Yao Yue Chapter 4 - Remnants of bliss

yy cv
The carriages and horses drove steadily along the Yunluo Mountains. Snowflakes were flying outside the carriages, and they continued to fall, decorating the surrounding peaks and the many Qiong Palace Buddhist temples in the middle of the mountains, making it a Yaotai wonderland. Halfway down the mountain, there was a vast expanse of water, like a sea of snow. The snowflakes are like cotton and wadding, flying all over the sky, and it is impossible to tell whether the snow is flying up or falling.

Jiangyun is located in the north, and across the Yunluo Mountains is the uninhabited Ice Cave Pole. The Yunluo Mountains are as tall as clouds and block most of the cold waves. Therefore, it snows all year and is extremely cold.

Xingxuan took her to escape. He couldn't use the teleportation array, and he couldn't wield a sword, so the two of them could only ride in a carriage. Fortunately, these horses are blessed with talismans, so they don't need to be pulled, and their legs and feet are very fast.

Yao Yue shivered again. She didn't have the magic power to warm her. It was still too cold for her to be here. Although Xingxuan was already in the realm of spirit transformation, he was wrapped in a black mink fur cloak. When he saw her shivering from the cold, he showed a contemptuous smile.

"The arrogant Chiyu fairy, now she doesn't even have the spiritual power to ward off the cold?"

She knew she was weak and couldn't speak quickly, so she turned her head and pretended not to hear. Xingxuan felt bored, and then, as if remembering something, he took off his cloak and threw it to her in a compassionate manner.

"Well, wear it. It's no fun if you freeze to death."

She didn't hesitate to refuse and immediately retracted herself into the warm mink fur, and some color finally returned to her pale face.

"How long does it take to get to Muxian?"

Muxian and Jiangyun are both in the north. You only need to follow the Yunluo Mountains, which span the two states, to reach Muxian.

Finding a place to protect her during her cultivation shouldn't be an issue because she built a branch of the sect in Muxian, and her disciples are in charge of it.

"Don't worry, we'll be there soon." As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage stopped.

She followed the man out of the carriage, and suddenly a strong, cold wind swept up the snow particles in the sky, causing her cheeks to hurt. The carriage stopped at the boundary monument. The cold iron boundary monument was almost submerged by the heavy snow. The three words "Muyun Peak" could be vaguely seen. She couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart, although Muyun Peak took one name from each of the two states.

However, it is a gray area that neither of the immortal officials of the two states want to govern. Just because Muyun Peak is the highest peak of the Yunluo Mountain Range, the mountain is extremely steep, and there are many snow monsters and mandrills that appear and prey on people.

"You..." She turned around to say something to the man, but suddenly there was a pain in her chest!

I saw the blood-stained sword tip coming out of my chest, and every beat of my heart amplified the pain. She gasped in pain and shock. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, but she couldn't breathe in any air. Her heart was frantically shrinking the blood in her body, her brain was dizzy, her knees were weak, and she fell to the ground!

The person behind her slowly pulled out the three-foot Qingfeng sword that was submerged in her body and threw out a string of blood beads on the snow, like falling red plums, very bright.

Xingxuan looked down at the woman lying in a pool of blood, with long-simmering cruel pleasure on his face.

If she chose to stay in the Xingji Pavilion, he would spare her life for his brother, but she didn't even think about it. Then she chose to leave. One more day she lives, and one more day her brother will suffer!

"I thought the Baili Demon wouldn't bleed because she has no heart."

There are many monsters in this place, and when the smell of blood comes, she will be eaten up to nothing. The man took one last glance at the girl, who had already accumulated a layer of snow on her body, stepped onto the carriage, and never looked back.

Not long after, several mandrills covered with long black hair came over to prepare for a feast. Just as he was about to cut the body apart with his claws, a layer of netherworld flames suddenly ignited from the man's body! The flames shot up several feet high, and the nearest monster had no time to dodge. The flames burned its hair and were burned to ashes in a matter of breaths!




She kept sinking into the ocean of memory and reality. Her soul seemed to be separated from her body, and her whole person became light and airy.

A soft call came to her ears, like a ray of sunshine falling from the water, which allowed her to regain some consciousness in the endless darkness until she held a big hand and was pulled into an embrace by that hand.

This embrace was warm and generous, making her feel at ease inexplicably.

"Why are you running?"

The man's tone was very low and mellow, with a pleasant sandy feel, penetrating through and touching the heartstrings. It was a voice that she was all too familiar with.

"I..."

The two of them had made a soul contract. As long as one of them was still alive, he could use his own mana and energy to resurrect the other. The soul contract still exists after reincarnation, and the lover regards it as the sweetest vow.

"Only Xingyuan knows the exact time you woke up." He reached out a hand and placed it between her fingers, interlocking them.

"You left with him, didn't you?"

She said nothing.

The man exhaled quietly, experiencing a tinge of melancholy that he didn't recognize.

"Where are you?"

She knew that Jiang Mi was angry, but she didn't know how to explain it. She moved her lips and uttered a few dry words.

"I'm at Muyun Peak. Please heal me first."

She doesn't have anything else to think about, even if it's only to deceive him.

She was depressed for a moment, bit her lip, and whispered, "Please show mercy, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, and give this slave a chance to live."

This was not what he wanted to hear but there was not enough time, and he really couldn't delay it any longer.

The chaotic darkness suddenly tore out a ray of white light from under her body, as if falling from the clouds at a high speed, and everything around her turned into shadows and then turned into reality the moment she landed. The broken wound healed quickly, and she finally heard Bei Feng's whimpering again.

But there seemed to be two more people in front of her. Fearing that it was Xingxuan's subordinates, she simply continued to close her eyes and pretend to be dead.

Unexpectedly, one of them helped her up, and a strange fragrance instantly hit her nostrils. The man lifted her hair and seemed to be studying her and laughed at the end.

"I just said that if you walk a few more steps, it won't be in vain! Look, I picked up a young lady with a pure yin body and a good face—enough for my master to play for a year and a half!"

"Come on."

The two people were a man and a woman. When she was embraced by the woman, she could smell the fragrance on her body and knew where they were from.

That fragrance is the joy of all living beings in the Hehuan Sect.

As for why she knew it so well, it was natural because she had once been a member of the Hehuan Sect.

Her master, the Taiyi Immortal Lord, returned to the immortal world when she was thirteen years old, leaving her to practice alone on a deep mountain in Tianjun. She is known as the Heavenly Star Official who came to this world, and she can ascend through self-cultivation.

The internal skills and mental techniques that the old man taught her were all very mysterious, and coupled with her top-notch Tianling roots, all six series of spells were at her fingertips. She has been practicing in the mountains for another three years. Although she has figured out some moves, she has no one to practice them with. She has killed very few of the ferocious beasts in the mountains, and she is reluctant to deal heavy blows to the spiritual beasts. I was so bored that I thought of going down the mountain to join the world.

Naturally, the first place she went was Wanjian Mountain, which was also known as the number one sect in the world in Tianjun. It's a pity that this sect only practices the most powerful swordsmanship and does not accept women. She wandered all the way to the Great Freedom Hall in Chiyouzhou, where all the monks naturally did not accept women. When she arrived in Jiangyun, she saw the group of people in Xingji Pavilion dancing and writing all day long, drawing talismans and arranging formations, which was not to her liking. The small sect was even more unwilling to accept her. After seeing her skills, he thought she was deliberately looking for trouble, which made the scene quite unpleasant.

She can enter Hehuan Sect if she wanted to.

She originally came here with the intention of studying, but was told that all the mental and internal skills practiced here had to be mated with others, and she was a little unhappy at first. Although those fellow apprentices were not ugly, one day they slept with the same fellow apprentice, and the next day they slept with another younger sister. It was like animals in the mountains going into heat regardless of the occasion, and she felt dirty. So she asked herself to clean the sect's scripture collection pavilion and searched for some exercises that she liked in the sect's collection of books every day, but she couldn't find a few exercises, and she was only filled with erotic pictures.

So not long after, she took the initiative to quit the sect. But the ancestor of the Hehuan Sect, who had been coveting her extremely yin body for a long time, was not willing to let the duck fly away, so he had the incense in her room replaced by a very strong aphrodisiac fragrance. What they didn't expect was that when she was practicing in the mountains, she ate clouds, drank dew, and ate spiritual flowers and fruits in the mountains every day. Ordinary poisons couldn't do anything to her. What's more, she was already in a state of enlightenment when she came out of the mountain. If she wanted to leave, who could stop her?

This group of people from the Hehuan Sect cared about sexual pleasure every day and had no knowledge. They overestimated their capabilities and wanted to tie her up and rape her, but she happened to be using them to practice. After the fight, many were killed or injured. Seeing that she was no match, the remaining people gave her the name of someone who deceived her teachers and destroyed her ancestors, and she fled to the mountains.

It turned out that these remnants of the Hehuan Sect were hiding on Muyun Peak.

She was carried by the male disciple and ran in a winding way into the hinterland of the mountains. Unexpectedly, there was a geothermal hot spring in Muyun Peak, so the group dug a nearby cave as a shelter. She squinted her eyes and secretly looked at this extremely wide, circular cave.

A ball of white light hung on the top of the cave, like a bright moon shining in all directions, shining brightly everywhere, as white as day. This cave is tall and flat, with five circular cave doors in a row on the inner round wall.

The two caves on the far left and right seem to be the residences of the disciples, and obscene words can be heard from a distance. The second hole from the left should be the place where elixirs and poisonous incense are refined. There are ancient cauldrons of different sizes and shapes, and light smoke of red, black, and gold rises straight up. Three feet away from the cauldron, it condenses into a black lotus shape, gathering together but never breaking up. The second hole from the right was filled with furnace cauldrons that were tied up like hers. There were men and women, all of whom were lowly monks or ordinary people.

The hole in the middle was so deep that it was impossible to see what was going on inside from the outside. She estimated that it should be the residence of the master.

The man threw her on the tattered straw mat in the cave and patted her face.

"Okay, stop pretending. I know you are awake."

She had no choice but to open her eyes and look around. The other kidnapped people were huddled in the corner of the cave, seemingly very afraid of this man. Only a girl in black, about seventeen or eighteen years old, sat motionless in the seat closest to her.

"If your body weren't extremely yin, I would definitely keep you for my own use." He smiled lewdly and touched her face.

"Look at the mink fur you're wearing. It's not cheap. Why did you run away without thinking? Are you going to die in the deep mountains and old forests?"

Yao Yue brushed his hand away calmly and replied with a smile.

"I had a quarrel with my family."

"That's a pity..." He was still waiting. When he said something, the female disciple who was accompanying him pulled him over and tugged on his ears with a sour look on her face.

He was in so much pain that he quickly begged for mercy, "Good junior sister, good Yu Niang, I didn't mean it!"

Her name is Yu Niang.

The female disciple snorted coldly, took back her hand, turned to look at her, and spoke slowly.

"The last batch of gifts for the master are almost finished. I will send you in three days. Now that you are here, don't think of escaping. If you serve the master well, then maybe you can live longer."

Yao Yue smiled softly. This smile is very plain, but I don't know why. It just brings out a little color. It seems a bit violent, but more of a bright color.

This smile obviously made Yu Niang quite unhappy. She gritted her teeth and said, "You don't know what it is to die."

Then she led the man away.

Once they left, the remaining people seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. A few couldn't help but come up and ask questions. When they heard her say that she didn't know magic, they sat back with their eyes straightened, staring at the stone wall in a daze as if they were hopeless.

She saw that many of these people were starting to turn black, probably because they had been fed some evil medicine. Only the girl in black had clear eyes, seemed unaffected, and seemed to have some foundation. So she took the initiative to move over to chat.

Who would have thought that this person was quite arrogant, and she ignored her greetings. She just hummed.

Yao Yue felt bored and was about to move to a position farther away from her. The corner of her eye caught the thin layer of her mouth, and she paused slightly.

Oh, she is still a female swordsman.
