After a while, Qin Xiao returned to Yun Yue and looked at her. Yun Yue subconsciously tugged at her skirt.
"Ahem, well, your matter is something we could look into."
Upon hearing this, Yunyue's expression brightened, and she was about to speak.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop right there. Let me finish. I'm telling you this now, think it through. If you dare to lie to me..."
"See that? Electrocution, piercing, burning—and they can still save you. Don't let me down!"
In response to Qin Xiao's words, Jingjing's dragon claws struck Youyou's unicorn, sending sparks flying, while Ilya transformed into the S Queen, wielding an electric whip.
Qin Xiao himself shuddered at the sight.
"You can't die even if you want to. Even if you do, these two are still here, the masters who play with souls," Qin Xiao said, pointing to Slovic and the phantom-like Yun Yun.
Yun Yue turned pale upon hearing this. Each one of them was more beautiful than the last. How could they be so cruel?
"My lord, rest assured, I will keep my word. This news is the biggest secret of the Yun family, and no one else in the world knows about it except me."
Qin Xiao smiled. "Little brat, threatening me in such a sarcastic way."
"That's good. Tell me, what's your plan?"
Yun Yue was initially quite excited, but she was taken aback when she heard Qin Xiao's words.
"Um, um, I haven't decided yet..."
Qin Xiao was speechless. "After all these years, you still haven't come up with a proper revenge plan?"
Yunyue blushed slightly, "This servant...this servant...didn't expect..."
Well, this is a path I never imagined.
Qin Xiao, now fifty, listened to her revenge plan, but it fell through.
"Alright, think it over carefully today, tell me tomorrow morning, and get it done quickly."
Yunyue nodded dizzily, walked to Nightingale's side, and stared at her blankly.
"Yingying, what do you suggest we do?"
Yingying felt a pang of sorrow. "My young master, wouldn't you like to heal my wounds first..."
A trace of blood lingered at the corner of her mouth. "How about... we storm the capital and kill that dog of an emperor?"
Yun Yue rolled her eyes. In the past, if she could have stormed the capital and killed the dog emperor, she would have been laughing in her sleep.
But now, with the advantage in my hands, and this is all I'm aiming for, how can I be content with that?
"My Yuntian Dynasty has a capital and sixteen prefectures, as well as directly governed areas and enclaves, with over a million armored soldiers and countless experts, in addition to the separatist rule of regional warlords."
If these people are not dealt with properly, even killing all the usurpers of the Zheng family will be of no use; the world will still descend into chaos.
Yunyue was caught in a happy dilemma, and could only make her own choice in her heart.
On the other side, Qin Xiao walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the distant, desolate mountains.
"Tsk, I'll just have to make do here for today. It's just that the Jianmu tree can't be used, which is quite inconvenient."
Normally, in the wild, a wooden cabin can be built in ten seconds. Now that this convenience is suddenly gone, I miss it a little.
"Ilya, I'm counting on you. Let's sleep in a stone house tonight."
Ilya smiled, walked to the side, and began to control the condensation and shaping of the earth and stone.
The ground trembled slightly, and a two-story building was formed, its soil and stones solidified and smooth in texture.
It looks like it was built with marble and jade, which gives it a unique aesthetic appeal.
Qin Xiao led his tamed beasts into the room, and had Ling'er give the woman in black a treatment.
In the room, Slovic took out furniture from his own space and arranged it.
"Master, should we really help them?"
Qin Xiao ate a huge grape cultivated by Bai Ling, his face full of praise.
"Sure, if the benefits are big enough, there's nothing I wouldn't be afraid to do. I'm actually quite interested in that thing."
Slovic covered his chin. "But Master, if we just control her, whether it's Ling'er's allure or my spying, wouldn't that solve everything?"
Qin Xiao looked at Slovic and said, "Xiao Qi, if you keep preaching like this, won't all of you become traitors in the future?"
"There's no need. This is nothing to me, Qin Xiao. It's not worth stooping to such despicable behavior. I wouldn't deign to do something like that."
Qin Xiao wasn't lying. Sometimes, what you should do and what you can do depends on your own bottom line and persistence.
With power, one sometimes naturally seeks simpler and more direct solutions.
However, Qin Xiao still had a sense of right and wrong in his heart.
Slovic wasn't hurt by Qin Xiao's teasing; instead, he looked at him with teary eyes.
"Master, you're so amazing! I admire you the most, Master!"
Qin Xiao felt a chill run down his spine; Slovic's gaze was practically screaming "Damn it!"
"Ahem, well, Sister Qingya, I have some questions about cultivation that I'd like to ask you. Let's discuss them."
Ye Qingya sat on the other side, peeling nuts with Bai Ling.
"No thanks, Lord Qin Xiao is much more capable than me. You should talk to Little Qi, she needs you more. If you feel that one-on-one communication isn't enough, look, Little Ilya is also quite skilled."
Qin Xiao chuckled and chose to close his eyes and pretend to be dead.
"Hey, I ate too much just now, I'm a little full, I need to rest for a bit."
Oh, Jianmu, my dear Jianmu, I've been thinking of you for n days!
Seeing Qin Xiao feigning death, all the women laughed, and the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Ye Qingya is becoming more and more satisfied with her interesting little man; she's really struck gold.
A leisurely day passed without any pursuers or unexpected events.
When Qin Xiao woke up, he felt weak all over, even though he had bravely fought back despite his fear.
Pulling myself out of the comfort of the bedroom, I took a couple of breaths and walked downstairs feeling completely exhausted.
Downstairs, Nightingale and Cloud Moon were eating quietly and politely at the table. When they saw Qin Xiao come down, their faces flushed, and they dared not look up at him.
Ye Qingya looked at him and said, "Qin Xiao, come quickly. Ilya has prepared a nourishing soup for you. Hurry up and replenish your energy."
Qin Xiao sat down listlessly, picked up the soup bowl that was as big as a human head, and gulped down a large mouthful.
"What have you decided? I don't have much time to spare."
When it came to serious matters, Yunyue also became less shy.
"My lord, I have made up my mind. All I need is for you to help me kill the Zheng clan members. Then I will let a branch of the Yun clan succeed to the throne. All I need is for you to stand by and support me."
Qin Xiao looked at her with some surprise, "You're quite generous, are you really willing to give up? This is the throne of an emperor."
Yunyue nodded, looking somewhat dejected.
"I've figured it out. These things are all just fleeting clouds. I'm not good at these political maneuvers. I'm already satisfied that I was able to avenge my parents, the Yun family. Asking for more would only lead to a miserable end."
In fact, Yunyue had also realized that her current reliance for revenge was on Qin Xiao, but he would not stay in this world for long and was completely unreliable.
Qin Xiao nodded. He didn't care, as long as it was a decision.
He kept his promise, obtained the intelligence, and acquired the beast tamer; that was it.
The affairs of this world are of little concern to him.
"Yun Yun, why don't you go with her? It just so happens that you also have the surname Yun. You can say that the ancestor has come out of seclusion to visit his family and see his unworthy descendants."
"Hmm, that's a good excuse. The ancestor went into seclusion to cultivate, the family was robbed, the enraged son unleashed a massacre and then supported the legitimate heir—perfect!"
