In the evening, the setting sun reflected the light, dyeing the vast jungle red. Jiang Yun drove the spiritual weapon Xiao Hei to fly to Qianchi Pond at the pole of Lingyue.
This is Jiang Yun's first trip to Thousand Feet Pond in five years. Before, he had not practiced spiritual power or learned the art of controlling spirits, so it was difficult to move forward. His younger sister Xiaoyan has always come to Butterfly Pavilion to meet him in the middle of every month. Now Jiang Yun
I have to go in person to see my sister Xiaoyan.
The joy of meeting each other is naturally beyond words. My sister Xiaoyan has been looking very haggard these days. Like Master Jieshu, she sheds tears every day for Jiang Yun's departure.
Jiang Yun unexpectedly returned unscathed, which made Xiaoyan very happy. The gloom that had accumulated in her heart for the past few days was swept away.
As night falls, the water of Thousand Feet Pond sparkles under the moonlight, shining on Jiang Yun and Jiang Xiaoyan, like stars twinkling in the sky.
Jiang Yun told Jiang Xiaoyan everything about the palace master Wu Lingzi. Jiang Xiaoyan was just as surprised as Jieshu. Finally, Jiang Yun finally proposed to take Jiang Xiaoyan to Shuyuan Valley with him.
Jiang Xiaoyan gritted her teeth and thought for a long time. Finally she nodded towards Jiang Yun and said decisively: "Brother, Xiaoyan is determined to follow you for the rest of her life. Wherever you go, I will follow."
Jiang Yun knew that although his sister Xiaoyan seemed calm on the surface, she had gone through difficult struggles and decisions in her heart.
"Sister, my brother promises you that he will never let you suffer any harm in this life! Jiang Yun gently took Jiang Xiaoyan into his arms.
Jiang Xiaoyan put her jade head in Jiang Yun's arms, feeling the beating of Jiang Yun's heart and the breath of blood. A happy smile appeared on her face.
"However, you have to allow me to say goodbye to Master tonight."
"That's natural. Holy Lord Shui Minyin has cared for you very much over the past five years and taught you spiritual magic carefully. She must be very sad when you leave now. If there is a chance in the future, we will definitely come back to visit her."
When Jiang Xiaoyan heard this, she lowered her head slightly, feeling sad that she was leaving her master who had been so kind to her for five years.

The Thousand Feet Pond is a thousand feet deep, and there is a cave at the bottom of the Thousand Feet Pond. There is a secret room hidden in the deep water. It is square and not very large. The secret room has a circular arch, which is open.
Although it is open, the deep water ripples and flows outside the door, but does not flow in, which is extremely strange. The secret room is full of spiritual energy. These spiritual energy are in an invisible state and are difficult to see with the naked eye. However, monks with profound spiritual power can clearly sense the presence outside the secret room.
In the pool of water, traces of spiritual energy are continuously being sucked into the secret room.
The spiritual energy gathers from the water of Thousand Feet Pond and is taken from nature, which is inexhaustible.
The water in the secret room is full of spiritual energy. Shui Minyin is in retreat here to practice water-based magic.
After sitting cross-legged and practicing for about several hours, Shui Minyin slowly pressed her palms from her chest. A circle of light blue water ripples appeared where she sat cross-legged. She opened her eyes and stood up slowly.
Get up.
Shui Minyin walked to the door of the secret room and called out softly: "Water Spirit Master". At this time, a wave surged from the depths of the pool, and a snow-white water monster swam over like a cloak cutting through the waves.
This water monster looks very strange. It is quite large, about the size of an ancient giant elephant. Its whole body is smooth and shining with snow-white light. There are a pair of scaly fins on its left and right bodies respectively, which flap up and down. Its head is oblate, like a snake's head.
It also looks like a fish head with a long tail trailing behind it, swinging back and forth.
The water monster quickly swam to the door of the secret room and stayed in front of Shui Minyin very docilely. Shui Minyin stretched out his palm, patted the water monster's head, and said softly: "Shui Lingzun, my practice ends here.
We go up first, so stay by the door of this secret room and don't leave for fun."
The water monster was extremely spiritual. He nodded repeatedly after listening to Shui Minyin's words, and stretched out his long tongue to lick Shui Minyin's palm.
Shui Minyin smiled slightly, raised her body and flew up. The pool of water parted to the left and right above her head, and there was no trace of water on Shui Minyin's clothes.
A huge whirlpool was set off on the surface of Thousand Feet Pond. The whirlpool rotated rapidly, and then the water flowed apart in all directions. A huge gap appeared, and Shui Minyin's figure quickly flew out of the gap.
Shui Minyin floated down to the bank of Qianchi Pond. At this time, she saw a beautiful figure standing not far away, as if she had been waiting here for a long time.
Shui Minyin had already seen the figure clearly and asked softly: "Xiaoyan, what are you doing standing here?"
That figure was Jiang Xiaoyan. When she saw her master flying out of the pool, she trembled and couldn't help but feel extremely nervous. She almost didn't dare to raise her head and meet her master's soft eyes. She knew that what she said next would definitely anger her.
The master was extremely angry.
But she had no choice, she had to speak out.
"I...I...Master..."
Shui Minyin seemed a little unhappy, and his tone became a little stern, saying, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hesitate. You've never been like this."
"I...Master." Jiang Xiaoyan clenched her pink fists tightly, feeling that her palms were wet and beads of sweat were forming on her forehead. Finally, she mustered up the courage to speak out.
"Master, I am leaving Lingyue Palace..."
Shui Minyin was startled when he heard this, with a look of disbelief on his face, "What did you say?"
"Sister is leaving here, and I want to follow her. I'm afraid I can't be your apprentice from now on..." Jiang Xiaoyan was already crying, unable to hold back, tears streaming down her face. With a "plop", she
Kneeling in front of Shui Minyin, she buried her head, feeling very sad and remorseful.
"Why?" Shui Minyin's face turned very cold, like ice on the river bed in winter.
Jiang Xiaoyan cried and told her master that her "sister" was originally from Shuyuan Valley's bloodline and that the master of Shuyuan Valley had found her.
The more Shui Minyin listened, the colder her face became. Until Jiang Xiaoyan finished speaking, she remained silent. She clenched her teeth tightly and remained motionless, giving Jiang Xiaoyan a strong sense of majesty.
For a long time, Shui Minyin said word by word: "What if I don't agree?"
Jiang Xiaoyan felt as if she had been hit by a boulder. She raised her teary eyes and said, "If master doesn't agree, the unscrupulous disciple will have to leave. Because my sister is my only relative in this life, I must follow her."
"Hmph! Shui Minyin threw down her gauze sleeves, turned around, and looked at the bright moon in the sky, "You just said that Jiang Xiaoyun is of Shuyuan Valley bloodline, not your biological sister. Why do you want to follow her?"
"Although I am not my biological child, it is better than my own. My sister raised me since I was a child. She is the most dear and beloved person in my life."
"What about me? Who do you think your master is? How have I treated you in the past five years? I treat you as my own child, teach you spiritual methods, teach you spells, and give you the best things.
You, I left you the best opportunity. But now, you have failed me so..."
"Master..." Jiang Xiaoyan cried, her heart bleeding, "Master's kindness is as great as a mountain, and my disciple will remember it in his heart for the rest of his life!"
Shui Min Yin Leng let out a "hum", turned around suddenly, and said: "These are all empty words. As a teacher, I only hope that you can stay here."
Jiang Xiaoyan's heart was as sharp as a knife. She looked into Shui Minyin's eyes and shook her head resolutely.
When Shui Minyin saw this, he felt great grief, hardened his heart, and asked: "Then when will you leave?"
Jiang Xiaoyan did not dare to raise her head and whispered: "It will probably be tomorrow."
"Okay!" A trace of pain flashed in Shui Minyin's eyes, and he suddenly raised his arms and said loudly: "Then I will imprison you in this thousand-foot pond tonight, and Jiang Xiaoyun will search the entire Lingyue Polar Region tomorrow to find you.
you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shui Minyin quickly probed with his palm. Where his palm was pointing, a column of crystal water condensed and flew down on Jiang Xiaoyan with lightning speed, and then tightly wrapped around Jiang Xiaoyan's whole body.
"Master, no!" Jiang Xiaoyan exclaimed.
However, Shui Minyin turned a deaf ear and continued to pour out super powerful spiritual power from his palms. His water control skills were extremely miraculous. The water column that entangled Jiang Xiaoyan seemed to be strongly pulled, dragging Jiang Xiaoyan to fly out into the air and fall into the Thousand Feet Pond.
Huge waves were thrown up on the surface of Thousand Feet Pond, and the waves surged, covering up Jiang Xiaoyan's figure.
The water column dragged Jiang Xiaoyan straight to the bottom of the Thousand-foot Pond, and then dragged her into the secret room.
At this time, Master's voice seemed to come from the distant sky.
"Shui Lingzun, cast a spell to block the round door of the secret room, and you can't let this unscrupulous disciple out. Hum, Jiang Xiaoyan, just reflect on it here!" The voice sounded from near to far away, and it seemed that Shui Minyin had drifted away.
The huge water monster swam at the door of the secret room, its long tail suddenly stirred in the water, and an invisible water flow gathered together, condensing into a pale water shield blocking the door of the secret room.
"Master, Master, don't do this, please let me out..." Jiang Xiaoyan burst into tears. But Shui Minyin had already gone away, and her cries could not be heard at all.
Jiang Xiaoyan struggled with all her strength, perhaps because Shui Minyin was far away and her spiritual power gradually lost strength. The water column tied to Jiang Xiaoyan's body gradually dissipated, and Jiang Xiaoyan quickly stood up and rushed towards the round door of the secret room.
There was a loud "bang", and the whole body of the water shield trembled, and the color of the water fluctuated continuously, but it was extremely strong. Jiang Xiaoyan's forehead was hematomatous, and his whole body was bounced back.
Jiang Xiaoyan tried a few more times, but couldn't break through the water shield. She could only slap the water shield with both hands. Every time she slapped it, blue circles of light swayed layer by layer on the water shield.
"Lord Shui Ling, please let me out, please!"
Shui Lingzun was suspended in the water outside the secret room. He just glanced at her with his eyes, then looked back. He closed his eyes and seemed to be falling asleep, paying no attention to Jiang Xiaoyan's cries.

When Jiang Yun drove Xiao Hei back to Butterfly Pavilion, it was already midnight, the night was deep, the dew was falling, and it was chilly.
Jieshu didn't sleep. She lit a dim oil lamp and sat alone in the yard waiting for Jiang Yun's return. However, Jiang Yun didn't come back for a long time. Jieshu became tired from waiting and couldn't help but bend over the stone table to sleep.
It’s on.
Jiang Yun floated into the courtyard of Butterfly Pavilion and saw Jieshu leaning over the stone table and sleeping soundly. The dim oil lamp flickered, reflecting on Jieshu's face. Dewdrops suddenly fell quietly.
It fell on Jieshu's face, feeling icy and cool.
That cold feeling seemed to penetrate into Jieshu's heart. Jieshu had a dream. She was placed in a cold lake. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not struggle. The lake water covered her waist and rose little by little.
, moving closer to her shoulder.
Jiang Yun didn't know when he was sitting on a small boat, drifting farther and farther away until he disappeared into the mist on the lake.
"Jiang Yun..." Jieshu tried her best to open her mouth and shout, but her voice was very low. She could only watch Jiang Yun's figure disappear in front of her eyes...
That kind of helplessness, that kind of sadness, it's hard to describe.
There was a look of pain on Jieshu's face, and she kept mumbling in her sleep. Listening carefully, it sounded like she was calling Jiang Yun's name.
Jiang Yun walked over softly, feeling extremely distressed. He took off his long gown and covered Jieshu's body.
Unexpectedly, there was not much movement, but Jieshu woke up with a start. Or maybe Jieshu struggled to wake up from her dream. The sweat and dewdrops on her chubby round face melted together and became wet.
She felt the warmth of Jiang Yun's clothes, and her heart felt as if she had eaten honey. She raised her head, blinked her beautiful big eyes, and asked, "Are you back?"
Jiang Yun nodded.
"Have you met your sister?"
Jiang Yun nodded again.
Jieshu's eyes were downcast, "Then she is willing to go with you?"
Jiang Yun said "hmm".
Jieshu smiled bitterly and whispered: "Xiaoyan really loves you deeply." The voice was very small, but Jiang Yun heard it clearly. He knew what Jieshu was thinking and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Jiang Yun couldn't say anything else and glanced at the master's room. It was still dark. He was very surprised and asked Jieshu, "Master hasn't come back yet?"
Jieshu nodded, looking very confused, and replied: "Yeah, I don't know what's going on. It's so late and Master hasn't come back yet. You see, I fell asleep and overslept."
At this time, a strange wind blew from nowhere. The wind came unexpectedly, and by chance, it blew out the dim light of the oil lamp in an instant.
The courtyard suddenly fell into endless darkness, and everything seemed to become deathly silent. For some reason, Jiang Yun's heart felt as if he had been hit hard by a stone flying from thousands of miles away, and an unknown premonition came over him.
heart.
"Jieshu, let's go to the alchemy cave to find the master!"
"Yes." Jieshu also stood up, feeling suddenly uneasy in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
