Under the four eyes, the old man couldn't help but sigh strangely, in the eyes of this kid, he couldn't see a trace of fear in his heart, which made him a little surprised, and that face was ...... He seems to have seen it somewhere.

Oh? interesting...... Ordinary people are either dead or crazy when they see me like this, why is this kid so calm. The gray-robed old man became curious about Ye Wu, and the killing intent in his eyes gradually faded.

Feeling the killing intent dissipate, Ye Wuyan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Boy, let me ask you, are you terrible about me?" The old man squinted his eyes slightly, staring at Ye Wu with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Afraid, why should I be afraid, give me a reason?" Ye Wu stood without restraint, and his words and demeanor did not have the slightest fear.

The old man became interested.

"Why aren't you afraid of me?"

"There are two things that people will be afraid of, one is the fear from strength, and the second is the fear from the unknown, what do you say you are afraid of?" Ye Wu said, his voice was neither humble nor arrogant.

"This—" The old man was speechless when he heard these words.

"If I'm stronger than you at this time, then your funny appearance is just grandstanding and ugly, and there's no other use, isn't it?" Ye Wu said word by word, word by word, he continued, "If I am stronger than you, then will you start to guess my identity in your heart, but when you finally guess to no avail, won't you be afraid in your heart?"

Ye Wu's every word slammed into the old man's heart like a bell, and a storm vibrated in his heart, and for a while, the old man was shaken.

"What do you think is fear, if you are reasonable, I will not only not kill you, but also give you a great creation!" The old man's eyes flashed with a hint of anticipation.

"True fear is channelled from the deepest part of the person, not from shock. Ye Wu said, thinking about it.

Wait...... Maybe you can use the spirit world to wipe him out......

"Can you enter my spiritual world?" he said.

The old man was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes." ”

"Come on. Ye Wu looked at the old man, his deep eyes were like a pool of water.

Relying on his own cultivation, the old man stretched out his index finger and put it on Ye Wu's forehead, brushing, only to see the surrounding scenery several times, and when he came back to his senses again, he was already in a strange place.

It was a dimly lit room, filled with mannequins, and the old man was in the center of the mannequin puppet, stared at by the mannequin dolls.

"This ......" the old man looked at these puppets, for some reason he felt a little uncomfortable, he stood up, waved his sleeves, and wanted to cast a spell to open the door, but. Surprisingly, the door didn't open.

'The spell failed?' the old man frowned, and he walked to the door and opened it, and it was pitch black inside.

'What's inside?' thought the old man and left the room, but when he reached the other room he was shocked to find that the other room was exactly the same as his original room.

The old man turned around, the door to return was long gone, replaced by a stone wall, and he frowned, and passed through the mannequin to the next room, the layout of which remained the same as before, without any change.

"Is this the fear you are talking about?" the old man snorted coldly and continued to the next room, but when he entered the next room, the dim light went out instantly, and the old man's eyes were dark, and he couldn't see anything, but heard a strange creaking sound in the dark.

'What!' the old man panicked, and with all his might, he wanted to cast a spell.

In the real world, Ye Wuzhi vomited a mouthful of blood, his brain seemed to have been struck by thunder, buzzing, and the pain was unbearable.

"The monk is really not ordinary......" he thought.

In a moment, the lights came on, and the room was still the same as before, except for the missing figure.

"One less. The old man was surprised, combined with the creaking sound he had heard before, he had guessed a little, pushed open the door and came to the next room, this room was generally the same layout as the previous one, only two dolls were missing, he continued to walk, and the dolls became fewer and fewer.

"This is the last one. The old man stood in front of the door and looked back at the lonely puppets in the room, "Where will they go?"

With this question in mind, he pushed open the door, and in front of him, as he had been at the beginning, the dolls sat quietly in their positions, staring at the empty space in the center, the lights in the room flickering, and the dim light shining on the dolls' faces, causing the expressions on their empty faces to change.

The old man walked to the door, holding the doorknob with some hesitation.

"Will the puppet behind him move, and what's going on outside the door?" his mind was full of thoughts, and he sent a chill down his spine, and he pushed the door open, and on the other end of the door was a room that was unique, and he closed the door, but this time the door behind him did not disappear.

"Didn't go away. The old man touched the doorknob behind him, and out of curiosity he pushed the door open, only to see a mirror on the other side of the door, in which everything in the room was reflected.

"Mirrors. The old man looked at the mirror, suddenly the light flickered, turned on and off, dozens of clicks sounded, the scene in the mirror changed greatly, only to see those puppets one by one turned around and looked at the old man in the mirror in a very strange posture, the old man's body trembled, he was afraid.

"Let's go. Ye Wu snapped his fingers and woke up the old man.

The old man's eyes were hollow, and he was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly, and at the same time muttered in his mouth: "Yes, why didn't I figure it out, it turns out that this is the root of 'fear', it really wakes up the dreamer!

"The old man has been cultivating the ghost path for more than 280 years, and he thinks that he has penetrated all the 'fears' in this world, so he turned to bury his head here and rested, and the result is ...... Alas...... I never expected it! In the past two hundred and eighty years, I have only wandered and groped in the lowest level of 'fear'...... Xiaoyou has such a deep insight into 'fear' at a young age, which really makes the old man admire, admire, admire. The old man changed his previous attitude and bowed his hand to Ye Wu.

Ye Wu let go of the hand that was pressing on Elevata.

Then I saw the old man wave his sleeves, and his face changed suddenly, turning into a middle-aged man with gray hair and a little old, although there were many traces left by the years on his face, but even this could not hide his heroic demeanor when he was young.

At this time, the old man was looking Ye Wu up and down carefully, but it didn't matter, the old man's face changed three times in an instant, from the novelty at the beginning to the doubt, and finally returned to calm.

This process was very short, and it only took a moment's effort, but in Ye Wu's eyes, he couldn't help but sigh, and secretly said in his heart that this immortal cultivator's moodiness really didn't blow it out.

"Your mother...... What's your name?" the old man asked suddenly.

Ye Wu is not clear.

"My father Ye Dai, my mother Murong Clan, what's the matter, does the Taoist have something to do with my parents?"

"Murong ......" After the old man muttered these words in his mouth and repeated a few words, he immediately looked at Ye Wu and smiled: "No...... To know is to recognize the wrong person. ”

Ye Wu looked at this person, and for some reason, the old man's smile fell into his eyes so sad.

"Okay, Xiaoyou, meeting is fate, I have a jade slip here, you take it, I will stay in this Tiannan for a hundred years, in this hundred years, you can crush this jade slip at any time and let me help you do something, I will definitely try my best to do it, okay, it's not too early, I'll send you up." The old man said so, and handed a thing similar to a bamboo slip in his hand to Ye Wu.

Ye Wu took the jade slip, and then he only felt that his body was suddenly light, and his consciousness gradually began to blur.

——————————————

After sending Ye Wu away, the old man's face changed from before, and became extremely dignified, he put his hands behind his back, his eyes looked straight ahead, and after a long time, he sighed and said leisurely: "Wan'er, how long are you going to hide from me?"

As soon as the old man's voice fell, he saw that behind him, the shadow of a woman was revealed, this woman was upright, her complexion was as white as jade without a trace of flaws, her face was beautiful, her figure was slender, and her curves were beautiful, who was this person? It turned out to be the mother of Ye Cheng, the original owner of Ye Wu's body, Murong Clan.

The old man didn't look back, and the woman didn't ask anything, so the two stood like this for a long time.

"Is he your son?" he said after a long time.

The woman just nodded slightly, but did not speak.

Although it was expected, the old man's heart couldn't help but tingle, and he laughed dumbly.

"Your child...... It's so big, it really looks a little similar to you, and the personality is also with you... That... How are you doing?" he took a deep breath and forced himself to cheer up.

"I knew that you were a member of the ghost clan, I would never have fallen in love with you in the first place, and I brought you here, and this place would not have been attacked by your ghost clan and become what it is today......" The woman muttered to herself without answering the old man's words.

When the old man heard this, he sighed again, and then said as if he was a little self-deprecating: "Alas...... As the young patriarch of the ghost clan, I'm ...... Let's just pass the past...... Don't mention it again, I have nothing to do with the ghost clan since that time, and I deserve it, I deceived you, and I was deceived, betrayed, and hunted down by the clansmen, and fell into hiding like today. ”

At this point, the two of them returned to the point where they had nothing to say before.

"Your son...... Do you know that the meridians in the body are missing? I mean...... If you want, I can use the secret method to use my meridians to complete him, teach him to cultivate, with his rich combat experience and understanding of "fear", he can definitely go better than us in the Dao system......" His voice was very slow, very low, and very gentle, without the attitude of treating Ye Wu like Ye Wu before, but with a touch of pleading charm, he was begging for forgiveness.

The woman muttered, "Are the meridians missing......?" After a hundred years of cultivation, haven't we been able to escape birth, old age, sickness and death, and the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao?"

"That's it, I also see it, this time is the last time I will see you in this capacity, my dantian has been destroyed, and my cultivation has almost dispersed until today, you and I ...... So be it. The woman said.

Immediately afterward, her appearance changed for a while, returning to the previous appearance of her thirties, and she thought about walking away and disappeared into the darkness.

——————————————

"Young Master?"

A familiar shout sounded in his ears, and Ye Wu opened his eyes.

"Great. Seeing this, Ye Ling couldn't help but hug her, but then she reacted, hurriedly let go of her hand, and kept her distance from Ye Wu, she lowered her head, and her face was flushed.

Feeling the residual heat in his chest, Ye Wu opened his mouth and asked, "How long have I been in a coma?"

"You were in a coma for an afternoon, and we were afraid that we would meet those demon beasts when we returned the same way with the young master, so we camped on the edge of the cliff. Ye Ming replied.

Ye Wu looked at the outside of the tent, at this time, it was already black outside, and he couldn't see his five fingers, seeing this, Ye Wu could only shake his head helplessly and said, "Alas...... Forget it, although it's only two o'clock, it's already dark, let's do this today, you're all tired, hurry up and rest, we'll set off in a few days. ”
