"Master, aren't Madam and the others coming yet?"
"We're getting a little impatient."
The disciples stood before Ye Yun, one by one, starting to complain.
Ye Yun smiled faintly and then pointed to the void.
"Look!"
At this moment, two figures descended from above, it was Xing Wu and Xing Meng.
"Xing Meng, hand out the tools right away."
"Oh, you're already bossing me around as soon as you're back? You can give them the things yourself."
"Hey, are you rebelling? Can't you handle such a small matter?"
Xing Wu looked at the person who was identical to her and wondered if she had truly taken herself as the mistress of the house in her absence.
"What are you two doing? We're here to celebrate. I'll prepare."
"It's still Ye Yun who understands the bigger picture."
Xing Meng smiled at Ye Yun, seeming to deliberately provoke Xing Wu.
Ye Yun gave Xing Wu a look, and she stopped arguing about it, releasing the tools from her storage ring.
"We'll help."
Lin Xueyan and the other women rushed over, surprised to see that the tools were all for barbecuing, complete with various seasonings, vegetables, and meat.
"Wow, this is the surprise Master prepared for us, it's great."
"Let's have a good time this time. We've been in a tense combat environment before, now we must relax."
"That's right, Master, you're really too thoughtful."
Seeing her disciples happy, Ye Yun smiled with great satisfaction.
"Ha, you are my precious disciples, of course I won't mistreat you. Come, come, set up the grill. Xiao Wei, I heard you're very good at barbecuing, here's a chance for you to show off."
"Thank you, Master. This time I will show my skills."
Fang Zhiwei revealed a proud smile and began to adjust the grill and prepare the ingredients.
On the distant peak, the Blood Demon Tribe members were stunned to see Ye Yun and his disciples' actions below.
"What are they doing? Look, the princess seems very happy."
"Perhaps they are making some kind of delicacy, a method unknown to our Blood Demon Tribe."
"Don't worry about that. We're here to confirm the princess's safety. At least the princess is happy now, and her cultivation has reached Hundred Steps Heavenly God, which is terrifying."
Several powerful individuals conversed with each other. Seeing that Xiao Ai was safe and happy, they felt largely at ease.
However, no matter what, they had to bring Xiao Ai back to the Blood Demon Tribe, as it was the Demon Lord's command.
"Mo Li, should we make a move?"
"Let's wait and see. Seeing the princess so happy, we should at least wait for her to finish this activity."
"That makes sense!"
The crowd nodded slightly and waited.
By the riverside, as time passed, the sun gradually set.
"Sisters, Master, Madam, look at the barbecue I made."
Fang Zhiwei brought a few skewers of barbecue to Ye Yun and the others, showing them off.
"Wow, it looks, smells, and tastes amazing. Xiao Wei truly is a master of barbecue."
Ye Yun stretched his neck forward and sniffed, approving of Fang Zhiwei's work.
"Mm, quite good, Xiao Wei."
Xing Wu happily took a skewer. The aroma made everyone else eager to try.
"Xiao Wei, then distribute it to everyone."
"Yes, Master."
Fang Zhiwei winked at Bai Xiaoxiao, and together they took more meat skewers and vegetable skewers to distribute to everyone.
They ate with great joy. Ye Yun also brought out treasured wines from the cellars of Tian Lan City. After tasting them, everyone felt refreshed and looked forward to the future.
"Mo Li, now that they've eaten and drunk their fill, it's time for us to act."
"Alright, let's move."
Several figures flew towards the riverbank where Ye Yun and his group were.
Ye Yun, who was tasting the fine wine, immediately sensed the aura of these individuals.
"Who is it?"
Ye Yun shouted coldly, and an invisible pressure surged rapidly towards Mo Li and the other two flying in front.
"Roar!"
With a furious roar, a blood-colored demonic beast appeared behind Mo Li, directly devouring the pressure.
"We are from the Blood Demon Tribe, and we have come today to find our Princess."
"Princess?"
Hearing this title, Ye Yun frowned slightly. He looked at Xiao Ai beside him.
Based on the information previously obtained from Xiao Ai, she was the most fitting person for what these three were saying.
"Sizzle sizzle!"
At this moment, the Blood Fiend Demonic Sword automatically emitted a demonic light, as if responding to the aura of Mo Li and the others.
"It's the Blood Fiend Demonic Sword!"
"The demonic sword has truly taken form, incredible!"
"This person is indeed our Princess."
The three simultaneously looked in Xiao Ai's direction, who then revealed a cold expression.
"Who is your princess? I don't know you people."
Xiao Ai wanted to suppress the light of the Blood Fiend Demonic Sword, but this time the demonic sword could not be suppressed, because it sensed the aura of the Blood Demon Tribe. This was a spontaneous action.
"Blood Fiend Demonic Sword, what are you doing?"
"Master, these people are a lineage of the Celestial Demons, from the Blood Demon Tribe. Although my memory is hazy, I can sense that they are definitely not enemies."
"You!"
Xiao Ai heard the Blood Fiend Demonic Sword seemingly siding with outsiders. Was it going to "rebel"?
"Princess, this Blood Fiend Demonic Sword is a treasure left by a Celestial Demon. It was originally guarded by our Blood Demon Tribe, but due to various unforeseen circumstances, it was scattered across the universe. It is wonderful that it has returned to the hands of the Princess now."
"That's right, Princess. The Demon Lord misses you day and night, waiting for your return."
"Princess, please return to the Blood Demon Tribe with us."
The group bowed in unison, hoping Xiao Ai would return with them.
"Hmph, I'm not going with you. I'll only follow Master."
"This..."
The three exchanged glances, not expecting the Princess to be so stubborn.
They then looked at Ye Yun, seemingly understanding that Ye Yun was hindering their Princess's return.
"Your name is Ye Yun, and you are the Princess's Master?"
"Correct, it is I."
"We hope you will be understanding and let the Princess return with us. She does not belong here."
"Hahaha, although it seems you are not enemies, Xiao Ai is a person with independent thoughts. If she wants to return with you, I will absolutely not stop her. But if she doesn't want to, you should leave on your own."
"What did you say?"
Mo Feng's expression turned fierce, locking onto Ye Yun.
"How dare you be disrespectful to Master?"
Xiao Ai leaped forward, attacking Mo Feng directly.
"Ah? Princess!"
Mo Feng did not expect the emotional bond between Xiao Ai and Ye Yun to be so strong. A sword qi already descended.
"Whoosh!"
Blood-colored winds howled in front of Mo Feng, forming a giant vortex that blocked the sword qi.
