Chapter 2294: An Unexpected Coincidence

Sunclear messages seemed to have appeared in Xie Daoyun’s mind. She tried to make sense of it, but there seemed to be a thick fog separating that information from her awareness. She couldn't see the contents inside clearly at all.

She suddenly felt a stinging pain in her head, then staggered and couldn't stand still anymore.

“Are you really okay?” Jiang Luofu asked while supporting Daoyun. She noticed that the latter's hands were ice-cold and felt really worried.

At that moment, Ji Xiaoxi appeared next to Daoyun. She quickly checked the latter's pulse, then took out a small white pill to feed her. “Big sister Xie, this medicine can help you regain mental energy. Your mind has been exhausted too severely, and this medicine can help you.”

“Thank you, Xiaoxi.” Xie Daoyun swallowed the pill and felt a refreshing sensation spread from her throat. Then, it entered her head and made her stressed and tense mind immediately clear up. She couldn't help but be amazed. Ji Xiaoxi had obtained her father’s real inheritance after all! Her medicinal skills were incredible.

“You absolutely can't use what you just did recklessly in the future. Even though it's powerful, it’s still too much for your current cultivation,” Jiang Luofu reminded Daoyun with a frown.

“Thank you, martial aunt.” Xie Daoyun felt warm inside when she sensed her concern. But the earlier situation was way too strange. She didn’t know how to explain it.

Jiang Luofu said with a smile, “You can just callbig sister. Callingmartial aunt suddenly makesfeel really old.”

“But...” Xie Daoyun was a bit troubled. Jiang Luofu was her master's martial sister. If she called her big sister and the people at the academy heard it, they would criticize her for being impolite.

Jiang Luofu could see through her misgivings and said, “We can change the address depending on where we are. Callmartial aunt at the academy, but you can just callbig sister in private.”

“Okay.” Xie Daoyun’s face reddened. She was really grateful to Jiang Luofu. In the past, as the principal of Brightmoon Academy, Jiang Luofu had always taken good care of her, and it was the sin the academy. She had always really admired Jiang Luofu for her carefree and independent way of living.

“Then lethear you callbig sister already,” Jiang Luofu said with a smile.

“Big siste,” Xie Daoyun said, still a bit shy.

“You’re really a good girl.” Jiang Luofu pinched Xie Daoyun’s cheeks.

Ji Xiaoxi was about to cry, protesting, “Ah, then wouldn't I have to call her aunt in the future?”

She'd been of equal standing with Xie Daoyun before, but if Daoyun was now the little sister of her little aunt, didn’t that suddenly make her a generation younger?

Jiang Luofu’s usually cold face now had a trace of a smile. “You guys can just continue calling each other the sway. You don’t have to worry about these things.”

Xie Daoyun also held Ji Xiaoxi’s hand and continued to call her little sister. Ji Xiaoxi’s sadness finally turned to laughter.

...

Meanwhile, based on the information he had just obtained, Zu An decided to pay the Yun clan a visit.

The Suolun Clan Master hurried over, first thanking Zu An with incredible sincerity, then taking out the White Tiger Stone and handing it over. “Since the True Demon Emissary wants this item, something big will definitely happen when the Four Symbols Stones are gathered. Bringing this along might be of use to you.”

The Yun Clan Master’s eyes widened. He was completely stupefied. After all, he had tried everything, using both the carrot and the stick for the sake of the White Tiger Stone. He'd joined up with the other two clans and met on the battlefield, losing so many people as a result, and yet the Suolun Clan Master hadgiven it to Zu An just like that!

Zu An didn’t refuse, as he also wanted to find out what secrets these Four Symbols Stones had. When he received the White Tiger Stone and gave it a look, he saw that it was about the size of a piece of jade. There was a white tiger pattern on it, but it seemed to have naturally formed rather than being carved. He couldn't tell what kind of material the stone was made of; it was icy cool to the touch, but seemed to carry a fierce and harsh nature behind it that probably cfrom the white tiger pattern.

“This thing is indeed mysterious...” Zu An sighed.

Just then, the Suolun Clan Master said, “By the way, the True Demon Emissary wanted the four clans to offer up saintesses, which means they must have an important use too. Shi’er is the Suolun clan’s most precious saintess, so she should also follow the regent to the Yun clan and take a look. She will listen to what the regent asks of her.”

The other three clans immediately raised their eyebrows. They'd thought that Suolun Xing was a hot-headed and impulsive person, but now, it seemed he was actually incredibly cunning! Helping the regent? He was clearly just giving out his daughter, to give her more opportunities! If she spent more twith him, with Suolun Shi’s appearance and intelligence, it wouldn’t be that hard to gain the regent’s favor.

Suolun Shi was a smart woman, so she naturally knew what her father was thinking. Her pretty face immediately becentirely red. She was naturally willing to follow the regent, but her reservation as a young lady still made it a bit hard for her to agree in front of so many people.

Fortunately, Zu An nodded and said, “That’s not a bad idea. Then, we’ll take her to the Yun clan's territory. I want to see just what that True Demon Emissary is up to.”

Suolun Shi sighed in relief when she heard that, saying, “I am willing to help the regent!”

The other clans naturally weren’t opposed to the plan, so the matter was decided. Thus, Suolun Xing stayed behind to clear up the mess, while Zu An took the other three Clan Masters on the flying ship to hurry to the Yun clan's territory.

When they got onto the flying ship, the Rong and Wu Clan Masters were amazed. At the stime, they thought to themselves that it was no wonder the humans were so powerful. They were always able to cup with all sorts of ridiculous inventions.

Zu An then began to question the Yun Clan Master. With how things stood, the latter acknowledged his fate and answered almost everything. All he sought was to be able to keep his life.

“By the way, just what is going on with this Yun clan saintess?” Zu An suddenly remembered that after considering Suolun Shi's circumstances.

Yun Yuqing was also curious. Just where had the Yun clan gone to find such a perfect saintess candidate?

The Yun Clan Master replied, “She is indeed of the Yun clan bloodline. Actually, she has a bit of a connection with Yuqing.”

“With me?” Yun Yuqing’s first assumption was that it was Yun Jianyue, but she immediately rejected that suspicion. The two of them had been together in the capital, so the timing didn’t match up.

“She is your aunt’s daughter.” The Yun Clan Master sighed deeply.

“My aunt!” Yun Yuqing’s expression changed.

“That’s right. Your aunt and your father had similar natures. They were both willful and rash. Your father had all kinds of affairs everywhere, and your aunt was also always chasing skind of love.” The Yun Clan Master started sounding angry as he spoke. “Then, your aunt went to the human world and actually ended up falling in love with a human, even giving birth to a child. Unfortunately, she chose the wrong person and she met a terrible end.”

The Yun Clan Master had a hint of mockery on his face as he continued, “If she had just followed the clan’s arrangements and married the one we chose for her, she might already have been an important individual among the Fiend races by now. Yet in order to chase sfleeting love, she ended up losing her very life. It truly is laughable!”

Yun Yuqing was feeling a bit sad when she heard about her aunt’s fate, but Zu An had a strange expression as he asked, “Your Yun clan’s saintess isn’t surnamed Pei, is she?”

“How did you know?” The Yun Clan Master was a bit surprised. “Her nis Pei Mianman. But we changed her surnto Yun, because the saintesses should be from our respective clans.”
