“For the future?” Yun Teng questioned.
There was a coldness in Yun Teng’s eyes. He stared at his father, the lord of the Yun n.
His father had promised to cultivate Qianxue before. He used to believe it was true and thought his father wanted to atone for Qianxue’s father’s death in this way.
Obviously, he thought too much.
Qianxue didn’t go to the Imperial City with them; she was sent away beforehand with many other outstandingdies of the n.
But the person who picked them up was from the Zhong n of the Imperial City.
How could Yun Teng not understand that the Yun n—his family—had sold Qianyue in exchange for the family interest?
“So, you sent her to the Zhong n for the future?” The light of lightning exuded from Yun Teng’s body. He tried to control his fury and snarled in a low voice, “Qianyue is still young, but she has shown very unusual talent. The n has already been indebted to her because of her father’s death. Why do you still want to do this?”
He was even reluctant to believe that it was a thing the Yun n of Luo City could do.
They couldn’t be more cold-blooded.
“It was Qianyue’s extraordinary talent that made the Zhong n pay attention to her. You are very clear about the Zhong n’s status. She will have a better future with them,” continued Lord Yun.
“Father, I can’t believe such brazen speech came out of your mouth,” said Yun Teng, the light of thunder flowing around his body. “In Emperor Qi’s territory, everyone knows the cultivation method of the Zhong n. Zhong Qiu—the current sessor of Zhong n—is notorious for his cultivation of Ultimate Will of Ice. He cultivated in the pure Yin power of the Will of Yin Yang, even via women’s bodies. People all tried to stay away from them. Only those shameless families send good women to the Zhong n as maids in order to seek connection with them. I didn’t expect that you, my father, also became one of them. It is so ridiculous.”
Being a maid was a subordinate job in the world of cultivation. Zhong Qiu of the Zhong n hadn’t married yet but had already had many maids to help him cultivate and gain fame.
Such a way of cultivation should have been looked down upon, but the Zhong n had a lofty status in Heavenly Mandate Realm and never forced others, so powerful ns still often sent their women to the Zhong n. Yun Teng thought such a thing would be far away from them.
Although he knew Yun n had been trying to establish a connection with the Zhong n, he didn’t expect they used such a despicable way.
“Watch your mouth!” Lord Yun rebuked him. “The Zhong n cares for Qianyue’s talent. Zhong Qiu is the strongest warrior in Emperor Qi’s territory. If Qianyue stays with him, in the future, she might have the chance to marry Zhong Qiu. I have also asked them to treat Qianyue nicely. In the future, even if she can’t be his wife, as long as Qianyue performs well, it is not hard to be a mistress. I don’t know what’s wrong with it.”
“You want her to please others to be a mistress,” said Yun Nin, tearing up, utterly broken-hearted, “just because herst name is not Yun?”
“You are despicable, Yun Chong. It was your idea, right? Using my daughter to trade for your son’s future.”
She nced at the people in the crowd, and finally, her crimson eyes fell upon Yun Chong and his son Yun Mo.
Yun Mo was the most talented Saint-ne man of this generation in the Yun n. All the Yun people had been resting their hopes on him, and since Lord Yun used her daughter to trade, the only possible reason was to help Yun Mo.
“You, shut up.”
Yun Mo took an emotionless nce at Yun Ni and said coldly, “All people of the Yun n work for the benefit of the n. You refused to hand the person over for your personal reasons and offended the Zuoqiu n, so you are supposed to be the one to pay for it. I got news from the Imperial City that the Celestial Sword Li n may seek connection with Zuoqiu n via marriage. You must know that only Zhong n is able to fight against the Zuoqiu n, and Zhong Qiu of the Zhong n is the only oneparable with that genius of the Zuoqiu n. You have made mistakes without regard to our n interest once, and now it’s time for you to make a sacrifice. You are acting presumptuously here. I should warn you, don’t forget what yourst name is.”
Ye Futian observed all that happened silently. He now understood everything.
Yun Chong, who had been acting nicely, finally showed his true colors.
For the n interest?
Of course, he was willing to sacrifice other people’s children instead of his own and even his child for the so-called n.
Was Qianyue taken to the Zhong n and traded like goods?
As a maid.
The status of a maid was inferior; she had to listen to every order of the master and belonged to the master physically and mentally.
How dare he say it was for Qianyue?
As Yun Teng had said, they were shameless.
The crueler the cultivationnd was, the more the people there worshipped self-interest.
But he knew arguing was meaningless.
The way of thinking was rooted in their veins. Despicable people wouldn’t think of themselves as despicable; they would believe what they thought was all true. Otherwise, they would not have reached their current cultivation ne while questioning themselves.
“Sir, Ma’am, arguing with them is meaningless. Let’s go to the Imperial City,” Ye Futian said to Yun Teng and Yun Ni.
Qianyue was not sent away for a long time. They could still catch up with her if they hurried.
“Do you have the right to speak here?”
An arrogant voice came. Yun Chong’s son Yun Mo nced at Ye Futian with coldness. “Don’t forget who caused the trouble.”
Yu Sheng saw Yun Mo act like this and released the imposing life force from his body. Ye Futian looked quite calm. Although he had the thought to kill, he was still trying to control his fury.
The speaker was the so-called future of the Yun n; all things the Yun n had done were for him.
“Qianyue has been cultivating with me, so she is like a half-disciple of mine. If anything happens to her, I will not let anyone of you go,” Ye Futian said calmly, but there was a chill hidden under this calmness, which made one feel like the temperature had been lowered.
The lord of the Yun n looked at him. At this moment, he seemed to be able to perceive a special disposition from this True-Self ne young man. His disposition seemed to be the leadership of a person in a lofty position with disdain for the Yun n.
He, as a Nirvana-ne Saint, suddenly perceived a keen sense of threat from this young man.
Yun Chong and Yun Mo took a nce at Ye Futian with surprise. There seemed to be some contempt in his nce. He would not let anyone go?
Who did he think he was?
Ye Futian took one step forward and said to Yun Teng and Yun Ni, “We’d better hurry up. Don’t waste time here.”
“Okay,” Yun Teng nodded and said, trying to restrain his anger. He wanted to leave with Yun Ni. Someone blocked their way, but Lord Yun said, “Just let them go.”
He knew it was unfair to Yun Teng and Yun Ni, but as Yun Chong had said, once the Celestial Sword Li n had a connection with the Zuoqiu n through marriage, they who had a grudge with the Celestial Sword Li n would be in danger.
They must get rid of this situation, and the only way they could find was to get close to the Zhong n.
There must be a sacrifice for the n.
“We should depart, too,” continued Lord Yun. Yun Teng was just an Unblemished Saint, and he was of Nirvana ne. They would reach the Imperial City prior to Yun Teng, and they would inform the Zhong n beforehand.
Yun Teng wouldn’t do anything bad, and he didn’t want anything happened to Yun Teng, either, since he was his heir.
He could judge by Yun Teng’s cultivation ne that Yun Teng couldn’t do anything big even if he reached the Imperial City.
Therge group of warriors of the Yun n started their journey. They drove their divine instruments instead of walking and drew a sh of lightning on the sky dome. They directly surpassed Yun Teng and others and headed into the distance.
Yun Teng and others looked quite embarrassed. ording to the n, they were supposed to depart with other n members and reach the Pce Examination on time.
“Sir Yun, the date of the Pce Examination is approaching, right?” asked Ye Futian. His n was also to keep up with the Yun n warriors.
“Yes,” nodded Yun Teng.
“If so, the Zhong n will also prepare for the Pce Examination, and temporarily, Qianyue should be safe. Sir and Ma’am, you don’t need to worry too much,” said Ye Futian.
Even though Ye Futian said so, Yun Teng and Yun Shang didn’t look rxed at all. How could they not worry about them?
Even though nothing had happened, the situation was still...
Even Yun n didn’t dare to provoke such a giant like Zhong n, not to mention them. Would it work even if they reached the Imperial City?
But now they were not allowed to think that much; they could only go there first.
“Qianyue is my half-disciple. I will handle it when we reach the Imperial City,” continued Ye Futian. Both Yun Teng and Yun Shang looked at him. Ye Futian seemed to be serious, just like when he threatened Lord Yun. He looked very confident.
“Okay,” said Yun Shang, nodding. Qianyue trusted Mr. Ye; she even wanted to be his disciple and follow him to cultivate. Every time after cultivation, Qianyue often spoke highly of Mr. Ye in front of her.
So, unconsciously, she also felt Ye Futian was a very unusual person.
Now, since he said so, the hope was also growing in her heart.
Or maybe, he had the chance to do it. It, at least, was a wisp of hope no matter how bleak it was.
...
In Emperor Qi’s territory, in the solemn Imperial City, above the sky dome, warriors traveled in the air.
Today, all the warriors within Emperor Qi’s territory gathered in the Imperial City and headed to the core of the city.
It was the start date of the Pce Examination of Emperor Qi’s territory. The chosen ones would have the opportunity to cultivate with Emperor Qi and learn his teachings.
Heavenly Mandate Realm was the Ultimate Renhuang Realm; it was also the one among the 3,000 Realms of the Great Law, who honored the martial spirit most. Here, everyone pursued the Law of Martial Arts. Such zeal spread across the endless realm.
People from all directions would not miss this great event.
Even then, many powers had already arrived beforehand.
When the Pce Examination was about to start, Ye Futian and the other three had arrived. However, they didn’t directly head toward the ce where the Pce Examination was held, but rather, they went to visit the Zhong n, with Yun Teng as the lead.
Compared with the Pce Examination, they cared more about Yun Qianyue’s safety. As for the Pce Examination, they did not care for it.
Their speed was extremely fast. They were so worried that something would happen to Yun Qianyue that they moved at the fastest pace.
Finally, when the Pce Examination began, they had reached the Zhong n Residence in the Imperial City!
