"The future?"
Yun Teng's eyes were cold. He stared at his father, the clan leader of the Yun Clan.
The old man had said that he would train Qianxue, and he had believed it. He thought that the old man wanted to make up for what he owed Qianxue because of her father's death.
Obviously, he had thought too much.
However, Qianxue did not go to the imperial city with them. She was sent away in advance, with many excellent women from the clan.
Someone came to pick her up. They were from the Zhong Clan of the imperial city.
Yun Teng understood that the Yun Clan, his clan, had sold Qianxue out in exchange for the clan's benefits.
"For the future, so you sent her to the Zhong Clan?" Yun Teng's lightning will spread out. He seemed to be trying to control his anger. He said in a low voice, "Qianxue is still young, and she has already shown extraordinary talent. Because of what happened to her father, the clan has already let her down. Why are you still doing this?"
He did not want to believe that the Yun Clan of Luo City would do such a thing.
They were so cold-blooded and heartless.
"It is because of Qianxue's outstanding talent that the Zhong Clan values her. You know the status of the Zhong Clan. She can have a better future in the Zhong Clan," Old Man Yun continued.
"Father, how could such shameless words come out of your mouth?" Yun Teng clenched his fists. Lightning swam over his body. "Everyone in Emperor Qi's territory knows about the Zhong Clan's cultivation methods. The heir of the Zhong Clan, Zhong Qiu, cultivates the ultimate will of the way of ice, and he cultivates the pure yin power of the will of yin and yang. He even cultivates in the bodies of women. Everyone keeps a respectful distance from him. Only those shameless clans would send their excellent women to the Zhong Clan to serve as servants in order to curry favor with the Zhong Clan. I didn't expect you to become one of them.
How ridiculous. "Maids were of low status in the world of cultivators. Zhong Qiu of the Zhong Clan was not married, but he already had many servants. They were all for his cultivation and for his reputation.
Such a method of cultivation was supposed to be shameful, but the Zhong Clan's status was transcendent, and they did not force others to do so. Even so, there were still powerful clans sending their women to the Zhong Clan of their own accord. He thought that such a thing would be far away from them.
Although the clan had always wanted to get in touch with the Zhong Clan, he did not expect them to use such underhanded methods.
"Impudent!" Old Man Yun scolded angrily, "The Zhong Clan values Qianyue's talent, and Zhong Qiu is also the most talented genius in Emperor Qi's territory. With Qianyue by his side, she may have a chance to marry Zhong Qiu in the future. I have also told them to treat Qianyue well. Even if she doesn't have the title of wife in the future, as long as Qianyue performs well, it won't be difficult for her to have the title of concubine.
"Pleasing others in order to obtain the status of a concubine?" Yun Ni's eyes were moist. Her heart was dead. "Just because Qianyue's surname isn't Yun?"
"You guys are really despicable. Yun Chong, this is your idea, right? Use my daughter in exchange for your son's future. "
Her crimson eyes swept across the crowd and finally landed on Yun Chong. Beside Yun Chong was his son, Yun Mo.
Yun Mo was the most talented person in the Saint Realm in this generation of the Yun Clan. The Yun Clan had always placed their hopes on him. Now that the Yun Clan had used her daughter as a trading partner, it could only be to fulfill Yun Mo's wish.
"Shut up."
Yun Chong's eyes were cold. He glanced at Yun Ni and said coldly and arrogantly, "The people of the Yun Clan are all for the family's interests. You refused to hand over the girl for your own selfish reasons and offended the Zuoqiu Clan. Since that's the case, you have to pay a price to make up for it. There's news from the Imperial City that the Celestial Sword Li Clan is very likely to have a marriage alliance with the Zuoqiu Clan. You have to know that only the Zhong Clan can fight against the Zuoqiu Clan, and only Zhong Qiu of the Zhong Clan can be mentioned in the same breath as that genius of the Zuoqiu Clan. For a moment of pleasure, you disregarded the family's interests.
Now, he naturally understood everything. Yun Chong, who had always been gentle, finally showed his true colors.
So Yun Chong, who had always been gentle, finally showed his true colors at this moment.
For the family's interests?
He didn't have to sacrifice himself. He didn't even have to sacrifice someone else's child to fulfill his own child. Of course, he was willing to do that for the family.
Qianyue had been traded to the Zhong Clan as an item?
Moreover, she was an escort.
The status of an escort was low. They had to obey all the master's orders, which meant that they belonged to the master.
So, how dare they say it was for Qianyue?
Just as Yun Teng said, they were extremely shameless.
The crueler a place of cultivation was, the more interests came first.
But he knew it was meaningless to argue.
Thoughts were implanted in one's bones. Despicable people wouldn't think they were despicable. They would also believe that everything they did was right. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to cultivate to the present level if they doubted themselves.
"Senior Yun, Madam, it's meaningless to say more. Let's go to the imperial city," Ye Futian said to Yun Teng and Yun Ni.
Qianyue shouldn't have been sent away for a long time. They could still make it if they went there now.
"Do you have the right to speak here?"
A cold and arrogant voice came. Yun Mo, Yun Chong's son, glanced at Ye Futian with a bit of coldness. "Don't forget who started this."
Hearing Yun Mo's words, Yu Sheng released an overbearing aura from his body. But Ye Futian looked very calm. Although he had the intention to kill, he still suppressed his anger.
The person who spoke should be the hope of the Yun Clan. The Yun Clan did all this for him.
"Qianyue cultivated with me before. She is half a disciple of mine. If anything happens to her, those who are involved in this will not be able to escape." Ye Futian's voice sounded very calm, but there seemed to be an extreme coldness in this calmness, which made people feel that the temperature in the air seemed to drop a bit.
The leader of the Yun Clan looked at him. At this moment, he seemed to feel a strange temperament from this young man in the Saint of True Self Plane. That temperament seemed to be the temperament of a leader in a high position, who was indifferent to the Yun Clan.
As a Saint of the Nirvana Plane, he actually sensed a trace of threat from this young man in an instant.
Yun Chong, Yun Mo, and the others glanced at Ye Futian in surprise. There seemed to be a bit of contempt and mockery in their eyes. No one will be able to escape?
Who did he think he was?
Ye Futian walked forward and said to Yun Teng and Yun Ni, "This matter should not be delayed. Don't delay."
"Okay." Yun Teng suppressed his anger and nodded. Then, he turned around with Yun Ni and wanted to leave. Someone blocked their way, but Old Man Yun said, "Let them go."
He knew that this was a bit unfair to Yun Teng and Yun Ni. But as Yun Chong said, once the Celestial Sword Li Clan and the Zuoqiu Clan united by marriage, with the grudge between them and the Celestial Sword Li Clan, they would be in danger.
They had to break out of this situation, and getting close to the Zhong Clan was the only way they could find.
For the sake of the clan, sacrifices had to be made.
"Let's go, too," Old Man Yun continued. Yun Teng was only an Unblemished Saint, and he was a Nirvana Plane Saint. They would arrive at the imperial city before Yun Teng, and he would inform the Zhong Clan.
Yun Teng would not do anything bad. Besides, he did not want anything to happen to Yun Teng. After all, he was his son.
He knew very well that with Yun Teng's cultivation, even if they arrived at the imperial city, nothing could help.
The cultivators of the Yun Clan set off in great numbers, riding on ritual implements instead of walking. A bolt of lightning flashed over the sky dome. They overtook Yun Teng and the others who were on their way, heading far away.
Yun Teng and the others looked embarrassed. According to the plan, they would set off with their clansmen, just in time to make the Palace Examination in the imperial city.
"Senior Yun, the Palace Examination will start soon, right?" Ye Futian asked. He also planned to go with the cultivators of the Yun Clan.
"Yes." Yun Teng nodded.
"In this case, the Zhong Clan should also be preparing for the Palace Examination. Qianyue should be safe for the time being. Senior and Madam, don't worry too much," Ye Futian said.
Although Ye Futian said so, Yun Teng and Yun Ni did not look relaxed at all. How could they not worry?
Even if they were safe for the time being, what could they do?
Even the Yun Clan did not dare to provoke the giant Zhong Clan, let alone the few of them. Even if they arrived at the imperial city, would it really be of any use?
But now, there was no time to think so much. They could only go there first.
"Qianyue is half a disciple of mine. When we arrive at the imperial city, just leave her to me," Ye Futian continued. Yun Teng and Yun Ni both looked at him. Ye Futian did not seem to be joking. Just like when he threatened the Yun Clan, he was calm and confident, as if he was really sure he could do it.
"Yes." Yun Ni nodded. Qianyue trusted Mr. Ye very much. She even wanted to be his disciple and cultivate with him. Every time after cultivation, she would praise Mr. Ye in front of her.
Subconsciously, she also felt that Ye Futian was extraordinary.
Now, since he said so, there was a glimmer of hope in her heart.
Maybe he really had a chance to do it. Even if it was very slim, it was at least a glimmer of hope.
…
In the majestic imperial city of Emperor Qi's territory, cultivators were constantly flying in the sky dome.
Today, people from all over Emperor Qi's territory gathered in the imperial city and went straight to the center of the imperial city.
On this day, the Palace Examination of Emperor Qi's territory would start. They would select those who had the opportunity to cultivate with Emperor Qi and receive guidance from the Renhuang.
As a supreme Renhuang Realm, the Heavenly Mandate Realm was also the extreme of martial arts among the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Everyone advocated martial arts, and it was the same in the Endless Realm.
People from all over the world would not miss this grand event.
Even people from many forces had arrived in advance.
In the imperial city, when the Palace Examination was about to start, Ye Futian and the other three also arrived. However, they did not go directly to the place where the Palace Examination was held. Instead, they asked Yun Teng to lead the way to the Zhong Clan first.
Compared with the Palace Examination, they were more worried about Yun Qianyue's safety. As for this year's Palace Examination, they were not in the mood to watch it.
They were extremely fast, rushing madly because they were worried that something would happen to Yun Qianyue.
Finally, when the Palace Examination was about to start, they arrived at the Zhong Clan's residence in the imperial city!
