When Yin Feijing heard that the Heartbreak Pill had no antidote, her face suddenly turned pale.
No antidote?
Could it be that she would really die from the poison three months later?
Just as Yin Feijing was in a panic, Ye Yu tapped her forehead lightly with his finger.
“Alright, just like that, the poison is already resolved.”
Yin Feijing was bewildered.
“Is that it? Just a tap is enough?”
“Actually, you don’t even need to tap it; it’s just a candy pill. There’s no poison at all!”
Hearing Ye Yu's words, Yin Feijing gritted her teeth in anger.
At this moment, she realized she had been played by Ye Yu.
What Heartbreak Pill? It was just a candy pill!
No wonder it had tasted a bit sweet when she had eaten it earlier.
So that was the reason.
“Ye Yu! I won’t let you off!”
Yin Feijing's furious roar erupted in the palace.
To this, Emperor Yin Zhi just regarded it as a playful game between the couple.
Tsk tsk tsk.
So young, yet so full of energy!
After a moment, Yin Feijing ultimately couldn’t catch up with Ye Yu.
Instead, she was stopped by various formations, leaving her exasperated.
Thus, she glared at Ye Yu, preparing to say goodbye and return to the Southern Barbarian Continent.
Before leaving, Yin Zhi handed her the ring that Zhou Xuan had left in the Lan Kingdom.
“This is the token of love that your aunt left for me. I have kept it well all this time. Now, you can take it with you. Also, tell her I’ll wait for her to return to the imperial palace in the Lan Kingdom. If she doesn’t come back within a month, I’ll go look for her.”
Yin Feijing accepted the ring and nodded.
“I will definitely relay the message. But you’d better tidy yourself up first. You know what I mean, right?”
Yin Feijing spoke quite indirectly, but Yin Zhi's face became somewhat unnatural.
In truth, he understood very well.
It was time for him to take care of himself.
Over the years, he had neglected his appearance.
He had grown plump and had white hair, resembling a frail old man.
Such an image was truly unfit to be with Zhou Xuan.
After pondering for a moment, Yin Zhi said softly, “Let your aunt come back to see me in two months. I should tidy up. Tomorrow, I’ll get some elixirs to rejuvenate myself.”
Yin Feijing forced a smile.
Her clever mind, through yesterday's understanding, led her to guess that this trip to the Lan Kingdom wasn’t a trial at all.
Instead, it was merely to see if Yin Zhi had changed his heart.
Now that she had seen him, aside from aging, his heart remained unchanged.
Knowing this answer, her aunt Zhou Xuan would surely be very pleased.
Just as Yin Feijing was about to leave, Yin Zhi called out to her again.
“By the way, you also bear the surname Yin. Are you sure Zhou Xuan is just your aunt and not...”
He only said half of this sentence, but the implication was clear.
Yin Feijing was instantly overwhelmed with black lines on her forehead.
She roared, “My father’s surname is Yin! So I also bear the surname Yin. What’s wrong with that? It's just a coincidence! What are you thinking about?”
Seeing Yin Feijing lose her temper, Yin Zhi dared not say more and quickly waved his hand.
Yin Feijing snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Before she departed, she didn’t forget to face the east and say, “I’m leaving!”
With that, Yin Feijing transformed into a streak of light and vanished.
After she left, Ye Yu appeared from the east, watching the direction where Yin Feijing had disappeared, and waved slightly.
Regardless of the circumstances, this fox demon had a good heart.
However, whenever he saw her, he just wanted to tease her.
The Southern Barbarian Continent, huh? I wonder if there are any cat girls there.
If there were any, it would be a big deal.
That afternoon, Ye Yu and Li Nian’an, along with others, left the Lan Kingdom and returned to the Spirit Boat, setting off again towards the direction of the Chiyin Cliff.
Along with them were four cultivators from the Lan Kingdom who were proficient in formations. Their cultivation levels were not high, only around the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm, but they were better than nothing.
After all, following yesterday’s battle, the only advanced formation master in the Lan Kingdom, Wu Renbi, had been killed.
The Qingyun Sect needed people, and they could only pick from those with disabilities.
At first, Yin Zhi was quite curious about why they needed formation cultivators. Ye Yu's mastery of formations was enough to crush everything. Under such circumstances, why bother to come here to borrow someone?
Ye Yu's answer to Yin Zhi was, “A gentleman keeps his talents hidden.”
No one else knew about his mastery of formations, so he asked Yin Zhi to keep it a secret.
After hearing this, Yin Zhi agreed without hesitation.
Of course! Ye Yu had just saved his life yesterday. With such a huge favor, what was the difficulty in helping to keep a secret?
Moreover, Ye Yu had another identity—he was his niece's son-in-law.
At present, Yin Feijing only needed to go back and speak well of him, and he and Zhou Xuan might have a chance to rekindle their relationship.
At this time, if Yin Zhi were to make things difficult for Ye Yu, Yin Feijing might very well give him a hard time in front of Zhou Xuan.
That would truly be counterproductive.
As night fell, inside the Spirit Boat, Ye Yu was examining the storage ring he had received from Yin Feijing.
He discovered that the most valuable item inside was a mid-grade spiritual artifact, the Demon-Breaking Umbrella!
After infusing it with spiritual energy, it could not only withstand most attacks below the Transformation Realm but could also gather ghosts and evil spirits, trapping them inside the umbrella for refinement.
It was indeed impressive.
Aside from that, the other artifacts were a bit beneath Ye Yu's notice.
There was no helping it; his perspective had been continually elevated recently.
People always need to make progress.
Some artifacts were truly not something he could show off.
Ye Yu put the storage ring away and considered whether to take this opportunity to conduct a dream simulation.
Suddenly, the Spirit Boat came to a stop, which piqued Ye Yu’s curiosity.
He stepped out of his room and saw an incredibly vast mountain range ahead.
Li Nian’an walked over slowly and said in a deep voice, “We’ve arrived. This is the Jue Tian Mountain Range. Get off the boat!”
Upon hearing this, everyone leaped off the Spirit Boat, and Ye Yu followed closely behind.
Once they arrived, Ye Yu was surprised to find that aside from them, there were two groups of cultivators waiting here.
Ye Yu was quite curious.
Afterward, with Li Nian’an's explanation, Ye Yu finally understood everything.
The two groups waiting here were from the Xuan Du Sect and the Kai Shan Village. They were also here to eliminate the Chiyin Cliff.
Eliminating the Demon Sect was a big deal.
The Qingyun Sect was not acting alone this time.
To ensure everything was foolproof, Sect Master Luo Ze had invited several close sects to join in the extermination.
These people could be seen as reinforcements.
Of course, such an anti-demon operation was also the best opportunity to gain prestige in the cultivation world.
These sects would certainly not miss out.
Ye Yu glanced around and noticed that the cultivators gathered here had already reached nearly three hundred.
They could not be considered weak.
Even so, according to Li Nian’an, it wasn’t over yet. Another sect was supposed to be arriving soon.
As soon as Li Nian’an finished speaking, a Spirit Boat sped in rapidly.
After it stabilized, dozens of cultivators walked out.
Among the crowd, Ye Yu spotted a figure that looked exceptionally familiar.
