Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 448 Reunion and Forgetfulness
The frost and fog that lingered on the sacred mountain all year round was exceptionally thin on this day, and the sky took on a rare pale blue color.

You Su walked up the jade steps, ice crystals shattered into tiny pieces on the soles of his boots, and faint ripples of dragon patterns appeared with every step.

"These restrictions were carved by our master himself." Long Chiyu's light-colored skirt swept across the snow on the steps, and the ice jade bell on her waist jingled. "Our master's attainments in formations are extremely high, but I haven't learned even a little bit."

The skeletons of women in Beiaozhou are generally broader than those of women in warm lands, including the contemporary dragon girl of Jianlong Palace. Like her master, she has a beautiful and heroic set of broad shoulders and narrow back.

Such a figure is very imposing, which complements the image of her and her master as proud and purposeful female heroes. This is also the impression she left on You Su.

But You Su felt that the tone of her voice at this moment was like that of a different person compared to when she was on Tianxing Fairy Island. She didn't sound like a strong woman who had grown up in hardships, but more like a delicate girl from the southern water village who would say "I am not talented enough".

It seems that the disaster on Tianxing Fairy Island had too much of an impact on her... You Su thought.

However, having her lead the way still gave You Su a sense of security, at least she was someone he knew.

"Dragon Girl, there is no need to be modest. Although having many skills is good, one must also specialize. The Dragon Girl's ability to become a Dragon Girl is naturally not due to the formation."

"Mr. You is overpraising me. Chi Yu was just lucky."

Long Chiyu suddenly turned around, her ears blushing, and the tassels of the pearl hairpin in her hair swayed violently when she turned around. It seemed that because of You Su's approval, she finally couldn't help but say what she had been holding back in her heart:
"Mr. You, don't worry about carrying this injustice any longer. You have done a great job in saving Bei Ao. Master came back and told me that he would clear your name after the matter was done, and asked me to come forward as a witness."

You Su chuckled, startling the ice bird perched on the eaves. "My Lord told me that the Dragon Girl not only did not take advantage of my misfortune, but also spoke for me despite the disapproval of the world. You Su is very grateful."

"It's all natural. Why do you need to thank me, sir? The ones who should thank us are the ones who were saved by you."

Long Chiyu frowned, and her serious look seemed to have turned back into the person You Su remembered her to be. However, You Su could not see his handsome features reflected in the woman's eyes.

The Lord took control of Beiao again, and the cold and lonely Kongyuan Divine Mountain became unusually lively.

You Su heard sporadic discussions floating in the wind.

"I heard that the cave of Venerable Ningshuang was sealed by three layers of black ice..."

"Who cares? It's just a pity that I have to pay another 30% for the snow ganoderma in my herb garden..."

Behind the red painted pillars, two monks holding halberds were huddled around the alchemy furnace to keep warm. The older one threw a fire spirit stone into the furnace, and the sparks lit up the scar between his eyebrows:
"If you ask me, sooner or later the Lord will kill those termites..."

The words stopped abruptly.

Long Chiyu lightly rolled up her snow-white sleeves, and the two monks hurriedly saluted, but they showed surprise and doubt when they caught a glimpse of You Su - of course they knew the Lady Dragon in the Dragon Palace, but they didn't know who the man was who could be led by the Lady Dragon in person.

However, You Su kept his face covered with a felt hat, which made him look even more mysterious. As a mere guard of the Dragon Palace, they dared not speculate.

You Su heard a lot of such discussions and couldn't help but raise his sword-like eyebrows. He thought to himself that some people in Shenshan were happy and some were sad about the victory of Venerable Qianlong, but most of them were probably only concerned about their own interests.

After passing the last solemn porch, You Su had already seen the fairy in white dress standing upright in front of the door.

She was still wearing the familiar Jade Rabbit mask, her blue eyes were still clear, and she was still standing in front of the door, waiting for her junior brother's return, just like when she was at Lotus Peak.

You Su's breathing seemed to stop for a moment, and then he smiled faintly.

The scene of reuniting with his senior sister was exactly the same as he had imagined, plain as water, but with deep and long-lasting affection.

Long Chiyu stood behind You Su silently without disturbing him. She felt that although she was standing next to him, she seemed to be isolated from their world.

"Brother Yousu!"

A pink figure flashed out from behind the door, easily disrupting the quiet reunion of the sister and brother.

"I miss you so much!"

Bai Ze's toes touched the moonstones on the ground, and two candied fruits rolled down her flowered skirt. She opened her arms and pretended to pounce, like a swallow flying into the forest when she returned to the evil cave under the sea, but she suddenly stopped before she touched You Su's clothes.

You Su was also stunned for a moment. After looking carefully, she realized that her senior sister was faster than her and grabbed her collar before her.

Sister, this is...

"What are you doing! Let me go! I want to find my brother!" Bai Ze was like a helpless kitten being picked up, waving his hands around in helplessness and rage.

"Me, first." Wangshu spoke firmly, with no intention of letting go.

You Su secretly found it funny, but he also felt sweet because of his senior sister's possessiveness.

He took the initiative to step forward and held the Snow Fairy's white jade hand skillfully. It was no longer as cold as before.

But his other hand was not idle either, and pressed on the top of the girl's head, who was angry after being put down. The girl immediately calmed down and happily hugged You Su's waist.

Long Chiyu stood aside, feeling rather redundant, and secretly thinking that people should have three hands.

"It's cold outside, why don't you come in and chat." Although it was a rare sunny day in Beiao today, she really felt that the wind in Beiao was particularly cold.

You Su also just remembered that there were outsiders here, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and he didn't feel shy. He stretched out his hand and said frankly:

"Dragon girl, please."

After the group entered the house and sat down, Fairy Wangshu was quiet, just sitting beside You Su and looking at him silently. She didn't seem to have too many questions to ask, or maybe she didn't care about anything. For her, it was enough for her junior brother to be by his side.

Bai Ze kept whining and asking what happened to You Su when that woman took him away, whether she had harmed him, etc. Although You Su had already recognized that woman, he was not qualified to persuade Bai Ze to forgive him, so he just made a simple summary. The so-called knot in her heart, I'm afraid, still needs to be resolved by that woman herself.

Bai Ze talked about her own experience, saying that she was amazing, not only did she escape from the bad guys, but she also united a lot of good people. Many people were afraid of her, but they didn't know why she knew so many secrets, until she said that she was the divine beast Bai Ze. In the legend of Beiao, Bai Ze was such a divine beast that was born with knowledge and spoke human language. This made it reasonable for this young girl to shock many powerful people, and it also explained why she was so young, but she already had the strength of the Feathered Realm that could rank among the best in the Divine Mountain.

Now, the name of Bai Ze has become well-known in the sacred mountain. Because the people of Bei'ao worship Bai Ze, they also respect this girl who was transformed from a sacred beast even more.

After hearing this, You Su simply agreed with a few words about how amazing Bai Ze was, but he knew in his heart that the one who stirred up the situation in the sacred mountain was the Palace Master of Jianlong Palace, and Bai Ze, this silly and cute little cat, was just sitting back and reaping the benefits.

Long Chiyu was secretly surprised. Although the little girl was small, she had an invisible sense of oppression, and it was as if it was a common thing for him to order her around.

Even other Dongxu masters didn't dare to order her around, which was just like her master. The most important thing was that she really saw the shadow of her master in the girl's appearance.

So although she was secretly angry, she didn't dare to do anything to the girl, for fear that she was really related to her master. She didn't want to pay attention to the girl's order, but was shocked by the girl's words "Do you want to save your master and You Su?" The Shenshan Mountain Protection Formation that was suddenly activated that night was opened privately by her at Bai Ze's instruction, taking a great risk.

"After Lord Bai Ze met Master You... he seemed like a different person." After all, she was a straightforward person and could not help but speak.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a chill in her soul. Her pupils shrank suddenly, and she saw the girl who was pulling You Su's sleeve and acting coquettishly gave her a flash of cold eyes that was enough to make her nervous - as if it made her flash back to the time when she had done something wrong and knelt trembling under the master's seat.

"Brother is different from you guys!" the girl replied with a hum.

Long Chiyu looked at her again in disbelief, but the girl turned into her lovely and pleasing appearance again, blinking her big watery eyes. Although the boy was struggling to cope, he could also feel his doting on the girl.

She couldn't be the master... After all, how could a master behave like this...

"I am familiar with Bai Ze and I recognize her as my sister. When she sees me, she won't be so defensive." You Su also explained for the girl with a smile.

You Su thought that this silly little cat did not reveal any trace of meeting the Dragon Palace Master when she talked about her experience, so she must have received instructions from that woman. And only when she saw him did she reveal her little girl's playful nature.

But he didn't know that while Venerable Qianlong and the Palace Master of Jianlong Palace were truly one soul, Bai Ze and the Palace Master of Jianlong Palace were originally the same soul. This was just an excuse that this female cultivator on the mountaintop found to gain favor. After all, if You Suruo knew that she had always been the honorable Palace Master, it would be difficult for her to call him brother in a soft voice.

She didn't want to become like that, but this unworthy man tried to expose her mask, so of course she had to punish him a little.

Wait, Chi Yu looked at his brother with a strange look in his eyes and said...

"I see..." Long Chiyu was still in shock and didn't dare to talk about the girl anymore. He said, "When Master blocks the sea well under the Kongyuan Divine Mountain, the source of the evil tide will be cut off. All that's left is to exorcise them, and this farce will end."

You Su pushed Bai Ze back to her seat and nodded, "It's basically the same as I thought. The sea well seems to have limitations, so the evil spirits sent here are not too powerful. Now that we have regained control of the sacred mountain, it will be easier to drive the monks of the sacred mountain to ward off evil spirits. I believe that under the control of your master, Beiao will soon return to normal."

"I hope so. Master's plan to replace the soil has been tampered with beyond recognition, and now it has to be stopped." Long Chiyu has seen the black soil, and it is indeed a magical soil that has the potential to bring spring to Beiao.

"By the way, where is the Lord now?" You Su asked with concern.

"Master just went through a fierce battle and went to deal with various affairs urgently. This cannot be completed in a short time."

You Su stroked the teacup and sighed, "She is really hard-working."

Bai Ze, who was standing aside, looked at You Su's expression and frowned slightly.

"Yes, as a disciple, I feel even more tired than my master. But rest assured, Master You. When she asked me to pick you up, she said that she would come to thank you in person when she was free. You can all rest in peace in Jianlong Palace."

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that something was wrong: "I understand. We can rest here, and there is no need for the Dragon Girl to watch over us all the time. You can go and assist the Lord, so that you can finish the trivial matters as soon as possible and block the sea well as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Bai Ze's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Sir, you are so thoughtful. The guest rooms are in the backyard. Please make your own way. If you need anything, just ask my fellow apprentices. I will not accompany you."

Long Chiyu clasped her fists towards the three people in gratitude, You Su also clasped her fists in return, and then she left on her own.

There were three people left in the hall. Without his close disciples by his side, Bai Ze felt less psychologically burdened to perform, so he became more unscrupulous in seeking favor.

While dealing with it, You Su chatted with her senior sister about the recent situation, and then she found out that it was really the leader of Xuanxiao Sect who moved her and her master's wife away in advance, and she ran away while her master's wife was repairing the spirit platform. However, it was impossible for a good child like her to run away from home without saying a word. After learning that she had left a letter for her master's wife, You Su was slightly relieved.

You Su apologized to Wangshu and felt guilty for getting Lotus Peak into trouble, but Wangshu didn't take it seriously and just held You Su's hand tightly.

You Su was even more touched, Bai Ze kept getting involved, and strangely, Wang Shu didn't seem to be indifferent to her. You Su thought for a moment and knew that Bai Ze must have brought his sister to protect them in Shenshan to contain the forces of all parties, and his sister was very thoughtful and would not have any ill will towards this kind of "good person" who would help his brother.

Things seemed to be settled, and the three of them were content in this space that belonged to them alone. You Su praised his senior sister for her wisdom in seeing through the plan of Venerable Qianlong to kill someone with a borrowed knife. Wangshu was obviously very impressed and almost wanted to start a game with You Su in front of the children. Fortunately, You Su was not an impatient person.

Bai Ze was very curious about whether to call Fairy Wangshu "elder sister-in-law" or "younger sister-in-law", but her curiosity did not earn You Su's patient answer, but instead three rude slaps on the head.

You Su gave her a serious lesson, telling her that no matter how many sisters-in-law she had in the future, she should always address them as "sister-in-law" with the title "sister-in-law", regardless of age. If she asked such questions that were not conducive to internal unity again, he would no longer want her as his sister.

Bai Ze immediately fell silent and shut up.

Before they knew it, it was already dark. Although food was delivered twice, there was still no sign of Venerable Qianlong or even Long Chiyu.

The disciples who delivered the food expressed their great gratitude to You Su and others. As disciples of Jianlong Palace, they naturally supported their master.

But their excitement never seemed to infect You Su, and You Su's reaction was very indifferent.

Leaning against the ancient pillar and looking at the moonlight obscured by mist, You Su felt a gloom in his heart for some reason.

No matter how busy the affairs are, blocking the sea well should be the most important thing, right? That woman is not someone who doesn't know the difference between the important and the unimportant...

And most importantly, You Su always felt that he had forgotten something.

what is it then?

You Su suddenly woke up. The remaining eleven venerables had all confessed their crimes, but no one remembered that "sir" until now?
