In fact, even the leader of the monks wanted to know who the young man was, but it was better not to inquire about the affairs of the Nascent Soul monk.
No one knows which words will unintentionally touch the other person's negative side.
Li Yan, who had already entered the formation, heard the conversation of the few people behind him even though he didn't deliberately listen. His expression remained as usual, but he already had a new judgment in his heart.
"The real purpose of Donglin Tingyue's outing should only be known to the high-ranking monks in the clan, and he has also deliberately kept it secret.
Her cousin is injured, and she doesn’t want others to know about it, lest her enemies know that their combat power has been weakened..."
With just a few words from the other party, Li Yan had already thought of many things.
Dongshuang Tingyue must have thought of something in her heart, as there was a large amount of chill in her beautiful eyes.
Under the protection of the family, these disciples in the clan have fought less with the outside world in recent years, but their words are no longer serious. "Those who are thoughtful" can think of many things through these few words in an instant.
She had no choice. If she looked for the antidote outside, she would definitely reveal some information, and there would also be a reasonable explanation within the clan.
And with her status in the Nascent Soul Realm, even if others know that she has many cousins, they will immediately make guesses about the cousin who has already conceived a baby. This is inevitable, and she prevents her from doing so.
Can't.
"We need to inform the law enforcement elders about this matter later, and let these disciples kill more sea monsters if they have nothing else to do. Don't spend the whole day besides practicing and patrolling, thinking nothing about anything..."
In an elegant courtyard, Dong Lintingyue personally arranged Li Yan's residence and left in a hurry.
Li Yan was also noncommittal about this. After carefully exploring the courtyard, he finally chose a room, and after setting some restrictions around it, he sat cross-legged and meditated in the room.
What he never expected was that he would wait for four days.
This made Li Yan, who was originally calm, couldn't help but wonder. Donglin Tingyue needed to inform the clan of the news that someone was coming for treatment. This was understandable, but it was abnormal for such a long time.
But given that Shangguan Tianque once told him carefully about some things about the Donglin family.
Thinking that the other party only had one late-stage great monk and that he had a good relationship with "Pojunmen", Li Yan still waited patiently.
However, the vigilance in his heart has become more and more heightened, and he has also placed his spiritual consciousness on alert near his residence and expanded the area by thousands of feet.
There is no way around it, his character has always been like this, and just as Zhao Min said to Li Zhaoyan, Li Yan's ability to survive to this day is not just due to his combat prowess.
At midnight on the fourth day, Li Yan, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly raised his head.
"Huh? Come to the door in the middle of the night!"
Just as Li Yan's eyes flickered, Dong Lin Tingyue's voice came from outside the courtyard.
"Friend Daoist Li!"
She arranged for Li Yan's residence to be located so that there was no one else nearby, so she was not afraid that anyone nearby would know about it at this moment.
As she finished speaking, the courtyard door opened. Donglin Tingyue did not waste any time, and then she floated in like a spirit goose. In the room, Li Yan looked at Donglin Tingyue, who looked tired. There was a flash of light in the depths of his eyes, but he did not speak first, but looked at him quietly.
After Donglin Tingyue saw Li Yan, she seemed to be a little sluggish, as if she was organizing words. After counting her breath, she slowly spoke.
"Fellow Daoist Li, can you tell me exactly how confident you are? Although you have told me some things before, I still want to hear your answer!"
"Seventy to eighty percent!"
Li Yan spoke without any hesitation, as if he knew the question she wanted to ask. What he said was the same as what he said in Fangshi Inn, and there was no change.
The two of them returned together. Along the way, Li Yan saw that Donglin Tingyue looked relatively relaxed on the road after seeing him take action at the Fangshi Inn, but his expression at this time revealed tiredness.
Li Yan guessed that after the other party came back, everyone in the clan must have discussed what kind of obstacles they encountered, so she didn't show up for a few days.
As soon as you come here, you need to confirm again.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Donglin Tingyue's eyes quickly showed a decisive look.
"Okay, I will take fellow Taoists there in a moment, but this requires fellow Taoists to swear by their inner demons. Later in the Donglin family, no matter what they see, they are not allowed to tell anyone what they saw, and there is nothing else.
Asked for it."
After Li Yan heard this, he frowned. The other party actually asked him to swear on his inner demon.
"Fairy Tingyue, your approach has put Li in a difficult position. We have never had this kind of negotiation before. Li feels that your approach is inappropriate.
If there is no reason that can convince Li, then I forgive Li Yan for not obeying his orders, I think it is better to send Li away from here."
As Li Yan spoke, his face darkened. The other party's sudden request made him extremely unhappy.
"Fellow Daoist Li, please don't have any misunderstandings. This matter involves some unknown secrets of our clan. This is just a request from our side.
I just need you not to tell anyone what you saw, and there is no other intention. As long as Fellow Daoist Li agrees, I can give all the remaining weight of that silver sand to Fellow Daoist Li!"
Donglin Tingyue had obviously thought about it for a long time, so he was not surprised by Li Yan's displeasure.
But while he was speaking, he waved his jade hand, and two identical jade bottles, which were also only as thick as a thumb, appeared in the air.
One of the jade bottles was filled with more than half of the bottle of silver sand, while the other was filled with less than half of the bottle. Li Yan's eyes flashed, and the jade bottle with more than half of the bottle of silver sand was his.
Saw it in the market.
"She divided the smoothie she got into two parts, or more parts, and only took out part of it..."
Li Yan thought quickly in his mind.
And Donglin Tingyue looked at him like this. After dozens of breaths passed, Li Yan finally spoke again.
"I can agree to this condition, but fellow Taoist still has a lot of money on hand.
Since there is less silver sand like this, Li wants to trade it together in other ways, is that possible?"
After saying this, he stared at the other party with burning eyes. After seeing Li Yan agree, Donglin Tingyue also felt relieved. After hearing the second half of Li Yan's words, she shook her head with a wry smile.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I can also swear this on my inner demon. I got this bottle of silver sand by chance deep in the 'Tianyao Grassland', but there is only so much in total, there is no more."
"oh?"
After Li Yan was confused, he didn't continue to ask.
"Let's do this. Regardless of whether Fellow Daoist can remove the poison in the end, in addition to exchanging this bottle of silver sand as agreed, I will also burn a jade slip map of the location where I got the silver sand and give it to Fellow Daoist Li. I wonder if this is okay?
?”
Donglin Tingyue seemed to have thought about it for a long time, and continued without any pause, staring at Li Yan with a pair of beautiful eyes.
After more than ten breaths passed, Li Yan's calm face suddenly showed a smile.
"Hehehe... then I would like to thank Fairy Tingyue, but it is also troublesome for Fairy to swear by her inner demons on the authenticity of the jade slips of the map, and that she will not have any more of this kind of silver sand in her hand!"
Li Yan chuckled and looked back at the other person with a smile, without the slightest hint of offending him.
"no problem!"
Donglin Tingyue nodded and put forward the limiting rules himself. Of course the other party would also have their own requirements, which was reasonable.
But she also realized that Li Yan was difficult to deal with. In fact, when he took out all the silver sand, he could ask her to make an oath to make sure that he took out all the silver sand.
But Li Yan did not, and instead proposed to exchange the other two bottles of silver sand in other ways, even if he insisted that there was no more silver sand.
He didn't say what he said about making the inner demon oath until now. If he hesitates again at this time, it means he is continuing to lie.
Li Yan on the other side was already mumbling words, and soon a blood-colored scroll appeared in front of him. There was originally no word on the scroll, but as Li Yan chanted, lines of small words quickly appeared on it.
In just two breaths, as soon as Li Yan stopped chanting in a low voice, a rune flew out from the center of his eyebrows, and the rune had a faint restraining power.
In a flash, he disappeared into the bloody scroll in front of him.
Suddenly, the blood-colored scroll that was originally spreading calmly rose and fell like waves. As it rose and fell, an aura of decay and vicissitudes of life spread out from it.
The moment these breaths came out, Li Yan felt several powerful spiritual consciousnesses sweeping towards him from several directions at the same time.
These consciousnesses did not sweep towards Li Yan, but fell on the bloody scroll in an instant. Although Li Yan sensed it, his expression did not change at all, as if he had not noticed it.
Donglin Tingyue had been looking at Li Yan. She stood so quietly. It was only at this moment that she raised her eyes and looked at the red scroll.
After she looked carefully at the ancient words above, a smile appeared in her eyes.
"Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Li!"
< br> What is written above is exactly what Li Yan vowed to sacrifice his demons with magic, which is exactly what she asked for.
After seeing the other party's confirmation, Li Yan stopped talking and opened his mouth to blow gently in front of him.
After a breeze blew by, the bloody scroll disintegrated in front of him, turning into dots of blood-red stars and disappearing into nothingness.
Immediately, there seemed to be a faint force in the air, and it fell on Li Yan in an instant. Li Yan was just stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal.
In the future, as long as he doesn't tell what he saw here today, this inner demon oath will not affect him at all.
As the bloody scroll disappeared, those few spiritual consciousnesses also disappeared in an instant.
Li Yan was also satisfied with this. The other party followed the rules and did not take advantage of the large number of people to spy on him.
When Donglin Tingyue saw this, he immediately took out a jade slip and put it on his forehead. After a short time, he took the jade slip away.
At the same time, a rune exuding an ancient aura appeared between her eyebrows, which was directly integrated into the jade slip, and then handed to Li Yan.
Li Yan stretched out his hand to take it with a smile. The jade slip was quite warm in his hand, and there was a woman's orchid-like body fragrance on it. Then he sank his consciousness into it in front of Donglin Tingyue.
When Donglin Tingyue saw this, her long black eyelashes trembled slightly, and a faint blush rose on the jade neck under the mask.
After a short time, Li Yan raised his head.
"Fairy Tingyue, when will we go over to see your brother?"
As he spoke, the light in Li Yan's hand flashed, the jade slip disappeared, and he chuckled.
…………
The Donglin family is very large, so Li Yan has been staying in his courtyard these days and has not gone out.
Under the night, he followed the back of Tingting, who was dancing in the moonlight in the east forest, as he walked around the pavilions and pavilions. After walking for most of the incense sticks, he saw a dark forest again in his sight.
Along the way, Li Yan found that no monk appeared wherever they passed, and the places they went were becoming more and more remote, and there were fewer and fewer houses around them.
Li Yan could even feel the sea breeze blowing continuously from the forest, which naturally gave rise to a feeling of emptiness in people's hearts.
Finally, they arrived outside the woods. Although Li Yan's face remained calm, he felt a little strange in his heart.
"His cousin should be considered not too old among the monks. His personality is a bit weird, and he lives in such a remote place.
There are no other houses or courtyards near here. If I guess correctly, they are already far away from their clansmen..."
While he was thinking, Donglin Tingyue entered the woods without stopping. Li Yan released his consciousness and followed him in with a calm expression.
At night, the woods become even more gloomy and deep. The sea breeze blowing from a distance is moist and mixed with the cold and salty smell of the night.
In the forest, there is a stone path that can accommodate three people side by side. It winds and stretches at the foot of the tree roots, leading to the unknown darkness...
