"Waiting for reincarnation..."

"Chaos begins to clear..."

The moment he heard these words clearly, Xu Qingyan felt a mysterious feeling.

It wasn't like a sudden enlightenment, but... everything around me seemed blurry and distorted.

Although it was under the sun, the boy seemed unable to see the specific things around him.

Whether it's facial expressions or the sounds you hear.

Everything became blurry, as if it had fallen into chaos.

Xu Qingyan even found that he couldn't even turn his eyes away, and his body couldn't move!

He stared in that direction with bated breath.

He saw that among the five people, the figure who was treated like a star was actually walking towards him slowly!

Her steps seemed fast, yet also seemed slow.

Xu Qingyan was unable to see the other person's face clearly from under the hood, but he could sense an inexplicable fragrance approaching.

He lost all power to struggle.

He could only quietly watch the figure in front of him approach him. When he was even in front of him, Xu Qingyan realized that he seemed to have lost the concept of time.

I didn't even realize how long this would take.

It seemed very long, yet it seemed like just a moment.

She just stood in front of him, raising her head slightly.

Xu Qingyan saw the other person's jawline, which was a round and white curve.

It seems like a perfect face.

What is she going to do?

Xu Qingyan was not too flustered, he just waited quietly.

Until the other party said in a cold and clear voice.

"Go back. You can't solve the problems here."

Xu Qingyan's pupils contracted instantly.

He felt something very familiar... as if a scene that had appeared before appeared in front of him again.

But he just couldn't remember what it was!

It's like someone has stolen a piece of memory that should have been there, so I can't recall it at all.

What on earth!

Why are these words and this tone so familiar?

in the end...

And at this moment, he felt that his body had gained the ability to move.

He stretched out his hand eagerly.

However, the figure that was actually there in front of him a second ago suddenly disappeared.

All failed.

Xu Qingyan looked toward the street.

Nothing...

Except for some remaining traces, there was no trace of the cart, the man, the five hooded figures, and the woman who had just clearly walked in front of him...

All disappeared.

"What are you standing there for?"

Pei Yu's voice interrupted the boy's thoughts.

Xu Qingyan took in everything around him, and turned to look at Pei Yu who was looking at him with doubt.

"Did you see anything?"

Pei Yu looked puzzled. "I saw it. I saw the man pushing the cart. He kowtowed to those people in black robes for no apparent reason. Then those people left, but he was still kowtowing there. Then the soldiers came and took the man pushing the cart away."

"that's all?"

"Nonsense, and then you were just standing there in a daze, and everyone else had left but you were still watching. Is it really that good?"

Obviously, from Pei Yu's perspective, none of the scenes that Xu Qingyan saw with his own eyes appeared.

For example, how that only figure came to him, and how he said those inexplicable words to him.

It was as if none of this had ever happened.

So, all that... did not really happen. It was that person... that woman who made him feel strangely familiar, took some special measures.

Only I received this information?

Is that a warning? Or a threat?

Xu Qingyan certainly wouldn't think that she only talked to me, that I was special, or some other stupid idea.

He was just constantly thinking about what this familiar feeling was.

Why did it appear in my mind? Is it related to some experience in my past life?

And why did this woman find me alone?

I clearly just saw all this on the side of the road, I didn't do anything, and I didn't show anything. Even if the aura of a cultivator couldn't be concealed, how could she choose between Pei Yu and me to say this?

Could it be that...she also remembers me like Yun Nishang?

Do they really know each other?

Xu Qingyan shook his head, "Nothing... I'm a little tired. Wait a minute, have a cup of tea."

Xu Qingyan looked at a tea stall not far away and said so.

Pei Yu frowned, "Drinking tea at this time?"

"Otherwise, Master Pei, is there any better place to go?"

Xu Qingyan asked.

Pei Yu did not comment, but Xu Qingyan had already walked in that direction.

The woman was a little unhappy, as if after leaving the Eighteen Sword Sect, the control of all actions was no longer in her hands, and it seemed that this young man was in charge of everything.

I appear to be particularly passive.

She was not happy with the current situation, but she had to admit that the only clues to some things so far were opened by this boy.

As Xu Qingyan arrived at this simple tea stall, there were no special facilities, and even the simple benches had no idea how many people had sat on them. Pei Yu felt unnatural.

Xu Qingyan saw through Pei Yu's thoughts at a glance, and he said with a smile.

"Master Pei still cares about these things?"

Pei Yu said coldly, "Since you are a cultivator, you should distance yourself from the mundane world."

Xu Qingyan thought for a moment, "Aren't we in the mortal world now? There are no natural immortals in this world. Everyone is just an ordinary person."

Pei Yu stopped talking, she knew that no matter what she said, she couldn't win over this boy who always had twisted ideas.

Xu Qingyan took out his handkerchief and pretended to wipe the bench, then said with a smile, "Is this okay now?"

Pei Yu watched this scene, and saw the boy's slightly doting smile towards him.

Suddenly I felt complicated.

What kind of tone and action is this? It's like coaxing a child.

Do I need him to comfort me? He is just putting me on the fire.

Sit down by yourself, and you will be easily coaxed, as if you are really being treated like a child by him.

If you don't sit down, you're just like an even more ignorant child, the kind of person who doesn't know how to be ashamed.

Pei Yu frowned, but still took out a handkerchief from his Qiankun bag and put it on the stool. In fact, there was not much difference. The only thing that was added was a psychological defense line.

Seeing Pei Yu sitting down like this, Xu Qingyan couldn't help laughing.

The shock caused by the previous episode was unconsciously reduced a lot.

Of course, that doesn't mean the doubts have disappeared. Now Xu Qingyan feels more and more that some of his intuitions really make sense.

It seemed as if there was something inexplicable, as if there was a conspiracy, as if there was an undercurrent surrounding him.

It may be that I didn't touch upon it in my previous life, or it may be that I touched upon it but realized later that I didn't have time to discover it at the time...

Just as I was thinking about it, the owner of the tea stall came over to serve tea.

While serving tea, he seemed to be mumbling to himself, "Alas, I don't know what happened to Wang Er, he ran away from the south of the city... I guess he must have nowhere else to go."

Xu Qingyan frowned and looked at the tea stall owner who was about to leave.

"Boss, is this Wang Er you are talking about the one who pushed the cart just now?"

The boss showed a simple smile, "Yes, sir... He and I used to be neighbors. He moved to the south of the city two years ago. Alas... I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. I guess he can't stay in Xinrang City anymore. If things continue like this... The whole city will suffer."

Hearing this, Xu Qingyan pondered for a moment, while Pei Yu, who was standing beside him, seemed unwilling to let the initiative be controlled by this young man, so she also spoke.

"Don't the government and the palace have any measures?"

The boss sighed helplessly, "What can we do? This is a natural disaster... a plague we've never seen before. Not many people dare to take the risk. We can only isolate the south of the city and prevent people from entering or leaving... I don't know how Wang Er got out..."

"Who were those people in black robes just now? They didn't look like government officials."

Pei Yu didn't drink tea. When she was outside, especially in an unfamiliar place, she would not eat or drink anything.

This boy is nothing like him. He just drinks the wine as soon as it is served, not caring that there is a strange plague in this place.

The boss was stunned for a moment, "That... those are people from Fengtian Sect. Have you guests just arrived? Oh... you two... should be immortals, right?"

Suddenly the boss guessed the identities of the two.

Pei Yu was thinking about how he figured it out? Xu Qingyan was thinking about something else.

Before Pei Yu opened his mouth, Xu Qingyan took the initiative to ask.

"Boss, from what you said... have you seen immortals before?"

The boss rubbed his hands nervously on the sweat towel at the waist of his pants, "Haha, it's strange... I didn't see many immortals in the first half of my life, and I didn't even see many dignitaries... But this year, I have seen three or four groups of them one after another. You two should be the fifth group."

Xu Qingyan and Pei Yu looked at each other immediately.

Xu Qingyan took out a silver ingot from his sleeve without leaving any trace. Although immortal cultivators don't need this thing as hard currency, it is still very useful in the human world. At least it is more effective than torture in many cases.

He handed the silver to the boss and asked softly, "Where are those immortals you saw?"

The boss quickly stuffed the silver into his arms, even looked around warily and said softly.

"I don't know about that. To be honest, I just saw those people coming here one after another... I only know that a group of Taoists went to the palace, and as for the others... I haven't seen them passing by here. Maybe it was because I didn't have time to set up the stall? Or maybe they left from somewhere else..."

This sentence made Pei Yu frown even more tightly, and Xu Qingyan asked another question.

"By the way, boss, do you know anything about the Fengtian Sect?"

The boss looked at the street, "Look, there are people knelt and chanted something over there, they are the followers of Fengtian Sect. I don't know when this Fengtian Sect started, but it is said that people who believe in them... will not be infected by the plague. It sounds mysterious. It is said that they have saved a lot of people, but I heard that the government is very strict with them... Anyone who shows up will be arrested."

The boss smiled when he said this, "Sir, don't you think it's funny? Instead of doing serious work, the person who saved the person was arrested. What a shitty world this is."

Hearing this, Pei Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Do you also believe in Fengtianism?"

The boss blinked and said, "As long as it is useful, I can trust it."

The woman frowned, "This belief is too casual."

The boss said with a smile, "Isn't that how people are? In the end, what is faith and what is loyalty? It still depends on the interests that satisfy you. If you can make my life better, I will believe you. If you put me in dire straits, then I will definitely not believe you. There is no such thing as faith... It's all business."

Finally, he said a few words that were neither painful nor itchy.

The boss went to take care of his own business, leaving Xu Qingyan and Pei Yu alone.
