Just when the woman in plain clothes was about to signal the two old men behind her to take action, her expression suddenly changed, as if she had sensed something, and she turned her head to look in a certain direction.
Yunzheng also looked in the direction of her sight, and saw several more figures appearing in the distant void. In less than an instant, those figures had already appeared within the barrier.
Shockingly fast.
Yunzheng's eyes darkened slightly, these mysterious people all came from the border.
She had previously searched the soul of a mysterious man who was on the verge of death. In that person's memory, the boundary existed at the junction of the Tianyin Demon Realm and the God Realm, and there were three major guarding families there, namely the Wanqi Family, the Cu Family, Huyan family.
Among them, the head of the Wanqi family was the culprit who caused the destruction of Tianshu Immortal Academy more than 600 years ago.
At this time, a male voice with a smile came slowly.
"Long time no see, Huyan Lingyun."
The woman in plain clothes is Huyan Lingyun. She is the granddaughter of the head of the Huyan family, and she is also the eldest daughter of Huyan Yushu.
Huyan Lingyun raised his eyes slightly and looked warily at the people who suddenly appeared in front of him. The young man at the head looked like he was about twenty-seven or seventy-eight years old. He was dressed in a gilded brocade robe. He was tall, tall, and fierce. His eyes were long and thin, with a faint smile on his pink lips.
Huyan Lingyun's expression was still smiling, "Cu Minglei, your Chu family received the news very quickly."
Chu Minglei smiled and waved his hand, "Where, if our Chu family receives the news faster than you, how can we be one step slower than your Huyan family?"
The conversation between the two was polite and seemed harmonious, but there was a faint air of tit-for-tat.
Chu Minglei raised his eyes and looked around, "Who is the senior sister Yunzheng of Tianshu Immortal Academy?"
"I am." Yunzheng responded.
Chu Minglei suddenly fixed his eyes on Yunzheng, and was stunned by her appearance and temperament for a moment. He soon regained his composure, took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "That's it, our Lord, the Master of the Chu family, wants to meet you. Just think of it as making a friend.”
His attitude and tone were very easy-going, but there was a hint of respect.
Compared with Hu Yan Lingyun's attitude just now, Chu Minglei is more approachable, which makes people feel good about him.
Although Huyan Lingyun's tone was gentle, it was like gentle knives, with a sense of oppression.
"Make friends?" Yunzheng raised an eyebrow.
Chu Minglei smiled and nodded, "Yes, our Lord wants to get to know you and a few other friends. By the way, you don't have to be burdened or worried. Our Chu family will not force you to do anything."
Before Yunzheng could answer, Huyan Lingyun chuckled.
"Cui Minglei, everything must be done on a first-come, first-served basis. I haven't finished talking to Miss Yun, and you rashly intervened. Isn't that... not good?" Although Huyan Lingyun smiled, his eyes were sharp.
"That's right." Chu Minglei was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
The next moment, he changed the topic slightly, "But this matter is different. I want to give Miss Yun and the others one more choice."
Huyan Lingyun's smile dimmed a bit. If the people from the Chu family had come a little later, I'm afraid Yunzheng and the others would have followed them back to Huyan's house.
But at this critical moment, an accident occurred.
Chu Minglei turned around and asked with a smile, "Miss Yun, what do you think?"
Huyan Lingyun was a little anxious, "Miss Yun, I didn't think carefully just now. I thought about it carefully and asked you to go to Huyan's house with us first to see the specific situation. What benefits and resources do you want? You can mention it to our Lord, and if you are still not satisfied, we can send you back safely."
"Huh? Send it back safely?"
Chu Minglei frowned, showing a suspicious look, "There is a saying, well... a sheep enters a tiger's mouth, and there is no return..."
When Chu Minglei said this, his words suddenly stopped, and then he looked at Huyan Lingyun with humility and laughed a few times, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean anything else, and I didn't have any connotation for you Huyan family."
Huyan Lingyun kept a smile on his face, but in his heart he wanted to slap Cu Minglei to death with one palm!
This guy Chu Minglei is clearly saying that what she said is untrue!
Huyan Lingyun ignored Chu Minglei, but stared at Yunzheng, trying to get her to give an answer.
At this time, the disciples of Tianshu Immortal Academy and Lian Pihou were reduced to backgrounds, without even a chance to speak.
They looked at their senior sister eagerly.
Yunzheng spoke slowly, "We will go with whoever can keep my Tianshu Immortal Academy safe."
When everyone in Tianshu Immortal Academy heard this, they were so moved that they burst into tears.
Senior sister is so kind!
May I ask which fairy academy has such a strong, beautiful, and good senior sister? !
Huyan Lingyun frowned when he heard this.
Chu Minglei raised his eyebrows and looked quite surprised.
When they came to Langzhou, their main goal was to recruit Yunzheng and others into the family, but they never thought of taking into account the other disciples of Tianshu Immortal Academy.
After all, the head of the Wanqi family named the forces to be destroyed, and the other two families did not want to get involved. However, with the power of their family, it was more than enough to save Yunzheng and the others.
For a moment, the surroundings fell into silence.
Huyan Lingyun was obviously thinking, while Chu Minglei stared at Yunzheng with a smile.
Yunzheng sighed softly, "If you can't protect Tianshu Immortal Academy, then go back."
Huyan Lingyun slowly raised his head and said with a gentle smile: "Miss Yun, your request is really too much."
"Is it difficult?" Yunzheng smiled. She just wanted them to retreat in spite of the difficulties. If they agree, it is indeed a good choice. Anyway, they are just going to the border and will not join one of the three guarding families.
Moreover, the Tianyin Demon Realm is right on the border.
They will eventually accompany Zhongli to the Tianyin Demon Realm, undo the curse on him, and regain half of his original soul.
Chu Minglei shook his head with a smile, "It's really difficult."
Then, he said: "Miss Yun, our Chu family just wants to invite you to be our guests. Don't you agree to this request?"
"I can be a guest." Yunzheng nodded and said with a smile, "But not at this time."
Chu Minglei no longer pressed, and smiled and said: "You just agree. If you can survive the next offensive of the Wanqi family, send me a message. I will personally come to take you there. The Chu family is a guest."
He handed a piece of communication crystal jade to Yunzheng.
"Okay." Yunzheng accepted it calmly.
Huyan Lingyun frowned slightly. She wanted to take Yunzheng and the others back by force, but with these people from the Chu family here, she couldn't do anything.
At this time, Chu Minglei looked at Huyan Lingyun, smiled and said, "Huyan Lingyun, why don't we go back together?"
