Villain, be good! I'm here to give birth to a baby [Quick Wear]

There was nothing wrong with what Jiang Wan'er said. According to Ruan Baiyu and Song Huaishu, it was indeed a strange phenomenon that occurred in the center of the lake that caused the monsters to disappear mysteriously.

As for those sect disciples who were not found, nine out of ten of them were killed. After all, those monsters were of very high rank, and it was normal that those disciples in the foundation-building stage could not cope with them.

It’s just that these people disappeared too cleanly, without even a body left behind. Just like the news that had been sent back to the sect through spiritual messages before, they all disappeared mysteriously.

So many disciples of the sect disappeared at once, and even some important team leaders disappeared. Except for cultivators with cultivation level above the Golden Core Stage, no one else escaped.

This is no longer a trivial matter.

They all had to rush back to the sect to report the matter, and Lin Yan'er also had to go back to the sect first. She wanted to inform her master about the loss of her Qingyin Bell.

She threw the steamed buns back to the small courtyard, gave him a pile of steamed buns, and told him to stay there quietly and not walk around.

……

cabinet.

Lin Yan'er knelt on the ground and told everyone everything she had seen and heard in Yong'an Town, concealing only those fragments of memory related to "Song Ji".

The elders looked at each other for a while and then let her leave.

Then he called Ruan Baiyu and Song Huaishu who were waiting outside, and asked them to go in and report the situation.

Lin Yan'er did not rush to leave. Instead, she went to her master's residence and waited for her master to return from the cabinet.

She didn't know how long it had been before she saw Jiang Yingxue.

She immediately bent down and said, "Master, I activated the formation as you said, but I didn't find the person you asked me to find, and the Qingyin Bell is nowhere to be found."

Jiang Yingxue walked in and closed the door.

"What about Ruan Baiyu and Song Huaishu? Are they behaving unusually?"

Lin Yan'er shook her head and said truthfully, "There is a layer of white fog outside the mountain. You need to pass through the fog to enter the mountain. As soon as I entered, I lost contact with the people in the sect. Only that idiot followed me and did not disappear."

"He can see clearly in the white fog, and it doesn't seem like his vision is blocked. Moreover, the magic weapon that my disciple found after entering the bottom of the lake is not blocked by the black fog surrounding it."

"Ruan Baiyu and Song Huaishu did not behave in any unusual manner during this period. On the contrary, the person named Li Qingchen from Lingyun Sect spoke suspiciously. He even mentioned his master Lin Qingbai and said that he praised his disciple..."

Having said this, she paused.

Jiang Yingxue didn't react. She poured a glass of water and said calmly, "Ignore him."

Lin Yan'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she tried to ask, "Master, are you and the Grand Elder of Lingyun Sect..."

"Unfamiliar."

Jiang Yingxue directly rejected her words.

Lin Yan'er thought about the memories she had seen and knew that her master was lying, but she would not expose her directly. She could only silently suppress the doubts in her heart.

"The Qingyin Bell is not important. What's important is the special thousand-year-old mushroom that I asked you to find. Have you found it?" Jiang Yingxue asked back.

Lin Yan'er took out her storage bag and said to her, "Here are all the thousand-year-old mushrooms that I have seen in that place. I have picked them all. Master, please see if there is the thousand-year-old mushroom you need."

Jiang Yingxue took the storage bag.

The storage bag looks small, but it can hold a lot of things. It is a spiritual tool for storing items and has a large space inside.

Jiang Yingxue just opened it, took a look, and then threw the storage bag back to her.

"neither."

"If you have nothing to do now, go look for it again. Whether it's the Qingyin Bell or the Wannian Mushroom, you must find that special Wannian Mushroom for me!"

She spoke in a serious tone, obviously that thing was very important.

"Yes, Master."

Lin Yan'er lowered her head respectfully. She thought for a moment and took out something from her arms. It was the magic weapon she found at the bottom of the lake.

She presented the bell and explained, "Master, this is the magic weapon I found at the bottom of the lake. It was wrapped in black mist, but the black mist gradually dissipated after I took it away. I don't know its specific use, so please check it out, Master."

Jiang Yingxue was about to touch it when she felt a burning pain from her fingertips, causing her to reflexively withdraw her hand.

"Is there any demonic energy on it?"

She rubbed her thumb over her index finger, and the burning pain immediately disappeared.

Lin Yan'er guessed, "Maybe he has been in the black fog for a long time and has been contaminated by the evil spirit contained in the black fog?"

But she was not hurt by the evil energy on the bell, and didn't understand why her master was hurt.

"This is a magic weapon, so you'd better use it with caution." Jiang Yingxue didn't touch the bell again, and said with a hint of disdain, "The aura on it is disgusting, don't let it lead you astray."

Lin Yaner: "Yes, I will pay attention to it."

Lin Yaner: "But Master, so many of my fellow disciples and sisters have disappeared... What exactly is that place? How did it appear?"

She felt that her master should know, otherwise how could he know where the secret cave was and let her go in to activate the formation.

Jiang Yingxue said slowly, "Do you know where the battle between the immortals and Song Ji took place?"

Lin Yaner shook her head. In that battle, almost all the True Immortals were annihilated, the immortals were seriously injured, the immortal cultivation world suffered heavy losses, and many sect leaders unfortunately passed away... The leader of the Fengling Sect passed away in this battle.

Because of the heavy casualties, and the fact that the battle seemed to hide some major secret, those who knew about the battle kept it secret and only announced to the outside world that Song Ji was dead and the world of immortal cultivation was at peace.

As for whether the demon cultivator protected by Song Ji was okay, no clear answer was given, so many people believed that the demon cultivator escaped under the cover of Song Ji.

But fortunately, the demon cultivator was of low level, and without Song Ji, he couldn't cause any trouble at all, and the discussion gradually died down.

"The formation I asked you to open can reveal the place where all the immortals died in the past."

"Because the war that year involved sensitive issues related to the Demonic Abyss, and because many immortals died, that place became a tomb for all the immortals. Naturally, it is filled with rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and many natural treasures grow there. For example, in the lake you saw, there are many magic weapons left behind by the immortals..."

"In order to prevent greed and to prevent the truth of the battle from leaking out, the remaining immortals worked together to hide that place with a formation. However, as time went by, that hidden place actually nurtured a lot of monsters, especially in the lake. I don't know what kind of monster was raised there."

"The strange phenomenon you saw in the lake should be because someone closed the formation and sealed the area again, so the monsters disappeared along with it."

"As for the missing sect disciples... maybe they were killed. After all, those monsters are quite powerful. It is impossible for them not to notice your intrusion. It is normal for them to want to eat you."

Jiang Yingxue finished her words and put down the teacup.

After all, that place is where many immortals died. If those monsters are lucky, they might even be able to eat the corpses of the immortals. Even if it is only a small part, it is enough for them to transform from an ordinary monster into a powerful monster.

"But Master... since you know that the monsters here are dangerous, why did you let me open the formation?" Lin Yan'er asked puzzledly, "This is obviously not the right time. You have caused so many people to lose their lives by doing this. Don't you think--"

"Are you condemning my behavior as inappropriate?"

"No, Master, I don't mean that!"

Lin Yaner knelt down immediately. She really had no intention of condemning him.

Jiang Yingxue sat there, quietly looking at Lin Yan'er who was kneeling there, and did not rush to ask her to stand up.

Lin Yan'er knew that her slip of the tongue had displeased her master, so she knelt there and dared not move.

Three hours later.

Lin Yan'er felt a little numb from kneeling, and her stomach felt a little uncomfortable, but she had to continue kneeling until Jiang Yingxue said nothing.

At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

"Master, would you like to have dinner?"

People who practice Taoism do not have strong appetites, and they can go without food or drink for several months without any problems. However, they still lead a normal life. If they are in a bad mood or busy with work, they may not eat or drink for a long time. Therefore, someone will always come to ask before preparing a meal.

Jiang Yingxue said calmly: "Prepare some."

"Yes, Sect Master."

The man took his leave.

Lin Yan'er was still kneeling inside, her lips were dry. She rubbed her waist uncomfortably, but quickly withdrew her hand and knelt down obediently.

The master usually dotes on her, but if he gets really angry he will punish her and won't let her act like a spoiled brat all the time.

Jiang Yingxue caught a glimpse of Lin Yan'er rubbing her waist, took a sip of water and said, "Come over and sit for a while."

"Thank you, Master."

Just as Lin Yan'er was about to get up, her feet became numb and weak, and she almost fell. Fortunately, she steadied herself in time and avoided falling in front of her master.

As soon as she sat down, she heard the master's voice.

"Do you have a hidden illness or are you injured somewhere? How come you can't kneel for even a moment? Your body is so weak. If you are sick, you must not hide your illness and avoid seeing a doctor. Don't delay treatment just because the medicine is bitter."

It was Jiang Yingxue who cared about her.

Jiang Yingxue knew that the child she had raised had been spoiled since childhood and was extremely prone to illness. He would have a high fever if he caught a slight cold.

But every time the child was sick, he didn't like to take medicine. He would make a fuss and refuse to drink it. He would curl up in her arms and cry and say he was in pain. His little face was flushed red, but he still had a tantrum.

"Thank you for your concern, Master. I am fine. I may be a little tired because I haven't had enough sleep recently."

Lin Yan'er lied without changing her expression, but her fingers were clenched tightly together and hidden under the table, looking a little uneasy.

"Then you should go back and rest early, don't hurt your body, okay?"

"Yes, Master."

The two of them had a brief exchange and Jiang Yingxue didn't ask any more questions. She didn't really pry into Lin Yaner's private affairs and felt it was normal for children to have their own secrets when they grow up.

Jiang Yingxue poured her a cup of tea and said, "Have dinner with me later before going back. We haven't eaten together for a long time."

Lin Yaner nodded and agreed.

Soon, the door opened, and one person after another brought dishes and placed them on the table. They were all delicious dishes with good looks, aroma and flavor, but Lin Yan'er didn't seem to have much appetite.

After those people left, Jiang Yingxue picked up a piece of fish meat for Lin Yaner with chopsticks and said with a smile: "I remember that when you were a child, you loved eating fish, but you hated the fish bones inside. You always asked me to pick out the fish bones before you would eat it. If I didn't help you pick out the bones, you would make a fuss. You had a bad temper."

"This piece of fish has no bones. Try it."

Lin Yan'er looked at the fish in the bowl, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a little fish and tasted it, frowned slightly, and felt a little sour nausea in her throat, but she suppressed it forcefully.

She forced a smile and said, "Yeah, it's delicious."

Seeing that she didn't eat much, Jiang Yingxue asked, "Is the food not good enough? Why did you only eat so little?"

Lin Yaner explained: "I just don't like eating fish recently. It has nothing to do with my cooking skills."

"Don't like it anymore?" Jiang Yingxue didn't think much about it. She picked a piece of braised pork and put it in Lin Yaner's bowl. "Then try this."

She knew that Lin Yan'er was picky about food and would not eat this or that at other times, but she couldn't just eat vegetarian food; she had to eat it with meat.

"Thank you, Master."

Lin Yan'er looked at the braised pork in the bowl and felt sick to her stomach. She was struggling to find an excuse to avoid it when she found that Jiang Yingxue had picked up another piece of mutton for her.

"You need to take good care of your body. You are not a child anymore. You need to change your picky eating habits."

After Jiang Yingxue finished speaking, she started eating as well. The taste was indeed the same and there was nothing wrong with it.

But Lin Yan'er was reluctant to eat. She looked at the food in the bowl with difficulty and tried to find an excuse: "Master, I actually--"

"Okay, stop making so many excuses. I just asked you to eat some food, not to swallow poison. Why are you making excuses?" Jiang Yingxue noticed something strange, but didn't think too much about it.

Lin Yan'er's words were stuck in her stomach and she couldn't utter them. She picked up the chopsticks and tried to eat it, but she vomited.

Forget about eating, she couldn't stop vomiting.

Jiang Yingxue was also startled by her sudden vomiting and looked at her in surprise.

Lin Yan'er originally wanted to cover her belly, but when she remembered that her master was still watching her, she put her hand on her chest instead of her belly.

After vomiting, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and explained to Jiang Yingxue: "Master, I just have anorexia. It may be because I didn't sleep well these days, or it may be because I..."

"you are pregnant?"

Jiang Yingxue's eyes fell on Lin Yan'er's abdomen and asked in disbelief.

Lin Yan'er quickly covered it with her hands and shook her head to deny it.

"No, no, no, how could I be pregnant? Master, you think too much. I just have some indigestion, so my belly looks a little bloated. I can't be pregnant. I won't be pregnant."

However, Jiang Yingxue still asked: "When did you get pregnant? Whose child is that in your belly? Is it the child of that idiot you picked up?"

When asking these questions, Jiang Yingxue's tone became heavier each time, and the last sentence was almost a stern question.

Lin Yaner knelt down again and tried to cover up: "Master, I am really not pregnant. I just feel a little unwell. I will be fine in a few days."

She must not let the master find out that she was pregnant! If the master found out, she would be finished!
