A familiar voice sounded,

Ye Qingyao suddenly stood up unconsciously, looking in the direction where the voice came from with a happy smile on her face, and what appeared in front of her at this time was not the familiar explosive head, her face was not black, and her body was not a broken military robe, but a young, energetic, and neatly dressed young man.

"Who are you?" Ye Qingyao unconsciously took a step back and looked at Zhou Chen vigilantly, at this time her injuries had not yet recovered, and she could not fight at all.

"No, have you become so handsome? Don't be nervous, it's me, I just took the time to take a shower. ”

Zhou Chen touched his face and said jokingly with Ye Qingyao with a grin.

Ye Qingyao looked at the person in front of her who was so flamboyant, and the familiar voice, she was sure that this young man was Zhou Chen, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she quietly glanced at Zhou Chen, it turned out that he looked like this, and suddenly his heartbeat increased a little, thinking of the reaction when he heard Zhou Chen's voice just now, he couldn't help but feel a little shy in his heart, and his face flushed with a faint flush.

"The matter has been negotiated, except for the blood of the saints, you return the other treasures to them, and they are willing to let you go."

Zhou Chen looked at Ye Qingyao's face and said, although he was talking about business, his eyes were very improper, and he kept staring at Ye Qingyao, like a man and woman in love, as if he couldn't see enough.

Ye Qingyao also noticed Zhou Chen's burning gaze, lowered her head slightly, avoided Zhou Chen's gaze, and remembered what happened last night, her face was no longer flushed, but her whole face was hot and hot.

"You keep the essence blood of the saint, you give me the other treasures in the ring, I will go up and play a play with them, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Tianbao Pavilion, and besides, taking this healing medicine will have an obvious effect on the injuries of the strong people in the Yuanying Realm."

After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he handed Ye Qingyao a bottle of elixir, which was mainly aimed at the healing medicine of the powerhouses of the Yuanying Realm, which Zhou Chen bought from Yu Lingyun.

Ye Qingyao didn't hesitate and took it directly, she didn't know why she trusted Zhou Chen so inexplicably.

Except for the saint's essence blood, other things were not so important to Ye Qingyao, and he directly took out several treasures and pills from the ring, which were the same batch of bidding items at the auction that day, including a few platinum cards of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

Zhou Chen sorted out his things, put them in an empty ring, and picked up Ye Qingyao's broken black robe before, and smiled at Ye Qingyao: "Wait for me!" ”

Ye Qingyao looked at the back of the person who left again, and there was an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart, as if she was unwilling to let the back leave, she couldn't imagine that Zhou Chen not only did not betray herself, but really tried to help her get out of trouble, and complicated emotions came to her heart again, every time Zhou Chen returned or left, it would cause a drastic change in Ye Qingyao's mood.

Thundercloud Mountain.

The edge of a cliff in a minefield.

There were many powerhouses of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion standing, almost all the people in this round-up operation, Yu Lingyun, Mo Lao, and the Xuan Lao of the Yuan Infant Realm were all present.

"Elder Xuan, it has been ascertained that the thief is hiding under this canyon, and after Zhou Gongzi's news is confirmed, he can besiege and kill this person." Mo Lao said.

Xuan Lao stood beside Yu Lingyun and nodded slightly.

At this time, Zhou Chen climbed up, and after dusting off the ashes on his body, Zhou Chen walked towards Yu Lingyun and said, "It's just below, I've already made a mark." ”

Yu Lingyun smiled and nodded at Zhou Chen, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Gongzi Zhou." ”

"Elder Xuan, I'm sorry for you next."

Xuan Lao nodded slightly towards Yu Lingyun, and then jumped into the canyon, and soon after, there was a terrifying True Yuan fluctuation and explosion sound in the canyon, and after dozens of breaths, the sound disappeared, and Xuan Lao jumped onto the edge of the cliff again, holding a corpse in a black robe in his hand, the corpse was seriously damaged, and he couldn't see his face clearly.

"Miss, fortunately, the thief has been executed." Xuan Lao said lightly, and handed a ring to Yu Lingyun in his hand.

Yu Lingyun smiled and gently bowed her head, took the ring, and said, "Hard work! ”

Yu Lingyun stroked the ring with her fingers, checked the items, put them away, turned her head and said aloud to the people in the Tianbao Pavilion: "The thieves have been ambushed, the treasures have been recovered, this round-up operation has been a complete success, hard work, you will be compensated after you go back." ”

The people of Tianbao Pavilion cheered loudly, this round-up has been more than ten days, chasing thousands of miles, and still guarding the Thundercloud Mountains for many days, everyone is very tired, now it is finally over, you can go back, and there is also resource compensation, naturally I am happy in my heart.

"I can finally go back."

"In the past few days, I have not been worried for a moment because of this thunder."

"Thanks to Gongzi Zhou, we can go so smoothly this time."

"Yes, Zhou Gongzi is really amazing, in the middle of the foundation building realm, he is not afraid of thunder, a strong horse."

…

Zhou Chen was speechless when he heard these words, these people were really sold and still giving money to the people, Xuan Lao was one of Yu Lingyun's henchmen, Yu Lingyun had already explained to him, the corpse was prepared by Yu Lingyun for Mo Lao, and Zhou Chen put the broken black robe on the body of the dead corpse.

After performing this play, the outside world only knew that the thieves who destroyed the auction and stole the treasures had been ambushed and the treasures had been recovered, but they didn't know that the actual situation was that the black-robed man had been rescued by Zhou Chen.

"Gongzi Zhou, this matter is over, our Tianbao Pavilion will leave in about half an hour, does Gongzi want to come with us?"

Yu Lingyun seemed to be in a good mood, now that the treasure has been basically recovered, the matter of the thief has also been explained, and he has resumed the cooperative relationship with Zhou Chen, making up for the previous mistakes, and the haze in his heart has been swept away.

"I want to stay in the depths of the minefield for another day, and I won't leave with you." Zhou Chen said.

"Then we'll see you later." Yu Lingyun saluted slightly, and everyone in Tianbao Pavilion also saluted Zhou Chen, and Zhou Chen returned the salute one by one.

Looking at the departing Tianbao Pavilion people, Zhou Chen exhaled.

"It's finally over, it's time to go back."

Zhou Chen's mind appeared Ye Qingyao's appearance, and what he said was to go back to the bottom of the valley to find Ye Qingyao.

Ye Qingyao sat in the depths of the valley, just now she felt the fluctuations of the powerhouse of the Yuanying Realm outside, thinking that she was coming to her, at that moment, her nose suddenly felt sore, and she felt a faint pain in her chest, she thought that Zhou Chen had betrayed herself, and at that moment she felt extremely desperate and painful, tears kept rolling down, she was not a person who was afraid of death, she just felt the desolation of being betrayed.

Later, when she heard the explosion formed by the power of the Yuanying powerhouse not far away, she realized that the Yuanying powerhouse did not come to her, but released his power in the air.

"Zhou Chen..."Ye Qingyao has never been like this, she has always been cold as frost, not to mention the skin-to-skin relationship with men, and even those men have no chance to talk to her, and she has always been concerned about these worldly things, and there is only martial arts in her heart, since she met Zhou Chen, her heart began to ripple, began to suffer from gains and losses, sentimentality, I am afraid that even she doesn't know why, this emotion came so suddenly, so inexplicable.

"I'm back!" A gentle voice sounded from Ye Qingyao's ears.

Ye Qingyao seemed to rush towards Zhou Chen quickly as if she was uncontrollable, hugged him tightly, and submerged her whole head into Zhou Chen's chest, as if she was afraid that he would leave suddenly, this sudden change made Zhou Chen stunned, and then smiled slightly, feeling Ye Qingyao's faint body fragrance, Zhou Chen took a deep breath greedily, and reached out to hug Ye Qingyao, but Ye Qingyao quickly withdrew her hand and turned around directly to ignore Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen was completely confused by this changing situation, and stood there dumbfounded, his hands still in an embraced shape.

The two were speechless for a long time, and in the end, it was Zhou Chen who took the lead in breaking the embarrassment.

"That's... They're gone, and you're safe now. ”

"Hmm." Ye Qingyao turned her head, her face returned to her indifferent expression, and said, "I'm going to leave too." ”

Zhou Chen looked at Ye Qingyao blankly, looking at her cold eyes, Zhou Chen was a little panicked in his heart, for fear of losing something.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Chen asked anxiously.

"It's none of your business." At this time, Ye Qingyao's face was covered with frost, extremely indifferent, in fact, this was her normal state, and the way she looked when facing Zhou Chen was a gaffe for her.

"How can it have nothing to do with me, don't we have anything to do with each other?" Zhou Chen saw that Ye Qingyao had become like this, and his heart became even more anxious.

"Forget about yesterday." Ye Qingyao's tone was very cold.

"What are you talking about, how can you forget this kind of thing." Zhou Chen's emotions erupted uncontrollably and shouted hysterically.

"It's your business not to forget, it's none of my business." Ye Qingyao's voice became very loud, and she shouted angrily at Zhou Chen.

"Tell me, why is this all of a sudden?" Zhou Chen's eyes were already red at this time, and the bloodshot in his eyeballs exploded, as if blood was oozing.

"What if you can't forget, you and I are not from the same world, and we are destined to have no results." Ye Qingyao lowered her head and didn't look at Zhou Chen, and her tears fell directly to the ground.

"Then tell me where you're from? The Central Continent? The Seven Realms? The Ancient Realm? ”

A touch of surprise appeared on Ye Qingyao's face, Zhou Chen actually knew the Ancient Realm, and there were not many people in the Northern Regions who could know the Central Continent and the Seven Realms, but Zhou Chen would actually know the Ancient Realm, at this moment, Ye Qingyao felt that Zhou Chen's body might not be as simple as he thought.

"Do you want to be with me?" Ye Qingyao thought for a moment, exhaled lightly, and looked at Zhou Chen with gentle eyes.

Zhou Chen directly grabbed Ye Qingyao's hand, held it tightly in his hand, stared at Ye Qingyao with a firm gaze, his eyes shone with a slight ripple, and said in a firm voice:

"I, Zhou Chen, must be with Ye Qingyao! No one can stop it! If people stop me, I will kill people, and if the sky stops me, I will punish the sky! ”

Bang! In the sky, dark clouds rolled, and an incomparably huge muffled thunder sounded, as if the sky was angry.

Ye Qingyao hurriedly pressed her finger on Zhou Chen's lips and looked at him distressedly, her eyes were already full of tears at this time, Ye Qingyao tried hard to pretend to be indifferent, but looking at Zhou Chen, she really couldn't do it, the two hugged each other tightly, enjoying each other's breath and warmth.

"Zhou Chen, four years... I can only wait for you for four years, if you don't come to the ancient realm to find me in four years, then I'm afraid I will become someone else's wife, I can't stop all this, do you understand? Ye Qingyao sobbed and leaned on Zhou Chen's shoulder and said to him.

"Qingyao, you are my Zhou Chen's woman, no one can take you away from me, no one, I promise you, I will definitely go to the ancient realm to pick you up within four years, you must wait for me." Zhou Chen's eyes were blood-red, blood mixed with tears slid down the corners of his eyes, and some ancient strange patterns appeared in his pupils.

"Huh?" A voice sounded from within the Mixed Yuan Bead, and the person who made the sound was not Tianzun, but from within the Strange Gate.

"Your eyes? Zhou Chen, you..."Ye Qingyao looked at Zhou Chen's eyes in horror.

"Don't worry, this is the power of my bloodline, it will be fine in a while." Zhou Chen wiped the blood from the corners of his eyes, kissed Ye Qingyao's forehead, and said gently: "Qingyao, I'm still very weak now, but I will definitely become stronger, and I will definitely climb to the top of this martial arts!" Four years, you must wait for me! ”

"Well, I'll wait for you!" Ye Qingyao couldn't help but have a smile on her face, this smile had never appeared on her face, at this moment she felt incomparable happiness and joy, she used to scoff at these worldly things, and now she is greedily enjoying every moment of happiness.

"I'm leaving." Ye Qingyao hugged Zhou Chen's neck and kissed it deeply, after a few breaths, the two separated, Ye Qingyao touched Zhou Chen's face, took a deep look at the man in front of him, held back her tears, turned around and jumped resolutely, rose into the air, and disappeared directly from Zhou Chen's field of vision.

"Ancient Realm, Futu Mountain, Zhou Chen, I'll wait for you!" Ye Qingyao's voice echoed in the valley.

"Ancient Realm, Futu Mountain?" Zhou Chen looked in the direction where the voice came from and murmured softly.

"Teacher, do you know this Futu Mountain?" Zhou Chen immediately entered the Mixed Yuan Bead and eagerly asked Lie Tianzun.

"Hey, I know, I didn't expect this girl to be from Futu Mountain." Lie Tianzun shook his head, sighed, and said helplessly.

"Then can you tell us about this Futu Mountain?"

"I can't tell you, at least not now, boy, I'll tell you the truth, your current strength is not worthy of others at all, and you are not even worthy of understanding this Futu Mountain, if you understand, I am afraid that you will even be affected by the heart of martial arts." Lie Tianzun's expression was serious, and his expression was a little solemn.

"Teacher, just say something, even if Futu Mountain is a knife mountain and an oil pot, I am not afraid." Zhou Chen pleaded.

"I can only tell you that this Futu Mountain is the ancestral land of the Futu Ancient Clan, the Futu Ancient Clan is an extremely ancient race, even the ancient family of that Xuanyuan kid can't be compared to it, and you can't imagine its strength with your cognition. I don't know what this girl's identity is in the Futu Ancient Clan, if the identity is special, then ...... Hey, let's do it, if you can enter the Seven Realms through the Battle of the Hundred Kingdoms, then I'll tell you something about Futu Mountain, this is my bottom line, it's useless for you to beg me, if you really like that girl, you have to work hard, only when your strength reaches the point that even the Futu Gu clan can't despise you, you are worthy of saying to pick her up, understand? If you don't have the strength, what's the use of telling you everything? ”

Zhou Chen was silent, the fists in his hands clenched tightly, making a rattling sound.

"Strength, I'm too weak, I need strength! Teacher, I want to be stronger! ”

Zhou Chen felt that he was extremely weak at the moment, he used to feel that at this age, it was already good for him to reach the middle stage of the foundation building realm, even better than his peers, but how old is Ye Qingyao, and now he has entered the Yuan Ying Mirror, although the more difficult it is to improve, but at the same age, Ye Qingyao's realm is definitely much higher than Zhou Chen, this is the difference between the Central Continent and the Border Region, Zhou Chen realized that this is the real genius, what Xing Wutian and Zhao Wuji met before, even the broken water flow is nothing, Compared to those Tianjiao in the Central Continent, these people were like waste wood, and their previous vision was too narrow.

Ye Qingyao also understood this truth, so at first she didn't think that Zhou Chen, a monk from the border region, could come to the ancient realm one day, so she didn't have hope for the relationship between the two, but looking at Zhou Chen's unwavering appearance, she couldn't bear it, and just now she saw the mysterious lines in Zhou Chen's pupils, and realized that Zhou Chen's bloodline power seemed to be a little special, Ye Qingyao was very familiar with the bloodline power, and the ancient world's research and records on the bloodline power were very complete, but Zhou Chen's bloodline power made him feel very strange, Coupled with the ancient realm that Zhou Chen blurted out, Ye Qingyao realized that Zhou Chen's origin was probably not as ordinary as he thought, so he had a glimmer of hope for the future of the two, so he gave Zhou Chen a four-year promise.

Zhou Chen retracted his mind, jumped directly over the cliff wall, and climbed towards the top of the mountain.

There was still a day or so before Yunzhou's departure, and Zhou Chen planned to use it all to impact the second layer of the seven-turn thunder dragon body.

For a whole day, Zhou Chen was not sitting but lying on the top of the mountain, the power of thunder in the depths of the minefield was not only more powerful, but also ten times denser than the periphery, every time Zhou Chen was bombarded, people did not get up and another thunderbolt smashed on him, constantly being bombarded, there was no respite at all, the whole person was like a kite in a storm, with the bombardment of thunder constantly drifting, although Zhou Chen said that the cultivation was quite hard, but it was always a little casual, let it be, at this moment, He felt that what he was doing was simply not enough, far from enough.

On a mountain range, there stood a stunningly beautiful woman, with a trace of tears in her eyes, looking at the mountains with rolling thunderclouds in a daze.

Zhou Chen...... Will you come in four years? ”

…
