Chapter 198: Li Yunlong
Li Ye stared at the woman for a few seconds, then silently moved his gaze away from her face.

Because, apart from the vaguely visible swan-like white neck, Li Ye could not see anything else.

Besides, it would be impolite to look at it again.

When Li Ye was about to speak, the woman spoke first:

"Are you Li Ye?"

Li Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard this, as if he was a little surprised that this woman knew him, but he was sure that he had never seen her before.

"I am Li Ye. I am very honored that you, the lady, have heard of me. But may I ask why you know my identity? What can I do for you?"

"Female knight? I'm not a female knight. My last name is Li."

"Okay, Fairy Li, what a coincidence, we both have the last name Li."

".My name is Li Qingmu."

"Okay, Fairy Li."

Li Qingmu frowned her delicate white eyebrows, and remained silent as she looked at the handsome and heroic young man in front of her who was quite good at talking. She had heard of Li Ye's reputation, and now it was a little difficult for her to connect the talkative boy in front of her with the image of the brave and talented young general in the rumors.

Then, she racked her brains for how to continue speaking, as she hadn't achieved her goal yet.

The overly fair skin dazzled Li Ye and he couldn't look directly at it. It was so white, too white, as white as frost and snow.

It's the first time you meet a girl, it's just a casual acquaintance, and you keep staring at her. That's very rude.

The atmosphere was very awkward for a while. Li Cunxiao, Xue Rengui and Luo Cheng were completely silent, like air.

Li Qingmu had been practicing in the mountains since he was a child. He was like a blank sheet of paper and had no idea what to do next. He put his hands together in front of his abdomen, and the wide sleeves covered his hands. He pinched his crystal-like fingers to ease the embarrassment, and kept muttering in his heart:

"What should I do now? I don't know what to say, ahhhh!"

She had been waiting here for a long time, and had been mentally preparing herself for a long time. She had finally convinced herself completely, but all of it was destroyed by Li Ye's few words.

On weekdays, apart from my parents, there would occasionally be an old Taoist priest or an old monk from the mountains who would come to visit me. I had never seen anyone else.

She stole a few glances at Li Ye's face. Li Ye's extremely handsome face added a hint of blush to her little face.

Although this boy has a bit of a tongue twister, he is indeed a bit too handsome.

She was silent for a while, cheered herself up, organized her words, mustered up her courage, looked up at Li Ye's handsome face and said:
"My father asked me to wait here for you, young master, and invites you to come into the mountains for a chat."

Li Ye's heart was slightly moved. Did they know he was coming? It was indeed not simple.

"May I know your father's name?"

"My father is Li Yunlong."

Li Qingmu pretended to be calm and spoke in a cold voice.

"It is indeed him. I wonder if the others are still here?"

The purpose of Li Ye's trip was to find someone. The old man of the Li family told him that there were several old friends of him and Li Ye's father living in Tianduan Mountain. Four of them were immortal spirits, and the hell of each of them was extremely hot. If Li Ye had enough ability, he could invite these people to come out of the mountain to help. If he succeeded, it would be of great help to his plan.

"That's such a coincidence, Fairy Li. The purpose of my trip is to visit your father. Thank you for taking us to visit him." Li Qingmu quickly led Li Ye and the three generals to bypass the waterfall in front of them, climb over the mountain along a winding mountain road, and after walking up the mountain for a quarter of an hour, what came into view was a simple small courtyard built halfway up the mountain.

The yard was not very big, but not very small either. There were three thatched huts in it. In the center of the yard were an old man and a middle-aged man.

The old man leaned back in a bamboo rocking chair, looking at the chessboard in front of him with a smile.

The middle-aged man on the opposite side of the chessboard frowned, thinking about how to crack the chess piece placed by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man had an elegant appearance, bright eyes, and a gentle yet powerful smile. His manners were elegant, and every move revealed a calm demeanor. His words and deeds were very decent, without the slightest rudeness or frivolity, but he also vaguely revealed a heroic spirit, quite like a Confucian general. He was wearing a simple black robe.

The old man was a Taoist priest with white hair and a youthful face. His hair was as white as snow, but his face was still as rosy as a child's, as if the years had left traces on him, but had not deprived him of his vitality. His eyes were deep and full of wisdom, as if he could see through all the secrets, making people dare not look directly at him. He was thin, but as tall as a pine tree, and every movement revealed extraordinary lightness and agility.

"Haha, the old monk hasn't come yet, it's really not fun for you to accompany me!"

The old Taoist priest looked at the middle-aged man who was thinking hard in front of him and laughed.

The old Taoist priest sitting on the rocking chair waved his hand and said to the middle-aged man:

"Yunlong, you've already lost, go entertain the guests."

The elegant middle-aged man did not continue to think about the chess game stubbornly, but stood up convinced and sighed.

"Yes, master."

"Grandmaster, father, I have brought Master Li here."

Li Qingmu bowed respectfully to the middle-aged man and the old Taoist priest and spoke softly.

Then, the middle-aged man called Yunlong turned his head to look at Li Ye and Li Qingmu, nodded, turned around and went behind a thatched hut.

The old Taoist motioned Li Ye and Li Qingmu to come over, then stood up and said to Li Qingmu with a smile:

"Xiao Qingmu, you're back. This is Li Ye, Mr. Li, right?"

"Master, yes, he is Li Ye."

The old Taoist nodded and said to Li Ye with a smile:
"Mr. Li, is it not rude to ask Xiao Qingmu to invite you and the generals to meet at my humble abode?"

"I guess these three are the young master's guardian spirits, Generals Xue Rengui, Li Cunxiao, and Luo Cheng. I am honored to meet you, old Taoist."

As he said this, he bowed respectfully to the three generals.

The three generals nodded slightly.

Li Ye took a deep look at the old Taoist priest and thought to himself, this old Taoist priest is not simple, he actually knows his background so well.
Then he removed the chessboard, took out a set of tea set from under the table and placed it in front of Li Ye, and Li Qingmu also took out a chair and placed it in front of Li Ye.

Li Ye thanked him quickly and sat down at the old Taoist's gesture.

"Excuse me, Senior, why did you ask me and the generals to come here? Is there something going on?"

Looking at the old Taoist priest who was making tea, Li Ye asked.

"The old Taoist's name is Li Guangxiao, his Taoist name is Xiangtian, and his guardian spirit is Li Chunfeng."
