"I am here today because I have a presumptuous request to ask of you," Yun Hai's expression was serious.
"What is it?"
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow. He knew it. Yun Hai never comes without a reason, he must have something to ask of him.
"It's like this. The Zi Yang House has announced that they are recruiting disciples. All descendants of the House's affiliated forces or those who are younger than 20 years old are allowed to participate. I plan on sending Yun Yan and Yun Meng to participate," Yun Hai explained.
"Yes, the House of Zi Yang is one of the three controlling forces. If the two of them can enter the House, their future will be bright." Ling Xian nodded, agreeing with this decision.
"Haha, I knew you would support me. If the two of them can enter the inner House, not only will their future be bright, but the Yun Clan will also benefit. At the very least, we can reduce our offerings by 30 percent." Yun Hai laughed. Staring at the handsome young man, his eyes were full of anticipation.
"Why are you looking at me with that kind of anticipation?" Ling Xian grinned and teased, "I am not part of the upper management of the House of Zi Yang. Do you really expect me to open the back door for you?"
"Of course not." Yun Hai smiled and hesitated, "Brother, as you know, there are four main Clans in the City of the Sun. The other three Clans have a history with the Yun Clan. Therefore, I am afraid that they will ambush the two sisters."
"I see. You want me to escort them to the House of Zi Yang?" Ling Xian smiled, having guessed Yun Hai's intention.
"That's right. Not only are you capable, but you are also smart. Out of everyone in the Yun Clan, nobody can compare to you." Yun Hai smiled.
"You make it so obvious. If I can't guess it, then I would be an idiot." Ling Xian ignored Yun Hai's flattery. Instead, he frowned and pondered.
Logically speaking, this was only a guard mission. It was nothing to him. With his capabilities, he could even face the House of Zi Yang without fear, let alone three small clans.
However, thinking about being alone with the two girls, Ling Xian's head hurt.
Seeing this, a strange smile appeared on Elder Yun Hai's face. He purposely pretended to be worried and sighed, "Brother, you know that my eldest son has no children. In other words, the Yun sisters are the future pillars of the Yun Clan. If something happens to them, then the Yun Clan will fall. I'm sure you won't just sit and watch."
"Stop it. Stop acting so pitiful. Why me?" Ling Xian shook his head and laughed.
"Hehe, it's because you're strong. Before you, those three families are nothing more than clowns." Yun Hai smiled, trying to flatter Ling Xian as much as he could.
"You … I'm really impressed." Ling Xian shook his head helplessly, "Oh well, I will go and watch the excitement of Shi Ao Island."
"Haha, this is great. Little Brother, you are personally taking action. I can finally relax." Yun Hai laughed heartily.
"Don't worry. Since I agreed, those two girls will be fine." Ling Xian softly grinned. His tone was neither arrogant nor arrogant, but everyone could hear the confidence in his voice.
Confidence that suppressed everything.
"Of course I don't worry. Little Brother, you are undefeatable in the foundational level. The strongest powerhouse from the three clans is merely in the intermediate stage of the foundational level. They can't even defend against one attack from you." Yun Hai was full of confidence in Ling Xian. Even though he didn't know Ling Xian's true capabilities, in the past three years, the two of them had sparred many times. Every time, he lost within 10 moves. Therefore, he knew very well how terrifying this young man was.
"I already agreed, so stop flattering me." Ling Xian smiled, "When do we leave?"
"The sooner the better. The House of Zi Yang is a long way away. I'm afraid we won't make it in time." Yun Hai smiled.
Ling Xian thought about it for a while and said, "Then tell them to come to me. I will pack up and leave immediately."
"Alright, I like your quick and decisive personality." Yun Hai clapped his hands and laughed.
"Right, is there a way to get to the nine continents?" Ling Xian asked.
"About that …" Yun Hai's face turned red. Ever since Ling Xian saved the Yun Clan, he had been sending people to ask around for information. However, after three years of searching, not a single clue was found. This made him extremely embarrassed and felt like he had wronged Ling Xian.
Seeing how embarrassed he was, Ling Xian understood and sighed, "Oh well, it's not your fault."
"Little Brother, you sure know what's good for you." Yun Hai stuck up his thumb and said, "You know that the Yun Clan is nothing on Shi Ao Island. There are a lot of secrets that we can't find. Therefore, we still don't have a clue about this."
"Whatever. If what you said was true, then the battle would've destroyed all the portals. But I think there are still portals that exist. They are just sealed up and normal people don't know about them." Ling Xian softly sighed.
"That's right. I think so too. It's all because the Yun Clan is too weak." Yun Hai smiled, "But, if there really are portals, the three controlling forces would know about it."
"Hmm, that makes sense. It looks like I have to go to the House of Zi Yang." Ling Xian softly grinned, "Go. Call the two girls over. Then, we will make our move."
"Okay, I will go now."
Yun Hai agreed with a smile. Then, he stood up and transformed into a ray of light that headed towards the Yun Sisters' room.
"That's good. I haven't left this place in three years. It's a good opportunity to see the outside world." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. His eyes flashed with anticipation.
Ever since he arrived at the Yun Clan, he had been staying here, completely isolated from the outside world. Today was a good opportunity for him to go out and explore the wonders of Shi Ao Island and find out how to get back to the nine continents.
"The House of Zi Yang is one of the three rulers of Shi Ao Island. Perhaps they know how to get back to Yunzhou."
Muttering to himself, Ling Xian's silhouette flashed and he returned to his temporary cottage. Rolling up his sleeves, he stored away the purple cauldron, the Exquisite Jade Tree, and other treasures. Then, he sat on the green rock outside the door and waited for Yun Yan and Yun Meng.
After a while, Yun Yan and Yun Meng arrived from afar.
Yun Yan was wearing a robe that was as white as snow. Her beauty was enough to topple cities. Like a fairy who had just descended to the mortal world, she was extraordinary and charming.
Yun Meng's facial features were exquisite and her body was graceful. Wearing a light yellow dress, she looked like a fairy among flowers, cute, and full of energy.
The two of them were both top-notch beauties. Each of them had their own strengths and weaknesses.
Yun Yan's personality was quiet and graceful. Every move she made was accompanied by a mature temperament.
Yun Meng, on the other hand, was the exact opposite. She was playful and playful. Like a child who had yet to grow up, she was full of youthful energy.
Seeing Ling Xian sitting on the green rock, the two girls' eyes brightened. Yun Meng ran over and grabbed onto Ling Xian's arm. As she shook it, she smiled, "Master, I haven't seen you for a month. You've gotten more handsome."
"It's not that I've gotten more handsome, it's that your mouth has gotten sweeter."
Ling Xian shook his head helplessly and allowed Yun Meng to shake his arm. Though the feeling of softness was wonderful, all he felt was a headache.
What could he do? Yun Meng was far too clingy.
A year ago, Ling Xian accidentally discovered that Yun Meng had a great talent in alchemy. He casually taught her a thing or two. Then, Yun Meng began to pester him. Every day, she would run to him and beg Ling Xian to be her master and teach her alchemy.
At first, Ling Xian didn't agree. He was around the same age as Yun Meng, how could he be her Master? However, he couldn't resist Yun Meng's begging. In the end, he agreed.
Then, the nightmare began.
Yun Meng would come every two to three days. She would use the excuse that she was in trouble and that she missed her Master. In reality, she just wanted to play with Ling Xian. This annoyed him to no end. He couldn't hit her or scold her. This gave him a headache. Every time he sees Yun Meng, the only thought that popped up in his head was to hide.
One has to admit that to be able to make the fearless Ling Xian feel fear, El Mar was the first person in Yunzhou.
"Master, I miss you so much." Yun Meng's face carried a sweet smile as she swung Ling Xian's arm.
"Stop. If you keep swinging, I'm going to faint." Ling Xian was having a headache. He couldn't do anything about this apprentice who wasn't really his apprentice.
"Sister, stop swinging."
Yun Yan walked over slowly and bowed. "Yun Yan greets Master Ling. It's been a while, but you still look the same."
"You … I've told you many times, don't call me Master. Just call me Ling Xian." Ling Xian waved his hand.
"Yun Yan doesn't dare to call you by your name. Just call me Master. "Yun Yan shook her head and insisted.
"I can't do anything about you two sisters. One is clingy, the other is stubborn. Whatever, do what you want." Ling Xian shrugged off Yun Meng's arm and said in a serious tone, "I bet your grandpa has told you everything."
"Yes, grandpa told us to go to the House of Zi Yang and participate in the entrance test." Yun Yan nodded and peeked at Ling Xian. She blushed.
Remembering the mission her grandpa gave her, she couldn't be more embarrassed.
"Very well. Since you already know, then I won't waste any more time. If you want me to protect you, I can. But I have one condition. If you don't agree, then I will forget about this." Ling Xian's expression was serious.
"Please speak," Yun Yan said softly.
"Listen to my arrangements. No objections," Ling Xian said in a low voice.
"Of course. Since my grandfather asked you to protect us, then everything will be decided by you." Yun Yan smiled brightly, her smile was bright and attractive.
"I'm not worried about you." Ling Xian shifted his gaze to Yun Meng, "What about you? Do you have any objections? "
"You are my Master. If I don't listen to you, then who should I listen to?" Yun Meng's eyes flashed with slyness.
"That's what you said. If you don't listen to me, I will kick you out of the House. Don't ever call me Master again. Do you hear me?" Ling Xian glared at her.
"I hear you, I hear you. Master, let's go," Yun Meng said sweetly.
"Yes, let's go."
Ling Xian nodded. Looking at the north where the House of Zi Yang was, his eyes flashed with anticipation.
