Recalling his route over the past few days, Qin Xiao's mind formed straight lines.
However, coincidentally, the cloud beast moved all over the country, and all its routes, when connected, avoided the same location.
A guess arose in Qin Xiao's mind.
If the other party was really running away in a panic, why would they deliberately avoid a certain place?
As long as you go in the opposite direction from Qin Xiao, that should be fine. Even if they chase you, you should use the shortest escape route to escape in the opposite direction.
However, this cloud beast consciously avoided this location, even taking a detour if it could pass by in a straight line.
This place...Kyoto...
A guess arose in Qin Xiao's mind.
It seems some people have their own plans, but they just don't know how they know they don't have enough time.
Perhaps Yunyun and Youyou accidentally let it slip, or perhaps it was from their eager attitude.
Qin Xiao made a decision in his heart, "Jingjing, thank you for your trouble. We'll head to Kyoto tonight."
Everyone was stunned when he said that.
Bai Ling asked curiously, "Master, aren't you going to take a rest? You've been busy for days."
Qin Xiao shook his head. "Never mind, I have a guess now, and I need to verify it."
Based on his previous words, Ilya understood. "Master, do you think there's something wrong with this pursuit?"
Qin Xiao did not hide anything and put the earring in his hand into the demon realm space.
"Yes, this matter seems a bit strange now. We've been running around like this and haven't even found a trace of it. It's really strange."
To be honest, I don't believe it at all. The other person is faster than Youyou, and doesn't seem to have expended any energy at all.
Yoyo was exhausted after chasing him for several days, but the other person seemed to have no energy at all and was always moving.
At such a high speed, why would it need to run? It might as well just let Qin Xiao realize that he can't catch it and give up sooner.
Yunyun nestled beside him, peeling lamb leg meat for him.
"Is it that girl Yunyue?" Yunyun asked, somewhat surprised.
This young lady, when she's around, you'd never guess she's so cunning.
"But what is her motive? Is it to protect this cloud beast?"
Qin Xiao shook his head. "I don't know, but she's definitely suspicious. Besides, she gave us this earring. I suspect that the cloud beast sensed our location through this earring."
After discussing it for a while, the group realized that while they were chasing each other, they hadn't noticed anything strange, but once they stopped, they definitely felt something inexplicably odd.
Soon, Qin Xiao felt a little annoyed. He ate something quickly, and the group packed up and set off again.
Kyoto wasn't too far from where they were now. They set off quite late, and Jingjing wasn't moving very fast. By the time they arrived in Kyoto, it was already getting light.
It was still early when Qin Xiao and his group flew into the capital without attracting much attention.
The capital city, the territory of the Yun clan.
This is where Yunyue temporarily resided after she helped a collateral branch of the Yun clan rise to power.
Her current status is very sensitive, so she naturally cannot live in the capital city.
Although the current royal family in the capital still treats her with great respect, she knows that over time, resentment will inevitably arise.
Therefore, it's better to make a statement from the beginning and sever ties with power as early as possible.
Of course, she wasn't completely stupid; at least she hadn't disbanded her team, and she hadn't given up on some of the businesses in the red-light district.
They entered the tribe's territory quietly, but soon, the guards discovered them.
Qin Xiao had no intention of concealing his whereabouts.
"Ilya, Ling'er, Slovic, you guard the four exits."
After speaking, the group dispersed and went their separate ways.
"Yunyun, go and call her out."
Yun Yun nodded and walked into the courtyard with a blank expression.
The guards looked at Yun Yun, unsure of what to do.
This face is so familiar; most of the people here have seen Yun Yun appear next to Yun Yue before.
He is known as the ancestor of the Yun clan. Who would dare to step forward and stop him?
Qin Xiao, Ye Qingya, and Fu Yunyan sat down directly in the pavilion in the courtyard.
"Qin Xiao, if the other party has no problems, what are you planning to do?"
Fu Yunyan was somewhat worried that Qin Xiao might do something impulsive.
Qin Xiao looked at her and said, "Mayor Fu, I paid the price in the deal, and now I haven't gotten anything in return. I'm definitely going to settle accounts."
Fu Yunyan frowned.
"Qin Xiao, this matter must not be blown out of proportion. If the secret realm is thrown into turmoil, I will not be able to explain myself. I can't hide it even if I want to. Not everyone in this outpost is from Nanyun City."
Fu Yunyan gave Qin Xiao a subtle nod.
Qin Xiao remained silent, and the atmosphere fell into a moment of silence.
Ye Qingya reached out and grasped Qin Xiao's hand. As Qin Xiao's woman, she naturally wouldn't speak up for Fu Yunyan.
However, she also knew that if Qin Xiao went too far, it would cause trouble.
However, she was willing to share the burden with Qin Xiao.
It's perfectly normal for young people to have some temper, and she didn't intend to advise Qin Xiao to swallow his anger.
Moreover, even if Qin Xiao retaliates, his actions are not without limits.
Just as Qin Xiao himself said, he only received the reward that was rightfully his.
Soon, Yunyun and her entourage emerged from the room.
Before she even reached Qin Xiao, Yun Yue was already trembling, and her body, which wasn't wearing a coat, looked exceptionally thin.
She wore a simple, jade-white undershirt, which accentuated her shapely figure.
Seeing Qin Xiao's cold and stern expression, Yun Yue immediately knelt down on the ground.
"My lord, what brings you here?"
Qin Xiao took out the earring, and at this moment the position of the earring had changed again.
He threw the earring down, directly in front of Yunyue's eyes, and asked, "Where did you get this?"
Yun Yue was taken aback and explained somewhat blankly.
"My lord, this is... this is a family heirloom passed down through generations of the Yun family."
"A family heirloom... Hmph, then why don't you know that the other party can pinpoint the opposite location through the earring, and why this cloud beast moves so fast?"
Qin Xiao said irritably.
Since the other party has been searching for the Cloud Beast for many years, it's impossible that they don't know about this issue.
And it's not just him bragging, but given the rank of these guys and the speed of the cloud beasts, how could they possibly get close?
Yun Yue looked completely wronged. "My lord, I really don't know anything about this. Over the years, I've used my earrings to sense the other person's location many times, and I've never noticed this problem before."
laugh!
Qin Xiao sneered and watched the other party perform.
"I must say, your acting skills are truly amazing. No wonder you were trained in a brothel."
"I'm only giving you one chance. Summon it back immediately. If you don't see the Cloud Beast by noon, I will slaughter the entire Cloud Clan!"
