“His surname is Xiao, and his name is Zhufeng …”

At this moment, the small courtyard suddenly became even quieter. Only the breeze blew past, and the bamboo leaves rustled.

Xiao Zhufeng …

Even after so many years, these three words could still stir up ripples in Shui Hanyan’s heart. Her expression also changed slightly, as if a stone had fallen from an ancient well, causing ripples to appear on her face.

Looking at the ripples in Shui Hanyan’s heart, Xiao Chen remained motionless. After a long time, he said, “Senior, I believe you already know who I am.”

Actually, when he entered, Shui Hanyan had already guessed that there were no two people in this world that were so similar. Thus, after a quick glance, she quickly turned around and pretended to continue to tidy up the medicinal herbs on the stone platform. In fact, her heart was already trembling greatly.

Seeing that she was still silent, Xiao Chen continued, “Senior has lived in seclusion here for more than 40 years and has not asked about the world. It is no longer against our old friend’s agreement. Now, I am here to ask Senior to leave because …”

“Forget it, you don’t have to say anything else.”

Shui Hanyan suddenly interrupted him and continued. At this moment, she raised her head and looked at him faintly. Then, she turned around and walked into the room. “You go, I won’t leave this place.”

“Why?”

This time, Xiao Chen’s face finally revealed a hint of confusion. He looked at her figure as she walked into the small room and said, “Senior is hiding here precisely because I don’t want to get involved in the world war, but I said it below. Very soon, that power will come here. Could it be Senior …”

“If they come, I’ll be the enemy. If they can’t, they’ll kill me.” Shui Hanyan’s firm voice came from the room. Her tone was as if she had made up her mind and no one could persuade her.

Outside the house, Xiao Chen stood under the bamboo, motionless. A wind blew past, and several bamboo leaves fell on his shoulders.

After a long time, he said, “Since that’s the case, it’s not easy for I am to force Senior. I’ll go outside. Senior, think about it for the next two days.” After saying that, he turned around and went outside the courtyard.

Inside the cabin, Shui Hanyan looked at his back, which was gradually disappearing, as well as the white hair that was flying in the wind. At this moment, she remembered the scene from many years ago.

“Shui Hanyan, you are not suitable for this world. You and Bu Yundian both have the same ability, but this ability is to save people, not kill people. Therefore, you are not suitable for this world.”

“This valley was accidentally discovered by me when I passed by Yun Yaochuan. I observed that this valley is rich in spiritual energy and has not declined for a thousand years. It is extremely suitable for cultivation. As for you here, I think they won’t be able to find you …”

…

After an incense stick of time, Xiao Chen went to the other side of the valley. Although he didn’t know why Shui Hanyan insisted on not leaving this place, he couldn’t leave now. He had a feeling that since he could find this place, the people from the mysterious faction would also be found soon.

After a day passed like this, there was still no sound coming from the Water Cloud Valley. Xiao Chen was sitting under an ancient pine on a green cliff, and the cool breeze that slowly blew over also carried a sense of tranquility.

Probably, between the mountains and rivers, it would calm one’s heart and stop thinking about the disputes outside. Just like back then, when he went down the mountain to travel, he felt affection for the mountains and rivers. Every time he arrived at a beautiful place, he would sit down and play the zither. It was also that time that he met Wei Yang.

Today, I wonder what the situation is like on the Wei Yang side. Has he found the senior living in seclusion on the “Green Pine Cliff”?

After noon, Xiao Chen was cultivating under Panasonic. He felt the essence of heaven and earth condensed here. Suddenly, a strange movement came from the valley entrance. He immediately opened his eyes and followed the sound. A profound light suddenly appeared in the valley entrance. Probably someone was breaking through the restriction formation at the valley entrance.

When he entered yesterday, the restriction array was already much weaker. Today, it was even more easily broken. The strange movements became more and more intense. Clearly, the restriction array was about to be broken.

At this moment, an old man’s voice sounded from the valley entrance, “Is the owner of this valley here?”

Even though Xiao Chen had expected someone to find this place, he didn’t expect it to arrive so quickly. Yesterday, he had just arrived, and only a day had passed when someone came looking for him.

Without any hesitation, he immediately flew towards the valley entrance. At that time, there were five people at the valley entrance. The leader of them was an old man dressed in Zi Yi and with white beard. Behind him was a woman in red who looked thirty years old, a young man, and two middle-aged men.

Although none of the five of them possessed a quasi-sage aura, there was something extraordinary about being able to break through the restrictions in the valley.

Seeing Xiao Chen suddenly descend from the sky, the five of them immediately became alert. The old man in the lead asked doubtfully, “Who are you?”

“I am the owner of this valley. What do you mean by breaking the restrictions in my valley?” Xiao Chen looked at the five people in front of him and said indifferently.

“Are you Yun Chuan’s Medical Immortal?”

The young man behind him immediately revealed a puzzled expression. No matter how he looked at it, the white-haired man in front of him did not look like the rumoured Yun Chuan Medical Immortal.

“It’s Xiao Chen,” said I am.

“Something’s wrong …”

The young man immediately became vigilant and said, “It is rumored that Yun Chuan, a medical immortal with an immortal face, is like a sixteen-year-old girl. How could he be a man …”

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Who said that a man can’t be a medical immortal?”

“How could I say that I am a Healing Immortal? Who exactly are you!”

The red-clothed woman beside the young man shouted. As soon as she finished speaking, a blood-red finger force came. With a “whoosh” sound, Xiao Chen sideways avoided the finger force. At the same time, he flicked his palm and a powerful force surged out. Instantly, the five of them retreated. All of them felt suffocated. This person’s strength was so strong!

“Be careful!”

The five of them immediately dispersed and attacked Xiao Chen from different directions. Although their cultivation levels weren’t as high as those of Quasi-Saints, they seemed to have cultivated a special cultivation technique that could allow the five of them to stack their strengths together.

In this way, regardless of which one Xiao Chen was facing, it would be equivalent to resisting the combined strength of five people at the same time.

A moment later, The nearby vegetation had withered and the mountains and rocks had cracked apart. Xiao Chen gradually figured out the offensive tactics of the few of them. Without hesitation, he took advantage of the fact that the few of them were attacking again, and the old man’s attack was directed at the woman. The woman’s attack was directed at the young man, and the attacks of the two middle-aged men were actually directed at each other.

“Boom!” A loud explosion rang out, causing the surrounding area to tremble violently. However, the five of them were all sent flying by their attacks.

At this moment, the faces of the five people were filled with horror. Not only was the white-haired man in front of them stronger than them, he also knew such a strange technique. Thinking of this, their hearts felt a chill …

“Let’s go!”

The white-haired old man knew that he was no match for the person in front of him, so he did not hesitate. After giving the order, the five of them immediately turned into smoke and fled the valley. Soon, they disappeared.

Xiao Chen looked in the direction where the few of them had escaped and did not pursue them. He had to bring Shui Hanyan out of here as soon as possible. The location of the valley had been completely exposed. Those five people must have come to investigate first, and the more formidable ones were still behind them. It was not appropriate to delay them any longer.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen did not hesitate anymore. He immediately went back to the small courtyard. When he reached the courtyard, he saw Shui Hanyan walk out of the house. She was dressed in an immortal-like aqua dress. She looked at him with her eyebrows furrowed, “Who was that outside just now?”

“I don’t know.”

Xiao Chen looked at her and said, “Perhaps it was the people sent by that faction to investigate. They just escaped. I believe that the people from that faction will arrive very soon. If Senior doesn’t leave, I am will make a move.” As he spoke, he walked closer to her.

“You dare.”

Shui Hanyan’s eyebrows narrowed. Seeing that he was really approaching her, she waved her hand and several silver needles with cold light appeared between her fingers.

Xiao Chen looked at the silver needle in her hand and said, “Senior, is this needle used to save people or kill people?”

Shui Hanyan stared at him and said coldly, “This needle of mine can be used to save people or kill people. Do you want to try it?”

“Just give it a try.”

Xiao Chen’s body moved, and he immediately unleashed the Ling Xian Steps and bullied her. When Shui Hanyan saw him coming up, she flicked her jade hand and several silver needles were fired.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

It was as if the wind had passed through Wuhen. This silver needle was indeed extremely powerful. Ordinary people would find it extremely difficult to receive it. Xiao Chen’s figure changed like a ghost and god. It was faster than Wuhen and this silver needle.

A moment later, the gale in the courtyard suddenly stopped. Only a dozen bamboo leaves slowly fell from the sky. Xiao Chen stopped. At this moment, more than a dozen silver needles shining with cold light appeared in his hand. He had caught all the dozen silver needles that Shui Hanyan had just sent him.

At this moment, looking at the dozen silver needles in his hand, Shui Hanyan’s eyebrows couldn’t help but frown even deeper.

“Senior, you have the heart to save the world, so how can you kill someone with a needle to save someone? If I am not an old friend, but someone who wants to kill you, will you … spare this needle?”

Xiao Chen looked at her and said slowly. As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his arm back and said, “Whoosh whoosh whoosh!” A dozen silver needles were instantly fired, nailing the dozen bamboo leaves behind him onto the bamboo.

“Follow me.”

Then, Xiao Chen stepped forward and extended his hand towards her. He looked into her eyes and did not move at all.

Shui Hanyan looked at the hand he was reaching out to her, the white hair fluttering in the wind behind his shoulders, and his eyes that were as clear as a lake. At this moment, she seemed to recall the past many years ago, as if it was the same voice and gaze.

However, just at this moment, a voice that was neither cold nor hot and slightly yin came from outside the valley. “Healing Sage Shui Hanyan, you are indeed … living in seclusion here.”

That voice came all of a sudden, followed by two extremely powerful auras. Obviously, the people who came this time were two Quasi-Sage experts.

Feeling the powerful aura seeping in from outside, Shui Hanyan’s brows furrowed even deeper. However, Xiao Chen’s face had not changed from beginning to end. He turned around and looked out of the valley. He said indifferently, “Forget it … Save me, you go. Kill me, I’ll do it.”
