Upon hearing this, the three family heads were greatly alarmed. The Yun family head said in a deep voice, "If the Demon Emperor and Little Demon Queen on the Royal Court hear what the Regent has said, they will probably be unhappy. Moreover, the elders in the Royal Court will probably not approve of what you have said."
"Whether they approve or not, you can ask them yourself, but in my opinion, no one should object," Zuan said calmly. "Now let's talk about your business. Where is that True Demon? Why are you collecting the Four Symbols Stones?"
The expressions of the Wu family head and the Rong family head changed, and they both looked at the Yun family head.
The Yun family patriarch's face darkened: "Your Excellency was originally a human, and by chance you ascended to the position of regent. You should be grateful to the new demon emperor and the little demon queen, but now you are so arrogant and domineering, completely disregarding them, and even the entire royal court. Is this an attempt to rebel?"
Sorenshi couldn't help but retort, "What nonsense are you spouting? It's clearly what you've been doing that's more like treason!"
"Heh, I knew my niece was so stubborn. It turns out she was bewitched by this human. He was so handsome that he blinded her and led the entire Soren family down this path of no return," the Yun family head sneered.
Sorenshi trembled with rage: "What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't!"
"Oh, would you dare swear in the name of the demon god that you are not bewitched by him and do not like him?"
"I..." Soren Shi was speechless for a moment, her face turning red. How could she make such a vow?
She did have a strange fondness for Brother Zu, but it wasn't because of him that the Soren family ended up like this. The key point is that these words are hard to explain.
"See, speechless now?" The Yun family patriarch sneered.
"That's not how it is!" Soren Shi was both embarrassed and anxious. Being next to Zuan made her usually quick-witted mind slow down, and she didn't know how to respond.
Zuan gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't let him provoke you."
She immediately turned to look in the direction of the flying boat, and a divine thought rang in Yun Yuqing's ear: "Yuqing, is this person your second uncle?"
The women were eating melons on the flying boat, and after hearing what the Yun family head had just said, Jiang Luofu couldn't help but complain, "This guy really is a womanizer."
Ji Xiaoxi pouted slightly, feeling a little unhappy, though she didn't know why.
Xie Daoyun's brows also furrowed with worry; how come Brother Zu has so many beautiful women around him?
Just when I think I know everything, a new one pops up out of nowhere.
And they're all so beautiful and outstanding, it puts a lot of pressure on me.
Yun Yuqing was also secretly complaining, but when she heard his words, she immediately knew that he was saving face for her and hadn't even spoken out publicly.
So he said to Xie Daoyun, "Miss Xie, could you please move the flying boat a little further over?"
Xie Daoyun hummed in agreement. In fact, the flying boat had been moving closer to that direction, and she was thinking that she could provide support to Brother Zu at any time.
However, the opponent was too fast, causing the airship to fall behind.
Hearing Yun Yuqing's request, she sped up her pace again.
Once the distance was close, Yun Yuqing lightly touched the ground with her toes and flew to Zu An's side.
Upon seeing her appearance, both the three allied forces outside the city and the members of the Soren family inside the city showed expressions of amazement.
Where did this woman come from? She is so beautiful!
Wait, she seems to have the characteristics of a demon woman...
Others might not recognize her, but the Yun family patriarch's expression changed slightly upon seeing Yun Yuqing, and he recognized her immediately.
Yun Yuqing approached Zu'an and nodded slightly to Princess Soren. Princess Soren blinked, wondering if she was the legendary Yun family member...
"Second Uncle, Brother Zu only showed mercy because of me. I hope you will see the error of your ways," Yun Yuqing said softly, grateful that Zu An hadn't used drastic measures right away.
"She's the daughter of the former patriarch..." At this moment, the Yun family members began to whisper among themselves.
Many people from other families also looked at her curiously. The former head of the Yun family was a legendary figure. It was said that he had two daughters who had been lost and wandered outside. There were all sorts of mysterious rumors, and almost no one had ever seen them with their own eyes.
Especially a few days ago, when various families were choosing a saintess, someone mentioned her again. Unfortunately, she couldn't be found for a while, so they found someone else to replace her.
Fortunately, that person was of excellent appearance, physique, talent, and cultivation, and thus did not disgrace the title of Holy Maiden.
But this woman in front of me is just as good. How come the Yun family's offspring are so good?
"So it's Yuqing. What are you doing here?" The Yun family patriarch's face twitched. He remembered that Yun Yuqing should be in the human capital, helping King Wu seize the human kingdom with the help of the Yun family's experts.
When the other party suddenly appeared here, he immediately had a bad feeling.
Because the spatial elements were previously disordered, communication functions such as the audio-visual mirror were unusable, so he had not yet received news from the capital.
“I was homesick and decided to come back for a visit, but I didn’t expect to encounter something like this,” Yun Yuqing said, pulling Zu An’s hand to introduce him. “Second Uncle, this is Brother Zu. He’s very powerful now. Humans, demons, and even sea creatures listen to him.”
The Yun family patriarch remained expressionless, ignoring her completely, and instead asked, "How are the major events in the capital?"
Yun Yuqing shook her head slightly: "With Brother Zu here, how could anything major happen in the capital?"
The Yun family patriarch's suspicions were confirmed, and he was furious upon hearing this: "As expected, daughters are not meant to stay at home once they grow up. It must be because you betrayed the family and had an affair with outsiders that our grand plan failed."
