Mu Yubai is undoubtedly a proud man. This is the first time in his life that he wants to become sworn brothers with someone. He is even willing to lower his generation and become sworn brothers with a man who is only in his early twenties. If he is rejected in the end, it would be like losing all the face he has earned in his life.
So, now that it has been spoken, I must pay homage to it! I must pay homage to it no matter what!
Yun Qinghong, Mu Yurou, and Xiao Yun all looked extremely strange. A month ago, Mu Yubai wanted to become sworn brothers with Yun Che. Although they felt that the age was not appropriate, it seemed that there was no big problem in principle. But now, knowing that Mu Yubai was Yun Che's uncle, if they really became sworn brothers... that would be a lot of fun.
Yun Che smiled bitterly and said, “This… Of course it’s not that I don’t want to. How about this, after today’s ceremony, if Senior is still willing to become sworn brothers with me, I will definitely not refuse.”
“Okay!!” The moment Yun Che’s voice fell, Mu Yubai roared, as if he was afraid that Yun Che would say something to regret. He said heroically: “A man of honor once he speaks, he can’t take it back! I, Mu Yubai, can’t take back my words even if ten thousand horses are fighting! Tomorrow we will become sworn brothers, and whoever regrets it is a coward! You are all witnesses!”
"This..." Xiao Yun scratched his scalp, his eyes kept dodging, not daring to look at Mu Yubai.
"Hehehe..." Yun Qinghong laughed in a very strange and ambiguous way.
Mu Yurou's phoenix eyes narrowed into two long slits as she smiled: "Brother, you said this yourself, none of us forced you."
The strange expressions of the three people made Mu Yubai feel uneasy. He stared at them and asked vigilantly: "What's wrong with you? Are you hiding something from me?"
"Hurry up and take your seats. The ceremony will begin in half an hour. Today is not the time for you to make trouble. You have lived for almost two hundred years and still haven't given me a grandson. And you still call yourself a real man. Bah." Mu Feiyan said with disdain and strode towards the Mu family's seat.
When the word "grandson" was mentioned, his three sons immediately became depressed and followed the old man in disgrace, not daring to say a word. Mu Feiyan had three sons and one daughter. His daughter married Yun Qinghong, but his three sons had not yet married, and there was no sign of a grandson. Eight or nine out of ten times the temper of the old man at home was because of this, which was why he had not yet passed the position of the head of the family to Mu Yubai.
It can only be blamed on his three sons who are afraid of getting married. They are usually carefree and carefree, but they shrink their necks when they think about being controlled by women after marriage. From the fact that Mu Yubai insisted on becoming sworn brothers with Yun Che, we can see how "carefree" he is. As for the important task of letting Grandpa Mu hold his grandson, the three brothers pushed it to me and I pushed it to you. There were several times when Grandpa Mu was really angry and beat the three brothers one by one... Even so, none of these three guys got married.
"The whole clan of the world has arrived!"
The Tianxia Family was led by the patriarch Tianxia Xiongtu. In the team, Yun Che saw Tianxia Wudi. A little later, Yun Che saw Tianxia Number One, as well as Tianxia Number Three and Tianxia Number Six whom he had seen three months ago. The elves standing side by side with them should be Tianxia Number Two, Tianxia Number Four, and Tianxia Number Five. The elf girl who surrounded them in the middle made Xiao Yun’s butt “snap” off his seat, and he excitedly exclaimed: “Seventh sister… It’s Seventh sister!”
As a clan of elves, the Tianxia family not only has striking long-eared cicada wings, but also carries a clear natural aura. When they arrive, the entire hall is like a breeze blowing through, making people feel refreshed.
Seeing the seats where the Yun family was seated, Tianxia Xiongtu was obviously stunned for a moment, but when he passed by the Yun family seats, he nodded to Yun Qinghong but didn't say much. Tianxia Digit also nodded to Yun Che.
Number Seven Under Heaven secretly glanced at Xiao Yun, lowered her head and bit her lips hard. It had been more than three months since they last met, and in these three months, the thing she felt most deeply was that the chance of being with Xiao Yun was getting slimmer and slimmer...
The seats of the Tianxia family are next to the Mu family.
Xiao Yun's eyes were fixed on Number Seven Under Heaven until she sat down. After he withdrew his gaze, his eyes were dazed, his soul was absent-minded, and his face was covered with a layer of deep sadness. Yun Che took a look at his expression and sighed silently in his heart. He knew that Xiao Yun's eyes were sad... He was not the son of Yun Qinghong and his wife, and it was a fact that he was from the Profound Sky Continent. This made the barrier between him and Number Seven Under Heaven suddenly thicker by countless times.
Comparing the two people's life experiences... they are from two completely different worlds.
“Discouraged?” Yun Che asked with a half-smile.
Xiao Yun shook his head: "I absolutely don't want to give up my seventh sister, but now... now... I really don't know what to do."
“Then don’t think about it for now. A turning point will always come unexpectedly.” Yun Che said with a smile, and then changed the subject: “Xiao Yun, the twelve families are almost here. Please introduce them to me briefly, especially the leaders of each family, and the strongest of the younger generation.”
"Oh, OK!" Xiao Yun nodded. As the top existences in the Illusory Demon Realm, the leaders of the Twelve Families and the brightest rising stars of the younger generation under the age of thirty-five were naturally well-known. Xiao Yun had been the young master of the Yun Family for more than twenty years, so he was naturally familiar with these people.
He pointed to a seat opposite him with the word "Xiao" engraved on the front, and said, "That's the Xiao family of the Twelve Families. Their true form is Xiaokong Pegasus, and their family profound skill can control the strong wind. The family head is called Xiao Xifeng, and it is said that his cultivation is at the second level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. The strongest of the younger generation, who is also the young family head, is the man in blue clothes sitting next to him... His name is Xiao Donglai, and he is two years younger than Yun Xinyue, only twenty-five this year, but his profound strength is the same as Yun Xinyue's, at the fourth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm."
Yun Che nodded and wrote down every word.
Xiao Yun pointed to the seat on the right side of the Xiao family. In front of the seat, the word "Jiufang" was engraved: "That's the Jiufang family, also a demon family. Their true form is a nine-headed dragon. The family's profound skill is an extremely terrifying poison skill. They have a deep connection with the Helian family, and almost every generation is related by marriage. The current head of the family is Jiufang Kui. The person next to him is the young head of the family, Jiufang Yu. He is thirty years old this year, and his profound strength seems to be at the fourth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm... But I heard that he was born with an extremely rare dragon poison, a 'Nine Emperor Poison Body' that only appears once every four thousand years in the Jiufang family. If someone is poisoned by his poison, it is said that even a low-level emperor will find it difficult to resolve it."
"The Lin family is a mixed family of humans and demons. The head of the family is Lin Guiyan. The strongest of the younger generation is the one sitting right behind Lin Guiyan... Lin Hanchuan, 29 years old, level 5 of Tyrant Profound Realm."
"The Nangong family, a human race, is known as the strongest sword force in the Illusory Demon Realm, using twin swords as weapons. The head of the family, Nangong Zhi, the strongest of the younger generation, is the youngest son of the Eighth Elder - Nangong Yan."
"The Chiyang clan has arrived!"
A loud shout interrupted Xiao Yun's narration. Yun Che turned his gaze towards the main gate and saw a fiery red family team walking in, with a scorching wave of air also coming towards them.
The people of this family were all dressed in red, and even their hair and eyebrows were fiery red. As they walked in, the temperature of the air suddenly rose. Some people who came from remote areas and had weaker mystical powers were caught off guard when they were approached, and their skin was burned. They felt a sharp pain and had to hurriedly circulate their mystical powers to barely relieve the pain.
"This is the Chiyang family. Their true form is the Chiyang Fire Dragon! They are a true dragon family with extremely strong power. In terms of comprehensive strength, they are currently second only to the Helian family and the Su family. They are born with the bodies of Chiyang dragons, and their speed in cultivating profound strength and profound skills far exceeds that of humans and ordinary monsters. The current head of the Chiyang family is Chiyang Bailie, and the strongest of the younger generation... um, is that woman."
Following the direction Xiao Yun pointed, Yun Che saw a young woman standing next to Chiyang Bailie. She had a pretty face, a tall figure, and flamboyant red hair. Her wheat-colored skin was faintly tinged with bright red.
What caught people's attention most was her attire. She wore a fiery red tight leather jacket on her upper body. The jacket was very short, covering her towering chest, revealing her flat belly and navel. She wore an even shorter pair of tight waisted red leather pants on her lower body, which barely covered her buttocks. Her two slender thighs were completely exposed. Wrapped around the upper part of the leather pants was a fiery red whip. The whip was constantly flashing with restless flame patterns... It was obvious at a glance that it was no ordinary weapon.
This wild and hot outfit immediately attracted the attention of countless young men, who looked at her with shining eyes and drooling mouths. However, the girl was obviously used to such looks, and she held her head high, with nobility and arrogance clearly written on her face.
“What she wears is really daring. If my wife dares to wear this, I will definitely divorce her.” Yun Che said with a crooked mouth, and then immediately added: “Oh, if you only let me see it, that’s another matter.”
"Well, her name is Chi Yang Yan Wu. It is said that her affinity for fire is almost on par with that of the ancient Chi Yang Patriarch. Her talent is very terrifying. She is only 24 years old this year, but she has already reached the peak of the fifth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm. It is said that she is about to break through to the sixth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm. However..." Xiao Yun lowered his voice: "This Chi Yang Yan Wu is famous for her arrogance in the Monster King City. It is said that no man has ever been able to make her look at him straight in the eye."
“For a family of this level as the Twelve Guardians, it is quite unusual that the strongest person of the younger generation is actually a woman.” Yun Che said, holding up his chin.
"It's not just the Chiyang clan whose strongest young people are women." Xiao Yun pointed to the family with the word "Bai" engraved in front of him: "That's the Bai clan, also a demon clan, whose true form is a cloud-winged white tiger. The clan leader is named Bai Yi, and the strongest young person of their generation is the woman on his left hand side - Bai Jie, who is thirty years old this year and is at the fifth level of Tyrant Profound Realm."
“Oh.” Yun Che nodded slowly, then frowned: “Well, Bai Jie?”
"Eh? Does big brother know her?" Xiao Yun asked in surprise.
“No, no, I definitely don’t know him.” Yun Che shook his head: “This should be the first time I’ve heard this name, but why do I always feel that it sounds familiar… Never mind, let’s talk about the Helian clan.”
