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

Without hesitation, Ye Yun relayed Nangong Jiutian's previous request.

"Nothing else is needed for now. Senior, just let me go to one of the array's cores and identify what kind of array it is."

Empress Yunxiao frowned at the condition he proposed, seemingly finding it somewhat difficult.

It should be noted that they hadn't discovered many key points in the entire Wutong Mountain range.

Furthermore, each discovered array point is surrounded by formidable defensive forces, making approaching it extremely dangerous.

"Kid, are you really confident you can break the formation?"

Faced with Empress Yunxiao's repeated confirmation.

Ye Yun nodded and said seriously.

"I do have some confidence, but we'll have to see for ourselves to know for sure."

He didn't make a complete promise, leaving himself a little room for maneuver, so as not to speak too definitively.

What if the formation set up by that Ascension Cult Leader is so powerful that even Nangong Jiutian can't use it? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?

"Is that so...?"

Rationally speaking, Empress Yunxiao was not too keen on agreeing.

But after some thought, she seemed to have made up her mind and nodded to Ye Yun.

"No problem, I can help you fulfill this condition."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun smiled happily.

"Alright, alright, thank you very much, senior."

Empress Yunxiao looked at him and gave a very impolite snort.

"After this is over, I hope you won't disappoint me, or you'll be in for a world of hurt."

If Ye Yun dared to deceive her in this matter, she would definitely teach him a lesson.

Ye Yun didn't take her threat too seriously, and simply assured her.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Seeing his confident demeanor, Empress Yunxiao decided to give it a shot.

"Okay, it's settled then."

Strictly speaking, even she couldn't figure out where Ye Yun's confidence came from.

After that, Ye Yun remembered something and quickly asked a question.

"By the way, senior, has my master come here?"

At that time, if Master needed to send a message to the Allied Forces, he would definitely have to come here.

Upon hearing this, Empress Yunxiao immediately nodded in response.

"You're right about what Peak Master Bai said; he did indeed come to the city earlier."

Ye Yun was slightly taken aback, then frowned and asked.

"Hmm? You mean...she's not here right now?"

Empress Yunxiao did not try to hide anything and answered frankly.

"That's right, she's already gone to scout out that base."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun's expression immediately changed.

"What? My master went to the base that Senior Yueling mentioned?"

"Yes, that's right."

Empress Yunxiao just gave an affirmative answer.

Ye Yun, standing before him, was no longer calm.

"Senior, are you deliberately trying to harm my master?"

"Even Senior Yueling failed there, and you still want my master to go?"

Although his master is now a powerful expert in the Imperial Realm, he has only just entered a new realm.

In terms of strength alone, there is a considerable gap between her and the previous senior Yue Ling.

Seeing that he seemed a little angry, Empress Yunxiao glanced at him and explained calmly.

"First of all, this was something your master brought up herself; I never intended for her to go."

"In addition, she did not go alone; several high-ranking Dao cultivators accompanied her."

"Unless you encounter a God-level cultivator head-on, there shouldn't be any problems."

With several cultivators of the Imperial Dao traveling together, they could indeed roam freely across the continent today.

After hearing this explanation, Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and the anger in his heart subsided abruptly.

"I see. I'm so sorry, it seems I misunderstood you, senior."

Empress Yunxiao glanced at him, her expression indifferent.

"I didn't realize you cared so much about your master."

"Of course."

Ye Yun nodded without hesitation and said earnestly.

"My master is no ordinary person to me!"

"Oh?"

Perhaps it was Ye Yun's attitude, which was so different from his usual one, that piqued the interest of Empress Yunxiao, who then asked a question.

"What? Was there anything more than a master-disciple relationship between you two before?"

She had only asked the question casually.

As a result, Ye Yun appeared to be deep in thought.

"Well... I'd say a little bit."

"Um?!"

Empress Yunxiao was stunned.

She gazed at Ye Yun and couldn't help but ask.

"Could it be that there's something between you two...?"

Ye Yun then realized that there were some things he couldn't say carelessly.

He immediately coughed lightly and replied perfunctorily.

"That's not important, as long as Master is alright."

This attitude only fueled Empress Yunxiao's suspicions.

They even felt that there must be some untold story between the master and disciple.

However, as Ye Yun said, these things are not important.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Empress Yunxiao pondered for a moment, seemingly considering something.

After a while, she slowly spoke.

"As for taking you into the Wutong Mountains to observe the formation's core up close, let's set off later tonight."

Ye Yun was taken aback for a moment, but didn't think much of it.

Ultimately, it's about infiltration, and in the middle of the night, the guards' attention will be somewhat distracted.

Therefore, Ye Yun agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, it's settled then."

After settling the matter, Ye Yun didn't forget to recount his senior sister's experiences as well.

After saying that, Ye Yun didn't forget to give a reminder.

"Senior, I think the place that my senior sister and the others discovered might yield some results."

"If we have enough manpower here, it would be best to go and investigate."

After hearing his story, Empress Yunxiao became wary and began to pay attention.

Their allied forces are currently locked in a stalemate with the Ascension Cult.

If we can seize this opportunity to find the enemy's weakness, we might be able to make a huge breakthrough on the main battlefield!

"Understood. I will send people to investigate and will notify you as soon as there are results."

"That won't be necessary. Just inform the representative of the Ancient Holy Land."

After all, my future may not always be here.

The easiest and quickest way to convey a message to him is to inform the ancient holy site.

Empress Yunxiao thought for a moment and agreed.

"Yes, I will inform them first."

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go and rest for a bit."

Ye Yun grinned. There was still a long time before midnight, so he planned to rest for a bit.

"Wait a minute, I have something else to ask you."

Just as Ye Yun was about to leave, Empress Yunxiao called him back.

When Ye Yun turned his head, he saw Empress Yunxiao staring at him and asking in a low voice.

"You haven't told anyone else about what happened between us, have you?"

Ye Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and shook his head.

"Of course not! Having already promised you, how could I dare to go back on my word?"

Gossiping about other things is fine, but that's another story.

This was a matter of life and death, so Ye Yun naturally wouldn't mention it to anyone.

Having received a satisfactory answer, Empress Yunxiao nodded.

"Very well, you can go and rest now. I will send someone to inform you when the time comes later."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun quickly nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior!"

After that, Ye Yun left temporarily.

He first spoke with his senior female colleagues, telling them that they no longer needed to worry about the escort team.

But shortly after he arrived at his resting room, there was a knock on the door.

"Junior brother, are you asleep?"

Judging from that voice, it's undoubtedly Senior Sister Qianrou.

Looking at the sky again, it was already quite late.

Ye Yun was somewhat puzzled and couldn't help but ask.

"Senior sister, is there something you need so late?"
