Chapter 415: A Chance Encounter With Brother

Chapter 415: A Chance Encounter With Brother

*Creak---*

The wooden door of the private room slowly closed.

After Ye Anping left, the room fell silent.

Commander Fu Xuan and Yue Xuanming looked at the map with four routes left behind by Ye Anping, and they could not help but frown slightly.

They had already had a hunch that the demonic cultivators would lay siege to the Eastern Wall cities.

But before Ye Anping came, it was just a hunch.

Now that they knew that the ***Ghost Spirit*** Sect Patriarch was leading the invasion, there was no way that the three cities could be defended.

With a slightly bitter smile, Fu Xuan put the map into the storage bag and turned to Yun Tianchong. "We will also leave now. Just as Young Master Ye said, I advise you to take the disciples of the Sword Sect away as soon as possible."

"Goodbye..."

Fu Xuan and Yue Xuanming cupped their hands in salute one after another, then turned around and left.

*Creak---*

The door opened and closed again, and only Yun Yiyi and Yun Tianchong were left in the room.

Yun Tianchong took a deep breath. At this moment, he had mixed feelings in his heart. He had brought the disciples of the Sword Sect here for the primary purpose of gathering the *Justice Division* people and bringing them to the Sword Sect.

The secondary purpose was to take the girls out to see the world, travel around, and repair the fragile father-daughter relationship.

But as they say, misfortunes never come singly.

After encountering the sandstorm and demonic beast attacks, over nine hundred Sword Sect disciples were scattered and only sixty managed to reach the Great Wall. They originally thought they could rest for a while after their arrival, but eventually, they heard the news that the ***Ghost Spirit*** Sect was about to attack the Wall after less than a day of rest...

Yun Tianchong felt a little embarrassed to tell the Sword Sect disciples this bad news.

There must be a limit to bad luck, right?

"Sigh..." Yun Tianchong let out a long breath and looked up at Yun Yiyi. "Yiyi, this matter... Hey?! Where are you going?"

He wanted to ask Yun Yiyi's opinion, but before he could finish, Yun Yiyi already chased after Fu Xuan and the others and ran out.

*Tap, tap, tap---*

When Yun Tianchong reached the door, Yun Yiyi had already run downstairs.

Although he didn't know where Yun Yiyi was going, if it was really as Ye Anping said, and the ***Ghost Spirit*** Sect wanted to besiege the Eastern Wall cities, then there must have been demonic cultivators who had come here to scout for news.

The Yun family's blond hair was really conspicuous here. Yun Yiyi and the others would be recognized at a glance by the demonic cultivator spies hidden in the city as they walked the streets.

Logically speaking, those demonic cultivator spies wouldn't expose themselves by kidnapping them on the street, but what if?

Yun Tianchong ran to the third-floor lobby of the restaurant, called Zhang Yihe, who was chatting with other disciples, and instructed him. "Zhang Yihe, send some people to call back all the Sword Sect disciples who are wandering around the city. No one is allowed to leave this restaurant without my permission. And get someone to keep an eye on the surroundings."

"Eh? Patriarch... what happened?"

"Don't ask so many questions, just do as I tell you. I'll go get Jiujiu and the others."

...

The sun had already set, and the shops in the **Brilliance City** lit up lanterns one after another and hung them on both sides of the street. The number of pedestrians on the streets gradually increased.

Yun Yiyi rushed out of the restaurant and swept her gaze on both sides of the street. Seeing Ye Anping walking toward East Street in the crowd, she quickly chased after him.

"Anping! Wait... Hey?"U//ppTodated fr/o/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m

However, as soon as she reached out her hand to touch Ye Anping's back, she was hindered by the passers-by.

Yun Yiyi bit her lips lightly, hesitating for a moment. Then, she lifted her dress slightly and with small, urgent steps, quickly chased after him.

"Why are you walking so fast..."

After so many years of not seeing her, why did Ye Anping not react at all?

Although the matter of demonic cultivators that he mentioned earlier was indeed rather urgent, it shouldn't be so urgent that he did not even have time to catch up with her, right?

Doesn't he have anything to say to me?

"Anping! Wait!!"

Yun Yiyi shouted as she chased the figure in front of her and shuttled fast through the crowd. She didn't know if Ye Anping did it on purpose or if he really didn't hear her, but he never looked back once, and his pace became faster and faster.

Every time she was about to catch up with him, there would always be some passers-by blocking her way.

"Anping!!!"

She didn't know how many streets she had run through, but when she reached an intersection, the figure vaguely visible in the crowd had completely disappeared.

Yun Yiyi stopped in her tracks and looked around. She slowly lowered her golden-white dress, covering her exposed white ankles and gold-rimmed embroidered shoes.

"..."

Yun Yiyi pursed her lips tightly, her eyes revealing endless disappointment. She clenched the corner of her clothes and lowered her head.

"Does he really not want to see me..."

She closed her eyes and exhaled, then turned around and prepared to go back. Since the ***Ghost Spirit*** Sect was about to attack the city, they had to escape as soon as possible. There were a lot of things waiting for her to do...

But just as she turned around, a hand pressed on her shoulder.

!

Ye Anping glanced around, raised his hand, and lowered the edge of his hat slightly, covering his and Yun Yiyi's heads a little. Then, he closed his eyes to feel the tip of the lips that tasted different from Xiao Yunluo and his sister.

After a while, Yun Yiyi's heels finally landed back on the ground.

Once the spell was broken, she blushed and lowered her head. "I'll pay you back the rest later..."

"Didn't you call off the engagement?"

"Breaking off the engagement doesn't mean that I don't like you..."

Yun Yiyi lowered her eyes slowly and continued to snuggle into Ye Anping's arms like a maggot. She leaned her head back against his chest and listened to the quickening heartbeats amidst the noisy street.

Ye Anping let out a long sigh and glanced at Yun Jiujiu who was facing away from them, looking at them in a very tangled way, wanting to look but not wanting to.

Seeing that she had already formed her Core, he congratulated her. "Second Miss Yun, have you already formed your Core?"

"Well, when you and Feng Yu Die left, I went to overcome the tribulation. By the way, I sent something to Feng Yu Die. Did she receive it? I don't know where my eagle flew to. It has never come back..."

Ye Anping was stunned. He remembered the messenger eagle that brought the secondary golden pills. It seemed that it failed to fly when he threw it out of the window and broke its wings...

"Ah... she got it. Sister Feng used it up to pay tribute to her master, and then put it on the black market. It hasn't been sold yet..."

Yun Jiujiu: "? That thing... she put it on the black market?"

"Uh... Who knows what she thinks?" Ye Anping looked away and quickly changed the topic. "Yiyi, let's find a place to sit and chat. I have something to say to you. When I talked to Master Yue before, because your father was present, I only informed the *Justice Division* of the arrangements. Sword Sect might be coming with us on this trip."

Yun Yiyi nodded, but she still didn't let go. She looked left and right and coincidentally, there was a small restaurant on the street that looked pretty good. "Well... let's go there."

"Okay."

Ye Anping nodded in agreement, but seeing that she didn't let go, he sighed helplessly and simply tripped Yun Yiyi's heel with his right foot before picking her up in a princess carry.

"Hey?!"

"What can I do if you hold me like this..."

Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.

Just as Ye Anping was about to carry Yun Yiyi to sit down in that small restaurant, a crisp bell suddenly rang in his consciousness, causing him to freeze on the spot like a puppet.

*Jingle-ling-ling---*

*Jing-ling-ling---*

The bell was rather close, sounding as if it was only about one hundred feet away from him.

Yun Yiyi saw that he suddenly froze and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Shh--" Ye Anping shook his head slightly and signaled her to keep quiet. "Don't talk."

"..."

His first thought was that Xue Tianqiao had escaped from his sister's hands and ran to the streets to play, then she happened to come here, but thinking about it, his sister wouldn't be so careless...

However, just as he was holding Yun Yiyi, and turned to look behind him...

A dark little figure stood in front of him, with her arms crossed on her chest and narrowed eyes as she stared at him...

"..."

*"..."*

"..."

*"..."*

Ye Anping and Xue'e stared at each other in silence.

The deep purple eyes were as still as still water, but the dark eyes of Xue'e gradually widened, and a hint of fear appeared in them. She opened her mouth and shouted, *"Ming..."*

However, the moment it shouted a word, Ye Anping frowned and ordered. "Tian!"

In a flash, Xiao Tian rushed out from his brow like a golden feather arrow and headbutted Xue'e's belly.

*"Ugh!"*

Xue'e was too late to dodge and was hit by Xiao Tian's head, drawing a black parabola in the air and then falling heavily to the ground.

*"Hiss-- you gold..."*

*Boo hoo--*

Xiao Tian didn't give her a chance to speak. She punched her in the face, knocking Xue'e's head directly into the mud.

"Since I was beaten by you last time, I have been practicing boxing and lifting weights in my Anping's soul realm every day. Watch how I beat your face this time! Humph!"

"..."

Yun Yiyi couldn't see Xiao Tian and Xue'e, but seeing Ye Anping staring at the ground not far away, she couldn't help asking, "Tian?... Tian who?"

Yun Jiujiu: "Ah? Why are you calling me?"

Ye Anping didn't say anything. He hugged Yun Yiyi and wanted to jump onto the eaves to leave the place.

However, just as he was about to jump onto the roof of the building next door, he found that there was already someone on the roof.

In the dusk, two women and one man stood on the roof of an inn by the street with their hands behind their backs, looking around.

As if sensing his gaze, the three people on the roof slowly turned their heads to look at Ye Anping and Yun Yiyi, in his arms.
