Huo Ling'er
"Master, who did you just say was?"
"The founder of the Heaven Mending Pavilion, Guei Ye."
"He's alive?"
"Um."
"No... how could a dead person come back to life?"
"Although it's unbelievable, it's absolutely true. He really is alive. Your sweetheart's abilities are far more extraordinary than I imagined."
"Master, I have no relation to him whatsoever."
"You really don't like him?"
"Who... who would like that little rascal?" Huo Ling'er blushed, lowered her head, and said shyly, "He really is rotten to the core."
Every time Ye Feng and Huo Ling'er met, Ye Feng would take advantage of Huo Ling'er.
Huo Ling'er touched her buttocks.
She missed Ye Feng Ye Feng terribly, having not seen him for a long time.
"I can't be wrong. Ling Er, you like him. Since you like him, then be brave and pursue him."
"Ah, Master, you want me to go after him?"
"Why not? If it's someone you like, then don't hesitate. Go for it!"
"But... Father will not approve. He comes from Stone Village."
"Ling Er, when did you learn to judge people by their appearance? After this battle, Stone Village will surely become famous Desolate Region. Ling Er, Ye Feng's abilities are far more than this. If you truly like him, I agree that you should pursue him. As for your father, I have already given my approval, so he won't have any other opinions. Besides, I feel that Ye Feng also likes you. Now that chaos has begun, Ye Feng has you stay by my side because he is worried that something might happen to you."
"Did he ask you to leave me here?"
Huo Ling'er listened to the words of Vermilion Bird Venerable, a warm ripple welled up in her heart.
During their conversation, a small group of people broke into the area. They were wearing masks. Their eyes immediately fell on Huo Ling'er on the roof.
"Princess of the Fire Nation... Princess of the Fire Nation, the Heaven Mending Pavilion is doomed. I advise you not to hinder our progress."
"What if I absolutely have to stop it?"
"Well... we can only blame ourselves for being impolite."
The intruders unleashed their magical techniques, launching successive attacks on Huo Ling'er.
"The Rain Clan's treasured techniques... You are from the Rain Clan?"
Huo Ling'er recognized the other party's identity from the magical technique. They were from the Rain Clan. Moreover, the fact that more than a dozen of them were here clearly indicated their purpose: they were after the magical technique treasured by the Heaven Mending Pavilion.
Previously, only a few people had come here sporadically. Now, so many people have arrived all at once. The Heaven Mending Pavilion is so vast that few know the exact address of the Library Pavilion. Huo Ling'er's intuition told her that something was very unusual.
Huo Ling'er didn't make a move. The woman in the red dress sitting next to her waved her hand, and countless red feathers shot out, shattering the Rain Clan's magical techniques and killing everyone who had intruded.
"Ling Er, go and see if they have any treasures on them. Take whatever you see that catches your eye," said Vermilion Bird.
Huo Ling'er nodded and jumped down from the Library Pavilion. She came to the corpse on the ground and searched it for a while, obtaining some decent Precious Artifact.
After obtaining the treasure, Huo Ling'er lightly touched the ground and, instead of returning to Vermilion Bird's side, took the opportunity to leave the Library Pavilion.
"Ling Er?"
"Master, with you guarding this place, no one can enter."
Huo Ling'er's voice grew fainter and fainter. By the time Vermilion Bird realized what was happening, she had already run a long distance away.
Vermilion Bird gazed at Huo Ling'er's retreating figure and the direction she was heading. That direction was towards the location of the Heaven Mending Pavilion Sacrificial Spirit. Clearly, even though Huo Ling'er knew that Guei Ye had been resurrected, she was still worried about Ye Feng's safety.
Huo Ling'er ran for a few minutes and arrived at the courtyard where the Heaven Mending Pavilion Sacrificial Spirit.
In this dilapidated courtyard, almost all the New Disciple were gathered. Besides the New Disciple, there was also a Soul Saint shrouded in a gray robe, who stayed beside Ye Feng.
"Little Fat Girl!"
Ye Feng saw Huo Ling'er running into the courtyard and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Snort!"
Huo Ling'er pouted and said, "You're really not loyal. You didn't even call me when there was something fun to do. If you had called me, I would have had to come by myself."
"Nonsense, it's dangerous here," Ye Feng said.
"Danger is what makes it fun." Huo Ling'er smiled.
"Alright, just be careful later." Ye Feng couldn't persuade Huo Ling'er Huo Ling'er otherwise, so he ignored her.
Since Huo Ling'er arrived here, his soul perception has sensed a powerful soul sensing this place.
Not only Ye Feng, but also Guei Ye sensed the other party's presence.
Some distance from the Heaven Mending Pavilion, a man dressed in red brocade robes stared at the Heaven Mending Pavilion with a bewildered expression. "Huh, who is he?"
"Your Majesty, who are you referring to?"
The people of the Fire Nation questioned the man in brocade.
The man in brocade robes frowned slightly. He didn't continue speaking, instead gathering his spiritual energy. "A Trap Within a Trap. What a formidable organization, the Heaven Mending Pavilion. They almost fooled even me. And... that kid's senses are incredibly sharp... he detected my presence so accurately from such a distance."
The man in brocade robes is the Fire Emperor of the Fire Nation, Huo Ling'er's father.
He had always assumed that Vermilion Bird and Ye Feng had some connection, which was why Vermilion Bird had agreed to protect the Heaven Mending Pavilion. He never imagined that the Heaven Mending Pavilion didn't need protection at all. Just now, he sensed an aura from Guei Ye that even he himself feared. He felt that Guei Ye's cultivation was at least equal to, if not lower than, his own.
"Let's go back."
"Your Majesty, are the princess and the sacrificial spirit still at the Heaven Mending Pavilion?"
"No one can destroy the Heaven Mending Pavilion anymore. Ling Er and the Sacrificial Spirit will also be in no danger."
The powerful figures of the Fire Nation listened to the Fire Emperor's words. Although their hearts were full of doubts, they still followed the Fire Emperor and left the forest.
Heaven Mending Pavilion, Guei Ye said, "It's him."
"It is indeed him." Ye Feng nodded.
"Who are you talking about?" Huo Ling'er asked.
Huo Ling'er was unaware that her father was deeply worried about her. Her soul perception was not on the same level as Guei Ye and Ye Feng. She did not sense that her father was always by her side.
"Your father," Ye Feng replied.
"He's here... Strange, why isn't he coming in?" Huo Ling'er pouted, trying to leap to the highest point in the courtyard, but Ye Feng grabbed her hand. "What are you doing?"
What are you going to do?
"Ask Father for help."
He's already gone.
"Gone... why did they leave again?" Huo Ling'er wondered.
Ye Feng glanced at Guei Ye. If he wasn't mistaken, the Fire Emperor had sensed Guei Ye's presence and felt there was no need for him to stay any longer, which was why he had left the Heaven Mending Pavilion.
"Ye Feng, how much longer do we have to wait?" Guei Ye asked, losing his patience.
"Wait for the signal," Ye Feng said.
"Signal..." Huo Ling'er didn't understand Ye Feng's words and asked, "You little rascal, how come you're just like Father Emperor, making it impossible for anyone to figure out your purpose? You little rascal, tell me quickly, what signal are you waiting for?"
"Elder Xiong Fei's signal."
