"Yun Xiao? He actually took the initiative to go to the Holy Cloud Platform? This is really rare."
"Did this guy take the wrong medicine today?"
"Hey, it's obvious that he knows that the title of 'young patriarch' is no longer possible, so he came here to show off his power and save some face."
"Yun Qiu was defeated so easily? This Yun Xiao usually doesn't show off his abilities, but how could he be so strong?"
"Of course, this is because Yun Qiu had defeated several challengers before, and his Xuanli was too much! Although Yun Xiao's Xuanli is a little higher, he does not have Xuan Gang. Under normal conditions, how could he defeat Yun Qiu so easily?"
The disciples of the Yun family were surprised and extremely upset when Yun Qiu was easily defeated by Yun Xiao. Because in their eyes, Yun Xiao was not a member of the same family at all, but the "bastard picked up from the Tianxuan Continent" known to the entire Illusory Demon Realm. In the past, Yun Xiao never participated in similar battles, but this time Yun Xiao took the initiative to step forward and defeated Yun Qiu... In their opinion, it was basically the same as one of their own being defeated by an outsider, which of course was unpleasant.
"He used to be known as the Young Master of the Family. After today, let's see who can protect him. It's only a matter of time before he is kicked out of our family. He actually dares to come out and steal the limelight at this time... Watch me knock him down!"
Immediately, a Yun family disciple jumped up, stood in front of Yun Xiao, and said proudly: "Come, let me spar with you!"
As soon as the voice fell, his body moved suddenly, sweeping across the sky with phantoms. Dozens of lightning and sword beams intertwined to form a purple sword net, covering Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao's face was solemn. He took a half step back and swung the Thunder Sword. Seven lightning blades whizzed out. The sound of them breaking through the air was like a knife cutting glass, extremely harsh.
Bang bang bang bang...
A series of sounds like crystal shattering rang out chaotically, and the two men fought each other in the shadow of lightning and swords. The Holy Cloud Platform, which was dozens of feet long, was suddenly covered by a curtain of lightning.
"The Great Elder and his men are here!"
When the two people on the stage were fighting, a shout was heard. Yun Che looked over and saw dozens of figures slowly flying over from different directions. Each of them was releasing an extremely powerful aura. They did not deliberately open their own profound energy aura, but because of their appearance, the surrounding space was almost completely solidified.
Any one of these people is an extremely powerful being who terrorizes the Fantasy Demon Realm.
“They are the thirty-six core elders of our Yun Family Elders Council.” Yun Qinghong said to Yun Che calmly, “Among the thirty-six core elders, the strongest one is the Great Elder Yun Waitian. He is the head of the Elders Council. For the past twenty years, he has basically held the highest voice.”
Yun Che nodded slowly. He also understood that the reason why Yun Waitian was the head of the elders was not just because he was the strongest and the oldest, but also because of another very important reason - his youngest son, Yun Xinyue, who was known as the hope for the rise of the Yun family!
Without Yun Qinghong telling him, he could tell at a glance who was the Great Elder Yun Waitian... because he came with Yun Xinyue.
The thirty-six elders took their seats one by one. Some of them nodded to Yun Qinghong, some ignored him, and some had slightly complicated expressions. As members of the Elders' Council, they knew best what would happen today... because what happened today was a decision they made together.
An elder who ranked relatively low said in a low voice as he passed by Yun Qinghong: “Qinghong, I believe you should have guessed the real purpose of today’s clan competition… The vast majority of elders support Yun Wai Tian, even the three great elders… Although we are unwilling, we are powerless to change anything… Alas.”
Yun Qinghong smiled at him and said only five words casually: "You don't have to mind."
The elder shook his head, stopped talking, and sat down in his elder seat with a complicated expression.
Yun Waitian was already seated in the middle of the elders' seats, and Yun Xinyue was sitting to his right. A junior was actually sitting at the same table with the elders, and none of the other elders thought it was inappropriate, which showed how much the Yun family valued and respected Yun Xinyue.
The two people on the Holy Cloud Stage were fighting, and after a brief stalemate, Yun Xiao had gradually gained the upper hand. Seeing Yun Xiao fighting with the Yun Family disciples on the Holy Cloud Stage, the elders all showed surprise and complicated expressions. Yun Waitian glanced at Yun Xiao on the stage, then glanced at Yun Qinghong, snorted with disdain, and then looked at his son, his face suddenly full of pride.
More than 20 years ago, Yun Qinghong was the most favored son of the Demon King City, and the youngest emperor in the history of the Illusory Demon Realm. His halo was too dazzling, and although Yun Waitian was more than 50 years older than him, he could only look up to him... Unexpectedly, fate took a turn, and the person he could only look up to and envy became a useless person, and his son was also known as a "bastard". Thinking of his current status in the Yun family and his son, the feeling of superiority was simply too comfortable.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
A hearty laugh suddenly sounded, and a tall figure appeared out of nowhere in the sky. A slightly ostentatious voice came out, "Mu Yubai from the Mu family has come to attend the Yun family's grand event!"
No one in the Yun family was surprised that Mu Yubai would come. Everyone knew the purpose of his coming and was prepared for it. However, when they saw that only Mu Yubai was present, the elders secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They all stood up. In a few decades, Mu Yubai would become the head of the Mu family, with a status higher than everyone else present. Naturally, they would stand up to greet him. Yun Waitian stood up and bowed, saying, "Young Master Mu is here, so we are naturally very welcome. Please take a seat."
"No need." Mu Yubai waved his hand: "I can just find a place to sit."
After he finished speaking, he shook his body and instantly moved to Yun Qinghong's side, then sat down with his arms and legs spread out, no longer paying attention to anyone else.
“Senior Mu.” Yun Che greeted him.
Mu Yubai nodded, looked at Yun Xiao who had already gained the upper hand on the stage, and said while stroking his chin: "Tsk, this kid is not bad."
"Brother, are you alone? I thought dad would come too." Mu Yurou said in a low voice.
Mu Yubai's face became a little serious, and he lowered his voice and said, "Dad was going to come, but I stopped him." At this point, he suddenly looked in the direction of Yunwaitian, and his voice became low, "Dad and I found some incredible clues while investigating the attack on Xiao'er and the girl from the Tianxia family... Some people from the Huanyao Royal Family may come to today's clan competition."
Yun Qinghong’s brows jumped suddenly.
"The Illusionary Demon Royal Family?" Mu Yurou's eyebrows suddenly frowned: "Brother, what did you find out? Who was the person who wanted to attack Xiao Er that day?"
Mu Yubai shook his head slightly: "We only found some traces, but we can't be sure, and there is no substantial evidence... Let's wait and see. If the situation gets out of control, humph, you don't have to take the position of the head of the Yun family. It will be much more comfortable for you and your family to come to our Mu family than to stay in this shitty place!"
Mu Yurou glanced at Yun Qinghong and sighed silently. Mu Yubai could say it so lightly, but she knew that Yun Qinghong would never be willing to leave the Yun family. After all, the Yun family carried all the life, hard work, pride, and glory of his patriarch's lineage. How could he be willing to leave the Yun family and give the position of patriarch to other Yun bloodlines?
At this time, a peaceful voice came from a distance:
"The world is invincible, come and visit."
In just eight words, the first word seemed to be ten miles away, while the last word seemed to be right next to the ear. The powerful mysterious power contained in the voice moved all the thirty-six elders present, and this voice, as well as the name that was announced, made them all stand up.
Two figures appeared in the air at some point. Yun Che recognized the man on the left. He was Number One Under Heaven! On his right stood a middle-aged man with a gentle face and a sweet smile. He was standing one body length ahead of Number One Under Heaven. The “Invincible Under Heaven” he had called out earlier was his name.
“Tianxia Wudi? Why is he here?” Yun Qinghong showed surprise on his face. Then, he looked at Yun Che thoughtfully, but did not ask him anything. Instead, he explained directly: “Of these two people, you already know Tianxia No.1. The one next to him is Tianxia Wudi. He is about the same age as me. He is the younger brother of Tianxia Xiongtu, the patriarch of the elves. He is also the person of the same generation of the elves whose strength and status are second only to Tianxia Xiongtu.”
“Oh!” Yun Che nodded slowly. He had sent a message to Number One Under Heaven two months ago, asking him to attend the Yun Family Competition. Unexpectedly, not only did he come, he also brought such a heavyweight figure with him!
Obviously, Number One Under Heaven had guessed his purpose. He had always been grateful to Yun Che for saving his sister. His status, identity, and character determined that he would never be willing to owe anyone a favor, so not only did he come, he also gave Yun Che enough of a surprise.
However, the names that these guys from Tianxia Family came up with are more domineering than the other!
If only the number one in the world came, the elders would just greet him casually. After all, although the number one in the world is the young master, he is still a junior. But if the invincible in the world came, it would be different. Yun Wai Tian quickly soared into the air and greeted him attentively, "So it's Elder Wudi and the young master of the world."
"Haha," Tianxia Wudi smiled gently. His gentle demeanor without any aura was really not in line with his name "Tianxia Wudi": "I came here uninvited, I hope you don't mind."
"That's not right, Elder Wudi. We in the Yun family can't wait to welcome you two. Please take a seat."
The two of them sat down, and Number One Under Heaven and Yun Che's eyes met, and they nodded slightly to each other. One greeted with his eyes, and the other expressed gratitude with his eyes.
The Yun family's clan competition this time was destined to be unusual. No. 1 Under Heaven and Invincible Under Heaven had just sat down when another voice came from above: "Tsk tsk, it seems that your Yun family has quite a few distinguished guests this time. This is much more lively than I expected."
This voice was arrogant and sharp, making people feel uncomfortable all over. The voice came with a breath, and the atmosphere suddenly stagnated. Yun Che clearly saw that Yun Qinghong and Mu Yubai's faces changed slightly at the same time.
A middle-aged man slowly descended from the sky. He was dressed in green, and his facial features were indescribably strange. His face was faintly green, and what surprised Yun Che the most was his eyes, which were actually long and narrow triangles. When his eyes met Yun Che's, he actually felt a chill all over his body... However, that was definitely not the aura of the ice-type profound art, but a kind of... chilling and chilling aura.
It was normal for the Mu family to come. Although the elders of the Yun family were slightly surprised that a clan from the world would come, they didn't think much of it. But the appearance of this person surprised all the elders of the Yun family. He slowly fell from the sky and said in a hoarse and unpleasant voice: "I am here uninvited again this time. Please don't be surprised, friends of the Yun family."
Yun Waitian stood up to greet him: "Brother Helian, that's not right. Since you are here, you are naturally an honored guest... Please take a seat."
"Helian Peng, what are you doing here?" At this time, an unfriendly voice sounded, and the person who made the voice was Mu Yubai.
"Heh." Helian Peng narrowed his long triangular eyes and sneered lightly: "Mu Yubai, you can come uninvited, why can't I? After all, the Yun family was the overlord back then. Of course, I am very interested in watching this clan competition."
The word "back then" was deliberately emphasized. Mu Yubai snorted coldly and said nothing more, but his brows were slightly furrowed... because in his opinion, the appearance of this person was by no means ordinary.
“Helian Peng is the third person in the generation of the Helian family’s patriarch.” Yun Qinghong explained to Yun Che, “Their true form is a nine-headed demon snake. They have extremely high physical talents and are extremely powerful. However, for thousands of years, they have been suppressed by our Yun family and have always been the second-in-command. However, after the dramatic changes in our Yun family, they are now the leaders of the twelve guardian families.”
The Helian family... the nine-headed demon snake clan...
Yun Che stared at the man named Helian Peng silently and memorized his appearance.
