Ji Lingxi pursed her lips and said, "Forget it. Even if he turns into a pile of … cough, that, he'll still be cute in your eyes. Who are you trying to fool? Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Shangguan Lingxiu chuckled and retorted, "You sound like you don't think the same way I do."
A glint of longing flashed across Ji Lingxi's eyes, but she refused to admit defeat. She hugged her arms and snorted, saying, "What's the use of liking him? He can't come near me right now, he'll get beaten up if he does. There's no such restriction for you, though. Now that we've met … hehe …"
Shyness and mischief flashed across her pretty eyes as she said, "He's been looking forward to our wedding night for a long time …"
Shangguan Lingxiu's face was flushed behind her mask, but she snorted and said stubbornly, "You little girl … Why are you spouting nonsense? But … we're engaged to begin with. Even if … it's nothing … It's a pity that I can't replace you no matter what. "
This time, it was Ji Lingxi's turn to be embarrassed. "Sister Lingxiu, you're really …"
Shangguan Lingxiu blushed and said, "Really what? Are you saying what's on your mind?"
Ji Lingxi grew more embarrassed and quickly changed the topic. "Let's not talk about this … Say … what should we do if he really comes back with a fox's head this time?"
Shangguan Lingxiu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't think that much. It doesn't matter if he has a fox's head or a snake's head – even if he turns into a mouse – as long as he can come back safely. What could be better than him coming back to us safely and happily? "
Ji Lingxi nodded and said, "You're truly a good wife and a loving mother, sister. I'm ashamed of my inferiority, but you're right. He must have suffered a lot at the Demon Clan's side. We should let him go for now. When things have settled down, we'll talk about his fox head again. His body no longer belongs to him alone."
Shangguan Lingxiu bit her lip, blushing behind her mask as she said, "Yes, his body has long been … mine. Hmph … If he has a fox's head, I won't do anything with him no matter what …"
Ji Lingxi blushed and perked up. "Who's that? Don't you know how to do anything with him?"
Shyly, Shangguan Lingxiu turned and returned to her room. "I'll do whatever you say. You know it very well. If you don't, think about it yourself."
Ji Lingxi smiled and looked into the distance, sighing softly again.
Where is he?
Did he know how dangerous this return journey would be?
…
Tonight City, which occupied hundreds of thousands of acres of land and had a population of more than ten million people, constantly had the auras of experts rising and falling during this period of time.
Not long after the arrival of the Eastern Celestial Palace's Son of Saint, the people from the Sacred Heart Palace who had come to receive Yun Yang had also arrived. The leader of this group was Great Elder Lei Qianli, whom Yun Yang had long heard of but had never met.
It was also on this night that two groups of people stealthily entered at almost the same time.
Because of this, Tonight Night City, which was located at the edge of the continent and belonged to a remote and desolate area, suddenly fell into a strange and unpredictable atmosphere.
The next day, an order was issued from the Residence of the City Lord.
"By the order of the Eastern Celestial Palace, the Western Holy Palace, and the Northern Wasteland Demonic Palace, from today onwards, everyone in Tonight City, whether they are martial artists or ordinary people, is not allowed to wear a mask. Violators will be punished with death! Three families will be punished! "
As the order was issued, the wind and clouds in the sky trembled even more violently.
A voice hollered, "What is the meaning of this? Everyone knows that our hero has an indecent appearance now and is using such a method to cover himself. Isn't it too much for the three palaces to issue such an order? Are you trying to burn the bridge after crossing it and blaspheme the hero? "
Another voice said sternly, "How can a hero be blasphemed? Not allowing others to wear a mask is an expression of our reverence for the hero! Lest someone tries to pass it off as the hero and tarnish the hero's reputation instead. "
"A hero is a hero. No matter how he appears, he is our hero!"
"Judging a person by his appearance is a blasphemy to the hero?"
This debate lasted for a very, very long time, with everyone sticking to their own views.
Ji Lingxi was dressed in white with a black veil over her face as she stood at the top of the building. Her bright gaze gradually turned as cold as the moon in the sky.
A faint murderous intent lingered around her, growing bit by bit.
In the room.
Shangguan Lingxiu was wiping the sword in her hand gently with a piece of white silk cloth.
The sword gleamed coldly, reflecting the murderous intent in Shangguan Lingxiu's eyes.
…
Far away, about three thousand miles away, another purple-clothed person with a black veil over her face was sprinting towards them.
Yun Yang had finally ended his closed-door cultivation.
Once he exited, he gazed at the sky from the top of the mountain, only to see blood clouds in front of him, brimming with murderous intent.
Yun Yang sighed softly.
From the beginning to the end, he had never thought of waving the butcher's knife at these humans. It would be fine if it was one or two, but if there were too many casualties, it would inevitably affect the overall capability of humanity.
In spite of this, these people were determined to kill him. If he did not retaliate, he would be the first to die. He could not do anything about it!
As Yun Yang waved, a tall mountain rose from the ground behind him. The mountain was thousands of feet tall and stretched for dozens of miles, but there was not a single drop of sand, stone, or soil on the mountain, not even a single plant or tree.
It was filled with all sorts of strange metal residue!
Although they were residue that Emmie and Yun Yun did not think much of, the texture of the residue was extraordinary. It was at least a few times tougher than ordinary metal. The moment it appeared, it emitted a colorful glow that shot straight into the sky!
It was also because of this that an indestructible mountain had appeared outside the city tonight, existing eternally and eternally in the Bound of Universe.
In front of the glow was Yun Yang's graceful figure. The sun shone from his back, dragging a long shadow of the mountain in front of him. Yun Yang moved swiftly in the shadow.
It did not take long for Yun Yang to walk out of the shadowy territory.
When he took the last step out of the shadow, Yun Yang heaved a soft sigh of relief and stopped, murmuring, "It has nothing to do with glory or hatred. It's only because of life and death. That's all."
After saying this, he took another big step forward. At that moment, his whole body was under the sunlight.
Then, he did not turn back, flying straight towards the direction of the city tonight.
Yun Yang was not moving at a fast pace, but he had not stopped since he had started moving.
It was not until Yun Yang's presence reappeared in the world that the world knew of him once more.
Tonight, the eyes of many in the city brightened.
When the target walked into their field of vision again, it meant that the counterattack should continue.
Many people immediately disappeared from their original positions without saying a word.
It was unknown if this was a sign that many people would leave their original positions, never to return to their original positions!
In one of the courtyards.
DongFang XingChen, dressed in a snow-white robe, sat in the middle of the room. One could tell that the room he was in was different from the rest. Everywhere he looked was pure white. Not only were the walls snow-white, even the tables and chairs were snow-white.
In the entire room, only DongFang XingChen's hair and eyes were black.
Everything else, including the incense burner in front of him, the ashes in the incense burner, the incense sticks in it, and even the smoke from the burning were all white!
It was the most ordinary of houses, but once one entered, it was as if one was in a pure white world.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
DongFang XingChen raised his head indifferently, not making a sound.
A voice came from outside, "Young Lord, Yun Yang has appeared. He is currently three thousand miles south of Tonight City."
DongFang XingChen still did not reply.
"There are already quite a number of people rushing over … they are …" The person outside continued to report, word by word.
As the trusted aides of DongFang XingChen, they were well aware of the temper of their young master. If there was nothing that interested him, it was normal for him to remain silent during the reporting process. That feeling was no different from talking to a wall.
"The other inheritors have also made their moves. Although their movements are still unclear, it is certain that they have sent out their men. "
"Right now, only our side has not made a move. Young Lord, please advise us on what to do next."
At this point, the person outside had finished his report and was carefully waiting for DongFang XingChen's reply.
After a long time …
DongFang XingChen's voice rang out, "Have the men from the Residence of Nine Supremes and the forces from the Ninth Supremes made any moves?"
"No. These two families have yet to make contact with each other. Based on the information we have received, these two families have yet to make any concrete moves, as if they are waiting to see what happens. "
DongFang XingChen said coldly, "If that is the case, then send out two Great Lords to welcome the return of Supreme Cloud! Supreme Cloud is the hero of the world, the role model of the continent. No matter what, he must not be harmed! "
"Tell them to ensure the safety of Sect Leader Yun at all costs!"
"Yes."
The person outside immediately acknowledged the order and left.
Inside the room, DongFang XingChen's gaze swept past the rising incense smoke, his clear and cold eyes filled with clarity. The moment he stretched out his hand, the space around him suddenly froze. A slowly rising cloud of smoke froze in the air, forming a unique object that no craftsman in this world would be able to complete.
DongFang XingChen stretched out his arm, and with a 'kacha' sound, the condensed air that was emitting smoke was easily removed. It was as though he was breaking off a small piece of ice from a large piece of ice.
As the cloud of smoke was removed, the black hole behind it appeared in front of him.
This piece of space was grabbed by DongFang XingChen just like that, placed in front of his eyes, and observed it carefully.
After a while, he muttered to himself, "Suddenly rising into the sky without any foundation, how long can it last?"
"Clap!"
Two slender fingers suddenly moved, and the piece of condensed air that had been plucked out from the space returned to its original position. It was seamless and seamless, without the slightest flaw.
Then, the incense continued to burn, and the smoke continued to rise according to its original trajectory, as if nothing had happened at all …
From the beginning to the end, only DongFang XingChen had created such a miraculous scene. Only he had seen it, only he had seen it, and only he had seen it. Yet, with a single sentence from him, it was the same as before.
…
Yun Yang had not even walked more than a hundred miles when he heard someone call out sternly, "Is that the Bound of Universe Supreme Cloud, Lord Yun Yang, in front?"
Yun Yang's eyes behind his mask looked up and focused on the void in front of him. The void shattered like a painting, and three silhouettes appeared from it. With a whoosh, they landed several hundred feet in front of Yun Yang.
"Three first level pinnacle Great Lords."
Yun Yang muttered to himself in his heart.
As the three of them landed, they bowed in unison, "Bound of Universe's Shui Wuhen, Shui Wubo, and Shui Wubing pay our respects to Lord Supreme Cloud. We thank Lord Supreme Cloud for your contribution to the Bound of Universe. The three of us are extremely grateful to you, please accept our bow."
Yun Yang did not make any move, only staring at the three of them indifferently.
He could clearly feel the murderous intent emanating from the trio, so how could he be so rash as to exchange pleasantries with them? Seeing that they had bowed deeply, he then said, "Dispense with the formalities."
The three Great Lords on the other side choked upon hearing his words.
Before they came, they had thought about how Yun Yang would react. Whether it was a polite conversation, ignoring him and leaving, or even a sudden attack, they all had their own ways of dealing with him. Yet, what the hell was this' dispense with the formalities'?
Why was this child so arrogant?
Even if he was the newly promoted hero of the Bound of Universe and was worthy of such an honor, did he still have any sense of propriety or shame?
Then, Yun Yang asked in a seemingly curious manner, "All three of you have the surname Shui. Are you from the same family? Are you all of the same generation?"
The trio grew even more displeased as they snorted coldly with a straight face. "So what?"
However, Yun Yang suddenly asked, "May I ask if the three of you have heard of the name Shui Wuyin? Is he from the same source as the three of you? "
Yun Yang had always known that the Tianxuan Continent and the Bound of Universe were closely related. Whether it was the Lei Family of his sixth brother, the God of Wine, Feng Xiange, or the demonic Phoenix Sovereign related to Mr. Nian, or the secret of Bones of God, when he suddenly heard three top-notch cultivators with the surname Shui, he subconsciously linked them to his old subordinate in the Tianxuan Continent, Shui Wuyin.
"Never heard of him!"
The trio answered in unison, their expressions turning even more sour.
"Hmm." Yun Yang's eyes behind the mask grew colder and clearer as he said, "I wonder if the three of you have come today to teach me anything?"
Shui Wuhen snorted and said loudly, "We have come today to seek guidance from Lord Supreme Cloud on two matters."
As they spoke, the sound of air being sliced could be heard as another seven to eight experts arrived.
"The first matter is, of course, to see Lord Supreme Cloud. As a part of the human race, we should show our respect and bow to Lord Supreme Cloud for his great contribution."
"As for the second matter, it is a personal matter." Shui Wubo continued, "Due to fate, the three of us brothers stepped into the path of cultivation and climbed to the pinnacle of it. We didn't want to waste this ability, so we left our hometown and lived alone in the Bloody Soul Mountain. It has been more than seven thousand years since then."
"The three of us brothers have not stepped into the world for a long time, but the bloodline of the Shui Family still flows in our veins. We have been passed down for thousands of years and have become a great family. However, we heard that Sect Leader Yun had uprooted our family three to four years ago in order to expand the sect's territory. It is a pity that only three of us survived out of the tens of thousands of people in the Shui Family."
