Chapter 2282: Experiences and Past

“Sure!” Yun Yuqing’s eyes immediately lit up. Even now, she just couldn't figure out why the people from her clan had ended up betraying her at the Jiang manor. Afterward, those clan experts had decisively ended their lives without any hesitation, so she couldn't even ask them if she wanted to. She has always felt ill at ease since then, sensing that something big had definitely happened within the Demon race.

Yun Jianyue frowned slightly. In the end, she shook her head and said, “I don’t care about the Demon race’s affairs, and I don’t want to be involved with them at all. I won’t be going.”

Zu An was a bit surprised. He'd thought that since she had some Demon race heritage, she would be interested, but she didn’t even want to travel with him this time. Not wanting to force her, he asked, “What are you planning to do from now on?”

“Return to the Lake of Hatred, of course. I reckon that news of my appearance in the capital has already traveled back. Everyone will soon know that I appeared in court. The entire Holy Sect might fall into a panic, and some people might even stir up trouble,” Yun Jianyue replied.

The Devil Sect was famous for having scoundrels, and yet they were now on the same side as the court and orthodox folk. What would the rest of the world think of that? If the Devil Sect lost their unified purpose, it would easily result in disaster everywhere.

Zu An couldn't help but say with a smile, “In my opinion, you should just give your sect master position away to someone else soon, and then come to my side.”

“What, come to your side and just be a flower… Ahem.” Yun Jianyue realized that her sister was still here and quickly changed her tone. “I am the respected Holy Sect Master. Wouldn’t others laugh themselves to death if they found out I defected to your side?”

Yun Yuqing had a strange expression on her face. Why didn’t these two sound like a junior and a senior at all in their conversation? They actually sounded like a pair of lovers bantering flirtatiously.

When he sensed her confusion and Yun Jianyue’s hints, Zu An could only add, “The Devil Sect is too small-scale, and this world still mainly follows the orthodox path. WIth your talent, you’d be able to satisfy your aspirations more easily on this side.”

Yun Jianyue shook her head. “Everyone has their own ambition. There’s no need for you to advise me any further.”

She knew the only reason for the court to not completely wipe out the Devil Sect was that she was its sect master. Whether it was Zu An’s cultivation, prestige, or resources, they all vastly exceeded what Zhao Han had ama.s.sed. If the court really wanted the Devil Sect gone, it really would face the threat of annihilation. She didn’t want to become the Devil Sect’s greatest sinner.

“Don’t worry, I'll definitely think of a way to lead the Holy Sect on a new path.” A mysterious sense of confidence appeared on her face as Yun Jianyue spoke.

“Alright then,” Zu An replied. He knew she was a proud person, and he actually felt a bit of admiration for her.

Yun Jianyue remembered her disciple and suddenly asked, “If you're going to the Demon race's territory, should I take care of Honglei?”

Zu An shook his head slightly. “There's no need for that. She's perfectly safe at my side. Besides, I hope she'll be able to see me in the first moment when she opens her eyes again.”

Yun Jianyue couldn't help but give him a slightly sour look. But she quickly realized that she had no reason to be jealous of her disciple and gradually calmed down. “That makes sense. I don’t think there's anywhere in the entire world that could be safer than by your side. In that case, it’s time for me to leave too.”

Zu An was a bit surprised, asking, “So suddenly? You aren’t going to play around for a few more days?”

What, play as a horse for you to ride?

Yun Jianyue almost blurted those words out.

This guy just had to use my hair like ponytails, even pulling on them like reins. Even my skin was burning up…

She quickly composed herself to preserve a sense of pride befitting the Devil Sect Master. “There’s no need for that. The sect has many things to take care of, and I have to return to prepare for my cultivation breakthrough after the world merging.”

She had already made a lot of progress when she was with Zu An this time. But that kind of cultivation realm and enlightenment was just too vast and profound. She didn’t rush to immediately break through, instead taking the time to carefully experience it. Then, once the world merged and the natural ki of the world developed, she would attempt the breakthrough in her strongest condition. That would definitely bring the best results.

Yeah, once I break through, I’ll have a proper reason to look for Ah Zu…

Hmph, it’s not because I like it at all, it’s just for the sake of improving my cultivation.

She looked up after thinking that, and quickly rushed into the distance. Her long beautiful hair fluttered in the wind.

Zu An was speechless.

This woman really leaves confidently. She didn’t even turn around to give me another look.

Yun Yuqing walked to his side and looked at the figure receding into the distance. “Big sis actually hates the Demon race a lot, which is why she wasn't willing to go.”

“Oh?” Zu An was a bit surprised. He really didn’t know much about the Demon race’s affairs.

“Her mother was someone my father met while wandering through the human world. As the two spent more time together, they developed feelings for each other, and she eventually gave birth to my big sister. However, her mother’s ident.i.ty prevented her from ever being acknowledged in the clan, with no way of integrating into our society. The Demon race has never treated her all that kindly, and she even suffered a lot because of them,” Yun Yuqing explained.

“What a stupid system of cla.s.s division.” Zu An harrumphed. His mood also soured when he thought about the things Yun Jianyue and her mother had been forced to go through.

No wonder Yun Jianyue doesn’t like the Demon race much, and isn’t too close to this little sister of hers either.

“Actually, similar cla.s.s divisions exist everywhere. The humans also have many similar examples.” Yun Yuqing carefully spoke up for her clan.

Zu An figured that made sense as well. In the past, hadn’t Yu Yanluo also experienced discrimination when her real ident.i.ty was exposed? She had experienced criticism from all sides. But even though he hadn't been able to do anything about it before, he was now the leader of the humans, fiends, and Ocean races. He had the power to undo the hatred and discrimination between the different races.

“Right, I still don’t know the situation with the Demon race. Can you tell me the details?” Zu An asked. When he became the Fiend races' regent, he had learned a bit about the Demon race. But at the time, there had been many other races on par with their rank, and there had simply been too many things to take care of. As such, he didn’t really know the various details of the Demon race too well.

“The Demon race has four king races: Yun, Suolun, Rong, and Wu. I believe big brother Zu knows that.” Yun Yuqing also remembered his ident.i.ty as the Fiend races' regent.

Zu An nodded slightly. He also knew Suolun Shi was the princess of the Suolun clan. He asked, “By the way, do the Wu clan and the FIend races' royal family share the same Wu surname?”

“They don't.” Yun Yuqing shook her head slightly. “But there is a bit of a connection between them. It's rumored that the Wu clan’s first ancestor was connected to the royal family and had the imperial bloodline. Many people concluded that was just something the Wu clan claimed to elevate their own status, though. Besides, even if they were connected in marriage in the past, it's nothing more than a distant trace of royal blood. Otherwise, there would have been more historical records.”

“I heard that your Yun clan is the most powerful. Is that right?” Zu An asked curiously.

“The Yun clan is indeed the most powerful among the four great clans.” Yun Yuqing couldn't help but stick out her chest a bit in pride as she said that, but her expression immediately dimmed. “A generation ago, my father was the Yun clan’s leader, but he ended up dying an untimely death. The Yun clan has now fallen into the hands of my second uncle’s bloodline.”

Zu An felt pity and held her hand to comfort her.

No wonder even though she was the daughter of a Demon king race, she was still sent to King Wu Manor to act as a spy at such a young age.

Yun Yuqing leaned against his chest. She felt all her worries and grievances disappear. Just how great would it be if she could be like this forever?

Just then, Bi Linglong walked in with a letter in hand. “Ah Zu, Jadefall Palace's people…”
