He still thought of it constantly, for it was truly too tempting.
Xing Wu's face flushed, but she quickly regained her composure and cleared her throat.
"It depends on your performance. It's not impossible to consider going a few times."
"Got it. Anything you need, my wife, just say the word."
Ye Yun was satisfied. Hearing her words, it implied they could go more than once.
This was, well, a little too appealing.
Xing Wu felt a touch of helplessness at his reaction.
"You fellow, you're really..."
At this moment, Feng Qingxian, seeing they had chatted enough, chimed in with a smile.
She scrutinized Ye Yun at close range, saying with a sigh,
"You fellow, you're truly terrifying. In just two years since I last saw you, even the Heavenly Dao Hall Master is no match for you."
For them, two years was but a blink of an eye.
Such rapid, terrifying improvement made her suspect Ye Yun had received some divine favor.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yun smiled, giving his usual answer.
"It's nothing, I just stumbled upon some fortunate encounters and improved my strength a little."
Feng Qingxian was accustomed to his responses.
She smiled and said with emotion,
"Regardless, it's fortunate you returned in time. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome. Thank you."
Had Ye Yun not returned with such power, after this siege,
Chaofeng Mountain would not only have been devastated but also suffered heavy casualties. As for her and Xing Wu, it was even more so.
Therefore, she was truly grateful to Ye Yun.
"Ah, we're all family. No need for politeness. Besides, I'm still an honorary elder of Chaofeng Mountain."
Ye Yun said with a faint smile, not feeling like he had done anything extraordinary.
However, speaking of which, he turned to look at Xing Lian, then his gaze fell on Xing Wu.
"Right, your sister who raises her eyebrows, I've got her under control. Do you plan to kill her or what?"
Xing Lian had lost this battle thoroughly.
After this, it was almost impossible for her to make a comeback.
In his opinion, he leaned towards sparing her life, but if Xing Wu had other intentions, Ye Yun would not interfere.
Although she had pushed him quite hard, she was still Xing Wu's blood relative. Moreover, she hadn't truly caused him any losses, so killing her wasn't a necessity.
However, between the two sisters, it was a fight to the death in the truest sense.
Hearing this, Xing Wu turned to look. Xing Lian's icy gaze met hers without fear.
The two sisters stared at each other, their gazes clashing across the distance.
Even in this predicament, Xing Lian showed no fear, nor did she attempt to beg for her life by invoking their sisterly bond.
For individuals who had lived for millennia, death was never terrifying. Loneliness was far more frightening.
They stared at each other for a long time, neither speaking.
Finally, Xing Wu turned to Ye Yun and said,
"Her, let's take her back for now."
Upon hearing this, Xing Lian, who had been silent, let out a cold laugh.
"What is it, don't tell me you're relenting due to sisterly affection and can't bring yourself to act."
But before her words were even finished, a black sword shadow streaked out.
The fleeting sword light grazed her neck, instantly severing a blood vessel. Blood gushed from the wound, dyeing nearly half her skirt red.
"Relenting?"
Xing Wu retracted the black flying sword into her hand. She glanced at Xing Lian coldly and said,
"I'm not killing you simply because you can still be useful."
With that, she ignored her.
For ordinary people, such an injury would be fatal.
However, for an Emperor-tier expert, especially one with a peak Emperor-tier physique, without the power of heavenly principles, it was not a fatal wound.
The wound bled for a while before gradually healing and recovering on its own.
Xing Lian remained composed, her gaze fixed on Xing Wu.
Xing Wu, meanwhile, returned to Ye Yun's side, her icy expression softening slightly.
"Alright, let's go down first. Your disciple is still suppressing the army. Don't keep her waiting too long."
Ye Yun nodded in agreement.
Then, carrying Xing Lian in the cage, they all flew down together.
However, as they descended, Ye Yun's mouth twitched at the sight of the ground.
"Damn it, that little girl. I told her to be careful, and she still made a mess of it..."
He surmised that the anomaly he felt from below during the fight with Xing Lian was most likely Xiao Meng unleashing the Sea God's Spear.
The entire ground was completely barren.
Xing Lian, brought down with them, finally saw clearly what had happened below.
The million-strong army she had led, and even those Emperor-tier experts, were all pinned to the ground by a blue domain.
Sensing the immense power emanating from the domain, a flicker of disbelief crossed Xing Lian's otherwise calm, beautiful eyes.
"This is... a Divine Domain? Impossible!"
"Oh, as expected of the Heavenly Dao Hall Master. You have quite an eye for quality."
Ye Yun smiled and explained,
"This is the genuine Sea God's Domain."
Receiving Ye Yun's confirmation, Xing Lian could no longer remain composed.
"There can't be gods in this world. How did you do this?"
As the master of the Heavenly Domain, she knew everything about it and was certain that no gods existed.
Even most records related to gods had been mysteriously destroyed.
Yet now, Ye Yun had a living god by his side. How could she stay calm?
Ye Yun smiled faintly.
"We'll have plenty of time to discuss these matters with you later."
Then, he beckoned to Xiao Meng not far away.
"Xiao Meng, come here for a moment."
Xiao Meng had noticed him as soon as he descended from the clouds. Seeing his gesture, she instantly appeared before him and said obediently,
"Master, you're back..."
"Mm."
Ye Yun smiled, then pointed to Xing Wu beside him.
"Come here. This is your master-mother."
Ye Yun and Xing Wu were holding hands at the moment. Even without him saying it, Xiao Meng had vaguely guessed her identity.
She then stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Xing Wu.
"Greetings, Master-Mother."
Seeing her humble, polite, and cute demeanor,
Xing Wu couldn't help but gently stroke her head and say with a smile,
"Mm, what a cute little sister."
Xiao Meng relished her touch.
Her innocent appearance made Xing Wu glance at Ye Yun and remark,
"You fellow, you've finally found a proper disciple."
Clearly, this remark was a jab at certain individuals who spent their days scheming to become rebellious disciples.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yun shrugged innocently.
"What do you mean 'finally'? I've always sought proper disciples, it's just that they themselves went astray."
