Xiao Yushan understood that Qu Yangzi was protecting him. Ye Zichen nodded. He put on a silver robe and walked out of the Elder Pavilion.

"You scoundrel, where did you run off to to play? Why didn't you bring me along?" Si Hui rushed out when she heard the sound of the door opening. In the past seven days, every time she heard the door opening, she had been hoping that Xiao Yushan had returned.

He looked at the cute girl in his arms and her tear-stained face. Xiao Yushan's heart hurt. After walking back from Yama, he now understood the word 'cherish' even more clearly.

Thinking back to what the Elder Yun said to him, he never thought that he would actually master the ability of Devouring Rat to devour. He knew that the secret on his body could not be known by anyone. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't live past the next day. Thinking about that old man from that night, Xiao Yushan couldn't help but ask why he was lured out. Who was the other party under the orders of?

Hearing that Xiao Yushan was safe and sound, Xi Fu did not dare believe it. If he hadn't heard it from his father, he wouldn't have believed it even if he had been beaten to death. That was a warrior rank guard, yet he had returned with a broken arm and was seriously injured. He could not help but feel some lingering fear.

"We can't let him live. If he does, he will become a huge threat to us in the future." Jia Xingzi squinted his eyes and said.

"The Flower Viewing Ceremony will be held soon, if only we …" Xi Fu said softly to Jia Xingzi.

The approach of the Flower Viewing Ceremony was also the target of Xiao Yushan's visit this time. Xiao Yushan silently calculated the methods to deal with the Single Moon Flower. Spending only a day of time, his Moon Sect would definitely be heavily guarded, and getting close to the Single Moon Flower would be even more difficult, let alone taking it away. But the essential ingredient for the recovery of the Elder Yun was the flower of the Single Moon Flower, which had bloomed for only a day.

The Elder Yun was his benefactor, if he could not repay this kindness, how could he cultivate? It would be better to just become scum.

"Don't worry. When you pick the flowers, I'll give you a hand." Elder Yun's voice sounded in his mind.

"Old man, don't worry. There are only two possibilities. If you spend it on people, you'll end up with nothing." Hearing Xiao Yushan's words, the Elder Yun couldn't help but be moved. Through his understanding of this child, although his talent was average, his will was firm and his heart was honest. Elder Yun had long since treated it as his own.

Sitting under a tree in the center of the courtyard, quietly feeling his body, Xiao Yushan also noticed the abnormality. That day, his body was already in pieces, and he was saved by Qu Yangzi afterwards. Although it was related to that pool of medicinal liquid, Xiao Yushan could clearly feel that his meridians were much stronger than before. Was it related to the Devouring Rat blood essence he had obtained?

After carefully inspecting his body, he did not find anything unusual. At this moment, he once again circulated the Dou Qi within his body. The circulation of battle qi was smoother than before. He could now use many battle skills that he could not continuously use.

Without thinking any further, he once again circulated his divine eyes and controlled his Qi to escape, slowly increasing his own strength bit by bit. He understood that in battle, sometimes he would miss by a thousand miles. The basics must not be ignored. The most practical moves were usually the most basic moves, only the control over the timing of their use was different.

Si Hui who was in the house walked out and looked at the man who was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard. She did not even look away, afraid that he would leave again.

For some unknown reason, ever since they had met on Full Moon Cliff, her heart had already been completely occupied by this man. Mommy, Mommy, could this be the feeling you said I don't understand? " He thought silently in his heart.

Asking what love is in this world is a direct guide to life and death. From ancient times until now, no one had been able to read the word 'love'. It was unknown if it was fate or the will of the heavens giving people an unbreakable shackle. It was invisibly linked to everything in the world, indirectly controlling the tens of thousands of people in the world.

"Tomorrow is the day of the Moon-Viewing Flower. The Solitary Moon Flower will only bloom for a day. If you fail, you will have to wait eighty years." Elder Yun's words resounded in his mind.

"I will know my limits. Tonight, I want to recover my strength to perfection. Tomorrow, I will try my best to fight for it." Xiao Yushan knew that he could only take this one step at a time.

"Yushan, I'm here, the old fellow is looking for you," Hong Ji coincidentally said at this time.

Without a word, he stood up and followed Hong Ji out.

"Where are you going? Take me with you, okay?" Seeing that Xiao Yushan was about to leave, Si Hui had long since lost patience. Her heart was currently focused on this man.

Xiao Yushan knew that if he did not let her follow, this fool would definitely cry and cause trouble. Helpless, he turned around and pulled Si Hui's hand, then followed after Hong Ji's footsteps.

Seeing the two of them acting so intimately, Hong Ji, who was walking in front, could not help but let out a mischievous laugh: "Why is our Little Princess pestering your big brother Yushan all day long?"

"Big Brother Yushan is mine, we want to be together," Si Hui said very seriously. Saying it out loud was simple. At this moment, she didn't know what her words meant.

"He shook his head helplessly. Xiao Yushan also liked this naive girl a lot. In terms of age, the two of them are almost the same. In the world of cultivation, there was almost no second person as pure and innocent as this little girl could give him a sense of human nature.

Within the Deyue Sect at night, the only thing that could not be lacking was the moonlight. The moon had draped a layer of clothes over the land, and looking at Si Hui, whose large eyes were smashing against the moonlight, even Xiao Yushan himself did not know what kind of feeling he had in his heart.

When he arrived at the Elder Pavilion, Qu Yangzi had already been sitting there and waiting for him. With his eyes closed, he carried a cup of tea in his hands. The silver robe that hadn't changed since the ancient times shined brightly under the moonlight. The crisscrossing teacups, however, revealed a completely different world.

"Old man, it's the middle of the night and we're not allowed to sleep, why did you call us here?" Hong Ji said.

"Cough cough cough. I've said it before, I'm only a few years older than you. Why do I have to be called an old guy?" Qu Yangzi said with dissatisfaction.

"You, you are not allowed to bully my big brother Yushan." Si Hui stood up and pointed to Qu Yangzi who was sitting down.

"Little Si Hui, you only known him for a few days, and you already took him away?" Qu Yangzi smiled as he looked at the baffling Si Hui. Si Hui could not help but blush and hid behind Xiao Yushan. Qu Yangzi and Sect Master Si Hui grew up together, they had long treated Si Hui as their own little sister, so in the entire Deyue Sect, the only person who would dare to point fingers at Qu Yangzi's nose and talk like this was probably Si Hui.

"I wonder why Senior Qu Yangzi is looking for me so late in the night?" Xiao Yushan got straight to the point.

"Am I old?" Qu Yangzi only pretended to be angry and did not answer him.

"Yushan didn't mean to do that …" Qu Yangzi continued before he finished speaking.
