Perfect World: Sword of Legends

Chapter 162 Greetings
A few days passed quietly.

Yun Ying has walked a long distance, although she is still far away from the Imperial City. Moreover, the aura on her body has become increasingly mellow, like a polished crystal, shining even brighter.

dong dong!

The earth shook, smoke and dust rose into the sky, and there were hundreds of cavalrymen galloping from afar.

This is a team of warriors from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. They walked out of the Imperial City and came to the depths of the desert to investigate the enemy situation. Their leader is a great commander who has reached the First Level of Escape.

"Hmm? There's someone there, be alert!"

Soon, they saw a shadow and immediately became alert. A murderous aura filled the air and runes glowed.

But when they saw the figure clearly, they were all shocked, "A woman?!"

At this moment, the leader's expression changed drastically. He immediately dismounted and saluted the figure, "Greetings, senior."

He did not forget that it was Yun Ying's appearance long ago that changed the situation of a battle and saved the army of the nine heavens and ten earths, of which he himself was one.

Now, seeing Yun Ying again, one can imagine the excitement and awe in his heart.

Considering that the foreign land has been unusually well-behaved during this period, and that strange phenomena can be seen from the direction of Tianyuan from time to time, he can almost conclude that these things are related to Yunying.

Seeing this, all the soldiers immediately dismounted and saluted the approaching figure, "Greetings, senior!"

Yun Ying naturally saw them as well. She appeared in front of them in a flash, her eyes calm, "No need to be polite."

Hearing this, everyone raised their heads, but when they met that gaze, they felt a stinging pain in their eyes and were unable to look directly at it.

very scary!
This was the only thought in their minds at the moment. They couldn't even look directly at the other person. If they looked at him any longer, it would be as if their souls would explode.

Yun Ying naturally noticed this and took out a purple headband and covered her eyes in front of everyone.

"This……"

Seeing Yunying's actions, they were all stunned. They didn't expect Yunying to do this. Isn't she a little too down-to-earth?

"Are you going to go out to perform military duties?"

Yun Ying spoke softly, her voice was ethereal and melodious, yet it also had a heaviness that came with the passage of time, which made people calm down involuntarily.

"Yes, senior."

The commander-in-chief nodded respectfully.

"be careful."

Yun Ying nodded slightly, then walked straight past them.

Hearing these words, they were all stunned for a moment, and then a look of disbelief emerged on their faces. Such a big shot actually told them, the little soldiers, to be careful.

Although it was just a simple sentence, it gave them completely different feelings at that moment and was deeply touching.

In this way, they watched Yun Ying gradually walk away, with solemn expressions and respect in their eyes.

"Alright, continue to perform military duties, remember what the seniors said, be careful and stay safe, and come back alive!"

"Yes!"

Just as Yun Ying was walking in the desert and returning to the Imperial City on foot, something big happened above the Nine Heavens.

The Great Red Sky, one of the Nine Heavens, is in danger. The immortal city guarding the borderland explodes inexplicably, and alien forces invade.

Upon hearing the news, the grand elder of the Heavenly God Academy immediately summoned the Nine Heavens Army and headed to the Great Red Sky Desert to provide support and resist the invasion of the foreign enemies.

As if he felt something, Yun Ying stopped and looked up at the place above the Nine Heavens, where the Great Red Sky was, and remained silent for a long time.

"Every inch of land is stained with blood. Only with bloodshed and sacrifice can there be awakening and a future. Unfortunately, it comes too late. Time does not stop for anyone."

After standing there for a long time, Yun Ying murmured softly, as if she had foreseen the future.

Imperial City, Zhengtian Palace.

When Meng Huo learned that Yun Ying had returned, he came here immediately. He didn't expect that Yun Ying had been away for so long, almost two years.

If the old supreme leader of the Wei family hadn't come to tell him some news about Yun Ying, he would have been unable to sit still and would have gone out to look for someone.

"Elder Yun, you are finally back."

Meng Huo hurried into the hall, looked at the figure drinking tea, and smiled bitterly.

Being a housekeeper is really not an easy job. Who would be able to be a hands-off boss for so long like Yunying?

"Thank you for your hard work during this period, Elder Meng Huo."

Yunying raised her eyes and looked over, smiling slightly.

"Elder Yun, your eyes..."

Seeing Yun Ying covering her eyes with a headband, Meng Huo thought her eyes were injured.

"This, Elder Meng Huo, don't think too much about it. There's nothing wrong with your eyes. You just don't want to put too much pressure on others."

Seeing Meng Huo looking nervous, Yun Ying smiled and shook her head, then invited him to sit down and have a cup of tea.

Hearing this, Meng Huo also breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it was. It's good that he wasn't injured.

But it’s true, after Yun Ying covered her eyes, the oppressive feeling was not so strong, and even he was not trembling with fear.

"Thank you, Elder Yun. You don't need to drink tea. If there is nothing else, I will go back."

Meng Huo declined the invitation to drink tea because he felt that drinking tea alone with Yun Ying was too elegant and he couldn't handle it.

"In this case, please ask Elder Meng Huo to do me a favor."

Seeing Meng Huo's refusal, Yun Ying did not force him, but spoke.

"Elder Yun, please speak."

"Elder Meng Huo, please prepare a visiting card for me and send it to the Wei family."

After hearing this, Meng Huo was completely stunned and extremely surprised. He obviously did not expect that Yun Ying would want to take the initiative to visit someone, and it was the immortal family in the Imperial City, the Wei family.

You know, when Yun Ying first came here, there were so many people sending visiting cards, including the Wei family and other immortal families, but Yun Ying ignored any of them at that time.

At this time, he remembered the last time the old supreme master of the Wei family spoke to him. Could it be related to this?
"Don't worry, Elder Yun. I will do it right away."

Many thoughts flashed through Meng Huo's mind quickly, and he turned and walked out of the Zhengtian Hall.

After giving instructions to Meng Huo, Yun Ying finished the cup of tea in her hand and disappeared in the hall after a while.

On a sacred mountain, there is a thatched hut. Outside the hut, an old man is planting vegetables.

Soon, Yunying's figure appeared.

Seeing the old man swinging a hoe and digging the ground, Yun Ying's eyes showed a hint of surprise. After not seeing him for a long time, the old man actually started growing vegetables like a mortal.

The old man now looks extremely open-minded. Although he shows some signs of old age, he does not give people a feeling of decadence at all.

"Hey, Xiao Yunying, you're back!"

The old man soon noticed Yunying, the visitor, laughed, put down the hoe in his hand, and happily went to make tea.

Even though he saw Yun Ying covering her eyes with a headband, it didn't make any difference to him and he didn't think much about it. It was as if he didn't see it.

"Ancestor, do you want to go back to Three Thousand Dao Provinces?"

After sitting down, Yun Ying began to ask.

The old man smiled and shook his head, "How can I leave if the foreign threat is not eliminated? If a war breaks out, there are things I can do here. It would be great to return home wrapped in my horse's hide!" After hearing the old man's answer, Yun Ying was silent for a while.

"I don't have many years left to live, so if I can die gloriously, my cultivation in this life will not be in vain. With you in the Celestial Tribe, what else can I be upset about?"

The old man continued.

“Then maybe the ancestor won’t get his wish. The foreign lands now regard me as a ghost. As long as I am here, they will not be able to live in peace.”

Yun Ying smiled and said that if they wanted to start a war, it would depend on whether the foreign countries had the courage to do so.

"Hahaha, if that's the case, that would be great."

The old man laughed heartily. He didn't think Yun Ying was joking, because he was aware of everything that had happened in the foreign land during this period of time.

The foreign land has never been so honest, and there have always been strange visions coming from the direction of Tianyuan, and everyone can guess what is going on.

Unexpectedly, all this was because of Yunying. The gods were both surprised and relieved.

Afterwards, Yunying chatted with the old man about some things and then left.

"God bless our people."

Watching Yunying leave, the old celestial being's eyes were filled with relief. He believed that as long as Yunying was there, the celestial race would be immortal and would never disappear in the long river of history.

When Yunying returned to Zhengtian Palace, Meng Huo was already waiting there.

"Elder Yun, the visiting card has been sent to the Wei family, and the time is set for three days later."

Meng Huo reported.

"Okay, please help Elder Meng Huo."

"Elder Yun, you are too polite. What's the trouble? It's what I should do. I won't bother you anymore."

After saying this, Meng Huo turned around and left Zhengtian Palace.

The news quickly spread that Yun Ying would visit the Wei family in three days, which caused a sensation in Diguan.

"Is this true? The guy from Zhengtian Palace is actually going to visit the Wei family!"

"Of course it's true. I saw with my own eyes that Elder Meng Huo brought a visiting card to the Wei family."

"Why is that? Isn't the guy in Zhengtian Palace the one who ignores everyone? Why did he suddenly think of visiting the Wei family?"

"Be careful with your words, ignore everyone. That person was not in Zhengtian Palace before and only came back recently. Moreover, this visit to the Wei family must be unusual!"

"Yes, that man in Zhengtian Palace is elusive and has his own unique way of doing things. There must be a deep meaning behind his visit to the Wei family this time!"

Hearing that Yun Ying had sent a visiting card to the Wei family and would visit in three days, many people were talking about this matter.

Two years ago, since Yun Ying entered the Zhengtian Temple and carved the words, many people were attracted to go to the outside of the Zhengtian Temple to observe the three big words.

It is a pity that only masters who have reached the level of "Kill Me" can barely afford to watch it. Below that level, just one glance will make you dizzy and unable to stand steadily.

However, only masters who have reached the level of "Kill Me" understand that observing those three words has its benefits. One can use the sword intent contained in them to cleanse the soul and eliminate the evil thoughts and demons in the heart.

The only pity is that you can't observe for too long. The longer you observe, the stronger the sword intent you endure will become, and you will soon reach your limit and won't be able to continue observing.

Therefore, over the past year or so, when Yun Ying was away, many cultivators at the level of Zhanwo in the Imperial City came to watch out of curiosity.

As the steward of Zhengtian Palace, Meng Huo did not drive people away directly. He turned a blind eye to it. These people just wanted to have some fun and would not come again.

Moreover, when one's cultivation reaches such a high level, it would be embarrassing to just stay there. Everyone has to save face and won't be so shameless.

No matter what, Zhengtian Temple is private territory. How can we let outsiders hang around outside the door all the time? The guards are not there to eat for nothing.

Now that Yunying is back, she naturally won't let outsiders get close to her.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Yun Ying walked out of the hall and looked in the direction of the Wei family. The next second, a path of light extended out from under her feet. Light rained down and the colored light was extremely gorgeous, like a galaxy across the universe.

Under the guards' awed gazes, Yun Ying stepped onto the path of light and disappeared into the sky in an instant.

"Look, what is that!"

"It's the guy from Zhengtian Palace who's traveling to visit the Wei family!"

"Such a grand ceremony is like the Supreme being traveling!"

In the Imperial City, many people looked up at the brilliant path of light and were shocked.

Wei family.

As an immortal family residing in Diguanzhong, their ancestral land is vast, with palaces in groups, sacred mountains one after another, and countless magical springs and waterfalls.

Today, the top leaders of the Wei family gathered together, even the old supreme showed up and did not stay in seclusion.

Such a large-scale ceremony was made just to prepare for Yun Ying's visit. Ever since Meng Huo handed over the visiting card three days ago, the Wei family had begun preparations in order to avoid neglecting the distinguished guest.

If other people in the Imperial City knew about this, they would be dumbfounded that an immortal family would go to such lengths just because of a visit from one person.

"Ancestor, everything is ready."

A middle-aged man spoke respectfully. He was the current patriarch of the Wei family and also a powerful man at the peak of the first level of escape.

"Well," the ancestor of the Wei family was wearing a red-gold robe and had a head full of white hair, but he was very imposing, and his eyes flashed with brilliance from time to time.

"Grandmaster, did you really lend the family's inherited immortal weapon to that person?"

The patriarch of the Wei family couldn't help but ask. If the other two old supremes hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have known about it.

Lending out the inherited immortal weapon is a big deal. The ancestor made the decision alone to lend out the Scarlet Phoenix Tower. If it were someone else, they would probably be punished according to clan rules.

"I borrowed it. Wouldn't it be left to gather dust if I didn't lend it to you? Besides, I'll return it today. What do you have to worry about?"

The ancestor of the Wei family glanced at him and said lightly.

"Forehead……"

After hearing the ancestor's impolite words, the head of the Wei family was speechless. He was of a younger generation, so what else could he do?

The tribesmen below saw this scene and laughed unkindly.

"Dad, don't worry. The old man has his own considerations when doing things."

"Yes, Dad, the man from Zhengtian Palace is an upright person, nothing will happen to him."

Four beautiful women smiled and said that they were the most outstanding young people of this generation in the Wei family. The four sisters were called the Four Phoenixes of the Wei family.

"That's right, as the head of the family, there are still a few young people who can see through it today."

The ancestor of the Wei family glanced at the head of the Wei family with a look of disgust.

The head of the Wei family didn't want to talk anymore. Not only did the old ones bully him, but the young ones also didn't stand on his side.

"Ancestor, is the one from Zhengtian Palace really that powerful? She has been staying in Tianyuan all this time. What on earth is she trying to do?"

At this time, an elder of the Wei family asked curiously.

"Who are you asking me? He will be here soon. You all should pay attention. His status is much higher than yours."

The ancestor of the Wei family rolled his eyes, then gave a serious warning, fearing that these clansmen would be too self-righteous and offend Yun Ying.
