The Fourth Elder looked at Yi Yun with a deep gaze. As an Elder of the Guiyuan family, he had always had an extremely domineering aura. Typical juniors would be overwhelmed by his aura in front of him, including Fairy Purple Rain. Even though Fairy Purple Rain was an elite of the Guiyuan family, she still behaved like a respectful junior in front of him.
However, Yi Yun was clearly wanted by the Myriad Immortal Pavilion. Now that he was in Myriad City, it was like a tiger's lair or a dragon's lair. Who would have expected that under such circumstances, he would disguise himself and accept the Guiyuan family's bounty notice. He had openly entered Guiyuan Manor and even revealed his identity.
Despite being at a complete disadvantage, Yi Yun remained calm and composed. He did not seem to be suppressed by his aura at all. This made Fourth Elder somewhat displeased. After all, he was a person of high status. He was used to being in control of everything.
"Yi Yun, do you know that as long as I send a voice transmission charm, the people from the Myriad Immortal Pavilion will arrive in five minutes and capture you? When that happens, there is no need for me to describe your outcome."
Fourth Elder knew very well that Yi Yun's strength was not much weaker than his. In terms of aura, he was unable to suppress the junior. Therefore, he used this as an entry point, hoping to detect a sliver of unease in Yi Yun's eyes.
However, he was disappointed. Yi Yun smiled and said, "I naturally know that. However, why did Fourth Elder inform the Myriad Immortal Pavilion? Is it because of the bounty offered by the Myriad Immortal Pavilion?"
Fourth Elder sneered. "It's not 'that' bit of bounty. The Myriad Immortal Pavilion has gone to great lengths for you. My Guiyuan family is very tempted by the bounty offered."
Yi Yun shook his head and said, "Is Fourth Elder only so narrow-minded? I previously heard from Xiaowan that the Guiyuan family has always been the second faction in the Myriad Divine Territory for millions of years. And in fact, in terms of raw strength, the Guiyuan family is not much weaker than the Myriad Immortal Pavilion. However, of the three major medicinal clinics in the bustling central area of Myriad City, the Myriad Immortal Pavilion monopolizes the Medicinal Immortal Pavilion. As for the Heaven Bestowing Medicinal Clinic, it is jointly established by the Myriad Immortal Pavilion and a few other factions. According to what I know, the Guiyuan family does not have a medicinal clinic in the core area of Myriad City. All they have is a weapon shop. "
"All these years, the Guiyuan family has had countless resources snatched away by the Myriad Immortal Pavilion. Doesn't Fourth Elder hate it? Now, the Myriad Immortal Pavilion is pursuing me, but they are only taking out a portion of the resources they snatched from the Guiyuan family, turning them into a so-called astronomical bounty. Is this bit of benefit enough to tempt Fourth Elder? From my point of view, the Myriad Immortal Pavilion has snatched something from the Guiyuan family and is returning it to them as a form of charity. "
When Yi Yun said that, a glint flashed in Fourth Elder's eyes as his aura surged. "What a sharp tongue you have. You sure are good at sowing discord. It's true that my Guiyuan family and the Myriad Immortal Pavilion have been at odds for millions of years. How can the upper echelons of my Guiyuan family not analyze the stakes involved? Is it something that a junior like you can judge with just a few words? You are only trying to instigate a conflict between my Myriad Immortal Pavilion and the Guiyuan family so that you can reap the benefits without doing anything! "
Fourth Elder's questioning was overbearing. His words were filled with an aura that made Fairy Purple Rain's breathing stagnate. She knew her grandfather's character well. He was a man of his own mind; otherwise, he would not have been able to sit in the position of Elder. Such a person would not be easily convinced. For some reason, Fairy Purple Rain began to worry for Yi Yun. She felt that if she were in Yi Yun's shoes, there would be nothing more to say.
Yi Yun did not mind Fourth Elder's anger. He casually picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. He said, "Fourth Elder, you are right. I have indeed judged the relationship between the two of you, but you claim that I am reaping the benefits without doing anything. Do you think that I am eyeing the benefits of the Myriad Divine Territory? To be honest, although the Myriad Divine Territory is the trading hub of the Yang God Empyrean Heaven, I, Yi Yun, have no interest in it. My ambitions do not lie here. In a few years, I will be leaving the Myriad Divine Territory. How can I reap the benefits without doing anything? "
"You …" Fourth Elder's eyes widened. What an arrogant tone!
He had seen many young geniuses in his life. For example, Si Yusheng and Si Shaoyu were famous for being arrogant. They thought nothing of anyone. Si Yusheng even dared to kidnap City Lord Qin's youngest son. Was there anything he did not dare to do?
But even the arrogant Si Yusheng's goal in life was to inherit the Myriad Immortal Pavilion and lead the Myriad Immortal Pavilion to dominate the Myriad Divine Territory before expanding outwards.
The only person who said that a 'tiny place' like the Myriad Divine Territory held no interest was Yi Yun.
In comparison, Si Yusheng's arrogance was nothing.
Fourth Elder originally wanted to curse Yi Yun for his arrogance, but he swallowed the words back when they reached his mouth.
On careful thought, everything Yi Yun had done in the past …
He had modified and refined the Supreme Palace Iceheart Pills, making them of a quality that exceeded Zuoqiu Bo's. Despite knowing that Zuoqiu Haoyu was a young master of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, he had still crippled his arms.
Following that, City Lord Qin's youngest son had been held hostage by Si Yusheng, forcing him to leave City Lord Qin's protection. Just as everyone believed that Yi Yun would be taken to the Myriad Immortal Pavilion and become a puppet, he had easily defeated Si Yusheng, who had cultivated for centuries and was said to be invincible beneath Supremacies. Ignoring the fact that he was the heir to the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, Yi Yun had crippled his dantian. Then, Yi Yun had withstood a blow from a Supremacy-level expert, Zuoqiu Bo, and had retreated unscathed.
As long as such a figure did not perish in the future, he would definitely become a Divine Lord or an alchemist sage. It was even possible for him to come into contact with the legendary threshold above a Divine Lord …
He truly had the confidence to say that he thought nothing of the Myriad Divine Territory!
The more he thought about it, the more Fourth Elder found the youth who was slowly sipping his tea terrifying. Ignoring the fact that he could suppress Yi Yun with his aura, it was already pretty good that he was not at a disadvantage.
"I admit that you are the most terrifying genius I have seen — no, I should say that I have heard of you. You are the most terrifying genius I can imagine. However, it is impossible for my Guiyuan family to intensify the conflict between the Myriad Immortal Pavilion and the Guiyuan family to be the vanguard for you just because of what you said!"
"Furthermore, nurturing a tiger only invites calamity. Even if you think nothing of the Myriad Divine Territory, my Guiyuan family does not wish to cooperate with someone who can easily manipulate us in the future. To be honest, the first reaction of many factions towards a person like you is fear. They wish to see you destroyed."
Fourth Elder did not mince his words. Yi Yun nodded. "I like people who speak without beating around the bush. That's right. I naturally know that many factions would be happy to see me dead. However, how can I be destroyed so easily for me to have grown so far?"
"I, Yi Yun, have once faced a faction stronger than the Myriad Immortal Pavilion. I have even faced the pursuit of several Divine Lords alone. I have experienced many more dangerous situations than this one. It might sound unbelievable, but I can swear on my Dao heart that what I said is true. Now, I am still alive and well. The Myriad Immortal Pavilion is still far from being able to destroy me."
When Yi Yun said those words nonchalantly, Fourth Elder's heart skipped a beat.
What?
He had faced the pursuit of several Divine Lords and was still alive to this day?
Fairy Purple Rain, who was standing by the side, gaped her mouth slightly. She found it unbelievable.
However, ignoring Yi Yun's oath, even if he did not, Fairy Purple Rain was inclined to believe that Yi Yun was speaking the truth.
He was a heaven-defying person. His talent in alchemy and martial arts had already caused others to feel incredulous. What was so strange about adding a few more unbelievable things to his list?
Although the Myriad Immortal Pavilion was powerful, it was nothing compared to the combined forces of several Divine Lords.
Yi Yun put down his teacup and said, "Fourth Elder, you can think about it. Since I, Yi Yun, have already left Myriad City and gone far away, as long as I head to a nearby territory, the Myriad Immortal Pavilion would not be able to do a thing to me no matter how capable they are. Yet, I have returned. I am not a person who is willing to suffer losses. It's fine if the enemy is too strong, but as long as the enemy is not so strong that I can't put up a fight, I will use the shortest time possible to regain my dignity. Revenge does not wait overnight.
That is also my personality. "" You want to seek revenge on the Myriad Immortal Pavilion? "Fourth Elder was taken aback. Yi Yun did not have the most arrogant, only more arrogant.
Si Yusheng, Si Shaoyu, they were all arrogant people on the surface. They acted as though they were the most arrogant people in the world. What sort of arrogant person was that? Someone like Yi Yun, who kept a low profile on the surface and did not say a word, had a heart that the entire 12 Empyrean Heavens could not tolerate. That was true arrogance!
"What right do you have to seek revenge on the Myriad Immortal Pavilion? According to what I know, you only have the strength of an early-stage Supremacy. Against the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, you are like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. "
"Naturally." Yi Yun nodded. "I do not have that strength, but I can develop allies."
"Hahaha!" Fourth Elder laughed. "Aren't you just trying to use my Guiyuan family as a tool? Why should my Guiyuan family listen to you?"
"Fourth Elder, you are mistaken on one point. It is not only the Guiyuan family …" Yi Yun paused when he said that. "At least there is City Lord Qin. Other than that, I will try to win over the Paradise Chapter … The alliance of a few factions should be enough, right? As for why I have the right … "
"Firstly, it's because of my future. I will sign a non-aggression pact with all the factions that cooperate with me. The pact will last forever. As long as I do not perish, you will gain a powerful ally in the future. That would be something to be happy about."
"As for the second …" Yi Yun paused when he said that. He turned to look at Fairy Purple Rain and said with a smile, "What if I say that I can cure Fairy Purple Rain's illness?"
"What?" Fairy Purple Rain subconsciously took a step back and covered her mouth. She had been suffering from the illness for so long that her body was turning weaker and weaker. Even though she was putting up a front, her heart was in excruciating pain. Sometimes, she would even feel despair in the dead of night.
She had imagined countless times that if she could not find a solution to the plague, she would become a complete cripple or be possessed by the evil entity in her body. That would be a terrifying scene.
She wanted to find Yi Yun, but she never believed that Yi Yun could cure her illness. From what Yi Yun had done to Dong Xiaowan, he could only alleviate the symptoms.
Now, Yi Yun said that he could cure the plague. The impact on Fairy Purple Rain's mind was obvious.
