Covering the Sky: Fairy, I really need to control you properly.

The mountains are majestic and the peaks are vast and desolate.

Tai Xuan Sect is a renowned holy land in the southern region of the Eastern Wilderness. Although it is not as powerful as ancient families like Yao Guang and Ji Family, it still produces many strong individuals. Each of the sect's 108 peaks has its own strengths, and no one in this vast region can suppress it.

On this day, two people stood at the foot of Zhuofeng Peak.

A boy who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, with delicate features, red lips and white teeth.

Beside him was a young girl with bright, clever eyes that darted around, revealing a mischievous and quirky nature. She was none other than Ji Ziyue, the little moon of the Ji family.

At this moment, the two were examining the mountain peak in front of them.

Calling it a peak is really giving it too much credit.

This mountain is neither majestic nor particularly beautiful; it just stands there plainly, like an old man nearing the end of his life.

What one sees is a collapsed palace, ruins and desolation.

"This is Zhuofeng?" Ji Ziyue blinked. "It's not quite what I expected."

Ye Fan didn't speak. He had come to Zhuofeng for peace and quiet and didn't want outsiders to discover the secret of the Ancient Sacred Body.

Not long after, an old man came down from the mountain.

"Child, do not linger here. The tradition of this mountain has long been severed. Do not ruin your bright future because of a momentary obsession."

Ye Fan bowed respectfully, saying, "I have heard that this place has a secret immortal technique, and I am determined to obtain it. I hope that you will grant my request, senior."

The old man looked at him for a long time, then sighed, "Since you have such lofty aspirations, then I wish you success. If you choose one of the other 107 peaks now, there is still a way back. Do not regret it later."

This seemingly ordinary old man is none other than Li Ruoyu, the current peak master of Zhuofeng.

Afterwards, Ye Fan chose to stay, while Ji Ziyue was forcibly recruited by other peaks.

Ye Fan settled down at Zhuofeng. To say he settled down was a bit of a stretch; he just found a house that hadn't completely collapsed, swept away the dust, laid out some dry straw, and made do with it.

He spent his days studying that yellowed, old book, and his days were quite peaceful.

On the third day, a figure came from the mountain path and joined Zhuofeng.

He was a young man dressed in the robes of a disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect. He was not tall, his skin was excessively fair, and his features were exquisite.

Ye Fan looked up and froze.

Didn't they say that Zhuofeng hasn't taken on any disciples for many years?

Why is there another one after me?

The person who arrived was, of course, Yao Xi.

To be precise, it was Yao Xi, a woman disguised as a man.

At this moment, Yao Xi was replaying the conversation she had with him before setting off.

"Dead tree, I'm not your tool!"

"Fairy, if you help me with this, I promise I will never control you again and will be freed from your sea of ​​suffering."

"……real?"

"Really, as long as you can get one fruit from that kid named Ye Fan, I will keep my word."

"You just need to find the person: the young man from the Tai Xuan Sect's Zhuo Feng!"

Yao Xi sized up the young man in front of her. He was at the Other Shore Realm. After thinking for a moment, she decided that the process of directly suppressing, knocking out, searching, and leaving didn't seem too complicated.

She secretly sent a telepathic message to Xu Jinhuan: "Can we just knock this kid named Ye Fan unconscious and take him away?"

"You'd better not," he quickly replied. "This kid has a huge karmic burden on him, and he has a green copper ingot."

"A green copper block?" Yao Xi frowned. "What's that?"

"Never mind what that thing is, it's just very troublesome. Fairy, watch me do it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Xi felt a familiar will surge through the Tree of Heavenly Dao, taking over her body without warning.

Her consciousness was squeezed into a corner...

"Dead tree! This is the solution you suggested?!" Yao Xi roared in her mind. "Didn't you say that once you found the person, this wouldn't happen again?!"

"Fairy, I'll definitely do it next time."

"you……"

At that moment, several disciples from Xingfeng happened to pass by Zhuofeng and, seeing Ye Fan, the newcomer, they began to plot against him.

The leader crossed his arms, sized up Ye Fan, and sneered, "So you're that idiot who joined Zhuofeng? This wretched place has even lost its lineage, what are you after? These few dilapidated houses?"

Ye Fan frowned, about to speak.

Yao Xi, or rather Xu Jinhuan, was moved.

"what!"

Before Xingfeng's disciples could react, they were slapped to the ground and piled up like a human pyramid, unable to move.

Xu Jinhuan, wearing Yao Xi's face, said, "You guys are in charge of repairing the mountain paths and palaces on Zhuofeng. You can return to Xingfeng whenever the repairs are complete."

Ye Fan was dumbfounded.

This junior brother... is incredibly strong.

Moreover, was he standing up for himself?

As he was thinking, Xu Jinhuan walked towards him.

Then, to Ye Fan's astonishment, the man wiped his face, revealing a face so exquisite it seemed otherworldly.

With snow-white skin and ink-black hair, her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, exuding an indescribable charm amidst her cool demeanor, like a fairy who stepped out of a painting.

Ye Fan's mind went blank.

She's not a junior brother, she's a junior sister.

Xu Jinhuan smiled at him, a smile as gentle as the spring breeze in March, so sweet it was almost cloying.

"Senior brother~, Peak Master Li has sent me to see you."

"When they encountered a few troublesome disciples, they easily dealt with them."

Yao Xi's divine sense immediately protested: "Dead tree, shut up! I can't make that kind of sound!!!"

Ye Fan froze completely.

That "Senior Brother" was so sweet and soft, with a playful upward lilt at the end, that Ye Fan felt half of his bones melt.

No, this art style is off.

He was a handsome young man just a moment ago, how did he turn into such a delicate fairy in the blink of an eye?

Ye Fan blinked, a million questions racing through his mind.

Ye Fan asked, "Thank you for helping me out, Junior Sister. Did you join Zhuofeng also for that immortal technique?"

"Ugh!"

Xu Jinhuan sighed, her voice low and resentful, as if she were hiding endless worries.

"I'm not long for this world." He lowered his eyes, feigning a pitiful state: "I'm suffering from a Daoist injury, and there's no cure. That's why I came here to try my luck and find a glimmer of hope."

Ye Fan asked, "Are Dao injuries difficult to heal? Junior Sister, perhaps Peak Master Li has a solution!"

Xu Jinhuan shook his head: "The injury has penetrated to the bone; there's no use in treating it!"

He paused, his gaze drifting into the distance, his tone becoming distant.

"It seems that only the miraculous medicines nurtured in those legendary forbidden zones can save this young lady's life."

Ye Fan's heart stirred slightly upon hearing the word "forbidden zone".

The desolate and forbidden land, isn't that it?

"Senior brother, never mind, it's fate that we're connected." He took out a jade slip from his robes and handed it over.

"This scripture is for you."

"this……"

Ye Fan was inwardly lamenting the tragic fate of beautiful women when he hesitated but still accepted the jade slip. He probed it with his divine sense and a scripture immediately appeared in his mind, every word a gem, flowing with Daoist rhyme.

Primordial Holy Light Technique, Dao Palace Scroll.

He was worried about not having a suitable cultivation method to break through to the Dao Palace. Although this scripture could not compare to the profoundness of the nine golden ancient characters in the Dao Scripture, it was still a first-class and precious method.

This junior sister is beautiful and kind-hearted.

To extricate himself from this predicament, he even offered up this scripture.

"Junior sister, actually I..."

Before Ye Fan could finish speaking, Xu Jinhuan suddenly swayed.

"In the end... it's an old injury that has flared up again." He murmured, his body going limp as he pretended to fall to the ground.

Ye Fan quickly stepped forward to help her.

He no longer cared about being vigilant and hurriedly took out a jade bottle from the Sea of ​​Bitterness. The bottle contained the divine spring water from the ancient forbidden land, which was crystal clear and full of spiritual energy.

"Junior sister, here, these might come in handy!"

Just as Ye Fan was about to check her injuries, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Before he could think it through, a strange force surged into the hand he was holding.

"you……"

White powder drifted across his face, his cultivation level plummeted from the Other Shore Realm, and his divine power was instantly sealed off, leaving him even weaker than a mortal.

It is the Immortal Sealing Powder from the Yao Guang Holy Land. If the dosage is sufficient, even the divine power of a great being can be sealed until it is completely depleted!

"Brother Ye, I'm sorry, I'll just take one of your fruits."

"You...I...&#*#￥%&..."

Ye Fan finally understood.

What kind of injury has recurred? What kind of life is nearing its end? What kind of destiny is with you...?

It's all an act; this is a scam targeting them!

Xu Jinhuan silently thought to himself, "If Emperor Ye Tian on the sacrificial altar were to watch this history, I'm sorry, you could even tolerate the Golden Crow Emperor cursing him, so you probably wouldn't care about this little thing. At worst, Yao Xi will take the blame."

Ye Fan tried to struggle a bit more, wanting to cry out, "Help..."

With a thought, Xu Jinhuan transferred the Immortal-Slaying Gourd from its original form to Yao Xi.

The black gourd appeared and gently tapped the back of Ye Fan's head.

"Thump!"

Ye Fan's vision went black, and his consciousness sank into darkness.

The reason for using the Immortal-Sealing Powder and the Immortal-Slaying Gourd was to prevent any reaction from the green copper block. It's always safer to use an imperial weapon against an imperial object.

Achievement: Knock out Ye Tiandi in his childhood.
