#1053 - Chapter 1053 The original agreement
After Tian Qingwu and his group bid farewell to Ye Ling at Zixia Pavilion, they prepared to return to Tianxuan Sect.
However, Wen Hou and his party did not leave immediately, but made an excuse to stay in Lianyun Continent for another night before preparing to depart tomorrow.
Back in his room, Wen Hou summoned Wen Yi and Wen Lin, informing them of the evening's plan.
That's right, Wen Hou intended to sneak into Xiaoyao Peak tonight to retrieve the Yin Condensation Grass and Xuanhan Soul from Ye Kong.
Inside the Zhudan Sect, Yao Zidan was teaching his disciples how to more quickly circulate their spiritual energy for better alchemy.
"Swoosh!"
Ye Kong flew to the Zhudan Sect's mountain gate on his sword. As soon as he arrived, he smelled a fragrant herbal scent, taking a deep breath, he also detected some pungent odors.
"Master, someone is requesting an audience at the mountain gate," a disciple in green robes ran over to report to Yao Zidan.
"Who is it?" Yao Zidan asked calmly.
"The Peak Master of Xiaoyao Peak," the green-robed disciple replied.
Hearing that the visitor was Ye Kong, Yao Zidan couldn't remain calm. He hadn't expected that the trial in the煞beast forbidden area would end in the morning, and Ye Kong would come looking for him in the afternoon.
Yao Zidan personally got up to meet Ye Kong at the mountain gate. On the way, Yao Zidan kept guessing whether Ye Kong had brought back the five spiritual herb ingredients.
Arriving at the mountain gate, he saw Ye Kong standing with his hands behind his back, facing away from the gate. Even from his back, Yao Zidan couldn't discern anything.
"Hahahaha, Peak Master Ye, congratulations on your triumphant return!" Yao Zidan changed his demeanor, smiling as he looked at Ye Kong.
Ye Kong turned around, his aura still cold, his expression unchanged.
Ye Kong always spoke directly, and in the face of Yao Zidan's pleasantries, he said nothing.
With a wave of his sleeve, the five spiritual herb ingredients appeared from his storage ring, no more, no less, exactly five, and each one was complete.
Seeing the five spiritual herb ingredients floating up and down in front of him, Yao Zidan was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Yao Zidan had never imagined that he had sent so many disciples to participate in the trial of the 煞beast forbidden area, but none of them had managed to gather these five spiritual herb ingredients successfully. He hadn't expected that Ye Kong would succeed immediately.
"Hahahaha, what are you talking about? Of course, I remember. Peak Master Ye has done me such a great favor. My Zhudan Sect is always open to Peak Master Ye," Yao Zidan said with a flattering smile.
Ye Kong didn't speak, and Yao Zidan, fearing that Ye Kong would think he was breaking his promise, immediately made a gesture of invitation.
"Rather than choosing another day, Peak Master Ye should stay in my Zhudan Sect for one night tonight. My Zhudan Sect will definitely treat you with utmost sincerity," Yao Zidan said humbly, afraid that Ye Kong would refuse.
"Swish!" With a wave of his hand, the five spiritual herb ingredients reappeared, and Yao Zidan immediately spread his arms wide to catch them securely.
"I appreciate Sect Master Yao's kindness, but I have other matters to attend to today. I will bring my disciples to visit you another day," Ye Kong said, then turned into a stream of light and flew back to Xiaoyao Peak.
Seeing that the five spiritual herb ingredients were in his hands, Yao Zidan's face lit up with a brilliant smile.
"Peak Master Ye, farewell!" Yao Zidan watched Ye Kong gradually disappear from sight.
He hadn't expected Ye Kong to be so capable. If he could build a good relationship with him, then in the future...
Yao Zidan thought as he walked towards the Zhudan Sect's alchemy room.
When Ye Kong returned to Xiaoyao Peak, the sky had already become somewhat dim.
"Master is back," Bai Wuchen saw a stream of light streaking across the sky and knew that it was Ye Kong returning.
The disciples had already taken out their spoils of war: tiger beasts, snake beasts...
The disciples asked Xing Yueyao to stay and eat barbecue before leaving, and Xing Yueyao didn't refuse, so she stayed at Xiaoyao Peak for the night.
Ye Kong arrived at the martial arts field and saw the disciples working together, some carrying firewood, some setting up the stove, some cutting meat, their techniques looked unskilled, but they were well-organized.
Ye Kong turned his head and noticed Xing Chenlan learning the power-gathering chop from her senior brothers.
It seemed she had recovered.
Perhaps sensing Ye Kong's gaze, Xing Chenlan looked up, her beautiful blue eyes meeting Ye Kong's gaze. Ye Kong gave her a gentle smile, then shifted his gaze again.
"Master!" Feng Qingqing ran over, her face adorned with six large black stripes, making her look somewhat cute.
"Master, we're all ready, when do we start roasting?" Feng Qingqing's voice was soft, as if she was asking coquettishly.
Ye Kong looked at Feng Qingqing's furry fox ears and reached out to touch them.
"This master will start roasting now," Ye Kong said, walking towards the firewood pile.
Seeing Ye Kong's posture, everyone kept their distance and sat down in a large circle.
Ye Kong slowly walked to the firewood pile, exuding an aura of power and grandeur.
Ye Kong circulated the spiritual energy within his body, emitting a ball of boiling spiritual fire from his hand. With a push of his palm, a surge of majestic aura poured out from Ye Kong's palm, and the firewood pile immediately burst into flames, reaching a height of several feet. The raging flames sometimes resembled giant dragons, sometimes fierce tigers, as if they were galloping and roaring.
"Wow!" The disciples clapped their hands in applause.
Ye Kong tapped the ground with one foot, spun his body, and the pieces of meat flew towards Ye Kong as if guided.
With a smooth and flowing set of movements, Ye Kong perfectly roasted the fresh meat back and forth.
"Sizzle~ Sizzle~"
The moment the skin on the meat split open, the barbecue sizzled, and a drop of hot oil slowly slid down the full grain of the meat, which was intoxicating. The spiritual fire contained by Ye Kong could easily adjust the heat, and soon all the barbecue was roasted.
Ye Kong's final movement was a skillful flick of the hand, and all the barbecue flew directly to the table as if it had legs.
"Oh oh oh oh oh!"
"Master! Master! Master!"
The disciples all let out excited screams, couldn't help but shout Ye Kong's name, Ye Kong curled the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, but his eyes were still very calm.
Ye Ling came to Xiaoyao Peak alone. She had a strand of black hair hanging on both sides of her ears, and also draped behind her head. Only the black hair on the top of her head was tied up diagonally, like a crescent moon, which was very special, and different from her usual headdress. Ye Ling was wearing an openwork light purple silk mandarin duck brocade crescent moon dress, which was like two different people compared to her usual solemn black robe.
When Ye Ling appeared in the martial arts field, the disciples were all concentrating on gnawing on barbecue legs, and didn't really notice Ye Ling's arrival.
But Xing Yueyao turned her head and saw Ye Ling.
