Chapter 1343: Ye Lingyun's Questioning

~7 min read 1,231 words

After Ye Lingyun finished speaking, he keenly sensed the fleeting blush on Biyan'er's face.

He assumed Biyan'er felt shy because he had shown concern for her in front of Tianyu.

He chuckled inwardly.

Why had Yan'er suddenly become so thin-skinned?

Could it be... that she had already fallen for him?

It must be so!

Only when one truly cares for someone would they have such a strong reaction to a small gesture from the other person!

Thinking of this.

A surge of joy filled his heart.

Outwardly, he remained calm, maintaining a gentle and refined appearance.

He continued with concern, "Yan'er, for this past month, we have been constantly searching for treasures."

"Every time, you have been responsible for the most dangerous task of collecting them."

"You must be quite exhausted, right?"

"How about..."

"We find a place to settle down first, and you take a rest?"

Hearing Ye Lingyun's suggestion, Biyan'er subconsciously looked at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "It is indeed time to find a place to rest for a while."

"Yan'er, you are the main force of our team; if your energy is too depleted, we might find it difficult to cope should a sudden crisis occur."

"For safety's sake, it is better to find a place to rest for now and continue the search after your condition has recovered."

Biyan'er nodded, "Since that is the case, let us find a place to rest."

Ye Lingyun frowned.

His gaze lingered on Biyan'er and "Tianyu" for a moment, then his tightly furrowed brows relaxed.

He shook his head inwardly.

The reason Yan'er sought Tianyu's opinion first was likely just out of politeness.

From Yan'er's behavior along the way, he could judge that Yan'er liked him.

Moreover, Tianyu had already stated that he would not have any ideas about Yan'er.

There was no need for him to overthink it.

By dusk, night had fallen.

The three of them found a cave to settle in temporarily.

Just as Ye Lingyun was about to move closer to Biyan'er to converse more and deepen their relationship.

Biyan'er suddenly turned to look at him, "Daoist Friend Ye, please excuse yourself for a moment; I have some matters to discuss with Daoist Friend Tianyu."

Ye Lingyun was stunned and couldn't help but blurt out, "Still discussing?"

After saying it, he felt his tone was too sharp.

He quickly softened his tone and added, "Bi Xianzi, you and Daoist Friend Tianyu have discussed things so many times already, why must you discuss more? Have you encountered a problem that cannot be solved?"

"Why not tell me? With one more person participating, we can have one more idea."

Biyan'er shook her head, "This matter concerns the future of the Mermaid Clan and the Jade Clam Clan; it is of great importance and cannot be spread."

"I hope Daoist Friend Ye can understand."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyun felt a sense of helplessness.

Although he was somewhat unwilling, he eventually nodded.

He turned and left the cave.

As expected.

After he left the cave, a light screen from an Array rose once again, enveloping the cave and cutting off its connection to the outside world.

Ye Lingyun turned to look at this Formation, his brows knitting tightly together.

A look of doubt appeared on his face.

He always felt that Biyan'er sending him away was not as simple as just discussing matters.

Inside the cave.

After Ye Lingyun left, Wang Jianqiang looked at Biyan'er with a face full of surprise, "Yan'er, what do you want to talk to me about?"

A blush appeared on Biyan'er's face, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, I would like to ask for your help once more."

Wang Jianqiang was startled, "What help?"

"No rush, let me help you resolve the Karma first," Biyan'er shook her head.

"This... Yan'er, you should say it first; if I am unable to help you, wouldn't that be..."

"It is fine."

Before Wang Jianqiang could finish, Biyan'er waved her hand generously.

The Formation lasted for over twenty days before it disappeared.

Biyan'er did not know what she was considering, but until the end, she did not say exactly what help she wanted from Wang Jianqiang.

She only said to talk about it later, and there was no further mention of it.

The moment the Formation disappeared, Ye Lingyun flashed and entered the cave immediately.

He then met Wang Jianqiang and Biyan'er, who were just about to walk out of the cave.

Wang Jianqiang was quite indifferent, his expression normal, a faint smile on his face; he seemed to be in a good mood.

But Biyan'er, judging by her appearance, seemed somewhat weak.

"Bi Xianzi, what is wrong with you?"

"Is there somewhere you feel uncomfortable?"

Ye Lingyun immediately revealed a look of concern.

Biyan'er shook her head, "It is nothing, I have just been talking with Daoist Friend Tianyu for a bit too long, and I am just a little tired."

Ye Lingyun frowned.

Talked for nearly a month?

He could not figure out what exactly Biyan'er had to talk to Tianyu about for so long.

Instinctively, he felt something was not right.

But Biyan'er refused to speak a word about this matter, and it was not appropriate for him to ask.

He had feelings for Biyan'er.

Although he knew that Biyan'er also liked him, the two of them had, after all, not yet expressed their feelings to each other.

On the surface, they were just ordinary friends.

He did not yet have the qualifications to question her.

Thinking of this, he sighed inwardly, then continued to say to Biyan'er with a face full of concern, "Bi Xianzi, since that is the case, why don't we stay here for a few more days."

"Let's wait until you have fully recovered before we leave."

Biyan'er shook her head, "No need, my Soul power has already recovered; it is just a little fatigue, and it is the same to recover while we are treasure hunting."

Time flowed by slowly.

In the blink of an eye.

Another five months passed.

During this period.

Biyan'er and Wang Jianqiang had two more conversations.

Each time it was for nearly a month.

Gradually.

The suspicion in Ye Lingyun's heart grew more and more serious.

It had even gradually evolved into a guess he was unwilling to believe.

This day.

After the three of them finished resting, they continued on their way.

Having just flown for half an hour.

Ye Lingyun finally could not hold back; he took a deep breath and secretly sent a voice transmission to Wang Jianqiang.

"Daoist Friend Tianyu, what exactly are you and Bi Xianzi chatting about?"

"What kind of matter requires chatting for such a long time?"

His tone was somewhat agitated, even mixed with a hint of questioning.

Wang Jianqiang's expression flickered, "Hasn't Yan'er already told you? We were just discussing some matters regarding our two clans."

Although the trace of unnaturalness on Wang Jianqiang's face flashed by in an instant, it was still keenly detected by Ye Lingyun.

His emotions immediately became even more agitated, "Impossible! You are lying to me!"

"Something must have happened between you and Bi Xianzi that I don't know about!"

Speaking to this point, his gaze flashed as he stared at Wang Jianqiang, his voice speaking word by word in Wang Jianqiang's mind, "You and Bi Xianzi have already cooked the rice, haven't you?"
