An island far away from the Beidou continent is shrouded in haze all year round. The land is barren, the vegetation is sparse, and the living environment is harsh.
And those who can survive on this island have lived here for a long, long time.
It has been so long that I have forgotten how many years have passed. Is it one hundred years? Or one hundred and twenty years?
It's been so long that I've become numb to life.
It took so long that even the last glimmer of hope in my heart was extinguished.
However, the growth of a little girl lit up their lives again.
When Liu Yan was twelve years old, on a starless and moonless night, it was the time closest to chaos.
Witnessed by the whole clan and guided by the sacrifice, she walked up to the altar with bare feet and solemn steps, and finally resonated with the statue of the god enshrined by the Hungu clan.
When a person and a statue look at each other, the fluorescence produced by the two spreads like ripples little by little.
When the onlookers saw this scene, they felt the soul cleansing brought by the resonance, and the refreshing feeling that seemed to open up the meridians of the whole body, which made people immersed in it.
The power of chaos is being awakened in everyone's body, and the power of the seal is also being restored.
That year, fifteen-year-old Jin Yufeng stood in the crowd and stared blankly at the shy and beautiful little girl on the altar.
Look at her holding the scepter that symbolizes the Hungu clan in her hand, and chanting ancient spells in her mouth.
At night, the swaying firelight reflected those bright and moving eyes, with a hint of perseverance.
The clenched palms bravely face the power of the statue, which is the will to shoulder the hope of all tribesmen.
Jin Yufeng was deeply attracted at first, and then his heart started to burn. He seemed to have found what he wanted to do in his life.
On that day, he secretly swore that he would protect Liu Yan forever and ever.
But, who would have thought...
*****************
When he woke up, Jin Yufeng sat numbly on the bed.
In my mind, pictures of the past rise and fall.
He watched Liu Yan grow up step by step, watched her lose her youthfulness step by step, and also made people obsessed with her step by step to the point where it was difficult to extricate herself.
As beautiful as the memories were in the past, they are so painful now.
When he woke up, the cruel reality made him feel a tearing pain in his heart.
Clench your fists and say nothing.
On the chest, an old injury appears faintly.
Even if he wanted to fly now, he couldn't fly out of this island.
But when he returns to this state, not even the ordinary disciples of Wan Lei Tian Clan can defeat him.
Poor, sad.
The vows I made were just like a joke.
He couldn't even protect himself, so he said he would always protect Liu Yan.
Jin Yufeng couldn't help but laugh at himself. He never thought that one day he would place all his hopes on Xiao Yi, the person he envied and hated the most.
But it doesn't matter, as long as Xiao Yi can save Liu Yan.
As long as Liu Yan survives, as long as Liu Yan can be happy, if she is with Xiao Yi, then she will be together, and if she marries Xiao Yi, then she will marry Xiao Yi.
Jin Yufeng rubbed his forehead and said silently: "Please, Xiao Yi."
"To survive, you must let Liu Yan survive."
"As long as you can help me, I can do anything, including disappearing from your eyes."
Just when Jin Yufeng was in distress and confusion, a milky voice came from outside: "Uncle Jin, it's already dawn, it's time to get up and go to the mountains to pick fruits."
"Sister Zhou said that everyone has to eat, and you can't be lazy."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yufeng forced a smile, then dressed neatly and walked out of the small bamboo house arranged for him.
Looking in front of me, she is as pink and tender as a porcelain doll, and her eyes are like a little boy's black gems.
Jin Yufeng couldn't help but reached out and touched the little boy's head, and said with a smile: "Little devil, it seems that he has grown taller again!"
"That's right. The ones with thin skin and tender meat can be sold at a good price."
This was not pleasant to hear. The little boy who was first touched on the head and then pinched on the face was obviously unhappy and snorted: "Uncle Jin, if you bully a child like this, you are bullying a small one. It's very shameless."
"
"Sister Zhou hates shameless people the most. If you want to see her, stop dreaming."
"Also, don't touch it again. If you touch it again, you will be paid."
Jin Yufeng smiled, let go, squatted down, looked at the little boy whose face was pinched with interest, and said: "Then can you tell me, what kind of person does your sister Zhou like?
What can I do to see her, even just once?"
The little boy looked disdainful: "Uncle Jin, I advise you to give up on this idea."
"Sister Zhou said that the person she likes is from a different world than us."
"That is to say, you will never be the person that Sister Zhou likes, and you will never be able to meet Sister Zhou."
"Yes, it's that simple."
When Jin Yufeng heard this, he frowned and felt very mysterious.
What does it mean to not be from the same world? Could it be that the person that the so-called Sister Zhou likes has gone to another world, so she no longer loves him and lives in seclusion on this small island isolated from the world.
The little boy looked around and saw no one around, then whispered: "Uncle Jin, I see that you teach me skills on weekdays, and I will also tell you a little secret."
"Sister Zhou said she..."
Just when the little boy was about to blurt out, a sonorous and powerful piano sound suddenly came.
The buzzing sound was like a direct hit to the soul, directly interrupting his words.
The little boy was so frightened that he reincarnated and ran away, shouting: "Sister Zhou, I'm sorry."
"I said nothing, nothing."
"Sister Zhou, I don't dare to do it anymore."
Jin Yufeng didn't find it funny at all when he saw the little boy running away.
Turn back and look at the small house in the middle of the lake deep in the woods.
I feel like Sister Zhou is becoming more and more mysterious, and people are becoming more and more interested in knowing what kind of person she is.
Also, why do you always avoid seeing me?
It probably wasn't meant to whet one's appetite, but there must be a reason.
After calming down, Jin Yufeng decided to try again.
He took steps and walked deeper into the woods.
However, another burst of piano music sounded, and the sound waves came slowly.
It was melodious and graceful, without disturbing a single bird or disturbing a single leaf.
The sound of the piano came one after another, like waves hitting the beach, pushing Jin Yufeng back.
"this……"
Jin Yufeng backed up and then back up, and was shocked to find that he was back where he was.
After taking a few steps, he took a few steps back.
How could this not make him marvel at the unfathomable skills of Sister Zhou?
It was also this cultivation that dispelled all thoughts of forcing his way through.
He can't beat him, even if he regains his strength, he can't beat him.
Jin Yufeng couldn't help but think that such a master living here in seclusion must have a very special story.
At this time, the little boy shouted: "Okay, Sister Zhou is going to be angry, why don't you come and help us work quickly?"
