Setting Things Right

I accumulated 11 points a few days ago, and now I've got 20 points back! What a huge profit!

But Yang Shan had no intention of ending things there.

Yang Shan will have to stay in the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground for a while, under the identity of Cheng E.

In theory, there's always an opportunity to interact with Yun Yun during this time! Yang Shan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief:

"That's good! I had been thinking that Miss Nalan was now caught between the sect and her family, and was already in a precarious situation. Senior Yun Yun could only rely on me, so I'm sure Senior Yun Yun would be happy to see me here. It seems I wasn't just being presumptuous."

Yang Shan's language description has "problemed" again!

"The only one I can rely on," "It's all wishful thinking on my part."

Is this the kind of term that seniors and juniors would use to address each other?

But Yun Yun couldn't find a reason to refute Yang Shan.

so.

Yun Yun memorized the formula "Yang Shan = Reliance"! [Ding! Player, please note that Yun Yun has developed inexplicable feelings for you. Yun Yun's favorability +2, current favorability: 49!]

A bottoming out and rebounding is like this: high risk, high reward.

A previous decrease in favorability is very likely to lead to a series of consecutive increases in favorability.

But Yang Shan knew that it was impossible to increase Yun Yun's favorability simply by using these emotional entanglements.

You can't use the same tricks all the time.

Sincerity and practicality are fundamental.

Without sincerity and practicality, all the tricks are just sand in your hands; they'll be gone as soon as the wind blows!

Yang Shan's expression turned serious again. "Senior Yun Yun, this formation restricting you was set up by your master, so you should know how to break it, right?"

When Yun Shan mentioned Yun Yun, her expression never improved. "Of course I know. This formation is called the ' Wind Lock Array.' It only requires a Dou Wang level expert to break it in a short time. However, once this formation is triggered, my master will definitely sense it."

Yang Shan: "Understood. The formation is not important. What is important is how to deal with Yun Shan and the other Dou Zong is currently in seclusion in this Back Mountain Forbidden Ground."

"Yang Shan, you really don't need to save me. To be honest, even if you did save me, I wouldn't know what to do."

At this point, Yun Yun said self-deprecatingly:

"It seems I can't win back my master anymore. He wants to use the Misty Cloud Sect to further his ambitions."

Yun Yun recounted to Yang Shan how she had overheard Yun Shan and Protector Wu's conversation and how her attempt to dissuade Yun Shan had failed.

Yun Yun had been suppressing too much in her heart, and Yang Shan became the only person she could confide in.

Therefore, at this time, Yang Shan became an absolutely excellent listener.

All you need to do is listen!

Through Yun Yun's narration, Yang Shan also gained a general understanding of Yun Yun's current state of mind.

In her previous life, Yun Yun was completely disillusioned with Yun Shan, so she left the Misty Cloud Sect and went to Central Plains.

In Yang Shan's view, Yun Yun has been so defeated that she has lost all fighting spirit.

We don't know what lies ahead, nor what way to retreat.

If, at this moment, a potentially feasible path were offered to Yun Yun, Yang Shan said softly, "Senior Yun Yun, have you thought this through? Are you disappointed in Yun Shan, or in the Misty Cloud Sect?"

"Ah?"

Yun Yun was somewhat bewildered:

"It's all my master's ambition, why should I be disappointed in the Misty Cloud Sect?"

Yang Shan said leisurely, "Senior Yun Yun, you've been the sect leader for so long, how could you not know the true nature of some of the powerful elders in the Misty Cloud Sect?"

Yun Yun fell silent.

Yun Leng was Yun Shan's old subordinate. After Yun Yun succeeded as the sect leader, she had no interest in power and only wanted to develop the Misty Cloud Sect and fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Misty Cloud Sect's predecessors and Yun Shan.

Therefore, Yun Yun allowed Yun Leng to hold real power.

It's fair to say that Yun Leng Misty Cloud Sect! If the Misty Cloud Sect is divided into two factions, the Sect Master and the Great Elder, then the Great Elder's faction's power completely overwhelms the Sect Master's faction! Yang Shan: "Senior Yun Yun, if Yun Shan hadn't stepped forward to take charge of the Misty Cloud Sect, how many people do you think would listen to you within the sect?"

Yun Yun thought for a moment, "When I was still the sect leader, I was mainly concerned with cultivating the disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect. I also personally promoted many stewards and some disciples who had made great contributions were promoted to elders by me. However, most of them were disciples from recent generations and did not have much real power."

Yang Shan nodded. "I understand. If we follow Senior Yun Yun's plan, then Yun Shan should not destroy the Misty Cloud Sect's resources. After all, Yun Shan also needs the Misty Cloud Sect to collect souls for him and hand them over to that Protector Wu in order to gain more benefits."

"Of course, Yun Shan is currently facing resistance from other forces in the Jia Ma Empire. Conflict and fighting are inevitable, and casualties are unavoidable. Yun Leng is Yun Shan's old subordinate, so Yun Shan will certainly value people from Yun Leng's faction."

Yang Shan did not continue speaking.

But Yun Yun understood perfectly well.

The faction of the Great Elder was preserved as much as possible, and the main casualties were those disciples that Yun Yun had taught!

Yun Yun unconsciously clenched her fists.

She is not heartless.

The talents that were once nurtured and trained by the Misty Cloud Sect have now become cannon fodder in Yun Shan.

Besides being even more disappointed with Yun Shan, Yun Yun must also harbor considerable resentment in her heart.

Yang Shan: "Do you hate yourself for being useless, for being unable to change anything?"

Yun Yun said softly, "Yes, ever since I broke through to the Dou Emperor, I've believed that as long as I'm here, the Misty Cloud Sect will never fall. I never imagined I'd be so useless."

Yang Shan laughed and said, "Don't look so dejected, it doesn't look pretty."

Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Yang Shan: "You keep calling me 'senior,' yet you speak so frivolously!"

With Yun Yun's personality, when has she ever given anyone the cold shoulder?

This is clearly the kind of coquettishness one displays in front of a lover!

Even the usually composed Sect Master Yun Yun couldn't overcome this hurdle! Yang Shan: "Senior Yun Yun, things are not impossible. You should know that I still have some connections in the Jia Ma Empire!"

Yun Yun: "I know that in the Mittel Family, your word carries more weight than Mitier Tengshan's!"

Yang Shan: "I have two close friends who serve as generals in the Imperial Family. Nalan Yanran, True Disciple of Senior Yun Yun, and the other is the eldest daughter of the Nalan Family. The Azure Cloud Association has targeted the Alchemist Guild several times before. With the Imperial Family, Mitier and the Nalan Family taking the lead, it is not difficult to invite Grandpa Fa Ma to come and have a chat."

Yun Yun: "What do you want to say?"

Yang Shan: "I want to say, Senior Yun Yun, you can actually take advantage of this situation to regain control of the Misty Cloud Sect! Only in this way can you stop Yun Shan and truly protect the Misty Cloud Sect!"

In her previous life, Yun Yun was utterly disappointed and left alone.

Now, Yang Shan wants to help Yun Yun reclaim the Misty Cloud Sect! This is an absolutely lengthy process.

During this process, the only person Yun Yun Yun can rely on will have a lot of interactions with her! Yang Shan is not worried that Yun Yun will eventually take over the Misty Cloud Sect and will stay in the Misty Cloud Sect.

Because Nalan Yanran will grow! Once Nalan Yanran can stand on her own, Yun Yun will naturally choose to retire.

Yun Yun will leave Misty Cloud Sect sooner or later! The outcome is the same, but the process is completely different.

Yang Shan wanted to raise Yun Yun Yun's favorability to over 60 before she went to Central Plains and became the young sect leader of the Flower Sect!

Yang Shan's words allowed Yun Yun's heart, which was almost suffocating, to breathe fresh air again.

Yun Yun had no choice but to admit it.

She was smitten!

What Yang Shan said was her only chance to set things right! Yun Yun seemed to hesitate for a long time before finally mustering the courage to ask, "Why are you willing to help me like this?"

Why?

Yang Shan thought about it carefully, "Just think of me as someone who is helping the Mittel Family, so I'm trying to seduce you!"

When the word "just consider" appears, it often means that the speaker is making excuses or prevarications.

Yang Shan even added, "Of course, you still have to pay me for my trouble! Once you save Misty Cloud Sect, if you don't repay even a penny of the favor, I will definitely sever all ties with you."

That's enough to say.

As for the rest, let Yun Yun fill in the blanks with her imagination! With 49 points of favorability, could she possibly imagine anything bad?

Yang Shan stood up:

"Now is indeed not a good time to rescue you, but Senior Yun Yun, I must remind you, I may not show any mercy to the people of Yun Leng's faction!"

Now that things have come to this, Yun Yun knows that losses among the Misty Cloud Sect's personnel are inevitable.

So she simply nodded silently.

"I understand. Yanran knows which disciples I've promoted. You'll be there then."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Yang Shan breathed a sigh of relief:

"Alright, although I haven't found out that Yun Shan has returned yet, I probably shouldn't stay any longer. Senior Yun Yun, I'll take my leave now."

As Yang Shan was about to leave, Yun Yun's heart was filled with reluctance. She closed her eyes and spoke as if resigned to her fate, "Yang Shan!"

Yang Shan: "Senior Yun Yun, is there anything else?"

Yun Yun: "You're already Dou Emperor, there's no need for you to call me senior anymore."

Yang Shan: "No way! I, Yang Shan, have always been very polite. Senior Yun Yun, I'll be going now. See you next time!"

After saying that, Yang Shan disappeared in a flash.

Yun Yun was so angry her hair almost stood on end. "Politeness? When you were talking about my My Yun Yun before, did your politeness go to waste?"

"That Yang Shan, he's infuriating! Infuriating!"

Yun Yun's original graceful and noble temperament is like a flower whose petals have been frantically plucked, and it is now unrecognizable.

[Ding! Player, please note that your words and actions have caused Yun Yun to become extremely dependent on you. Yun Yun's favorability towards you has increased by 3. Current favorability: 52!]

After receiving the system notification, Yang Shan had once again become "Cheng E", chuckled and immediately activated his Dou Qi Transformation Wings, flying out of the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground and heading towards the front mountain.

Support Yun Yun to regain her position as the Misty Cloud Sect Master.

Misty Cloud Sect already knew who could be killed and who couldn't within the Yang Shan! Next, it was time for his "Punish Evil Promote Good" undercover performance! He would lead the people of the Misty Cloud Sect to strike hard against players from other factions.

Then, he led Mitier's men to strike hard against the elders of the Misty Cloud Sect, leaving Yun Shan isolated!

And he, the renowned Blade Sovereign of the Northwest Continent, will make a fortune in this great melee!
