Chapter 28: Yi Zixuan's Encounter

In the Stardust Building, Yi Chen took out the medicine hall deacon token that Qiu Ming gave him, casually glanced at it and put it away, his mind was not on the token, but looked at the pedestrians outside with doubts.

A group of 12 guards, dressed in the gray costumes of Qingyanlou, were patrolling intensively outside, and every suspicious and strange person they saw would come forward to interrogate them, and meticulously perform their duties.

Everyone's face was very serious, and the corners of their eyes did a good job of hiding the slightest trace of contempt, but it was difficult to hide the tiredness on their faces.

Five days may not seem like a long time, but it can't be said to be short, and for Starfall City today, this period of time is enough to bring a lot of changes.

Now the number of foreign cultivators who appeared in Starfall City is even larger, in order to calm the daily order in the city, all the defenses and patrols have been intensified, just on the way back to the Stardust Small Building from the Medicine Hall, Yi Chen has already seen a lot of small disputes caused by foreign cultivators.

Although among these foreign cultivators, many of them are below the realm of the Three Dans, and most of them are in the Heavenly Realm, but there are no shortage of people who hide their own aura, and occasionally there will be powerhouses of the realm of the Three Dans appearing in Yi Chen's perception.

"I didn't expect that in just five days, the situation in Starfall City has reached this point, it seems that it is indeed the same as Xiao Qian guessed, the forces outside are finally red-eyed and want to interfere in the development of this area of Starfall Land", silently pondered, Yi Chen's heart suddenly became vigilant.

However, the current situation is also causing the attention of the two forces to shift to the foreign cultivators, which is good news for Yi Chen.

But it also means that the uncertainties that affect their actions are beginning to increase, and he will not only need to change his plans at any time according to the situation, but also need to be more cautious when acting.

.....

"Brother, brother, your lovely and beautiful sister is back, haven't you missed me for so many days?"

Approaching dusk, a cheerful and sweet girl's voice sounded from outside the Stardust Building, interrupting Yi Chen's reading time.

Then I saw a purple mink with two waist-length pigtails, holding a purple mink in one hand, and Yi Zixuan holding several strings of rock sugar gourds and a few sugar people in the other hand.

The delicate and cute little face is a satisfied smile on the food, and the occasional flash of coquettishness reveals the innocence and childlike fun that should be there at this age.

Seeing Yi Zixuan's smile, Yi Chen couldn't help laughing, his heart was full of pity, but he said jokingly: "Hey, girl, how can your hair be combed like this, this is the ugliest I have ever seen."

"Hmph, stinky brother, as soon as you come back, you will talk about your lovely sister like this, I also brought you back a gift, I am very angry now, and I decided not to give it to you", Yi Zixuan raised her eyebrows, pursed her lips and turned her head to stop looking at Yi Chen, and muttered very arrogantly.

But in the next second, his eyes couldn't help but sneak a few glances at the indifferent Yichen, the slightly puffed cheeks and smart eyes were full of anticipation, which invisibly added a bit of cuteness.

Yi Chen naturally noticed Yi Zixuan's small movements, and couldn't help but beg in a low voice: "The girl is right, it's my brother's mistake, for the sake of me having such a lovely sister, you can forgive my brother."

Enjoying Yi Chen's performance very much, Yi Zixuan's little face was filled with a smile of victory, and then she trotted into Yi Chen's arms, and the rock sugar gourd and sugar man in her hand were handed directly to him, and a very delicate light black bracelet that had been worn for a long time shook with it, and the mood was overjoyed.

"It's still our girl who knows how to hurt me", smiled and took a string of rock sugar gourds, Yi Chen nodded and praised.

But he soon felt that something was wrong, and asked, "Girl, how can you have the money to buy rock sugar gourds?

"No, this is what I bought for me from a little brother I met just now", Yi Zixuan replied disapprerovingly, and her attention did not leave the thing in her hand at all.

She didn't notice the change in Yi Chen's face, she seemed to be full of curiosity, and still said to herself in Yi Chen's arms: "But that little brother is dressed so strangely, he still wears so much on such a hot day, and I don't know how he suffers, and although he is very good, he has a faceless mask on his face, and he almost scared me to death, what's wrong brother?"

It wasn't until she finished her words that she blinked her bright eyes and noticed Yi Chen's frowning brow.

Yi Chen smiled slightly, and asked Yi Zixuan again: "Girl, can you tell my brother about the little brother you met."

Having said that, the little dark cloud that appeared between the eyebrows did not disappear, and countless possibilities flashed in the chaotic heart.

The situation in Starfall City was already very complicated, and most of the cultivators who came here were not completely casual cultivators, but there must be many people with evil intentions among these people, and it could not be ruled out that they would stay in the city so peacefully.

What's more, although Yi Zixuan is young, people in this area of Starfall City also know that behind the Stardust Building is the Qingyanlou Medicine Hall, but anyone with a discerning eye can see the growth potential in her small body, and her future beauty will cause the adventure of people with bad intentions.

Feeling a little nervous in Yi Chen's words, Yi Zixuan no longer played her playful temperament, and told what happened with a serious face.

From Yi Zixuan's story, Yi Chen also learned that after she left the "Sister Chuxue" in the mouth of the two, in order to come back quickly, she chose a shortcut.

This is also her habit all along, people who live in this area know that she is Yi Chen's sister, and they also know that Xingchen Xiaolou has the support of the medicine hall behind her, so she has always been safe.

However, this time when passing through an alley, Yi Zixuan was blocked by a few foreign cultivators who were following.

"Girl, why are you so bold? Didn't my brother always tell you not to leave a crowded place?", hearing this, Yi Chen couldn't help but scold.

Yi Zixuan, who suddenly felt aggrieved, burst into tears, and hurriedly said: "I.... I just want to see you sooner."

Yi Chen suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and gently stroked Yi Zixuan's hair, while comforting softly.

It was at this time that the little brother mentioned by Yi Zixuan also appeared at the same time, and there was no need for the purple mink to take action and quickly put down these people with bad intentions.

According to Yi Zixuan, although the person who appeared to help her was wearing a black cloak and her face was covered by a faceless mask, it made her feel very cordial and her heart was full of trust.

What made her even more curious was that the faceless masked man was very kind to her, not only bought her delicious food, but also took her to play around the city.

"Brother, that little brother seems to regard me as his sister, he knows very well that Zixuan likes to eat rock sugar gourds and little sugar people, just like you and Sister Chu Xue and Fat Brother are as good as me, no, it's worse than you", Yi Zixuan's smile bloomed like a flower, full of joy and happiness.

couldn't help fiddling with the rock sugar gourd in his hand, Yi Zixuan's eyes were full of confusion, rubbed the little head of the purple mink, and whispered to himself: "But although that little brother is dressed very strangely, Zixuan always feels as if he has seen him somewhere, and he feels so kind, even Xiao Huan, who has always been very reluctant to strangers, is very intimate with him, and does not hate the smell of his body, but this is not right, Xiao Huan Ming has only seen him for the first time."

Yi Chen's brows wrinkled even tighter with Yi Zixuan's words, until she finished saying this sentence in a whisper, a thought suddenly popped up in her heart, looking at the purple mink lying in Yi Zixuan's arms, and she was so excited for a while.

"Could it be...."

The purple mink named Xiaophantom doesn't seem to have any great power, and it feels more cute, but only Yi Chen, who knows it well, knows that unless it is familiar with it, or someone who has been remembered by it for the smell, it will not let a stranger touch it at all, let alone a person who behaves strangely and suddenly appears, which is another reason why Yi Chen is relieved to let Yi Zixuan be alone.

"This is..."

Picking up the purple mink from Yi Zixuan's arms, Yi Chen noticed that there was a small rolled up note on its calf, which was hidden under the purple hair, and it was difficult to find it if he didn't look closely.

There is not much handwriting on the note taken down, only two "do not read", the remaining part is painted with a broken ring jade pendant, which looks about one-fifth, the jade pendant is covered with incomparably complex lines, very exquisite, and the portrait on the paper alone is like a real one.

What worries Yi Chen the most is the faint scent of ink emitted from the paper, which was obviously imported from the real mutilated jade pendant not long ago.

Seeing this jade pendant painting, especially the familiarity brought to him by those two words, made the excitement in his heart difficult to calm.

"Hey, isn't this what Aunt Qing gave to Zixuan?"

Yi Zixuan exclaimed in confusion when she saw the image on the paper, and quickly took out a small piece of the equally mutilated jade pendant from her neck, and kept gesturing with a pair of small hands.

"Girl, you don't leave the vicinity of the Stardust Building for half a month, it's best not to leave your brother's eyes, you know?"

Yi Chen told Yi Zixuan, who was still gesturing, but his eyes looked at the outside of the Xingchen Building, wanting to see the familiar back from the passers-by, but in the end he found nothing.
