Ning Yao only said two words: "Don't rush."
Ning Wenyi looked at this descendant of the Yunxiang clan and felt that the person looked somewhat familiar.
He couldn't quite put his finger on what looked familiar about it.
“Little girl, if Yao Yao says there’s no rush, then there must be a way. There’s no use in being anxious. You’ll know when you get there.”
Yun Xiangnan glanced at him and said seriously, "I'm thirty-five this year, not some little girl!"
Ning Wenyi was drinking water with his head tilted back when he choked instantly.
"Ahem... What did you say... You're thirty-five?"
Ning Yao was speechless: "Dad, slow down, are you choking?"
"Honey, she looks about your age, how come she's thirty-five?"
"Don't you know that Lady Yunxiang has a secret to preserving her youthful appearance?"
Ning Wenyi shook his head: "There are too many legends about the Yunxiang clan, I can't remember them all."
"Okay, now you know."
Ning Wenyi was still incredulous.
"Let's set off, time to get going!"
As they were about to arrive, Yun Xiangnanshan grew increasingly anxious.
However, Ning Yao still ignored it.
Because she is not at peace with herself right now!
The closer she got to the area Yun Xiangnanshan had described, the faster her heart beat.
The fluctuations within the secret realm made her feel that something was amiss.
Turning her head, she saw that Yun Xiangnan was already sweating profusely, as if she was under great pressure.
In contrast, Ning Wenyi acted as if nothing had happened.
Ning Yao couldn't make a judgment, but Yun Xiang and Nan Shan's situation was urgent.
She immediately mobilized her spiritual power to encircle the three of them.
Yun Xiangnan felt her discomfort suddenly disappear, and she turned to look at Ning Yao in surprise: "What happened?"
Ning Yao looked straight ahead and smiled, "Feeling better?"
"Hmm, much better. The discomfort and depression I felt before are gone."
"Good, speed things up and try to get into the city before nightfall!"
"Alright!" Yun Xiang and Nan Shan had no worries and went all out.
The instant she entered the territory of Yunxiang City, Ning Yao felt countless streams of spiritual energy rushing towards her, seemingly trying to devour her.
She remained calm and composed, slowly channeling her spiritual power to absorb all the incoming spiritual energy into the secret realm.
Then, as if finding a target, the spiritual energy not only did not decrease, but increased instead.
The sheer number of them directly attracted the attention of many people.
After descending the mountain that day, Aheng went straight to Yunxiang City.
Although he grew up in the mountains and had never seen the outside world, he still knew about Yunxiang City.
To save money, he ate a single pancake for three days before he could barely make it to the outskirts of Yunxiang City.
He could sense the difference in Yunxiang City, but he didn't know exactly what it was.
When they were about to enter the city, they encountered their biggest problem.
He's an outsider; he can't get in at all.
After much pleading and even alarming the clan chief, they finally managed to enter the city.
Meanwhile, the unusual activity outside the city immediately caught Aheng's attention.
"Such a blessed land, yet someone has drained its spiritual energy. Who on earth has such power?"
The other person who was alarmed was the Holy Maiden of the Yunxiang Clan.
"Father, Mother, something has happened! The great formation outside the city has been broken, and the earth's spiritual energy is rapidly dissipating!"
The clan chief and the high priest looked on incredulously.
"What happened?"
"Nothing has happened in a thousand years, what's going on now?"
"If the earth's spiritual energy is gone, then the Yunxiang Clan will become fish on the chopping block by all sides, and Yunxiang City will be in danger!"
There are too many legends about the Yunxiang clan, and too many treasures; any one of them could drive someone crazy.
For thousands of years, the earth's spiritual energy has protected it, preventing the wolves from outside from harboring their ambitions.
Anyone who tries to force their way in will only lose their life within a hundred miles outside the city.
Now that the great formation has been broken and spiritual energy has been lost, it can only be a devastating blow to the Yunxiang Clan!
The clan chief and the high priest were about to leave the city to investigate when they were stopped by the saintess.
"Wait!" She calculated with her fingers, then looked puzzled: "The great formation hasn't been broken, but the earth's spiritual energy is still leaking out. What's going on?"
The clan chief and the high priest exchanged a glance, noticing the difference in her tone.
"The great formation is the key to protecting the earth's veins. If the formation is not broken, how could the spiritual energy be lost?"
While the clan chief and high priest were puzzled, the saintess suddenly realized something and a look of shock appeared on her face.
The high priest quickly asked, "What's wrong, Nancy? Is something the matter?"
The Holy Maiden possessed extraordinary abilities, and the expression Yun Xiangnanxi made at this moment caused the clan leader and the high priest to hold their breath once again.
"Father, Mother, perhaps it's not a bad thing."
"The person I'm waiting for may have already arrived!"
The clan chief and high priest were completely bewildered by Yun Xiangnan's words.
"Is that Xiao Wei?"
Yun Xiangnan shook her head and walked out: "She's someone even more important than him!"
The two exchanged a glance, their faces turning serious, and quickly followed.
Then, when they chased after her, Yun Xiangnanxi had already disappeared.
Yun Xiangnan rushed out and bumped into Aheng, who was also rushing out.
A thought flashed through her mind, and she realized Ah Heng's identity instantly.
"Is Young Master Ning heading out?"
Ah Heng didn't mince words and answered frankly, "There's something strange outside the city, and I plan to go take a look."
"In that case, let's go together."
Ah Heng readily agreed: "Please, Holy Maiden!"
The distance of a hundred miles was covered in less than half an hour, and the gates of Yunxiang City were within reach.
At the same time, the spiritual energy flowing towards Ning Yao was almost depleted.
A thin layer of spiritual energy surrounded the area, and the strange movements within the secret realm never ceased. The influx of spiritual energy was causing earth-shattering changes to the secret realm.
Ning Yao, however, could not pay attention to the changes in the secret realm and could only secretly adjust her spiritual power.
Because there were several figures standing nearby at the foot of the city gate, seemingly waiting for them.
Yun Xiangnanshan's eyes lit up with intense surprise.
"Father, Mother! Nancy!"
Perhaps it was the excitement of seeing her relatives that led her to arrive first.
Yun Xiangnanxi and her group were also surprised that Yun Xiangnanshan, who had been missing for sixteen years, had actually returned!
"Elder sister!" Even Yun Xiangnanxi, who was a saintess, couldn't help but shed tears at this moment.
Not to mention the clan chief and the high priest.
As parents, the two of them burst into tears the moment they saw Yun Xiang and Nan Shan.
Sixteen years after her eldest daughter went missing, Yun Xiangnanxi, the younger sister who was a saintess, tried every means to find her sister's whereabouts but to no avail.
I thought she was gone, but I never expected her to come back alive!
"Nanshan!" The high priest cried as he rushed to her and embraced her. "My child, you're still alive! Where have you been all these years?"
Sixteen years later, Yun Xiangnan felt the warmth of her family again and burst into tears.
The strength he usually put on for Ning Yao crumbled completely at this moment.
Ning Yao and Ning Wenyi dismounted and stood quietly to the side, waiting for their family to reunite.
Ah Heng, who was uninvolved, noticed Ning Yao and her father at first glance.
