Zhang Yunyan saw Bai Yunfei cared for her so deeply and felt grateful. "Thank you for your care, my brother. I will keep all your words in my heart. Ah, it is really dangerous this time and I feel hateful when thinking of it. I regret when letting Living Yama catch me by accident. Otherwise, I have got rid of this bully. This b.l.o.o.d.y lesson is too heavy for me. I will keep it in my mind and will not take action rashly."
Bai Yunfei remembered one thing and warned Yunyan that people in Jianghu had not restrained to kill others. The killing at will would be inevitable. Although Zhang Yunyan was different from those people, she was entangled with her hatred and too impulsive. She should restrain herself and not be too indulgent.
As the saying went, every hatred had the origin. Hatred could be divided into different levels, which was not the same. It would be OK to kill Yan Xiaopeng only instead of hurting innocent people.
Cloud-reaching Crane knew Living Yama was full of crimes. For decades, he not only killed Zhang Yunyan"s parents, but also did harm to plenty of families. He deserved to die.
He warned Zhang Yunyan that the other people in family Yan were different from Living Yama. She could not be angry with them because of Yan Xiaopeng.
Although Yan Feiying and Yan Feilong also had inferiority, they were not as vicious as their father. Just give them some warnings or punishments.
Those weak women and young children were even more irrelevant. Yunyan should not hurt those innocent people.
Mentioning the family hatred, Zhang Yunyan was hateful with anger on her beautiful face.
She snorted and said, "I feel great pain when thinking of my parents" tragic death. I can not wait to kill Yan Xiaopeng! Please be at ease, my brother. I have my own standards and will not kill anyone without consideration."
"Well, my sister, you are clever and I do not have to speak too much. You should not let anyone know I have a relation with this issue. Please keep this in mind! I still have some important things, so please excuse me!" Then, Bai Yunfei made a bow and said goodbye.
Zhang Yunyan looked at the flying away figure of her savor and felt both envious and sad.
In this expedition, she did not complete her family hatred, but unexpectedly met a famous high-ranking expert. It left her a deep imprint and would not be erased in this life.
Last night, she could have slaughtered Yan Xiaopeng with her sword. However, she believed his lie easily and fell into the trap of ecstasy. Her vow of revenge turned into bubbles. She was greatly tortured by painful and desperate emotions.
Today, she was dying under the sword of Living Yama, but she had never expected that a sudden change took place that Bai Yunfei fell down to her like a G.o.d and saved her from the hands of death. She was really appreciated for his life-saving.
Whether hatred or grat.i.tude could not erase the shadow of her mind.
Her savor Bai Yunfei, little monk Shikong, the male and female demons she met last time, vixen Misty Flower and so on were all good at martial arts. Compared with them, she could only look upon them.
She thought of her friend Xiao Tianlong and the beautiful elf Samuume in the alienated world and felt envious.
In her envy, she was also very frustrated. She hated that she was inferior to those experts and elves in cultivation and had no way to improve this soon. Besides, she could not learn a tactic to kill the enemy at one stroke.
When Zhang Yunyan thought of this, she felt like a dream and prayed that she could have comparable skills like them to cultivate magical tactics.
If she could reach this, she would be more confident in revenge and could have abilities to travel in Jianghu and do good things for people. She could also do what she wanted and be courageous to reverse any crisis in a dangerous situation.
However, dreams were just dreams. It was useless no matter how fascinating it was. She knew deeply that without the instruction of high-level experts, she would never learn those magical methods.
Although it was just a beautiful dream to improve her skills and she could not reach this dream in a short time, Zhang Yunyan could not forget and was always dreaming about it, praying for it, and yearning for it.
This was her wish since childhood, but could not be realized until now. She was very depressed and felt that she had no fate with those high-level experts. She could only dream about it and could not reach it.
Although she had become friends of life and death with Xiao Tianlong and Samuume, she could not ask them for more help. She could not worship them. It was also her fantasy.
Zhang Yunyan thought of the little monk Shikong and also felt pain in her mind. Her savor had been killed by Jiuyou Sage and his group of monsters. He was really pitiful. Shikong was so young and capable. It was really painful to see him pa.s.s away.
If she was not whimsical and tried to worship the "immortal", she would not suffer that horrible experience and her friend Turtle Elf would not die.
If she did not go to Qinglong Mountain to wait for the "immortal", the little monk Shikong would not be caught by Jiuyou Sage. Perhaps, he would just be raped by the vixen Misty Flower. He would not die miserably.
It was all gone. The things should not happen had taken place. It was useless to blame herself. She could only be grief.
However, Zhang Yunyan would not give her dream to worship an expert for more than a decade and would continue to pursue it. She prayed to have a chance to realize her long-cherished wish as soon as possible.
Yunyan thought of her own path of revenge. She was both emotional and frustrated. Every time, things would go wrong and accidents would happen, which would also be some terrible experience.
Why? Why could not she complete the vow to avenge her parents?
The experience of revenge in Yan Mansion was even more terrible, which could be called to be at a close. She seemed to have been through h.e.l.l.
Under the s.l.u.tty of Living Yama, she got badly hurt. It was fortunate for her to keep her life. She had no more ability to kill her enemy Yan Xiaopeng. She could only leave Shuanghe County with full of hatred and unwillingness.
She must pay close attention to the treatment of injuries and adjust her body and mind. She hoped to recover soon, so she could complete the long-cherished wish for revenge for her parents.
Yan Xiaopeng was eager to get rid of his b.l.o.o.d.y enemy and asked the government for help, posting criminal Yun Feiyan"s notices everywhere to arrest her.
In order to calm down to treat her wounds, she left this rich place and returned to the remote Qingshan Villa. There were familiar folks with strong family ties and simple customs. They got along well with each other. It was a good place for her to heal her wounds.
She calmed down and took the time to get the treatment. She started cultivating when she just felt better and started to plan her expedition again.
Yunyan often thought of the wish since her childhood—she hoped to worship a high-level expert to learn magical skills. She had been yearning for this and dreaming about this, praying that she could realize this beautiful dream one day.
She thought of Cloud-reaching Crane Bai Yunfei and the little monk Shikong, so as to the male and female demons who hurt her before. She felt both envious and eager. She also sighed for her plain skills. Even so, she dared not slow down and kept cultivation.
Zhang Yunyan thought of the Turtle Elf who saved her before and her another savor Shikong. She felt pain in her mind. The two savors were killed by the old demon Jiuyou Sage. They were too poor.
Especially the Turtle Elf, it died for saving her. She felt deeply guilty and self-blamed when thinking of it.
Yunyan felt stupid for her visiting the "immortal". She felt both regretful and sad. Because of this unreasonable illusion, her friend lost its life.
About ten days later, her wounds had healed, her body basically recovered, and her mind got better. Yunyan was cultivating while thinking about revenge.
A few days later, she was ready. She was eager and did not hope to delay this. She stepped onto the road of revenge.
Along the way, Zhang Yunyan stayed outside overnight. Sometimes, she was walking along the roads. Sometimes, she was going through the jungles, rushing towards Yan Village in Shuanghe County.
On this day, the sun was hot and sultry. Yunyan was sweating when she was walking. She saw the river not far away. She decided to swim in the river for a while to avoid the hot weather.
Yunyan came to the river and saw the water was clear. She also saw that fishes swam happily in the river. She was really happy and immediately jumped into the water.
She hurriedly swam in the river, but chocked by the water when taking a breath. She was scared and held her breath to get out of the water. She felt uncomfortable and stunned because of being chocked. She could not stop coughing and hurried to get onto the sh.o.r.e.
Zhang Yunyan was very puzzled. How could she be chocked after getting the fish-like ability?
She looked at the river. It was crystal clear. Except for fishes playing, there was nothing. It was nothing special about the river.
Strange, how could this thing happen? Did, did she lose her fish-like ability again?
Yunyan was puzzled and unable to confirm. She thought for a while and got into the river. She tried to take a breath, but still was choked by the water and felt uncomfortable. She rushed out of the water and continued coughing.
She climbed up to the sh.o.r.e and frowned to look at the water. She was depressed. She had to admit that she had lost this fish-like ability. She could not move under the water like a fish.
Yunyan was puzzled and disappointed. How could this happen? Why did she lose her existing skills?
Since she had this magical ability, she was overjoyed. It was a great comfort for her mind to get magical skills. However, she gained this cherished skill in a miracle way while lost it in a weird way. It was confusing, more disappointing, and frustrating.
This magical skill was gotten obtained from the cave in the Jade Dragon Lake of her hometown. Yunyan fled out of the cave and came back to Jade Dragon Lake to certificate it. She could confirm it.
The strange thing was why she lost this skill without any sign and when she lost it.
Zhang Yunyan did not know and no one could know.
The fish-like skill gained in a very magical way. She did not know the reasons. Now, it was also a miracle to lose this skill. She still did not know the reason.
The change to lose what she gained was really weird. It was incredible and a mysterious mystery.
Yunyan was very depressed. She did not get any improvement in cultivation, but lost a rare skill. How could not she be depressed?
Since it was so, it was useless to be upset. She could only accept reality. She could not give up or do nothing because of losing a skill.
Besides, that skill did not belong to her. At that time, she could survive in the water because she could swim like a fish. She should be satisfied.
Although Zhang Yunyan was very unhappy and did not feel discouraged, she did not give up and would not change her mind. She would rush to Yan Village to kill Yan Xiaopeng for revenge for her parents and those who were killed.
Along the way, she sweated down and looked at the clear and flowing water. She sighed and knew that she could not get into the water in the future.
Yunyan was upset when thinking of it. That was such a magical skill. She did not know why she lost it. How could it happen?
She still felt that her fate was not good. She not only had no ability to cultivate magical skills, but also could not keep the magical skills she had. Everything was like floating smoke and pa.s.sing clouds. It was just pa.s.sing by.
She sighed and looked at the blue sky and white clouds. She wiped her sweat on her face and went into the woods to escape the sun.
Yunyan sat under the tree, resting while wiping the sweat. When she thought of her enemy, she was crying in grief and indignation. She thought that she was plain in her cultivation. She also lost the magical skill in the water. She felt even more anxious and sighed silently...
Suddenly, her eyes stared at one place and did not move. Her expression was somewhat different.
"En? Why am I meeting it?"
It was too unexpected for it to show up, which made her feel doubted.
