Yun Ling and Yu Zhengqing reached the same conclusion:
Meeting force with force was a dead end, but doing nothing was hardly reassuring.
After a moment of silence, Yu Zhengqing finally spoke:
"Brother Yun, you know the situation with our Yu Family..."
"Stop, stop, stop."
Yun Ling furrowed his brow.
"Everyone knows about the mess you made back then. There's no need to bring it all up again."
When Yu Xi broke through to the eighth rank, the Yu Family had been riding high. They'd even gotten a little carried away,
so they tried to challenge the Jiang Family in the field it excelled at, despite their own shallow foundations.
At the time, everyone had thought the same thing: How could anyone have such nerve?
And, just as expected, they'd caused a colossal mess, nearly triggering a purge of the Underground City.
The fact that the Yu Family still existed today could be credited to Old Man Zhong showing Yu Xi a great deal of consideration.
If they tried to make a scene again, Yu Xi herself would probably clean house before Old Man Zhong even had to lift a finger.
"Ahem."
Yu Zhengqing cleared his throat awkwardly.
He was worried precisely because he feared the Yun Family would push him forward as their standard-bearer.
"I think you've misunderstood me."
Yun Ling shifted gears and looked at Yun Han meaningfully.
"Who said we had to provoke [Doom]?"
After getting her thoughts in order, Jiang Mian took Ye Chenyang to the original site of the Underground City.
From the look of things, Xuanhuang had probably finished cleaning up there. It would make a good base for them in this area.
With their spatial abilities, the two reached their destination in no time.
However, the scenery had completely changed.
