You call this the way of the sword?

When he entered the secret realm, Qiao Lie was still in a daze until suddenly a pair of large hands picked him up in a princess carry, and he subconsciously hugged the other person's neck.

Then he suddenly woke up with a start, "Who!?"

Looking up in astonishment, he realized it was a soul puppet summoned by Yang Qingfeng.

"This place is not safe to stay for long."

Yang Qingfeng summoned a female sword spirit for Qiao Wanyi and said to the siblings, "The Sun family will definitely not let this go. They will probably send people over soon. I will open up the secret realm as quickly as possible. We can talk about any problems after we get out of here."

Qiao Lie wanted to struggle a bit more, but upon hearing this, he gritted his teeth and stopped moving.

He's not a clueless person, it's just that this princess carry was too embarrassing!

In contrast, Qiao Wanyi is much happier.

Although the female sword spirit's face was not clearly visible, her graceful figure, which could be seen and touched, was even smooth and soft to the touch, almost causing her to reveal her wolfish nature.

Without saying anything more, Yang Qingfeng directly summoned the Yu Jun Sword and flew towards the core town.

Looking down from the air during the journey, we indeed saw several small teams.

Most of them were wearing the robes of the Sun family, and some were rogue cultivators hired by the Sun family. At this moment, they were fighting with the ghost soldiers and searching everywhere for Sun Longwen's corpse.

Suddenly, some of the rogue cultivators noticed the anomaly in the sky.

"Look! Someone's flying in the sky!"

"What kind of crazy dream is this? The highest level in this area is 19, how could anyone possibly fly..."

Before one of the Sun family cultivators could finish speaking, 50 sword spirits swooped down from the sky, trailing sword light like a blue-white meteor shower.

A level 25 Sword Soul has a total of 4700 points in all four attributes, while a level 19 cultivator, even with a two-piece Ghost King jewelry set, cannot reach a maximum main attribute of 3000.

In addition, there is a 25x damage boost from [Sword Control].

This massacre that fell from the sky ended almost as soon as the bodies hit the ground.

Without exception, all the squads were instantly killed by the Sword Soul with a single sword strike.

He could kill dozens of people in an instant without any communication or room for maneuver, with the sole intention of eliminating them completely. As a result, Yang Qingfeng's murderous aura disappeared.

Yun Sheng, who was far away at the stronghold, sensed something and secretly peeked through the mark. She saw Yang Qingfeng slaughtering the Sun family cultivators, and the tea in her hand immediately lost its flavor.

At this moment, three uninvited guests appeared before her.

Two of them were members of the Sun family: Sun Longwen's father and grandfather.

Another one was an assistant they had invited, the commander of the Void Fog stronghold, a ninth-rank colonel.

"Yun Sheng, you know the rules."

"Old Sun was a senior member of our Ninth Legion. He risked his life for the Empire and his military achievements were no less than yours or mine. Now that his grandson has died a violent death, we cannot let him down."

"Hand him over."

"We all know that your Yun family only has one eldest daughter, so where would you get a younger brother?"

The colonel's voice was deep, carrying the unique authority of a soldier.

He wasn't discussing it with Yun Sheng; he was giving her an order.

Yun Sheng is currently a first-rank lieutenant colonel, and the next step would be to become a ninth-rank colonel.

Although the two ranks are not much different, even a difference of one rank is still a difference of one level. The military has always been based on rank and position, not on the person.

The other party was a ninth-rank colonel and the commander of the Void Mist stronghold. Logically speaking, she had no choice but to obey, as disobeying the order would be disobeying military orders.

However, she changed the subject and slowly uttered three words: "Just met her."

Upon hearing this, Sun Longwen's father flew into a rage: "Yun Sheng! You son of a bitch! We were comrades-in-arms at the same time, are you really going to turn against me for the sake of a newcomer?!"

Yun Sheng frowned and said, "Explain yourself. You came to me for no reason and started to turn against me."

Sun Longwen's father, his face contorted with rage, gritted his teeth and said, "You're deliberately covering this up, which means that the newcomer is the criminal. How dare you say we're causing trouble?"

He was barely able to contain his anger and showed signs of wanting to make a move, but fortunately, Grandpa Sun stopped him.

The colonel's face was also grim at this moment, and he said in a deep voice, "Yun Sheng, are you going to disobey orders?"

While brewing tea, Yun Sheng kept an eye on Yang Qingfeng's progress and calmly said, "Colonel Lu must have misunderstood. I'm here on loan as a consul at the exchange; strictly speaking, I'm not your subordinate. How can you say I'm disobeying orders?"

Although the Imperial Exchange is protected by the military, it is not under their jurisdiction. However, the two have been intertwined for many years, and the boundaries between them have become somewhat blurred.

Now that Yun Sheng has directly severed ties, Colonel Lu is helpless for the time being.

Sun Longwen's father was so angry that he started cursing on the spot.

He was already heartbroken that his son had died, but now even his comrades-in-arms were protecting the criminal. At this moment, he wanted nothing more than to tear Yang Qingfeng to pieces, but unfortunately, he had no idea who Yang Qingfeng was.

At this moment, Old Master Sun received a telepathic message and suddenly said, "Alright, since neither of you can give the Sun family an explanation, I won't bother you any longer."

"Zhaowen, let's go."

Yun Sheng's eyes flickered slightly as she caught a glimpse of the murderous intent in Old Master Sun's eyes.

He clearly already knew the situation in the Ghost King's Secret Realm, while Yang Qingfeng was still inside the secret realm.

Everyone else is fine, but if Yang Qingfeng is trapped in the secret realm by this old man, Yun Sheng doesn't think he can escape unscathed.

We need to find a way to stall them.

Yun Sheng thought of many things in an instant, and sighed in agreement with Grandpa Sun's words: "It's not that I can't give you an explanation, it's that you didn't understand what I meant."

Just as Old Master Sun was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks upon hearing this and said calmly, "If that is indeed the case, please explain, Colonel Yun, why you are unwilling to hand over that newcomer to me."

At this moment, Yun Sheng frowned deeply, and said in a low voice as if in great difficulty, "He... really is my brother, my good brother..."

Although the words are the same, different tones and different moods reveal different profound meanings.

Colonel Lu and Sun Zhaowen were both stunned.

They all knew what kind of person Yun Sheng was and what his personality was.

In particular, Sun Zhaowen and Yun Sheng were comrades-in-arms from the same period, so he can be said to be the biggest witness.

Yun Sheng once overpowered all others; he was the victim.

He witnessed Yun Sheng's horrific killings on the battlefield up close.

He knew better than anyone how Yun Sheng had fought his way to where he was today, which was why he had reason to believe that Yun Sheng wouldn't care about the life or death of his youngest son.

However, this little killing god, who is known for her killing and is not someone people dare to approach, suddenly says that she has a good younger brother, who is also a little newcomer who hasn't even grown up yet.

Just as they were shocked and bewildered, Yun Sheng activated the formation and brought up the scene in front of the exchange.

"As I said before, neither I nor Sun Longwen knew anything about his affairs, but you just don't believe me."

"Now I'm revealing him and laying my cards on the table. I, Yun Sheng, have finally found this younger brother. If you still can't understand what I'm saying, don't blame me for being ruthless."

At this moment, Yun Sheng seemed to be laying her cards on the table, speaking more directly and fiercely. What was even more alarming was that despite her fierce expression, a blush of embarrassment appeared on her face.

Sun Zhaowen and Colonel Lu exchanged a glance and quickly stepped forward to check.

In the scene, Yun Sheng and Yang Qingfeng are talking in front of the exchange, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.

Although Yang Qingfeng was a young man, he was quite handsome, especially with his tall and straight figure and the cold and aloof air between his brows. He stood in front of Yun Sheng without being humble or arrogant, which made him appear tall and imposing.

At first glance, the two seem to be a perfect match, a truly well-suited couple.

Moreover, Yun Sheng in the picture is always smiling, and her eyes sometimes show reproach, giving the feeling that she can only dote on him helplessly.

"hiss…"

Sun Zhaowen gasped, looking at Yun Sheng in disbelief. "Weren't you here to recover from your injuries? How... how come you're still here..."

Why are you secretly dating a younger man?

He kept those words stuck in his throat, so uncomfortable that he forgot the purpose of his trip.

Yun Sheng put away the screen and glanced at Sun Zhaowen: "Did it bother you? In short, your son's death has nothing to do with me or him. He's my man, you know what that means."

Sun Zhaowen nodded thoughtfully, about to say something, when he heard Old Master Sun say, "Since it is a misunderstanding, it is the fault of my Sun family. At the latest by tomorrow, I will prepare generous gifts to apologize to Colonel Yun."

"Zhaowen, let's go."

After saying his piece, Grandpa Sun left without giving Yun Sheng a chance to stay.

Sun Zhaowen followed closely behind, saying somewhat uncertainly, "Father, Yun Sheng has a violent temper and is extremely protective of her own. If Long Wen's death is really related to her little lover, she won't be so easy to talk to."

"Perhaps... Long Wen really did die in an accident?"

Grandpa Sun ignored him. His intuition told him that Yun Sheng was just stalling for time, so he quickly walked out of the exchange, summoned his flying artifact, and headed towards the Ghost King's Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, Colonel Lu, still in the courtyard, hesitated repeatedly before asking, "Yun Sheng, you're willing to risk your own life to protect him, just who is this kid?"

After all, it was a pretext she came up with on the spur of the moment, and Yun Sheng herself knew it was hard to convince people. But whether they believed it or not didn't matter; she had already achieved her goal.

When questioned by Colonel Lu, she uttered only six words: "I'm pregnant with his child."

Colonel Lu's face darkened: "Do you think I'd believe your nonsense?"

Yun Sheng touched her lower abdomen without saying a word.

Colonel Lu's lips twitched, knowing he wouldn't get any more information, so he simply turned and left.

Only after the courtyard had completely quieted down did Yun Sheng take out the seal of the Pillar of State General.

Why did the Pillar General send Yang Qingfeng to find him instead of the stronghold commander?

This question had been swirling in Yun Sheng's mind, and now that she knew about Colonel Lu's relationship with the local clans, she had a vague answer.

However, now is not the time to delve into this.

Yun Sheng opened the spatial imprint to check on Yang Qingfeng's situation, and at the same time retrieved everything that happened in the courtyard and transmitted it to him through the divine communication talisman.

This time, Yun Sheng was truly embarrassed. Her ears quickly turned hot and flushed, and she murmured, "What are you saying, 'good little brother'..."

"Becoming a father all of a sudden, was it a surprise or a shock to you?"
