Although Xue Wuhen said decisively, Ye Chen just nodded and said ashamedly: "It's hard for you!"
In his opinion, what Xue Wuhen meant when he said he would do his best to help him was that he would not stop him or become a burden to him.
As for pursuing the path to immortality, Xue Wuhen's cultivation level is only at the ninth level of the Saint level. How can he help himself?
"You don't have to say sorry!"
Xue Wuhen shook his head, "As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. Since I have chosen you, no matter what you do, I will definitely accompany you life and death!"
"I know you don't want me to leave, but I have to take this road!"
Before leaving the Abyss of Sin, he had promised to rest in peace. No matter what, he would step into the fairyland in less than three years and save the sinful people in the Abyss of Sin from the sea of suffering.
Now, he is only one step away from the fairyland, and he also has some secrets that other peak emperors don't know. Even if Xue Wuhen doesn't want to, he won't give up because of this reason.
"Then when are you going to leave?"
Xue Wuhen asked again.
"Maybe just these two days!"
Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"That's fine!"
Xue Wuhen did not refute, but just asked: "Then where are you going after you leave here?"
"I'm going to return to the imperial capital of the Yong'an Empire and ask that old man Nangong Dou why he left without saying goodbye!"
"Nangong Dou?"
Xue Wuhen was startled, and his expression became a little strange.
Ye Chen didn't think too much and said to himself: "Nangong Dou is the last two generations of emperors of the Yong'an Empire and the guardian of the Nangong Royal Family!"
"When I returned to Haoshan this time, he originally came with me!"
"According to him, deep in the wild forest leading from Haoshan Mountain to the Southern Territory, there is an old witch named Jing Lingwei who has lived in seclusion for more than four hundred years. Her cultivation level has long been stepped into..."
Before he finished speaking, Xue Wuhen waved his hand impatiently, "This Jing Lingwei, you have already told me!"
"Uh...it seems so!"
Ye Chen shook his head in embarrassment and said: "Anyway, Haoshan is not as simple as everyone thinks. Before I return to the imperial capital, I will go deep into the wild forest to take a look. If I still don't find the old witch..."
"Can you stop speaking so harshly?"
Xue Wuhen was a little dissatisfied, "According to your statement, how could you say that this Jing Lingwei is a senior who is more than 400 years older than you? And you are still asking for help from him, so why do you keep calling him an 'old witch'?
?”
"Well, since you are so disgusted, I think calling him 'Jing-senpai' will do the trick!"
Ye Chen shrugged helplessly.
Soon after, the sun set.
When night fell, the two of them no longer stayed at the top of the mountain. Ye Chen grabbed Xue Wuhen's slender waist and slowly flew up into the sky, flying back to the Shadowless Palace at the Phantom Gate headquarters.
Even though it was completely dark, Ye Chen still called Ye Yanran, Si Wenkang, Fang Ruotong, and Wang Ke.
"Brother, it's already dark, what else did you ask us to do?"
Ye Yanran's face was full of surprise.
Si Wenkang said again: "Master, don't you usually go to bed very early?
Why did you specially call us here tonight?"
"Does the master have anything important to say?"
Fang Ruotong said again.
"No!"
Ye Chen shook his head and pointed to the dishes on the table, "I made this by myself, you guys try it to see if it tastes good!"
"What?
Master, did you cook it yourself?"
"Master, don't you usually only cook for your wife?
Why are you cooking for us disciples tonight?"
"Master, what's wrong with you today...ah no, is there something wrong with you?"
Si Wenkang, Fang Ruotong, and Wang Ke looked at each other with surprise on their faces.
Even Ye Yanran seemed to notice something was wrong, and said in confusion: "Brother, tell the truth, what is your conspiracy?"
"I just asked you to order a meal that I cooked by myself. Why are there so many?"
Ye Chen rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "If you don't like it, just go to bed quickly. Without you, I wouldn't be able to eat it?"
As he said that, he picked up his chopsticks and ate.
Ye Yanran and others stared at each other, feeling a little incredible.
"Yanran, it's rare for your brother to cook in person, so don't ask so many questions and just eat quickly!"
Xue Wuhen persuaded from the side: "There are also Wenkang, Ruotong, and Wang Ke, you should eat quickly, don't waste your master's troubles!"
"This...is, Master Wife!"
Si Wenkang and the others looked at each other, said nothing more, and sat down carefully.
However, this meal was so frightening for several people.
Not to mention that Ye Chen cooked the food himself, which made them feel extremely abnormal. While Ye Chen was eating, he looked at each of them from time to time with extremely weird eyes.
No matter how confused they were, they didn't dare to ask even if Ye Chen didn't tell him.
A quarter of an hour later, a table of home-cooked dishes had been eaten by several people.
"Okay, let's go back to sleep!"
Ye Chen waved his hand as if to ward off flies, "Remember to practice hard in the future and stay calm when encountering difficulties. If you are unable to defeat the enemy, don't show off your courage and know how to outwit..."
"Master, why do you sound like you are about to say goodbye to me?"
Before Ye Chen finished speaking, he was picked up by Si Wenkang.
Ye Yanran finally realized, "Brother, are you leaving again?"
Ye Chen frowned slightly.
He specially cooked tonight, fried these home-cooked dishes, and invited a few people to eat, just to reunite one last time.
Because tonight, he is indeed ready to leave!
However, he didn't intend to say it.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yanran and others noticed it.
"Yes, I'm ready to leave!"
He no longer denied it and said directly: "So after I leave, everything here will have to be done by yourself. No matter what situation you encounter or what kind of enemy you encounter, you will need to rely on your own wisdom and strength to solve it."
"Brother, how long will it take for you to come back after you leave this time?"
Ye Yanran's eyes were full of reluctance.
Si Wenkang and others also looked disappointed.
"I don't know either!"
Ye Chen shook his head, "However, I can promise you now that as long as I complete my goal, I will definitely come back, but I can't tell how long it will take specifically!"
"You won't stay there for several years like last time, right?"
Ye Yanran was about to cry.
It's been a few years since we last saw each other.
It's been more than a month since we finally reunited, and now we've decided to leave again.
And how can she accept this departure if there is still no news for several years like last time?
"Don't worry, as long as the goal is accomplished, I will come back as soon as possible!"
Although he promised so confidently, Ye Chen never said the specific time.
Because even he himself doesn't know how long this departure will last.
"But……"
Ye Yanran wanted to say something else, but was instantly interrupted by Ye Chen, "Okay, go back to sleep quickly, your brother and I are not going to die, why are you crying?"
"I didn't cry. Who said I cried? I just got sand in my eyes!"
Ye Yanran pretended to be strong.
Next, everyone chatted for a long time.
They said they were just chatting, but because everyone knew that Ye Chen was leaving, everyone felt a little heavy. They just didn't want the atmosphere to be too depressing, so everyone tried their best to smile.
It wasn't until late at night, when Ye Chen started to drive people away, that Ye Yanran and the others reluctantly left.
