Chapter 410: Classic Theater, Popular with the Audience
Yin Li was speeding along at lightning speed, and in the blink of an eye she turned into a ray of colorful rainbow light and fell into Jiang Yan's courtyard, smashing the ground and causing it to crack. At the same time, Yin Li's figure was revealed.
Jiang Yan looked over and saw that Yin Li's clothes were disheveled, her black hair was a mess, and there were two abnormal blushes from her cheeks to her ears, like a ripe apple, and her eyes showed a complicated look as if hope was disillusioned.
The whole person looks like he has been... done something.
Of course, this is Yin Li in Jiang Yan's eyes, inevitably mixed with some of his evil little fantasies, well... just a little bit.
What Yin Li is actually like is not something Jiang Yan can find out now.
In fact... the actual situation is not much different from what Jiang Yan thought.
Yin Li, who had finally recovered, quickly perked up, suppressed the chaotic erotic fantasies in her mind, and quickly scanned the surroundings with her mind. Then she saw Jiang Yan standing not far away.
No one came, and the two of them fell into silence for a moment.
It was Jiang Yan who spoke first: "Look, let's see each other now."
Yin Li was stunned at first, then showed an anxious look. After hesitating for a moment, she said decisively: "Mr. Jiang, save me! Take me away from here!"
Jiang Yan was equally decisive. He took a step forward and appeared in front of her in a flash. He raised his hand, grabbed her wrist, and turned into a streak of light and fled away at a very fast speed!
Finally, Jiang Yan looked back at the courtyard he had left.
Seeing a vague and soft figure looming under the moonlight in the courtyard, I felt a little relieved.
Then, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice spoke jokingly above their heads:
"Run, run, let's see where you can run to!"
Yin Li's originally relaxed expression was suddenly filled with anger!
"To all!"
Jiang Yan had a weird expression... Why did he have such a... weird feeling?
A space fluctuation came from the front of the escaping light. Jiang Yan's eyes condensed and he pulled Yin Li, who was a little drunk, and drew the magic power from his body frantically. At this moment, the escaping light suddenly increased by more than double!
He narrowly avoided the space ripples.
When he looked back again, he saw Yu Zhong's figure suddenly appear from nowhere, holding a broken ruler in his hand.
Seeing that they dodged, he was not annoyed. Instead, he slowly activated the "Jie You Chi" again, took a step forward and followed them from a distance, like a cat playing with a mouse, trying to exhaust their magic power.
"Since it was Ming'er who did it, she must have a deeper meaning. I will just act according to the circumstances."
This thought flashed through Jiang Yan's mind, and his face became solemn.
At this moment, Yin Li knew that the only way to survive was to escape from this man's pursuit, so he quickly explained the other party's identity and background as well as the magic weapon in his hand.
As expected, Yin Li was almost certain that the man was Yu Zhong. After all, magical weapons with distinctive features like the "Jieyou Ruler" were rare in the world of cultivation.
Seeing that Yin Li didn't notice his abnormality, Jiang Yan calmly communicated with "Yu Zhong" who was hanging behind him.
"Alright, that's enough. I'll find a chance to escape."
Without saying a word to the crowd, he threw out two streaks of silver light, which flew close to Jiang Yan's head.
"Master, remember to be honest."
As he spoke, two more spells came out.
"How filial! I am leaving now, Master!"
In this way, Jiang Yan's escape method, which seemed to be activated at a certain cost, disappeared in an instant and left "Yu Zhong" behind.
He fled for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief. He coughed up blood and his face turned paler. After being comforted by Yin Li, the matter seemed to be over.
"Um……"
"?"
When the dust settled, Jiang Yan regained his consciousness, but suddenly found that he had been feeling something strange. When he looked in the direction of his feeling, he found that Yin Li was gritting her teeth and lowering her head. She could not see her body trembling, but from the "touch", it was unusually clear.
At this moment, Yin Li was staring at her hand that he had grabbed. Jiang Yan suddenly understood.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't ask you in advance because it was an emergency."
Although he said so, Jiang Yan had no intention of letting go. After all, he was now playing the role of the "hunted", and he couldn't let go easily while trying to escape by controlling the light of escape, so as not to delay the escape speed.
"Hmm~"
Yin Li's body trembled, and she let out a soft "hmm" from between her teeth. Her voice was trembling and soft, with a hint of inexplicable meaning, as if she was suppressing something.
"This is……"
Jiang Yan's mind flashed through the somewhat "seductive" sounds he had heard from Shen Ming before, and he quietly let go of Yin Li's hand, risking exposing his plan.
"It's hot. It's hot in every sense of the word."
"Don't move! Just hold on to me! I've been poisoned by that devil, and I can't stand steadily!"
But Yin Li, like a frightened bird, grabbed Jiang Yan's hand with her backhand, and then moved away from Jiang Yan. She was in a strange state... wanting to get closer but not daring to get too close.
Feeling the burning heat in his hands, Jiang Yan sat upright and cursed Shen Ming in his heart for being so unprofessional.
Using this to test cadres? Which cadre cannot stand such a test?
Jiang Yan seemed to be able to feel Shen Ming's cold gaze watching him from behind. As long as he did anything out of line, or was the target of any out-of-line behavior, he would not be able to relax without paying a price afterwards.
……
In order to ease Yin Li's current condition, Jiang Yan pretended not to notice her abnormality and asked some random questions from time to time in an attempt to divert her attention.
Yin Li seemed to be afraid that Jiang Yan would find out that something was wrong with her, so she suppressed her emotion and answered calmly throughout the whole process. The two of them kept asking and answering each other, and the atmosphere became awkward.
Similarly, Jiang Yan got a general understanding of what Yin Li had experienced during the questioning.
To sum up, the story is old-fashioned, the content is exciting, and the result is gratifying.
The old-fashioned thing is that it is still the same story of the rise of a small person, with the independent elder Yu Zhong as the protagonist, but he uses an old man from the Yuanlian Sect as a golden finger shell, and his "proud" things are "accidentally" revealed.
Elder Lin Wanyue discovered that there was something wrong with Yu Zhong, so she invited him to come and secretly test him. As a result, he was imprisoned and forced to tell the inside story of Huayinfang.
Then, when everyone was relaxing during the halftime break, he emitted a breath, which was captured by Yin Li and he went there alone.
With her special physique, she would not have been discovered at all, but Yu Zhong had buried special things within a hundred miles of her.
She was caught off guard and fell into the trap. Her breath leaked out due to her emotional excitement. After a fierce fight, she was tied up by the thief and became a cellmate with "Lin Wanyue".
The most explosive part is that during the process, "Yu Zhong" questioned Lin Wanyue again in front of Yin Li. His method was so despicable that even with Yin Li's personality, she couldn't help but grit her teeth in hatred.
When Jiang Yan asked her, she was so ashamed and angry that she gritted her teeth and refused to speak. He was tactful and did not ask any more questions.
But it must be something beyond the times. After all, with Shen Ming's "wonderful ideas" and his occasional inspiration, it should be...
Ahem, as for the ending, Lin Wanyue found the right moment to self-destruct in order to protect Yin Li, and by delaying time, Yin Li escaped as expected.
She ran away and dodged all the way and temporarily got rid of the other party, but the "poison" in that dangerous place was not eliminated. In a daze, she subconsciously returned to Jiang Yan's courtyard.
So we have this scene now.
"Instead of passively waiting, it is better to take the initiative and use a disaster to turn the two independent parties into an alliance that shares adversity. This will help you get rid of suspicion and speed up your entry into Huayinfang."
"This method is indeed good, but the ending is really... too bad..."
Jiang Yan looked at Yin Li, who seemed calm on the surface but was actually suppressing herself, and a strange look flashed across his eyes.
Yin Li's physique can read people's minds, and she has a deep understanding of the seven emotions. She couldn't control her physique in the past, and although she was able to restrain herself a little with Jiang Yan's experience, she still couldn't control it easily.
Shen Ming buried dozens of small Juefeng peach branches in the ground, and the scent emitted from them poured into the mirror, staining even the most transparent mirror.
What’s more, Yin Li is a person with a heart as pure as a child.
Being young and ignorant, she suffered a "major" blow before her three views were stable, and her cognition was severely expanded by the devil "Yu Zhong".
So at this moment, her spirit was fragile and her body was weak, and it was already very difficult for her to barely suppress her body's instinctive "impulse".
If someone were to give it a little provocation at this moment, something "welcome" would probably happen.
Plus, Yin Li's physique can change at will, so tempting~
"Shen Ming is not honest!"
Jiang Yan had no doubt that if he had any improper thoughts at this moment, Shen Ming would definitely come to him in a miraculous way.
Of course, Jiang Yan disdained such thoughts. "The unconscious man taking advantage of others' misfortune is not as exciting as the awake Overlord's attack! I'm not being polite, Shen Ming!"
Buzz!
A sharp pain came from the soul, Jiang Yan frowned severely, and his eyes were spinning and his head was dizzy.
"Master~"
A distant and ethereal voice came faintly. Jiang Yan shook his head gently, and it took him a long time to regain consciousness.
"Okay, I'm just teasing you. You are allowed to tease me, but I am not allowed to tease you."
"Humph……"
The voice faded away, Jiang Yan slowly restrained his smile, glanced at Yin Li, thinking in his heart.
"Jingming Prefecture... follow the waters of Yunxia City and go straight up along the Feiyu River, crossing several waters..."
This was the direction Yin Li told Jiang Yan of his escape direction. She had informed her master in time. With their current escape speed, they would probably meet him in the middle and lower reaches of the Feiyu River.
Jiang Yan recalled the scenery of Jinglan Territory that Yin Li had introduced before, and found that there was a gathering place for ordinary people in the middle upstream hundreds of miles away from the confluence place, and it was quite large.
It was the Jingming Mansion.
Qianyu River is divided into two branches through Jingming Prefecture. The northern branch is called "Feihong Bridge", named after the 72-arch stone bridge across the river; the southern branch is called "Cangzhoupu", which is densely covered with secret ports. It is the place where the Lan Dynasty navy stationed their ships and also a trade pass. Half of it is in a closed state, and the other half is also controlled by the Shi family.
The Lan Dynasty Palace is located in the northern branch, only a few cities away from Jingming Prefecture. In the southern branch is the Jiangxue Palace, which is a sacred place for the students of Jinglan Territory.
With Jingming Prefecture as the center and Qianyu River as the thread, it is like a string of silver beads, extending down to Yunxia City in the border area and up to Suiyu Snow Mountain in the northwest, the source of Qianyu River. From here, 72 water systems extend out, closely connecting them.
This is what Jiang Yan knew.
"Yin Li contacted her master when she had no way out, and then I got rid of Shen Ming. If we calculate based on the time at that time, I would have set off at my current speed and met up with the owner of Huayinfang in Jingming Mansion..."
"Does this mean... that Huayinfang's hiding place is not too far from Jingming Mansion? It's nearby?"
A gleam of light flashed in Jiang Yan's eyes, but he suppressed his thoughts in time.
Because in his perception, he could vaguely see the blurry figure of a man in black.
The other party did not use his divine sense to scan, but just raised his head slightly as if to take a look. After finding that Yin Li was fine, his figure disappeared in a flash! Not even a trace of breath was left behind...
This made all the words Jiang Yan had prepared invalid, and he looked stunned.
"Is that... your master?"
Yin Li nodded heavily!
"Yes, it's my master."
Jiang Yan's mind swept across the deserted place from afar, and he turned to look at Yin Li, his voice rising a few degrees:
"Are you sure that's your master? Is there any master who doesn't care about his apprentice so much? He just took a look and left it alone?"
Yin Li nodded silently.
"Master didn't care about me. He even asked me if I was okay."
"So how did you respond?"
"I said it's okay, it's just that I consumed a lot of energy and it will be fine after a while to recover. Besides, I've already gotten rid of the tracking."
"and then?"
Yin Li blinked: "As long as he says it's okay..."
"Gone?"
"Gone……"
Jiang Yan fell silent, not knowing what he was thinking. Yin Li might have felt a little awkward, so she subconsciously added another sentence.
"Master also said that there is no need to rush back after you recover. It is not good to practice in the house all day. Just treat this time as a vacation..."
"This is a good thing. It's rare to enjoy life while you can. How can we bear to waste our time practicing meditation and sitting in boredom? Haha."
Jiang Yan laughed, but he felt a little heavy in his heart.
"This so-called abbot is a little... too cautious?"
"If I'm right, this monk must not have gone far, hiding in the dark to observe my every move and investigate my background."
'Even though I have given a reason for my appearance, the sudden appearance of such a casual cultivator... is still a bit abrupt.'
"Besides, is there a master who doesn't care about his apprentice so much?"
Jiang Yan swapped identities in his mind and suddenly felt that there was something weird about the other party.
'Only those demonic cultivators and evil cultivators would hide and cower like him, but from Yin Li's perspective, if he was really an evil cultivator, he would definitely not recognize him as a master!'
'It's so interesting that even the elders of the sect can boast of the name "Huayin", but as the master of the temple, he can only watch from afar when his own disciples are in danger.'
"You are... afraid of me..."
“Interesting~”
Yin Li's ears pricked up slightly: "What's interesting?"
Jiang Yan's lips curled up slightly: "Your master is really interesting. I think he doesn't care about you at all."
"You're talking nonsense! My master loves me the most!"
Jiang Yan frowned slightly. Why did Yin Li's mood change so much? She didn't even call him "Mr.". This was unlike her usual personality.
Then, Yin Li's arms were trembling slightly as she held Jiang Yan, her head was lowered, and her body was hot.
The search in Jiang Yan's eyes gradually dissipated, and then gradually widened.
Then, Yin Li's trembling gradually intensified, and the force on her arm became stronger and stronger, as if she was about to sink into it. Then Yin Li suddenly became quiet, as if the clouds had stopped and the rain had stopped...
Jiang Yan's brows twitched.
"This... is so sensitive..."
