Chapter 1338: Tianyu's Troubles

~7 min read 1,273 words

The suddenly transmitted voice made Ye Lingyun pause.

He subconsciously glanced at Wang Jianqiang, a look of confusion revealing itself in his eyes.

Wang Jianqiang remained calm and continued the voice transmission, his tone carrying a hint of emotion, "Daoist Friend Ye, to be honest with you, because of my conduct and exceptional wit, I have offended too many people in the past, so I do not wish to be too high-profile. I ask that you please not speak of those things that reflect my excellent qualities."

Ye Lingyun was stunned, "Why is that?"

Wang Jianqiang transmitted back, his tone containing a bitter smile, "Daoist Friend should be very clear that qualities like mine are very admirable, and this naturally includes female Cultivators."

"Within the Mermaid Clan, I was admired by many female members of my own clan because of these noble qualities, and among them were even many people admired by my own friends..."

"This caused me to offend them invisibly."

"Although I cannot control the noble conduct I have long since made a habit, I can find ways to cover up my excellent side."

"After learning this lesson, I have been hiding my excellent side."

"I treat you as a close friend and do not wish to have any conflict with you, Daoist Friend."

By the time he finished, Wang Jianqiang's words carried a tone of earnest advice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyun felt a sense of sudden realization, followed by a wave of being moved.

So that was it!

What Tianyu said was correct.

The more excellent a person is, the easier it is to attract the favor of the opposite sex.

Tianyu's performance was too excellent, and it could indeed attract the favor of Biyan'er.

Biyan'er was peerlessly beautiful, and her talent was also quite astonishing.

Faced with such a beauty, no one could remain unmoved.

To think that Tianyu could deliberately restrain his charm for the sake of their friendship and not have the slightest special thought toward Biyan'er.

He is truly a gentleman.

Such conduct is indeed worthy of admiration.

His judgment was indeed correct; this Tianyu is truly someone worth befriending!

"Daoist Friend Ye?"

Seeing that Ye Lingyun had stopped speaking after opening his mouth, Biyan'er could not help but speak again.

Hearing Biyan'er's voice, Ye Lingyun immediately snapped back to reality.

"Daoist Friend Ye, you still haven't said what Daoist Friend Tianyu advised you on," Biyan'er asked again.

"Ah?"

"Actually, it's nothing..."

Ye Lingyun gave a hollow laugh, his expression flickering, and then he continued, "Ye previously mentioned some setbacks I had encountered to Daoist Friend Tianyu, and Daoist Friend Tianyu advised me a few words, helping me think through some things."

"So that's how it is."

Biyan'er smiled and nodded, "Daoist Friend Tianyu is completely unreserved toward his friends; his character is truly beyond reproach."

As she spoke, a strange brilliance appeared on her face.

After finishing his words, Ye Lingyun had been observing Biyan'er's expression.

He keenly noticed that flash of brilliance on Biyan'er's face.

His heart skipped a beat.

Daoist Friend Tianyu's worry was indeed correct; Bi Xianzi really was looking at him differently.

It was fortunate that he hadn't told the truth.

If Bi Xianzi knew that it was Daoist Friend Tianyu who suggested he flee early, and learned of Daoist Friend Tianyu's wise and resourceful side, I fear her favor toward Tianyu would increase even more!

Thinking of this, while he felt secretly relieved, he could not help but feel even more gratitude toward Tianyu.

Fortunately, Tianyu took the initiative to warn him; otherwise, the destined woman he had finally encountered might have been pushed away by his own hands.

"Haha, Yan'er, Daoist Friend Ye, it is only right for friends to help each other; you two are taking it too seriously."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and waved his hand.

Yan'er?

Hearing how Wang Jianqiang addressed Biyan'er, Ye Lingyun's expression froze.

He had known Biyan'er for much longer and still hadn't addressed Bi Xianzi so intimately.

How long had this Tianyu known Bi Xianzi?

And he was already calling her that?

Wang Jianqiang keenly sensed the flash of astonishment on Ye Lingyun's face.

He secretly transmitted to explain, "Daoist Friend Ye, do not misunderstand. I saved Yan'er, and Yan'er is very grateful to me; this form of address is something Yan'er herself requested I use."

"It is not that I intentionally wanted to get closer to her by calling her that."

"If I had thought that way, I would not have taken the initiative to warn Daoist Friend Ye earlier."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyun thought it made sense.

His heart immediately relaxed, and he responded via transmission, his tone light and carefree, "Daoist Friend Tianyu is joking. It is just a form of address; Ye does not care at all."

Wang Jianqiang heard this and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Now that a large number of Cultivators from various clans have entered this Treasure Land, although the resources in this Treasure Land are plentiful, they are ultimately limited."

"We should hurry and search for treasures."

Biyan'er then proposed.

The three of them continued to search in this Treasure Land.

"Yan'er, let's go in this direction."

After the three of them had flown forward for more than an hour, Wang Jianqiang suddenly pointed in a direction.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Ye Lingyun frowned, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, Bi Xianzi has a deep connection to this place; we only need to follow her, it is better not to interfere."

As soon as Ye Lingyun finished speaking, before Wang Jianqiang could continue, Biyan'er's brows were the first to furrow.

Although Ye Lingyun's tone was polite, for some reason, his stance of contradicting Daoist Friend Tianyu made her feel somewhat repulsed, and she felt a wave of discomfort in her heart.

She spoke indifferently, "Since Daoist Friend Tianyu has already said so, then let us proceed in that direction."

Ye Lingyun was stunned for a moment.

Noticing the change in Ye Lingyun's expression, although Biyan'er did not want to explain from the bottom of her heart, she ultimately offered an explanation for the sake of their past ties.

"Daoist Friend Tianyu possesses a very miraculous sensing ability, which can detect hidden treasures within a certain range."

"The direction he points to certainly contains treasures."

Hearing Biyan'er's explanation, Ye Lingyun couldn't help but look at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of surprise, "Daoist Friend Tianyu actually has such a strange ability?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "It cannot be considered all that strange; it is just being able to sense a general direction, whether or not it can be found specifically still depends on the situation."

"This is already very impressive."

Ye Lingyun nodded with a face full of admiration.

He felt a wave of relief in his heart.

Earlier, seeing Biyan'er contradict him for following Tianyu, his heart had skipped a beat.

He had thought that Biyan'er had already developed special feelings for Tianyu.

Now it seemed that he had been overthinking it.

Afterwards, the three of them flew together in the direction pointed out by Wang Jianqiang.

Not long after.

Biyan'er suddenly revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

Her bloodline was fluctuating once again.

This meant that she had encountered another precious Magic Treasure exclusive to Jade Clam Clan Cultivators!

"There is a treasure nearby, I have already sensed it."

"You wait here for me, I will be back shortly."

She said this with a face full of excitement and flew off in one direction.

Not long after.

A violent fluctuation of battle suddenly came from the direction in which Biyan'er had left.
