei and asked doubtfully, "Brother Bai, what's wrong?"
"You carry this old lady, and we go back to find Boss Huang."
"Ah? This..." Tianming was stunned for a moment, looking at the old woman whose clothes were in tatters, covered with dust, and even smelled like a sour smell, with a trace of hesitation on her face.
"What? Not willing? Do you think the old man is dirty? Then forget it, I'll do it." Bai Yunfei frowned slightly and said calmly, then squatted down and was about to carry the old man on his back.
Tianming was stunned for a moment and then immediately realized what he was doing. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "No, it's not...Brother Bai, I know I'm wrong. I'll do it, I'll do it."
Bai Yunfei stood up, with a smile on his face again, watching Tianming carefully carry the old man on his back, then nodded to Xiaohu and Jing Mingfeng, and said, "Let's go."
Tang Xinyun looked at Bai Yunfei coming back with a complicated expression. She looked at the old woman on Tianming's back and Xiaohu who was supported by Jing Mingfeng. She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. There was even a trace of moisture in her eyes, showing guilt. color.
Looking at her look, Bai Yunfei shook his head slightly and said softly: "You... are not wrong."
Then he looked at Aunt Zhao next to Tang Xinyun who also looked guilty, and said lightly: "You did something wrong..."
After saying that, he said nothing more and turned around and walked towards the street.
…
When he arrived at the Longxing Restaurant, Bai Yunfei found that Huang Wan and others were already waiting there, and more than a dozen tables of food had been prepared. Many people were sitting around the table talking and laughing, half of whom he had never seen before, and it should be Huang Wan and others. A partner in all business matters.
When Huang Wanwan saw Bai Yunfei and others coming in, he immediately stood up to greet him. A very rich and fat middle-aged man next to him also followed over with a smile on his face, but he also looked very respectful and even a little nervous. It seemed that It was from Huang Wan's mouth that he learned the identities of Bai Yunfei and others.
After a few polite words with Huang Wan and others, Bai Yunfei asked Huang Wan to take in Xiaohu and his grandmother, hoping that he would allow the young man to work in his shop and have a living condition.
Bai Yunfei also made it clear that he and Xiaohu didn't know each other, and they didn't need any special care. They could just treat him like ordinary workers. Huang Wan naturally agreed without hesitation. For him, this was just a small matter. Although he knew that he and Bai Yunfei had only met by chance, and that they might never have the chance to see each other again this time, but having a slight relationship with a powerful soul master, even if it was an unfounded friendship, was a great deal for him. An honor and 'capital'...
At night, lying in the luxurious bed of the inn, Bai Yunfei did not practice, but put his hands on the back of his head, thinking about some things with emotion.
Thinking of the awed and fawning looks that Huang Wan and another wealthy man had on him tonight, thinking of how easily he saved the young man and the old woman from the gangsters, thinking of how his casual words had changed their lives. 'Destiny', for some reason, Bai Yunfei suddenly felt an inexplicable 'melancholy' in his heart.
He is now a powerful soul master, no longer the ordinary boy who allowed others to bully him but could only swallow his anger...
"One day, my little Yunfei will be like the white clouds in the sky, flying freely under the clear sky."
His mother's gentle and loving words seemed to ring in his ears again. Bai Yunfei raised his right hand in front of his eyes, shook it, and murmured: "Mother, I now have power beyond ordinary people. I can do many things that I couldn't do before. Even things that I dare not think about, I have been living very relaxed and happy these days... Is this considered 'freedom'?"
"But..." Bai Yunfei thought about being chased by the Ice Sect and being chased by the Soul Sect in Yanlin City. In the end, he relied on the help of others to escape in embarrassment.
"Perhaps this is only temporary... The continent is infinitely vast. I have only traveled a very small distance. There is still a long way to go in life. Although I will not provoke others, there is no guarantee. Don’t bother me, there are many people in the world who are stronger than me. If you want to remain ‘free’ in the days to come, you have to continue to become stronger!”
"And... I'm not forced now, mother. I think it's a very happy thing to make myself stronger. It's not a burden, but my motivation and pursuit to continue taking risks, soul masters, soul skills, soul weapons , soul beasts, sects, and equipment enhancement techniques... I found that there are many, many things waiting for me to explore and discover. I am very satisfied with this kind of life... Mother, you can rest assured that Yunfei will continue to walk freely and happily like this. You will never be disappointed…”
As he thought about it, Bai Yunfei began to miss the vague memories of his mother and every moment he spent with his grandfather. His thoughts were racing, and in the end, he was even more unable to sleep and practice peacefully.
Sighing, Bai Yunfei simply got up and got out of bed, opened the window and jumped out of the house, ready to take a stroll.
"Eh?" As soon as he walked onto the street, Bai Yunfei let out a soft sigh and turned to look at the roof of the inn. There seemed to be someone...
…
On the roof, a white figure sat there quietly, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, her eyes wandering, as if she was thinking about something absentmindedly. Xiaobai jumped up and down next to him, occasionally chirping twice, as if to comfort him.
There was a slight sound of footsteps, and Tang Xinyun was slightly startled, but she immediately regained her composure, nodded lightly at the visitor, and then looked at the night sky again, her mood seemed a little low.
"Why, is Miss Tang still thinking about what happened in the evening?" Bai Yunfei casually sat one meter away from Tang Xinyun and asked softly.
"Yes." Tang Xinyun nodded lightly, then looked at Bai Yunfei, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I... Mr. Bai, thank you, and... I'm sorry..."
"Haha, what do you want to thank me for, let alone apologize." Bai Yunfei smiled and shook his head, "Besides, you are not wrong, Miss Tang, don't take it too seriously..."
"Why am I not wrong? Because of my relationship, they were entangled by those bad guys. If I didn't give him so many gold coins, this thing wouldn't have happened..." Tang Xinyun lowered her head and said guiltily, "But... I really wanted to help them, but I didn’t expect it would be like this..."
"Now that I think about it, every time I did something like this in the past, Aunt Zhao would always find an excuse to leave alone for a while. It turns out... she always went to help me with the aftermath..." Tang Xinyun shook her head mockingly. , "Fortunately, I naively thought that I helped them and could make their lives better, and I was self-righteous and complacent in my heart... "
"She just wants to protect your innocence and kindness..." Bai Yunfei thought for a while and comforted.
Tang Xinyun forced a smile: "I know, I know that everything Aunt Zhao did was for me. It was like this at home, and it is like this now when I come out... I thought I understood a lot at home before, but now I just I discovered that I actually didn’t know anything about the outside world.”
"Don't you understand one more thing now? The more you experience, the more you understand. This is the meaning of traveling, isn't it? If you think about these mistakes in the future, they will be precious memories. .”
Seeing that Tang Xinyun was still a little depressed, Bai Yunfei didn't know how to comfort him, so he simply changed the subject and said, "By the way, Miss Tang, I haven't asked you yet, why are you traveling this time?"
Bai Yunfei originally wanted to change the topic to distract the other party, but as soon as the question came out of his mouth, Tang Xinyun seemed to become even more frustrated.
"I... I want to have stronger strength, strong enough not to be ignored by the family, strong enough to protect my mother from suffering..." Tang Xinyun hesitated for a while and whispered.
Bai Yunfei was silent for a while, then sighed: "Miss Tang, you shouldn't be so depressed. For your mother, no matter how heavy the burden is, you should face it with a smile and let your mother know your happiness. I believe that your happiness is the most important thing." It’s your mother’s greatest wish…”
"I also want to protect my mother. No matter how tired I am, no matter how much suffering I suffer, I am willing to do so - but, there is no chance anymore..."
The person who persuaded others suddenly became even more depressed than the person being persuaded. Tang Xinyun couldn't help but be stunned. For a moment, there was a brief silence on the roof.
