There are too many girls, which greatly delays my cultivation of immortality.

Lin Zhiruo pouted and said, "If Master doesn't go, I...I won't go either!"

Zhang Kaidong said in a deep voice: "What are you talking about? This is a business matter, not a private matter. How can you allow you to push back? Mr. Ye is the person whom the princess trusts most, will he still harm you?"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "Since Miss Zhiruo doesn't want to go, I won't force anyone to make it difficult."

He opened his mouth and said, "Young Master Ye saved our lives, so we must help you with this. Just tell us how we can meet up at night."

Ye Qingchen secretly thought that since he insisted on this, it would be a good idea to drag Lin Zhiruo into the water first.

"My Qinggong is very high and my speed is extremely fast. If you are sure you want to go, just wait for me at the chain bridge."

He opened the hole and nodded: "Okay, I'll ask Zhiruo to leave early and wait for you over there."

After dark that night, Ye Qingchen took a sack, loaded it with Xiong Youyi, and headed out of the city towards Wufeng Gorge against the wind.

From a distance, I saw a lonely and thin figure at the end of the chain bridge, looking around constantly, looking alert and nervous.

Ye Qingchen felt sour in his heart. After Wuxia Village was massacred, the area was deserted for dozens of miles. There have been many major murders here, making it even more eerie and terrifying.

It's really hard for her to be left alone here as a girl.

Ye Qingchen originally planned to tease her on the way, but now he could no longer bear it.

He floated to the ground far away, carrying the sack and walking towards the bridge.

Lin Zhiruo saw a dark figure coming over, pressed her hand on the hilt of her sword, and asked in a sharp voice, "Is it Young Master Ye?"

Ye Qingchen walked up quickly and said, "It's me, Miss Zhiruo, who kept you waiting for so long."

Under the moonlight, Lin Zhiruo looked charming.

"You must be scared here alone, right?" Ye Qingchen asked worriedly.

"Nonsense!" Lin Zhiruo raised her head and said, "I am very brave. How often have you ever been afraid?"

Ye Qingchen smiled slightly and walked towards the bridge.

The two came to the foot of the cliff where the cave was located.

Lin Zhiruo looked up, thinking of everything she had experienced here, she still felt lingering fear.

Ye Qingchen hugged her waist, stood up from the ground, and flew directly into the cave.

It was pitch black in the cave, and I couldn't see my fingers. Lin Zhiruo was afraid of heights and quickly stood sideways into the cave.

Ye Qingchen mobilized his spiritual consciousness to investigate, and after confirming that there was no danger, he created a special spiritual barrier at the entrance of the cave. People outside cannot see directly into the cave, nor can they break in directly.

Although as long as the cultivation level is high enough, this barrier still cannot stop him, but as long as he can block it, it can also give Ye Qingchen a certain buffer time.

Ye Qingchen pulled out the Dragon Sword and injected spiritual power to illuminate the cave.

Lin Zhiruo calmed down a little and asked, "What kind of help does Young Master Ye want from me?"

Ye Qingchen looked at her and smiled evilly: "Hey, you were sold to me by your master. Now that we are alone here, I can do whatever I want."

Lin Zhiruo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You're here again, can you say something serious?"

Ye Qingchen said: "What I said is true. Here, even if you scream and break your throat, no one will come to save you."

Lin Zhiruo raised her head and watched coldly, showing no fear.

Ye Qingchen asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Zhiruo said: "What is there to be afraid of?"

Ye Qingchen said: "I'm going to take off your clothes!"

Lin Zhiruo remained unmoved.

Ye Qingchen said: "Hey, why are you so brave?"

Lin Zhiruo smiled slightly: "It's not that I'm brave, but I believe you can't do such an animal thing. I've said before that you are not a bad person, you just like to tease people and talk nonsense."

Ye Qingchen nodded and said, "You guys from the Insight Department are really good at insight."

As he spoke, he led the way and led Lin Zhiruo towards the back of the cave.

Seeing Ye Qingchen enter the narrow hole without hesitation, Lin Zhiruo couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Master Ye, do I want to come too?"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said, "Whatever, you can just wait for me here."

Lin Zhiruo hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dare to stay here alone, so she had to get into the hole and follow him.

After a while, when we reached the heart of the cave bottom, the space gradually became wider, with fresh excavation marks everywhere, and digging tools such as hoes and drills were also discarded on the ground.

Lin Zhiruo thought that it was late at night and she was actually deep in the heart of the mountain with a man. She couldn't help but feel a chill on her back and goosebumps all over her body.

Here, if the other party has evil intentions, she really has no choice but to be at their mercy, and there is no way to even seek death.

Ye Qingchen took out four sacks from the Yao bag and was about to start digging when he suddenly looked at Lin Zhiruo and said with a grin, "Miss Zhiruo, you really can't run away now!"

Lin Zhiruo was shocked, backed away, and said in panic: "Master Ye, you... what are you going to do?"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said, "Didn't you say that you were not afraid just now? Why are you afraid again?"

Lin Zhiruo said angrily: "You...you scared me to death! This is in the heart of the mountain. How can I not be afraid of a girl?"

Ye Qingchen said: "Haha... It seems that your judgment on me, a good person, is not so firm."

As he spoke, he began to dig soil and put it into sacks.

Lin Zhiruo saw this and stepped forward to help him hold the mouth of the bag to make it easier for him to load the soil.

"You asked me to help, didn't you just ask me to hold the bag?"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "Actually, I'm just afraid of being lonely alone and want you to accompany me."

Lin Zhiruo smiled slightly: "I guess you also feel a little scared to go deep into the cave alone, right?"

Ye Qingchen said: "Just take it as such."

After a while, four bags of spiritual soil were filled and ready to be transported outside.

Lin Zhiruo said: "I'll help you transport a bag."

Ye Qingchen hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, no, how can you let Miss Lin do such rough and tiring work?"

Lin Zhiruo said: "We martial arts practitioners still have some strength."

Ye Qingchen tied the four sacks together and dragged them out by the rope ends.

Lin Zhiruo didn't want to sit idle and helped him push from behind. However, Ye Qingchen was very powerful, and Lin Zhiruo could hardly use any strength.

After a while, four sacks were delivered to the cave hall outside.

Ye Qingchen took out the earth fire cauldron and placed it on the ground.

At this time, the cauldron is in its original state, only the size of a human head.

Ye Qingchen said: "This cauldron fell into my hands, so I want to test it tonight and follow the example of the Xiong brothers to see what kind of treasure I can make."

Lin Zhiruo suddenly looked frightened and said in disbelief: "Are you... so you want to trick me into coming... to sacrifice to the tripod?"

Ye Qingchen smiled, stared at her and said, "What are you thinking about? Isn't it such a waste of natural resources to use such a beautiful girl to sacrifice the tripod?"

While talking, Xiong Youyi, who was still unconscious and covered in blood, had been pulled out of the sack.

"Who is this person?" Lin Zhiruo asked with a frown.

"This man was greedy for my aunt's property and wanted to hunt him down, but I intercepted him. He really deserves his punishment and does not deserve mercy. If Miss Zhiruo feels cruel, you can temporarily avoid him."

Lin Zhiruo hid far away and turned her back.

I heard Ye Qingchen's sputtering and clattering operations.

After a long time, she turned around and saw Ye Qingchen casting a spell towards the expanding cauldron.
