Yuchi Cheng's expression shifted slightly, and he reprimanded, "Xiao Wan, don't be disrespectful to Young Master Ye!"
Yuchi Cheng had personally witnessed Ye Kunlun draw the Son of Heaven Sword and cripple the King of Black Mountain!
Yuchi Wan had only recently returned, and he hadn't fully informed her about Ye Kunlun's affairs.
At this moment, if Yuchi Wan spoke rudely to Ye Kunlun and angered him, all his efforts would be in vain.
Ye Kunlun glanced indifferently at Yuchi Wan.
With just a look, Yuchi Wan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, as if she were being stared at by something terrifying. Her legs went weak from fear.
Seeing this, Yuchi Cheng quickly reached out to support her and apologized to Ye Kunlun, "Young Master Ye, Xiao Wan is my sister. She's been spoiled by our elders. Please don't take it to heart. I apologize to you on her behalf."
Ye Kunlun's gaze returned to its usual calm. He smiled at Yuchi Cheng and said, "Patriarch Yuchi, you are too kind. I am not that petty."
"Since I have obtained the wordless book, I will not disturb Patriarch Yuchi any further. Farewell!"
With that, Ye Kunlun left with Xiao Jiu.
It was only then that Yuchi Wan realized she had been so frightened by Ye Kunlun's gaze that her entire body was drenched in sweat.
Yuchi Cheng, on the other hand, let out a sigh of relief, as if the Yuchi family had just walked back from the gates of hell.
After obtaining the wordless book from the Yuchi family, Ye Kunlun only had the two pieces from the Yan family and the Nangong family remaining.
As for the piece belonging to the Nangong family, it had been taken by Nangong Lie's eldest son, Nangong Hu.
At present, Nangong Hu should be in the Northern Territory.
Ye Kunlun planned to find Nangong Hu and borrow that piece of the wordless book when he headed north.
"Xiao Jiu, you go back to the Wujian Prison first. I'm going out."
After giving Xiao Jiu a few instructions, Ye Kunlun went to the Huichun Hall.
Uncle Long seemed to be out on business, so Ye Kunlun familiarly entered his room and then stepped into the secret chamber.
Ye Kunlun, of course, did not have the jade pendant to activate the teleportation array!
However, the last time the array was activated, Ye Kunlun had captured the spatial trajectory.
While Ye Kunlun could not achieve long-distance spatial traversals, Long Qi was at the Shanhe Stage, which was only about ten miles from Huichun Hall. Ye Kunlun could manage to traverse this distance!
Ye Kunlun stood within the formation and the next second poured his spiritual energy into it!
With a hum, the formation activated!
In an instant, Ye Kunlun disappeared from the formation!
Forcefully using a spatial teleportation array was extremely prone to spatial backlash. Even Ye Kunlun, without control over spatial power, had to be cautious!
Spatial turbulence, like sharp arrows, assailed Ye Kunlun!
Ye Kunlun's body was surrounded by a green radiance. The spatial turbulence struck him but could not harm him in the slightest.
In a flash, the scenery before Ye Kunlun changed, and he appeared in Long Qi's room.
From within the tent, Long Qi sensed Ye Kunlun's presence and quickly said, "Little scamp, you came without even letting Uncle Long know."
"Uncle Long is not here, and I was worried about Sister's health."
As Ye Kunlun spoke, Long Qi emerged from the tent.
Her complexion looked much better now that her stone pulse had been temporarily relieved, and an aura of the supreme ruler flowed around her.
Even Ye Kunlun felt an urge to prostrate himself upon sensing that aura.
Long Qi was the Empress of Huaxia, the supreme ruler, embodying the destiny of all Huaxia. Her presence naturally exuded a commanding aura in every gesture.
Even if Long Qi wanted to deliberately suppress it, she could not completely hide it.
However, Ye Kunlun frowned at this moment because he keenly sensed that the stronger the destiny power on Long Qi, the more severe the backlash from the bloodline curse within her body!
"You've noticed?"
Long Qi observed Ye Kunlun's expression, her voice growing colder. "The curse in my bloodline is likely targeting the Huaxia imperial family. Someone behind this wants to sever the bloodline of the Huaxia imperial family!"
"Moreover, the bloodline curse can devour my destiny."
Although Long Qi's tone was cold, it was more filled with helplessness. "The perceived deficiency in Huaxia's destiny might be related to the bloodline curse within my body."
Ye Kunlun nodded.
When he had first unblocked Long Qi's stone pulse a couple of days ago, he hadn't noticed this. Now, he saw it more clearly.
The bloodline curse could indeed devour Huaxia's destiny.
Ye Kunlun's expression turned solemn. Even he couldn't implant a bloodline curse that could devour destiny into someone right after birth, or even before birth!
He had never heard his master mention such a method.
However, fortunately, his Myriad Ancient Starry Sky Art could temporarily suppress the power of the bloodline curse.
"Sister, I plan to head north in a few days to try and find a way to resolve your bloodline curse," Ye Kunlun stepped forward and said to Long Qi.
"Don't force yourself in this matter. Moreover, your journey north this time might not be smooth," Long Qi showed a worried expression. "Eunuch Yuwen came to report yesterday that the ancient sects are making a move and might disregard the agreement made with the Shanhe Stage back then."
Upon hearing this, Ye Kunlun's gaze turned cold, and he said in a chilling voice, "Sister, if they come, let them come. I will slaughter them all."
"I never knew you were so bloodthirsty before."
Long Qi looked at Ye Kunlun, whose face was filled with killing intent. She took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from her embrace and handed it to Ye Kunlun.
"Keep this jade pendant," Long Qi said, pressing it into Ye Kunlun's hand. "This jade pendant is called the Shanhe Pendant. It was born from the destiny of Huaxia and is a congenital spiritual treasure. There are two such pendants, one dragon and one phoenix..."
As she spoke, two blushes appeared on Long Qi's cheeks.
"Sister, this item is too precious."
Ye Kunlun could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within the jade pendant. This item was extremely important to Long Qi.
"If I tell you to take it, then take it!" Long Qi raised her eyebrows, showing a hint of anger.
"Uh, alright."
Seeing Long Qi's anger, Ye Kunlun quickly put away the dragon pendant.
Only then did Long Qi smile. "The Dragon Pendant can dissolve your killing intent and keep your spirit clear. It only has benefits for you and no harm!"
"However, it's quite a coincidence, but I also have something to give to Sister."
Ye Kunlun said with a smile.
Hearing this, Long Qi's eyes lit up. "What is it?"
A piece of pitch-black 'coal' appeared in Ye Kunlun's hand, the very piece he had obtained from the dark market a few days ago.
"What is this thing?" Long Qi asked with a puzzled expression.
"This item is called 'Dark Gold'!" Ye Kunlun explained to Long Qi, while igniting the Pure Yang Fire in his palm.
Under the scorching of the Pure Yang Fire, the Dark Gold soon reacted. The outer black layer slowly melted, revealing a dark golden luster, appearing extremely mysterious.
"Sister, I need a drop of your vital blood!" Ye Kunlun said to Long Qi.
As Long Qi's vital blood merged into the Dark Gold, the Pure Yang Fire in Ye Kunlun's palm grew more intense.
"Now is the time, Sister, integrate your divine sense into the Dark Gold and control it with your will!"
Ye Kunlun shouted.
Long Qi did not dare to delay and followed Ye Kunlun's instructions.
When her divine sense merged into the Dark Gold, the Dark Gold in Ye Kunlun's hand actually flowed like water, transforming into whatever she imagined.
Ye Kunlun looked at the small figure formed by the Dark Gold, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
What Long Qi imagined was actually him...
