in this area.Thirty-seven seats were set up around the sword testing platform, with the tallest one being a viewing stand reserved for the imperial family and the officiating hall.The other thirty-si..."Young master, why are you running Why didn't you say hello when you left"

Yuhua Ling's face was full of innocence, as if she didn't know at all that Ye Bufan had just wanted to abandon her.

"Uh..."

"Yè Búfán wore a look of helplessness, "Xiǎolíng'er, we really aren't compatible. This is truly just a misunderstanding."

"I used a teleport scroll and accidentally knocked off your mask. I'm really sorry, it wasn't intentional."

Yuhua Ling tugged at his arm, calling out in a sweet and adorable voice.

"It doesn't matter what the reason is, all that matters is that fate brought you to me. It was meant to be."

"How can you just say that's unclear"

"I have important things to do," Ye Bufan said.

Yuhua Ling nodded: "It's okay, I can help you!"

"What I'm about to do is very dangerous, I only escaped just now because someone was chasing me and I used a teleporting talisman."

“It’s fine now, I said I was good at this, I can help you.”

Yuhua Ling wore a solemn expression, "With me here, no one will hurt you."

"I..."

Ye Bufan now understood that persuading this little girl was almost impossible. He could only find a chance to sneak away secretly.

"Alright then, let's go together."

He identified the direction and then flew towards the Crystal Empire.

Yuhualing followed closely behind, the little girl's movements seemed leisurely, but her speed was in no way slow. No matter how hard Yefan tried, he couldn't shake her off.

After walking for a whole hour, Ye Bufan felt a twinge of fatigue from the rapid pace.

Ke Yuhua acted as if she hadn't done anything at all, looking this way and that with a sweet smile on her face. There was no sign of fatigue whatsoever.

Ye Bufan was quite surprised. This little girl looked almost no different from ordinary people, he couldn't feel her aura at all, but she was surprisingly fast.

No matter what, it's impossible to leave the opponent behind with just speed. I'll have to think of another way.

Suddenly, he reached for his stomach and grimaced in pain.

"No, no, my stomach hurts, I need to use the restroom."

"Little Master, what's wrong"

Yuhua Ling looked at him with concern.

"I'm fine, I probably just have a stomachache. I just need to use the restroom."

Then I'll go with you!

"No, no need for that. I can handle this myself, you don't have to come with me."

Ye Bufan spoke, and directly plunged into the nearby dense forest.

"Young master, hurry up, I'm waiting for you here."

Looking back, Yu Hua Ling stood there waving at him constantly.

I can't help but say that this little girl is both beautiful and sweet, she's really likeable. Ye Bufan felt a little reluctant in his heart.

But no matter what, it's really not possible to have the other party by your side. Once danger arises, you'll only have a single Hundred-Li Escape Talisman left. You can't endanger them.

Thinking about this, he found a huge rock and hid behind it. He peeked out secretly and saw that Yu Hualing was still standing in the same place.

Then, without any further hesitation, he took cover behind a boulder and dashed away towards the distance.

This time, he ran for half an hour straight. Even with his deep cultivation, Ye Bufan had a bead of sweat on his forehead.

He turned back to look, but there was no sign of the little girl. He let out a long sigh of relief, "Finally got rid of her!"

Just then, a sweet voice rang in his ear.

"Young master, how did you get here Did you get lost after using the restroom"

Ye Bufan looked up and saw Yu Hualing sitting on a thick tree trunk in front of him, looking at him sweetly.

"Good heavens, is this a monster"

Ye Bufan raised his hand and slapped his forehead hard. He even used the Urine Shield, but it still didn't work.

"Little Master, what's wrong with you Are you getting a headache again Your body isn't well at all."

The little girl leaped down from the tree and came to his side, her stunningly beautiful face full of concern.

Ye Bufan shook his head. "How did you catch up to me"

Yuhua Ling looked very serious: "I waited for a while but didn't see the young master come out. I thought you must be lost, so I came to find you."

"How did you find me all the way out here" Ye Bufan asked in confusion.

He was indeed rather odd. He had used his divine sense to scan his entire body before, and hadn't found any traces of a mark planted on him. How did this little girl find him

Yu Hua Ling sweetly smiled: "Because I know your aura, you are my little lord. Your aura is unique and easy to find."

"Uh..."

Ye Bufan was speechless for a moment, following the smell. Did this little girl have a dog's nose

No, we have to figure out another way.

"Ouch, my stomach hurts again, I have to go to the bathroom again."

"Okay, then go ahead. I'll wait for you here. This time, be sure not to get lost!"

Yu Hualing smiled brightly, standing there as if she couldn't tell he was disguised.

Ye Bufan once again dove into the dense forest, this time choosing a secluded spot and even directly setting up several shielding barriers around it.

To ensure he wouldn't be discovered, he quickly cast a disguise spell, transforming his appearance to resemble Ye Tian's.

Then she changed into another outfit and took out a large bottle of perfume, spraying it all over herself from head to toe.

"This should be fine, I've changed my looks, clothes, and even my scent. I doubt you can find me now."

Ye Bufan examined himself from head to toe, making sure there were no flaws, before dissolving the barrier and running into the distance.

As he was about to turn back, a voice from the little girl came again, this time from miles away.

"Young Master, don't look any further, I'm here. I knew you'd get lost again."

Ye Bufan looked forward and saw the little girl sitting on a smooth boulder, playing with her long hair and giggling at him.

"I..."

He was taken aback for a moment, then donned an air of complete strangeness.

"Who are you Do you know me I don't think I've ever seen you before!"

The little girl jumped down from the rock and laughed with pure joy.

"Little sir, your serious expression is so cute, are you trying to cheer me up"

"That…"

Unable to feign confidence any longer, Ye Bufan met the other's unwavering gaze.

"How do you know it's me"

"I told you, I know your scent."

Ye Bufan was stunned: "But my scent has changed."

"Little Master, you are so foolish. I was talking about aura, not scent."

As long as you are still alive, your breath won't change.

Ye Bufan was speechless. He couldn't really die, could he It seemed like there was only one last option left.

He said, "Will you wait for me here"

"Well then, as long as young master doesn't abandon me, I'll do anything."

Yuhua Ling nodded seriously this time, not even asking him what he was going to do.

Ye Bufan no longer cared about anything else, and rushed forward at high speed. When he reached a few thousand meters away, he directly sacrificed the Nine Heavens this time.

No matter how fast the little girl was, she would eventually be overtaken by him since he was riding a mid-grade immortal artifact.

Thinking of this, he directly jumped up, his nine-day speed instantly reaching its peak, slashing through the sky and dashing away into the distance.

Ye Bufan looked around, but he couldn't see the little girl. He let out a long sigh of relief.

I'm so tired of being clinged to by this little girl, but thankfully I finally succeeded.

Although there is a bit of reluctance in my heart, this is undoubtedly the best outcome.

Just then, that sweet and familiar voice came from behind: "Young Master, is this your big boat It's so beautiful!"the palace.The deputy commander stepped forward and said, "Sir, I feel something is off about that Mr. Ye. He seems a little suspicious.""What's wrong" "Shouldn't a normal night's sleep leave you feel...
