At the top of the Qingtan Peak of the Cangxu Sect, Yan Mingxiu left the main hall and ordered the disciples outside the hall to invite the two female disciples from the Yuyin Sect to the hall. He took out his magic weapon, the Autumn Wind Sad Painting Fan, and went to the back mountain courtyard to look for Yan Yueli and Wang Yuanting.
Not long after, Yan Mingxiu arrived at the back mountain courtyard and found the two people after looking for traces of the magic talisman.
He pushed the door open and saw Yan Yueli squinting her eyes and holding her chin with one hand, looking reluctant.
"Yan Nianxin" stood aside, half-bent, and kept saying something. It sounded like he was trying to apologize for Yan Mingxiu's fault.
That scene made it difficult for Yan Mingxiu to accept for a while. No one could accept that the good son he had finally raised was so attentive to that arrogant witch.
He raised his hand and untied the talisman attached to Wang Yuanting's body, cupped his hands and said, "I have just wronged you two."
Yan Yueli slowly opened her eyes, nodded slightly and said nothing more. Wang Yuanting spread his hands aside to show that he had nothing to do.
Yan Mingxiu knew clearly that Yan Yueli still remembered his rudeness outside Wuyou Town, but he had a reason for doing what he did. If he hadn't done it at that time, he would have been able to hide from the eyes in the dark.
But Yan Yueli is still a little girl in her late teens, and today's ups and downs are enough for her. Yan Mingxiu raised his head and looked at Yan Yueli's slightly swollen eyes, which seemed to be still swollen from crying too much. He sighed secretly in his heart: Hey, that's all, no matter how strong he is, he is just a child.
Yan Mingxiu sighed softly and said in a gentle tone: "Yan has offended a lot today, so I apologize here. I hope Palace Master Yan will not remember the faults of villains and put this grudge aside."
Yan Mingxiu's words were sincere, and Yan Yueli felt much better. She has resentment towards Yan Mingxiu, but she won't keep it in mind forever. After all, it was only through Yan Mingxiu's help that she and her mother got to know each other.
Yan Yueli immediately stood up, bowed and saluted, and said solemnly: "Senior Yan's words are serious. Today's kindness Yue Li will naturally remember in my heart. It's just that the title of 'adopted daughter' is not something I can bear. Please don't blame Senior Yan." .”
Yan Mingxiu couldn't help but laugh "haha", it turned out that he was a villain. What Yan Yueli cared about was not her defeat at his hands, but the fact that she had just been recognized as his adopted daughter.
It is not surprising that Yan Yueli considered this. After all, he had a "famous name". If he really accepted her as his adopted daughter, it would affect her reputation to some extent. It was indeed his lack of consideration.
Yan Mingxiu bowed slightly to apologize, and laughed loudly: "Of course I made up the nonsense, but Palace Master Yan can happily accept the title of sister-in-law. Palace Master Yan may not know that Ji Beichen and I are close friends, so to speak. Brothers of the opposite sex who love each other as brothers.”
"You! How do you know that he and I..." The secret in her heart was exposed in public, and a trace of panic flashed in Yan Yueli's eyes. She immediately turned back to look at Wang Yuanting behind her, with a stern frown and doubts on her face.
Wang Yuanting looked unjust and aggrieved. Even if he had the courage to tell others about the secrets of his palace master, he would not dare to tell others.
"Haha, this matter has nothing to do with Brother Wang. Palace Master Yan drove Lu Xinrui back to Jiujie Mountain twice and three times to prevent her from getting close to Ji Beichen. Yan is neither blind nor stupid. How could I not know the profound meaning of this?"
After Yan Ming finished speaking, the smile on his face was even more meaningful. This little girl put down her arrogance and looked much more pleasing to the eye.
"I didn't..." Yan Yueli was ashamed and annoyed, her fair cheeks flushed, as shy and gorgeous as peach blossoms in March.
Yan Mingxiu pursed his lips and smiled. He really felt that Ji Beichen had good taste. Although Yan Yueli was young, she was quite pretty.
Yan Yueli has the unique shyness of a young girl and the charm of a mature beauty. The two are perfectly blended together without being obtrusive at all. Compared to her mother Xi Yue's beauty and gentleness, her daughter is even more beautiful. .
She and Ji Beichen, a talented and beautiful woman, matched each other well. Since he wanted to have a concubine, why didn't he use his mature beauty to help this beautiful couple.
Thinking of this, Yan Mingxiu chuckled and said: "Miss Yan, there is no need to deny it in a hurry. If you don't have this affection in your heart, how can you care about my silly brother? In the end, it was him who mistakenly practiced the magic power and mental method, so let him Just explode and die!"
"No!" Yan Yueli burst out in a hurry, knowing she had lost her composure, bit her lower lip, and finally admitted generously: "I have secretly made a love for you, but I don't know what he thinks..."
Yan Mingxiu curled his lips. This little girl really has a simple mind. He told the truth after being forced like this. He just wanted to be a favor: "Simple! I give you this heart-asking talisman. Just ask and you will know!"
After saying that, Yan Mingxiu stretched out his hand into his sleeve. After a while, he spread his hand and handed a heart-asking talisman to Yan Yueli. Yan Yueli had never studied the art of talismans, so he had difficulty holding it in his hand: "Thank you, Senior Yan, I just don't know what to say." How to use it?"
"Watch it!" Yan Mingxiu took out a heart-asking talisman again, threw the talisman with a wave of his hand and landed firmly on Wang Yuanting's shoulder. The talisman immediately flashed a dark purple light.
Yan Mingxiu cleared his throat, looked directly at Wang Yuanting, and said solemnly: "Wang Yuanting, are you happy with Shen Qingxi?"
Wang Yuanting was stunned at first, and just when he was about to deny it, he felt that the Heart-Questing Talisman on his shoulder was hot, and the dark purple light gradually became brighter and flickered continuously.
"You really don't mean what you say." Yan Yueli couldn't help teasing her when she saw the reaction of the heart-asking talisman.
Wang Yuanting raised his hand to cover his mouth and coughed slightly, trying to cover up his embarrassment. Seeing that his efforts failed, he had to answer truthfully: "I've been happy for a long time."
Yan Mingxiu did not hide the smile on his face. He did so out of selfish motives. Wang Yuanting was smooth in life, and the secret that could not be escaped from his mouth. Today I took this opportunity to ask: "Wang Yuanting, when are you going to do it?" Marry Shen Qingxi as your wife?"
Wang Yuanting no longer hesitated this time, and admitted his defeat and told the truth: "Of course the sooner the better, but the old man didn't let me go at that time, and I was in trouble."
Yan Mingxiu nodded with great satisfaction, turned to Yan Yueli and said, "You see, once the Heart-Questing Talisman is possessed, it is difficult to tell lies."
Yan Yueli half-opened her mouth with an expression of surprise, and secretly said happily: I didn't expect this talisman to be so useful. With this heart-questioning talisman, I won't be afraid of Ji Beichen lying to her! No wonder my father said that Fu cultivators are the most difficult to deal with. Even he would take a detour if he met a Fu cultivator with a high level of cultivation.
Yan Mingxiu smiled proudly, stretched out three fingers and continued: "However, this heart-asking talisman also has a time limit. The person who is under the talisman can answer up to three questions, so what to ask, Miss Yan has to think about it in advance. Yan also If you have something to do, I won’t see you off, you two can just go down the mountain on your own.”
Yan Ming opened the door after repairing his words and left. Yan Yueli kept his words in mind, nodded thoughtfully, and carefully put away the heart-inquiring talisman.
"Palace Master, this heart-asking talisman has not been taken off yet." Wang Yuanting raised his finger and pointed at the talisman on his shoulder, the dark purple glimmer was still not extinguished.
Only then did Yan Yueli remember that the heart-asking talisman on Wang Yuanting's body had not expired, so she asked him casually: "Wang Yuanting, have you reported Ji Beichen's matter to the sect master?"
"I, didn't..." Before he could finish his words, the heart-asking talisman on Wang Yuanting's shoulder instantly lit up, and the dark purple light flickered one by one.
Yan Yueli didn't expect this result and immediately turned cold. Wang Yuanting still wanted to defend himself, but he felt his shoulders were as hot as fire, and dark purple light kept flickering. He knew that the Soul-Questing Talisman had reacted, and he quickly changed his words: "I, I said it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the terrible burning sensation disappeared instantly. Wang Yuanting covered his chest to take a breath and continued to explain: "But I didn't report it in person. I wrote a note and left it on the stone table in the back mountain. The sect master has not left seclusion yet. See."
Yan Yueli still had a cold face and refused to pay attention to anyone. She trusted her senior brother Wang Yuanting the most in the entire sect. She didn't expect that he would actually mess with her. She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart: "You are really a good disciple of my father. Hey, I am." I thought that I would go to the Ghost Doctor's Tomb to propose marriage for you when my father comes out of confinement, but it seems that I am wasting my time."
When Wang Yuanting heard this, he was so anxious that he ignored his physical discomfort and bowed to apologize: "Palace Master! I have no choice. After all, my responsibilities are here. You can't ignore Qingxi and I's affairs!"
Yan Yueli curled her lips. Although she saw how pitiful he was, she didn't want to forgive him so easily, so she took out the Canglan Sword with a cold face and left with the sword.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yuanting followed closely and chased after him with his sword. The two of them soon left Qingtan Peak. Wang Yuanting saw that Yan Yueli seemed to be flying towards the Soul Lifting Valley, so he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Palace Master, are you going to Are you going to find Junior Sister Qingxi?"
Seeing that he was so anxious, Yan Yueli's resentment disappeared by half, and then she laughed softly and said, "Senior Brother, if we don't go to Junior Sister Shen, how are we going to propose marriage?"
——
In the main hall of Qing Tan Peak, Mu Xiyao and Lin Miaoyin both collapsed to the ground in pain. Yan Mingxiu showed no pity to them at all, but it was a waste of all his hard work.
After all, Yuyin Sect is one of the "Four Great Immortal Sects". The disciples of the sect have some backbone and are very tight-lipped. The two of them were forced to carry the ordinary Heart-Questioning Talisman.
Yan Mingxiu had no choice but to add a fire-attribute spell to the heart-asking talisman, and finally forced out the truth of that day at Lin Yuan Peak. As expected, it was undoubtedly different from what Wang Yuanting had explained before.
Lu Shenji's face was as cold as ice. He looked at Lu Aotian who was kneeling on the ground, with a trace of disgust in his eyes: "Lv Aotian, is there anything wrong with you colluding with the disciples of the Huanmie Sect to besiege Ji Beichen?"
Lu Aotian shook his head desperately and shouted that he was wronged: "It's nothing, Master, you have to believe me, I was wronged!"
Lu Shenji saw that Lu Aotian was still stubborn and refused to let go. He touched the two curls of his beard beside his mouth, and with a strong heart he signaled Yan Mingxiu to cast the spell.
Lu Shenji and Lu Aotian had a master-disciple fight. They wanted to give Lu Aotian a chance to take the initiative to explain the whole story. He could also go to the acting head Xiao Shangqing to beg for mercy and spare his life for the time being. Who knows how stubborn this kid is? It doesn't work, and he insists that this matter has nothing to do with him, so you can't blame his ruthless men.
Yan Mingxiu gave instructions with a slight nod of his head, and spoke plausibly. He waved his hand and attached the prepared heart-asking talisman to Lu Aotian's heart, no longer caring about his fellow disciples.
"Lu Aotian, is it possible that you colluded with the disciples of the Huanmie Sect to besiege Ji Beichen?" Lu Shenji asked the same thing again, but this time his words were more decisive.
"It's not me, I didn't..." Just as Lu Aotian was about to deny it, the Heart-Questioning Talisman began to respond. He suddenly felt that his heart was unbearably hot, and a burning pain spread throughout his body. Then his energy and blood rose, and his meridians were in chaos. , like the punishment of burning!
