Chapter 1323: Ye Lingyun and Biyan'er

In a desolate world.

A figure flew past at extreme speed.

Not long after, Wang Jianqiang's figure paused in mid-air, and he looked behind him.

It was empty, with not a single figure to be seen.

He could not help but reveal a look of disappointment.

When he was fleeing the battlefield, he had specifically looked at the Mermaid Clan cultivators fleeing in other directions; every fleeing Mermaid Clan cultivator had several pursuers behind them.

How come when it came to him, there wasn't a single pursuer?

He had originally wanted to sneakily get some Origin Essence...

What a pity.

A flash of regret crossed Wang Jianqiang's face, and he prepared to find a place to land first, then go look for Lianyin.

Suddenly.

Two auras appeared within his sensing range, and one of them was very familiar.

This is...

Ye Lingyun?

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, then immediately revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

He had not seen Ye Lingyun for a very long time and had been missing him all along.

He did not expect that after arriving in the Sea Region, he would actually encounter this old friend.

The corners of his mouth lifted, and he flew straight toward the direction where Ye Lingyun was.

Not long after.

A handsome, dashing youth with an extraordinary bearing appeared in Wang Jianqiang's field of vision.

Seeing this figure, Wang Jianqiang felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

It really was Ye Lingyun!

Immediately after, his gaze shifted and landed on the figure beside Ye Lingyun.

That was a female cultivator.

With bright eyes and white teeth, her appearance was stunningly beautiful.

She possessed a temperament as clean and transparent as a bright pearl, making one feel refreshed and happy the moment they saw her.

Seeing this woman, Wang Jianqiang's eyes lit up instantly.

His heart was filled with surprise.

Could this be...

A new friend Daoist Friend Ye has made?

Good, good, good~

Lingyun Selection, every one is of immortal quality!

He is worthy of being the Child of Luck.

This eye for quality, this quality control...

High!

High indeed!

He liked it very much.

While Wang Jianqiang was looking at the two of them, Ye Lingyun and Biyan'er also saw Wang Jianqiang.

At this moment, Wang Jianqiang was still showing the appearance of Tianyu, but for the sake of some future operations.

He did not cover his cultivation anymore and fully revealed his Integration Initial Stage cultivation.

Upon sensing Wang Jianqiang's cultivation, Biyan'er, who had been somewhat vigilant, relaxed her expression.

After sizing Wang Jianqiang up for a moment, her expression stirred, "Are you a Daoist Friend of the Mermaid Clan?"

Biyan'er's voice was crisp and pleasant, refreshing like a clear spring, while also mixed with a hint of gentleness and charm.

It was very unique.

It left a deep impression after hearing it just once.

"Greetings, Fairy, I am Tianyu of the Mermaid Clan."

Wang Jianqiang cupped his hands in a salute toward Biyan'er.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the vigilance in Biyan'er's heart completely dissipated, and she smiled, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, do not be nervous. My name is Biyan'er, and I come from the Jade Clam Clan."

Hearing this, Wang Jianqiang's expression stirred.

As far as he knew, the relationship between the Jade Clam Clan and the Mermaid Clan seemed to be very good.

Thinking this in his heart, he revealed an eager smile on his face, "So it is Bi Xianzi."

While Wang Jianqiang and Biyan'er were conversing, Ye Lingyun had been staring at Wang Jianqiang, not interjecting.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and deep in his eyes flickered doubt and uncertainty.

He did not know why.

He clearly had never seen this Mermaid Clan cultivator before, but the moment he saw the other party, a sense of horror and an unprovoked disgust inexplicably arose in his heart.

It was as if he had seen an enemy with whom he had a blood feud.

This made him suspicious, and at the same time, he could not help but secretly become vigilant.

Biyan'er, who was conversing with Wang Jianqiang, keenly sensed Ye Lingyun's vigilance; her heart stirred, and then, as if thinking of something, she smiled and shook her head, "Daoist Friend Ye, rest assured, the Mermaids have always loved peace; apart from facing individual hostile races, they almost never form enmities with any race."

"Regarding that kill order for you, the Mermaid Clan will not participate."

"Daoist Friend Tianyu will not deal with you for the sake of the kill order."

Ye Lingyun came back to his senses upon hearing this, temporarily casting aside the hesitation in his heart.

Looking at Wang Jianqiang, he squeezed a smile onto his face, "Greetings, Daoist Friend Tianyu."

A kill order?

After hearing the conversation between the two, Wang Jianqiang's heart stirred.

It seemed he had thought of something.

A subtle arc curled at the corners of his mouth.

Just at this moment, Biyan'er suddenly spoke again, "I observed that Daoist Friend Tianyu seemed to be in a hurry earlier; did you encounter any danger?"

Hearing Biyan'er's words, Wang Jianqiang nodded with a solemn expression, "Our Mermaid Clan's team was besieged by the joint forces of the Sea Giant race and the Octopus Clan..."

Wang Jianqiang did not hide anything and recounted to Biyan'er the sequence of events regarding how the Octopus Clan and the Sea Giant race had joined forces to besiege the Mermaid Clan.

The Sea Giant race!

The Octopus Clan!

Upon hearing the names of these two races, the expression on Ye Lingyun's face could not help but turn cold.

During the time when he had just entered the Sea Region and had not yet met Biyan'er.

The Sea Giant race was definitely the race that had hunted him the most times and was the most vicious.

As for the Octopus Clan, although not as detestable as the Sea Giant race, in terms of the intensity of their pursuit, they were enough to rank in the second tier right below the Sea Giant race.

Detecting the fleeting killing intent on Ye Lingyun, Wang Jianqiang smiled secretly.

It was he who had helped spread Ye Lingyun's reputation back then.

The moment he heard about the kill order, he had guessed that these two races would definitely participate in it.

From the change in Ye Lingyun's expression, he had already confirmed...

That he had guessed correctly.

Biyan'er glanced at Ye Lingyun, her eyes flashing, and she turned to look at Wang Jianqiang, "How many of them are there?"

More than a hundred.

Wang Jianqiang spoke.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Biyan'er's expression changed.

That many?

If it were a dozen or even twenty people.

She might have considered whether to help out and incidentally take revenge for Ye Lingyun.

But over a hundred people... and all of them are Integration Stage Cultivators...

There are too many people.

Even she had absolutely no possibility of resisting them alone.

Thinking of this, she sighed, "Daoist Friend Ye, the Sea Giant race and the Octopus Clan are numerous and powerful; it is better for us to temporarily avoid their edge."

Upon hearing the number of people from the two races, the anger in Ye Lingyun's heart had already cooled completely.

Hearing Biyan'er's advice, he did not refute it, but nodded and said, "Rest assured, Bi Xianzi, Ye is not an impulsive person."

Biyan'er breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then turned to look at Wang Jianqiang, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, the number of enemies is too great, and I am powerless to help; please forgive me."

"We still need to explore other directions, so let us part ways here."

As she spoke, she was about to leave with Ye Lingyun.

Just as Biyan'er turned around, a voice suddenly entered her ears.

"Fairy, please stay."
