It's a bit of a shame that we weren't able to invite them to Cloud City.

However, Empress Yunxiao still chose to respect this person's opinion and nodded.

"In that case, see you next time."

After saying that, she glanced at Ye Yun and said meaningfully.

"Elder Ye, you are welcome at any time in Cloud City."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun paused for a moment, then returned a smile.

See you next time.

……

After that, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian left together.

As for Empress Yunxiao, she gazed intently at the departing two figures.

"This Fellow Daoist Nangong is truly mysterious..."

Even with his own strength, at such close range, he couldn't sense the slightest leakage of profound energy from the other party.

In this situation, either the other party is an ordinary person.

Either her control over Xuan Qi has reached an unbelievable level.

So much so that even she couldn't detect the other party's leaking profound energy.

The former is definitely impossible, so it can only be the latter.

"Never mind, there will be plenty of time to figure it out later."

Empress Yunxiao shook her head, withdrew her gaze, and suddenly transformed into a streak of light and flew away.

On the other side of the Western Continent, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian flew away on their swords.

Compared to when they arrived, the two left much faster.

Even Ye Yun, watching the scenery rushing by, couldn't help but make a comment.

"Hey senior, do we really have to move this fast?"

In response to his question, Nangong Jiutian rolled his eyes.

"Enough with the nonsense, I'm in a hurry."

"Are you planning to practice the ascension technique?"

Nangong Jiutian narrowed his eyes and replied without hesitation.

"That's right, I happen to have plenty of time now."

Now that she has been resurrected and her lifespan has been greatly restored, she has plenty of time.

As long as he doesn't reach the Great Perfection of the Emperor Rank and then get attacked by the Heaven and Earth Seal, he won't be in danger for a while.

Ye Yun pondered for a moment and then asked.

"Since you're going to conduct research, why doesn't Senior Nangong go into seclusion in our ancient sacred land?"

"I think that place would be more undisturbed than where my senior just randomly picked a spot."

Just like with Fairy Yuxue last time, he took this opportunity to further strengthen the Ancient Holy Land.

However, how could Nangong Jiutian not know his little scheme?

"You little brat, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

Nangong Jiutian glanced at him and said quietly.

"You want me to be like that Yu Xue, a free deterrent for your Ancient Holy Land?"

"First, Senior Yuxue's arrangement wasn't exactly free, was it?"

Ye Yun shrugged and muttered a helpless complaint.

He then continued.

"Furthermore, what you want to do doesn't seem to conflict with my suggestion, does it?"

"It might even be of some help to you, so why not?"

These words were truly heartfelt.

Nangong Jiutian pondered for a moment and seemed to agree with the logic.

Then, she replied with her eyes slightly narrowed.

"Fine, I'll let you get the better deal this time."

Of course, the most important thing was Ye Yun's suggestion, which made her feel that it was valuable.

Otherwise, no matter how eloquently the other party speaks, she will not pay any attention to them.

"Alright, welcome, senior!"

Ye Yun's eyes lit up, and he spoke to him enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Nangong Jiutian raised an eyebrow and slowly said.

"Don't be too happy yet. You may agree, but if anything really happens, don't expect me to step in."

Even so, Ye Yun smiled with delight.

"No problem, having you there is enough!"

Now, many people have witnessed firsthand the strength of the "Senior Nangong" they spoke of.

If nothing unexpected happens, this news will soon spread throughout the entire continent.

Then everyone will know that such a powerful cultivator is stationed in the Ancient Holy Land.

With the addition of Senior Yu Xue, they are enough to deter the vast majority of petty villains.

"Alright, stop laughing."

Nangong Jiutian rolled his eyes at him, then flicked his finger, and the speed of the flying sword beneath his feet suddenly increased.

Caught off guard, Ye Yun was almost thrown off balance.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, he grabbed Nangong Jiutian in front of him and managed to steady himself.

However, when Ye Yun felt the soft warmth coming from his hand, he was immediately startled.

"Ah, Senior Nangong..."

Ye Yun froze for a moment, then looked up.

As expected, Nangong Jiutian was staring at him intently.

After a long pause, she finally uttered two words.

"Is it soft?"

Nangong Jiutian stared intently at Ye Yun, as if he wanted to glare him to death.

As for Ye Yun's expression, he looked a little embarrassed and cleared his throat.

"Ahem, I really didn't mean to, and besides, it's not my fault, it's all your fault, senior..."

Before he could finish speaking, he felt like he was being thrown out like trash.

That's right, Nangong Jiutian actually threw him off the flying sword.

And the speed was so fast that even Ye Yun himself was shocked; he was able to move at such a speed.

Because of the immense force, Ye Yun was powerless to resist and could only fall uncontrollably downwards.

"Senior, I was wrong!"

Above the sky, Ye Yun's screams echoed in all directions.

This was due to his strong will to survive.

At his speed, if he were to fall, he would likely be seriously injured, if not killed.

However, Nangong Jiutian ignored him.

Ye Yun watched helplessly as he got closer and closer to the ground.

In just one more breath, we will have an incredibly intimate encounter with Mother Earth.

"Oh no! No way!"

As the ground grew larger and larger, Ye Yun's heart was in his throat.

Just as he was about to strike the ground, a black mist swept by and pulled him up from the ground.

"You little rascal, still dare to be naughty?"

Still shaken, Ye Yun heard mocking voices beside him.

Looking up, I saw it was Nangong Jiutian.

Just at the last second, the other party saved him.

Clearly, this was a wake-up call for Ye Yun.

As for the effect, Ye Yun's legs were a little weak at this moment, and he could hardly stand up.

"Kid, do you know you were wrong?"

Nangong Jiutian looked at him and asked with a playful expression.

Although Ye Yun really wanted to send his regards to Nangong Jiutian's entire family at this moment.

But his survival instinct told him that this was an extremely suicidal act.

"I know I was wrong, senior!"

Ye Yun took a deep breath and swallowed.

Clearly, Ye Yun ultimately chose to follow his heart and apologized.

"That's more like it."

Nangong Jiutian nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he didn't forget to glare at Ye Yun.

"You'd better understand that I am now an Emperor-level expert, not some little girl you can tease at will."

"Ahem, I understand, senior."

Ye Yun gave an awkward smile, but secretly he was cursing in his heart.

This guy better not let himself have another chance later.

If he could pin her down on the bed, he would definitely make her... why are the flowers so red?

"Hey kid, what are you thinking about?"

Nangong Jiutian raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she could see right through his heart.

Ye Yunhu's body trembled, and he quickly explained.

"I was just thinking, I really feel so sorry for my senior this time."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jiutian scoffed.

"Do you even believe that yourself?"

After saying that, she shook her head.

"Fine, I can't be bothered with you."

In Nangong Jiutian's opinion, the other party couldn't do anything to him anyway.

At most, I'll just fantasize about it in my mind; it doesn't matter.

On the way back, Nangong Jiutian seemed to remember something and asked.

"By the way, kid, did that senior from the upper realm describe the basic situation of that world to you?"

Ye Yun, who was meditating nearby, nodded after hearing this.

"That senior told me something about the division of power in that world."

"What do you mean? Immortals, demons, and monsters stand in a tripartite balance."

"And also..."

In Ye Yun's view, there was nothing to hide about these basic settings.

And this is also an opportunity to compare with Nangong Jiutian.

After listening, Nangong Jiutian said thoughtfully.

"It seems she agrees with what we said."

"That's what she said to her senior too?"

Ye Yun asked curiously.

Nangong Jiutian responded.

"Yes, almost exactly the same."

This result prompted Ye Yun to complain.

"I'm starting to wonder if that senior was actually casting a wide net across many worlds similar to ours?"

They use a wide-net approach to find exceptionally talented individuals and then recruit them to their own faction.

Nangong Jiutian agreed with this.

"It's not impossible."

However, Ye Yun sighed.

"If that's the case, it would be rather boring."

This answer surprised Nangong Jiutian, who then asked with great interest.

"Oh? Why?"

Ye Yun shrugged and said calmly.

"I originally thought that the Upper Realm was some kind of peaceful paradise."

"The outcome now appears to be the same: the survival of the fittest, or even more intense."

It can be said that this upper realm was completely different from what he had imagined.

However, Nangong Jiutian gave a different answer to this matter.

"Really? I have the exact opposite opinion. I think this kind of upper realm is much more interesting."

Ye Yun paused for a moment, then asked curiously.

"No? What's so interesting about that?"

Nangong Jiutian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a wicked smile.

"I believe that some things are worth fighting for."

"The law of the jungle is the most interesting and timeless rule!"

"If it were truly a world where everyone is happy, what would be the point?"

"Only a certain level of competition can bring vitality to the world!"

From her perspective, this is typical genius thinking.

After all, with her talent, Nangong Jiutian could accomplish most things in the world if she wanted to.

As for those mediocre people without talent, they wouldn't even catch her eye...

"..."

Ye Yun remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed softly.

"Alright then, I hope that after you ascend, you will also be able to make a name for yourself in the Upper Realm."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jiutian smiled.

"No need to hope, it's certain!"
