Hearing Mu Tianzhi's words, Ye Li touched his nose a little embarrassed, but then immediately thought of something, and asked: "You just said Emperor Caiyi, isn't her name Dongfang Caiyi?"

Mu Tianzhi nodded and shook his head, "Her real name is indeed Dongfang Caiyi, and she is the granddaughter of the head of the Dongfang family.

At that time, a strange case occurred in the Dongfang family, which was famous for its formations, and thousands of people in the entire Dongfang family were slaughtered in one night, and the only person who survived was the emperor Caiyi, that is, Dongfang Caiyi.

Emperor Tianyao, the lord of the Imperial City, is a sworn brother with Dongfang Caiyi's father, and when he took people to rescue Dongfang's family, he found that Dongfang Caiyi was the only one alive, so he adopted her and raised her as his own daughter, so most people call her Emperor Caiyi. ”

Ye Li was born in a small remote family, and he didn't know much about the things that were circulating between these big families, he had heard some things from Qi Wei before, and now after listening to Mu Tianzhi's explanation, he said: "Brother Mu, the Dongfang family is also a big family, how could it be wiped out overnight, who is this murderer?"

Mu Tianzhi said: "The Dongfang family is a first-class family, this family is proficient in various ancient formations, if you talk about combat effectiveness, with the cooperation of the formation, the Dongfang family is far superior to most of the first-class families."

However, such a powerful family was wiped out overnight, and this incident naturally caused an uproar in the rivers and lakes.

Everyone was speculating about what kind of force was doing this, and the forces that could slaughter the Dongfang family overnight, except for the four holy lands, there was really no one else.

However, the relationship between the Dongfang family and the Four Holy Lands has always been relatively good, and they themselves have no ambitions, and their reputation in the rivers and lakes is quite high, so the Four Holy Lands have no reason to trouble them at all.

So this matter has become a mystery, and until now no one knows what happened that night and who slaughtered the Dongfang family. ”

Hearing Mu Tianzhi's explanation, Ye Li finally had a further understanding of Dongfang Caiyi's life experience.

Thinking of the cold expression on Dongfang Caiyi's face, as well as the pain and sadness she hid under the cold, Ye Qizhong couldn't help but sigh lightly.

"Alas, Ye Li, do you know how famous Dongfang Caiyi is among the big forces in the rivers and lakes?

She is recognized as the first beauty in the minds of our younger generation, if it weren't for her identity as the adopted daughter of Emperor Tianyao, and her personality is as cold as Xuanbing, it is estimated that anyone who chases her can surround the Imperial City.

And you, a lucky guy, actually saved her like this without even knowing the identity of the other party, and fought with her.

To tell you the truth, if I tell you about this, you will definitely be hunted to death by the talents of various families. ”

Hearing Mu Tianzhi's words, Ye Li couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "Brother Mu, what you said is too exaggerated, how can anyone chase me to death for such a thing?"

Mu Tianzhi glanced at him angrily, and said: "You are really in the blessing and don't know the blessing, if you don't believe me, we can make a bet, I will spread this matter, you can see if anyone comes to trouble you."

I'm willing to bet that in this Imperial City alone, there are countless people looking for you to duel, and you won't even be able to spend a day in peace. ”

Seeing that Mu Tianzhi's tone was accurate, Ye Li didn't dare to try, and hurriedly said: "Forget it, Brother Mu, I don't want to be unable to be peaceful every day because of the jealousy of the wind."

If the reputation of the Oriental girl is really so loud, then the matter of me holding her should be rotten in your heart, so as not to cause me trouble. ”

While speaking, Ye Li saw that there seemed to be disciples of the Imperial City around him looking towards them, and he hurriedly suppressed his voice with a spirit, for fear that someone next to him would hear it.

Soon, the two came to the gate of the west courtyard in the west of the city.

After informing the guards at the gate of the West Courtyard of his identity, the guards immediately found a subordinate and led Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi towards the courtyard.

Soon, they came to the front of a large house, in which sat a middle-aged man dressed in a deacon's robe.

"Deacon Liu, these two are new disciples this time. ”

The servant reported to the middle-aged man in the room.

The middle-aged man glanced up at the two of them, waved his hand and retreated, and then said to the two: "Someone has already sent a message just now, saying that the two of you have been assigned to our West Courtyard."

I am Liu Yuntian, the deacon of the West Courtyard who is responsible for arranging the living of the disciples, and I will take you to meet Elder Mu of the Inner Court first, he is the dean of the West Courtyard. ”

Liu Yuntian stood up as he spoke, and then prepared to take Ye Li and the two out of the big house.

Ye Li and the others hurriedly saluted Liu Yuntian, and then followed him out of the big house and walked towards the other side of the west courtyard.

Soon, the three of them came to a relatively quiet bamboo forest behind the west courtyard.

Liu Yuntian stood at the mouth of the bamboo forest and shouted inward: "Old Mu, I came to report with two newcomers. ”

The voice came into the bamboo forest, and a response was quickly heard from inside, a slightly hoarse voice said slowly: "It's Yuntian, come in." ”

After hearing the response inside, Liu Yuntian hurriedly took Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi into the bamboo forest.

Crossing a path, Ye Li and the two soon saw a small bamboo building, and an old man in gray with a beard and chest was standing at the door of the bamboo house, looking at the three of them with a smile.

Liu Yuntian seemed to have great respect for the old man, and the moment he saw the old man, the expression on his face became very solemn.

"Old Mu!"

Liu Yuntian saluted the old man with his fists, and then turned to Ye Li and the others: "This is Dean Mu, you should say hello to the old man." ”

Hearing Liu Yuntian's words, Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi hurriedly bowed respectfully to the gray-clothed old man, and said, "The junior Ye Li (Mu Tianzhi) has seen Dean Mu. ”

Dean Mu looked at the three of them and smiled slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite, you all come in." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the bamboo building, and motioned for the three of them to follow him.

Liu Yuntian took Ye Li and Mu Tianyi into the bamboo building together, and suddenly an antique room full of quiet charm appeared in front of the three of them.

Dean Mu pointed to the bamboo chair next to him and said, "Yuntian, there are two little guys, you all sit down." ”

The three of them heard his greeting and hurriedly sat down on the bamboo chairs next to them.

After Dean Mu also sat down, he looked Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi up and down.

After looking at it for a while, he said: "Yes, you two look full of energy, your eyes are powerful, you don't seem to have the slightest sense of wandering, and your heart is still good."

This time, Qi Wei and the others sent me two good seedlings. ”
