A graceful figure descended, looking like a celestial being, with a gentle sparkle in her star-like eyes. Her flawless face exuded a touch of elegance and beauty.
With an extraordinary temperament, Meng Yao, now disguised as Su Yi, caught the attention of everyone. Although she appeared to be around the same age as himself, her alluring curves were irresistible. A fragrance reminiscent of flowers and grass wafted to Su Yiâs nose, smelling very pleasant.
Su Yi finally understood the fear that Fuyao Sectâs two members had just experienced when they were scared from behind. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "Isnât this Miss Meng Yao? You came quickly!"
Meng Yao covered her face with a smile. There was a slight fluctuation in her bright eyes as she chuckled and said, "Dear brother, you just saved my life. I helped you fend off the Shadow of Emperor Sparrow. Consider it even!"
Su Yi looked up at Meng Yao. It was clear that she was no ordinary person. He questioned, "Is it really you? Who are you, exactly?"
Seeing Su Yiâs puzzled expression, Meng Yao giggled even more, saying softly, "Havenât you seen me before? I am Meng Yao!"
Su Yi deployed his spiritual energy to investigate and discovered that Meng Yaoâs cultivation was indeed at the Yuan True Realm. However, there was a profound and impenetrable energy hidden within her, making it impossible for him to discern her true strength.
"Are you here to take the Life Return Leaf? Iâve already bought it!" Su Yiâs gaze sharpened as he stared at the Luminous Box, ready at any moment.
Meng Yao raised her hand and pointed to her chin, saying, "Hmm⊠Yes, hurry up, bring me one million Yuan Stones!"
Su Yi felt extremely distressed in his heart and originally wanted to say that she should go to Overlord Sect to get it. After thinking for a while, he changed his mind and said, "Miss Meng Yao, give me a few days, can I give it to you later? No one carries so many Yuan Stones with them! I, Su Yi, will never owe anyone."
"Okay, okay, you can say anything!" Meng Yao lightly swayed her petite body and said cutely.
"Okay, since itâs possible, weâll see each other again!"
The Meng Yao in front of him was very peculiar. Beautiful women couldnât be trusted, there was some truth to it.
Su Yi tidied up a bit, put the Life Return Leaf into the space bag, and a determined look flashed in his eyes. He turned around and performed the Hundred Transformations Step, his wings behind him flapped, accelerating to the extreme, running as fast as possible.
"I havenât finished yet! Come back!" Meng Yao furrowed her eyebrows and shouted loudly.
Meng Yao tilted her head and looked at the direction Su Yi was leaving, murmuring, "He moves quite well, running like a little butterfly, so cute!"
Immediately, a sparkle appeared in Meng Yaoâs eyes, and she smiled, saying, "He seems really different from other men! That little girl thinks of him every day, not without reason!" Then she disappeared from the spot once again.
"Swoosh!"
Su Yi used the Hundred Transformations Step to swiftly fly to the depths of Baicao Mountain. He then activated the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, but couldnât sense Meng Yao nearby. Relieved, Su Yi opened a blue ice barrier, concealing his presence perfectly.
"This Cloud Shadow Tread Frost Step is really useful. It can be used for hiding, tracking, and assassinating. I need to study the second level more carefully!"
Just as Su Yi was about to sit down, a gentle voice came from above, saying, "Why are you hiding from me?"
A ghostly voice suddenly terrified Su Yi. He quickly jumped up and created some distance between himself and Meng Yao. Without looking back, he continued to move deeper into the forest.
Su Yi, who was traversing the mountains and forests, felt anxious and thought to himself, "This woman is crazy. She can keep up with my speed, which means her cultivation level is definitely higher than Yuan True Realm. If sheâs following me, it canât be for anything good. If she wants to follow me, then let her follow!"
After a while, Su Yi had penetrated deep into the heart of Baicao Mountain, where a range of mountains stretched before his eyes.
On these mountains stood majestic palaces, exuding a powerful aura. It looked like a golden dragon lying across them. This was the Sacred Mountain Academy.
Su Yi found a secluded bush, sat down, and concealed his presence. He carefully observed the area ahead, thinking that Meng Yao wouldnât be able to catch up.
Suddenly, a gentle voice came to Su Yiâs ears, and warm breath brushed against his skin, making him feel both relaxed and overwhelmed.
"Why did you run away as soon as you saw me? Huh?" The voice was sweet and teasing, like scratching an itch, stirring up Su Yiâs anger.
Su Yi stood up right away and shouted, "You!" His eyes filled with resentment as he looked at Meng Yaoâs stubbornly beautiful face. Su Yi was at a loss for words.
"Am I not attractive enough for you? Running away faster than a little bunny! Tell me, are you a rabbit? No, a little dog!"
Su Yi sparkled and impatiently said, "What do you want! If youâre from the Black Mist Underground House, go wherever you need to go, and donât bother me!"
Before he finished speaking, Meng Yao quickly covered his mouth with her smooth jade-like fingers and urgently said, "Shh! Why are you shouting? Donât you know where weâre heading?"
Su Yiâs eyes rolled under Meng Yaoâs hand. She was pressed tightly against him, and the scent of orchids filled his nostrils. With his mouth covered, he whispered, "I know! Sacred Mountain Academy!"
"You know and yet you still dare to speak so loudly. Youâre recklessly seeking death! Do you really want to drag me along? Youâre so mean!"
Meng Yao waved her small, snowy white hand in front of Su Yi and pointed at him. Su Yi rolled his eyes in response.
Soon, Meng Yao changed the subject and slowly approached Su Yi, saying softly, "But you are just as interesting as the rumors say! I like you!"
Su Yiâs eyes widened in surprise. Does she know who he is?
Meng Yao shrugged and pretended to be helpless, saying, "Why are you looking at me like that? Arenât you Su Yi? The person who caused chaos in Sacred Mountain!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yi quickly pulled away Meng Yaoâs hand, exclaiming, "You know Iâm Su Yi and you still follow me? If Iâm going down, youâll go down with me?"
Meng Yao pretended to cry and looked up at Su Yi sadly, saying, "Little Black Robes ran away. I have no one to play with. Iâm bored! Besides, you still owe me so much money. Until you pay me back, keeping me company is the interest I charge!"
Su Yi felt overwhelmed and found a secluded and quiet spot to sit down, no longer looking at Meng Yao. He sat on the ground, focusing on his breathing.
Meng Yao sat down confidently with her curved eyelashes, looking left and right at Su Yi.
Finally, she took Su Yiâs wrist and rested her head on his shoulder, saying, "Iâll say it again, youâre not allowed to leave me! If you dare leave me, Iâll shout loudly!"
Su Yi felt speechless. The woman in front of him clearly had stronger abilities than himself, but he couldnât sense any malice. Since he couldnât escape, he would face it head-on.
He shook his head and gestured to Meng Yao that he didnât want to go. He whispered, "Just talk, but donât lean on me!"
Meng Yao replied, "Oh," then put down the soft flower and turned to look at Sacred Mountain Academy, humming softly.
"Thatâs good. Why did you come here? Is there something fun here?"
