Although Yue Qingshan had successfully forced out his sword energy and saved his own life, his heart was deeply wounded.
He had thought that Yue Mingkong was staying by Ye Yun's side against her will, but from what had just happened, it seemed she was there voluntarily.
Everything he had done was just wishful thinking; from the beginning, Yue Mingkong had never intended to accept his goodwill.
The thought of the person he loved having such an attitude towards him made Yue Qingshan's heart ache.
Every time he closed his eyes, the intimate scenes between Ye Yun and Yue Mingkong would fsh in his mind.
It was sheer torment, an inhuman kind of torment.
"Cough, cough!"
At that moment, a weak cough sounded, instantly pulling Yue Qingshan back to reality.
"Master?"
The voice was so faint that Yue Qingshan called out anxiously.
At this moment, he no longer had time to think about Yue Mingkong.
Since Mingkong no longer cared about him, he couldn't keep shamelessly simping for her.
His growth to this point was all thanks to his master's help.
Hearing his master's voice so weak, he was very worried about what might happen to him.
If something really happened to his master, what would he do then?
Without his master's guidance, his future cultivation path would undoubtedly be much more difficult.
He was a person with no support, and to become stronger, his master's guidance was essential.
Relying solely on himself, he would surely take many wrong turns in the future.
"Master! Are you alright? Could it be that just now...!"
Yue Qingshan suddenly remembered the cool sensation he felt while circuting his cultivation technique earlier, which had forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.
At the time, he didn't know what it was, but now it seemed that his master was helping him.
If not for his master, he might have already lost control to demonic cultivation.
Feeling very emotional, Yue Qingshan's voice was filled with concern.
Now, the only one he could rely on was his master, and he didn't want anything else to happen to him.
Hearing the call, the remnant soul slowly appeared through the finger flick, but compared to before, it looked even more fragile.
Seeing the nearly transparent remnant soul, Yue Qingshan knew that his master had greatly depleted his energy to help him.
Thinking of this, Yue Qingshan was filled with gratitude.
Looking at his disciple's concerned face, the remnant soul showed a comforting expression and spoke earnestly.
"Qingshan, to help you calm your anger, I used my power, but now it seems... I fear I can no longer sustain it.
That was the only way I could help you for now; I need to rest within the finger flick for a while."
Upon hearing this, Yue Qingshan was moved to tears.
His master had paid such a high price to help him recover, and he was naturally very emotional and grateful.
"Master! I'm sorry. If I had listened to you, things wouldn't have turned out this way!
It was all to save Yue Mingkong, yet she treated me so coldly. I was too naive."
Through this experience, Yue Qingshan felt like he was growing rapidly, like flying on a sword.
He no longer naively believed that Yue Mingkong couldn't live without him.
"Alright, Qingshan, take this and follow the address on it. You can find an ancient ruin.
It's a very secretive ruin that I discovered by chance and have never used or visited.
Apart from this map, no one else knows its location. It's a ruin left by a very powerful being, so be extremely careful."
After speaking, the remnant soul left a scroll of the map and then returned to the finger flick.
After witnessing this, Yue Qingshan called out loudly to his master.
"Master! Master!"
But unfortunately, there was no response, just as his master had said, he had entered a state of slumber.
This meant that from now on, Yue Qingshan would have to make all the decisions himself.
With no response from his master, Yue Qingshan felt very sad.
He crouched down and picked up the map from the ground, looking at the detailed location drawn on it.
After clearly seeing the location, Yue Qingshan murmured to himself.
"This is... Cangn Continent? Is the pce here?"
Cangn Continent was one of the areas controlled by the Ye Family, located at the border of the Ye Family Dominated Region, a rather chaotic pce.
If the ancient ruin was there, he might actually have a chance to enter.
After all, he was the only one with the map, and no one else knew the exact location of the ruin.
Thinking of this, Yue Qingshan's heart burned with excitement.
Although he didn't know which powerful figure left the ruin, there must be many treasures inside to aid his cultivation.
Perhaps he could gain more opportunities and eventually catch up with Ye Yun, making Yue Mingkong regret her attitude towards him.
With this in mind, Yue Qingshan immediately prepared to pack and set off.
The sooner he acted, the better. Deying might lead to unforeseen changes.
Moreover, if the Yue Family found out he had challenged Ye Yun on his own, he might face severe consequences.
It's best to leave now and not give the Yue Family any chance to punish him.
...
On the other side, having successfully won the challenge and obtained a Reincarnation Device, Ye Yun was leisurely rexing in his backyard.
He was contempting how to further exploit Yue Qingshan.
After all, he still had so many Fate Points left; if he didn't use them well, it would be a waste of letting him go this time.
"Come here!"
Gazing at the sky, Ye Yun suddenly called out.
A gust of wind blew, and a figure dressed entirely in bck appeared before Ye Yun.
The figure knelt respectfully on one knee, hands pced in front.
"Young Master, what are your orders?"
A gentle female voice came, and indeed, the person in bck was a woman, not a man.
She was a personal guard sent by Ye Yun's mother, Yun Yao, to protect him.
After the previous incident, Yun Yao had specially assigned a personal female guard she had trained to stay by Ye Yun's side.
Besides protecting Ye Yun, she had to carry out any orders he gave her.
