Bab 337: Chapter 338: Yunshan was plotted.

Chapter 338: Yunshan was plotted.

Deep in Yunlan Mountain, under Yunyun's guidance, Xiao Se held her and landed in front of a stone gate covered by dense forests.

"My teacher is in seclusion here." Yun Yun pointed to the stone gate.

Xiao Se nodded, and while opening his eyes of clairvoyance, he quietly released the soul power of a seventh-grade peak alchemist. In the innermost space of the stone chamber, an old man with white hair and a youthful face, whose skin was as white as warm jade, sat cross-legged. His aura was deep and restrained, and he had reached the level of a one-star Dou Zong.

"It seems that we are late. Your teacher has already broken through to the Dou Zong level. If nothing unexpected happens, he must have taken the elixir from the Soul Palace." Xiao Se shrugged slightly.

Hearing this, Yun Yun's face changed, and she made a few strange hand seals with her hands. With the sound of a stone mill, the stone door glowed with green light, and then slowly opened. Yun Yun walked in quickly. Xiao Se smiled helplessly and followed him in. Although Yun Shan had taken the Soul Palace's Breaking Sect Pill, he had not been affected by the Soul Palace yet, and his temperament had not changed. Perhaps he could be saved.

"Yun'er, why are you here?" Yunshan, who had just broken through to the Dou Zong level, was obviously in a good mood. He slowly opened his eyes and asked with a smile.

"Teacher, have you come into contact with the Soul Palace?" Yun Yun asked anxiously.

Hearing this, Yunshan frowned: "Yun'er, who told you this?"

Yun Yun turned around and looked at Xiao Se behind her.

Following Yun Yun's gaze, Yun Shan was shocked and his brows furrowed. With his strength as a Dou Zong master, he didn't notice that there was another person there.

"Your Excellency?"

Xiao Se smiled faintly. Although Yun Shan's cultivation was only one star lower than his, Xiao Se possessed the Guiyuan Soul Technique, which could completely hide his aura. As long as he didn't want to, unless the other party's soul power was stronger than his, he couldn't find it. Even if he could find it, he couldn't detect his exact cultivation. He would be like the two gatekeeper disciples of Yunlan Sect, unable to feel the existence of Dou Qi in Xiao Se's body.

"Junior Xiao Se, I'm Yun'er's boyfriend, nice to meet you, Senior Yunshan." Xiao Se bowed. As he spoke, he no longer concealed his aura, his Dou Zong aura was visible.

"This aura... is that of a Dou Zong expert." Yunshan was shocked again. He didn't expect that in the entire Jia Ma Empire, there was another Dou Zong expert beside him. Moreover, the other party's aura was only stronger than his. If nothing unexpected happened, his strength would be at least a two-star Dou Zong.

"Yun'er, is this young man Xiao Se your boyfriend?" Yun Shan was a little excited at the moment, and even forgot about what Yun Yun had just mentioned about the Soul Palace. If the Yunlan Sect could gain another Dou Zong, then the restoration of the glory of the ancestors would be just around the corner.

Hearing this, she glanced at Xiao Se, blushed, lowered her head, and said softly, "Yeah."

Perhaps to make Yunshan more satisfied with Xiao Se, Yun Yun added: "He is also a very powerful alchemist."

"Good! Good! Good!" Yunshan said three good words in a row and looked at Xiao Se again. In addition to caution, he also nodded as he looked at him, just like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. You know, a Dou Zong-level alchemist is at least at the peak of the sixth rank, or even the seventh rank.

Seeing Yunshan's excited expression, Xiao Se rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and slowly said, "Senior Yunshan, I was unwilling to get involved in this mess, but since you are Yuner's teacher, please forgive me for speaking frankly. You have been tricked by the Soul Palace."

Hearing the word Soul Palace again, Yunshan's smile gradually faded, his face became solemn, and he sighed, "I have indeed come into contact with the Soul Palace, but how can I say that I was schemed against by the Soul Palace? Xiao Se, you are a Dou Zong strongman, you must know how terrifying the Soul Palace is. If they want to destroy the Yunlan Sect, why would they scheme against me?"

At the end of his speech, Yunshan revealed a self-deprecating smile.

Xiao Se shook his head: "Before I tell you the truth, there is one thing I want to confirm. Senior Yunshan, have you ever taken the elixir given by the Soul Palace?"

"Yes, two years ago, a guardian from the Soul Palace found me and gave me a Po Zong Pill. Thanks to this Po Zong Pill, I was able to successfully break through to the Dou Zong level." Yunshan nodded without denying it.

"Teacher, you've been fooled. The elixir has been tampered with by the Soul Palace. After taking it, the Soul Palace will plant a secret law in you. That secret law will not only affect your mind and change your temperament but also shackle you by the people of the Soul Palace. They can easily activate the secret law in your body, pull out your soul, and devour it to improve their cultivation."

The person who spoke was Yun Yun. On the way Xiao Se brought her here, she had already told him about the terrifying nature of the Soul Palace's secret technique. Now, when she heard that Yun Shan had taken the elixir given by the Soul Palace, she became extremely anxious and spoke in a hurry.

"This..." A drop of cold sweat dripped from Yunshan's forehead.

If what Xiao Se said earlier about him being plotted against by the Soul Palace was a bit alarmist, then it was most likely true that they later used a secret method to devour his soul to increase their strength.

It is well known that the Soul Palace eats human flesh and leaves no bones.

The reason why he defected to the Soul Palace at that time was that he had no choice. After all, the person who came was Dou Zong. If he did not agree, the Yunlan Sect might be destroyed by the other party.

On the other hand, some people hold onto a certain sense of luck, thinking that the Soul Palace simply wants to use the Yunlan Sect to accomplish things that are inconvenient for them to do.

After all, although the Soul Palace is strong, it is almost a force to be reckoned with in the Douqi Continent. If they act rashly, they will have to consider too many things, and they can't do everything themselves, so they still need some helpers.

As long as their Yunlan Sect follows the orders of the Soul Palace, then nothing will happen. They may even be able to make further progress by borrowing the resources of the Soul Palace.

"But I didn't feel anything abnormal in my body!" Yunshan still held on to hope.

"Senior Yunshan is not an alchemist. With your soul perception, you naturally cannot find it. If you trust me, I can confirm it for you." Xiao Se raised a mysterious smile. It must be said that the secret method of the Soul Palace is buried deep in the soul. With his soul as a peak alchemist of the seventh rank, he activated the Guiyuan Soul Technique and explored it for a long time before finding it. There is a small black dot in the heart of Yunshan's soul that is extremely difficult to detect and almost negligible.

Hearing this, Yunshan's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he subconsciously looked at Yunyun. Yunyun nodded, and he said to Xiao Se, "It's troublesome."

"Then I'm sorry." Xiao Se flashed and instantly came in front of Yunshan. He pointed his right sword finger and a faint wisp of soul power flowed along Yunshan's eyebrows and into his body.

Yunshan nodded, closed his eyes, and sank his mind into his body. Under the guidance of Xiao Se's soul power, the small black dot in the heart area deep in Yunshan's soul was infinitely enlarged in Yunshan's eyes, and finally the word "soul" emerged.

Seeing the word "soul", Yunshan immediately broke out in a cold sweat, "This is..."

"Senior Yunshan, do you still think that the Soul Palace simply wants to use Yunlan as a thug?" Xiao Se withdrew his soul power and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Yunshan's expression changed several times. Helplessness, resentment, resentment, helplessness, all kinds of emotions flashed through his eyes, and finally turned into a sigh of life, "Alas! If I had known this would happen, I would not have done it in the first place. Yun'er, I leave the Yunlan Sect in your hands. And Xiao Se, thank you for telling me the truth before I made a big mistake. Yun'er is in your hands."

At this time, Yunshan had already made up his mind to die. He could die, but the Yunlan Sect could not perish.

Looking at Yunshan's appearance, an unprecedented feeling of powerlessness surged into Yun Yun's heart. This involved the Soul Palace, which was not something that a mere Dou Huang like her could solve. She immediately cast an expectant and helpless look towards Xiao Se.

Xiao Se gave Yunshan a reassuring look in return, and said, "Senior Yunshan, there is no need to do this. I came here for the matter of the Soul Palace."

"Can you remove the soul mark on me?" Upon hearing this, a strong desire to survive flashed across Yunshan's eyes.

Xiao Se nodded, "The soul mark has taken root deep in your soul. Ordinary methods will naturally be ineffective. However, I have this."

As he spoke, Xiao Se stretched out his right hand, and a golden flame instantly rose. The temperature of the entire cave chamber suddenly increased.

"Strange fire?" Upon seeing this, the eyes of Master Yunshan and Master Yunyun lit up at the same time.

"The strange fire can burn souls. You only need to burn the part of the soul that is marked, and the secret method will collapse. Of course, the consequence of doing this is that your soul will suffer extremely serious trauma. This is not the worst. To heal this degree of soul damage, you only need a sixth-grade Rong Ling Pill. The real problem is that bad luck may cause your realm to drop, or even cause your death." Xiao Se explained.

"Let's start. Instead of sitting and waiting to die, we might as well give it a try." Yunshan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"Senior Yunshan is indeed a strong man from the previous era. Don't worry, I will do my best to preserve your cultivation." Xiao Se smiled, a cunning look flashed across his eyes, and his gaze turned to Yun Yun: "Yun'er, I'll trouble you to protect the law outside. Don't be disturbed by anyone while I am removing the soul mark for your teacher, otherwise, all your efforts will be wasted."

"Yeah." Yun Yun nodded, looked at Xiao Se deeply, her cheeks flushed, and turned around and walked out of the cave quickly.

Standing in front of the stone cave, Yun Yun made a hand seal opposite to the previous one, and the stone door closed automatically.

At the same time, Xiao Se sat cross-legged behind Yunshan, took out the strange fire, and injected it into Yunshan's body.

Just before the stone door closed completely, Yunshan's heart-wrenching scream came from the stone chamber in the cave.

An hour later, the door of the stone chamber was opened and Xiao Se walked out with a smile on his face.

"Are you okay? Where's my teacher? How is he?" Yun Yun looked at Yunshan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in the stone chamber, and asked.

"Do you think I look like someone in trouble?" Xiao Se put his arm around Yun Yun's slender waist and said with a smile, "Your teacher said so. I gave him the Rongling Pill and he's fine, but he still needs a few days of recuperation."

Hearing that Yunshan was safe, Yun Yun breathed a sigh of relief and her pretty face blushed.

She pressed her delicate body against Xiao Se's arms, her eyes dodging as she whispered, "What are you doing? My teacher is still in there."

"You can't see it now." Xiao Se waved his right hand, and the stone door of the cave closed automatically. He smiled and said, "Besides, when I was helping your teacher eliminate the Soul Palace secrets just now, Senior Yunshan had already promised to marry you to me."

"Hmph, my teacher must have been fooled by you. Besides, don't you already have that little goblin from the Miter family? Why are you still looking for me?" At this moment, Yun Yun seemed to have returned to the time when her cultivation was sealed by the Amethyst Winged Lion King. She showed her gentle side, and she was no longer as aloof as before, more like a little wife who had been bullied.

"Where did you hear this?" Xiao Se was feeling guilty.

"Do I need to hear it? The whole imperial capital has heard that you are his fiancé. Besides, I have seen that girl Yafei. When it comes to business and management power, she may be a genius, but when it comes to cultivating talent, she is not much different from an ordinary person. She can surpass Yanran in cultivation. Do you dare to say that it is without your help?" Yun Yun pouted her lips and said coquettishly.

"Yun'er, look at me." Xiao Se's tone suddenly became serious. He knew that he would have to tell Yun Yun about this sooner or later, but not now. Their relationship was still in a hazy stage. Yun Yun only had a good impression of him, but no unforgettable love had been born. Therefore, he had to leave a mark on Yun Yun so that Yun Yun would never forget him, and then even if she wanted to run away, she would not be able to.

"What's wrong?" Hearing this, Yun Yun subconsciously looked up and saw Xiao Se's cheek quickly approaching her. By the time she reacted, her lips had been blocked.

Yun Yun's eyes were empty. She was panicked at first, and then her mind went blank.

She already had feelings for Xiao Se, and at that moment she just let Xiao Se kiss her.

I tried to respond awkwardly, but accidentally bit Xiao Se's lips.

Xiao Se pretended to be very awkward, so much so that their teeth knocked against each other several times.

After a while, Xiao Se reluctantly left.

Yun Yun was blushing and snuggled in Xiao Se's arms, panting.

Xiao Se kissed Yun Yun's smooth forehead and smiled, "Do you understand my feelings for you now?"

Yun Yun did not answer, but just nodded slightly, saying everything.

The top of the mountain behind Yunlan Sect.

As Xiao Se and Yun Yun disappeared one after another, Nalan Yanran felt depressed, but fortunately, she sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff to practice and pass the time.

At this moment, Yun Yun's gentle voice sounded behind Nalan Yanran: "Yanran!"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran was delighted. She made a hand seal to stop practicing, quickly stood up, and looked in the direction of Yun Yun: "Teacher, you are back! Did you see Brother Xiao Se? After you left just now, he..."

Nalan Yanran did not finish her words because she saw the most unforgettable scene in her life. The male god she had been thinking about was holding her teacher's hand. The two of them behaved very intimately, just like a couple in love.

"Yanran, let me introduce you again. This is Xiao Se, the man who saved your teacher from trouble in the Monster Mountain Range and gave him many elixirs. All the elixirs you use for your cultivation now are from his hands." Now that she had established a relationship with Xiao Se, Yun Yun simply stopped hiding it. Besides, their relationship was also recognized by Yunshan. The only regret she felt was that her disciple seemed to admire Xiao Huohuo, who was disguised as Xiao Se. Yun Yun could only hope that as time passed, Nalan Yanran would gradually let go of this relationship that had not yet begun.
