Miao Yi said quietly, "I don't know what your grandfather and Mu Fanjun are thinking."
Yun Zhiqiu said, "Their thoughts must be similar to those of Ji Huan and the other two. I'll go talk to them. There shouldn't be any problems. It's also good that the matter here has been completely resolved. In the future, we can focus our efforts on the outside world."
"Tell them that I can agree to it, but I have another condition. The Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade must end from now on!" Miao Yi added with a dejected expression.
Yun Zhiqiu was taken aback. Then, he thought of something and nodded. "That shouldn't be a problem."
If everything was made clear, it would be easier to deal with it! Since Yun Zhiqiu didn't have any objections, Miao Yi accepted it as well.
The remaining matters were left to Yun Zhiqiu to handle. Miao Yi agreed to it, and Ji Huan and the others didn't have any objections either. They agreed to hold the wedding ceremony on the closest auspicious day. None of them wanted to drag it out any longer.
As such, the six countries all sent people to prepare for the wedding, meticulously making preparations in Immeasurable Heaven.
The forces of the Celestial Nation's Fifth Earthly Branch were almost completely wiped out by Miao Yi. Yang Qing led his forces and officially stationed them in the Boundless Nation, while all the sects of the Fifth Earthly Branch were forced to relocate to the Boundless Nation.
Following that, under Abbot Yang Qing's — or in fact, under Yun Zhiqiu's instructions — something else happened.
After making arrangements, Yang Qing returned to the Limitless Palace in advance.
One day, when all four Subjugation Subjugation Crusade Hosts were present, Yang Qing, who was accompanying Miao Yi on a tour of the garden, suddenly stepped forward and blocked Miao Yi's path. He cupped his fists and said, "Your humble servant has something to report!"
As soon as he saw him, Miao Yi was reminded of what happened between him and Qin Xi. He smiled and asked, "What is it? You wouldn't think Qin Xi isn't pretty, would you? "
As soon as he said that, everyone burst into laughter. Even Qin Weiwei, who was accompanying him, pursed her lips and could not help but laugh.
Yang Qing replied, "Your humble servant is not joking. Instead, I would like to ask the Venerable Lord to transfer six of the Boundless Nation's twelve divisions of troops to the Sea of Constellations and station them separately. Then, transfer five divisions of troops from the Sea of Constellations to the Boundless Nation and station them separately. At the same time, search for suitable places in the Sea of Constellations that are suitable for the believers to live in. Then, a large number of people from the six countries will migrate there! "
Everyone present could no longer laugh. Not to mention the others, even Qin Weiwei could tell what Yang Qing was up to. He was trying to weaken the Four Overlords' control over the Sea of Constellations!
Standing beside Miao Yi, Yun Zhiqiu remained expressionless. He looked as if he didn't know anything at all.
Actually, this was her idea. Miao Yi didn't know about it, because she knew Miao Yi too well. Miao Yi wouldn't do such a thing, so she had no choice but to act as the villain in secret. He explained the plan to Yang Qing. Yang Qing was deeply convinced and immediately executed the plan!
Miao Yi looked to his left and right at the four Overlords, who had their heads lowered in silence. His expression darkened as he said, "You should focus on your own matters first. Don't think about those useless things!"
He cupped his fists once more and said, "I believe that since the Sea of Constellations and the Boundless Nation have already become one, why do we still need to divide and rule? Could it be that someone harbors ill intentions?"
It was obvious that he was referring to the Four Overlords! Miao Yi flew into a rage. "Insolence! Guards! Drag Yang Qing away and whip him until he repents! "
Yun Zhiqiu immediately shot Qin Weiwei a meaningful glance. Qin Weiwei immediately ran out and knelt in front of Miao Yi, begging, "Holy Senior! Please, Holy Senior, consider the fact that Yang Qing is my adoptive father and spare him this once! "
On the other side, Lan Hou, who had served under Yun Zhiqiu for many years and was highly appreciated by Yun Zhiqiu for his abilities, had already been transferred to the Boundless Realm to supervise the executions. With a wave of his hand, two cultivators immediately rushed over and seized Yang Qing, about to drag him away for the execution.
Meanwhile, Yun Zhiqiu coldly observed the reactions of the four Overlords of the Sea of Constellations.
"Wait!" Fu Qing suddenly raised his head and raised his hand to stop the executioner. At the same time, he gave a slight nod to Xiong Wei, Invincible Eagle, and Hong Tian.
The four of them walked out side by side. Fu Qing cupped his fists and said, "Holy Senior! Yang Qing's words were not inappropriate. Since the Sea of Constellations and the Boundless Nation have already become one, it would indeed be easy for others to gossip if they were to divide and rule. Steward Yang was actually reminding the four of us. It was a timely reminder, so we can avoid being used by those with ill intentions. "
After looking around, the four Overlords cupped their fists together and said, "The four of us plead on Steward Yang's behalf. Holy Senior, please calm your anger!"
Miao Yi didn't care. "For the sake of my four brothers' pleading, I will whip him ten times! This will be a good lesson for him! "
"Take him away!" Lan Hou said coldly.
And so, Yang Qing was dragged away just like that. Kneeling on the ground, Qin Weiwei was extremely anxious. The Dragon Taming Whip did not feel good at all. Yun Zhiqiu stepped forward and personally helped her up. He held her back and stopped her from speaking. There were some things that Yang Qing had to suffer in order to look good on the surface.
Originally, due to the arrival of Yan Xiu, Yang Zhaoqing, and the others, Miao Yi had become one of the Six Sages. It was a joyous occasion for everyone to gather together. However, this sudden incident immediately ruined everyone's mood to continue having fun.
Miao Yi shot a glance at Yun Zhiqiu. With a sullen expression, he was the first to leave. Along the way, he met Jing Kang and Jing Luo, who were sweeping the floor in front of the sleeping quarters. He bowed to them, but didn't pay them any attention.
Xiong Wei and the others also silently returned. When they reached their temporary lodging, Fu Qing suddenly sighed, "Big Brother, Little Third, Little Fourth. Little Fifth is no longer the same as before. Whether in the outside world or the small world, he is now our superior. It's no longer appropriate to call him 'Little Fifth'. Remember to address him differently in the future!"
Xiong Wei muttered, "You mean to say that Little Fifth is putting on an act for us to see?"
Fu Qing shook his head. "Little Fifth is a loyal person. He wouldn't do something like this. But Little Fifth's wife … That Sister-in-law is using Yang Qing's mouth to set the rules for us! She's trying to set the rules for everyone, and is also testing our attitude. If we still think we are on equal footing with Little Fifth, then we are wrong. That Sister-in-law won't hold back! "
The brothers fell silent …
Meanwhile, Yang Qing had suffered a great deal of physical pain.
However, Yun Zhiqiu soon brought Qin Weiwei over to visit. When Yang Qing, whose back was badly mutilated, heard the news, he immediately draped a robe over him and got up. With Qin Xi's help, he paid his respects to the two madams.
"You've suffered, Head Steward!" Yun Zhiqiu sighed. He personally handed over a jade box containing five stalks of Glorious Star immortal herb.
After comforting him for a while, Yun Zhiqiu asked Qin Weiwei to stay and left with Yan Xiu and Yang Zhaoqing.
When Qin Weiwei had left, Qin Xi helped Yang Qing lie down and complained, "Didn't Yun Zhiqiu ask you to do this? Why did he still beat you up like this?"
Yang Qing, who was lying on the pillow, laughed bitterly. "Even if you don't say it, everyone else knows. The Lord is going to take in concubines soon, and four of them are going to marry at once. Which one of them isn't stronger than us? The harem is managed by Madam. If Weiwei wants to have a position in the harem, if I don't show my loyalty, who will? Moreover, The Lord is used to being a hands-off boss. There are some things that he doesn't want to care about. Madam has a lot of power! Remember, don't call her 'Yun Zhiqiu' anymore. Call her Madam no matter who is in front of or behind the scenes, just in case the walls have ears! "
Qin Xi was rather dissatisfied. "He already has a lot of wives and concubines. If he still wants to marry, what has Weiwei become? "
Yang Qing shook his head. "This kind of marriage is just using each other."
On the day of the big day, even though they had agreed to keep it simple, the Boundless Heaven was still bustling with noise and excitement. Keeping it simple meant that they didn't invite too many guests. Ji Huan and the others didn't really want the world to know about this either, so they didn't spread the news beforehand, even though they knew it would spread sooner or later.
Lanterns were lit, and the Boundless Palace was decorated with lanterns and streamers under the night sky. Amidst the clamor of music, Miao Yi, dressed in auspicious attire, and the four newlyweds with red veils over their heads bowed to each other. It really made the people watching the ceremony unable to restrain their laughter, and the people below cheered.
Fortunately, this wasn't Miao Yi's first time experiencing such a scene. Last time, there were three, and this time, there were four. It wasn't much, just one more than the last time. However, counting the dowry maids, it wasn't a small number. It was equivalent to marrying twelve of them at once.
Under the starry night sky, in a place where the lights were waning, Yun Zhiqiu stood on a dark rooftop, quietly watching the festive and lively scene in the distance. Two streams of tears flowed silently down his face, blurring his vision.
"Why aren't you showing your magnanimity? Why are you hiding here and crying? "
A familiar voice suddenly came from beside him. Yun Zhiqiu quickly turned around, only to see Yun Aotian standing beside him. His long hair fluttered in the wind as he stood proudly with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless as he watched the lively scene.
No one from the Great Devil Realm went to join in the fun.
"Grandpa!" Yun Zhiqiu sniffled, wiped his tears, and greeted him.
Yun Aotian said indifferently, "Do you regret marrying him?"
Yun Zhiqiu forced a smile and said, "No! I married him. I will never regret it! I remember when Great Aunt was still alive, she told me that women shouldn't marry a man with a promising future. If you're married, don't overthink things … I didn't understand it before, but I do now! "
Yun Aotian said, "But you still cried."
Yun Zhiqiu wiped his tears again and said, "If I didn't agree to this, Miao Yi would never have married you. I agreed to it."
Yun Aotian asked, "If you weren't willing, why did you agree?"
Yun Zhiqiu said, "Even though I'm married, the Yun family is still my maternal family. You are still my grandfather, after all. I still have to think for the Yun family. When he couldn't bear to reject me, I asked him for another favor. Once we reach the outside world, I will give the Earth section of the Unparalleled Demonic Art to Grandfather! "
She had the right to make the decision for the Earth section of the Unparalleled Demonic Art. She had already asked for Miao Yi's permission before he took a concubine. It was true that she would take care of her maternal family, but she had to take care of her own family first. If she lost her own family, how could she take care of her maternal family? That was why she wanted to maximize the benefits. As long as the Yun family obtained the Earth section, they would have to take care of her in the future. Taking care of her meant taking care of Miao Yi, which meant taking care of her family.
Yun Aotian abruptly turned around. He didn't think that his granddaughter would make such a huge sacrifice for the Yun family, only to hide here and cry in silence. He said in a deep voice, "Who told you to do this? The men of the Yun family can die, but they will never trade their women for a better future. Why didn't you tell me before this? "
Yun Zhiqiu said, "Grandfather, do you really think the six great arts of the outside world are that easy to find? If the Yun family doesn't have the strength to protect us after we go to the outside world, how will I be able to rest easy? "
Yun Aotian said word by word, "Even so, you don't have to suffer. I will find a way to get it from Miao Yi myself!"
Yun Zhiqiu said, "It's already come to this. Are you going to break the promise now?"
