Yunyang finished washing up, and it was almost time for the morning class. "Senior Brother, let's go."
He acted quite positively today.
Yun Lin saw him moving freely and asked, "Is your leg fine now?"
Yun Yang bent down and touched his knee. It still hurt a little, but it was much better compared to yesterday. His senior brother had applied medicine for him, which helped reduce the swelling.
He immediately acted weakly, saying, "It will still hurt if I take a few more steps. Would Senior Brother carry me?"
This kid clearly wants to take advantage and act all innocent.
Seeing that Senior Brother didn't intend to carry him, Yun Yang quickly extended his arm and said, "Senior Brother, aren't you afraid that my knees will hurt and I will walk slowly? If we arrive late, Elder Li Jue might punish us again."
After hearing these words, Yun Lin finally lifted the person up in his arms.
Yunyang leaned against his senior martial brother's embrace, breathing in the familiar scent emanating from him. A strange restlessness stirred in his heart, and all that replayed in his mind were the memories of last night, when he kissed his senior martial brother.
This wasn't the first time that Senior Brother had held him like this, but now he unexpectedly didn't want to leave his embrace.
"Senior Brother." Just then, a disciple from the Xuan Yin Sect appeared at the door, noticing Senior Brother holding the Junior Brother, who obediently leaned against his chest. He was momentarily startled.
"What's the matter?" It was almost time for morning class, yet there was still a junior brother coming to find him. Yun Lin speculated that something must have happened.
The person finally recovered his senses and said, "Senior Brother, Second Brother and the others just caught a member of the demon race who trespassed into the sect near the cliff in the back mountain."
"Caught him?"
Upon hearing this news, both Yun Lin and Yun Yang were surprised. Wasn't Yun Yang staying peacefully in the arms of his senior martial brother? When did he get captured? Could it be that other members of the demon clan also invaded the Xuan Yin Sect?
The person nodded and said, "The demon clan has already been taken to the main hall by Second Senior Brother and the others, waiting for the Sect Master and the four Elders to handle them."
After a moment of astonishment, Yun Lin regained his composure. Yun Yang cautiously looked up at his senior martial brother, and to his surprise, there was no reaction at all from his senior martial brother upon learning that the captured demon clan member might have been the one who had kissed him last night.
Even if there were, they probably wanted to kill him.
When Yun Lin arrived at the main hall holding his junior martial brother, both the head of the Unseen Sect, the four elders, and almost all the disciples of the sect had gathered.
Stepping into the main hall, Yun Ling released Yun Yang and first paid his respects to his master and the four elders.
In order to avoid being accused by Elder Li Jue of not understanding propriety again, Yun Yang also followed the example of Senior Brother and paid his respects to them.
The changes in the two disciples, Xiaodao and Daodao, made the Headmaster Wuchen very satisfied, nodding in approval.
Then, pointing to the ground, he asked Yun Lin, "Yun Lin, are you sure that what you saw last night was the demon clan and not this fox demon?"
Yun Lin's gaze was originally searching for the demon clan youth who had disturbed him several times in the main hall, but he didn't find any trace of him. It was only when his master spoke that he shifted his line of sight in the direction his master's finger was pointing, to the feet of his second senior brother, Yun Ting.
At this moment, lying at Yunting's feet, was a fox that was completely crimson in color. It appeared to have suffered severe injuries, as its chest was heaving intensely, as if struggling to breathe.
This fox is clearly not an ordinary creature. Even if it were to revert back to its original form, Yun Lin could still discern it. "Master, though my cultivation is weak, I can still differentiate between demonic creatures and demonic races. This fox is not one of the demons I encountered last night."
After hearing the words of the senior martial brother, the disciples present felt uneasy one after another. The prestigious Xuan Yin sect, when did it become a place where demons and monsters could enter at will? Could it be that they were going to follow in the footsteps of the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits?
