A wasted cultivation cultivator, whose senior sister comes to his door asking for pills at the start

Ye Yun's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected this turn of events, and he immediately pressed for an answer.

"What opportunity?"

It is clear that the contents of this letter did indeed help him.

I just don't know how they changed their minds.

After that, Yue Wumian looked at Ye Yun and said calmly.

"Have you ever heard of the Moon Goddess Trial of my Moon Wheel Holy Land?"

This name was unfamiliar to Ye Yun; he probably hadn't heard of it before.

Then he shook his head and said.

"This junior has never heard of it, and would be grateful if the senior could enlighten me."

All I can say is that the name sounds impressive.

At this moment, Yue Wumian pondered for a moment and then explained it to him.

"You can think of it as a test for our Moon Wheel Holy Land to select the next Holy Lord."

"All the holy rulers of the past had to pass the test of trials."

This clearly includes himself, who had also experienced the Moon Goddess Trial before.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun was taken aback and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Senior, do you mean you want me to become the Holy Lord of the Moon Wheel?"

After all, the other party's words were rather ambiguous.

But unsurprisingly, as soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at fiercely by Yue Wumian.

"I am still alive and well, and I don't need you to be any kind of Holy Lord."

He thought to himself, "Is this kid plotting to seize power?"

Not only did he want to abduct his daughter, but he also wanted to make the entire Moon Wheel Holy Land his own.

Ye Yun was a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

"So, senior, are you saying that if I pass this Moon Goddess Trial, you will acknowledge my relationship with Ru Shuang?"

Yue Wumian did not give a direct affirmative answer to this.

"I will consider it when the time comes."

His answer remained noncommittal.

"Um, that works too!"

Ye Yun nodded; it was better to be considered than to be rejected outright.

Moreover, based on Ye Yun's understanding of these top-tier experts, they simply don't like to make overly definitive statements.

In fact, the so-called "considering it over" is tantamount to agreeing.

Seeing that Ye Yun agreed, Yue Wumian's brows twitched slightly, and she offered a reminder.

"Let me tell you in advance, this Moon Goddess Trial is the most difficult trial in our Moon Wheel Holy Land."

"And there are certain dangers, even life-threatening ones, in the process."

Ye Yun smiled faintly at Yue Wumian's reminder and gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.

"This junior is willing to give it a try!"

After all, it was an opportunity that the Holy Lord had fought for him, so Ye Yun naturally wanted to make the most of it.

Seeing this, Yue Wumian raised an eyebrow and slowly began to explain.

"You'd better not be too impulsive; the danger of this trial is no joke."

"With your talent, your future achievements are destined to be remarkable, so it's not worth it to perish here for it."

Perhaps it was because of the previous pills and secret techniques that his attitude towards Ye Yun improved somewhat.

At least, they would care a little about his life.

However, Ye Yun's attitude was extremely firm, and he said with confidence in his eyes.

"For Ru Shuang, I'm willing to try anything, even if it means facing nine deaths!"

Seeing his confident and resolute expression.

Yue Wumian paused for a moment, as if she had thought of something.

After a while, he nodded slightly and said calmly to him.

"Alright, since you insist on taking on the challenge, then so be it."

Then, he glanced at the jade boxes in front of him, pondered for a moment, and said...

"If you really die, I will send someone to return these pills to you."

Yue Wumian did not refuse the polite formalities and temporarily put away the pills.

As a result, Ye Yun breathed a slight sigh of relief.

If the other party is willing to accept a gift like elixirs, it means their attitude has softened somewhat.

Ye Yun smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

"It's alright. Since this pill has been given away, it belongs to you, senior."

"Even if something really happens to me, I don't need to repay it. Consider it a gift to compensate Ru Shuang."

Upon hearing this, Yue Wumian seemed somewhat surprised and nodded.

"Sure, no problem."

He thought to himself, "This kid really doesn't treat pills like pills."

Even he was a little curious about just how wealthy Ye Yun, or rather, that mysterious Fellow Daoist Nangong, really was.

After that, Ye Yun couldn't wait to ask.

"Senior, when can I take on the Moon Goddess Trial you mentioned?"

He was still thinking about finishing things quickly so he could get close to Ru Shuang as soon as possible.

After thinking about this for a moment, Yue Wumian pondered and said...

"The Moon Goddess Trial requires a day of preparation. You will remain in the Holy Land during this time."

"Once you're all ready, someone will naturally notify you to attend."

Having a day to prepare is not bad.

Ye Yun immediately nodded, cupped his hands, and smiled.

"No problem, then I'll do as you said, and be ready to call me anytime!"

Seeing that he agreed, Yue Wumian nodded slightly.

Then, he said something without any politeness.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, kid, you can get lost. Remember, don't cause trouble in my Moon Wheel Holy Land."

Although his attitude softened somewhat, he was still clearly somewhat resentful towards Ye Yun.

However, Ye Yun didn't bother with such a small matter and grinned.

"Alright, senior! I'll take my leave now!"

After saying this, he bowed and turned to leave.

Watching his departing figure, Yue Wumian's expression was somewhat complicated.

"That brat, sigh, really..."

Without a doubt, Yue Wumian's feelings for Ye Yun were a mixture of love and hate.

Needless to say, the other person is exceptionally talented, generous, and their future prospects are limitless!

It's equally hateful that he has many women, is a womanizer, and if Ru Shuang becomes his Daoist partner, she will likely suffer a lot of grievances!

That's why, even though Jin Liuli's letter gave him the opportunity to challenge Ye Yun, he still gave Ye Yun the opportunity to do so.

Deep down, however, she still hesitated, wondering whether she should hand her daughter over to him...

……

When Ye Yun came out of the main hall, Xu Qingyan and Luo Meng came to greet him.

The former showed Ye Yun great concern and asked in a gentle voice.

"Master, how are you? Is everything going smoothly?"

After all, Ye Yun had already explained the whole story to her before she arrived.

Therefore, it is very clear how dangerous it is for the other party to face the Holy Lord of the Moon Wheel this time!

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun smiled and nodded.

"It's alright, that senior did give me a chance, to be fair."

"I see, as expected of the master!"

Xu Qingyan's eyes lit up, filled with admiration.

This is not a compliment, but a genuine exclamation of amazement.

After all, not everyone can do it, to persuade an Emperor-level expert to let his daughter become his concubine.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be sent flying after just a short meeting!

Ye Yun sighed softly at this.

"I guess we were just lucky this time."

Luo Meng, who was standing nearby, was taken aback when she heard his words.

"Boy, have you chosen to abandon darkness and join our Moon Wheel Holy Land?"

Besides, she didn't think the Holy Lord would let him go.

However, Ye Yun shook his head.

"Of course not."

Luo Meng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm? So, between Hong Xian'er and my Highness, who did you choose?"

Clearly, in her mind, Ye Yun could only choose one of them.

But the result was also beyond his expectations.

Ye Yun shrugged and chuckled.

"I didn't choose; I just said they are all very important to me, and I can't give up any of them."

"What?"

Luo Meng's beautiful eyes widened slightly.

"You really said that? And then you walked out completely unharmed?"

Ye Yun nodded slightly and responded.

"Otherwise what? I... I don't think I'm missing any parts."

"this……"

Luo Meng felt extremely incredulous and looked at Ye Yun in surprise, asking him a question.

"How is that possible? Under these circumstances, it's already a favor that the Holy Lord didn't kill you; how could he give you a chance?"

After all, she had witnessed before how furious the Holy Lord was when he learned of this matter.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to lock Yue Rushuang up and make her reflect on her mistakes.

I thought that if Ye Yun hadn't made sacrifices during his visit, none of us would have been able to leave alive.

But this result was truly unexpected...

Ye Yun smiled faintly and explained.

"Perhaps it's because His Majesty was moved by my sincere sincerity?"

"..."

Luo Meng's lips twitched. "Akagi-sensei?"

Given the Holy Lord's previous rage, he probably even wanted to massacre the entire city!

Luo Meng looked at him strangely and couldn't help but ask.

"What exactly...did you do?"

Ye Yun pondered for a moment, then gave a brief explanation.

"It's nothing much, just some small gifts, a scroll of secret techniques, and a letter from our Holy Lord."

"this……"

Luo Meng paused, feeling puzzled. She figured the answer might be in the gift Ye Yun had given her.

However, given her background, it's not really appropriate to inquire further.

In the end, he could only shake his head and not ask any further questions.

Just then, Ye Yun pondered for a moment and asked.

"Speaking of which, I heard Ru Shuang has been put in solitary confinement. Could I go and see her?"

Luo Mengliu's eyebrows twitched slightly as she tentatively offered a reminder.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say to keep your distance from His Highness?"

If that's the case, she really can't bring him to meet the other party.

Fortunately, Ye Yun shrugged.

"No, the senior only told me not to cause trouble in the Holy Land."

"I see... That's incredible."

Luo Meng became more and more surprised as she thought about it.

Since there is no explicit prohibition, it means that His Majesty's attitude is still wavering.

They are even relatively inclined to accept Ye Yun; otherwise, they would definitely keep their distance.

Then, she glanced at Ye Yundao.

"Alright, since His Majesty the Holy Lord hasn't given any instructions, you may follow me..."

"That's troublesome."

Ye Yun smiled faintly and bowed to him.

Before long, led by Luo Meng, they arrived at a familiar palace.

This is Yue Rushuang's palace, the same one Ye Yun had visited before.

Clearly, the so-called confinement was simply to keep Yue Rushuang in her own palace to reflect on her actions.

Two maids stood on either side of the entrance. Upon seeing Luo Meng approach, they quickly bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Elder Luo!"

Luo Meng simply nodded in acknowledgment and then led Ye Yun inside.

After they went inside, the two maids at the door exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat surprised.

The two women communicated telepathically, and said with some surprise.

"Did you see that? That guy was so handsome! Do you know him?"

"It feels... kind of familiar."

"Are you sure? Is it from our holy land?"

"It doesn't seem so. I vaguely remember this person as Ye Yun from the Ancient Holy Land?"

"Ah? Is it Ye Yun, the one who secretly became His Highness's Daoist partner?"

"It looks like him. I remember seeing him before."

"Strange, if it really is him, how dare he come to our Moon Wheel Holy Land? Doesn't he have any fear of death?"

"Shh...this has nothing to do with us."

"..."

The two women whispered among themselves.

Meanwhile, Ye Yun and his two companions, after entering the house, were led to one of the rooms by Luo Meng.

Ye Yun still remembered that this was Yue Rushuang's boudoir, or rather, her bedroom.

Luo Meng gently knocked on the door, and a familiar, cool female voice came from inside.

Who is it?

The voice was indeed Yue Rushuang's, but it lacked some strength.

Luo Meng replied softly.

"Your Highness, it's me."

"What's up?"

You could tell from Yue Rushuang's unhappy tone that she was still angry.

Previously, she was quite mature.

But now, she's like a sulking little girl who's locked herself in her room.

Luo Meng was also aware of this, and took a deep breath.

"Your Highness, please don't be angry. I've brought someone with me, and I think you should meet him."

Although she didn't quite approve of Princess Ru Shuang getting together with Ye Yun.

But at the same time, I don't want to see the other person so depressed.

However, Yue Rushuang only replied coldly.

"I don't want to see anyone right now."

I originally wanted to give Yue Rushuang a surprise, but I didn't expect her to be so stubborn.

This left Luo Meng somewhat helpless, and she could only glance at Ye Yun beside her.

Having no other choice, Ye Yun stepped forward and spoke.

"Ru Shuang, if you don't want to see me, then I'll have to go back now."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the door was flung open with a bang.

Ye Yun's hair was whipped up by the wind that came up with the door.

Then I saw Yue Rushuang wearing a blue silk nightgown, who had already opened the door and come out.

"I'm going as fast as frost, at the speed of light!"

Ye Yun looked at Yue Rushuang in front of him and really didn't expect her to be so fast.

The other person was even barefoot when they came out.

It's clear that Yue Rushuang couldn't wait to see him after hearing his voice.

Just then, Yue Rushuang, who saw Ye Yun, rushed forward and asked in astonishment.

"Ye Yun? What are you doing here?"

Clearly, she found Ye Yun's appearance quite unbelievable.

For a moment, I even wondered if I was still dreaming.

Ye Yun smiled faintly and asked jokingly.

"What? Does Ru Shuang not welcome me?"

"What? What happened?!"

Yue Rushuang stepped forward, grabbed his hand, moved it up and down, and examined Ye Yun's body before asking a question.

"After you came here, didn't my father make things difficult for you?"

She was looking Ye Yun up and down to see if he was injured or anything.

It's fair to say that even if Ye Yun had been carried over with his skin torn and bleeding, she wouldn't have been too surprised.

Ye Yun shook his head slightly and explained with a smile.

"Don't worry, His Majesty didn't make things difficult for me, it was just a small test."

After all, before this, the Holy Lord had only exerted pressure with profound energy on him, and hadn't done anything else.

As for the Moon Goddess Trial that follows, that is something that has not yet happened.

Yue Rushuang asked in surprise.

"The test? You passed it?"

"Of course."

Ye Yun nodded slightly, grabbed her hand, and grinned.

"Otherwise, how could I have come here to see you?"

"That's... true too."

Just like his father's angry expression at the time.

If it weren't for his approval, Ye Yun would probably be in grave danger right now, let alone be able to come and see him.

At this moment, Ye Yun looked at her disheveled hair and took a deep breath.

"Ru Shuang, I'm so sorry to have made you worry during this time."

After all, I clearly didn't want the other person to suffer or be troubled because of my affairs, but something still happened.

Yue Rushuang shook her head slightly and pursed her lips.

"No, I should be the one apologizing to you. We agreed I would try my best to persuade Father, but..."

In this matter, she underestimated how much her father cared.

As a result, he messed things up and had no choice but to take a desperate gamble.

At this moment, Ye Yun gently stroked her cheek and said softly.

"It's okay, this is something I should have faced anyway."

"You don't need to fall out with your father over this; he's genuinely worried about you."

"Given my situation, it's understandable that he wouldn't feel comfortable entrusting you to me."

In Ye Yun's view, this was ultimately caused by him.

He neither wanted to give up on Yue Rushuang, nor did he want this matter to affect the relationship between her and her family.

After all, no matter what, it was Yue Rushuang who would get hurt, which was something he couldn't accept!

His words of comfort calmed Yue Rushuang down a bit, and she nodded.

"Hmm...I understand."

Just then, Luo Meng, who was standing nearby, looked at the two of them.

Seeing their heartwarming reunion after a short separation, I couldn't help but sigh.

"I must say, Your Highness, you really kept this a secret all along."

"They've been together for so long, yet it only came out recently."

"Even I only found out a few days ago that such a big thing had happened."

In fact, ever since she learned about Yue Rushuang's situation, she had wanted to talk to her.

But when the maid said that the other person had been in a low mood and was not seeing anyone these days, she thought she should let her have some peace and quiet.

This was the first time they had met since the news broke, and they couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.

Only now did Yue Rushuang glance at her and sigh softly.

"I'm really sorry, but Ye Yun's identity is special, so I had no choice but to keep it from everyone."

"After all, you know my father's personality..."

Indeed, Luo Meng has already felt this through this incident.

It's probably only because the news came out relatively late that Ye Yun now has a sufficiently high status in the Ancient Holy Land.

And most importantly, they themselves became extremely outstanding, otherwise they would probably have been doomed...

"Your Highness, there's no need to apologize. I understand how you feel."

Luo Meng waved her hand, then glanced at Ye Yun beside her and couldn't help but ask.

"But I don't understand, why him?"

Being suddenly brought up, Ye Yun's lips twitched slightly, and he said helplessly.

"Hey senior, what's wrong with me? I'm excellent too, okay?"

"Excellent? Hmph, then you are very excellent!"

Luo Meng glanced at him and said irritably.

"You already have His Highness, yet you still dare to be fickle. It would be strange if the Holy Lord didn't cause you trouble."

Her words made Ye Yun shake his head helplessly.

"Yes, yes, what you said makes sense."

There was nothing he could say about that.

Just then, Yue Rushuang pursed her lips and said.

"The reason it's him is, of course, because I like him."

She glanced at Ye Yun, her eyes filled with deep affection, without the slightest hint of falsehood.

This face-to-face confession deeply moved Ye Yun.

"Like frost..."

"Stop!"

Luo Mengjian reached out to interrupt the two of them, otherwise she felt she was going to be shown up in front of her again.

But that's not what she wants to know right now.

She looked at Yue Rushuang, frowned, and asked.

"Your Highness says you like him, but where does this liking come from? What is it about him that makes Your Highness so fond of him?"

"Even someone of His Highness's status would willingly become his concubine?"

"I don't deny that he's outstanding, with extraordinary talent, but he's just too much of a womanizer. Are you really going to give yourself to him?"

Ye Yun didn't say anything about these comments.

Mainly, he also wanted to hear Yue Rushuang's thoughts.

At this moment, Yue Rushuang glanced at him.

Even in front of Ye Yun, she spoke without any attempt to hide her true feelings.

"That's because we've been through so much together, so many things!"

"As for this feeling, I find it a little hard to explain right now."

Having said that, she looked at Luo Meng and took a deep breath.

"I can only say that you'll understand when your senior falls in love with someone in the future."
