A familiar flash of golden light flashed, and the golden leaves and transparent beads disappeared one after another.

Chen Cheng raised his hand and grabbed at the corpse, and a ball of light the size of an egg with flames burning outside floated out.

"Hey, it's rare to see souls wrapped in flames."

When his finger touched the ball of light, the ball of light disappeared instantly, and the flames burning outside did not make him feel any temperature.

"Ding, get fuel 4964."

"It's a pity that the soul of the cloud beast can't be absorbed." Glancing at the large sea of bright red clouds not far from the pier, he sighed.

As for the souls of those sailors, they have sunk to the bottom of the sea and are not worth salvaging.

The Adventure quickly sailed over from the docks, but fortunately, the ship was small enough not to be targeted by the Cloud Pirates.

Chen Cheng took out the purple shadow shell from his arms, and with a "click", the image of the head was recorded inside the shell.

"On board" Yiyi operated the boat with a flick of its tail, and the hull of the boat was firmly docked next to the plank.

……

"Master Yi, I really love my apprentice like a son, and I use such a great credit to pave the way for my apprentice." Mayor Ma stood in front of Ivan with a compliment.

"I have long heard that you love this apprentice very much, and today I see that it is indeed the case." He didn't notice Ivan's depressed expression when he patted his ass.

At this time, the Adventure had already docked, and after seeing Chen Cheng get off the boat, he immediately went straight to Chen Cheng. How can a compliment only compliment be a compliment to the main messenger, and the beneficiary also needs a compliment.

"Haha, Master Xiao Chen is mighty, and he solved that cloud thief with one sword. Don't worry, I'll definitely report the fact that you killed that monster to the Alliance, and congratulate you on your successful promotion in advance. He congratulated Chen Cheng for a while, but Chen Cheng felt uncomfortable, after all, everyone present knew what was going on.

"Then thank Mayor Ma for his support, I still have something to say with the master, and we will go back first." Although he was a little uncomfortable, he still replied with a few words.

After seeing the three of them leave, Mayor Ma said to the leather-clad men behind him: "Send the video back to the headquarters, and don't mention today's incident to outsiders." ”

"Ivan, it seems that you really can't get out of Fenyun Island......"

The atmosphere on the road was a little dull, and there was still not a single pedestrian on the street, and it was not until the three of them returned to the inner hall of the martial arts hall that the atmosphere eased somewhat.

Ivan glanced at his apprentice and sighed in a low voice, "Want to know? ”

"It's a little curious, if the master doesn't want to say it, then don't say it."

"Well, next time you say that, take the curiosity from your face."

Chen Cheng was a little embarrassed by what he said, and reached out and scratched his hair.

"Well, where do you start?" After a moment of silence, the master spoke again, and a deep voice echoed in the inner hall.

"Do you know how many stages there are in kendo?"

"Five, Foundation, Steel Chopping, Sword Qi Slashing, Sword Qi Thunder Sound, Sword Qi Condensation."

"Yes, then do you know how your master and I broke through the sword qi slashing stage?"

"I used the Black Book, and everything I am experiencing now is due to the Black Book." Without waiting for Chen Cheng to speak, Ivan continued.

"Nineteen years ago, when Yiyi was still a small person, our martial arts hall was not here. It's a country town, and I'm a swordsman at the steel-cutting stage who has a decent life. ”

"Until the revelation of my possession of the black book, what I didn't expect the most was that the first person to do it was my eldest apprentice Cross"

"He colluded with the cloud thieves to kill the entire town, including my wife and son."

"I used my life and black calligraphy to successfully comprehend the sword intent and break through to the realm of sword qi slashing, and broke through with Yiyi and Wuge swords."

"We grabbed a boat and escaped, but I was unconscious and drifted all the way here, and it was the old mayor of this town who saved us."

"But my injuries are too serious, I don't want to die, what if I die my daughter? What about my hatred? Ivan's hoarse roar echoed through the inner hall.

"I made another deal with the Black Book, I used my soul as collateral, and I couldn't leave Fenyun Island for the rest of my life, in exchange for me to recover." After he calmed down, he continued to say what happened next.

Chen Yan roared as if the master was venting, and looked at him in a daze. This old man, who should have been in his prime, dragged his drooping old body, was imprisoned on an island, and watched his enemies roam the sea of clouds.

And he has the ability to divide the sea with a sword, but he can't do anything about it, and this sense of powerlessness is the reason for his anger.

"It's a gaffe, you two go back, leave me alone here quietly" The master sat weakly in the main seat, waved his hand to the two, and there was an unspeakable sadness in his tone.

Chen Cheng was still about to say something, but he was pulled out of the inner hall by Yiyi beside him.

"Don't comfort Daddy, let him stay by himself for a while." The senior sister glanced at the master, turned her head and walked out of the inner courtyard.

He looked back at his master, and in the inner hall, where the sun did not shine, he sat alone in the dark, adding fuel to the anger in his heart.

"Alas," he sighed and chased in the direction of his senior sister.

……

"Doesn't it seem strange that it's the first time I've seen such a daddy?" Sensing the movement behind him, Yi Yi asked without replying.

"Actually, when Daddy first came to Fenyun Island, it was even worse than now, and he either lost his temper every day, or locked himself in his room and didn't come out."

"Thanks to Daddy's force, I haven't been bullied here, but I still don't like this place, it's like a prison for me, locking Daddy and locking me."

"When I was very young, I dreamed every night of the tragedy of that night, with the scorching flames that set fire to half the town, the sound of screams and swords clashing everywhere, and I witnessed the stabbing of my mother and brother to death." Yiyi stretched out her hand to wipe away a few tears that suddenly appeared, so that the junior brother behind her would not see it.

"I've been like this for a year, and as for the next step, it's a penance to practice swordsmanship, and at that time, there was no martial arts gym, and I was the only hope."

"It's quite easy in the early stage, I took five years from basic training to the peak of steel cutting" Speaking of this, Yiyi paused, turned his head and winked at his junior brother, looking proud.

"Sister Yiyi is unparalleled in the world" Chen Cheng liked the proud little expression of her senior sister very much, and wanted to reach over and pinch two handfuls.

"But now I'm still at the pinnacle of steel cutting, and it's stuck with me for thirteen years." Stretched out his hand to knock off his junior brother's claws, and rewarded him with a big white eye.

"Is it because you can't condense the sword intent?" He rubbed the palm that had been knocked off and looked at his senior sister with wide eyes.

"I guessed quite accurately, probably because my heart is not quiet."

"Oh, it looks like I'm going to work hard, and strive to let Sister Yiyi step into the sword qi realm as soon as possible, and then go on a trip with me."

"Okay, don't think senior sister is in the way when the time comes." Yi Yi grabbed Chen Yan, and the two walked back to Yi Yi's small courtyard side by side.
