Banshee Family Training Record

Page 82

He responded, took the plaque, and went out to hang it up. Feng Jian and Lao Wen's eyes remained fixed on You Wensi, admiring her stunning beauty and taking in her changing emotions.

He sensed something was off about the atmosphere, so he focused his voice and whispered to his junior brothers and sisters, "Did we do something wrong? Why does this senior seem a bit off?"

Having grown up in a prominent family, Lao Wen immediately made his own judgment: "I understand. You see, Senior You Wensi is the head of the family, but we have been praising Fellow Daoist Yun in front of her. Won't she feel that we have offended her?"

Before Dongfang Yue could say anything, Feng Jian exclaimed, "You really understand these social niceties! Indeed, Monk Huijing is a bit too impractical. Junior Sister, let's bring out our gifts too, but we should change our address and say they're for the Huai Shan family!"

Immediately, the junior sister felt even more uneasy. She actually suspected that You Wensi's emotional change was due to some deeper reason.

But it's too late now. Whatever she says will be interpreted as still holding a grudge against Yun Chu'an. Feng Jian and the other two don't listen to her at all. The former has already taken action, taking out a red brocade banner from his dimensional bag and handing it to her: "After discussion, the Qingyun Sect also holds this view. Furthermore, we believe that Senior You Wensi, it is precisely because of your careful guidance and the strict family tradition of the Huai Shan family that we were able to overcome the crisis."

"To promote righteous values ​​and encourage more people to stand against evil, please accept this banner!"

As they spoke, the banner naturally fell, surrounded by a powerful spiritual energy, revealing four large, golden characters in a flowing, elegant style: "Light of the Righteous Path."

Outside, Yun Chu returned after setting up the plaque and saw this scene. His heart skipped a beat: "What the hell are you doing?!"

The remnant of the Corpse-Driving Sect, the infamous Granny Huaishan You Wensi, who has committed countless sins, is now standing behind the Eight Immortals Table, holding a banner with the four characters "Light of the Righteous Path" written on it.

Beside her, four guests from the Buddhist sect and the Qingyun sect stood on either side of her, seemingly there to highlight her greatness and glory.

“We are currently expressing our gratitude to Senior You Wensi,” Lao Wen said cheerfully. “It is thanks to her meticulous guidance that the Huai Shan family is such an upright and courageous family. Junior sister, let’s not delay any longer, let’s bring out the other banner as well!”

Dongfang Yue pouted, her inner suspicions making her reluctant, but since she had no evidence, she had no choice but to take out another banner from her dimensional bag and open it.

Above are four large, elegantly written characters: "Friends of Qingyun".

"This is a flag representing the friendship of the Qingyun Sect," she said, handing the flag to You Wensi. "We hope that you will accept it, senior, and let it protect the Huai Shan family on our behalf."

"From then on, the Qingyun Sect and the Huaishan Family became inseparable close friends."

You Wensi maintained her smile and accepted the banner. A round of loud applause rang out, but Yun Chuan observed closely and found that the woman's smile was extremely stiff. The feeling of being surrounded by these honors was more unbearable than death.

The Qingyun Sect was one of the main forces in the eradication of the Corpse-Driving Sect. Her shattered golden core was also the result of an elder of the Qingyun Sect taking action.

But today, she has become a friend of Qingyun!

You Wensi felt her soul trembling. Across the tea table, Yun Chuan was also holding his forehead, his inner emotions complex and hard to describe.

He hurriedly stepped forward and invited everyone to sit down. He served tea and water to those around him, and finally sat down next to You Wensi. He was in great turmoil, wondering when he would be able to get rid of these people.

Unfortunately, the group was all in high spirits and showed no sign of leaving. Feng Jian, sipping his tea, chatted casually, saying, "Of course, we also hope that these gifts will never take effect. As it stands, they'll soon just be symbolic."

"The Dragon King of the Wei River has taken the lead and contacted the Duke of Jin. Soon, the Princess of Jin will arrive with her delegation. With them coordinating things, the Golden Core cultivators from all sides can confidently step forward to exterminate the snake demon!"

He said this, and Yun Chu'an asked with some curiosity, "Speaking of which, this is also what I'm curious about. Why do the Golden Core cultivators of the major local families, such as the Dragon King family, the Wenren family, and the Nalan family, wait for Her Highness the Princess to arrive before they are willing to make their move? Isn't the Yellow Python family the most direct threat to their interests? Why are they all so slow to act?"

Feng Jian was taken aback; he couldn't answer the question. Lao Wen, who came from a prominent family, immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Yun, you think they're too monolithic. In reality, it's quite common for various families to scheme against each other and engage in intrigue."

“Since each family distrusts the other, they cannot form an alliance. Only when the Duke sends someone can they be convinced and willingly send troops.”

Yun Chu'an understood, and then couldn't help but sigh. Well, these aristocratic families are all the same, even in the cultivation world.

As he thought this, You Wensi, standing beside him, gradually calmed down. Her eyes flickered as she looked at the people in front of her, and she also sensed the value of the intelligence they possessed.

"With so much happening here, shouldn't the elders of the Qingyun Sect have arrived by now?" she suddenly asked. Feng Jian shook his head, "No, the sect is currently busy with important matters in the north and has no time to spare. The task here can only be left to us."

Yun Chu'an was surprised: "You? But the current situation has already involved experts at the Golden Core stage."

To this, Feng Jian smiled slightly: "Simple, then we'll just break through to the Golden Core stage, won't that solve it?"

As he spoke, he released a bit of spiritual energy fluctuations. In just a few days, he had become a cultivator in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage!

Following him, Lao Wen, standing beside him, also released some of his spiritual energy fluctuations, and said with a smile, "This can be considered a tradition of the Qingyun Sect. When Foundation Establishment disciples go out to train, they return to the sect as Golden Core or even Nascent Soul, and incidentally, they also resolve a major disaster and create a legend of the righteous path."

Beside her, Dongfang Yue looked at her two senior brothers with a hint of envy in her heart. Although she was the daughter of the sect leader, she had not inherited her parents' talent and was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Compared to her two senior brothers, her cultivation speed was much slower.

Yun Chu'an looked on with envy and sighed, "Upholding justice still depends on you all."

Feng Jian and the others repeatedly expressed their modesty, saying that they also needed the support of philanthropic families like the Huai Shan family. They exchanged pleasantries without stopping.

Chapter 195 Heaving Chest

You Wensi's beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at the group of people in front of her and suddenly asked, "You guys are really outstanding. I heard that your senior sister, Yan Shuiyi, killed a Golden Core cultivator with only Foundation Establishment cultivation a few days ago. Her achievement was earth-shattering and truly admirable. The younger generation is indeed formidable."

Caught off guard, Feng Jian waved his hand modestly upon hearing this: "Senior Sister was just lucky. She has been recovering from her injuries ever since, and we don't know when she will be able to fully recover."

You Wensi's eyes flickered, her expression shifting: "Oh, then you'd better be on high alert. There are countless demonic cultivators who are eyeing her life."

Lao Wen said, "Thank you for your concern. Actually, we also had this worry. Although the Dragon King of the Wei River said before..."

Before he could finish speaking, Dongfang Yue suddenly stepped on his foot again, interrupting him. She then smiled and said, "Although the Weihe Dragon King said he would do his best to protect Senior Sister, her previous secret recuperation location has been exposed. Alas, I really don't know if this new secret recuperation location will work. I wonder if the three Golden Core cultivators sent to protect her can withstand the giant snakes' sneak attacks."

She said this deliberately, but You Wensi narrowed her eyes and took in her little actions: "Hehe, the old Dragon King has a good reputation. Since he made the arrangements, they are reliable. I was overthinking it."

Dongfang Yue nodded: "Moreover, although Senior Sister said she was recuperating this time, she was actually in seclusion. After killing the Golden Core cultivator, she has gained new insights, and she will definitely be able to break through in a short time."

She spoke with such confidence that even Feng Jian and Lao Wen were somewhat suspicious, frequently glancing at her in confusion as to why she would say such a thing.

However, Dongfang Yue merely gave them a meaningful look, continuing the conversation. Lao Wen pondered for a moment, then suddenly understood, forming his own interpretation. He focused his voice, reminding his senior brother, "Senior brother, we need to convince people that the Qingyun Sect is indeed a powerful backer!"

Ahead, You Wensi's eyes flickered, and she nodded slightly: "Oh, I see. Then I must congratulate the Qingyun Sect in advance on gaining another capable Golden Core cultivator."

Hearing their worries, Yun Chu'an felt anxious and gave an awkward laugh, saying, "I heard that even three Golden Core stage snakes that attacked together were forced back. I suppose the Yellow Python Clan can't send out more forces to attack the place where she is recuperating?"

You Wensi raised her eyelids, glanced at him, and without making a sound, she slightly tightened the hand that was holding his, pulling him towards her.

Yun Chu'an was pulled over by her, and she heard her whisper, "Don't say anything, I'll handle them."

This was a clear reminder. Yun Chu'an turned his head and looked at the woman's profile. Although she was a locust tree spirit, at such close range, he could clearly see that her facial skin was also delicate, with a slight red tinge of blood, so smooth and delicate that it was tempting.

He swallowed hard, his mind racing. Since You Wensi wouldn't let him speak, what could he do to influence the situation?

What to do, what to do...

He pondered deeply. Earlier, Feng Jian thought he had understood his junior sister's meaning, so he nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, once Senior Sister breaks through to the Golden Core stage, all those evil and heretical people will have to pay the price!"

Lao Wen quickly added, "The Huang Mang family, and the remnants of the Corpse-Driving Sect, oh, especially the remnants of the Corpse-Driving Sect, she can't escape!"

You Wensi's eyes flickered: "Oh? Remnants of the Corpse-Driving Sect? I've heard that since the Corpse-Driving Sect was wiped out, the remaining members have disappeared without a trace and are very difficult to find."

"Could it be that you've found some clue that allows you to pinpoint that remnant?"

Her voice trailed off, making Yun Chu'an's heart leap into his throat. Ahead, Feng Jian hesitated, his tone uncertain: "I don't know if Senior Sister saw it clearly, but her sword strike that day certainly pierced through the disguise of those remnants of the Corpse-Driving Sect..."

Lao Wen gave a look, indicating that it was time to bluff, and then quickly added, "My senior sister told me that she saw it."

Yun Chu'an's heart and lungs stopped abruptly. He then heard the man say, "Underneath that black robe is an ugly old woman in her eighties. She has an unsightly long face, a hunched back, wrinkles all over her face, and triangular eyes. She is clearly corrupted by yin energy. She is as ugly as can be."

Feng Jian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh, so that guy you were discussing the other day, with a pockmarked face, pus-draining ears, yellow teeth, and a foul stench, was that remnant of the Corpse-Driving Sect!"

Lao Wen clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up: "That's right! As the saying goes, your appearance reflects your heart. Those despicable and shameless evil people are so ugly. Just one look at them is enough to make you sick and unable to sleep for three days and three nights!"

Feng Jian nodded repeatedly, and then flattered, "But for a family like the Huai Shan family, which has accumulated so much good karma, to produce a cultivator as handsome and refined as Fellow Daoist Yun, that is the difference between good and evil!"

His praise left Dongfang Yue bewildered. Her only intention was to have her two senior brothers keep quiet and not reveal her true situation, but…

What did those two people connect the dots to?

Although the purpose of releasing the smoke bomb was achieved, but... did Senior Sister tell me what the remnants of the Corpse-Driving Sect looked like?

She was confused. Beside her, Huijing had already realized that the two of them were lying, but she couldn't call them out on it. She could only close her eyes and silently chant, "Amitabha!"

Across the octagonal table, listening to the string of adjectives from the two people, You Wensi was stunned for a moment, and then she was absolutely furious!

An octogenarian? Stooped? Long face? Triangular eyes? Face full of wrinkles?!

A face covered in pockmarks? Ears oozing pus? Mouth full of yellow teeth? Reeking of a foul odor?!

Come here, you bunch of bastards, look at me, look at my face and tell me, what exactly about me matches your description!

She was so angry that she trembled all over, took a deep breath, and her full chest heaved violently.

That hateful Yan Shuiyi, how dare you slander my appearance like this! Don't let me catch you, or I will torture you until you wish you were dead!

Beside her, Yun Chu'an felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Listening to the two senior brothers' slanderous accusations, he could almost see them being beaten into a pulp!

Friend, it's not that I didn't want to save you, brother, it's just that you brought this on yourself...

He let out a silent lament, and then felt the woman holding his hand beside him trembling.

He glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, but then he couldn't take his eyes off it again.

The fitted women's robe worn by Granny Huaishan had a diamond-shaped opening at the chest, which allowed anyone looking at her to see her deep cleavage, making it impossible to look away.

But at this moment, she was sitting side by side with Yun Chuan, and since Yun Chuan was slightly taller than her, she could look down and look into his eyes from above.

Therefore, he could see the deep cleavage between her full breasts, and her fair skin was as smooth as jade. At this moment, because You Wensi was emotionally agitated and breathing heavily, her full breasts heaved and trembled violently.

He wanted to look away and not lose his composure, but those trembling, large breasts were like a magnet, making it impossible for him to look away. He just wanted to keep staring.

Even further!

Damn it, what kind of situation is this? We can't let this happen!

He roared inwardly, while You Wensi's attention was still on the four people in front of her, and she did not notice that Yun Chuan had already taken in the full view of her cleavage.

She was so angry that she wanted to kill them on the spot, but then she thought that killing them would be meaningless except for venting her anger. Instead, it would alert Yan Shuiyi, who was her target and the biggest threat to her safety.

Let's be patient for now.

Chapter 196 Did they sleep together?

Thinking this, You Wensi forced a smile and said, "It seems that things will go very smoothly for you from now on, which is a good thing for the righteous path."

Feng Jian chuckled and was about to say something more when Hui Jing, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore: "Senior, Benefactor Yun, we still have a mission to complete. Now that the plaque has been handed over, we will not disturb you any longer and will take our leave."

He stood up, unable to bear the continued nonsense spouted by the people around him any longer; he had reached his limit.

Lao Wen and the others actually wanted to chat a little longer, but since Hui Jing, who had the highest cultivation level, had said so, they could only get up and say goodbye.

Feng Jian stood up and said, "We should be going too. Oh dear, I forgot, how is Fellow Daoist Ye Jinglan's poison injury healing?"

Yun Chu'an shook his head, his expression somber: "She's not better yet. After all, it's a poison from a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. She's still recovering."

Feng Jian then took out a small box and handed it to him, saying, "The path of a virtuous person is always full of hardships, so we must help each other even more. Senior Sister specifically instructed us to bring this. These are two specially made antidote pills. All toxins below the Golden Core level can be neutralized after taking them."

"I would like to trouble Fellow Daoist Yun to pass this item on behalf of my senior sister to Fellow Daoist Ye Jinglan. My senior sister said that once she recovers from her injuries and is back to her best condition, she will definitely make time to come and have a sparring match with her."

Yun Chu'an was quite surprised that Yan Shuiyi still remembered this matter. He accepted it, expressed his gratitude politely, and Feng Jian and the others took their leave without further delay.

Seeing that they were really leaving, Yun Chuan breathed a long sigh of relief. You Wensi let go of his hand, so he quickly got up to see them off: "Gentlemen, please come again soon."

You Wensi stood up, smiling, and said, "Yes, the doors of the Huai Shan family are always open to you. Please bring your senior sister and come often in the future."

Dongfang Yue glanced at her and declined, saying, "Senior Sister is very busy and may not be able to get away. We'll try our best next time."

You Wensi said, "This is also my wish as a mother. My daughter's father passed away early, and she herself doesn't have much talent. I also hope that she can make more friends with kind cultivators, so that if one day in the future... she will have someone to take care of her in the cultivation world."

As she spoke, she lowered her head, her face filled with sorrow and grief. Yun Chu'an muttered to herself, "You old hag, you're probably plotting something against Yan Shuiyi," but she quickly helped her up and comforted her, telling her not to be sad.

Feng Jian and Lao Wen exchanged a glance, and the former said, "We will report this matter to Senior Sister. If there is an opportunity in the future, we will of course visit each other often."

You Wensi was finally satisfied and instructed Yun Chu'an to see the guests off. The four of them went down the mountain and quickly disappeared from sight. Yun Chu'an's heart pounded. He turned around and saw that the woman was no longer the gentle and elegant woman she had been before; her face was filled with endless coldness.

He felt cold all over and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. Although he secretly suspected that his mother-in-law was keeping him for another purpose and would never kill him now.

But if she needs to vent her anger, who knows what awaits her?

He waited anxiously, and then he saw the woman raise her head and look at him with cold eyes: "You did very well. The people of Qingyun Sect all regard you as an old friend."

Yun Chu'an bowed and cupped his hands: "That day they suddenly came up the mountain in disguise. I didn't know they were from the Qingyun Sect. I only saw that they were hiding their true strength and that we couldn't afford to offend them. They were also inquiring about whether there were any zombies in the mountains, so..."

He recounted everything that happened that day, and what followed, in detail. Grandma Huai Shan remained calm, recalling the incident and suddenly understanding, but also feeling a lingering fear.

She wasn't afraid of ordinary Golden Core experts coming to her door. As a former late-stage Golden Core cultivator, she had plenty of ways to torment these enemies whose cultivation was inferior to hers. It was precisely because of these methods that she, at the level of a Remnant Core cultivator, earned a formidable reputation and allowed the Huai Mountain family to gain a foothold in the mountains.

But while the King of Hell is easy to deal with, his underlings are hard to handle. It was really difficult for her to guard against several Qi Refining stage cultivators sneaking in like this. Now that she knew the whole story, she couldn't help but secretly admire them.

This man is quite intelligent, and I can use him. If I make good use of him, he will surely become a powerful tool in my hands in the future.

Unfortunately, my safety and cultivation level are still my top priorities, so I can't rely too much on this person.

She lowered her eyes, pondering quietly, and after a moment looked up again, her beautiful eyes fixed on him: "You did a good job. I can see that these people trust you a lot now."

"So, I need you to do something for me."

Yun Chu'an's heart skipped a beat: "Please speak."

“Let Yan Shuiyi come to our house again,” she said. “That girl just now kept making excuses. She doesn’t give me face, but she gives you face.”

Just as Yun Chuan was about to say that it wasn't like that, he saw You Wensi raise her hand to stop him: "Don't argue, that's just how things are. So, I need you to invite Yan Shuiyi to our home."

"After this is accomplished, your family will remember your contribution."
