405: The awkward senior sister

The Yaochi Disciples behind Liu Ruoxi immediately reacted, their eyes lighting up.

Wasn't this the perfect Opportunity for them to make an excuse to leave?

It was just as well, as they were having difficulty resisting the Ancient Restriction in the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

Leaving now was just right!

Otherwise, with so many people watching, even if the Saintess wanted to take action to capture Young Master Su, she would feel embarrassed.

As for the two Fairies by Young Master Su's side, they couldn't do anything about them.

The Saintess would have to rely on her own abilities.

However, they believed the Saintess could definitely defeat those two Fairies!

Li Xue seized the chance to approach Liu Ruoxi and directly suggested:

"Saintess, we are also gradually becoming unable to withstand the Ancient Restriction around here.

Why don't you explore the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest with Young Master Su and his companions!

I'll lead the Junior Sisters to explore the periphery of the Mysterious Fruit Forest!"

The other Yaochi Disciples chimed in cooperatively:

"Saintess, our strength is insufficient, so we won't continue following you into the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

The Restrictions here are of Soul Emergence Realm power. We're only at the Spirit Transformation Realm, we simply can't withstand them!"

"That's right, that's right~"

"We mustn't hold the Saintess back!

It's better to give up exploring the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest!"

"...This?"

Liu Ruoxi looked at the Yaochi Disciples with a trace of suspicion.

She felt they were secretly plotting something.

However, Senior Sister Li was right; the Ancient Restriction in the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest was indeed formidable, its power already reaching mid-stage Soul Emergence.

It wasn't something these Spirit Transformation Realm Junior Sisters could resist.

Continuing would be dangerous.

"Alright then, Senior Sister Li, I'll trouble you to lead the team!"

"No trouble at all, Saintess. Good luck!"

Li Xue waved her hand, saying with a beaming smile.

Then she led over a dozen Yaochi Disciples away, heading towards the periphery of the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

With the departure of the Yaochi Disciples,

only the four of them—Su Yun and the three women—remained nearby.

Originally, there had been some Cultivators following them from a distance.

But after entering the depths of the Mysterious Fruit Forest, powerful Ancient Restrictions were everywhere, so they couldn't continue following.

"Let's go, let's continue exploring!

Senior Sister Yulan, it's safer if I escort you while traveling!"

After speaking, Su Yun took Xie Yulan's hand and transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards the depths.

At this moment, Xie Yulan secretly rejoiced in her heart, a faint smile appearing on her lovely face.

As expected, Junior Brother Yun still cared about her the most.

So what if they were Dao Companions?

So what if she was the Yaochi Saintess?

He still cared most about her, his Senior Sister!

Liu Ruoxi and Leng Xirou closely followed behind.

Liu Ruoxi glanced at Xie Yulan, who was being led by Su Yun, feeling inexplicably displeased.

So she surveyed her surroundings and released her Divine Sense to probe, guarding against potential dangers.

As for Leng Xirou, she looked completely unconcerned at the somewhat smug Xie Yulan.

Just holding hands?

And she's that excited?

Su Yun was unaware of the strange atmosphere among the three women; he was currently searching everywhere for the Opportunity mentioned in Shen Linchuan's life script.

That Opportunity was on an ordinary spirit tree shrouded by a natural illusionary realm.

Knowing this characteristic made it easy to find.

He led the women, circling from one area to another, searching all around.

Half an hour later, Su Yun and the three women finally arrived at an area with ordinary spirit trees.

There were no spirit fruit trees nearby; it looked just like ordinary trees from the outside world.

But he could clearly sense the natural illusionary realm formed by the colorless illusionary spiritual power permeating the surroundings.

He estimated any Cultivator approaching would fall into a boundless illusionary realm.

It was much stronger than the Ancient Restriction they encountered upon first entering the Mysterious Fruit Forest, which had conjured a false Fiery Flame Fruit Tree.

"This is the place!"

"Here? Junior Brother Yun, are you looking for these ordinary spirit trees?

Aren't there plenty of these ordinary spirit trees outside?"

"Miss Yulan, these are not ordinary spirit trees~"

Leng Xirou suddenly spoke up.

"This whole area is a natural illusionary realm!

These 'ordinary spirit trees' are probably Illusion Wood Fruit Trees."

A pink spiritual light flashed in her beautiful eyes as she directly saw through the surrounding natural illusionary realm.

"Young Master Su, let me test this natural illusionary realm first!"

After speaking, Liu Ruoxi lightly stepped forward with lotus-like steps, entering the area where these ordinary spirit trees were located.

The scene before her eyes instantly transformed, becoming the scene from her childhood when she had just joined the Jade Pool Holy Land.

However, she could clearly realize she had fallen into an illusionary realm.

"Such a powerful natural illusionary realm, but its effect on me is average."

"Break!"

Immediately, her flawless spiritual power surged out. With a point of her delicate hand forward, she instantly dispelled the surrounding illusionary spiritual power. The surrounding scene shattered like a mirror.

She also returned to the outside world, arriving before several Illusion Wood Fruit Trees.

Seeing this, Leng Xirou also stepped forward directly, saying in a charming tone:

"Let me give it a try too!"

She took a step inside. The hazy illusionary spiritual power around surged towards her, yet she remained completely unaffected, passing through the surrounding natural illusionary realm in an instant.

But this was normal.

She possessed the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Bloodline and was most skilled in illusions; these natural illusionary realms couldn't affect her at all.

"Is it that simple?"

Seeing Liu Ruoxi and the other woman pass through this natural illusionary realm so easily, Xie Yulan also felt eager to try.

Moreover, aside from the natural illusionary realm, there didn't seem to be any other Restrictions here.

So the danger wasn't great.

Meaning she could also attempt to break through this natural illusionary realm.

"I'll try too!

Junior Brother Yun, watch me!"

Xie Yulan flashed forward and rushed into this natural illusionary realm.

"Senior Sister Yulan~"

Before Su Yun could finish speaking, that pink-and-white figure had already fallen into the illusionary realm.

"Forget it, let Senior Sister Yulan go!

If there's any danger, I can still intervene in time."

Immediately after, Su Yun also stepped directly into the natural illusionary realm.

Of course, the illusionary realm had no effect on him whatsoever.

Not to mention he had an Immortal Artifact protecting him.

Just his formidable Divine Sense alone meant even illusions of Tribulation Crossing Realm power would be ineffective against him.

As soon as he arrived by Xie Yulan's side, he saw a bright smile appear on her lovely face as she murmured:

"Haha, it's actually Junior Brother Yun!

Wonderful, Junior Brother Yun, I~

..."

Hearing this, Su Yun's forehead was covered in black lines.

What kind of illusionary realm had Xie Yulan fallen into?

Still giggling foolishly there?

Could she have been too deeply affected by the illusionary realm?

It seemed he had to intervene.

He immediately released his Divine Sense to help her dispel the surrounding illusionary spiritual power.

"Senior Sister Yulan, wake up quickly!"

"Junior Brother Yun, I~"

Xie Yulan immediately sobered up. Her eyes shone with an intense light, a faint blush appeared on her lovely face, and her delicate, rosy lips parted slightly as she exhaled a fragrant breath.

While she was in secluded Cultivation at the Xie Family, she suddenly received a message: someone had come to her door to propose marriage.

She was unwilling at first, but upon learning the person was Junior Brother Yun, she became incredibly excited and wanted to find Junior Brother Yun to ask if it was true.

Immediately after, just as she opened the door to her Immortal Cave, she saw Junior Brother Yun outside... it was truly... wait, something seemed off!

Xie Yulan suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, standing frozen in place.
