123: True face, old friend

Yang Yi and the others left the Purple River Valley.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had finally gotten rid of his enemies.

Everyone couldn't stay with Yang Yi forever.

Since Yang Yi was already safe, everyone prepared to bid farewell and leave.

At their parting, Yang Yi looked at the group of masked individuals before him.

He first expressed his gratitude, then asked them who they were and why they had helped him.

He asked if they could reveal their names and backgrounds so that he could repay their life-saving kindness in the future.

The masked figures exchanged smiles.

The masked old man said faintly, "We've been together for several days."

"Do you really not know who I am?"

"I really don't know."

Yang Yi spread his hands, feeling a bit speechless.

He truly didn't know who this old man in front of him was.

He had never heard his voice, nor had he seen the techniques he displayed.

As for the masked woman, he knew even less.

The old man shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

He pulled off his mask.

Upon seeing this person, Yang Yi was both surprised and felt it was perfectly normal.

He hadn't expected this old man to make a move, but he felt it was normal because he was likely the only one who could save him.

This old man was precisely the Tiancan Old Man from Duobao Pavilion.

Although the Tiancan Old Man had no direct relation to him, he had a good relationship with Haitang, and they were also in a cooperative relationship.

Presumably, Haitang had asked the Tiancan Old Man to come out and save him.

Yang Yi then looked at the other masked woman beside him.

Since the old man was from Duobao Pavilion, then this woman must be from Luoyue Sect.

He just didn't know who she was, whether she was the Sect Master or someone else.

The masked woman unveiled her face.

Yang Yi was slightly startled because he didn't recognize this person.

At this moment, another woman beside her took off her mask.

Yang Yi was very familiar with this person; it was Yue Lingxin.

Yue Lingxin ran up to the woman, took her arm, and said with a hint of triumph, "This is my Junior Martial Uncle."

Yang Yi thought for a moment, then also called her Junior Martial Uncle, following Yue Lingxin's lead.

He cupped his hands to thank everyone.

They told him to be careful on his journey and said no more, parting ways there.

Yang Yi prepared to return to the Yang family to give them the treasures he carried, so they could quickly improve their strength.

At the same time, Yang Yi remembered another matter.

At that time, he had a good discussion with Luoyue Sect and Haitang, agreeing to cooperate and split any obtained Treasure Trove equally.

He wondered if that agreement still counted and how many treasures they had obtained.

Would he split his with them, or would he split theirs?

In any case, Yang Yi had already made up his mind.

If they came to him about this, he would only give them some worthless junk.

He wouldn't give them anything good.

After walking less than twenty li, Yang Yi suddenly felt someone following him.

He couldn't help but stop, his steps alert and vigilant.

A moment later, a clear whistle came from behind an ancient tree.

Immediately, Yue Lingxin came skipping out from behind, her joyful laughter echoing through the empty forest, exceptionally pleasant, like a singing oriole.

"Why is it you?" Yang Yi asked, quite puzzled.

Yue Lingxin jogged over to Yang Yi, winking at him.

"Why can't it be me?"

"I came on my Revered Master's orders to divide the Treasure Trove with you."

Yang Yi was surprised.

To entrust such an important task to a little girl, he wondered if the Sect Master was too confident in him or too confident in Yue Lingxin.

Yang Yi decided to strike first, stating that he didn't have much good stuff.

"Although I also entered the divine gate, I didn't get anything good, only some useless Medicinal Pills and a few broken weapons."

"If you want them, I'll give them to you."

As he spoke, he pulled out a handful of Medicinal Pills from his bosom.

As for the bundle on his back, he didn't open it.

Yue Lingxin glanced at the tightly bound bundle on his back, pursing her lips and chuckling.

"Alright, alright, no need to pretend in front of me."

"My Revered Master said that whatever good things you obtained have nothing to do with us."

"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to escape successfully."

"Moreover, we obtained more things than you."

"According to our previous agreement, we will give you a portion."

As she spoke, she took a bundle from behind her and handed it to Yang Yi.

"This is what we're giving you."

"Keep it safe, don't lose it."

Taking the bundle, Yang Yi weighed it in his hand, feeling it was quite heavy.

He couldn't help but feel a bit awkward inside, yet his words showed no sign of embarrassment.

"Then thank you very much."

"How about you take these Medicinal Pills?"

"We said we'd split it, I can't give you nothing at all."

Yue Lingxin rolled her eyes in disgust, jumping back a step.

"Alright, alright, don't pretend in front of me."

"Anyone can see through your little schemes."

"If you don't want to give us good stuff, just say so directly."

"We didn't say we wanted your things."

"Don't try to fool us with this junk."

"If you want to give us something, give us some of the things from inside your bundle."

Yang Yi shrugged his shoulders, chuckling.

"There's nothing good in the bundle either."

Although he said this, he showed no intention of taking off the bundle.

Yue Lingxin snorted, waving her hand at him.

"Alright, we're going back."

"Be careful on your way."

"Oh, and Wang Xifeng won't let you go."

"Although you escaped, the Yang family can't run."

"I think you'd better prepare early."

As soon as Yue Lingxin left, Yang Yi prepared to pack his things and return to the Yang family.

Just as he was about to put the things Yue Lingxin had given him into his bundle, a soft laugh came from not far away.

Yang Yi looked up slightly and saw someone standing on a tree not far away.

This person was Haitang.

He didn't know when she had hidden there.

He felt that Haitang must have heard his conversation with Yue Lingxin clearly.

Yue Lingxin wasn't easy to fool, but Luoyue Sect was generous; they didn't bother him, so they didn't ask for his things.

But what would Haitang do?

Yang Yi didn't know.

Based on his understanding of this woman, it would probably not be easy to get any benefit from her.

Haitang flew to Yang Yi, first sizing up the treasures in his hand for a few moments, then shaking her head slightly.

"You're really stingy and truly a scoundrel."

"We clearly agreed to cooperate, so why did you cooperate with others?"

"You men, none of you are any good."

After saying that, she took out a few treasures and placed them in front of Yang Yi.

"These are the things I collected."

"I'm giving them to you now."

"We agreed to split them equally."

"Although I am a woman, I must also keep my word and not break my promise."
