"You two, why are you chatting here instead of practicing?"
A man in his early twenties with a dignified face walked over. However, the two Xuanfu disciples who were talking about Yun Che were not afraid of his scolding. They laughed at the same time and said, "Master Sikong, we were wrong. Please don't be angry. We will go back to the training room now."
When this person appeared, Yun Che was slightly startled, because he was someone he knew... Sikong Han's son, Sikong Du, who had helped him a lot in Cangfeng Xuanfu!
Hmm? Instructor Sikong? He said that after graduating from Blue Wind Xuanfu, he would not stay in the Imperial City, but would return to New Moon City to avoid the chaos in the Imperial Family. He really did so and became a mentor in New Moon Xuanfu… Although he was very young, only a few years older than the disciples in Xuanfu, he had now officially entered the Spiritual Profound Realm and was fully qualified to be the mentor of these disciples.
“By the way, Instructor Sikong, I heard that you had contact with Yun Che when you were in Blue Wind Xuanfu. Is that true?”
Sikong Du's eyes moved, and he nodded slightly, saying, "His grandfather and my father were friends, so when he first entered Cangfeng Xuanfu, I took the initiative to find him and tried to give him some help. But later on, I thought that it was childish and ridiculous to self-righteously 'help' a genius like him with my insignificant ability... Okay, you guys should hurry up and practice, this is not the place for you to chat first."
"Yes, Master Sikong."
The two Xuanfu disciples ran away quickly. Sikong Du seemed to have thought of something, and sighed sadly. Just as he was about to take a step, a voice came from his right: "Senior Brother Sikong, long time no see."
Sikong Du glanced to the side, then his whole body moved, staring at Yun Che who was walking towards him, almost unable to believe his eyes: "Yun Che!? You... why are you here?"
“Shh!” Yun Che quickly made a gesture to keep quiet, fearing that Sikong Du’s voice would attract other people. He walked closer and said, “I didn’t expect that Senior Brother Sikong would become the mentor of New Moon Profound Palace. It’s really surprising… I guess, you should be the youngest mentor in the history of New Moon Profound Palace, right?”
“At present, I am just an intern tutor. In part, I also took advantage of my father’s convenience.” Sikong Du looked Yun Che up and down, the surprise in his eyes lingering for a long time. He laughed at himself and said, “But my achievements are nothing compared to yours. You are now making a sensation in the world, your reputation is even greater than that of the four major sects, and you are the pride of Cangfeng Xuanfu. Thinking back to the past, I actually wanted to help you again and again, and even scolded you. I am really ashamed.”
“Senior Brother Sikong is wrong.” Yun Che said sincerely: “When I first arrived at Blue Wind Xuanfu, Senior Brother Sikong gave me a lot of help and guidance. Without Senior Brother Sikong’s help, I would never have been able to settle down in Xuanfu so quickly. I have always kept these firmly in my heart.”
"Hahaha." Sikong Du laughed heartily and praised: "You are not hypocritical, not false, and not arrogant. You are many times better than those geniuses cultivated by the big sects with their background and resources." He glanced around and said: "Let's not say anything extra. You came back here specially, so you must have something important to do, right? I have settled down in Xinyue Xuanfu now. If it is related to Xinyue Xuanfu, I may be able to help."
Yun Che nodded slightly and said, “I came here because I need Elder Sikong’s help with something. I wonder where he is now?”
"My father?" Sikong Du was stunned, then said: "My father went south two days ago and will not be back for at least three days... If it is not something particularly urgent, you can tell me, I may be able to help."
“It’s not a big deal.” Yun Che said without hesitation, “I am preparing to go back to Floating Cloud City to pick up my grandfather and little aunt. The Xiao Clan is cowardly and ruthless, and owes my grandfather and little aunt too much. After I reunite with them, it is impossible for them to continue to stay in the Xiao Clan. The Imperial City is now in a mess, and the various forces and the complex situation there are. I am not at ease to place them there, so…”
Sikong Du had heard something about Yun Che and the Xiao Clan from Sikong Han. He immediately understood and said with a smile, "I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be such a simple matter. This matter does not need to go through my father. I can promise here that as long as Uncle Xiao is willing to come here, from the deputy palace master and mentor to the assistant investigator and the idle minister, Uncle Xiao can choose anyone. No one here will treat him unfairly."
Sikong Du laughed and said, "Besides, with your reputation, if you want to arrange for grandpa to stay in our Xinyue Xuanfu, Lord Zhou and even the Lord of Xinyue City would want to personally carry the sedan chair to welcome him. Maybe Cangfeng Xuanfu will come all the way to snatch him away. You are not seeking our help, but giving Xinyue Xuanfu a huge gift."
Yun Che smiled knowingly and said, “Okay, I’ll have to trouble Senior Brother Sikong to take care of this matter. I will leave now to return to Floating Cloud City.”
"Be careful on the road. I heard that after you disrupted the wedding of Fen Juecheng and Princess Cang Yue and seriously injured Fen Juecheng, the people of Fen Tian Sect are searching for you everywhere. Fen Tian Sect has been a thousand-year-old sect and has never suffered such a great humiliation. Even if you are now famous and have many supporters and admirers, Fen Tian Sect will definitely not let you go. You'd better hide your whereabouts at all times." Si Kong Du reminded.
Yun Che smiled casually: "I understand."
Everyone in the world knows that Yun Che disrupted the wedding of Young Master Fentian, but they don’t know that Yun Che single-handedly killed eight powerful Tianxuan masters sent by Fentian Sect to hunt him down… including the Great Elder. Otherwise, the Blue Wind Empire would have been in an even more agitated commotion because of him.
"By the way, there is something I don't know if it can help you." Sikong Du thought of something and suddenly said, "I went to the outskirts of Xinyue City to send my father back a few days ago, and I vaguely saw a very familiar and annoying face. You also know this person, and it seems that you have had a conflict with him."
“Who?” Yun Che asked in doubt.
“Fen Juechen!”
“Him?” Yun Che was slightly stunned. Fen Juechen, the third son of Fen Duanhun, left Fen Tianmen and entered Cangfeng Xuanfu because of a disagreement with Fen Juebi. He had been ranked first in the inner palace Tianxuan list for a long time. However, on the day he went to Tianjian Villa to participate in the ranking battle, he angered him and was beaten by him! He was also unable to participate in the ranking battle because of this, and there was no news about him since then.
“When I left Cangfeng Xuanfu, I seemed to hear that he returned to Fentian Sect because of Fen Juebi’s death, and I haven’t paid attention to him since then. I took a quick glance that day and it seemed to be him, but he has no reason to be here, and there hasn’t been any unusual movement at Fentian Outer Sect recently… Or maybe I just saw it wrong.” Sikong Du said hesitantly.
Yun Che hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, “I understand. Senior Brother Sikong, thank you for telling me this. We should meet again soon.”
After leaving sound transmission marks with Sikong Du, Yun Che left New Moon Profound Palace, rode on the Snow Phoenix Beast, and headed straight for Floating Cloud City.
——————————————
As the smallest city in the Blue Wind Empire, Floating Cloud City seemed to be forever out of touch with "liveliness" and "prosperity".
When the relatively quiet and old town appeared completely in his sight, Yun Che's heart began to beat uncontrollably.
Having lived here for sixteen years, how could Yun Che not have feelings for this small town that carried all his childhood memories?
The Liuyun City in his sight was getting closer and bigger. Gradually, he could vaguely see the location of the Xiao Clan and the dark green mountain behind the Xiao Clan.
A feeling of homesickness surged in his heart. The figures of the two people emerged in his mind very clearly. The desire to see them immediately was as fierce as a flood. Looking ahead, his eyes were slightly blurred, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "Grandpa, aunt, I'm back... I'm back... I will never let anyone bully you again..."
With his heart surging, he had already arrived above the gate of Floating Cloud City. If he continued to move forward, the Snow Phoenix Beast would undoubtedly cause a huge sensation in the whole city. Yun Che put away the Snow Phoenix Beast, landed outside the city gate, and walked into the familiar, yet slightly unfamiliar Floating Cloud City on foot.
Before I knew it, three years had passed.
Thinking back on these three years, it really seems like a dream.
At the beginning, he left Liuyun City with hatred, vowing to return within three years with enough strength to crush Xiaomen, and to make the entire Xiaomen kneel down and beg grandfather and aunt to leave Siguo Gorge... At that time, although he made a poisonous oath, he knew very well how difficult it was to do this. So he practiced desperately and provoked enemies desperately to improve himself to the greatest extent...
At that time, he would not have thought that three years later, his strength would more than just crush the Xiao Clan... At this moment, the Xiao Clan, with his current level of strength, was not even worthy of him looking at them straight in the eye.
Walking on the land of Floating Cloud City, Yun Che's steps were a little shaky. Although he was extremely anxious, his steps were not that fast. He was thinking about how to hug his grandfather and aunt after seeing them, what to say to them, whether to laugh or cry...
The streets of Liuyun City were not crowded with people, and everyone was walking in a hurry. No one paid attention to him. Even if they passed by him, no one would directly recognize him as the waste and joke who was driven out of Liuyun City three years ago.
Yun Che walked through street after street, getting closer and closer to the Xiao Clan. At this moment, he stopped and looked up at the imposing gate in front of him. On the plaque of the gate were two large golden characters:
Xia Mansion.
This is the home of Xia Qingyue and Xia Yuanba.
As a business family, the Xia Mansion was usually filled with a lively atmosphere with a commercial flavor, but standing in front of the Xia Mansion at this moment, Yun Che could feel a kind of quietness that he had never experienced before. He stood there for a long time, and did not move forward. Instead, he restrained his breath, jumped high, jumped over the wall, and landed quietly in the Xia Mansion courtyard.
