#373 - Chapter 373 Ye Kong, he ran away
The next day.
Ye Kong stretched lazily and walked out of the Xiaoyao Pavilion, returning to the edge of the Bitter Sea to fish.
After Ye Hongxue and Ye Qingjun woke up, they washed up and went to Peach Mountain to play.
Now that Senior Sister and the others are back, there's no worry about having nothing to do.
Early in the morning, the crisp, bell-like laughter of Ye Hongxue and Ye Qingjun echoed on Xiaoyao Peak.
Afterward, the two of them rode Erha, wandering all over the mountains and fields.
They even left Xiaoyao Peak, wandering to places like Xinghe Hall, Wanhua Peak, and Zhenwu Peak.
No one dared to stop them.
"Ye Ling, go keep an eye on them, don't let those two cause trouble," Ye Kong instructed.
Ye Ling yawned, looked at Ye Qingjun and the others, and said indifferently, "What danger could there be in the Xinghe Sect?"
After speaking, Ye Ling lazily went to chase after Ye Xiaoyao and Ye Qingjun.
On Yin Yang Peak.
As soon as Ye Qingjun and Ye Hongxue arrived, they stopped.
Yin Yang Peak was very peculiar, half white and half black.
Ye Qingjun hugged Ye Hongxue and jumped off Erha, then, with her hands behind her back, walked on the dividing line in the middle.
Erha followed closely behind, step by step, as it had to protect Ye Qingjun and the others.
There were many new disciples on Yin Yang Peak, all wearing black and white robes. When they saw the disciples from Xiaoyao Peak, they all cupped their hands and saluted, "Greetings, Senior Sisters!"
Although Ye Qingjun and Ye Hongxue looked very young, they were from Xiaoyao Peak and had high status.
The Xinghe Nine Peaks determined rankings, establishing senior brothers and sisters.
Those ranked second had to call the disciples of the first peak Senior Sister or Senior Brother.
Those ranked first could call the disciples of other peaks Junior Brother or Junior Sister, except for the Peak's Successor. The Peak's Successors were future Peak Lords and were all considered Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters.
Ye Qingjun, with her hands behind her back, greeted them from time to time, putting on the airs of a little Senior Sister.
When they arrived at the main hall, the two hall masters who were guarding Yin Yang Peak came out to greet them.
"Two Senior Nieces, what do you want from my Yin Yang Peak?" one of the hall masters said with a smile.
"We just came to take a look around," Ye Qingjun said.
"Alright, then I'll arrange for a disciple to take you around my Yin Yang Peak," the hall master continued.
"No need, no need, we'll just take a quick look and leave," Ye Qingjun quickly waved her hand.
"Mm," Ye Hongxue nodded, then leaned close to Ye Qingjun's ear and whispered, "Little Senior Sister, I don't think that old man looks like a good person."
Ye Hongxue pointed to the hall master who was standing beside them without speaking.
He had a goatee, messy hair, wore Yin Yang robes, and held a horsetail whisk.
"Shh, don't talk nonsense, they can hear you," Ye Qingjun covered Ye Hongxue's small mouth and raised her head, smiling awkwardly:
"Sorry, my little Junior Sister is young and doesn't know any better."
"It's alright, Junior Brother Du'nan is quite reclusive, rarely goes out, and doesn't take care of himself," that hall master said with a faint smile.
If someone else had said that, they would probably be punished, but if it was a disciple from Xiaoyao Peak, it was fine.
"Hehe, then I'll take my little Junior Sister away first, sorry for disturbing you," Ye Qingjun said, calling Erha over and hugging Ye Hongxue onto Erha's back.
Just as she was about to leave, Ye Ling arrived.
"You two can play in the Xinghe Sect, but don't cause trouble," Ye Ling reminded them.
"You look familiar, have I met you before?"
"You've mistaken me for someone else," Du'nan said indifferently, returning to the hall.
"Sorry, my Junior Brother Du'nan is not good at communicating with people," the hall master said apologetically.
"It's alright."
Ye Ling waved her hand, turned around and flew away. On the way back, her mind was still full of doubts.
"Strange, why do I feel so familiar?"
Forget it, I've lived for so many years, I've seen too many people, maybe I'm just seeing things.
Ye Ling flew back to Xiaoyao Peak, sat under the willow tree, and continued to read the diary written by Hong.
She hoped to find some glorious history from her dark past to read to Ye Kong.
To tell him, I've done serious things too!
But no matter how much she flipped through it, she couldn't find anything good.
"Stop flipping, if you haven't done anything good, then you haven't done anything good, it's not a big deal," Ye Kong said, turning his head.
"I have, I just can't remember it," Ye Ling retorted, continuing to flip through.
After searching for a long time, she actually found something.
"In the year 7286 of the Immortal Ancient Era, the Yan Sect sent out thirteen disciples to guard the thirteen continents of the Immortal Cultivation World…"
"What does the Yan Sect sending out disciples to guard the thirteen continents have to do with you?" Ye Kong asked.
"Don't interrupt me, I haven't finished reading yet," Ye Ling said angrily, then continued to read:
"The following year, Yan discovered that his disciple, Du, showed signs of being brainwashed by the Great Buddha. Just as he was about to investigate, he was interrupted by Ling, who came to him for help. Then, Yan assisted Ling in repelling the Kui Ox clan."
After hearing the last part, Ye Kong turned to look at Ye Ling.
"So, this is your glorious history?"
Ye Ling shook her head and put down the book.
"Ye Kong, I just saw Du," Ye Ling said in a deep voice.
"Where?" Ye Kong asked.
"Yin Yang Peak!"
Ye Ling remembered that the person she thought looked familiar before was someone she knew.
Du!
After hearing this, Ye Kong instantly transformed the fishing rod in his hand into a long sword.
"So, Du has infiltrated the Xinghe Sect?" Ye Kong shook his head and said.
"He's hidden himself deeply!"
He had suspected before that Du hadn't left with the Great Buddha, but he didn't expect that not only was his suspicion correct, but Du was hiding in his Xinghe Sect.
Ye Ling looked at Ye Kong and said, "Du should have discovered me."
"Let's go!" Ye Kong grabbed his sword and led Ye Ling to Yin Yang Peak.
…
Yin Yang Peak.
After the two hall masters returned, Du'nan went back to his room to pack his things.
"Senior Brother, I'm going out for a while."
"Where are you going?" the hall master asked.
"I'm going to sit in charge of the Deadwood Gate for a while. After all, our Peak Lord is not here, and that place needs someone to guard it," Du'nan said.
"Do you need to take any disciples with you?"
"No need, there are already disciples from my Yin Yang Peak there."
"Alright, then be careful," the hall master nodded.
"Mm," Du'nan nodded, then looked at Xiaoyao Peak as he left, muttering, "I really didn't expect that Lord Ling would actually be on Xiaoyao Peak."
Is it because of the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak?
Forget it, I have to leave. Senior Brother Xing and Junior Brother Yun have already deduced that I am in Lianyun Continent. If they search one by one, they will find me sooner or later.
Just one more step and I can bring the Great Buddha and the others back!
Du'nan leaped up and disappeared from Yin Yang Peak.
He had just left when Ye Kong arrived with Ye Ling.
As soon as Ye Ling arrived, she released her divine sense and scanned the area. Not finding Du, she entered the main hall to inquire.
"Where's Du?"
"What Du? Are you asking about Junior Brother Du'nan? Junior Brother Du'nan just left, he's going to sit in charge of the Deadwood Gate," the hall master said truthfully.
Hearing this, Ye Kong put away his long sword and turned to leave.
Ye Ling followed him out.
"Ye Kong, he ran away."
"I know," Ye Kong said calmly.
