Standing in front of Divine General Skyjade, Yi Yun felt like he was facing a primordial beast. He took a deep breath and gave Divine General Skyjade a junior's bow.
In fact, in the Sinkhole, Divine General Skyjade had led Yi Yun and company into the ancient battlefield. In a sense, he was considered half a mentor to Yi Yun. It was akin to mortal scholars participating in the imperial examinations. Everyone in the examination hall had to address the examiner as their teacher. In the future, they would visit him during festivals.
"There's no need for formalities. Have a seat."
Divine General Skyjade's voice was deep and had a power that left one's heart astounded. Beside Divine General Skyjade were the two Imperial Preceptors, Lingluo and Kun Xu. They were seated just below Divine General Skyjade. More than half the upper echelons of the White Lunar Divine Empire were seated there. The trio's combined might was like a vast sea of stars. Ordinary people would find it difficult to stand in front of them, but Yi Yun walked in front of them openly and took a seat.
"Yi Yun, you are not bad!" Divine General Skyjade looked at Yi Yun and praised him. "Fifty years ago, when I opened the ancient battlefield's door, I was hoping that my disappointing disciple would be able to accomplish something, but I never expected the most dazzling person to be you. During your trip to the Divine Perish Hall, you obtained a divine treasury that had been buried for hundreds of millions of years. Such providence is not something the average person has."
Yi Yun did not say a word as he listened quietly.
"With such a valuable treasure on you, you should know that many people in the Sinkhole want your life! No one will really do a thing to you in the hundred thousand pavilion palaces, but once you leave, there will probably be people who will kill you for your treasures! "
"Senior, what are you trying to say?" Yi Yun raised his eyelids and looked at Divine General Skyjade.
"I want to say that if you are willing, my White Lunar Divine Empire can guarantee your safety!"
"Oh?" Yi Yun pricked up his brows. He knew that Divine General Skyjade had more to say.
"Yi Yun! You are a smart person. In the ancient battlefield, several Sinkhole powerhouses wanted to kill you, but you managed to lie dormant for decades. Even though you missed the subsequent opportunities, you managed to preserve your life. Now that you have returned safely, it has surprised everyone. Although you did not leave your name on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith, you are a dragon among men from my point of view! "
As Divine General Skyjade spoke, his deep eyes looked at Yi Yun. Yi Yun's reaction was very calm. "Senior, you flatter me. For you to tell me so much, it must have something to do with my wife, right?"
When Yi Yun said that, Imperial Preceptor Lingluo, who was standing beside Divine General Skyjade, rebuked him angrily. "What impudence! Who is your wife? If you continue spouting nonsense, my White Lunar Divine Empire might annihilate you right now! "
State Preceptor Lingluo had always been loyal to the White Lunar Goddess Empress, and it was the same for the empress's successor, Lin Xintong. She couldn't allow Lin Xintong to be sullied by others.
"I'm fine!" Divine General Skyjade interrupted Lingluo. "Yi Yun and Her Majesty had sex in the mortal world. No one can change that."
With Divine General Skyjade saying so, Imperial Preceptor Lingluo had no choice but to drop the matter. All she did was give Yi Yun a warning glance. It was all because of Yi Yun's past. No matter how monstrous Lin Xintong's talent was, she was ultimately not perfect.
Yi Yun completely ignored Imperial Preceptor Lingluo. All he did was look at Divine General Skyjade and wait for him to speak.
"Yi Yun, you should have guessed it by saying that. That's right, my offer of protection comes with conditions. I can guarantee you that the White Lunar Divine Empire will ensure your safety for the next ten thousand years. The opportunities you obtain in the ancient battlefield will be yours. No one can take them away from you. However, you have to swear on your Dao heart to sever all ties with Lin Xintong and never meet her again!"
Yi Yun shook his head with a smile. "As expected. Senior Skyjade is meeting me to make me back off in the face of difficulties. I'm very interested to know what you think of my wife's marriage. What rule does your White Lunar Divine Empire have that requires your empress to remain single her entire life? Or could it be that you have already chosen a husband for her and wish to ally with some powerful faction through this so-called marriage alliance? "
Upon hearing Yi Yun's question, Imperial Preceptor Kun Xu sneered and said, "You are overthinking things. Her Majesty will never choose you regardless of which option she chooses. How can a person who has not even left his name on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith be worthy of Her Majesty?"
Kun Xu had long wanted to kill Yi Yun, but now, with Divine General Skyjade's intention to protect Yi Yun, Kun Xu naturally found Yi Yun an eyesore.
"Enough!" Divine General Skyjade stopped Kun Xu. "Yi Yun, it's not that the White Lunar Divine Empire's empress can't be married, but Her Majesty has a chance of becoming a Godly Monarch in the future. If she chooses a husband, it should be at least ten thousand years later. She should choose someone who also has a chance of becoming a Godly Monarch in the future. If there isn't one, she should remain single her entire life and focus on pursuing the Great Dao. When a woman cultivates to the extremity of martial cultivation, she either has to maintain her Primordial Yin body or have a Dao partner who is equally talented for dual cultivation. For those who pursue the Great Dao, romance is fleeting."
"Oh? What … did you say Primordial Yin body? " Upon hearing Divine General Skyjade's words, Yi Yun was taken aback. Lin Xintong had long been his woman. What Primordial Yin body?
"Shut up!"
Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, Imperial Preceptor Lingluo fumed. She yearned to wipe away everything about Yi Yun.
Yi Yun rubbed his nose. He came to a realization. Lin Xintong cultivated in the Grand Reincarnation Technique, undergoing nine reincarnations. Each reincarnation was a complete transformation, allowing her to mature once again.
Although the Primordial Yin from her first reincarnation was no longer present, preventing her from being perfect, she was able to accumulate Primordial Yin in each subsequent reincarnation, allowing her body to be extremely pure.
This was also one of the heaven-defying aspects of the Grand Reincarnation Technique.
"Senior Skyjade, you seem to be mistaken. I don't need your protection. I can handle any pursuit."
"Oh!?" Divine General Skyjade knitted his brows. He was already extremely benevolent to sit down with a junior like Yi Yun in a calm and amiable manner. After all, Lin Xintong and Yi Yun had gotten married first. Their White Lunar Divine Empire was indebted to Yi Yun, but now, Yi Yun thought nothing of his promise. After all, Skyjade had never gone back on his promises. In the entire Sinkhole, apart from Godly Monarchs, no one treated his promises as heavy as a mountain.
"You really don't know your limits!" Imperial Preceptor Kun Xu could not help but speak up. "Punk! Isn't your so-called handling relying on your soul slave? Do you think your soul slave is invincible? All it can do is bully a junior like Hong Feiyu! "
"Enough!" Although Yi Yun's words sounded unappreciative to Divine General Skyjade, he said patiently, "I've seen a video of your Ancient Fey soul in battle. Your soul slave is indeed powerful, but it is still incomparable to a true Sinkhole overlord. Its strength is even inferior to Primordial Chaos Daolord who perished in the ancient battlefield. Under such circumstances, you have garnered the attention of countless people and offended the Great Cosmic State. If you were to leave the hundred thousand pavilion palaces, you probably wouldn't live past three days."
"Senior Skyjade, there's no need for you to worry about that. I'll make it clear to you that I will not sever ties with Xintong. I appreciate the White Lunar Divine Empire's protection, but I don't need it."
