During the years when Yao Yan was away, the power of the Snake People expanded rapidly, and now they have occupied more than a dozen human countries, almost surrounding the Gama Empire. Their power is strong enough to rank among the top five in the northwest continent. Their leader, Queen Medusa, has even entered the level of Dou Zun. Countless Dou Zongs have died at her hands, and there are even two Dou Zun.
His fame and notoriety spread throughout the entire northwestern continent.
“Looking at her attitude, she seems to be aiming to unify the northwest continent.” Yun Yun sighed softly.
"It seems like something she would do." Yao Yan was not at all surprised after listening to Yun Yun's narration. With Cai Lin's personality, if she hid in the Gama Empire waiting for him to come back, she would not be the Medusa Queen of the Snake People.
In the past, due to their strength limitations, Cai Lin could only lead the Snake People to hide in the territory of the Gama Empire. Now that her bloodline has evolved, her talents have been liberated, and with the help of the elixir left by Yao Yan, her strength has broken through to the level of Dou Zun. She will definitely lead the Snake People to move out.
With such a proud character like hers, how could she tolerate herself living under the protection of others?
If the Gama Empire had not chosen to cooperate with Yaoyan, perhaps the Gama Empire would no longer exist and would have been directly annexed by Yaoyan.
He pondered for a moment, then chuckled and said, "It feels like things have changed a lot."
"You've been gone for almost ten years." Yun Yun looked at Yao Yan's face with a look of reminiscence in her eyes and said softly, Yao Yan was not so mature back then. The heroic spirit between his brows became more intense and he became more handsome.
Thinking of this, a hint of panic flashed across Yun Yun's eyes. She pretended to look away casually and looked down at the cup in her hand. The slightly rippling water surface was like her mood at the moment.
It's a mess and there's no peace anymore.
"Yes~ It's been almost ten years!" Yao Yan sighed and said slowly.
When he left, he was only a Dou Huang, and was surrounded by Yao Lao and others. Now that he is back, there is no one around him, but his strength has changed greatly, and he is about to enter the one-star Dou Sheng level.
And his identity also changed, becoming the young patriarch of the Soul Clan!
"It can be seen that a lot of things have happened around you over the years." Yun Yun slowly raised her head and glanced at Yao Yan. After hesitating for a moment, she spoke in a low voice.
"You haven't changed much... No, you're even more beautiful~" Upon hearing this, Yao Yan looked at Yun Yun, paused for a moment, and then smiled softly. Compared to the past, Yun Yun's temperament has undoubtedly changed a little. Status nourishes people, and after becoming the leader of the Yunlan Sect, her noble aura has become more natural.
Yun Yun ignored Yao Yan's teasing words. She lowered her eyes and tightened her hand holding the cup slightly. It was obvious that her mood was not as calm as she appeared.
"I won't stay in the Gama Empire for long. I will leave in three days at most." Yao Yan continued.
"Then...will you come back?" Yun Yun didn't know why she asked such a question. She asked it almost instinctively. After she finished speaking, she didn't dare to look at Yao Yan, for fear that he would misunderstand something.
"Maybe he won't come back~" Yao Yan said softly.
Yun Yun felt inexplicably bitter in her heart and really wanted to ask Yao Yan why he bullied her, but she was too shy to ask such a question. She could only look at the cup in her hand with mixed feelings and the rising mist, and she was distracted for a moment.
If Yao Yan really never comes back, then she...
"You can come to Zhongzhou to find me later!" Yao Yan made an invitation, encouraging Yun Yun to take the initiative.
Yun Yun may seem like the leader of a sect, but when it comes to love between men and women, she is as pale as a blank sheet of paper... the kind that is easy to bully. It is inexplicably interesting to see her hesitant expression.
Gu Xun'er's evaluation of someone was very correct, his character was indeed a bit bad.
"What do I want to see you for? Do I want to come to you and be bullied?" Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Yao Yan and snorted, but her pretty face flushed again, showing that she was not calm at the moment.
"Then I promise that I will never bully you next time I see you!" Yao Yan coaxed.
“Let’s talk about it when that day comes… Yanran is still young, and Yunlan Sect can’t do without me for the time being.” Yun Yun gently brushed a strand of hair beside her cheek and said with gentle eyes. As the leader of Yunlan Sect, she had to be responsible for Yunlan Sect. How could she let her younger brother Yaoyan act recklessly?
"I'll help you capture Yunshan back." Yao Yan made a suggestion. The old guy was quite free and easy. After his breakthrough, he went traveling and left Yun Yun alone to take over the Yunlan Sect. His personality was completely different from the original.
"Okay~" Yun Yun covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard that.
Yao Yan naturally wouldn't take it seriously. With Yun Yun's personality, even if he really captured Yun Shan, she might not leave with him. After thinking for a while, he took out a volume of dual cultivation technique obtained from the Spirit Clan from his ring and handed it to Yun Yun. He bewitched her seriously, "If you have time, you can study it. This technique is a heritage technique of a large clan. It has reached the heavenly level and involves yin and yang, and can directly point to the great way!"
"It's too expensive!" Yun Yun shook her head slightly, unwilling to accept such a valuable item.
The heavenly level of martial arts was something she had never heard of before.
"What's so valuable? A martial art that cannot be practiced is useless no matter how high its level is. This martial art requires a man and a woman to practice. I can't practice it alone. Take a look, maybe you can help me practice it." Yao Yan pushed the martial art forward and said.
Yun Yun hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it. Then, at Yao Yan's urging, she placed the technique between her eyebrows and read it with her soul power. Immediately, a large amount of information flooded into her mind. The profound content made her gradually indulge in it. However, soon, some of the content involving the intersection of yin and yang made her blush. The many intercourse postures made her blush even more, and her breathing became slightly rapid.
She suddenly took the scroll away from her brow, and looked at Yao Yan with shame and anger in her beautiful eyes: "How could you treat me like this!"
Yun Yun was really angry at this moment. She had been taken advantage of by Yao Yan before. Perhaps because they had not seen each other for a long time, she was in a bad mood and did not come to her senses for a while. But now, the content of this scroll was blatant teasing. How could she tolerate it?
“I don’t have any!” Yao Yan’s face was calm. He pointed at the technique in Yun Yun’s hand and said seriously, “This technique originated from a Doudi family. It was created by the Doudi back then. The content of the technique is profound and not what you have seen. Calm down and study it carefully. You will naturally be able to appreciate the specialness and magic of this technique! Most importantly, you don’t need too strong a talent to practice this technique. Even ordinary people can get started. I found it especially for you... Even if it does not involve the later intersection of yin and yang, and is just a one-sided practice, this technique will not be weaker than the general high-level earth-level techniques!”
Yao Yan was not making this up; it was the conclusion he reached after a long period of research. However, the essence of this technique lies in the intersection of yin and yang. If it is practiced alone, its power will be greatly reduced.
"Don't let your mind wander. If I really wanted to humiliate you, why would I tell you all this? With my strength, can't I force you? Think about it carefully, have I ever relied on my strength to do anything to you?" Yao Yan said righteously.
Have!
Yun Yun wanted to answer like this, but Yao Yan's "preaching" made her hold back what she wanted to say. She even felt that she might have really misunderstood him. She just looked at the scroll of the technique on the table. She didn't have the courage to pick it up and take a look, especially in front of Yao Yan. "...How could a Dou Emperor create such a technique!" She was silent for a long time before asking in confusion.
"There's no other way. It's difficult for the Dou Emperor to give birth to offspring, so he uses martial arts to increase his chances." Yao Yan inferred that the Ling Emperor was undoubtedly the most bizarre Dou Emperor. His combat power could not be estimated for the time being, but when it came to matters between men and women, he was at the master level.
"Take it back. I don't know how to practice... this kind of martial arts!" Yun Yun said with some difficulty.
"The Record of Yin and Yang Combination"!
What a bad name!
The image of the Dou Emperor collapsed in Yun Yun's mind. It turned out that the legendary Dou Emperors were not only tall and majestic, but also had such an unruly existence. It really opened Yun Yun's eyes and she was almost dumbfounded.
"You are too taboo about matters between men and women. I took out this technique not to hint at anything in you, but this technique is really suitable for you... I don't want to see you grow old hundreds of years later. The road ahead is still long, and I hope to keep watching over you." Yao Yan coaxed sincerely.
Although he has other techniques that are suitable for Yun Yun, only this technique can help Yun Yun go further in the future!
In this regard, Yaoyan is still very confident.
At worst, you can just work harder on your own.
Yun Yun obviously didn't know Yao Yan's 'bad intentions'. Facing Yao Yan's sincere gaze, she frowned slightly and hesitated. She wanted to refuse, but Yao Yan's words made it impossible for her to refuse. If one day her face really aged, then...
Although some contents of this technique are extremely unbearable, the other part is a genuine heavenly-level technique that involves the insights of a Dou Emperor.
"Take a look. If it is really inappropriate, just destroy it." Yao Yan added.
"...I can't argue with you." Yun Yun sighed lightly, and finally chose to put the skills into the ring. As for the relationship with Yao Yan, some things cannot be explained clearly today. Perhaps since the kiss that year, her heart has been completely confused.
"Is it just that you can't argue?" Yao Yan smiled slightly and asked back.
Yun Yun was very confused. She turned away her eyes, clenched the cup, and didn't want to talk to Yao Yan anymore. She thought she could just keep calm, but the more they talked, the more excessive it became. She almost took off all her clothes and was bullied by the other party, which made her feel ashamed and helpless.
Yao Yan understood that too much is as bad as too little, so he did not continue to tease her. He just sat there quietly drinking tea, admiring Yun Yun's appearance, and enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
For him, peaceful days like these were destined not to last long.
Time passes bit by bit.
Only after the tea in the cup was finished did Yao Yan pass the cup over, shook it, and said, "No more~"
Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Yao Yan, who was a heavy drinker, and stood up to make tea for him. Then she sat beside him again. The atmosphere was still quiet and beautiful. She felt that when Yao Yan didn't speak, he seemed more "behaved" and less irritating.
"After leaving the Gama Empire, will you go looking for them?" After hesitating for a moment, she asked in a casual voice.
"Of course. I haven't seen them for such a long time, I miss them a lot." Yao Yan frankly admitted his scumbag nature. Sitting next to Yun Yun did not prevent him from missing Cai Lin and the others. Besides, he also had a fiancée.
"If they knew you had a fiancée, they wouldn't treat you well." Yun Yun thought of that scene and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She had seen the two sisters Cai Lin before, especially the elder sister, whose aura was not so easy to deal with. Yao Yan had been gone for nearly ten years without anyone noticing, and when he came back, he had a fiancée. Would Cai Lin tolerate Yao Yan like this?
"I was forced to do this. They will forgive me." Yao Yan said shamelessly.
Hearing this, Yun Yun remembered that Yao Yan's marriage was a family marriage. Yao Yan really had no way to refuse, but Yao Yan's words were still a little irritating. She couldn't help but wonder, "Is it really forced by the family? Why do I feel like you are quite willing?"
"Don't jump to conclusions without knowing the whole story. You are slandering me!" Yao Yan retorted calmly. With his current mentality, he stood as still as a mountain.
Yun Yun alone cannot make any difference.
Yun Yun nodded and did not continue the topic. She sat with Yao Yan for a while. Suddenly, a Dou Wang-level aura came from outside the house, and then someone outside the house said, "Yun Yun, are you there?!"
"Gu He?" Yao Yan raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise. He almost forgot about this person.
However, after not seeing each other for many years, Gu He's strength has only reached the Dou Wang level, which is almost the same as the original. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. After all, the strength of the Yunlan Sect is much stronger than the original, with two Dou Zongs alone.
Yun Yun glanced at Yao Yan and said, "He must have something to talk to me about. Wait a moment."
After saying that, she stood up and walked out of the house.
"Let me go with you." Yao Yan reached out and held her hand, saying softly.
Yun Yun was held by Yao Yan, and after hesitating for a moment, she nodded slowly. She also wanted to stop Gu He from having some unrealistic thoughts, but Gu He seemed to have never heard her previous refusal. Now that Yao Yan was by her side, perhaps Gu He could completely give up the idea.
The two of them walked out of the cottage together, and they met a middle-aged man with a distinguished temperament, who looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing a special alchemy suit with the emblem of a sixth-grade alchemist. He had a humble temperament, but this humble atmosphere disappeared the moment he saw Yao Yan, and an extremely obvious hostility came straight at him.
"It's you?!" Gu He's expression changed, and the next moment, he recognized Yao Yan. Although the other party's temperament and appearance had changed slightly, one could still see the shadow of the young man from that year.
"It's me." Yao Yan held Yun Yun's cold little hand and declared his sovereignty openly: "It's been many years since we last met. I hope you are doing well!"
"You..." Gu He saw Yao Yan and Yun Yun holding hands, his face turned very ugly, and his fists were tightly clenched. He didn't expect that the young man from that year would appear again, and when he appeared again, he would meet in such a scene. (End of this chapter)
