A mysterious woman resembling Yu Youwei appears and finds her and Gu Zhan Tian dead from poison. She investigates, learning they were attacked by the Semi-Demon Sect. Disguising her grief, she questions a group of cultivators and learns about a powerful benefactor who intervened, mistaking another cultivator for the benefactor. She resolves to find the true benefactor within the Unborn Secret Realm.

"I wonder if I can find that white-clad youth this time..."

During her flight, the green-clad beauty murmured to herself, a look of confusion occasionally flashing in her eyes.

She is currently worried about two things.

The first is her concern that she can’t find the white-clad youth, as the Unborn Secret Realm is too vast and her cultivation base isn’t high.

The second is her worry about how to approach the white-clad youth once she finds him, and how to stay by his side.

"I am quite beautiful, considered a national treasure, and with my cultivation base at the Seventh Level of the Deity King Realm, I could probably be his companion, right?"

An astonishing thought suddenly surfaced in the green-clad beauty’s mind.

Her face then flushed red.

She seemed to think this idea was somewhat too forward.

As she was feeling uneasy, a white streak of light suddenly rushed from afar.

"It’s him!"

The green-clad beauty saw the figure within the white streak and instantly showed an expression of surprise and joy.

There is no denying it.

Her luck was too good.

She had coincidentally encountered the white-clad youth, met this mysterious benefactor.

The green-clad beauty took a deep breath and, without hesitation, rushed up to block the white-clad youth’s path.

"Huh?"

Ye Yun halted, looking at the green-clad beauty with a face full of surprise.

How come Yu Youwei is alive again after a while?

"No, it’s not that girl; the two look very similar..."

After taking another glance, Ye Yun concluded.

Such resemblance; perhaps they are sisters, he thought.

The green-clad beauty stared at Ye Yun’s handsome face, feeling her heart shamefully quicken its pace.

This charming white-clad man, despite being much lower in realm than her, inexplicably possessed an indescribable allure to her.

Such allure made it difficult for her to control herself.

It’s as if the thought that had formed in her mind earlier transformed into a devil, continuously urging her to become this white-clad youth’s companion.

"Why do you block my path?"

Ye Yun asked first.

"Esteemed friend, may I ask your name?"

The green-clad beauty steadied herself, asking nervously in a trembling voice.

"Ye Yun."

Ye Yun chuckled, directly revealing his name.

After all, in the Ancient Realm, no one knows him.

"Friend Ye, I am Yu Lingfei, Yu Youwei’s sister..."

The green-clad beauty, Yu Lingfei, gazed at Ye Yun, speaking with great excitement.

"So you’re the sister of that girl. Why, you block my path to demand accountability?"

Ye Yun squinted slightly; his voice turned cold.

It seems her sister blamed him for Yu Youwei’s death, so she sought him out, blocking his way.

"My sister... betrayed the team and left, she deserved to die!"

Yu Lingfei blinked, speaking heavily.

What?

Ye Yun was mildly astonished.

Yu Lingfei’s words were not what one would expect from a close sister.

For the time being.

Ye Yun was puzzled by Yu Lingfei’s intentions.

Could this woman be trying to lull him with words and then attack while he’s unprepared?

"Friend Ye, where is the young man in coarse clothing who was with you earlier?"

Yu Lingfei looked around Ye Yun, suddenly asking.

"He perished."

Ye Yun showed no mercy, making up a reason.

Yu Lingfei was startled, her face turning pale, sighing, "This Unborn Secret Realm is indeed perilous; even at the verge of the God Emperor Realm, one falls!"

"Yes, so I don’t plan to explore this Unborn Secret Realm either!"

Ye Yun smiled.

His smile held deep meaning.

He had specifically mentioned the Dragon Tree as deceased, thinking he, a God King Realm First Layer, should appear insignificant to her.

If Yu Lingfei wanted revenge, she would act at this moment.

Ye Yun prepared himself, and if this woman attempted harm, he wouldn’t spare her.

Someone seeking to kill him.

He would retaliate with slaughter.

Yu Lingfei stared at Ye Yun’s charming face, swallowing hard, saying difficultly, "Friend Ye, my sister is dead, and your protector is dead. I am alone with nowhere to go; shall I be your protector?"

Be my protector?

Ye Yun was taken aback by Yu Lingfei’s words, unable to help widening his eyes.

Is this woman crazy?

Her sister died indirectly because of him, yet she wants to be his protector instead of seeking revenge?

For as long as he lived.

Ye Yun had never encountered a woman so questionable in her intellect.

"No need."

Ye Yun waved his hand, rudely refusing.

Seventh Level of the Deity King Realm as a protector is simply too weak.

"Friend Ye, you don’t have to reject so quickly. I can be your protector without asking for anything in return. How about considering it?"

Yu Lingfei spoke earnestly.

To get in good with the mysterious benefactor, she shamelessly persisted.

"There’s nothing to consider."

Ye Yun declined once more.

"Friend Ye, you can’t be so heartless to me..."

Yu Lingfei’s eyes reddened, suddenly crying sorrowfully.

"I’ve taken no advantage of you; what are you saying? Move, don’t block my path!"

Ye Yun frowned.

Yu Lingfei licked her plump lips, her face flushing, quivering as she said, "If it’s really not protectors you lack, then how about I become your companion, would that be okay?"

Be my companion?

Ye Yun widened his eyes again, scrutinizing Yu Lingfei.

This woman’s state is unlike mourning a sister...

Rather like an infatuated admirer.

Though Ye Yun has confidence in his appearance, never had he met such a shameless woman.

Something’s not right.

There’s something off with this woman.

Ye Yun gradually walked toward Yu Lingfei, stopping within ten feet.

"Who exactly are you?"

Ye Yun asked sternly, his gaze like two sharp swords, exuding intense presence.

Yu Lingfei jumped, never expecting a God King Realm First Layer white-clad man to have such an aura.

"I’m Yu Youwei’s sister!"

She smiled bitterly.

"You’re lying."

Ye Yun sneered, suddenly pointing a finger, and launched the Stasis Technique.

Her body was unexpectedly immobilized; Yu Lingfei was extremely shocked, realizing this God King Realm First Layer, Ye Yun, possessed such a powerful Divine Skill.

A Seventh Level Deity King as herself couldn’t evade it.

Ye Yun’s gaze turned cold: "Speak, who are you really?"

"I..."

Yu Lingfei hesitated, panic filling her heart.

Though unafraid to die, encountering a mysterious benefactor and being killed by him would be a loss.

Buzz!

Ye Yun’s pupils contracted, deep in his eyes countless tiny Purple Rune changes occurred. At that moment, he activated the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye, invading Yu Lingfei’s sea of consciousness.

Unwilling to speak?

Fine.

Then invade directly for the information needed.
