#621 - Chapter 621 Undercurrent
After listening, Mo Di replied, "I will tell you when I encounter it, my lord."
The Yue Emperor smiled and said, "Excellent!"
Two days passed quickly.
The list of disciples chosen by each peak to participate in the battle has been finalized, and the dance and music festival prepared by Wanhua Peak will also be held today.
Since Sect Leader Luo Yangtian announced that Wanhua Peak would start the dance and music festival, everyone on Wanhua Peak, including the disciples responsible for cleaning, became busy.
After two days of tireless efforts, Wanhua Peak was completely renewed, and even the invitations sent to various continents and major sects were not missed.
In the blink of an eye, the sun was high in the sky, and Lin Yaoyao and the others were dressed in new clothes, standing in a row by the Sea of Bitterness.
Ye Kong, who had just gone to the Forbidden Sea, arrived late.
He received news last night and returned to the Forbidden Sea after hearing Ye Ling's account, so he rushed to investigate overnight, but found nothing.
"Master, where have you been?" Lin Yaoyao asked unhappily when she saw that the sun was already high in the sky and Ye Kong had just arrived from outside.
"Just went out for a walk. Is there anything you need?"
This was the first time Ye Kong had seen his disciples get up so early, especially Xiao Bai, and he was immediately puzzled.
"Master, Senior Sister Su Qingwan sent us invitations yesterday, have you forgotten?" Ye Hongxue stamped her foot heavily, somewhat dissatisfied.
"Oh, that matter, do you want to go?" Ye Kong received the invitation yesterday, but he casually put it aside and didn't take it to heart.
The troubled times are coming soon, and he doesn't know what kind of medicine the Sect Leader is selling in his gourd. Why hold a dance and music festival at this time?
"Of course we're going, it's a rare chance to relax." Lin Yaoyao said unhappily.
Since going to the ancient ruins, Lin Yaoyao and the others have almost always been fighting or on the way to fighting. Therefore, they are quite looking forward to this dance and music festival.
At least it can give them a chance to relax and unwind.
"Alright, since you all want to go, let's go then."
Ye Kong took out the spirit boat, jumped on it first, and asked Lin Yaoyao and the others to come up as well.
Lin Yaoyao couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Master, have you even looked at the address on the invitation?"
"The dance and music festival held by Wanhua Peak this time is still at the original Wanhua Peak, which is not far from us, so there's no need for a spirit boat."
Ye Kong touched his head embarrassedly when he heard this and said, "I'm too lazy to fly."
Lin Yaoyao: Okay, I finally know who Xiao Bai learned his laziness from.
The current Wanhua Peak is much more luxurious than before, because of the grand event, the entire Wanhua Peak has been decorated beautifully.
Every branch on every tree is fluttering with red ribbons.
Every road on Wanhua Peak is covered with red carpets.
Under the eaves, rows of exquisite wind chimes are hung.
On the windows, red folded hydrangea flowers, as well as paper-cuts with auspicious meanings such as double fish playing in the water, mandarin ducks playing with beads, and dragons and phoenixes bringing prosperity are pasted.
Large red curtains hang straight down from the top of the towering roof ridge, and the soft smoky gauze material adds a bit of misty charm.
On the open space in front of the entire Wanhua Peak, three platforms are set up high.
The first platform is similar to the arena used for martial arts competitions and talent tests, the second platform is similar to the high platform used by ancient women to choose their husbands, with festive red everywhere, and the third platform is decorated like a fairyland on earth, also mainly red, but it is not clear what it is for.
Although Lin Yaoyao and the others were looking forward to this dance and music festival, they were still shocked and opened their mouths wide when they actually saw it.
Liu Ruyan, who was standing at the front to welcome guests, saw Ye Kong bringing his disciples and quickly stepped forward and said, "Ye Kong, you're here, I was just looking for you."
Ye Kong glanced at the red everywhere and smiled at Liu Ruyan, "We're here, but why is your dance and music festival arranged like a scene for choosing a son-in-law?"
As soon as Ye Kong finished speaking, Lin Yaoyao and the others became a little uneasy.
Master, can you not be so honest?
How people arrange things is their business, isn't what you said questioning their efforts?
Sure enough, Liu Ruyan's expression changed, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and laughed, "Haha."
"Peak Master Ye is indeed still so straightforward, I like it, please come in!"
Seeing that Liu Ruyan didn't intend to say anything, Ye Kong didn't ask any more questions, and found a quiet place to sit down after entering.
He also said to Lin Yaoyao and the others, "You guys go around and have fun, just don't get lost, we'll go back together later."
Seeing that this dance and music festival was arranged somewhat novelly, Lin Yaoyao and the others had long wanted to go and see it, and when they heard Ye Kong say this, they said.
"Master, we'll come back after taking a look."
Ye Kong nodded and closed his eyes to doze off.
When he just came in, he found that there were several people who were not right, and deliberately ran to this remote place.
He also sent Lin Yaoyao and the others away, just to see what kind of medicine these people were selling in their gourds.
Not far from Ye Kong, a couple dressed up as husband and wife seemed to be chatting idly, but in fact they were monitoring Ye Kong's every move.
They observed for a long time, and seeing that Ye Kong was just sleeping without moving, they couldn't help but become impatient.
The man spoke first, "Aruo, do you think the boss made a mistake? That person is only at the Qi training stage, and besides sleeping, he's still sleeping, how can he have any great skills?"
The woman's aura and tone of voice seemed to be higher than the man's, and she scolded lightly when she heard the man complain.
"Shut up! How can you guess the thoughts of the adults?"
The man's mouth moved, and he wanted to argue something, but he didn't say anything after all.
Ye Kong waited for a long time, and seeing that the two of them were just staring at him without moving, and listening to their conversation, they were not the kind of people who could say anything, he suddenly felt a little bored.
So he pretended to wake up from a nap and walked forward unsteadily.
Seeing Ye Kong get up and leave, the fake couple quickly exchanged glances and followed not too closely.
Ye Kong smiled and suddenly quickened his pace, disappearing around the corner in an instant.
Seeing Ye Kong speed up, the two also quickened their pace to catch up.
But unexpectedly, they couldn't see Ye Kong's踪影 after turning the corner.
"What to do? I didn't expect a Qi training cultivator to be so cunning!" Seeing that Ye Kong was gone, the man cursed.
Seeing that the man was complaining again, the woman said coldly, "Shut up! You lost someone, and you're still talking so much, do you want to die?"
Hearing this, the man shrank his neck and didn't dare to speak.
The woman then said, "You stay here and guard, I'll report to the adults. Don't run around, and contact me in time if anything happens."
The man moved his lips, wanting to say something.
The woman obviously didn't give him this chance and disappeared directly.
Seeing the two separate, Ye Kong was exactly what he wanted.
He took out a stone from his sleeve and threw it at the man who was still looking around.
"Bang!" The man fell to the ground in response.
"Heh, with such little skill, you want to follow me?"
Ye Kong stepped forward, took off the man's coat and put it on himself, and then disposed of the man's body.
