Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 318: Throwing Water

Having already made a gentleman's pact with Lan Zhenxin and Wen Daoxian, Yun Yi decided to set off back to Crescent Moon City.

Before leaving, he asked Bai Ze if he still had any attachments in the Demon Capital, as he was afraid he might not be able to return for a long time.

Moreover, now that the seal is gone, those cultivators will dig it up from the ground, and even if you come back, it will be completely unrecognizable.

Places like Dragon Heart Palace and Lung Mountain, which are difficult for ordinary cultivators to destroy, might become strongholds for certain forces in the future.

The cultivation world emphasizes "making the most of waste".

Bai Ze was initially saddened, thinking that most of the demon beasts in the city had been captured by the Tianhai Treasure Ship, and for a moment his little head couldn't figure out whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

As an ancient demon beast, although it has developed sentience, it is still inferior to humans.

Yun Yi patted the little guy's head and said, "Then let's go back now."

Zhuque, standing to the side, said unwillingly, "Really, can't I even touch it?"

But for some reason, Bai Ze was extremely resistant to her, or rather, apart from Yun Yi, the little guy was unwilling to get close to anyone.

Suzaku said sullenly, "The little thing is not cute at all."

She had barely finished speaking when she tripped over her own gold and red ribbons and nearly fell.

It was truly bizarre that a cultivator was almost embarrassed by his own natal magic weapon. Unfortunately, Zhuque couldn't immediately suspect Bai Ze, and after much thought without reaching a conclusion, she had no choice but to give up.

Yun Yi flicked Bai Ze on the forehead, "All you do is bully her, why don't you go and deal with the Dao Integration Realm cultivator?"

Bai Ze thought to himself, "Actually, I used it, but the effect wasn't great."

Luck is really hard to play a role in the face of an absolute difference in strength.

On the way, Zhuque was a little worried and said, "It's a pity that Miss is still in seclusion and can't come out to help. But the old sect master is a free man, so why don't I go and bring him here?"

Qiu Feng sneezed. Ever since witnessing Song Guanglin and Demon Lord Yi Tianxing perish together by triggering a heavenly tribulation, he felt that cultivation was actually meaningless and just wanted to spend the rest of his life at home in a leisurely manner.

If my granddaughter could have a child with Yun Yi, I could help take care of the child.

But for now, it's fun to help nurture Dou Li, this promising talent.

Thinking of this, he used the branch in his hand to whip Dou Li's buttocks hard and said, "Wrong posture, do it a thousand more times!"

Poor Dou Li had only enjoyed a few good days before he had to train hard with tears in his eyes.

On the other side, Yun Yi directly rejected Zhuque's plan: "You and I know best the situation of Burial Sword Valley. The greater the power, the more hidden dangers there are. If the old sect leader and Xiu Niang and Hong Ling are not in charge of the valley, there may be trouble."

Zhuque nodded, agreeing that it made sense.

Yun Yi added, "Moreover, things are not as dangerous as you think. The Wen family behind Wen Daoxian has some connections with my master, and I think these connections are probably quite deep."

Such speculation is not unfounded. Wen Daoxian was clearly a Dao Integration Realm cultivator who concealed his identity and set up a deadly trap, yet he did not take any precautions against Yun Yi and showed no malice.

He probably acted this way because of Wang Shenlai's influence.

During their trip to the Demon Capital, most of the demon beasts were captured by the Wen family and taken aboard the Heavenly Sea Treasure Ship. In the eyes of others, the Wen family was the biggest winner of the entire trip.

However, in Wen Daoxian's own opinion, this matter was not over until Bai Ze was found.

This shows that the Wen family still has too many secrets, such as what their purpose is in capturing monsters on a large scale, and what they are looking for Bai Ze for.
Zhuque asked, "What about Lan Zhenxin? She's a demoness from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect; she can turn on you faster than flipping through a book."

After all, Lan Zhenxin had almost killed Hongling, so Zhuque didn't have a good impression of her.

Yun Yi said, "Lan Zhenxin is not difficult to deal with. She has a clear purpose, and everything she does is to improve her poison skills. As long as you give her enough benefits, you don't have to worry about her turning against you."

"That's easy for you to say. What benefits can you offer her?" "Let's try to win her over first."

"Tsk, she's been lusting after you time and time again. You're not planning to repay her with your body, are you?"

Yun Yi looked at Zhu Que and suddenly blinked hard. "I can't control what happens to her, but I'm starting to crave you now."

Zhuque blushed and scolded, "You're not cute at all anymore!"

"how do I say this?"

"I'm always the one teasing you, you're never the one teasing me!"

"Well... things are different now."

"You big jerk, you got the benefits and you're still acting innocent." Zhuque pouted and went to Pei Jianjia's side, ignoring Yun Yi who was now all alone.

Bai Ze couldn't understand these convoluted words, but it inexplicably felt very full, as if it had just eaten a large mouthful of food.

Yun Yi thought to himself, "Zhu Que is really interesting. She used to be the most daring one, but how come her personality has changed overnight?"

This guy is a typical example of someone who's all bark and no bite; he can only win with words.

Now we can't even get a verbal advantage.

His thoughts drifted back to the Overturning Heaven Pavilion. He thought that if they appeared in Crescent Moon City, it would mean that the Heavenly Pillar had indeed not been discovered, and that they were also looking for a way to break the deadlock.

That couldn't be better.

There's a saying that goes something like this: sometimes doing nothing and waiting for the enemy to make a fool of themselves is a good strategy.

……

Ye Nianyi's sudden return home "terrified" her father.

Ye Ling actually cried a little over this, and after confirming that his daughter was no longer in danger, he laughed for a long time. For a while, everyone in the city lord's mansion thought that the master had gone mad.

Tie Hong noticed Ye Nianyi's improved cultivation and praised her endlessly, saying that Crescent Moon City had actually produced a potential cultivator.

She's already at the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time. If she were given more time, what would become of her?
Seeing that everything at home was normal, Ye Nianyi finally felt relieved. Then she heard from her father that something big had happened to Da Xia recently.

The Prince Xian and Prince Duan, who plotted against Crescent Moon City, are both dead. Now, with the Grand Princess assisting the Emperor and Qin Dingfeng providing strong support, the situation in Great Xia has completely stabilized.

Speaking of this matter, Tie Hong praised Yun Yi highly. The two of them had naturally heard from Yun Yi about his impersonation of Prince Xian, Su Xin, to enter the capital. They both felt that although the young man seemed to be henpecked, he actually had the well-being of the people in his heart.

Ye Nianyi smiled when she heard the news about Yun Yi.

Ye Ling knew her daughter best, so she cleared her throat and took the lead from Tie Hong: "Speaking of which, Yun Yi just got married not long ago."

Unexpectedly, Ye Nianyi remained calm and unchanged, saying, "Brother Yun and Sister Song's love is stronger than gold, so it doesn't really matter whether they get married or not."

The girl had long seen through this matter and had been heartbroken by it, so she now felt quite invincible.

Ye Ling tentatively asked, "And what about him?"

Ye Nianyi said frankly, "Although Mr. Wang did not take me as his disciple, he has been kind enough to teach and guide me, so Brother Yun is at least half my senior brother. Also, Brother Yun saved my life when he took me to find the Nine-Turn Soul-Stabilizing Pearl."

The father was greatly pleased to hear this, thinking that his daughter had grown up and finally understood the principle of not putting all her eggs in one basket.

Unexpectedly, Ye Nianyi then said, "But I'm definitely not satisfied with just being his senior and junior brother. I've thought about how to repay his life-saving grace, and I feel that the most appropriate thing to do is to repay him with my body."
