Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

They quickly dodged to the side, leaving a wide passage for Yan Yun.

In this way, this group of people were exposed to everyone, especially the couple in the Jindan stage and their outstanding disciple.

The handsome, quiet and elegant man immediately grabbed his precious daughter and tried to make way for her to escape from the current predicament.

However, what shocked him was that the female cultivator in the Jindan stage who had been with him for more than a hundred years took two steps forward and bowed deeply to Yan Yunqing without his consent, her tone full of sincerity and gratitude.

"I am here to pay my respects to Senior Yan. Congratulations on your breakthrough in cultivation and your successful advancement to the Nascent Soul stage. If it weren't for your generous assistance, I'm afraid I would be in a life-and-death crisis right now."

"You...you actually know this senior!" The elegant man was so surprised that he was almost speechless.

"I haven't seen you for many years. You have successfully formed a pill. It seems that you have not slacked off in your cultivation. Otherwise, with your aptitude back then, it would be hard to predict whether you could successfully form a pill."

Yan Yun glanced at her, his eyes flickering and his tone as calm as water.

"This is all thanks to the precious elixir that the senior gave me back then. Otherwise, how could Siyue have achieved what she has today!" Wen Siyue responded humbly with her head down.

"I do have some friendship with your father, and what happened back then was just a piece of cake. You don't need to take it too seriously. Judging from your expression, you seem eager to go to the open sea, so let's go together. You and I have a strong connection, so it shouldn't be a problem to take these people with you." Yan Yun finally turned to the veiled woman and asked.

"Since he is an old friend of Fellow Daoist Yan, it won't be a problem!"

The veiled woman smiled and responded calmly.

"Then Yan would like to thank you in advance!"

Yan Yun nodded in response with a normal expression, and then he no longer paid attention to Wen Siyue. Instead, he jumped lightly, and in a flash he was standing in the teleportation array. The method he used was the unique secret technique of the late Nascent Soul cultivator - "Shrinking the Earth".

Wen Siyue and the others were frightened and looked at Yan Yun with awe. Only the thin girl opened her eyes wide and looked at Yan Yun's back curiously.

"By the way, I have not yet asked your name. Madam, could you tell me?"

Yan Yun cast a spell to activate the edge of the magic circle, took out the Great Teleport Order, and then when a white light flashed, he smiled and asked the veiled woman to everyone's surprise.

"My name is Wen Qing." The veiled woman was a little surprised but still answered with a smile.

However, at this moment, Yan Yun in the white light suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared, and even the real name of the veiled woman could not be heard.

The smile in the veiled woman's eyes disappeared instantly.

"Please send them to the teleportation array. Afterwards, please go to the Law Enforcement Hall and receive twenty lightning whips as a warning. If a similar incident happens again next time, the punishment will be greatly increased."

The veiled woman ordered in a cold tone.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, Palace Master! I will strictly abide by the rules in the future and never break them again!"

The sinister man and the old man, who had been living in fear, were both happy and frightened when they heard the punishment result.

The good news was that the punishment they received was far less than they had expected, but the fear was that even if it was only twenty strokes of thunder whip, they would probably need to recuperate in the cave for several months before they could recover.

The veiled woman didn't even look at Wen Siyue and the others. Her whole body was glowing with light and she disappeared from the spot in an instant.

When the woman with the masked face really left the Starry Sky Palace, the gloomy man took a deep breath, and he and the old man beside him both felt panic and straightened their bodies nervously.

Then, he glanced at Wen Siyue and the others roughly, with anger flashing in his eyes.

If it weren't for these people in front of him, how could he have fallen into such a predicament, and might even be facing the punishment of being whipped by thunder and lightning!
The gloomy man showed a resolute expression on his face. Just as he was about to say something harsh and unpleasant, the old man next to him suddenly bowed and said to Wen Siyue in a very respectful tone:

"You two are so lucky to have such a deep connection with Senior Yan. This is truly a rare opportunity. With the careful guidance of this senior in the future, I believe that advancing to the Nascent Soul stage will not be out of reach."

The old man's previous cold attitude towards Wen Siyue and others has disappeared without a trace.

The gloomy man was surprised at first, but after hearing the old man's words, he suddenly realized what was going on. The words that were about to come out of his mouth were instantly swallowed back into his stomach, and his expression quickly changed to a smile.

He actually forgot that the other party was related to a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. How could they, low-level cultivators who had just formed a golden elixir, offend him?
"It is indeed as Brother Huang said! In the future, we brothers may need the help of the two Taoist friends. Please take back these spirit stones. We are willing to bear the cost of this transmission."

The gloomy man took out the storage bag full of spirit stones he had just collected from his waist. Although he was reluctant to give it away, he still returned it to the other party with both hands, while still maintaining an enthusiastic tone.

The elegant man looked at the storage bag in front of him and hesitated for a moment, while Wen Siyue beside him smiled gently:

"My husband and I are already deeply grateful for your willingness to teleport us to the outer sea. How dare we ask for spirit stones again without hesitation? You two Daoists can accept them without worry. But right now I urgently need to track down Senior Yan's whereabouts, so I beg you two Daoists to arrange for us to pass through the teleportation array as soon as possible."

"Of course, I will replace the spirit stones immediately to facilitate the transmission!" The gloomy man saw that Wen Siyue really had no intention of taking back the bag of spirit stones, smiled awkwardly, and agreed without hesitation.

Then, he flashed in front of the teleportation array, bent down, and began to replace the magic array spirit stone that had been used once.

The old man surnamed Huang stayed with Wen Siyue and his wife, chatting about family matters and trying to find out the background and identity of Yan Yun, the late-stage cultivator.

The elegant man knew nothing about this, and Wen Siyue responded with a smile, obviously not wanting to reveal too much information.

After a moment, all the spirit stones of the teleportation array had been replaced.

Wen Siyue was eager to catch up with Yan Yun, so she no longer bothered to greet the two gloomy men. She immediately attached the teleportation talisman to her body and led everyone into the magic circle.

The same white light flashed, and the figures of the seven people gradually disappeared.

Seeing this scene, the old man and the gloomy man looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled helplessly at the same time.

At the other end of the teleportation array, in a spacious stone chamber, a teleportation array was continuously emitting dazzling white light, and the figures of Wen Siyue and others gradually appeared. After a while, the seven people gradually recovered from the discomfort caused by the teleportation.

Wen Si looked around hurriedly, his heart suddenly tightened. The huge cave was empty, and there was not even a trace of a person.

"Everyone, please wait here for a moment while I go check if Senior Yan is still nearby!"

Wen Siyue spoke anxiously to the elegant man, and then without waiting for his response, she hurried out of the stone gate.

The elegant man wanted to ask something, but after a little hesitation, he did not say anything. He just stared at Wen Siyue's slender back with a slight frown on his face.

Wen Siyue stepped out of the stone door, and the view in front of her suddenly became bright. It turned out that the stone house was located on a vast stone platform. The stone platform itself was located on the top of a steep mountain, surrounded by cliffs, and ordinary people could not climb up at all.

However, what made the woman happy was that Yan Yun was standing in a corner of the stone platform at this moment, chatting happily with a monk with untied hair and dressed in Star Palace clothing.

With his hands behind his back, he talks leisurely and contentedly!

The man in the middle stage of the Jindan realm, who originally had a ferocious face, was like a docile lamb in front of Yan Yun. He just kept nodding and bowing, and answered the questions raised by Yan Yun with fear and trepidation.

Obviously, this person is the Xinggong monk who is in charge of guarding the teleportation array here.

Wen Siyue adjusted her mood and did not immediately step forward to disturb them. Instead, she stood there quietly, watching the conversation between Yan Yun and the cultivator.

After a while, Yan Yun waved his hand gently, as if to end the conversation.

The big man bowed deeply and respectfully, then took a few steps back before walking towards the stone house.

At this time, Wen Siyue walked slowly towards Yan Yun.

"It is all thanks to the senior's righteous words just now. Otherwise, my husband and I would not only be unable to reach the open sea, but might even encounter a disaster." Wen Siyue said respectfully after bowing and expressing her gratitude.

"You're welcome. You're in trouble because of me. Besides, this is just a piece of cake. I wonder if you have something important to tell me that has brought you here in such a hurry?" Yan Yun looked at Wen Siyue calmly and asked indifferently.

"Siyue knows that she is too greedy. Senior has helped her many times, and she should be satisfied. However, my daughter is seriously ill and her life is in danger. I beg you to help me again!"

Wen Siyue spoke sincerely, with tears in her eyes. It seemed that the mother and daughter had a deep affection and she loved her daughter very much.

"That girl who was poisoned, could she be your daughter?"

Yan Yun's eyes flickered and he spoke slowly and calmly, making it difficult to guess his true thoughts.

"That's right! Senior, you have a keen eye and can see through my daughter's illness at a glance." Upon hearing Yan Yun's words pointing out the source of her daughter's illness, Wen Siyue was cheered up and her eyes were filled with anticipation.

"From what I heard, you have already found a solution to the detoxification, so why do you need to ask me for help?" Yan Yun looked puzzled.

"So, Senior already knew about this. Indeed, my husband and I have received guidance from an expert that we can use the inner elixir of the egret fish demon to refine an elixir to cure this poison. However, this elixir cannot completely eradicate the toxin. Even if it can temporarily save lives, physical fitness will be seriously damaged, and there will be no further progress on the road of cultivation. Senior, as a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, must have other tricks. I hope Senior will be merciful!"

Wen Siyue explained anxiously.

"I see!"

Yan Yun did not agree to any request immediately, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

Wen Siyue was extremely frightened at the moment, but she couldn't bear to force Yan Yun to make a decision. She could only stare at Yan Yun with longing, her face full of anticipation.

Yan Yun raised her head and looked up at the sun-like light in the sky, then lowered her head and glanced at the beautiful face of the shy girl in front of her, and suddenly asked a question that was beyond her expectations.

"When did Brother Wen pass away? Did he die by sitting in meditation or by reincarnation?"

Wen Siyue was naturally stunned when she heard this, but soon replied sadly:

"When I returned to the Inner Sea, my father's whereabouts were unknown. I have searched for him for decades, but still can't find any clues. If my father hadn't been able to successfully condense the golden elixir, he would probably have passed away long ago."

"The path of cultivation is full of ups and downs and challenges. No one knows what realm one will eventually reach. If other strangers asked me for help, I would probably ignore them. However, since you have met me many times, it seems that there is indeed some kind of fate between us. Moreover, you are the descendant of an old friend, and there is still plenty of time. I will go check on the girl first."

Yan Yun finally nodded slightly.

"Thank you so much, senior!" Wen Siyue was naturally overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately wanted to kneel down and express her gratitude to Yan Yun.

"This is not a place for treatment. I'm waiting for you at the inn in the small town at the foot of the mountain. You can go there together later."

Yan Yun waved his sleeves, releasing an invisible force, and easily lifted Wen Siyue up, making it impossible for the latter to complete the ceremony. Then, his whole body was shrouded in green light, and he turned into a lightning-fast green streamer hovering under the stone platform.

Wen Siyue was shocked, but quickly came to her senses and ran towards the stone chamber happily.

After a moment, seven practitioners including her transformed into several dazzling beams of light and followed closely in the direction where Yan Yun disappeared.

"Has the young man surnamed Yan already broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage?"

In the vast area of ​​the Inner Star Sea, inside a deep cave on the Holy Mountain of Tianxing City, an incredible male voice broke the silence, causing the entire cave to tremble.

The one who uttered this sentence was none other than the male member of the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars!
"It is true. I was shocked, but after repeated confirmation, I found it to be true."

Melodious female voices followed one after another, and the mysterious woman named Wen Qing had already unveiled her veil, revealing a beautiful face that was slightly pale, sitting on a crystal clear jade platform in the center of the cave.

"Based on this trend, I'm afraid his talent for cultivation is higher than ours." The man's tone became low, as if he was gradually regaining his composure after hearing the news he had just received.

"That is very likely the case. As far as I know, this person was less than 200 years old before he disappeared. Such an astonishingly fast achievement is rarely seen among the emperors of the Star Palace. It took us about 500 years to barely advance to the late Nascent Soul stage." (End of this chapter)
