Chapter 2010 Portrait of an old friend
Following the purple-clothed girl to the second floor of the inner cabinet, Ye Chunyang found that the layout here was much simpler than the first floor. There were no extra furnishings, but there were various secret compartments on the four walls, which emitted forbidden fluctuations.
Ye Chunyang felt it slightly and was a little surprised.
These restrictions did not look strong, but they contained an extremely dangerous aura, which was the kind of thing that would destroy the things in the restrictions once triggered.
Ye Chunyang guessed that those restrictions should contain various news collected by Zixia Pavilion.
"Senior, please wait here for a while. I will get you the news about Leiyunchi." The purple-clothed girl said with a smile, and walked to a place in the pavilion.
Ye Chunyang nodded and waited there.
He looked around casually and found that there were at least hundreds of secret compartments here, which showed the rich collection of Zixia Pavilion.
Ye Chunyang just took a look and did not intend to explore without authorization. Although this girl was only at the stage of transformation, she must have the confidence to be able to take charge of this Zixia Pavilion.
Of course, it was not that Ye Chunyang was afraid of the other party, but that the information collection was sealed by restrictions. Even if he could forcibly break these restrictions, the information inside would disappear instantly when the restrictions were destroyed. Doing so would be meaningless to him.
After waiting for the girl in the pavilion for a while and not seeing her come out, Ye Chunyang planned to find a place to sit down.
At this moment, he saw a portrait on the wall and his eyes suddenly focused.
The portrait was of a woman, stepping on fairy clouds, wearing a green long skirt, and her face was extremely moving. Ye Chunyang was shocked when he saw this portrait.
"Is this portrait... her?"
Ye Chunyang stared at the woman in the portrait, and a memory that had been hidden for hundreds of years came up, as if he had returned to the scene at the beginning of the human world.
"What are you looking at, senior?" The purple-clothed girl came out of the cabinet and saw Ye Chunyang staring at the portrait on the wall in a daze, and asked in confusion.
Ye Chunyang came back to his senses and looked at the girl, saying, "Is the person in the portrait you?"
The reason for this question is that the woman in the portrait is exactly the same as the purple-clothed girl, but if you look closely, the expression between her eyebrows is different.
The purple-clothed girl was surprised to hear this, then shook her head and smiled, "The person in the portrait is not me, but my grandmother."
"Grandmother?" Ye Chunyang's heart moved, and he asked again, "Is her surname Su?"
The purple-clothed girl looked even more surprised when she heard this.
He looked at Ye Chunyang with a strange look and said, "That's right, my grandmother's name is Su Xueyuan, how did you know it?"
"Su Xueyuan..." Ye Chunyang's heart trembled.
It was indeed her.
I didn't expect that there was news about her in the spirit world.
Seeing the strangeness on Ye Chunyang's face, the purple-clothed girl felt more and more strange, and looked at him suspiciously and said, "Senior, do you know my grandmother?"
Ye Chunyang was shocked and didn't speak.
Su Xueyuan, how could he not know her?
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the scene in his mind when he was just a little chef in the Su family at the beginning of the human world and was selected into the immortal sect.
He used to be just an ordinary mortal, but his fate changed because of that woman.
Back then, Su Xueyuan brought him to the immortal sect and allowed him to enter the immortal path. However, this woman was both good and evil. It was hard to tell whether she was using him or really wanted to lead him to the immortal path.
"Senior?" The purple-clothed girl called softly.
Ye Chunyang looked at the purple-clothed girl. He didn't expect that the other party was Su Xueyuan's descendant, which surprised him deeply.
Retracting his thoughts, Ye Chunyang said calmly: "Your grandmother is an old friend of mine. It's just that I haven't seen her for a long time. Seeing that you look similar to her, and there is her portrait here, I just reminisce a little."
The purple-clothed girl was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly said after a moment: "It turns out that the senior and my grandmother are old acquaintances. No wonder the senior looked like that just now."
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, fairy. I wonder how your grandmother is now? Is she still alive?" Ye Chunyang smiled and said.
He really didn't expect to see Su Xueyuan's portrait here, which shows that she also ascended from the human world to the spiritual world and left descendants here.
I just don't know if she is safe now.
Although Ye Chunyang has some prejudice against that woman, at the same time, she has a deep influence on him, and Ye Chunyang can't really erase it.
The purple-clothed girl sighed when she heard it.
Seeing this, Ye Chunyang's heart slightly sank, "Why, is your grandmother no longer alive?"
The purple-clothed girl was silent for a long time, and then said: "To be honest, I don't know much about my grandmother's situation."
"What does the fairy mean by this?" Ye Chunyang was puzzled.
The purple-clothed girl looked at him and said: "Speaking of which, I have never mentioned my grandmother's situation to anyone. If you want to know, please sit down and wait for me to tell you slowly."
Ye Chunyang hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay."
Since he ascended from the human world to the spirit world, he has not met Su Xueyuan for hundreds of years. He thought he would never meet her again in this life, but he didn't expect to have news of her here.
He had a relationship with this woman before, and since Ye Chunyang had seen it, he couldn't turn a blind eye.
The purple-clothed girl handed Ye Chunyang a cup of tea, smiled and said, "Junior Lin Yan'er, may I know your name, senior?"
Ye Chunyang looked at the portrait on the wall, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and said, "Ye Chunyang."
"Pah."
The teacup in the girl's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
She opened her eyes slightly, revealing three parts of shock and seven parts of surprise, looking at Ye Chunyang and said: "Senior is Ye Chunyang?"
Ye Chunyang frowned and wondered, "Yes, what's wrong?"
The girl suddenly showed joy and stepped forward and said: "So, senior is Mr. Bai's master!"
Ye Chunyang was stunned when he heard it, "Fairy knows Bai Feng?"
"Of course I know him. Mr. Bai stayed in our Wuxian City for a while not long ago and taught many people how to practice!" The purple-clothed girl seemed to think of something that made her extremely excited, and her expression could not hide her excitement.
Ye Chunyang felt strange in his heart. He didn't expect that Bai Feng had such a big name in Wuxian City.
But thinking back, Bai Feng did say that he had been to the Western Regions before, and now it seems that he should have been to Wuxian City. With the strength of the masters of Lingxian Mansion, it is not surprising that he can come here.
The purple-clothed girl said with a smile: "If you had told me your identity earlier, I would have given you any information you wanted from my Zixia Pavilion."
Ye Chunyang was stunned. It seemed that Bai Feng still had a lot of influence in Wuxian City!
He smiled bitterly and said: "Fairy, why don't you tell me about your grandmother first? How is she now?"
The purple-clothed girl put away her excitement, but her eyes when she looked at Ye Chunyang had changed a lot.
After a pause, she looked at the portrait on the wall, and after a moment, she said: "To be honest with you, my grandmother has been missing for nearly two hundred years."
"Missing?" Ye Chunyang frowned, "What's going on?"
"I don't know the details." Lin Yan'er shook her head, "According to my family, my grandmother was not originally from the spirit world. She came to the human emperor realm of the spirit world two hundred years ago and met my grandfather, but she suddenly disappeared shortly thereafter."
A trace of complex emotions flashed through Ye Chunyang's heart.
Did she finally become a Taoist partner with someone else?
Lin Yan'er paused, then suddenly looked up at Ye Chunyang and said, "My grandfather once said that my grandmother had also inquired about the news of the Thunder Cloud Pool before she disappeared. Later, she left alone and never appeared again, so she was very likely to have been there."
"She is also looking for the Thunder Cloud Pool?" Ye Chunyang was surprised when he heard this.
"Yes." Lin Yan'er put the scroll in front of Ye Chunyang and said, "This contains all the information about the Thunder Cloud Pool. If you want to go there, I have an unwelcome request. I wonder if you can agree?"
Ye Chunyang looked at the scroll and could roughly guess what Lin Yan'er was going to say.
He took the scroll and said, "You say."
Lin Yan'er's eyes were excited, and she said, "Since you are an old friend of my grandmother, if you are going to the Thunder Cloud Pool this time, I wonder if you can inquire about my grandmother's news on my behalf. If you know her whereabouts, please let me know. I will definitely reward you handsomely."
Ye Chunyang frowned, and a deep concentration flashed in his eyes.
Lin Yan'er looked at him with some expectation and some doubt. Finally, she sighed and said, "Of course, it is still uncertain whether my grandmother's disappearance is really related to the Thunder Cloud Pond. It would be great if you could get the clues about her. If not, it doesn't matter."
Ye Chunyang's expression was a little deep. He neither agreed to Lin Yan'er nor refused. He just weighed the scroll and said, "Can I open this scroll now?"
Lin Yan'er looked at the scroll, laughed, and said, "According to the previous rules of Zixia Pavilion, any news needs to be paid before it can be opened. However, since you are Mr. Bai's master and an old friend of my grandmother, this rule is naturally waived. This news is given to you by me."
Ye Chunyang was a little surprised to hear this, but he didn't act pretentiously. "In that case, thank you Fairy Lin."
Lin Yan'er curved her eyebrows and smiled lightly.
Ye Chunyang did not hesitate to open the scroll and check it out.
The scroll contained dense text and some complex maps. Some of them looked familiar. Thinking back carefully, it was the Western Desert that he had walked through when he came to Wuxian City before.
And somewhere in the desert, there was a mysterious thunder pool marked, with detailed annotations and locations around it.
"It is indeed the Thunder Cloud Pool."
Ye Chunyang was delighted to see this. With this information, he would be much smoother in going to the Thunder Cloud Pool.
After putting away the scroll, he looked at Lin Yan'er and said, "This news is exactly what Ye wants. Fairy generously gave it to me. Ye is very grateful."
"Senior, you are welcome." Lin Yan'er curved her eyebrows and smiled gently.
Ye Chunyang nodded slightly, put away the scroll, and was about to get up and say goodbye.
"Senior, wait a minute."
At this time, Lin Yan'er suddenly said.
