Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1278: The Engagement Annulled!
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"Your cousin... went to Peach Blossom Island?"
Ye Yun looked at the red-clothed youth, asking in surprise.
This is truly too coincidental.
He also happened to be going to Peach Blossom Island, to personally observe the Wordless Heavenly Scripture.
Who would have thought.
A little girl from the Tai Family also went.
This is interesting, what a coincidence!
"Yes, Long Yunzi!
My cousin went to observe the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, I believe she’ll be back before long!"
The red-clothed youth smiled.
Seeing that Long Yunzi no longer intended to attack him, he felt much more at ease.
"Hehe, that’s quite interesting."
Ye Yun grinned.
It seems that a conflict with that little girl on Peach Blossom Island is unavoidable.
"What’s your name, and what’s your cousin’s name?" After thinking for a moment, Ye Yun asked again.
"My name is Tai Rong, and my cousin’s name is Tai Fei."
The red-clothed youth wrung his hands, smiling ingratiatingly as he said.
Ye Yun nodded, then his face turned somber.
"Tai Rong, do you know your crime?"
He demanded coldly.
"I say, Long Yunzi, why the change in attitude, aren’t you my brother-in-law?"
The red-clothed youth Tai Rong was startled, looking panic-stricken, quickly waving his hands.
"Brother-in-law? You’re quite good at forming connections!
Damn it, if you say that again, believe it or not, I’ll cut off your tongue!"
Ye Yun sneered.
Tai Rong immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.
Long Yunzi was too powerful.
Cutting off the tongue was a light punishment; he might just take his life.
Ye Yun stared coldly at Tai Rong, speaking in a deep voice: "From today on, the marriage arranged by your ancestor is completely null and void! If you Tai Family continues to act recklessly, I will not let it pass lightly!"
Marriage null and void?
Tai Rong’s face went pale with fright, his body trembling.
These two marriages were the last wishes of the Tai Family’s ancestor, how could they be nullified just like that?
Long Yunzi might be strong, but he was just one person.
If the Tai Family brought forth all its experts, Long Yunzi wouldn’t stand a chance.
But such words, Tai Rong dared not utter.
He just nodded obediently, meanwhile pondering how to extricate himself from the situation.
After a few seconds.
"Long Yunzi, my position in the Tai Family isn’t high, and I can’t decide on major issues. However, I think your words make a lot of sense. After all, young people’s marriages should be their own decision. Once I return, I’ll surely convey your words to our clan leader, how about that?"
Tai Rong deliberated as he spoke.
"Very well."
Ye Yun nodded.
He could see that at this moment, this kid Tai Rong was still somewhat unwilling to give up.
If the Tai Family wasn’t thoroughly subdued, this matter would spawn many troubles.
If it weren’t for the sake of Tai Gu today, and Ye Yun’s desire to build good rapport with Empress Xuan Bing, he would have killed these unrelated pests with one sword swing according to his usual temper.
"Then I shall return to the Tai Family now..."
Tai Rong clasped his hands in respect, speaking with a courteous expression.
"Bring all of these people back too!"
Ye Yun gently waved his hand, releasing the Stasis Technique.
Those God King level experts collectively heaved a sigh of relief, regaining their mobility in an instant.
Everyone glanced at Ye Yun with lingering fear, not daring to express their anger.
Tai Rong thanked once more.
Ye Yun squinted slightly and said coolly: "Tai Rong, you all leave first. In a month, I’ll visit your Tai Family and have a personal chat with your clan leader..."
"Alright, I’ll definitely relay your words to our clan leader."
Tai Rong responded respectfully.
"Get lost!"
Ye Yun waved dismissively.
Seeing Long Yunzi being so blunt, Tai Rong dared not show a trace of anger on his face, turning around to leave with those Divine King realm cultivators.
On Emperor Fall Mountain.
All the clan members of the Di Family witnessed the entire process, left speechless in shock.
Missy’s partner was truly too powerful.
So many God King realm experts were not his equal.
Ye Yun paid no heed to the shock of the crowd, his body flickering lightly before disappearing into the void.
In the next moment.
Ye Yun appeared in a courtyard.
The Di Family father and daughter were confined here.
Ye Yun pushed the door open and walked straight inside.
Emperor Jiuying and Di Dao Lin were currently under house arrest here.
Both of them were restricted and could not move freely.
Seeing Ye Yun walk in.
Di Dao Lin was the first to smile, a very comforting smile: "I knew you would come..."
"Uncle Di, I’m sorry for your suffering."
Ye Yun quickly walked up, tapping gently on both of them to release their restrictions.
"Long Yunzi, those Tai Family people are all gone, did you kill them all?"
Emperor Jiuying, after recovering her cultivation, scanned Emperor Fall Mountain with her Divine Sense, and asked in surprise.
"No, I chased them away."
Ye Yun replied with a smile.
Seeing Emperor Jiuying’s surprise, he further explained: "They can be counted as the descendants of Tai Gu, and since they haven’t committed any atrocities at Emperor Fall Mountain, I spared their lives..."
"I see, I understand now."
Emperor Jiuying smiled sweetly.
She had also been to Mysterious Ice Cave, knowing Tai Gu, so upon hearing Ye Yun’s explanation, she was relieved.
Di Dao Lin stood aside, gazing at the young couple, a faint smile on his face, saying nothing.
Although he and his daughter were under house arrest, Di Dao Lin remained calm, having told the Tai Family nothing about Long Yunzi.
After all, Long Yunzi was too strong, and his background was extremely mysterious; he couldn’t casually reveal anything about him.
Even though they had been under house arrest for quite some time, Di Dao Lin was always at ease, knowing Long Yunzi would come to rescue them.
Regarding the Tai Family, even though it ranked as a Divine Emperor level power, Di Dao Lin wasn’t worried that Long Yunzi couldn’t contend with them.
Long Yunzi had already proven his strength in the Mysterious Ice Cave.
What about Divine Emperor realm powerhouses?
One sword would be sufficient.
Ye Yun looked toward Di Dao Lin and said: "Uncle Di, I’ve promised that Tai Rong that I’ll visit the Tai Family in a month to resolve this matter properly, so there’s no need for you to worry about anything!"
"Okay."
Di Dao Lin nodded decisively.
Emperor Jiuying stood by smiling, watching Ye Yun with a heart full of mixed emotions.
Back outside the Three Fire God Cult, she, a prestigious Nine Heavens Divine King, looked down on a little cultivator of Divine Venerated Realm, who has now grown to a stage where even Divine Emperor realm powerhouses can be obliterated.
It truly was unbelievable.
Fortunately, she agreed back then to be his Daoist partner, and by a twist of fate, a special bond formed between them.
Emperor Jiuying might feel unworthy of Long Yunzi, but she couldn’t suppress her affection towards him.
"Jiuying, I have some Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruits here for you to enhance your cultivation base..."
Ye Yun took out a Storage Ring, smiling as he handed it to Emperor Jiuying.
Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruit?
Emperor Jiuying’s face lit up with delight, taking the ring and inserting a wisp of Divine Sense into it, her delight rendered her speechless.
Inside the ring.
There were dozens of Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruits, ranging from two thousand years to a whopping ten thousand years old.
It was terrifying.
The ten-thousand-year-old Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruits were extremely rare throughout the Divine Land, priceless and beyond reach.
"This is too precious..."
Emperor Jiuying was mind-blown, her hands trembling as she handed the ring back to Ye Yun.
"These Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruits are rare, but they don’t do much for me. Just keep them!"
Ye Yun chuckled, pushing the ring back to Emperor Jiuying with his hand.
Gazing at Ye Yun, Emperor Jiuying’s eyes shimmered, her emotions surging.
She was too moved for words.
"Mysterious Yin Zhu Fruits are good treasures, cultivate well. When we meet next time, I hope to see you achieve a breakthrough!"
Ye Yun advised Emperor Jiuying with a smile.
"Mm!"
Emperor Jiuying nodded.
"Uncle Di, Jiuying, I have other matters to attend to now and cannot delay any longer, so I’ll take my leave!"
Ye Yun cupped his fists as he spoke.
"Alright, go take care of your business. Feel free to visit Emperor Fall Mountain when you have the chance."
Di Dao Lin said with a carefree smile.
He understood clearly that someone with Long Yunzi’s strength undoubtedly bore many crucial responsibilities on his shoulders and couldn’t linger indefinitely at Emperor Fall Mountain.
Ye Yun reminded Emperor Jiuying a few more times before leaving Emperor Fall Mountain.
He tore through the void, flying for a while, then entered that ancient city and, taking the Teleportation Array, headed straight west towards Peach Blossom Island.
