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

Upon hearing Ye Yun's answer, Empress Yunxiao nodded.

"That's for sure. I would never associate with any evil cultivator."

On this point, she gave an extremely affirmative answer.

But after that, Ye Yun still considered it for a moment and asked.

"By the way, senior, where is the envoy from our Ancient Holy Land now, regarding the token of the mission you gave me earlier?"

Since he was only acting as a substitute for him, pretending to be on a mission, he was quite concerned about the safety of those people.

This is why they believe Yunxiao is not a bad person; otherwise, upon seeing the tokens sent, they would have suspected that they had been killed.

Fortunately, Empress Yunxia answered calmly after hearing this.

"You don't need to worry, they are fine now and resting at home."

"If Elder Ye wishes to meet us, we can do so after we finish our conversation."

Hearing this, Ye Yun felt a little relieved, as long as he was safe.

Just then, Empress Yunxiao's gaze fell on Yue Rushuang and Luo Meng, who were standing to the side.

Unsurprisingly, the methods they used to conceal their appearance were all just decorations in his eyes.

After examining it for a while, Empress Yunxiao asked with great interest.

"Speaking of which... what's going on with you two?"

Clearly, she did not recognize Yue Rushuang and Luo Meng.

At this moment, the two women stepped forward and bowed respectfully to him.

"Junior Yue Rushuang from the Moon Wheel Holy Land greets Senior."

"This junior, Elder Luo Meng of the Moon Wheel Holy Land, greets Senior."

Even they had to be respectful and courteous when facing such an Emperor-level senior.

After hearing their self-introductions, Empress Yunxiao looked as if she had suddenly realized something.

"Yue Rushuang... Luo Meng... So it was you two. You are indeed beauties of unparalleled grace."

She looked the two women over and showered them with compliments.

Yue Rushuang felt a little embarrassed about this.

"You flatter me, senior. You are truly a beauty that can topple kingdoms."

Upon hearing this, Empress Yunxiao smiled faintly.

"Miss Yue, you are indeed very modest."

Then, she looked at the two women and spoke slowly.

"But in conclusion, on behalf of Cloud City, I welcome you both."

This statement was perfectly normal, but Yue Rushuang was concerned about something.

She hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but say it.

"Senior, may I ask a question that might be offensive?"

Ye Yun, standing to the side, felt somewhat helpless, thinking to himself, "Why did you ask if I offended you?"

But now that the words have been spoken, he can't say anything more.

In truth, I had a pretty good idea of ​​what she wanted to ask.

Empress Yunxiao paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Sure, go ahead and ask."

Seeing that she was calm, Yue Rushuang thought for a moment and then spoke.

"The senior invited the Ancient Holy Land, the Sword Clan of the Northern Continent Alliance, and even the Azure Dragon Empire."

"But why...did we, the Moon Wheel Holy Land, miss it all?"

"Could it be that there's something wrong with our Moon Wheel Holy Land? Or that we've offended a senior?"

The current situation makes her feel like the Moon Wheel Sanctuary is being ostracized and targeted.

After saying that, she looked at Empress Yunxiao with her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Could you please explain the reason for this matter?"

These questions were clearly within Empress Yunxiao's expectations.

"Of course, I knew you would ask this."

Her eyebrows twitched slightly as she began to explain.

"Actually, this is a misunderstanding on your part, Miss Yue."

"I also sent a messenger to the Moon Wheel Holy Land in the same way."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun and the other two were stunned.

Especially Yue Rushuang and Luo Meng, who showed expressions of surprise.

"Really? But we haven't received any."

Empress Yunxiao shook her head and sighed softly.

"Of course you won't receive it; this messenger lost contact with me a few days ago."

"I also sent people to search for them, but they only found the remaining traces of the other party's profound energy, and their whereabouts are unknown."

This explanation caused Ye Yun and the other two to frown.

"Such a thing actually happens?"

According to the custom of their ancient holy sites or moon-shaped holy sites.

Those cultivators capable of carrying out intercontinental mail delivery missions are at least at the Transcendent Realm.

This is to avoid encountering obstacles or unexpected events along the way.

But now, the disappearance of the messenger from the extraordinary realm has certainly given rise to much speculation.

Ye Yun couldn't help but ask, "Could it be... that the messenger encountered some kind of accident?"

"I cannot be certain about that."

Empress Yunxiao shook her head, unable to offer an answer either.

After all, she was just powerful, not an omniscient immortal.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that the other party should still be alive.

At this moment, Yue Rushuang paused and asked.

"If that's the case...why not send another one?"

However, a messenger at the extraordinary level shouldn't be considered anything special in Cloud City.

However, they did not send any more...

When this matter was mentioned, Empress Yunxiao looked at her and smiled.

"Even so, Miss Yue still came, didn't she?"

This expression seems to say, "Although no more messengers were sent, the goal was still achieved, wasn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Rushuang was taken aback and immediately frowned.

"Did you know I was coming, senior?"

Empress Yunxiao nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

"I suppose so."

Yue Rushuang was initially surprised.

But soon, she vaguely guessed what was going on, and her expression changed slightly.

Immediately, she gave a light snort to Empress Yunxiao.

"It seems... that you have an informant planted in our Moon Wheel Holy Land."

And they weren't just any ordinary informants; they had to be of high status.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have the authority to know that he was going to accompany Ye Yun to Yunxiao City.

Empress Yunxia smiled faintly at this matter.

"That's one way to understand it, Miss Yue."

This can be considered a partial acknowledgment of Yue Rushuang's speculation.

"..."

Yue Rushuang paused for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, I understand."

Although it wasn't outwardly apparent.

But in his heart, he was already thinking about how to find out the other party's informant when he got back.

Although it seems now that Empress Yunxiao is not their enemy.

The thought of having an informant of the other side in your own home is like having a fishbone stuck in your throat.

Especially considering the informant's identity, it's highly likely they hold a high position...

Of course, she remained very calm on the surface.

Empress Yunxiao also shifted her gaze away from her and spoke slowly.

"In my opinion, these trivial matters should be put aside for now."

"We...have more important things to do."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun nodded in agreement.

He looked at Empress Yunxiao and asked directly.

"In that case, shouldn't you explain why you invited us here?"

At this moment, Empress Yunxiao stood up and sat down at a nearby tea table.

He then glanced at them and gestured for them to sit down as well.

Seeing this, Ye Yun and the other two did not stand on ceremony, bowed, and sat down nearby.

At this point, Empress Yunxiao looked at Ye Yun and the other two and asked them directly.

"The three of you should know about the Ascension Sect, right?"

You've definitely asked the right person.

Without saying a word, Ye Yun nodded slightly.

"Of course, apart from the members of the Ascension Sect, probably no one understands the Ascension Sect better than me."

After all, they had infiltrated the territory of the Ascension Sect several times and caused a great disturbance.

Looking across the entire mainland, I doubt anyone else could do that.

From this perspective, it is not an exaggeration for him to say that he is the outsider who understands the Ascension Sect the most.

Upon hearing this, Empress Yunxiao gave a faint smile.

"Then it seems I have indeed chosen the right person."

At this moment, Ye Yun couldn't help but ask.

"Could it be that you, senior, also have a grudge against the Ascension Sect?"

"In that case, I will speak frankly."

Empress Yunxiao pondered for a moment before slowly explaining.

"Years ago, cultivators began disappearing one after another in our Cloud City."

"I sent many people to investigate the cause, but they found nothing."

Upon hearing that a cultivator had gone missing, Ye Yun immediately perked up.

"Senior, do you mean this was done by the Ascension Sect?"

After all, they had been in contact with the Ascension Sect many times.

It is estimated that only the Ascension Sect would have such a great demand for blood-stained cultivators.

And... they have the ability to arrest people.

"Yes, it's them."

Empress Yunxiao nodded and gave a cold snort.

"It was only in the very end, when I personally investigated, that I finally managed to unravel some clues."

"At that time, I only learned the location of their headquarters by capturing a cultivator from the Ascension Sect alive."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun instinctively replied.

"You mean... the Wutong Mountains?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Yunxiao was taken aback.

It seemed that they hadn't expected to hear this name from Ye Yun.

She looked at Ye Yun, seemingly somewhat surprised.

"Elder Ye, you also know about the Wutong Mountain Range?"

Ye Yun coughed lightly and explained.

"It's a long story. It was by chance that I learned that the Wutong Mountains were the location of the Ascension Sect."

Empress Yunxiao pondered for a moment, then said thoughtfully.

"It seems... Elder Ye was also captured alive and knows the high-ranking members of the Ascension Sect headquarters."

Ye Yun nodded frankly at this point.

"Hmm...I guess so."

Based on Bi Feng's performance and strength at the time.

Within the Ascension Sect, he was practically a pillar of strength.

Although not the highest-ranking, they are still considered to be members of a management team with considerable status.

Just then, Luo Meng, who was focused on something else, asked from the side.

"I heard that you've also been to the Wutong Mountains?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun also took it to heart and asked a question in response.

"Yes, with your abilities, you must have achieved something over there, right?"

When this matter was brought up, Empress Yunxiao fell silent for a moment.

Then, she sighed softly, as if she was regretting something.

"No, I didn't gain much. I didn't even see a trace of the Ascension Sect's headquarters."

Upon hearing this, all three were astonished.

Ye Yun frowned and couldn't help but ask.

"How is this possible? We haven't even found the senior?"

During this period, they also conducted detailed theoretical research on the Wutong Mountains.

In terms of size and danger level alone, the Wutong Mountains are nothing to an Emperor-level expert.

With one's consciousness fully awakened, there's nothing that can't be discovered once one takes a stroll inside.

But this Senior Yunxiao actually said that she gained nothing?

"It's not that we didn't find it, it's just..."

Empress Yunxiao sighed softly and explained.

"Back then, I encountered that Ascension Cult Leader."

"what?"

Ye Yun and the other two were stunned for a moment, and immediately asked.

"And then what happened?"
