After asking Uncle Lingzhi for instructions, Hong Juan and Nangong Yun followed Liu Yulan to Ziyun Sect.
But before leaving, Master Lingzhi also warned them not to act impulsively, and it was best to get in touch with the Donghuang Temple first.
If the current female monarch Qingqiu comes forward, perhaps this matter can be resolved peacefully.
Moreover, Master Lingzhi also specifically told Nangong Yun to protect his senior sister. Of course, the "protection" he said was more about letting Nangong Yun help Hong Juan control the situation to prevent her from causing trouble because of her impulsiveness. .
Although Hongjuan was a little aggrieved after hearing her uncle's arrangement, she was eventually coaxed into submission by Nangong Yun with sweet words.
What they faced this time was the Elders Council of the Eastern Wasteland, which no other force on the Yuanhun Continent would dare to offend easily.
But now, Wei Yu of the Presbyterian Church is bullying others too much, and the leader of Ziyun Sect, Yu Ruoling, is Hongjuan's Jinlan sister, so Hongjuan naturally cannot stay out of the matter.
However, Master Lingzhi thought more. Although he did not object to the two of them helping Ziyun Sect, he must also try to avoid conflicts with Donghuang.
Because if there is really an entanglement with Donghuang, it will inevitably involve the entire South Vietnam Empire. In that case, it will be counterproductive. He believes that even Huang He Zhenren will also tell the two of them not to confront Donghuang. conflicting.
Nangong Yun naturally understood his uncle's concerns, so after careful discussion with his uncle, he and Hong Juan left Fengming Mountain for Ziyun Sect.
...
Half a month later.
Ziyun Sect.
Yu Ruoling was sitting quietly in the hexagonal pavilion outside with a depressed look on her face.
Liu Yulan came with Hong Juan and Nangong Yun. When Yu Ruoling turned around and saw Hong Juan, her face immediately showed a look of joy that she had not seen for a long time.
"Sister Hongjuan, you are here."
"Sister Yu, I know everything about you. This Wei Yu is really shameless. The head of the dignified Presbyterian Council shamelessly started robbing a bride. He has really gained face for the Donghuang Temple!"
As soon as Hongjuan saw Yu Ruoling, she immediately scolded Wei Yu.
However, Yu Ruoling said with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. They just asked me to marry Wei Yu, a bastard. Even if I die, I won't suffer such humiliation!"
"Hmph! He only dares to be so unscrupulous because of his own power and cultivation. Now that I'm here, I will definitely help Sister Yu. At worst, we will fight him. Anyway, you can't marry him. shameless!"
Hongjuan said with an annoyed look.
However, Nangong Yun on the side frowned and persuaded after hearing such angry words from his senior sister.
"Sister, please be patient. After all, Wei Yu is the head of the Donghuang Presbyterian Church. We'd better understand what's going on first before making any arguments. What's more, Wei Yu's cultivation is not weak. If we fight head-on with him, , we are not sure of victory."
Hearing these words, Yu Ruoling turned her eyes to Nangong Yun behind Hong Juan. She had been wondering just now who this gentle mortal boy was and why he came with Hong Juan.
At this time, hearing him say such words again, Yu Ruoling was even more puzzled. How could he, an ordinary person, dare to fight against a star-level powerhouse like Wei Yu?
Hongjuan naturally saw Yu Ruoling's doubts, and then introduced Yu Ruoling with a smile.
"This is my junior brother, his name is Nangong Yun, and sister Yu, don't get me wrong, he is actually a practitioner of the Star Realm, but others cannot detect his cultivation."
"Oh? There are such magical things in the world."
Yu Ruoling suddenly realized it after hearing Hongjuan's explanation. She smiled and said to Nangong Yun.
"It's true that a hero comes from a young age. It's incredible to see that you are several years younger than sister Hongwen, but you have already reached the star realm."
Immediately, Yu Ruoling turned back and said to Hongjuan.
"Sister, what kind of place is your South Vietnam Empire that can produce so many peerless geniuses?"
Facing Yu Ruoling's inquiry, Hongjuan said with a smile.
"What kind of genius am I? If it weren't for Sister Yu who brought me to the Tianyan Mountains, I would still be an ordinary Yuanhun Realm practitioner!"
Yu Ruoling asked with a sweet smile after hearing this.
"What about your junior brother? I have never brought him to Ziyun Sect."
"Hehe, of course he was taught by me!"
Hong Juan replied mischievously, and then she turned back to Nangong Yun and asked.
"Don't you think so?"
When Nangong Yun saw that this was a question, she was clearly trying to intimidate him with her talking eyes!
However, Nangong Yun could only answer with a dry smile.
"That's right, I am what I am today only under the careful guidance of my senior sister. Therefore, I will never forget my great kindness and kindness!"
"Ha ha......"
Nangong Yun's tacit answer made Yu Ruoling and Hong Juan laugh.
But at this moment, Nangong Yun stepped forward, cupped his fists and saluted Yu Ruoling.
"Nangong Yun, I have met Master Yu. Since you and senior sister are sisters Jinlan, just call me Xiaoyun like senior sister."
Although Hongjuan had introduced him to Yu Ruoling just now, Yu Ruoling was the sect leader of Ziyun Sect after all, and she was also the senior sister Jinlan, so he couldn't lose his etiquette.
The senior sister can be commensurate with her sisters and not stick to etiquette, but he cannot because he wants to represent Fengming Mountain.
As the leader of a sect, Yu Ruoling was naturally better able to understand this truth, so she bowed slightly and returned the greeting to Nangong Yun.
"Thank you so much for coming all the way to help!"
"Okay, okay, stop being so polite. It makes Sister Yu and I look awkward!"
Hongjuan couldn't help complaining when she saw that the two of them were showing signs of reciprocity.
Yu Ruoling immediately said to Nangong Yun with a smile.
"Then just call me Sister Yu like Sister Hongwen."
"Well, Sister Yu!"
Nangong Yun said very wisely.
Seeing this, Hongjuan smiled happily.
"This is right!"
Then, she asked Yu Ruoling seriously.
"Sister Yu, what's going on now? Apart from threatening you, does Wei Yu have any other actions?"
"Well, just as my sister thought, he not only threatened me to go to Donghuang to marry him in a month, but also sent people to monitor us near the sect, for fear that we would take advantage of this time to escape."
When Yu Ruoling mentioned this matter, her expression fell back into the previous melancholy and distress.
Obviously, she knew very well that it was impossible for this matter to be rectified. Now she only hoped for a miracle to happen. Otherwise, she might really have to die to keep her innocence.
Looking at the concerned expressions on the faces of Hong Juan and Nangong Yun in front of her, she knew that they really wanted to help her sincerely, but Wei Yu was the head of the Donghuang Presbyterian Council, and his cultivation strength was also limited. It was so high that she felt desperate.
Yu Ruoling continued before the two of them could speak.
"Now there are only seven days left before the deadline Wei Yu gave me. Recently, they have deployed additional manpower around Ziyun Sect. He does not want to let go of our entire Ziyun Sect.
Moreover, I cannot leave so many disciples behind and leave alone. It seems that I can only cut off his thoughts. Perhaps only in this way can Ziyun Sect escape the disaster! "
Yu Ruoling's tone became very frustrated at the end.
Hongjuan naturally heard the suicidal thoughts in Yu Ruoling's words. Then, she took a step forward, took Yu Ruoling's hands and said firmly.
"Sister Yu, you must not do anything stupid, you know that!"
Nangong Yun also spoke at this time.
"Yes, Sister Yu, please don't be so frustrated first. Besides, with the villainous behavior of Wei Yu, even if you commit suicide, he may not let the rest of the Ziyun Sect go!"
Upon hearing this, Hongjuan nodded and persuaded.
"That's right, since Wei Yu can do such shameless things to you, doesn't he have plans for other sisters?
Moreover, Sister Yu, you don’t have to be too desperate. If it doesn’t work, let’s just fight him. I don’t believe he can really cover the sky with one hand.
Not long ago, I personally killed Wan Zhentian, a fifth-level star cultivator. If Wei Yu wants to be the next Wan Zhentian, I will still not be merciful! "
Hearing Hong Juan's words, Yu Ruoling asked with horror on her face.
"Is it your fault that the Western Region Wanxiang Sect was destroyed?!"
"That's right! Wan Zhentian killed Xiaoyun's whole family back then, so I burned their Wanxiang Sect to ashes!"
Hong Juan continued with an angry face and disdain between her eyebrows.
"People like Wan Zhentian and Wei Yu simply don't deserve to be cultivators. They are bullying, despicable and shameless people. As long as I catch them, I will let them taste the consequences of their misbehavior!"
Nangong Yun was also a little helpless when he saw that the senior sister had an unhappy look on her face and that whenever she mentioned Wei Yu in her words, she always wanted to vent her anger on Yu Ruoling's behalf.
Senior Sister's temper has indeed been the same since she was a child, although sometimes she seems a little impulsive and emotional.
However, when Nangong Yun saw that his senior sister cared so much about her friends, was not afraid of hardships, and dared to be an enemy of a strong person like Wei Yu, she suddenly felt full of love in her heart.
He found that these characteristics of the senior sister's character have always existed, but they have been living in Fengming Mountain and will not encounter such things.
Therefore, in his impression, most of the time, senior sister is warm and graceful.
Now that they have left Fengming Mountain and encountered these infuriating things, the senior sister has naturally shown her personality of being willing to help others and not afraid of power!
However, Nangong Yun suddenly felt that perhaps it was precisely because of these innate characteristics of his senior sister that he felt a deep admiration for her.
Nangong Yun put away his thoughts and said to Hongjuan with a smile.
"Senior sister, there is no need to get angry for this kind of person, and we don't necessarily have to fight him, because the Presbyterian Council is still under the jurisdiction of the East Barren Temple after all, so we have to see what the owner means when we beat the dog."
After hearing this, Hongjuan recalled Master Lingzhi's instructions, and then nodded and smiled.
"Yes, you have to ask his master!"
