Chapter 426: Seven colored scar

The beautiful lady never expected to be attacked so suddenly. However, she was a powerful figure nonetheless. Although she was shocked at the sudden attack, a purple colored magic staff appeared in her hand. The staff was emitting dark aura and was extremely sinister. A black halo burst out from the magic staff, which made a surprise attack on the purple colored lightning screen in front of her. Her surprise attack managed to open a passage and she rushed through the exit.

"Ximen Yu?" The beautiful lady exclaimed in surprise. Long Yi was the one and only lightning magician in this world. She had no doubts about this. Not to mention the fact that she already knew that Long Yi was the lucky fellow who obtained the Lightning God inheritance.

"This beauty has a good eye. You definitely deserve to be called the top personnel in the Dark Church." Long Yi smiled and he instantly flashed in front of this beautiful lady. With his ** gaze, he sized her up.

While Long Yi sized her up, this beautiful lady was doing the same to him. She didn't have any particular expression on her face, and it seemed as though the lightning screen around her was non-existent.

"Sure enough, you are a heroic youth. No wonder Lingr never forgot about you." The beautiful lady seemed to be satisfied with Long Yi's appearance. She appeared as though she was a mother-in-law observing her future son-in-law.

Without replying her, Long Yi stared straight at the beautiful lady. She was clearly telling him that she was Feng Ling's mother. This meant that Long Yi had to be respectful to her.

"I wonder what noble errand brought you to Mea Principality?" Long Yi faintly smiled but he compressed his spirit power slowly.

The smile on the beautiful lady's face stiffened and her expression became cold. Never had she expected that Long Yi would ignore her status like this.

"Mea Principality isn't a restricted area. Could it be that I have to report to your Ximen Clan before I can step foot into Mea Principality?" The beautiful lady retracted her fake smile and said with an icy expression.

"That's not it. I have no good opinion on both the Dark or Light church. However, I don't care about what any of you do. Unless you want to hurt the people I want to protect. In that case, I'll make their life worse than death… It doesn't matter who they are, I'll give them hell. " Long Yi proclaimed and his killing intent burst out of him. However, the smile on his face became even brighter. This strong contrast caused many people to feel a chill up their spine.

The beautiful lady's expression changed all of a sudden as she experienced Long Yi's killing intent. The sudden increase in pressure made her chest stuffy and she felt shortness of breath. The purple magic staff in her hand emitted a black light as it tried to resist the pressure coming from Long Yi.

"Pretty lady, how about returning to Mea Principality with me? You probably know Shui Linglong as well. Let's talk about the past together." The expression of Long Yi changed quickly and his killing intent instantly dissipated. It was replaced by a harmless smile and Long Yi looked like an innocent scholar.

Gritting her teeth, the beautiful lady questioned Long Yi, "Do you know who I am?"

"Aren't you a person from the Dark Church? Oh... You mean your other identities. For instance, mother of Feng Ling, mother of Shui Ruoyan, daughter-in-law who isn't acknowledged by Shui Linglong… Were you referring to these?" Long Yi rubbed his chin and said with a smile.

"Since you know about my other identities, why are you still so rude to me? Don't you know that I am your mother-in-law? Aren't you afraid that I don't hand over my daughter to you?" Although the beautiful lady seemed to be joking when she threatened him, her cold eyes were dreary and intimidating.

"Now, you don't have the final say..." Long Yi stopped speaking all of a sudden as the beautiful lady caused a split in his spiritual net. Boundless dark aura enveloped him in a flash.

"Dark Domain, f*ck." Long Yi cursed. Sending out seven colored magic douqi from his body, he attacked in all directions.

Rumble, several hundred big trees were blown up into broken bits under Long Yi's seven colored magic douqi. A soft groan was heard and a phantom shot out from the mess. Flying into the distance, the phantom looked like a shooting star.

When he saw that phantom, Long Yi instantly chased it down. After chasing her for a little while, he saw that that phantom was becoming dimmer and dimmer. Hitting his own head, Long Yi cursed himself for having a pig brain. He was actually deceived by a phantom. Ninth Heaven Dark Magic really deserves its reputation. The phantom was too similar to the real thing. Even the aura the phantom emitted was the same which made it difficult to discern whether it was real or not. Currently, the beautiful lady must have already fled to a faraway place. What a blunder!

When Long Yi returned to the location where the phantom first appeared, he was dejected. He failed to notice that roughly 50 meters away, dark mist began to gather. A graceful figure eventually appeared and although she was in a sorry state, she was fine enough to rain down curses on Long Yi. She was precisely the beautiful lady which disappeared a moment ago. She appeared to be in sore straits. Her black clothing was torn in many places, revealing her spotlessly white jade-like skin to the world.

"Ximen Yu, you are truly my good son-in-law." The beautiful lady gnashed her teeth and fury burned in her eyes. Her jade-like hand was covering her right chest and blood was flowing through the cracks of her fingers. The seven colored magic douqi Long Yi sent out was the result of combining seven of the attributed magic elements. The seven colored douqi was extremely powerful as they had mutual enhancement and inhibition abilities. If anyone were to be hit by the seven colored douqi, it would be very hard for them to recover within a short period of time.

The beautiful lady waved her hand and laid out a dark barrier. As she undid her clothes lapel, her towering right ** was exposed in the air. There was a finger-long cut on her breast, and blood was continuously flowing out. The wound looked terrifying, and it was dangerously close to hitting her vital spots.

The beautiful lady gritted her teeth and took out a black bead from inside her space ring. After looking at the black bead, she crushed it. Applying the black powder on her wound, it eventually stopped bleeding. After removing her hands, she was relieved that the bleeding stopped. However, when she peeled off the black scab which formed above the wound, a scar which was seven colored could be seen.

"Ximen Yu, don't let me catch you." Looking at the scar on her right chest, the beautiful lady clenched her hands into a fist, and gnashing her teeth, she hoped that she could tear Long Yi into a thousand pieces. She knew that this scar might never disappear.

......

Shui Ruoyan slowly walked towards the east gate of Mea Principality. Her gaze was unfocused, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Thump, Shui Ruoyan suddenly screamed in pain as she felt a sharp pain in her nose. Due to the pain, tears welled up in her eyes.

Shui Ruoyan covered her nose. She thought that she was having a streak of bad luck due to the recent events in her life. She actually bumped into a tree while walking. Even if she was absent-minded in the past, she would have dodged any obstacles ahead of her. Bumping into a tree like this only signified how distracted she was. Looking up, she wanted to freeze this tree into an ice sculpture since it couldn't tell good from bad. Instead of a tree, she saw a completely different sight. Her charming body trembled from head to toe as she stared at the person standing before her. She had her mouth and eyes wide open in disbelief and she stared blankly at the person standing in front of her for quite some time. There was her man who was looking at her with a familiar, yet cheeky smile in front of her.

"Paying attention to their surroundings is an important trait of a noble lady. Teacher Shui Ruoyan." Long Yi smirked and reached out his hand to close Shui Ruoyan's open mouth.

Reaching out to grab the hand which was placed on her mouth, Shuo Ruoyan felt Long Yi's warmth coming from the palms of his hand. Letting out a scream, she jumped into Long Yi's bosom. Opening her mouth, she bit down onto Long Yi's shoulders when he was least expecting it.

"Ah... little wildcat, is your ** itching?" Long Yi removed the internal energy protecting his body. He wanted to cry but had no tears. His sturdy body had various kind of teeth marks all over and all of them were the 'I was here' mark left behind by different women.

After a good while, Shui Ruoyan loosened her jaws. When she saw Long Yi's bitter smile, she raised her head and pecked him on his lips. In a flash, she used Water Healing Magic on Long Yi's wound.

"You deserved it! It's your fault for pretending to be a tree. You caused me to bump into you! It was so painful. Look, I still have a red nose." Shui Ruoyan's tone was a lot gentler as she off her injured nose to Long Yi.

Giving Shui Ruoyan a gentle pinch on the face, Long Yi laughed, "How was it intentional? I was standing here for a long time waiting for you to come running to me! Who would have thought that you would willingly walk into me? How can you even blame me?"

Shui Ruoyan snorted in dissatisfaction as she complained, "Humph, if you hadn't hidden your aura, how could I not notice your arrival?"

A smile crept up Long Yi's face as he was too lazy to argue with this girl. Not to mention the fact that he did it intentionally.

"You… Don't you smirk in front of me! You're so hateful." Shui Ruoyan angrily pouted as her beautiful face reddened. Long Yi's smile made her feel embarrassed and happy at the same time. Moreover, there was a feeling of longing in her heart. However, she had no idea what she was longing for.

Reaching out his hand, Long Yi raised Shui Ruoyan's chin upwards. Looking up and down, Long Yi sized up Shui Ruoyan's beautiful face. It was peerlessly graceful, and there was a type of elegance all noble woman possessed. Two years was neither too long nor too short, but it was enough to open up an introverted woman.

"Teacher Shui Ruoyan, you are becoming more and more beautiful." Long Yi gently caressed her chin and the voice he used to address Shui Ruoyan became deeper.

"Student Long Yi, are you thinking about hitting your teacher again?" Shui Ruoyan's beautiful face became red. However, she didn't struggle free as she endured Long Yi's teasings. Deep in her heart, she felt a strange feeling towards Long Yi. With a bold statement, she welcomed Long Yi's unbridled gaze. Addressing each other as student and teacher stimulated her. It seemed as though she was violating some kind of moral and ethics code.

"I want..." Long Yi muttered and his finger slid down Shui Ruoyan's chin. As his finger slid further downwards, he eventually reached her plump mountains. It remained at the top of her rounded breasts and the only thing separating the two of them was Shui Ruoyan's water magic robe. He poked her with just enough strength to make her feel **

"Bad student." The charming body of Shui Ruoyan trembled and her eyes became hazy as she looked at Long Yi.

Long Yi was the first to lose the battle as he failed to endure it any longer. He hugged Shui Ruoyan and sealed her lips with his own without any hesitation.

There was no lack of tenderness in this intense kissing session. The more they kissed, the hotter it got. Those wandering devil's claw and that scalding hot, flexible tongue made Shui Ruoyan's consciousness sink into the abyss. She felt as if she was in a fairyland surrounded by white clouds and singing birds. She was completely intoxicated in this feeling.

No one knew when, but Long Yi's devil's claw had already lifted the lower hem of her gown. From the waist of her pants, he directly stroked that satiny, highest grade, fine-jade pert buttocks belonging to Shui Ruoyan.

"No... Don't..." Shui Ruoyan suddenly woke up from her ethereal state, as she felt Long Yi's devil's claw intruding into her most intimate area. It was making its advance towards her most private forbidden area.

"What do you mean by 'don't'?" Long Yi asked in a hoarse voice as his finger teased that private part which was already filled with spring syrup.

Shui Ruoyan moaned and she felt as though her body was burning. She weakly melted into Long Yi's bosom and she bit her lower lip. With a deep moan, she breathed into Long Yi's ear, "Not here…"

Chapter 427: Feast under the heaven and a night visit to the lady's chamber of the female Swords Saint

"I think it's good here. It's a feast under the heaven with the moon and stars to keep us company. Not to mention the fact that we are the only two people in here… There are no other people around us." Long Yi whispered in his hoarse voice. While he was talking, his devil's claw continued to move about Shui Ruoyan's body. He teased Shui Ruoyan's innermost **.

Shui Ruoyan raised her head and her hazy eyes stared into the vast starry sky. As she felt a gentle breeze on her face, a feeling of impulsive welled up in her heart. Perhaps, this wasn't a bad place after all.

"Will… Will someone come over?" Shui Ruoyan stopped Long Yi's hand which was moving around between her legs. With a rosy colored face, Shui Ruoyan whispered into Long Yi's ear in a mosquito-like voice.

"Don't worry, I have already laid out a barrier. You won't run away this time will you?" As he spoke, Long Yi's hand didn't stop moving. He searched for the red bean in the midst of Shui Ruoyan's jungle. Gently pressing downwards, he gave her a cheeky smile. In the past, they had many experiences in the Illusory Forest. This girl had been teasing him all the while, and at the critical moment, she would always run away. Long Yi would always feel extremely frustrated and miserable. This time, Long Yi made up his mind. He would be eating her up no matter what.

Shui Ruoyan was breathless and she rolled her charming eyes. She was already a piece of meat on the chopping board. What other choice did she have? Also, she turned a blind eye and deaf ear to her other options. In fact, she should have already given this virgin body to him. The only reason she hasn't done so was due to fate. Whenever they wanted to do it, there would be some reason for them to stop.

"Teacher Shui Ruoyan, tell me, will you run away again this time?" Long Yi lightly blew into Shui Ruoyan's ear. With his hands wriggling about her **, Shui Ruoyan started to feel as though she was **. When the tide was about to arrive, Shui Ruoyan's charming body trembled. She hugged Long Yi's waist as a moan escaped her lips.

"Run... Who wants to run? Ah..., bad student!" Shui Ruoyan's chest rose and fell as she bit her lower lip. She drew strength from an unknown force, and she pushed Long Yi down towards the ground. She rained kisses on Long Yi's face and neck as she took deep breaths. Faint ** fragrance instantly filled the air.

Romantic air lingered in the atmosphere and two shining white bodies entangled under the bright starlight. With a single collision, the heart and body of the couple became one. There was no longer any separation between them.

** gradually dispersed. It was replaced by thick and tender affection. Currently, Shui Ruoyan's skin had a layer of enchanting rosy gloss covering it. Along with several beads of sparkling and crystal clear sweat, she seemed extremely charming.

Long Yi held onto Shui Ruoyan and his hand remained on one of her plump breasts. However, he was thinking about the beautiful lady in his heart. Should he ask Shui Ruoyan about the beautiful lady? According to his knowledge, that beautiful lady definitely had bad intentions when she sought out Shui Ruoyan. What exactly does she want to do?

"Long Yi, did you know? I saw my mother." Suddenly, Shui Ruoyan slightly propped up her body and happily said. Now that her beloved man was at her side, coupled with the fact that she saw her mother, how could she not be happy?

"Is that so? How is your mother doing? When can I pay an official visit to her?" Long Yi muttered in a low voice and a smile eventually appeared on his face.

"When the opportunity arises, I'll let you know! She has already left for today. Anyway, let me tell you something..." Shui Ruoyan nestled in Long Yi's bosom as she started telling him a story. She told him about how her parents were people from the Dark Church. Although she didn't want to tell anyone else the news about how her parents were from the Dark Church, she had no reservations towards Long Yi. She wanted to tell him about everything as she had already viewed him as her other half. However, she still kept her promise to her mother. She didn't speak about the matters which she promised her mother not to tell.

"So that's how it is... Your Grandmother probably opposed your parents due to the fact that your mother was from the Dark Church." After listening carefully, Long Yi appeared to have come to a conclusion. In the end, Long Yi didn't hear about the things he was most curious about. What exactly did that beautiful lady say? What exactly did she want to use Shui Ruoyan for?

"Long Yi, I have a younger sister! I hope that I can meet her soon… I'll really love her and never hurt her." Shui Ruoyan didn't notice Long Yi's pensive expression as she was busy celebrating.

"Is that so? Your younger sister would definitely be as kind-hearted, beautiful, and cute. Just like you." Long Yi answered in a daze.

"No, she is definitely more beautiful, cuter, and more kind-hearted than me... Long Yi, what are you thinking?" Shui Ruoyan finally noticed that something was wrong with Long Yi. She couldn't help but ask with concern.

Long Yi suddenly turned over and pressed Shui Ruoyan down. Looking straight into her beautiful eyes, he asked, "Did your mother only come to see you this time?"

Shui Ruoyan was startled mumbled which evading Long Yi's gaze, "Mother also taught me about the Ninth Heaven Dark Magic from the Dark Church."

"Did she say anything else? For instance, did she instruct you to do something?" Long Yi continued his interrogation.

Shui Ruoyan appeared as if she was struggling with herself. After hesitating for a long time, she shook her head. "No."

Long Yi looked at Shui Ruoyan for some time and his face revealed a disappointed expression. Leaning to the other side, he no longer spoke.

Shui Ruoyan gritted her teeth. She knew that Long Yi must have heard or seen something. However...

"Long Yi, I'm sorry. My mother did indeed instruct me to do something. However, she made me promise not to tell anyone else. Don't be like this." Shui Ruoyan sat up and said with a coquettish tone. She lightly pushed Long Yi, and a pair of sexy bunnies on her chest swayed due to her actions. This looked extremely alluring.

Long Yi sighed softly. He knew that the beautiful lady had bad intentions, but Shui Ruoyan certainly didn't think so. Otherwise, she would have told him about it.

"I know, you don't have to force yourself to speak." Long Yi took a deep breath and no longer thought about it.

Shui Ruoyan examined Long Yi's expression for a long while. Only after seeing that he wasn't dwelling on the matter anymore, she relaxed.

"By the way, your grandmother Shui Linglong doesn't seem to be at the Mea Holy Magic Academy." Long Yi reached out his hands and grabbed those swaying ** before his eyes. As he gave it a light pinch, Shui Ruoyan moaned out loud.

Raising her hands, Shui Ruoyan grabbed onto Long Yi's hand before they could do any more naughty things. After ensuring that Long Yi wasn't going to keep teasing her, she explained, "Grandmother is in seclusion, and I don't know when she will she will leave seclusion. By the way, the war against the Proud Moon Empire has yet to end. How long do you intend to stay here?"

"I might leave right after this." Long Yi told her his true thoughts after some consideration. It seemed like that beautiful lady came to look for Shui Ruoyan in Shui Linglong's absence. Otherwise, it was impossible for Shui Linglong to not notice her arrival.

Shui Ruoyan listlessly responded. She was clearly reluctant for Long Yi to leave. She naturally wanted Long Yi to stay here at Mea Principality for a period of time. If it wasn't for her mother's instructions, she would have wanted to follow Long Yi out of Mea Principality this time.

The two people became silent for a moment while watching the bright stars.

All of a sudden, Shui Ruoyan turned over and pressed down on Long Yi with her sexy body. Staring into his eyes with her beautiful pupils, her entire face flushed red.

"You… What do you want to do?" Long Yi was startled. Before long, Long Yi acted like a frightened kid and asked her about her intentions.

"Don't you know what I want to do? Today, we, a single man and a single woman, are here in this desolate field. What do you think I want to do?" Shui Ruoyan used her jade-like finger to raise Long Yi's chin as she said with a cheeky smile on her face. It was obvious that she was mimicking Long Yi's cheeky smile when she teased him. At this very moment, the amorous feelings emitted by Shui Ruoyan instantly made Long Yi lose his spirit.

Seeing as Long Yi had lost his spirit, Shui Ruoyan became proud of herself. Enduring the burning feeling on her face, her little hand moved towards Long Yi's legs. Reaching in between Long Yi's legs, she grabbed his hot rod. Since her sweetheart was leaving so soon, she didn't want to waste any time. She completely forgot about how she had lost her virginity moments ago as she endured Long Yi's strong pounding.

As he was attacked again, Long Yi's body trembled. However, his flame of lust immediately re-ignited. This girl was really playing with fire here. It was truly stimulating for Long Yi…

Between their panting breaths, their ** was ignited. Within the next second, intoxicated moans resounded in the air. The moans lasted for a long, long time.

...........

Long Yi carried the limp Shui Ruoyan in his arms as he brought her back to her residence. Shui Ruoyan had exhausted all her energy in their ** As a result of their vigorous night, she was completely burned out. She fell asleep as she leaned onto Long Yi. She seemed as though she lacked the energy to lift even a finger…

Long Yi gently placed Shui Ruoyan on her bed and he caressed her beautiful face while sighing softly. Although he said that he didn't have anything against the Dark Church, he would thoroughly look down on the Dark Church if that beautiful lady used Shui Ruoyan to achieve their goals. In any case, Long Yi would not allow Shui Ruoyan to be used by the Dark Church. However, he was about to leave and Shui Ruoyan wasn't able to go together with him. This caused Long Yi to become restless as he didn't know what would happen to her after he leaves.

Perhaps... Long Yi suddenly thought of a person. Looking at Shui Ruoyan who was sound asleep for the last time, Long Yi stood up and disappeared from her room.

It was still dark and dawn had yet to arrive. A shadow suddenly appeared under a big tree in front of the girls' dormitory in the Mea Holy Magic Academy. The shadow looked towards the dormitory as he slowly made his way over.

The shadow was obviously Long Yi. The person he thought of just now in Shui Ruoyan's room was naturally the mysterious Aunt Ou. Up till now, Long Yi was unable to figure out her identity.

Concealing his aura, Long Yi drifted towards the guard room like a ghost. There was no barrier, so Long Yi secretly opened the door and entered without making a sound.

With Long Yi's current strength, he could deal with a Swords Saint easily. However, his intuition told him that Aunt Ou had already surpassed the Swords Saint realm. She might have even stepped into the Swords God realm. This time, Long Yi wanted to try a sneak attack on her to see whether sneak attacks would work on this mysterious Aunt Ou.

"Eh, where is she?" Long Yi pushed open the door of the bedroom. He was startled as there wasn't a single soul in the room.

When Long Yi was still feeling shocked, a chilling cold air appeared at his neck. Long Yi instantly raised his guard and he left behind a series of afterimages as he arrived before the bedside. In the place where he was standing a moment ago, a fist-sized space vortex appeared. If he hadn't dodged, his neck might have been twisted into mincemeat.

"Ximen Clan's boy, are you looking for me?" A graceful figure slowly appeared before his eyes. A familiar and peculiar voice resounded in Long Yi's ears. He found the voice strangely charming.

Chapter 428: Not your biological sister

The shape slowly condensed, revealing an elegant face with jet-black hair hanging down her shoulders. In an instant, a delicate fragrance spread all over the room.

Aunt Ou who wore a purple colored gown smiled at Long Yi. She held a long sword in her hand, and it glimmered with pallid light as she pointed it at the ground.

"Long time no see, big sister. You are still as elegant as before." Long Yi laughed as he greeted her. Under Aunt Ou's attentive gaze, Long Yi felt uneasy and his speech was rather unnatural.

"Why did you sneak into here?" Aunt Ou retracted her sword. Pulling a chair, she sat down and started to question Long Yi.

Long Yi smiled as he mirrored her actions. Pulling a chair, he sat down in front of her. Only after sitting down, Long Yi replied, "This younger brother doesn't have any bad intentions. Although I arrived at Mea Principality two days ago, I never had the time to meet you. Since I'm leaving tomorrow, I had to meet you now. If I didn't come today, there would be absolutely no change to meet you any longer."

Aunt Ou looked at Long Yi with a profound smile and said with indifference, "If you have something to say, let's talk in the rear mountains. This little house of mine can't house a Great God like you after all."

"Who is the Great God? At best, I can be said to be a Demigod." Long Yi smiled and quickly refuted her claim. To be precise, Long Yi couldn't even be considered a Demigod. He was unable to wear a single piece of the Lightning God's armor.

Aunt Ou didn't feel like arguing with Long Yi. In a flash, she left the room and flew towards the rear mountain.

In the rear mountain, the wind was gently blowing. It made the lower hem of Aunt Ou's clothing sway slightly. Just by looking at her back view, many men in the world would not be able to escape from her perfect and mystical temperament. However, the passage of time was ruthless. With the layer of marks left behind by the passage of time on her beautiful face, there were fewer men in the world who would fall in love with her.

Aunt Ou turned around and saw that Long Yi was staring at her with a blank expression on his face. He was standing only a few steps behind her and she almost bumped into him.

"What are you looking at? Does this old woman still have any charm left in her?" Aunt Ou smiled thinly and said. Now, common matters wouldn't be able to cause waves to rise in her heart anymore. After experiencing great hardships throughout her life, her mind was extremely mature.

"How can anyone call big sister old? You are considered mature, not old. You have a charm which would only appear after experiencing many storms in life." Long Yi said with a smile.

Aunt Ou was startled at first. Unable to control her laughter anymore, she chuckled, "You are just a child, why are you speaking as though you are some kind of old man? The things you say are rather sophisticated for your age. If there was a stranger here, they might think that you are as old as me."

As the corners of his lips crept upwards, Long Yi changed the expression on his face. He pretended to be an old and experienced person. After all, he had the experience of two lives. Not to mention the fact that both of his lives were extremely brilliant compared to the lives of others. Even if he added the experience of a hundred people, it might be lesser than what Long Yi experienced throughout his life. As such, his mentality was different from others. However, Long Yi would often hide his true self by acting like another person.

"Well, don't pretend to be mature. Start talking, why did you come looking for me?" Female Swords Saint said.

Long Yi nodded his head and with a cheeky smile on his face, he stated his true intentions, "This time, I came to request a matter from big sister."

"What matter?" Female Swords Saint raised her eyebrows in curiosity.

Organizing his thoughts, Long Yi told Aunt Ou everything about Shui Ruoyan. It included the matter of the beautiful lady and his concerns. He added his suspicions and worries in his story.

"Then, how do you want me to help you?" Female Swords Saint asked.

"I want you to pay attention to Shui Ruoyan's every move. Sometimes, she might do things which might seem dubious. If there is anything unusual, I hope that big sister can help her out." Long Yi sincerely requested.

Aunt Ou smiled warmly and said, "It is not impossible to agree to your request. However, I have a condition."

"What condition? If you want me to offer s*x and so on, I will never agree." Long Yi jumped back and said with a cheeky smile as he hugged his chest with his hands.

Aunt Ou glared at Long Yi and a flash of golden douqi suddenly brushed past Long Yi's face. The speed of the golden douqi was as quick as lightning, and it left a thin red mark on Long Yi's face.

Long Yi didn't take offense to her actions. With a single circulation of true qi, that red mark on his face instantly disappeared without a trace. Staring at Aunt Ou, he chuckled, "Just as I thought. You were hiding your power all along. You have already reached the Swords God realm long ago."

Aunt Ou declined to comment and threatened Long Yi instead. "If you continue with your nonsense, I'll disfigure your face. I want to see how you will seduce girls with your disfigured face."

"Big sister, you don't know about this, but even if I was an ugly person, beauties would still cry, shout out loud, and come over to me in submission. This is called a man's charm. Appearance has nothing to do with it." Long Yi stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Aunt Ou as he said in confidence.

Aunt Ou, who Long Yi had been addressing as Female Swords Saint, should be addressed as Female Swords God now. She remained silent towards Long Yi's banter. She was never able to see through this kid. He hid too deeply and he changed his behavior extremely quickly. She simply had no way to fathom him.

"I can help you keep an eye on Shui Ruoyan. However, my condition is for you to make Ximen Wuhen happy." Aunt Ou looked straight into Long Yi's eyes and gave her condition. Looking into Aunt Ou's eyes, Long Yi was able to see that her pupils were sharp and jet black.

Without any fear, Long Yi stared straight into her eyes. Then with a trace of a smile on his lips, he said, "I don't understand what you mean. Wuhen is my little sister, making her happy is my responsibility."

"I said 'love', do you understand what I mean?" Aunt Ou faintly replied.

Long Yi was stunned as if someone hit the back of his head with an iron rod. Only after a long time, Long Yi came back to his senses. He pointed at Aunt Ou as he cursed, "You are insane, you pervert! Wuhen's love doesn't have anything to do with me, it is her future husband's responsibility."

"As long as you say the word, her happiness would be your responsibility." Aunt Ou stared at Long Yi with her keen, sparkling eyes and said.

Long Yi raised his hand but he wasn't able to do anything. He eventually lowered his hand as he took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He gave Aunt Ou a strange stare as he said, "You are truly insane. I always wondered why my grandfather didn't want you, but you are basically a lunatic. Don't tell me that you don't know that doing 'that' between brother and sister is called **?"

When Long Yi mentioned his grandfather, Aunt Ou's expression changed a few times. However, Long Yi wasn't able to make out the change in her expression as it was too unpredictable. She looked as though she wanted to flip out, but she eventually calmed down. She started her explanation with a sigh, "I am not insane. Ximen Wuhen is simply not your sister, so you don't have to worry about anything."

Long Yi was truly stunned this time. He gave Aunt Ou a blank stare for a while as that sentence, 'Ximen Wuhen is simply not your sister' repeatedly resounded in his head.

"You… You are saying that Ximen Wuhen isn't my sister? That is nonsense! Although we were not born from the same mother, our father is the same. Could it be that my father doesn't know about this?" Long Yi was agitated and he started shouting. After arriving at this world, it was not easy to accept the fact that he had a younger sister. He had also sincerely cherished Ximen Wuhen as a biological sister. However, someone told him that Ximen Wuhen wasn't his sister after such a long time. Long Yi was unable to keep his emotions in check as waves after waves rose in his heart.

"That's right. He has no idea about this." Aunt Ou faintly answered Long Yi. Leaning to one side, she knitted her brows. Now, she was filled with deep sadness and helplessness.

Long Yi suppressed the agitation in his heart. Suddenly, he felt as though this was ridiculous. With a feeling of amusement, he asked, "If my father doesn't know about this, how would you know? Could it be that you knew about this matter?"

"Of course. In this world, only your grandfather and I knew about this. Even Wuhen's parents have no idea." Aunt Ou's voice trembled and she sighed. She appeared extremely lonely.

Giving Aunt Ou a blank stare, he started to mutter to himself. "Are you insane or am I insane?"

"Do you think I am lying to you?" Aunt Ou asked.

"Aren't you?" Long Yi sneered. However, beneath the surface, there was chaos in his heart. He knew that Aunt Ou definitely wouldn't say something without thinking about it first.

"I don't need to deceive you. Since you are so capable, you should have a way to see if she is your true sister or not." Aunt Ou eventually explained to Long Yi.

Long Yi became silent. As the backbone of the Dragon (Long) Organization in his previous life, he indeed possessed a method to discern if two people had blood relations with each other.

"After finding out the truth, I'll modify your condition. However, it doesn't matter what the end result is. I will do my best to make Wuhen happy." A stiff smile appeared on Long Yi's face.

"Okay, I have nothing against that." Seeing Long Yi's reluctant expression, Aunt Ou sighed and agreed with his condition.

Long Yi's thoughts were in a mess. Turning around to leave, Long Yi took two steps before turning back. He opened his mouth as though he wanted to ask something, but no sound came out of it.

"You want to ask about Ximen Wuhen's relationship with me? I can only tell you that she is not the bloodline of your Ximen Clan. As for other things, I have no comments."

Aunt Ou naturally knew what Long Yi wanted to ask. As such, she took the initiative to tell him before he asked his question.

Long Yi sighed as he shrugged his shoulder. In a flash, he flew away.

Currently, the dark night had begun to gradually fade away. The grey light of dawn could be seen stretching across the land.

When Long Yi approached the meadow, he was shocked to see that the four women didn't return to the inn. Instead, they pitched a tent on the soft grass.

When he saw that they were all sleeping together, a complicated expression rose in his heart. If this was before Aunt Ou gave him the shocking news, he would have jumped into the middle of them. He would enjoy himself by holding his beauties in both his hands. However, Long Yi no longer had the feeling to think about such things. He walked back and forth in front of the tent and muttered while shaking his head, "Could it be that Wuhen is not my biological sister?"

All of a sudden, the curtain of the tent was lifted up. Wushuang walked out of the tent as she stretched her body. She looked refreshed and Long Yi knew that she was meditating the whole night.

"Long Yi, what happened? Why are you restless like this?" When she saw Long Yi's expression, Wushuang couldn't help but ask.

Long Yi waved his hand as he stood still for a moment. He rushed into the tent all of a sudden, giving Wushuang a good shock. Wushuang felt something was wrong, so she followed after him. The moment she entered the tent, she could see that Long Yi was staring at Ximen Wuhen with a complicated expression on his face. Since she was sound asleep, Wushuang had no idea what Long Yi was thinking.

"Shuang'er, do you think me and Ximen Wuhen resemble each other?" Long Yi turned around and whispered softly.

Wushuang was surprised at his sudden question. After thinking for a moment, she shook her head, "Nope, you two don't resemble each other in the slightest. No matter how I look at it, your features don't match each other."

Long Yi nodded his head and his hand quickly poked the girls who were sleeping soundly.

Chapter 429: Cruel and ruthless

Following the few pokes from Long Yi, the three women who were sound asleep lost their consciousness.

"Long Yi, what are you doing?" Wushuang looked at Long Yi with shock written all over her face. She realized that there was something strange going on. Especially when she looked at him now, he looked even more abnormal.

Turning his head, Long Yi placed his index finger on his mouth. He signaled for Wushuang to keep quiet. With a soft sigh, Long Yi grabbed Ximen Wuhen's little hand. Using an unknown move, a drop of bright red blood appeared on Ximen Wuhen's middle finger.

Under Long Yi's careful control, the drop of blood floated in the air in front of him. Looking at that drop of blood, Long Yi walked out of the tent.

By the time Wushuang left the tent, Long Yi had already set up an opaque barrier outside. As a result, she didn't know what Long Yi was doing inside the barrier.

"What in the world is going on?" Wushuang muttered. This was the first time she had seen Long Yi act like this. She couldn't help but worry about Long Yi.

Currently, inside the barrier, Long Yi stared blankly at two small porcelain bottles with liquid inside them. In of the bottle, the liquid was scarlet red in color and in the other bottle, the liquid was deep blue.

"It's true, Wuhen truly isn't my biological sister." Long Yi sighed and there was a sense of loss in his heart. However, anger started to brew in Long Yi's heart.

This was an extremely serious matter. In fact, his father, Ximen Nu, had no idea that Ximen Wuhen wasn't his daughter. She was actually the daughter of someone else. Long Yi's anger was really boiling over right now. In his mind, he thought, if his own women were to get pregnant with another guy's child, he would feel enraged. However, Long Yi thought about how Aunt Ou said that his grandfather was involved in this matter. Long Yi's mind spun as he thought about what Aunt Ou actually meant. Could it be that his grandfather became senile after disappearing for so many years? He actually colluded with others to make his son wear a green hat. This gave Long Yi the urge to curse out loud.

The seething emotions inside Long Yi slowly calmed down after a while. Anyway, this was already something which could not be changed. In any case, Ximen Wuhen was the innocent party here. No matter what happened, Long Yi was not going to implicate her in any of this.

After looking at the problem from different angles, Long Yi settled down his state of mind. He decided to hide this fact, albeit temporarily. This was because of the current situation on the Blue Waves Continent and the situation in the Ximen Clan. In the Ximen Clan, the wind and waves were currently at its highest. The situation on the Blue Waves Continent was also at its critical juncture. If Long Yi revealed the news about how Ximen Wuhen wasn't his sister right now, it would only bring about disadvantages to the Ximen Clan.

Dispelling the barrier, Long Yi walked out with a smile on his face. It was the usual expression he had as he didn't want to give Wushuang a reason to worry.

"Long Yi..." Seeing as Long Yi left the barrier, Wushuang instantly called out to him. She took two steps forward and stood right in front of Long Yi.

"I am fine." Long Yi smiled and patted the shoulder of Wushuang. In a serious voice, he added, "Suang'er, I don't want anyone else to know about what happened earlier. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Wushuang nodded her head. Despite the suspicion in her heart, she would act as if nothing happened. It was what Long Yi wanted after all.

"Thank you for understanding." Long Yi kissed the soft and delicate lips on Wushuang's face.

.........…

Violent Dragon Empire, Soaring Dragon City.

Under the golden light of the sun, the Ximen Residence appeared radiant and imposing in the middle of the city. The guards who stood on the two sides of the big scarlet gate looked ferocious with their helmet and shining armor. Just by looking at them, people would be able to know that they were veterans who had survived bloody battles on the battlefields.

As usual, Ximen Nu was sitting upright behind his spacious desk. In front of him were stacks of intelligence reports, and he was slowly browsing through them. The intelligence reports consisted of reports about the situation inside Soaring Dragon City and reports about the other cities in the Blue Waves Continent.

While was deep in his thought, Dongfang Wan knocked on the door. Carrying a cup of tea, she entered the room. She gently placed the cup of tea in front of Ximen Nu before silently moving behind him. Picking up a little fan, she started to fan Ximen Nu who was busy reading the intelligence reports.

Ximen Nu didn't raise his head. His head remained lowered as he read all of the intelligence reports on the table. He used a brush to outline the most important parts of the report. Currently, Ximen Nu looked older compared to before. His head seemed to be covered in white hair, but his mighty momentum didn't diminish in the slightest.

After a good while, Ximen Nu stood up and stretched his body. Looking towards his wife, a smile appeared on his face.

"My husband, drink this cup of herbal tea. Recently, the weather has been extremely abnormal. Summer has yet to come, but the weather is already so hot." Dongfang Wan picked up the cup of tea from the desk and handed it over to Ximen Nu.

"It is certainly strange. Does the Blue Waves Continent want to flip the heaven over this year?" Ximen Nu took the teacup from Dongfang Wan's hands as he slowly sipped on it. The herbal tea had been processed more than ten times by Dongfang Wan, and it was frozen. With a single sip of the tea, the heat inside Ximen Nu's body disappeared and his gloomy heart started to relax.

Dongfang Wan wisely smiled but didn't say much. As the eldest daughter of the Dongfang Clan, her political sensitivity and view of the overall situation couldn't be compared to a normal person. If she was unwilling to be a good wife and loving mother in front of Ximen Nu, she could have shaken the world with her literary talent. Regardless of whether it was the military or government, her name would be extremely well known. However, she chose to be a nameless wife standing behind her successful husband.

"Wan'er, Is General Ye and the others here??" The eyes of Ximen Nu shone as he stroked his grey beard.

"They are currently waiting in the hall. Does husband want to go and meet them now?" Dongfang Wan replied.

"Of course I want to go." Ximen Nu smirked. His crafty smile greatly resembled the smile Long Yi always had on his face. As the saying goes, like father, like son. Or in this case, like son, like father.

Ximen Nu stepped into the hall with a dignified expression. The three people who were in the hall stood up and gave him a salutation regardless of whether they were wearing a military uniform or a civil official dress.

"This time, I called everyone here to discuss a matter. All of you can sit down." Ximen Nu walked over to the master chair in the hall with large strides. With an imposing aura, he took his seat.

"Patriarch, why are there only three of us?" An old man wearing the civil official dress belonging to the Violent Dragon Empire asked in confusion. In the past, when there were major issues to discuss, Ximen Nu would call all of his trusted subordinates. However, there were only three of them this time.

"Yes, I've called the three of you here today as you are the ones I trust the most. Especially since all three of you have been serving me for such a long time." Ximen Nu said. When he saw the trace of happiness on their faces, a trace of killing intent appeared in his heart.

"Recently, Soaring Dragon City has been plunged into chaos. I think that all three of you should know about this. After reaching the critical juncture to attack the Proud Moon Empire, that old fox Long Zhan revealed some of his moves. In this one month, he laid out many traps which were aimed at us. Fortunately, we were able to avert them and avoid disaster. We were even able to launch our own counterattacks against him. Although we were unable to damage his bones, out attacks should make him feel some pain." Ximen Nu looked at three people below him as he said with a pleasant smile. He appeared to be delighted by the performance of the three of them.

"That is all because patriarch grasped the key points to the enemy's weakness. Every time Long Zhan arranged a trap, the patriarch was able to see through it. This subordinate truly admires you." Ye Wufeng said while looking at Ximen Nu with worship in his eyes.

Ximen Nu looked at Ye Wufeng. He was once Ximen Nu's trusted confidant. However, he was unaware that he was already excluded from the Ximen Clan's core. Everything was due to his wife. Who asked his wife to develop s*xual relations with the Crown Prince, Long Ying. This was enough reason for the cruel and ruthless Ximen Nu to completely lose his heart towards Ye Wufeng.

Ximen Clan made several hundred years of preparations. They absolutely couldn't tolerate any mishaps or errors. They were definitely not jeopardizing the entire Ximen Clan and its vassals. Ximen Nu didn't dare to gamble with his clan on the line. As such, he steeled his heart.

"I cannot take credit for evading Long Zhan's traps. We managed to avoid Long Zhan's traps because of our spies. As a result, I know about their movements completely. Now, I would like to ask, how will Long Zhan be able to fight against us?" Ximen Nu stroked his beard and asked after laughing heartily. However, his eyes were narrowed as he stared at the three of them.

Both of the civil officials looked happy and flattered. According to them, Ximen Nu absolutely trusted them as he revealed such important secrets in their presence. There was no reason not to be happy.

However, Ye Wufeng's expression became tense and an explosion happened in his brain. With the smile on his face stiffening, his limbs became ice-cold.

After some time, Ximen Nu gave them the permission to leave, However, Ye Wufeng stayed back in the hall as he stared at Ximen Nu.

"General Ye, do you have something to say?" Ximen Nu frowned. He knew that Ye Wufeng was sharp and should have deduced something from Ximen Nu's speech.

Bang, Ye Wufeng knelt down and prostrated on the ground. In a trembling voice, he pleaded, "Forgive me, patriarch, this Wufeng isn't clear on his mistakes. I request for the patriarch to make it clear." Ye Wufeng was a very intelligent person. His clan had always been stubbornly loyal to the Ximen Clan since generations ago. Not to mention the fact that he had grown up with Ximen Nu. Ximen Nu's killing intent couldn't escape his perception. Besides, he knew that Ximen Nu would never speak about having spies by Long Zhan's side. He knew that it was an impossible matter. As such, he wasn't the least bit happy when Ximen Nu told them about the spies. Rather, he trembled in despair.

Ximen Nu stared at Ye Wufeng who was kneeling in front of him with an ice-cold gaze. With an indifferent expression he said, "Wufeng, I trust you that you will never betray me. However, you made a mistake. You have married the wrong woman. Your wife is committing adultery with Crown Prince Long Ying, and she is currently his spy. You shouldn't know about this matter yet, right?"

Another explosion occurred in Ye Wufeng's head and his mind became a blank space. The wife who he was immensely proud of was the one who betrayed him. He never doubted the words of Ximen Nu. Since Ximen Nu had said that his wife betrayed him, he was certain that his wife betrayed him.

"Wufeng, I cannot lose..." Ximen Nu said to Ye Wufeng.

Ye Wufeng trembled. When he looked up, his expression was already firm. In a calm voice, he said, "Patriarch, I know what I should do."

In just three days, Long Zhan, as well as the Military Advisors behind him knew about the matter of the spies. They became extremely tense and they were suspicious of everyone around them.

After seven days, the entire Ye Residence was massacred in the span of a night. General Ye Wufeng as well as his wife, servants, and maids. There wasn't a living creature in the entire Ye Residence. The scene was shrouded by a strong barrier, so no one noticed anything. Allegedly, they said that this was the work of the Dark Church as the entire Ye Residence was shrouded by a dense dark aura.

"Wufeng. Everything that I, Ximen Nu owe you, I will repay in the otherworld." Ximen Nu stood tall inside his courtyard as he stared into the starry skies. His eyes shone and no one knew what he was thinking.

Chapter 430: The method to cure Mea Empress

The effect of the massacre of the Ye Residence was huge. On the second day, Ximen Nu ferociously opened an investigation in order to flush out the culprit. It seemed as though he wanted to take revenge for Ye Wufeng, who had served him for so many years. Although it seemed to be a fair investigation, Ximen Nu's spear was directly pointed at the dark forces behind Long Zhan.

The allies of the Ximen Clan were enraged by such an act. In order to not become the next Ye Wufeng, after the massacre of Ye Residence, their alliance become closer and more solid compared to before. Other clans which were still sitting on the fence became more determined. They thought that Long Zhan's means were too bloody and that there was nothing to be sorry about even if they betrayed him.

On the other hand, it was complete chaos on Long Zhan's side. Due to the issue of the hidden spies, there was friction between many parties. The heart of the people wasn't in unison, and the entire group was about to crumble.

One had to say that Ye Wufeng was an extremely intelligent person. He used all sorts of ways to transmit the news of a spy hidden within Long Zhan's ranks, and ruthlessly exterminated his bloodline. He also left behind an ambiguous relation between the purge and the Dark Church. This led to the current situation. Ximen Nu might be endlessly enraged at the fact that such a loyal and steadfast subordinate was sent to his death. However, the rage further strengthened him. Although he was the one who sent his subordinate to his death.

Ximen Nu had no regrets with the decision he made. If he was given the chance to choose again, he would still have made the cruel decision of sacrificing his subordinate. Pain was something the leader must bear. He had to be cruel to others, and at the same time, he had to be cruel to himself.

Since the ancient times, there wasn't a leader which managed to climb up the ranks without stepping on tens of thousands of corpses. Among the corpses, there would likely be the loved ones and many of the leaders' friends.

...........

The moment of parting arrived. In life, there were moments of meeting, and there were also moments where friends would leave one another.

Long Yi looked at Bertha, Shui Ruoyan, Ximen Wuhen and Long Ling'er who stood in front of him. He was surprised in his heart as none of them had tears in their eyes when they looked at him. On the contrary, they smiled broadly and bid farewell to Long Yi and the others.

"Second brother, it's already late. You should be setting off soon." Ximen Wuhen said to Long Yi. As she stared at Long Yi with her big beautiful eyes, there wasn't a single trace of sadness as she blinked at him.

"Yes, my husband, hurry up and go. It is important that you arrive before the war starts." Long Ling'er also added. She appeared as though she couldn't wait to be rid of Long Yi.

Long Yi was stunned and made a wry smile on his face. He touched his nose as he didn't know what was going on. As a matter of fact, he originally intended to allow Long Ling'er and Ximen Wuhen follow him on his journey. However, he threw that thought to the back of his head after receiving Yin Jian's intelligence. Pulling the two of them closer to him, he ordered them to follow Shui Ruoyan closely if they realized that there was something suspicious going on.

Initially, the two of them disagreed with Long Yi. However, after some discussion, they were more than happy to agree with whatever Long Yi had to say. This contrast was so great that Long Yi was unable to accept the outcome for a period of time.

He had doubts in his mind, but Long Yi didn't have the time to ask any more questions. In any case, he had instructed the Skynet Intelligence Organization to keep out an eye on the whereabouts of these women.

Long Yi looked at Bertha. She was the only one who seemed normal. Although she was also smiling, anyone could see the reluctance and sadness in her eyes. As the only person in the Fox Clan to have the bloodline of the Silver Fox, it was impossible for her to wander everywhere with Long Yi. Not to mention that this time, her aunt, Mea Empress, said that she was going into seclusion. Mea Empress left everything to Bertha and asked her to discuss the matter about the Fox Clan with Yin Jian.

"Let's go..." Long Yi waved his hand. Bringing along Nalan Ruyue and Wushuang, they flew into the sky. In an instant, all three of them disappeared into the distance. In everyone's eyes, they became three small black dots as they flew into the distance.

Finally, Bertha could no longer hold her feelings back and her tears burst out of her eyes. Ximen Wuhen, Shui Ruoyan, and Long Ling'er were also dejected but they consoled Bertha in succession.

When Long Yi and the two women reached the edge of the Hengduan Mountains, Long Yi stopped in his tracks. Flying above the Hengduan Mountains, he slowly descended.

It was a piece of verdant bamboo forest beneath them. There was a clear brook flowing around the bamboo forest, and along with the gurgling sound of water, there was the sound of flowing water hitting the multi-colored cobblestones at the bottom of the brook. It was really an enjoyable moment for everyone's spirit.

At this time, a clear and melodious singing voice drifted along with flowing water. Long Yi and others were unable to understand the meaning of that song, but they were able to enter a special state of mind.

"This voice appears to be familiar. Long Yi, don't you feel so too?" Wushuang asked.

"Yes, this song feels extremely familiar!" Nalan Ruyue nodded her head and agreed with Wushuang.

With a light smile on his lips, Long Yi held Wushuang and Nalan Ruyue with his left and right hand respectively. He held onto their hand as he led them towards the source of the beautiful voice.

A thick bamboo pole slanted towards the center of the brook. A peerless beauty could be seen sitting elegantly on top of this bamboo pole. On her body, she was wrapped up in a coarse cloth, and a layer of hemp garment. Her pants were rolled up to her calf, and her feet kicked against the surface of the water as she sang. To everyone's surprise, the woman had a bushy snow-white fox tail hanging behind her. She was clearly a woman from the Fox Clan.

Nalan Ruyue and Wushuang were stunned for a good while before shouting in unison. "Mea Empress!"

Long Yi wasn't surprised at all. He looked at Mea Empress who was singing like a cheerful village girl with a smile. Currently, she had the appearance of a simple girl, but she was obviously extremely refined in her actions. Compared to her previous dignified appearance in the city, this was much better.

After Mea Empress finished singing, she turned around and looked towards Long Yi's trio. Although her hair was tied into two simple braids at the moment, she appeared especially moving.

"Mea Empress, Bertha said that you were in a seclusion. How are you able to appear here?" Nalan Ruyue asked in confusion.

Mea Empress smiled as she replied Nalan Ruyue, "Why don't you ask your dear husband? He is the reason why I am here. Also, you don't have to call me Mea Empress any longer. From now on, you can just address me by my name, Lianxin. Call me big sister Lianxin."

When Wushuang and Nalan Ruyue heard Mea Empress' words, they instantly turned their heads towards Long Yi.

With a shrug of his shoulders, he told them about what happened with Mea Empress. The two women were shocked. They had no idea that the Mea Empress who looked so healthy in front of them was affected by such a condition. She was actually at death's door when they saw her the other day.

"Long Yi, do you have a method to cure big sister Lianxin?" Wushaung asked.

"I am powerless about this. The meridians in her entire body and her internal organs have already begun to wither. Even if someone used the forbidden light magic spell on her, I'm afraid that it would be unable to save her. The only thing it could do was to prolong the time she has left in this world. There is almost no way to completely cure her." Long Yi shook his head and sighed.

"Then, what are we going to do?" Nalan Ruyue nervously asked Long Yi. She was unable to believe the fact that Mea Empress was actually dying.

"Wushuang, I need your help for this. I hope that you can make a trip down to Origin Ice. Bring Lianxin with you." Long Yi looked at Wushuang and sincerely requested.

Wushuang was startled and she suddenly thought of something, "Long Yi, you want to use the crystal coffin to suppress big sister Lianxin's condition?"

Long Yi nodded his head. Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other way. The only thing he could do now was to delay Mea Empress' death. In order to do that, he wanted to let her sleep inside the crystal coffin. He would slowly think of a way to cure her.

There wasn't much time left, and the four of them quickly resumed their journey. With great haste, they rushed towards the border of the Proud Moon Empire.

After two days, the four of them were able to reach the border of the Proud Moon Empire. It was just like they had expected. A huge part of the snow had already melted. The water produced from the melted snow had flowed everywhere, and it even went as far as to submerge villages and cities which were situated in low-lying areas. Right after the calamity with the snow, the Proud Moon Empire was hit with a series of floods. The Proud Moon Empire was truly plagued with misfortunes.

Wushuang didn't speak much, but she turned and gave Long Yi a deep stare. The love she had for this man closed the gap of thousands of years between them. She was unable to cry and act like a spoiled child in front of him. Although she was reluctant to part with him, one look from her was all it took for Long Yi to know what she was thinking. Sometimes, words were not needed when a couple wanted to express their emotions. The communication through each other's soul was enough to let each other know what the other party was thinking.

Wushuang took Mea Empress and flew away. 'Parting is for a better reunion', This sentence was etched deep into Wushuang's memory.

"Let's go! What are you looking at? They are long gone." Nalan Ruyue said with a smile.

Long Yi turned his head and stared at Nalan Ruyue. He stared deep into her eyes as he looked at her smiling face. There was a trace of pity in his gaze.

"My husband, what is going on? Why on earth are you looking at me like this? It's making me feel uneasy. Are you hiding something from me?" Seeing the trace of pity in Long Yi's eyes, the heart of Nalan Ruyue suddenly jumped. She couldn't control herself as she asked him with worry in her voice.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Let's go! We have to continue with our journey. Don't you see that the ice and snow is almost completely melted? Our army might have already started clashing with the Proud Moon Empire." Long Yi smiled and pinched Nalan Ruyue's beautiful face. He gave her his cheeky smile and grabbed her hand.

Nalan Ruyue suspiciously looked at Long Yi and nodded her head. Tightening her grip on Long Yi's hand, they began to advance towards the Yatesianna defense line.

Throughout their journey, Nalan Ruyue rested on Long Yi's back occasionally when she felt tired. However, Long Yi never stopped for a rest and completed the entire journey in one go.

Currently, the military camps were situated side by side. They stretched as far as the eye could see. All kinds of flags were fluttering in the wind, and the stern atmosphere could be felt from afar. The troops of the Nalan Empire and Violent Dragon Empire were impatient as they had been hibernating all winter. Their blood was boiling and their morale had reached its highest point.

Without attracting much attention, Long Yi and Nalan Ruyue made their way towards the Unparalleled Battalion. It was an independent battalion which was situated in the midst of the Violent Dragon Legion.

When Beitang Yu saw that Long Yi had returned, excitement flashed in her eyes. However, she quickly calmed down as she summoned Tyrant Bear and the other high-ranking military officers. Since Long Yi had arrived, they could begin the military conference.

Looking at Beitang Yu who developed the air of a peerless general around here, Long Yi secretly praised her in his heart. This female general had obtained unimaginable glory in the battlefield. He was also proud of himself. After all, she was trained by him.

Eventually, all the high-ranking military officers were gathered. Long Yi sat on the commander's chair as he felt their feverish gazes on his face.

"Vice Legion Commander Ximen Tian, is he still in the legion?" Long Yi asked slowly.

"Replying to general, two days ago, Vice Legion Commander received Patriarch Ximen's transfer order. He is currently en route, returning to Soaring Dragon City." Beitang Yu answered.

Long Yi nodded his head. The absence of Ximen Tian had something to do with him as well. After thinking for a little bit, Long Yi loudly declared, "Tonight, all of you will follow me. We'll enter the legion together. I want complete control over the entire Violent Dragon Legion."

Chapter 431: Stars know my heart

When Long Yi said those words, everyone was shocked. However, their expressions changed to a happy one in an instant. Good deeds were often hard to encounter.

No one asked why as this wasn't something they should worry about. Their duty was to obey orders, especially Long Yi's orders.

Long Yi began to deploy his troops. Long Yi not only wanted to control Army Commander Shate, he wanted to control all the influential generals in the Violent Dragon Legion. He especially wanted to control the trusted subordinates under Ximen Tian.

Late at night, the barracks of the Unparalleled Battalion was still brightly lit. All the soldiers of the Unparalleled Battalion were wearing their military armor and they were lined up neatly. They were awaiting orders from above and they were ready to fight at a moment's notice.

The atmosphere was somewhat grave. Long Yi was sitting there as he thrummed his fingers on the table. The clattering sound shook the nerves of the generals standing below.

All of a sudden, the curtain of the tent was lifted and a soldier of the Unparalleled Battalion ran in. After performing his military salute, he handed over the military report with both hands and said, "Reporting to General, a person with General's written orders was here to deliver this military report."

Long Yi grabbed the report and opened it. A smile immediately appeared on his face. This military report reported the names of the important people in the Violent Dragon Legion along with their specific location. It even had the arrangement of the troops around them.

"Well, all of you can take this military report and look at it. After a quarter of an hour, take actions according to the plan. However, you have to remember, I don't want to see any casualties. It doesn't matter if it is among the soldiers of our Unparalleled Battalion or among the soldiers in the other battalions. Do you understand?" Long Yi's expression was flat, but his gaze was firm and he emitted a kind of imposing aura. It was an aura which appeared on superior beings.

Perhaps, Long Yi's playful expression would only disappear in the military barracks. The hidden temperament of a soldier in him would only show itself when he was in the military barracks. For him, the significance of controlling this army was far more than merely leading the troops to war.

"We understand!" Everyone simultaneously answered in a loud voice.

Currently, the sky was pitch black. A thick layer of clouds covered up even the brightest of stars. Except for the torches in the military barracks, there wasn't any other source of light.

Inside the tent of the Violent Dragon Legion, Army Commander Shate was sitting in his bathtub. He soaked his body in cold water while sipping on a glass of good wine. He seemed as though he was enjoying himself greatly.

This year, Shate was already 55 years old. 40 years had already passed since the time he had joined the army at the age of 15. He was a very fortunate man. After mixing around in the military camp for three years without any achievements, he was about to retire with no achievements under his belt. On the day he was going to retire, Ximen Nu arrived at the military camp for an inspection. To everyone's surprise, spies planted in the military camp attacked Ximen Nu while he was in the middle of his inspection. Those spies were planted by Ximen Nu's enemies, and they were experts. They wanted to assassinate Ximen Nu when his guard was at his lowest.

Shate was an intelligent person. He knew that this was an opportunity. He dashed ahead without regard of his own safety in order to protect Ximen Nu and he received more than dozens of cuts on his body. From then on, he was regarded as the trusted subordinate of Ximen Nu and was eventually cultivated by Ximen Nu.

In the Violent Dragon Legion, the role of Shate was to suppress Ximen Tian. Of course, Ximen Tian had a similar role as he was there to suppress Shate. This was all Ximen Nu's arrangement. It's not because he didn't trust them. However, he preferred to be prepared for all contingencies. After all, the Violent Dragon Legion played a vital role in deciding the Ximen Clan's power.

"Our Army Commander is truly enjoying himself. How about drinking a glass with me?" A laughter resounded in the big tent and Long Yi appeared out of thin air. He appeared right behind Shate who was still in the bathtub.

Shate was startled, and a deep blue colored douqi flashed around his body.

All of a sudden, he relaxed. Without any hurry, he turned around to look at Long Yi. With a smile on his face, he said, "So it is the young master who has arrived. I wonder what noble errand brings you here so late at night?"

Long Yi pulled a chair and sat down. He poured himself a glass of wine without worrying about his manners as he re-evaluated Shate's strength. Just now, in the midst of dark blue douqi he emitted, there was a trace of purple color. This clearly showed that he had already reached the pinnacle of the Great Swords Master realm, and he was not too far away from breaking through to the Swords Saint realm.

"I naturally have some matter if I'm here to look for you. I want to control the entire Violent Dragon Legion. I wonder if such a thing is possible?" Long Yi placed one leg above the other and said while he sipped a mouthful of wine. A command tablet belonging to the Ximen Clan appeared in midair.

When he saw the command tablet, Shate was shocked. He didn't have time to cover his ** body as he hastily jumped out of the bathtub. Kneeling down on the floor, he received the order, "Subordinate Shate obeys the order of the patriarch."

As a matter of fact, he already knew that Ximen Nu greatly doted on Long Yi. However, he never would have thought that Ximen Nu would actually hand over the patriarch's command tablet to Long Yi. This clearly displayed his intentions about wanting Long Yi to succeed the patriarch's position.

Long Yi nodded his head. This Shate had a clear view of things, and his reaction was no different from Long Yi's expectation.

Shate wore his clothes and he became more respectful in his treatment towards Long Yi.

"Second Young Master, although I am willing to hand over the control of the Violent Dragon Legion to you, my word might not work so well. Especially against some factions." Shate said with some hesitation. Ximen Tian had managed the Violent Dragon Legion for so many years and there were many subordinates who were stubbornly loyal to him.

"I know about this. You don't have to worry about anything else." Long Yi said with indifference.

Shate nodded his head and took out his command tablet. He respectfully passed the Army Commander's command tablet to Long Yi.

To his surprise, Long Yi said, "The command tablet of the Army Commander will still be in your custody. All you have to do is to listen to my commands. Can you do it?"

"This subordinate Shate swears to the Light God. As long as Second Young Master Ximen gives the command, even if this subordinate has to go through fire and water, this subordinate will not hesitate to fulfill Second Young Master Ximen's order." Shate swore allegiance to Long Yi. It was just like what he did to Ximen Nu in the past. He knew that the master he would be serving in the future would be this mysterious and unfathomable second young master.

"Very good. Shate, now I know why my father trusts you so much and let you manage the entire Violent Dragon Legion. You are very intelligent." Long Yi stared at Shate with keen, sparkling eyes as he laughed.

At this moment, chaos broke out in more than ten places within the Violent Dragon Legion's military camp. However, the chaos was quelled within moments. Some shrewd officers had already anticipated for something to happen, but most of them chose to remain silent. Some of the more restless ones managed to calm down after they received the personally written order of the Army Commander.

Before long, Tyrant Bear, Beitang Yu, Nangong Nu, along with many high-ranking military officers entered the large military tent. They brought along more than ten high-ranking military officers in the Violent Dragon Legion. Of course, the commanders in the Unparalleled Battalion had suppressed them all.

"Reporting to General, this subordinate was lucky that he completed the mission successfully. Not a single person was killed or wounded." Tyrant Bear excitedly saluted Long Yi immediately upon entering. As for Army Commander Shate, he treated him as though he was air.

Long Yi looked around and saw everyone in his name list. He couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.

After instructing for these people to be detained, the expression of Long Yi became serious. His eyes shone and his body emitted an imposing aura. Everyone around him involuntarily straightened their backs and their nerves became taut.

"This moment is the most critical moment of the entire war. After the snow and ice completely melt, the fall of the Proud Moon Empire is imminent. However, there is something else going on right now. As for what the event is, none of you need to know anything about it. All you need to know that this event will topple the alliance of the Violent Dragon Empire and the Nalan Empire. All our previous efforts and sacrifices will be wasted." The voice of Long Yi was powerful and impressive. It pressured everyone in the room.

The complexion of all the high-ranking military officials, including Army Commander Shate, became tense and they started becoming anxious. What kind of event would have such a big impact? They didn't dare to make wild guesses.

"My command is to mobilize all the power of our Violent Dragon Legion to seal off the border of both the Nalan Empire and the Proud Moon Empire. We will only allow people to leave, and no one is to enter either border. Also, I want all of you to arrange hidden lookouts on the periphery of the army camp belonging to the Nalan Empire. Both legions of the Nalan Empire have to be under our watch. Shoot dead anyone who attempts to enter the two legions. This is a serious mission. I know it will be very difficult, but, no matter the difficulty or the price, I want this mission completed. If any of you are unable to do this, you don't have to appear in the Violent Dragon Legion any longer." Long Yi said.

Everyone who heard Long Yi's order couldn't help but shiver. They simultaneously accepted his command and swore that they would complete this mission.

In the same night, Army Commander Shate called together all the military officers and discussed official business throughout the night. Only at the dusk of next day were they dismissed. They rushed back to their respective battalions with red eyes and announced Army Commander Shate's order.

Among the officers that were discussing official business, Beitang Yu, Tyrant Bear, and other backbones of the Unparalleled Battalion were naturally included. The result of the discussion was to let the Unparalleled Battalion seal off the military camps of the Nalan Empire's two legions. Of course, they were to do so in secret. They would kill anyone they deem suspicious on the spot. No one was allowed to enter the military camp of the Nalan Empire before this order was lifted.

When Beitang Yu returned to her big tent, Long Yi was already missing. The only thing he left behind was a note. On the note, there were four words, "Stars knows my heart."

Beitang Yu tightly held onto this slip of paper. From the four words, he could feel Long Yi's warmth. He came in a hurry and also left in a hurry. Long Yi didn't even have the time to properly speak with her. However, she had no complaints. There was a kind of love that could be felt even if nothing was said out loud. Even if they didn't talk all the time, they shared a sense of happiness.

"My husband, do you know? Only you can light up my life." Beitang Yu muttered and her steadfast beautiful face changed. Her face displayed her gentleness and affection she had for Long Yi, as her eyes shone like stars in the sky.

Beitang Yu lifted the curtains covering the windows. Looking into the sky, she closed her eyes. Feeling the cold starlight trickling on her body, she felt like she was in the warm bosom of her sweetheart.

Stars know my heart. Yes, who would be able to read her mind? She could only pour her thoughts out to the stars. The expression of Beitang Yu seemed intoxicated and happy at the same time. Currently, the tender feelings she had deep in her heart completely manifested.

Stars know my heart. The light breeze would deliver my favorable reply. If the stars in the sky represented Long Yi's heart, then let gentle breeze bring her thoughts to him.

After a long time, Beitang Yu's glittering beautiful face became solemn again. She changed back into the cold-blooded Hell Angel who terrified the battlefield.

Chapter 432: Nalan Empire falls into chaos

Nalan Ruyue was feeling more and more confused and her heart was also becoming more and more restless.

"My husband, what is going on? If you still refuse to tell me what is going on, I'll stay here. I won't go anywhere else." Nalan Ruyue shook off Long Yi's hand as she descended from the sky. In a fit of pique, she sat under a tree and refused to get up. Although she was acting like a spoilt child, her heart was jumping violently.

Long Yi sighed in his heart and walked in front of Nalan Ruyue. If they continued their journey, they would have crossed the border in just a few minutes. They would already have been in the Nalan Empire.

"There is nothing going on… I was thinking of visiting the sea in Blue Moon City. Could it be that you don't miss the sea in Blue Moon City?" Long Yi sat beside Nalan Ruyue and asked her. According to his calculations, the Nalan Empire might be already flipped upside down by now.

"Of course I miss the sea. I miss everything in Blue Moon City. However… My heart is restless. It is beating so quickly, I'm afraid that it might burst out of my chest soon. It's telling me that something bad has happened." Nalan Ruyue grabbed Long Yi's hand in agitation as she pressed it against her towering left chest. Long Yi could feel that her heartbeat was truly chaotic.

Long Yi sank into silence as he wondered whether or not to break the news to her.

"My husband, don't hide anything from me. I know that something definitely happened. Otherwise, your smile wouldn't contain pity whenever you look at me. You also wouldn't have left the military camp so hastily without properly greeting everyone." Nalan Ruyue was extremely anxious as she wanted to know what exactly happened.

Long Yi patted Nalan Ruyue's beautiful face and decided to tell her. In any case, Nalan Ruyue would learn the truth sooner or later.

"Currently, your father should be surrounded by his enemies and his condition seems grim. Your two brothers are also fighting for the throne." Long Yi said with a serious expression as he stared into Nalan Ruyue's eyes. He couldn't bear to look at Nalan Ruyue's increasingly pale complexion any longer.

"How could that be? Emperor Father had always been healthy. This is not possible… Could it be that someone plotted against him? Did someone plan to murder Emperor Father? Who could it be? Long Yi, tell me who did it." Nalan Ruyue shook Long Yi's arm as she yelled. Although she hated Nalan Wuji, he was her biological father after all. Moreover, she knew that Nalan Wuji greatly doted on her. Deep in her heart, she still loved him.

"Your two big brothers. They colluded with the Proud Moon Empire and the beast-men clans." Long Yi sighed. Seeing as Nalan Ruyue was about to faint, he wrapped his hands around her and hugged her closer to himself.

In the past, Yin Jian had learnt about this shocking news when he discreetly probed around the Bimeng Clan. The two sons of Nalan Wuji, Nalan Wen and Nalan Wu, had been feeling Nalan Wuji a slow acting poison since a long time ago. The poison was given to them by the Dark Church. The poison wouldn't show any symptoms when ingested. However, it would accumulate in the body of the victim. When too much poison was accumulated in the body of the victim, it would change into dark power to corrode the internal organs and blood vessels of the victim. That was not all, the poison would affect the corpse, and the corpse would give everyone the impression that the victim was a cultivator of dark magic.

In the past, Nalan Wuji had already been sick. He was already beyond cure when Long Yi learnt that he was sick. Not to mention the fact that the distance between Mea Principality and Blue Moon City was too far. Long Yi didn't return immediately when he learnt about the news.

Long Yi knew that after Nalan Wuji died, the Nalan Empire would fall into chaos. Nalan Wen and Nalan Wu, being idiots, would definitely recall both legions from the Yatesianna defense line. They would use the two legions to contend for power and it would affect the war. If they did that, the alliance of the Violent Dragon Empire and the Nalan Empire would collapse without a doubt, and obtaining victory would become a pipe dream. All of their previous victories which they had obtained after paying a huge price would be thrown away.

Moreover, the Proud Moon Empire and the beast-men clans would take advantage of this opportunity. The Proud Moon Empire would definitely counter-attack, and the armies of the beast-men clans would start a rebellion.

The entire Blue Waves Continent would be thrown into greater chaos and it would become a mess of blended porridge. At that time, the true slaughtering would begin and numerous ethnic groups would likely go extinct.

Whatever the case, Long Yi couldn't let this happen. As such, he used the Violent Dragon Legion to completely seal off the borders. He was making sure that the messengers of the Nalan Empire could not come into contact with the troops on the frontline. Of course the soldiers' morale would be affected when they heard the news. The Proud Moon Empire would definitely spread the news of Nalan Wuji's death without any restraint. However, without the official letter from the Nalan Empire, the two legions from the Nalan Empire would not be able to retreat even if they were suspicious of anything. When the time comes, the people from the Skynet Intelligence Organisation would do their thing and there shouldn't be any big problems.

"My husband, let's quickly return home. Rumeng is still in Blue Moon City. She must be extremely scared now." Currently, Nalan Ruyue's face was white as a sheet, and it was so pale that there wasn't a trace of blood. After thinking about what happened, she thought of her younger sister, Nalan Rumeng. If anything happened to Nalan Rumeng, she would definitely break down.

Long Yi nodded his head. Holding onto Nalan Ruyue's slender waist, he flew towards Blue Moon City.

The moment they entered the Nalan Empire, they were shocked. Beyond Long Yi's expectations, the entire empire had already fallen into chaos. The news of Nalan Wuji's death due to the backlash of cultivating dark power was already broadcasted the day before. Since then, Nalan Wen and Nalan Wu had already started their race for the throne. With their supporters backing them, they had already commanded all the garrison forces to return to Blue Moon City. This resulted in city-wide chaos, as social order was disrupted. Robbing, killing, and stealing were rampant. Everyone felt insecure and the entire empire was in turmoil.

Seeing the chaos underneath them, the pale Nalan Ruyue gritted her teeth. She clearly knew what was going on. Since the Nalan Empire had met with disaster and had fallen into chaos, the subsidiary kingdoms and principalities would definitely hit them when they were down. As for what kind of people her brothers were, she was extremely clear about it. They were worse than trash, and if she wasn't careful, the foundation of the Nalan Empire which was built over a millennium would be destroyed in a day. That would be the end for the Nalan Empire.

"My husband, what should I do?" Nalan Ruyue stuck closer to Long Yi in order to draw warmth from his body. If Long Yi wasn't standing beside her, she would have already fallen.

"Nothing will happen, I will be by your side." Long Yi softly comforted Nalan Ruyue. However, he spoke in a steadfast tone.

Looking at Long Yi, she nodded her head and her mood eased a little. Yes, she still had Long Yi, her omnipotent husband. He would definitely be able to think of a way.

Long Yi held onto Nalan Ruyue as he looked downwards. Before long, a trace of strange smile appeared on his face. This was a huge crisis, but couldn't this also be a huge chance? If the meat pie falling from the sky didn't crush him to death, wouldn't he have the best food?

Nalan Wen and Nalan Wu, these two trashes were simply not worth mentioning. If he killed them without anyone finding out, wouldn't the only people with the royal bloodline be Nalan Ruyue and Nalan Rumeng? At that time, if he helped Nalan Ruyue to obtain the throne, wouldn't the Nalan Empire fall into his hands? However, Long Yi knew that it wouldn't be as easy as he thought. Those two trash brothers must have a 'master-hand' behind them, giving them instructions. They were probably controlled by people of the Proud Moon Empire or people from the Darl Church. It wouldn't be easy for Long Yi to achieve his goals.

They rushed over to the Blue Moon City, and after a week, they finally arrived at the gates.

"If there was a Magic Transmission Array between towns, how wonderful that would be?" Such thought appeared in Long Yi's mind. It was a pity that truly advanced magic arrays have been lost in the passage of time. Most magic arrays passed down were incomplete.

All of a sudden, Long Yi thought about the books he had found in the Lost City's Holy Temple. Among them, several books ought to have recorded different kinds of magic arrays., He recalled that there were all sorts of magic array patterns drawn in the book. At the time, he wasn't able to understand anything in the books. He didn't dare to mess with them for fear that he would screw something up. Wushuang knew a number of simple magic arrays, but she didn't know about the Transmission Magic Array. This kind of complicated and large magic array was difficult for anyone to understand. She said that knowledge about magic arrays is profound and the complexity astounding. How could an average person have the energy to study them at the same time?

"If someone could understand those books, it would be wonderful!" Long Yi secretly thought in his heart.

Long Yi didn't remain deep in his thoughts. In the outskirts of the flourishing Blue Moon City, there were all kinds of miscellaneous regiments. Each of the group was glaring at each other. They were like tigers eyeing their prey. From how they looked at each other, it was obvious that they had pledged loyalty to different princes.

The situation was not as bad as it seemed. At least, they haven't started fighting. Since they were not engaged in the full-scale war yet, the Nalan Empire was still relatively powerful. If a large scale civil war really took place, then the vitality of the Nalan Empire would certainly be greatly damaged. Recovering the damaged vitality of a great empire wasn't something that could be achieved in a year or two.

"Whoever is coming, return. Blue Moon City is closed to outsiders." At this time, several Master Magician flew into the air. This was the air defense network of Blue Moon City.

"Do you guys not recognize us? Or are you just pretending that you don't recognize us?" Long Yi said with a smile. Nalan Ruyue was very well-known in the entire Blue Waves Continent, let alone her own country.

The complexion of these Master Magicians changed simultaneously. After hesitating for a little while, they paid their courtesies in the sky, "This subordinate pays respect to Princess Ruyue and her husband. However, His Majesty has just passed away. Both the first prince and second prince gave instructions to not let anyone enter Blue Moon City."

"You also know that His Majesty has just passed away. How can we not go and pay our respects to him? The two princes are referring to other people, not us. Do you understand?" The complexion of Long Yi sunk and his aura burst out of his body. His aura pressured those Master Magicians who were in the sky. The complexion of these Master Magicians became pale and they were on the verge of collapsing.

"Son-in-law, calm your anger. Wait for us to go and make the report. Please don't make things difficult for us." Those magicians were panting as they desperately cried. In their heart, they were terrified and felt powerless as they faced Long Yi. The pressure Long Yi placed on them made them feel as though there was a big mountain pressing down on them. If his aura could make them feel such pressure, he should have reached the Master Archmage realm already. They should absolutely not provoke him.

"No, you are the ones making things difficult for us. Make way when this Young Master is showing mercy. Otherwise, you'll all turn into corpses soon." Long Yi said with indifference..

The expression of those magicians changed immediately. Gritting their teeth, they eventually got out of Long Yi's way.

"Not bad, a wise man submits to circumstances. How about following this Young Master and the Princess from now on?" Long Yi said. These magicians were not weak at all. Perhaps, they were qualified to help Long Yi run some errands.

The magicians were startled for a while as they looked at the city wall beneath them. They wanted to say something but decided not to.

"You can all leave. Call for more people. Wait for me at the Bright Moon Restaurant inside the city tomorrow evening." Long Yi smiled and sent a palm strike towards them. As if they were artillery shells, the magicians flew towards the city wall.

Bang, those magicians flew and smashed into the thick bluestone and they stunned everyone around them. The impact should have claimed their lives… However, the crowd was surprised as the magicians climbed out of the cracks without any injury. They were unexpectedly fine after smashing into the thick wall. Everyone was shocked as they didn't know that it was possible.

When everyone turned to look at the magicians, Long Yi and Nalan Ruyue had already disappeared without a trace. When they appeared again, they reached the imperial palace. They arrived at a secluded corner of the huge palace.
