Chapter 213: Meeting Yun Yun Again, Xiao Yan Takes Action

Carrying deep hatred and a desire for revenge, Mo Yu and Xiao Yan wasted no time on their journey back to the Yun Lan Sect. They traveled non-stop, and in just two days, they arrived back at the capital.

Once they returned to the capital, the two, covered in dust from their journey, did not stop. Their bodies transformed into two streams of light, quickly soaring over the city, heading directly toward a majestic mountain range on the horizon.

At the Yun Lan Sect, in the main hall, more than a dozen figures sat around a large table. Most of these people were dressed in white robes, marking them as the sect's elders and high-ranking members. On the other side of the table sat Pill King Gu He, with Liu Ling standing respectfully behind him. Opposite Liu Ling stood a woman in a moon-colored robe—Nalan Yanran.

"Yun Leng, why did you and Yun Lei, Yun Sheng leave the sect a few days ago?" In the quiet hall, a woman's voice, calm but tinged with authority, suddenly broke the silence.

"Sect Leader... we... we just had some personal matters to attend to," Yun Leng replied quickly, his hand clenching slightly as he heard the woman's voice.

Following Yun Leng's gaze, one could see a woman dressed in a light moon-colored robe seated in the middle of the table. Her face was both noble and beautiful, but now it showed a hint of anger. This woman was none other than the current leader of the Yun Lan Sect, Yun Yun.

"You went to Wu Tan City, didn't you!" Yun Yun's cold voice echoed as she frowned slightly.

"Sect Leader, Mo Yu and Xiao Yan caused our sect great shame. If we just let them off so easily, wouldn't that make people think that anyone could trample on our Yun Lan Sect? I went to Wu Tan City just to teach the Xiao family a small lesson, to show them that our Yun Lan Sect is not to be trifled with," Yun Leng explained.

Hearing this, Yun Yun's face grew even more stern. She had learned about the trouble Mo Yu and Xiao Yan caused at the Yun Lan Sect when she returned a few days ago. While the three-year agreement had sparked this situation, Yun Leng, as the head elder, had acted recklessly due to personal grudges, which she found foolish.

Moreover, when it came to Mo Yu, Yun Yun couldn't shake the memories of their encounters in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. These memories stirred complicated feelings in her heart, making her even more upset that Yun Leng had gone to provoke the Xiao family.

"Enough, Yun Leng! Acting on your own like that has tarnished the reputation of our Yun Lan Sect. How does that reflect on us?" Yun Yun scolded, her voice stern.

Yun Leng's face turned various shades of red and white, but he didn't dare to argue. Instead, he cast a pleading glance at Yun Shan, who was sitting next to Yun Yun with his eyes closed.

"Don't look at me. According to the rules of the sect, Yun'er is the Sect Leader now, and even I must listen to her," Yun Shan said calmly, without opening his eyes.

As soon as Yun Shan finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and his eyes flew open. A powerful and terrifying aura spread throughout the hall.

"Master? What's wrong?" Yun Yun asked, surprised.

"Even though we might want to let this go, it seems the Xiao family's twin dragons don't agree," Yun Shan said, his face darkening as he looked out towards the sky beyond the hall.

Not long after Yun Shan spoke, a voice filled with cold, undisguised killing intent rang out from the sky like thunder, quickly spreading across the entire mountain.

"Yun Leng, you old dog, come out and meet your death!"

The cold voice echoed like thunder across the mountain range.

Inside the Yun Lan Sect, every disciple looked up at the blue sky, where two slender figures hovered in the air. The chilling killing intent radiated from one of them, a young man in a black robe.

"Mo Yu and Xiao Yan? They've come back?"

Some sharp-eyed disciples recognized the cold faces of the two young men in the sky. Immediately, shocked exclamations rang out across the Yun Lan Sect.

These were the same Xiao family twins who had turned the Yun Lan Sect upside down, and their names were firmly etched in the memory of every disciple.

"Mo Yu, Xiao Yan, how dare you act so rudely! Are you courting death?" Yun Leng, whose face had turned ashen, glared at the two hovering in the sky. But before he could act, Xiao Yan swiftly drew his heavy Xuan Ruler from his back, pointing it directly at Yun Leng, and said coldly.

"You old bastard, even if Yun Shan protects you today, I'll still take your life!"

"Such arrogance! I've been looking for you, and today, I'll make sure you stay in the Yun Lan Sect forever," Yun Leng sneered, gritting his teeth in anger. Being confronted like this, with his name dragged through the mud in front of the entire sect, made his blood boil.

"Yun Leng, silence!" A cold voice suddenly rang out from the sky. Hearing this, the disciples of the Yun Lan Sect bowed slightly, and even Yun Leng had to grit his teeth and take a step back, though he was clearly furious.

Several streaks of white light flashed across the sky, and soon, several figures appeared above. Among them was a woman in a light moon-colored robe, her hair styled elegantly like a phoenix crown, enhancing her noble and beautiful face.

Mo Yu's gaze slowly scanned the newly arrived group and settled on the dignified woman in the center. There was no doubt that she was Yun Yun.

Recalling the absurd moments they had shared in that mountain cave, Mo Yu felt a slight stir of emotion upon seeing her again. However, when he thought of his deceased grandfather, his heart grew cold once more. Despite Yun Yun being the Sect Leader of the Yun Lan Sect, Yun Leng had to die, and the Yun Lan Sect had to be destroyed.

Yun Yun also noticed Mo Yu, and when she saw the face that had appeared in her dreams many times, now even more handsome and mature, her heart couldn't help but feel a surge of joy. But when she saw the cold and distant expression on Mo Yu's handsome face, a sudden panic gripped her, and she felt a faint ache in her chest.

Clenching her teeth and biting her lip, Yun Yun's delicate hand, hidden within her sleeve, tightened so hard that her knuckles turned white.

Although Yun Yun didn't know why Mo Yu had such an expression, she guessed it had something to do with Yun Leng. Could something have happened to the Xiao family? The thought made her anxious. If Yun Leng had indeed caused irreparable harm to the Xiao family, what would that mean for her and Mo Yu?

"Mo Yu, Xiao Yan, I let you go last time, so why have you come back to our Yun Lan Sect, and why do you publicly insult our sect's elders? Do you really think our Yun Lan Sect is so easy to bully?" Yun Shan's voice boomed sternly.

Mo Yu shifted his gaze from Yun Yun to Yun Shan, his expression full of murderous intent. "Sect Leader Yun Shan, why have we come to the Yun Lan Sect? Perhaps you should ask Elder Yun Leng. My grandfather died at his hands. Today, Yun Leng must die, and the Yun Lan Sect will cease to exist!"

His cold words sent a chill through the air, making the faces of those in the sky darken. Yun Shan and Yun Yun both looked grim. They hadn't expected this matter to have resulted in a death.

Yun Yun's usually noble and composed face turned pale. Mo Yu's grandfather had died, and the culprit was someone from her own Yun Lan Sect?

"This matter was indeed excessive on Yun Leng's part. What compensation do you want? Our Yun Lan Sect will try to meet your demands," Yun Shan said seriously, his tone softer than before, possibly because he knew his side was at fault.

"Compensation? You think compensation is enough?" Mo Yu hadn't yet spoken when a thunderous roar erupted from Xiao Yan, who stood beside him.

"That old dog Yun Leng not only harmed Uncle Mo but also chased my father away! He hasn't returned yet, and his life is still in danger. If you don't give me an explanation today, even if it costs me my life, I will make sure your Yun Lan Sect pays dearly!"

"Your father? Yun Leng never mentioned he harmed your father. As for Uncle Mo, if what you say is true, I will certainly punish Yun Leng severely." Yun Yun looked at the furious Xiao Yan and the grim-faced Mo Yu. For the first time in many years, someone had come to her sect to confront them. Normally, she would be furious.

Yet, for some reason, she couldn't muster any anger toward Mo Yu. Biting her lip, she finally turned to Yun Leng and angrily demanded, "Yun Leng, explain this clearly, or I have the authority to temporarily strip you of your position as the head elder!"

"Sect Leader, I didn't kill anyone! I only lightly injured an old man as I was leaving the Xiao family, but I didn't use much force." Cold sweat dripped down Yun Leng's forehead as he hurriedly explained, "As for the Xiao family's leader, we did chase after him, but just as we were about to catch him in a dense forest, he suddenly disappeared. We searched the area, but we couldn't find any trace of him."

"Disappeared suddenly? With just a casual strike?" Yun Yun's brow furrowed as she bit back her anger. "You went to the Xiao family and caused trouble, and now you dare say it wasn't your fault! As for Xiao Zhan, his strength is only at the level of a Dou Master. How could he disappear right under the noses of a Dou Wang and two Dou Ling? If you're going to lie, at least come up with a better excuse!"

"I swear it's true, Sect Leader! If you don't believe me, you can ask Yun Lei and Yun Sheng. They saw it with their own eyes. I swear on my life, I'm not lying," Yun Leng said with a bitter smile.

Yun Yun and Yun Shan exchanged a glance, both frowning deeply. Even if they believed Yun Leng, Xiao Yan would never let this go so easily. And as for Uncle Mo's death, that seemed all too likely, meaning this was a deep-seated blood feud.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on Yun Leng with icy hatred. The rage boiling inside him grew even more intense. He turned to Mo Yu and asked, "Brother Mo Yu, this time, can you let me strike first?"

Hearing this, Mo Yu paused, then nodded thoughtfully. "If you're confident, go ahead. This time, we must make the Yun Lan Sect pay dearly."

"Don't worry," Xiao Yan replied, nodding. His hands moved quickly, and the massive Xuan Ruler vanished from his grip. He extended his right hand, and under everyone's watchful eyes, a cluster of blue flames rose gracefully.

"The Yun Lan Sect harmed my family, kidnapped my father. Today, I will destroy this place." Xiao Yan's eyes were locked on the blue flames, his black pupils reflecting the fierce blue light. His voice, filled with killing intent, sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Mo Yu's expression also grew serious. Could this be the debut of the future Flame Emperor's ultimate move? If he wasn't mistaken, Xiao Yan was about to unleash the real Buddha Fury Lotus Flame, formed by combining two different heavenly flames.

As Mo Yu watched, Xiao Yan's left hand slowly rose, and with a flick of his wrist, a ghostly white flame suddenly appeared, startling everyone.

"An unusual flame?" The eyes of those present widened in shock as they stared at the white flame.

Xiao Yan's hands paused briefly before slowly bringing the two flames closer together under the watchful eyes of everyone present.

With a slight raise of his hand, the blue and white fire lotus floated gently into the air. Xiao Yan, his face expressionless, waved his arm, and the fire lotus instantly transformed into a streak of fiery light, shooting towards the fleeing Yun Leng.

In the next moment, the blue and white fire lotus, like a meteor descending from the heavens, carried an aura of utter destruction as it streaked across the sky, its target the terrified Yun Leng.

"Boom!"

The explosion was deafening. The blue and white fire lotus erupted with a force like a thunderclap, reverberating for hundreds of miles around the Yun Lan Sect.

Witnessing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but murmur to himself, "The power of heavenly flames in the Dou Qi Continent is indeed no less than that of mysterious lightning."
