At dusk that day, Qin Tian and Hun Dun arrived at Yuanzhou City. The once bustling Yuanzhou City was now deserted. The streets were desolate everywhere, and the people were in chaos and panic.
Qin Tian and Hun Dun found an inn as their place to stay. Although there were few people on the street, there were a lot of people in the inn.
Maybe because there were too many people, not even one or two would make a difference, the shopkeeper's attitude was not very good, and there was no smile on his face.
"There is only one room left. Do you want it?" the shopkeeper asked in a stiff tone.
Qin Tian ignored him, but Hun Dun’s voice was even harsher than the shopkeeper’s, “Yes!”
The shopkeeper raised his eyelids and glanced at Hun Dun. "Ten mid-grade spirit stones for one night. Young man, don't be too impatient. Yuanzhou City is no longer what it used to be."
Hun Dun was too lazy to pay attention to him. He gave the spirit stones to the shopkeeper and went upstairs directly. Ten medium-grade spirit stones were no different from robbery, but Hun Dun didn't care. He was rich and powerful.
In the room, Qin Tian and Hun Dun sat at the table, poured two cups of tea, called the waiter, and ordered some food.
The sky gradually darkened, and in the blink of an eye it was already late at night. The doors and windows of the inn were closed.
The night was extremely quiet. Just when Qin Tian and Hun Dun wanted to go to Lu Mansion to take a look, a burst of hurried footsteps were heard on the street outside the window. It was particularly obvious in this extremely quiet night.
Then, the sound of weapons clashing was heard. Hun Dun opened the window and saw five people wearing Lu family robes on the street, constantly besieging a young man.
Looking again, Hun Dun's eyes showed some surprise, and he couldn't help but say, "Master, the one being besieged seems to be Yun Bei, the one from Yun Miao Sect, Yun Yun's junior brother."
Hearing this, Qin Tian slowly stood up and went to take a look. It was indeed Yun Bei. This way, he could be considered to have met an old friend.
At this moment, the five men's attack was extremely fierce, and the speed of their swords was extremely fast. Yun Bei's body was already covered with scars.
"Go and help him." Qin Tian said lightly.
Chaos nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, my lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hun Dun moved and fell from the building, just in time to block Yun Bei's fatal sword. The five people were a little surprised by the arrival of the uninvited guest.
At this time, there are still people who dare to get involved in these things. It is no exaggeration to say that they are courting death.
One of them shouted, "Let's kill them all."
As soon as the sound fell, five people attacked together. However, these five people did not even have the cultivation level of Tianzong realm, so how could they be a match for Hun Dun? In less than three seconds, these five people all died at Hun Dun's hands.
Yunbei, who had escaped from the jaws of death, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He walked to Hun Dun and was about to say thank you, but before he could say anything, Hun Dun picked up his clothes and brought him back to the room. Hun Dun also closed the window.
Yun Bei stood still and looked at Qin Tian and Hun Dun with suspicion. "Thank you both for your help. I would like to know your names so that I can repay you in the future."
It was normal for Yunbei to ask this question. At this moment, Qin Tian and Hun Dun had changed their faces, so he naturally could not recognize them.
Afterwards, Qin Tian and Hun Dun removed their disguises, and Qin Tian said calmly, "No need to introduce yourself now, right?!"
"It turns out to be Mr. Qin. I didn't expect that Mr. Qin would be in Yuanzhou City at this time." Yun Bei said in surprise.
It’s no wonder that Yunbei is like this. Qin Tian is now the number one enemy of the Lu family. He didn’t leave Qingzhou far away, but lived under the nose of the Lu family. He is really brave!
Qin Tian saw what Chu Yunbei was thinking and just smiled. He did not continue the topic but asked, "Why didn't your senior sister come with you?"
Yunyun and Yunbei have always been in the same business, but now Yunyun is nowhere to be seen.
Hearing this, Yunbei's expression darkened, his sadness evident in his words, "Senior Sister...she...it's my fault for being incompetent and failing to protect her."
As he spoke, Yunbei burst into tears, and his expression of pain made people feel pity for him.
Yun Yun is dead. It has only been a few days since I last saw her, and she has passed away. The world is mysterious. For some people, the last time you see them, it really becomes the last time.
There was even no time to say goodbye, no time to exchange a few kind words, and once we turned around, the distance between us was a distance that could never be crossed.
Separated by Yin and Yang!
Qin Tian and Hun Dun didn't know how to comfort Yun Bei. Without saying a word, others could not truly empathize with him. He needed to go through this hurdle on his own.
It took a full quarter of an hour for Yunbei to calm down.
"Was it done by the Lu family?" Hun Dun asked after seeing that Yun Bei's emotions had calmed down a lot.
Yun Bei's eyes, however, were somewhat empty, painful, and incredulous, revealing extremely complex emotions. He said nothing and never said from beginning to end whether it was the Lu family who killed Yun Yun.
However, Qin Tian saw the answer from Yun Bei's eyes. Yun Yun did not die at the hands of the Lu family. As for who killed her, Qin Tian also had a guess.
Qin Tian did not continue the topic, but asked, "Are the Zhou family's direct descendants and the Qingyun Sect's inner disciples all imprisoned in the Lu family?!"
Hearing this, Yunbei and Qin Tian looked at each other. He seemed to have guessed what Qin Tian wanted to do, but he didn't quite understand. In short, it was vague.
However, Yunbei didn't want to care about these things at the moment, and slowly replied, "Yes, they are all in the Lu family. It can't be said that they are imprisoned. They just don't want to leave."
"Don't you want to leave?" Chaos was a little confused.
Now, the relationship between the Lu family, Qingyun Sect and Zhou family is so delicate, and they don’t want to leave the Lu family. It’s really interesting.
Hearing this, Qin Tian smiled slightly, "This is not a difficult thing to do, it's just that desire is hard to satisfy."
"What you said hits the nail on the head!" Yunbei said.
What Qin Tian said really saw through the essence of it, and hit the nail on the head. It is not so much that human nature cannot stand the test, but rather that human desires cannot stand the test at all.
Qin Tian smiled and said, "If the door of desire had never been opened, or even if the door had never been seen, there would be no complexity. But if the door of desire has some cracks, it will expand infinitely, and it will be difficult for heaven and earth to fill it!"
Yunbei nodded heavily, "Yes! The Zhou family member likes spirit stones, so Lu Ruhai built him a room with spirit stones. Whether it's the table, chairs, or the bed, they are all made of spirit stones.
As for the one from Qingyun Sect, he loves women, and with hundreds of beauties playing with him, how could he be willing to leave? "
Hearing this, Hun Dun opened his mouth slightly, "What a big move! Lu Ruhai is really quite courageous.
So, how come you're alright? Don't you have any desire at all?
He suddenly wanted to hear how Yunbei resisted the temptation. Looking at Yunbei's appearance, he didn't seem to have a strong faith in Taoism.
Yunbei's expression darkened, and he smiled bitterly, "My desire is huge, bigger than the world, but... my desire is gone!"
What he called desire was Yun Yun. He loved Yun Yun, and his greatest wish was to possess Yun Yun.
Now that his desires were gone, he sometimes thought, if a person had no desires, wouldn't that be the same as having no heart? What's the difference between that person and a walking corpse?
If someone tells you that he has no desires or demands, then you should stay away from this person, because he is not genuine!
