It was raining heavily. Although it was almost noon, the sky was still very dark. Under the heavy rain, more than a hundred disciples stood respectfully on both sides of Hanshan Pavilion.

"Don't be presumptuous, Qin Dao, step back," Qin Si looked back at Qin Dao and said softly.

Qin Dao's expression changed slightly and he said anxiously: "Young Master, just let me go. Lin Ye, you are not afraid anymore!"

Lin Ye waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay, come on."

"Young Master!" Qin Dao seemed to listen to Qin Si's words and asked again. Qin Si shook his head helplessly and said, "As soon as possible."

"Okay, I will fight quickly!" Qin Dao looked overjoyed and did not hesitate. With his true energy rising, he suddenly drew his sword and drove away the wind and rain, and slashed at Lin Ye!

"Lin Ye, be careful!!"

Lin Ye's expression remained unchanged, he dodged Qin Dao's sword with a slight side of his body, and then gently pressed Qin Dao's knife-holding wrist with his right hand. No matter how hard Qin Dao tried, he could not lift the sword.

At this moment, Lin Ye stepped closer to Qin Dao's body and hit Qin Dao's chest with his left elbow.

Qin Dao's eyes widened, he clutched his stomach and fell to his knees on the ground, lifeless.

With just one blow, Qin Dao, who had reached the third level, was killed!

The faces of the disciples of the Lushan Sword Sect all changed, and they looked at Lin Ye with some fear. Qin Si was not surprised by this result. He shook his head and said, "You are humiliating yourself and making Brother Lin laugh."

"No, no, I just won by luck. Senior Qin, Brother Qin, follow me into the mountain."

Lin Ye led a group of thirty-seven people from the Lushan Sword Sect along the main mountain road, climbed the Yunwu Mountain, arrived at the boundary of Tianxia Hall, and arrived at the residential area arranged for the Lushan Sword Sect as Jiang Chen had said.

"Seniors and brothers, please stay here temporarily while you are in the Qingcheng Sect. You can arrange these forty houses as you like."

Qin Yi nodded, Qin Si smiled and said: "Then I won't bother Brother Lin."

"Okay," Lin Ye said nonchalantly, suddenly pulled Qin Hao over, and said with a smile: "Brother Qin, it's okay for Qin Hao and I to catch up on old times."

"Of course there is no problem."

Lin Ye pushed Qin Hao away and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll treat you to a meal inside the door."

"...Hmm." Qin Hao forced a smile.

Lin Ye said helplessly: "Why do I think you are not very interested? What's wrong?"

Qin Hao sighed and wanted to say something, but then shook his head.

"What's wrong? You weren't like this before?"

"Oh, let's not talk about it anymore."

Lin Ye said helplessly: "What happened? What happened to Ye Yuan? Just bring her to the Qingcheng faction. I can also see that you two are not a good match."

Qin Hao fell silent and said nothing.

Lin Ye took Qin Hao to the commercial street. He found a barbecue restaurant on the roadside and sat in. He said to the owner of the store: "Boss, grill three kilograms of beef and three kilograms of pork!"

"okay!"

The heavy rain pattered on the ceiling and outside, but the fragrant smell of barbecue permeated the neighborhood, attracting many people to come in.

Lin Ye sat on his seat, looked at Qin Hao and said: "It seems that the past two months have not been very good, the energy is so low."

Qin Hao continued to be silent, and finally he said: "Perhaps it is best for her to come to the Qingcheng sect. When I return, I will send her over..."

"Okay, with Ye Yuan's qualifications, it shouldn't be a big problem joining our Qingcheng Sect."

These are extraordinary times. The threshold for entry into the Qingcheng Sect has been lowered by more than one level, and the requirements for female disciples are even lower.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

Qin Hao continued to remain silent and did not speak.

"The barbecue is here, please take advantage of it, gentlemen!" At this time, the owner of the shop came over personally carrying a large plate of meat and said with a smile: "Young City Master, I'll take this order today!"

Lin Ye: "...No, I don't lack the money."

"No, no, no, Young City Master, it's rare for you to come to my little shop, so just let me invite you! From now on, just take care of my business more often!"

"Oh well."

"Okay!" The shop owner suddenly looked overjoyed. If the young city lord of the Qingcheng faction could establish a relationship with Lin Ye, he would be willing to pay for all of Lin Ye's meals in the future.

"Boss, your reputation has been getting bigger and bigger in the past few months." On the other side, Qin Hao finally spoke, showing a smile.

Lin Ye blinked: "Is there any? How big is it?"

"It is simply unheard of to fully enter the third level of martial arts at the age of eighteen. Now you have become the young city master of the Qingcheng Sect. Looking at the past and present, I am afraid that you are the only one... Boss, are you there?

Is there no criticism in the city?"

"Criticism, what do you mean?"

"Even in Lushan, the criticism against you is huge. Haven't you heard of it?"

"This...really doesn't exist."

Lin Ye had never heard of it, but he really didn't know if it was secretly there. After all, Lin Ye's identity and strength were there. No one would say such unpleasant words in front of Lin Ye.

"Yeah...this is good."

"What's wrong with you? You feel like you've changed too much."

Qin Hao's expression became darker and darker, and he finally whispered: "I seem... to have never understood myself."

"Why do you say that?"

Qin Hao was silent for a long time, and then said: "Originally, I thought I really liked Ye Yuan, even though my father expelled me from the sect... Ye Yuan and I wandered around the world for a long time..."

"I can see that Ye Yuan is willing...but...I am shaken!!" After saying this, Qin Hao suddenly became excited and hugged his head tightly.

"We wandered in the rivers and lakes, and it was good at first. We would form this small family, live normally and happily together, but, but!!"

"I can't stand this life at all!!"

"After leaving Lushan, leaving the Qin family, there are no more secret books, no more elixirs, and no teacher's guidance. It is impossible to make even half a step forward in martial arts! I feel more and more anxious, and I don't want to live in it every minute.

Go down!!"

"me!!"

Lin Ye also frowned: "What's wrong with you? Where is Ye Yuan!?"

"I-I hit her! I-I'm not a man!!"

Qin Hao hugged his head tightly and lay on the table.

"You!!" Lin Ye didn't know what to say anymore and shouted: "What will you do to Ye Yuan next?"

"Actually, I regretted it after I beat her, but...but...I took her back to Lushan forcibly. I apologized to my father and returned to Lushan...Who am I?!

"

"Where is Ye Yuan?" Lin Ye continued to ask.

"She, she...she..."

"Won't she be locked up by you?"

"..."

Lin Ye suddenly stood up: "Let's go, take me back to Lushan and pick up Ye Yuan! Do you hear me?"

"Now!?"

"What do you think?"
