Life was like this at times. The more hopeless something was, the happier it would be in the end.

Seeing Miao Ling's tired face with a smile on the corner of his mouth, Yao Yuan could tell that Miao Ling had spent a lot of effort on this, hence he directly hugged him and whispered into Miao Ling's ear: "Thank you."

Miao Ling was so confused by Yao Yuan's sudden action that she didn't know what to do for a moment.

Miao Ling, who had lived in the Ten Miles Temple for a long time, had never experienced something like this, nor had she ever had the chance to speak to the opposite sex in a soft voice.

But at this moment, a person who was not related to him in any way, a master and disciple, actually hugged her tightly like this. Miao Ling's little face turned red, as if she was a burning monkey's ass.

Just as Yao Yuan was sighing emotionally, he suddenly felt the area around his face turn hot and hot. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he saw a blushing Miao Ling.

She didn't know, but Yao Yuan realized that something was wrong, so he immediately let go of her hands and laughed embarrassedly: "About that, I was still too excited, sorry about that."

Miao Ling waved her hand and said: "It's nothing, okay, let's go back now."

Miao Ling tried her best to temporarily forget what had just happened, and quickly left the place with Yao Yuan.

Ling Xiangchen, who was behind them and saw everything that had happened a moment ago, watched as the two quickly left and smiled. Then, he seemed to recall something and bitterly sighed.

Now that Miao Ling had received the Skills Competition's invitation letter, her plans to assassinate Chen Si had basically succeeded halfway.

But at this time, Yao Yuan no longer dared to stay in his own home. His Seven Monsters of Southern Ling was still like a curse and was still circling above his head, especially after that woman died that day, Yao Yuan could even imagine the hatred his Seven Monsters of Southern Ling had towards him.

If one were to say that the goal of Seven Monsters of Southern Ling was to complete Nan Qiming's mission in the beginning, for the sake of his own money, then this time, it was not simple. The death of their loved ones, which led to their revenge on Yao Yuan, was their greatest motivation.

"Stay here?"

Miao Ling said half-jokingly.

Yao Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Miao Ling, and slowly said: "If I am killed by someone in a while, will you collect my corpse for me?"

Before returning to the Cloud Gate, Yao Yuan had specifically asked him about the matters regarding the Seven Monsters of Southern Ling. In the mouth of the Taoist Xu Hua, these seven people were nothing more than clowns, it was only because they had more people that they seemed so imposing, and it was not a big deal.

But these were the words of the Taoist Xu Hua after all. To him, perhaps only those in the Sea Sand could be barely counted as experts.

However, for Yao Yuan, an expert of Stream was already too far away for him to reach. The only thing he could do now was to protect himself well.

"First, you have to protect your own little life. You have to remember, you can't die in the hands of this group of people, and once you get killed by them, all of the memories in your mind will be made known to them. When that happens, it will be a mess for the entire Cultivation Realm."

Taoist Xu Hua seemed to have talked a little too much. After realizing that he said the wrong things, he immediately shut his mouth and deliberately changed the topic.

Since the Taoist Xu Hua was unwilling to talk more about it, Yao Yuan knew that even if he were to bring up an even bigger secret, this was not a good time to talk about it. Many things would only be of greater value when and on a given occasion.

It was obvious that this was what had happened to him.

"Just treat it as a secret."

Yao Yuan saw that the matter was very open.

Seven Monsters of Southern Ling was famous for being ruthless and merciless. If he really provoked them, unless he could get rid of all of them by himself, the best outcome would be for him to leave an intact corpse.

This group of people could do anything.

Thus, the moment they came out of Cloud Gate, Yao Yuan immediately called Xi Shulei, telling her to find a place to hide for a while.

That is the only solution for the time being.

He only said that he wanted Yao Yuan to protect him for a week. When it was time for Ah Gou to gather all the evidence, he would immediately act and grab Seven Monsters of Southern Ling.

Yao Yuan laid inside Kuntai's office for another five days. These five days, Miao Ling had gone against the norm and she, who was usually unusually lively, had already stayed still for nearly ten hours, without moving at all.

"He isn't stunned, is he?"

Yao Yuan still remembered ten hours ago, when Miao Ling suddenly stared into Yao Yuan's eyes, letting him look at his own body.

At first, Yao Yuan had thought that it was some kind of coquettish request, but when he was about to do something, he ended up using his spirit energy to feel the changes in his body.

Yao Yuan could not tell that there were no changes to the place that the spirit qi had passed, and it was almost exactly the same as usual.

At that time, Yao Yuan was still thinking about why it was happening, but Miao Ling did not say anything.

While Yao Yuan was still feeling depressed, he suddenly received a call. He saw that the phone number was actually from Cloud Gate's own master.

Yao Yuan quickly picked it up, not wanting to delay anything, so he quickly asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Kid, you have the chance. Fools have luck."

Taoist Xu Hua suddenly said this emotionally. This made Yao Yuan feel very strange, but since Master said so, it might actually be good news.

Taoist Xu Hua did not continue, and only asked Yao Yuan to come over.

Now, every time he went out the door, it would be a severe test for Yao Yuan.

After all, Seven Monsters of Southern Ling were still in Qingjiang and the entire city would become very dangerous.

Carefully walking out of the office, Yao Yuan found a place with no people, and immediately summoned the "Tendrils Cloud" beneath his feet, flying straight to the place where the Cloud Gate was located.

When he came to his master's side, Yao Yuan respectfully looked at his actions, and knew what he needed to do within a second. Taking advantage of Taoist Xu Hua's good mood, Yao Yuan asked while grinning: "Master, what news is it?"

Taoist Xu Hua did not say anything, only smiled, and then looked in a direction.

Yao Yuan looked in the direction of the gaze and saw that it was a card. Looking at the package, it seemed to be a little similar to the invitation letter that Miao Ling had received a few days ago.

'Could it be … '
