Cangbao Street, Zhongfu.
The first layer of the outer courtyard has a side hall.
After Qin Ziyue left, Yu Qingyao waved his hand to invite: "Fellow Taoist, please take a seat."
"Thanks."
The woman in Tsing Yi smiled and nodded, looking at Yuan Ziyi, marveling at her beauty, her eyes fell on the paper in her hand, her eyes showing suspicion.
"May I ask, who is the woman in this painting?"
Yuan Ziyi was surprised, looked at each other with Yu Qingyao, handed the portrait over, and asked: "Do you know me, fellow Taoist?"
The two portraits are of Lin Tan'er and his master from Guanghan Palace.
Yu Qingyao suddenly remembered that it was necessary for her family members to identify her, so she asked Xiao Xuening to draw a sketch, and then called Yuan Ziyi, who happened to meet the woman in front of her who claimed to be an old friend.
The woman in green took it, took out the next one, looked at it, shook her head and said, "I met her two by chance in Jingcheng a few months ago, but they didn't talk to each other. I don't know the details. This person's cultivation level should be extremely high."
Yuan Ziyi nodded: "We don't know him either."
The woman in green looked at her and asked, "Are you Qifeng Yuan Zhiqing?"
"Fellow Taoist, do you know me?"
Yuan Ziyi was startled, and then asked: "Fellow Taoist is from Jingcheng? Dare you ask me your surname?"
"Oh, sorry……"
The woman in green raised her hand and tugged on the back of her head, revealing her true appearance. She had a small almond-shaped face and a pretty face. She looked like she was in her mid-twenties.
She smiled and said: "I have heard of your name. I also practiced in the Fire Cloud Sect. My name is Zhou Yun. You probably don't know me."
Yu Qingyao's eyes flashed, feeling that the name sounded familiar.
At this time.
Zhou Yun turned to look at the yard and saw a rainbow falling to the ground.
Zhong Yan, who was wondering in his heart, looked intently and was stunned. His head was short-circuited for a moment. It turned out to be his adopted sister Zhou Yun who he thought had died!
"Brother!"
Tears welled up in Zhou Yun's eyes, she ran away and threw herself into Zhong Yan's arms.
Zhong Yan sighed for a moment and had many doubts in his heart. He rubbed her head with one hand and patted her back with the other, smiling and saying: "It'll be nice to come back..."
Only now did Yu Qingyao remember who it was. Her husband had mentioned it before.
After a while, Zhou Yun let go, with tears on her pretty face: "Brother, I miss you so much!"
"I miss you as well!"
Zhong Yan wiped her tears, very happy, pulled her into the hall, and said with a smile: "Come, let me introduce to you, this is Qin Ziyue, Yu Qingyao, Yuan Ziyi... Zhong Qiyu, my son, Yu Son, I have met my aunt."
The young man knelt down and saluted solemnly: "Greetings, aunt!"
"Get up, Yu'er, right? Be good!"
Zhou Yun smiled brightly and felt extremely emotional in her heart. After entering the city, she heard about some situations in the Zhong Mansion. She didn't expect that the eldest brother, who was not a womanizer, actually had dozens of wives and concubines.
After chatting for a while, Yuan Ziyi and others left, leaving the brother and sister to reminisce.
Zhong Yan asked: "Yunmei, where have you been these years?"
He couldn't see the other party's realm, not even Yuan Ziyi, whose spiritual consciousness was so powerful, must be above the golden elixir, and he must have encountered a great opportunity during this period.
"Second brother has told you about us, right?"
Zhou Yun looked relieved. Seeing Zhong Yan nodding, she said in detail: "That time I went to Yunmeng Swamp for training... On the way back to the sect, I received news from Shi Lingzhen's entrustment. Before that, she had talked to me. Pass……"
"Even as inner disciples, it is very difficult for people like us who have no background or support. There is competition everywhere and intrigues for resources..."
"Although Shi Lingzhen threatened me, I agree with her point of view in my heart. If no one supports me, my second brother and I will build the foundation on our own. I don't know how long it will take, let alone the pill formation in the future..."
Zhong Yan was silent, this is a fact.
The lowest-level foundation-building pill without Dao patterns has a uniform market price of two thousand low-grade spiritual stones. Those with Dao patterns are even more expensive, and inner disciples have to work hard to accumulate them for many years.
Han Jiuping's qualifications in Yangquanfang City are no worse than Huo Donglai's. After arriving in Fangshi, his income was higher. It was with his support that he succeeded in building the foundation. Now he has only built the third floor of the foundation.
Huo Donglai, with the help of his father-in-law, had already reached the late stage and completely distanced himself.
"I was very conflicted at the time. I had been in contact with Shi Lingzhen several times and heard some rumors. This woman was cruel and ruthless. I was afraid that she would really do something like 'destroy if you don't get it' and hurt my second brother..."
After a pause, Zhou Yun continued: "I was a little angry and impulsive at the time, so I left a letter to my second brother and left."
Zhong Yan sighed in his heart and asked, "So you left on your own? Have you ever encountered any chases or attacks?"
Zhou Yun shook her head: "No, I went to Yunmeng Swamp by myself again, and encountered a foundation-building monster. My thoughts were confused and I was in a bad mood, so I desperately wanted to die. A mysterious man appeared and saved me... …”
"She took me out of Yunmeng Swamp, accepted me as her disciple, taught me carefully, traveled all the way to Jingcheng in the south, sent me into Mangdang Mountain, opened a cave in the depths, set up a trap, taught me the skills, and left me He allocated a lot of resources to allow me to practice hard... It wasn't until I successfully formed the elixir last year that I broke out of the formation."
After Zhong Yan listened quietly, his eyes flashed and he asked: "Mysterious man? You didn't use the Spirit Fusion Pill to form the pill directly?"
Zhou Yun said: "Master is a woman. She always wears a mask. She has never seen her true appearance. She left me a four-way pattern-melting elixir."
After a pause, she shook her head and continued: "Looking back now, the master should have been in the foundation-building perfection state at that time. I don't understand why she didn't use it herself."
And there is such a good thing... Zhong Yan felt something weird in it, "She didn't tell you anything, what did she ask you to do?"
Zhou Yun: "No, there is no contact information. I just said that we will meet in the future if we are destined. Master and I have been together for less than a year."
Zhong Yan frowned and thought, there is no free lunch in the world.
He had confirmed with Shi Lingzhen that Wufeng, to be precise, was someone close to Shi Lingzhen, such as his father Shi Liangxiu, who had not interfered in Shi Lingzhen's personal relationships and would not have tampered with Zhou Yun's soul card. .
Although there was no soul search, Shi Lingzhen couldn't panic in that situation and said he could search the soul for verification.
Zhong Yan thought that his adopted sister had died unexpectedly.
Now that Zhou Yun is alive, someone else must have deliberately broken her soul card.
The answer is ready to come out - the mysterious master.
Being able to freely enter and leave the Baishi Hall of the Fire Cloud Sect and achieve the Perfect Foundation Establishment, he is obviously an elder-level figure within the sect.
But he doesn't know its purpose.
Zhou Yun looked at her brother's face and said, "Brother, do you think there is anything wrong? Although the contact time is not long, Master is very kind to me and I don't see any malice."
Zhong Yan shook his head and smiled: "This is your destiny."
Then he said: "Did you know that your soul card was broken? Donglai didn't receive your message at that time."
Zhou Yun was silent for a moment and said: "Shi Lingzhen did it...forget it, it's over."
Zhong Yan: "Have you ever gone to see Donglai?"
Zhou Yun looked relieved and said with a smile: "Look, I first met little Huo Qing in Jingcheng, then went to Lying Yunmeng Swamp, and met the second brother outside. I am satisfied knowing that he is living a good life now. .”
Zhong extended his hand and pressed her shoulder: "What are your plans for the future?"
With the complicated relationship between her, Huo Donglai and Shi Lingzhen, it may be difficult for them to get together in the future.
"Brother, don't you welcome me?"
Zhou Yun smiled and said: "I have been away from the sect for so many years, and now I am free. I have no plans for the time being."
If you leave the sect without any news for more than five years, the sect will automatically cancel your discipleship.
Zhong Yan said: "Then stay, this will be your home from now on."
"It's necessary! Brother, let's talk about you. You've changed no less than me! Your method of masking your aura is so amazing that I can't even see through it. Or did you use some treasure?"
