Chapter 9: Departure

"Yes, time flies," the girl whispered.

After that, both of them seemed unwilling to break the silence of the past few years, and only the sound of insects around them was exceptionally crisp.

Yun Ying, who had only come back to her senses in the girl's words for a long time, coughed awkwardly, and quickly changed the topic and asked, "I heard that the Seventh Mountain Leader is willing to accept you as a disciple?" After saying this, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and quietly glanced at the girl in his heart, and secretly said in his heart, Fortunately, the sky is relatively dark, otherwise it will be too big.

"Poof" But the girl seemed to see his embarrassment, and covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Yes, the head of the Seventh Mountain personally came to the Yun family and intended to accept me as a personal disciple, and promised that all the children of the Yun family's talented family could enter the seventh mountain to practice," the girl replied softly.

"Come here in person? I haven't heard of it, but why would he go on a trip for this kind of thing, with his eyes, there should be countless geniuses he has seen, right? Could it be because of Xue'er that you love the house and Wu?" Cloud Shadow's face was puzzled.

"Because of the clouds"

"Yunkong?" Yun Ying's eyes widened, and he looked at Yun Xue with a puzzled expression.

"What's the matter with him? Could it be that he proposed to the Seventh Mountain Leader to accept you as his own heir? Could it be that Yunkong treats you to Xue'er..."

"Idiot", before Yun Ying's words fell, Yun Xue gave him a big roll of his eyes, and said angrily: "What are you thinking about, the seventh mountain is in charge of accepting disciples, how can it be useful because of Yunkong's words, let alone a personal disciple."

Even if Yunkong's status in the Ninth Mountain is now in full swing, it doesn't have the ability to affect the Venerable of One Mountain. It is even more impossible to give that all those with outstanding talents in the Yun family can enter the seventh mountain to practice, and there is no specified standard for outstanding talents, which can be regarded as a great benefit to the Yun family.

"Then Xue'er, you said that because of the clouds, what is going on?"

"Because the ninth and seventh mountains are not the ninth and seventh mountains of the past," Yun Xue said slowly.

Everyone knows that Qingyu County is adjacent to the Desolate Star Sea, and across the Desolate Star Sea is the territory of the demon clan, although the sea area of the Desolate Star Sea is vast, but the demon clan will never give up invading Qingyu County because of a desolate star sea, just because the nine mountains across the Desolate Star Sea and Qingyu County are so frightened that the demon clan does not dare to act rashly.

"I know all this, but what does it mean that the seventh mountain and the ninth mountain are not the seventh and ninth mountains in the past?"

"Because countless years ago, the nine mountains had a unified name, Lingyun Mountain, at that time, the nine mountains were one, and the mountain lords were called the peak lords in the past, and the mountain lords, there was only one person, that was the nine peaks together, the real mountain lord of Lingyun Mountain"

"But three thousand years ago, the mountain lord of Lingyun Mountain suddenly disappeared, leaving no trace, so that the peak masters had to declare that the mountain lord was in retreat, and after hundreds of years of time, some people seemed to have forgotten that there was once such a mountain master. Each mountain has its own respect, and it has become the current independent nine mountains.

Yun Ying was stunned at this time, shocked by the news he had never heard before, and it took him a long time before he came back to his senses and said, "These are all told to you by the Lord of the Seventh Mountain?"

Yun Xue shook her head slowly, and her teeth opened lightly: "Grandpa told me."

"The head of the family, why did the head of the family tell you these things, is it related to the fact that the head of the seventh mountain personally came to the Yun family?" Yun Ying frowned, completely unable to understand the intricate relationship here.

"The Mountain Lord has been missing for too long, some people are restless and want to sit in that position, and the Mountain Lord of the Ninth Mountain is the one with the greatest ambition!" Yun Xue looked into the distance before she slowly spoke.

"But although the mountain lord has disappeared for so many years, there are still peak lords who believe that the mountain lord will return, and the seventh mountain lord is the one who holds this concept, so the seventh mountain and the ninth mountain have long been tense, but because the gap between the two mountains is not large, the rest of the mountain peaks have a neutral attitude, so they need external help."

"And the Xiahou family, one of the top ten families in Qingyu County, has joined the Ninth Mountain, and the Seventh Mountain and the Ninth Mountain are now using their own means to win over the support of the major families, so that they can suppress the other mountain to achieve their own goals, and the means of the Ninth Mountain to win over the Yun family is to cultivate Yunkong,

If Yunkong grows up and plays a pivotal role in the Yun family, it will be easy to help the ninth mountain, and the person chosen by the seventh mountain is me, so grandpa doesn't want me to stay in the Yun family, do you understand" The girl's soft words were like a heavy hammer hammer hammering into Yunying's heart.

"Whew"

Yun Ying exhaled deeply and said with a wry smile: "That's why the Lord of the Seventh Mountain will personally come to the door to collect Xue'er as a personal disciple, and the family doesn't want to see you stay in the Yun family because you are a stinky boy."

"Hmm" Yun Xue turned her head and stared into Yun Ying's eyes, as if she wanted to see herself clearly in his eyes.

Yunying was stared at by the girl all the time, and felt that the girl was a little wrong, and asked, "Xue'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Aunt Zhao told me a lot of things, many of which are related to you, so I decided to go to the Seventh Mountain, I hope that in the future, I can accompany you" The girl slowly raised her hand, as cool as jade, and gently put it on Yunying's face and whispered.

The boy could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart, and as soon as he reached out, he firmly hugged the girl in front of him into his arms.

"I'm sorry Xue'er, I know you could have had to bear so much, the battle between the two mountains is not so easy, let you get involved, I'm sorry. And your water spirit body, I know it's also my mother's doing, I'm sorry, Cher, and...."

Listening to the young man's incessant whisper in his ear, the corners of the girl's mouth raised a charming arc.

"Fool, why do you say so much I'm sorry, it's all my own choice, for you, it's pretty good" But the girl didn't say these words.

When the girl's figure was about to be unable to see clearly, Yun Ying finally couldn't help but shout at the back in the distance: "Xue'er, wait for me, I will definitely go to you, no one can stop me, the Yun family can't do it, the ninth mountain can't do it, no one can do it!"

"Well, I'll wait for you".

The girl's voice came from a distance, as if it was right in her ears.

Cloud Shadow exhaled deeply, gathered up his messy thoughts, and walked home.

The boy didn't know that at this moment, the faint flame in his heart had begun to burn.

Looking at the courtyard as usual, the lights of my mother's house were still on, Yun Ying cleared her throat, hung a smile, pushed open the courtyard door, and shouted, "Mother, I'm back"

There was no response in the house, Yun Ying pushed open the door suspiciously, and said in her heart, "It's so late, what about my mother and that cheap old man?"

Cloud Shadow knocked on the door, and called out again, "Mother?", but there was no response, Cloud Shadow pushed the door open, the candle flame flickered, and the empty room was still the same as before, only two letters were quietly placed on the table.
