“Can we enter the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley normally?” Yun Che asked.
“Of course not.” Yun Xiao shook his head decisively. “Every time you enter, the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley will be closed by the Illusionary Demon Royal Family, and then they will use five years to regenerate resources. Although five years is a short time, with the terrifyingly dense flames and thundercloud power in the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley, all kinds of spirits and treasures are bred very quickly. Normally, the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley is never allowed to enter, not even the Illusionary Demon Royal Family themselves.”
“Flames… thunderclouds… There is the Golden Crow’s inheritance there, so it’s normal for there to be flames. Why is there also thunder and lightning?” Yun Che asked in confusion.
“That, I don’t know either. It seems that this has always been an unsolved mystery of the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley. My father said that there might be a powerful lightning-type profound beast or lightning-type treasure somewhere in the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley, but it’s just a guess.”
Yun Che nodded, then raised his head and looked towards the north of Monster King City. Although he did not know where the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley was, he possessed the power of the Phoenix and was far more sensitive to flame profound energy than ordinary people. Somewhere north of Monster King City, he vaguely sensed the presence of a flame aura. Perhaps, that was the location of the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley.
The Profound Sky Continent is divided into seven countries. The Four Sacred Lands are beyond the seven countries. They call themselves guardians, but they are transcendental beings like punishers. The Illusory Demon Realm is larger than the Profound Sky Continent, but it is not divided into different regions. Instead, it is centered on the Illusory Demon Royal Family. In terms of strength, the Demon King City where Yun Che is currently located is comparable to the Four Sacred Lands of the Profound Sky Continent.
There is no doubt that once you enter the Demon King City, the aura of profound energy becomes extremely strong. The thrones that are extremely rare in the Seven Profound Sky Kingdoms are everywhere here, and even the extremely rare Overlords are also present in large numbers. Yun Che flew all the way to the Yun family, and on the way he sensed the auras of at least twenty Overlords.
The power of the Demon King City is so huge that it can be seen from this.
However, the battle between the Illusionary Demon Clan and the Profound Sky Continent ended with the Illusionary Demon Clan suffering a great loss, and there was no action of revenge... It seems that in terms of comprehensive strength, the Illusionary Demon Clan is still somewhat inferior to the Four Holy Lands.
"We're almost there. That big door in front that's flashing purple light is it." Yun Xiao pointed downward and forward.
The Yun family was not as big as he had imagined. The size of its family residence was not as big as the Phoenix Sect, and it was even smaller than the Burning Heaven Sect that he had destroyed. This was beyond Yun Che's expectations. But thinking that his biological grandfather and biological father seemed to have only one son, he subconsciously thought... Could it be that Xuan Gang's existence was jealous of the heavens and his ability to reproduce was restricted?
Arriving above the main gate of the Yun family, Yun Che slowly descended with Yun Xiao. Looking at the door of the house that was so close and so familiar, Yun Che saw a flash of hesitation in Yun Xiao's eyes.
"Brother Yun, that..." Yun Xiao said hesitantly, "Although I am the young master of the Yun family in name, but... but most people don't seem to like me very much, so if someone is rude, Brother Yun doesn't need to be tolerant."
Yun Che’s heart moved slightly, and he nodded: “Yes, I understand. Don’t worry, my main purpose of coming here is to pay my respects to the head of the Yun family. The rest is irrelevant.”
Yun Che followed Yun Xiao into the main gate of the Yun Family. The moment he stepped into the main gate, Yun Che's heart surged uncontrollably. The land under his feet, the air in his nose, and everything in front of him were all so unfamiliar. This was the first time he had set foot in this place in his life, but this was also where his real family was. The blood that flowed in his body came from here. His biological father, biological mother... were also here...
I...really...came back to this place...
Yun Xiao was seriously injured, but he obviously didn't want the family to find out about his injury, so he tried to calm down and straighten his back when he entered the gate. But just as he entered the gate, a young man who looked to be in his twenties or thirties came towards him. When he saw Yun Xiao, he immediately showed an annoying smile on his face: "Oh! Isn't this the eldest young master Yun Xiao? Why are you back so early today? Did you not have fun outside or what happened... Oh?"
The young man immediately noticed Yun Xiao's injury. His eyes narrowed, and then he laughed with gloating: "Hahahaha! I thought, you're injured! Which young master did you spar with? Tsk tsk, you are the nominal young master of our Yun family after all. You lost the sparring with others and got injured like this. It's such a disgrace to our Yun family."
The words this person said to Yun Xiao were particularly vicious and harsh. He called him "Young Patriarch" but didn't take him seriously at all. Even his eyes were full of mockery and sarcasm. Yun Xiao clenched his hands, but he forced himself to ignore him and said directly to Yun Che: "Brother Yun, don't pay attention to him. I will take you to see my father."
After saying that, Yun Xiao pulled Yun Che up and walked around the young man. He had endured too many similar experiences, and he had almost become accustomed to them and numb to them. Over the years, what he had practiced the most was endurance... Even if it wasn't for himself, it was for his father and mother.
Yun Xiao left, but the young man refused to give in. He turned sideways and sneered with contempt: "Hey! Master, where did you find this lover? She's so tender and delicate, but even I want to touch her. It seems that Master finally realized that he can't eat the swan meat of the elves, so he has changed to playing with a gigolo... Having said that, instead of daydreaming about eating swan meat, it's much more practical to keep a gigolo, hahahaha!"
Yun Che's steps suddenly stopped... This was no longer a mockery, but an extremely vicious humiliation. Listening to Yun Xiao's story and the attitude of those people from the Tianxia family towards him, Yun Che knew that although Yun Xiao had the title of Young Patriarch, his life in the family was not so easy, but he did not expect it to be so bad.
Just because Yun Xiao could endure it doesn’t mean he could endure it! If he could just endure it like this, he wouldn’t be Yun Che!
Just as Yun Che was about to turn around, a clear and rebuking voice came from behind: “Yun Hao! How could you be so rude to the Young Patriarch! Why don’t you apologize to the Young Patriarch quickly!”
Yun Che shifted his attention and looked towards the source of the sound. A young man in white clothes that looked like clouds was walking towards this side. He looked to be about 25 years old, with a heroic look between his eyebrows. Although he was young, the aura of profound energy on his body was extremely strong, at least ten times stronger than that of Yun Xiao, who was a half-step overlord.
"Ah...Brother Xinyue!"
Seeing this person, Yun Hao changed his ugly expression when facing Yun Xiao before, and greeted him like a pug: "Brother Xinyue, are you going out? I rarely see you going out at this time."
"Humph!" The young man stared at him coldly and scolded: "Didn't you hear what I just said! Why don't you apologize to the young master of the family!"
Yun Hao shrank his neck, but he didn't dare to disobey. He faced Yun Xiao, gritted his teeth, and was about to bow his head. Yun Xiao waved his hand and said, "Brother Xinyue, no need. Yun Hao was just joking. It's okay."
"Yes, yes, I was just joking." Yun Hao nodded quickly with a smile, then secretly glanced at Yun Xiao with an expression that said, "You've got to know your place."
Yun Che: “…”
“Humph!” The young man snorted again: “The young master is kind and generous, but you blind people take advantage of this to bully us every day… If I see you again, I will never let you off easily!”
"Brother Xinyue has taught me a lesson. I will never dare to do it again next time." Yun Hao agreed with a grin, then stepped behind the man, but gave Yun Xiao a sneering look.
The young man's expression eased, and he smiled gently, saying to Yun Xiao: "Brother Yun Xiao, next time someone bullies you, you don't have to swallow your anger... Oh? From the look of you... Are you injured? What happened?"
Yun Xiao quickly shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's not a serious injury, it will heal in ten days or half a month, Brother Xinyue, don't worry about it."
The young man did not continue to ask, and said with concern: "You don't look like you have a minor injury, go and get some treatment... By the way," he turned his gaze to Yun Che: "Who is this?"
“This is a friend I just met, Yun Che.” Yun Xiao introduced him. When facing the man in front of him, his expression was obviously very relaxed: “Brother Yun, this is my clan brother, Yun Xinyue.”
Yun Che nodded and greeted him.
“Oh? This brother’s last name is also Yun? That’s such a coincidence.” Yun Xinyue clasped her fists towards Yun Che and said, “It’s rare to see Brother Yun Xiao bring friends back. I’m sure Brother Yun Che must be a dragon among men. When I have time someday, I hope to make friends with him.”
"That's right, Brother Yun is very powerful!" Yun Xiao said with pride. He saw a few people coming towards this side from a distance, and hurriedly said, "Brother Xinyue, I have something to see my father, so I'll excuse myself for a while. Thank you, Brother Xinyue, for helping me out again."
"Go ahead." Yun Xinyue smiled faintly.
Yun Che glanced at Yun Xinyue calmly, turned around, and followed Yun Xiao to where his father was. After he took a few steps, a flash of cold light suddenly swept past him.
Yun Che's brows twitched slightly, but his steps did not stop.
Murderous!!
This is something Yun Che would never mistake!
And this murderous aura was not directed at Yun Xiao... but at himself!
This was clearly the first time that he entered the Yun family. Before this, he had never seen anyone from the Yun family except Yun Xiao. He had never even been to the Demon King City, and the number of people he knew was no more than a handful. Why would someone have murderous intentions towards him?
I just approached the Demon King City today, and it seems that I have only done this one thing...
Then, there is only one possibility!
“Yun Xiao, who is that Yun Xinyue? His prestige seems to be much higher than that of you, the young patriarch.” Yun Che suddenly asked.
Yun Xiao scratched his head and smiled helplessly and awkwardly: "Brother Xinyue's prestige is of course much higher than mine. His father is the seventh elder Yun Waitian, the strongest among the thirty-six elders of the Yun family, and he himself is also the strongest of this generation of the Yun family. He is only twenty-seven years old this year, but he is already at the fourth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm, and has awakened the only blue Profound Gang of this generation. With the addition of the Profound Gang, he has never had an opponent at the same level, and is even capable of fighting against the fifth level of the Tyrant Profound Realm. He is called the hope of the Yun family's rise, and it is said in the family that he is the most qualified to become the next..."
At this point, Yun Xiao’s voice suddenly stopped, but Yun Che was able to guess what he hadn’t said.
“You seem to have a good impression of him?” Yun Che asked a seemingly irrelevant question.
"Yes." Yun Xiao nodded: "Brother Xinyue is not only extremely talented, but also has a very gentle temperament. Because of some bloodline issues, I am often criticized, ridiculed, and bullied, but Brother Xinyue never laughs at me. Instead, he often helps me out and even teaches those who bully me a lesson. I am always grateful to him."
“Because of some bloodline issues? What do you mean?” Yun Che asked with a sidelong glance.
Yun Xiao accidentally let the cat out of the bag and showed a little panic on his face: "No...nothing, just some small things."
Yun Che did not ask further questions, but instead asked: “Do you also think that he is very suitable to become the next head of the Yun family?”
Yun Xiao had never expected Yun Che to ask such a straightforward question. He was stunned for a moment, then gave a bitter smile: “Although I have the title of Young Patriarch, you can see that this title is just a joke on me. In terms of strength, credibility, and most importantly… In short, I know that I will never be the Patriarch in the future. If it is Brother Xinyue, I think I will also support him. Maybe Brother Xinyue is really the hope for our Yun Family to rise again.”
Yun Che looked at him deeply and said with a smile: “This Yun Xinyue is really not simple.”
“Of course it’s not simple! He is the undisputed number one in this generation of our Yun family. Even the people from the Phantom Demon Royal Family are particularly optimistic about him.” Yun Xiao said with some pride.
However, he didn't know that the "not simple" in Yun Che's words and the "not simple" in his mouth were two completely different concepts.
