The Visitor Means Trouble! You're the Visitor...

At the Misty Cloud Mountain, palaces and pavilions are scattered in a well-organized manner, shrouded in mist and clouds, resembling a fairyland.

Two streaks of light pierced through the sea of clouds, hurtling toward the Sect Leader Main Hall, the core of power within the Misty Cloud Sect.

A strong wind brushed against their faces, causing Yun Yun's white skirt and Xiao Yan's white Cloud-Weaving Brocade to flutter and rustle.

Once out of the disciples' sight, the imposing aura of a sect leader emanating from Yun Yun quietly dissipated, replaced by a deeper gentleness and concern.

She turned her head slightly, looking at the increasingly resolute and handsome profile of the boy beside her. His clear, cool eyes reflected undisguised joy and affection.

"You little rascal, you've caused me trouble as soon as you got back." Yun Yun's voice was still clear amidst the howling wind as she scolded softly, "Yun Han is Yun Leng's grandson after all. Even though I dismissed him from his post, he still has some influence within the sect. And you, without saying a word, just threw him down the mountain."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's lips curled into a playful smile. He did not turn his head, his gaze remaining fixed on the majestic hall ahead.

"When that brat yelled at me, he didn't show the slightest respect for 'Senior Brother.' So what if it's Yun Leng? He's just a Dou Wang. Even he would have to stand at attention when he sees me. Yun Han and Ge Ye are just two Da Dou Shi. How dare they be so insolent in front of me? Besides..."

At this point, Xiao Yan paused, his tone slightly mischievous.

"Master, you just straightened my collar in front of all the disciples and spoke up for me, which moved me deeply. Now you're 'blaming' me? Do you think I didn't handle it well enough? Do you want me to go back and drag that old man and child up again, and throw them around in front of Yun Leng again?"

"Quiet down for a bit!" Yun Yun's pretty face flushed slightly as she glared at him reproachfully, but she felt no blame whatsoever. Instead, a sweet feeling welled up inside her at his teasing, tinged with affection. "Of course, your teacher will support you; it's the respect you deserve. I'm just worried that old man Yun Leng might use this as an excuse to disturb the old sect leader who's in seclusion on the Back Mountain. Yun Leng is my teacher's junior brother, so he's practically my senior uncle. If things really escalate, it won't look good."

"The scene isn't going to look good?" Xiao Yan snorted lightly, his eyes turning slightly cold. "If things really escalate, my fists aren't to be trifled with. With my current strength, I'm not afraid of even a Dou Zong expert. I want to see who can make my teacher Yun'er suffer any injustice while I, Xiao Yan, am around!"

Feeling the undeniable domineering and straightforward affection in Xiao Yan's words, Yun Yun's heart trembled slightly, and her cheeks flushed.

This kid has become even more assertive than he was in the Monster Mountain Range last time, but she actually quite likes having someone protect her like this.

Although she is the Misty Cloud Sect Master and Dou Huang expert, she is still a woman with a soft spot in her heart that needs someone to protect her.

Moreover, when this child was fighting as Dou Wang, he was able to contend with the Sixth Tier Amethyst Winged Lion King. Now that he has advanced to Dou Emperor, his aura seems to be only slightly inferior to hers. It is estimated that his combat power is at least at the level of a six or Seven-Star Dou Emperor. Although she does not know how powerful this child is, she believes that she has a certain understanding of her beloved disciple. He is not a boastful person.

Since that's the case, then he does indeed have the trump card of the opponent being Dou Zong expert, which puts her at ease quite a bit.

However, this kid is quite bold, daring to flirt with me in the Misty Cloud Sect.

Yun Yun couldn't help but recall some things that happened in the cave, and her pretty face became even more flushed.

Xiao Yan didn't feel embarrassed at all. Before coming, he had already used his soul power to temporarily seal the Storage Ring of Venerable Skyfire and Old Yao outside.

While part of the reason was to avoid attracting the attention of the Soul Hall, the main reason was to avoid the psychological burden of betraying one's master and disciple.

Otherwise, if he were to shout and flirt with the female teacher outside, calling her "teacher" repeatedly, the teacher inside the ring would be quite embarrassed.

However, Old Yao had no right to criticize Xiao Yan for this, since Xiao Yan was also a descendant of the same lineage in his behavior of rebelling against his master.

The Old Yao master even had a female teacher!

Yun Yun's mind raced with thoughts before she realized Xiao Yan suddenly fallen silent. She quickly took his hand and said softly:

"Alright, alright, I know you're something else! I'll naturally agree to the alliance, but Misty Cloud Sect is the largest sect in the Jia Ma Empire, with many elders, so it's not good for me to make decisions unilaterally. But now that you're here, everything will be easier. Could you help your teacher out?"

Seeing Yun Yun's gentle demeanor and the way she looked at him with such longing, Xiao Yan's vanity was greatly satisfied.

"This is easy!"

Xiao Yan shook his head and said in a literary tone.

"Ha ha!"

Seeing this, Yun Yun smiled happily. She had been waiting for Xiao Yan to come to the Misty Cloud Sect for far too long.

In front of Xiao Yan, she no longer wanted to put on airs as a sect leader or teacher. She just wanted to be an ordinary woman, nestled peacefully in her man's arms, and enjoy a happiness she had never experienced before.

As they spoke, the two flew to the plaza in front of the Sect Leader Main Hall and landed slowly.

The vast plaza was empty and solemn, and the Cloud Mist Stone gleamed with a warm luster on the misty mountaintop.

The disciples on duty in the distance looked solemn, but their eyes couldn't help but follow the two figures that descended from the sky—Sect Master Yun Yun and the mysterious and powerful young Dou Wang beside her.

Xiao Yan landed calmly and naturally stood half a step behind Yun Yun.

Since there were still outsiders present, Xiao Yan decided to just go through the motions.

However, Yun Yun was clearly not satisfied with just this small step.

She didn't turn around, but her slender hand, which had been hanging by her side, reached out with remarkable precision to her side and behind, concealed by the wide sleeves of her robe.

A warm and delicate touch came over me.

Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback, then a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Without the slightest hesitation, his slender fingers immediately gripped back, tightly enveloping that soft, boneless hand in his palm.

He could feel the slight tremor in her fingertips; it wasn't nervousness, but more like... excitement?

Yun Yun's body stiffened visibly for a moment, but she maintained the dignified demeanor of the sect leader. However, the two people's clasped hands, hidden by their wide sleeves, became a secret sweetness that no one could see in this solemn square.

"Come with me."

Yun Yun's voice remained cool and clear, but it had gained a touch of softness.

She showed no intention of letting go, and naturally took Xiao Yan's hand, walking towards the majestic hall that symbolized the highest power core of the Misty Cloud Sect.

With graceful steps, her moon-white skirt fluttered gently in the mist.

The disciples on duty lowered their heads even further, their hearts churning with turmoil.

They dared not look directly at him, but they could tell that their sect leader had great trust in this young Dou Wang expert, and their relationship seemed extremely close!

Could it be that...

They dared not think too much about it, but only glanced at the two as they entered the main hall.

The heavy, ancient palace doors slowly closed behind us, shutting out the noise and prying eyes of the outside world.

The hall was spacious and high, with star and cloud patterns painted on the dome, creating a solemn and dignified atmosphere.

A faint sandalwood scent lingers, adding to the tranquility.

The moment the last ray of sunlight was cut off, the imposing aura of a sect leader that Yun Yun possessed vanished without a trace, as if ice and snow were melting away.

She turned around abruptly!

Those clear, cool eyes shone with an astonishing light, filled with undisguised longing and joy, and she threw herself directly into Xiao Yan's arms.

"My little apprentice, your teacher misses you so much!"

Back on her own turf, Yun Yun completely dropped her pretense, wrapping her arms tightly around Xiao Yan's waist and burying her face deep in his chest, which exuded a familiar scent.

Caught off guard, Xiao Yan was knocked back half a step before regaining his balance.

He instinctively tightened his arms, holding her tightly in his arms.

"Yun'er."

He called out softly, his voice low and gentle.

"Um..."

Yun Yun gave a muffled response in his arms, greedily absorbing his warmth and scent, as if trying to make up for the time they had been apart.

After a long while, she raised her head slightly, her eyes a little red. She bit her lip and stared straight into Xiao Yan's eyes. Although she didn't say a word, it seemed as if she had said a lot.

Xiao Yan looked down at the stunningly beautiful face so close to his own, his heart overflowing with tenderness.

He raised his hand and gently brushed away the tears from the corner of her eyes with his fingertips.

Their eyes met, intertwining like threads, and the atmosphere became more ambiguous.

"Teacher, your disciple now... wants to do something."

Xiao Yan suddenly spoke with a smile.

"Varied..."

Before Yun Yun could even voice her question, she suddenly caught her breath.

Xiao Yan lowered his head and pressed his lips to hers!

"Hmm..."

All words were silenced.

This kiss, domineering and passionate, carried the boy's long-suppressed longing and intense emotions, instantly shattering the already weak defenses in Yun Yun's heart.

Her hand, which instinctively tried to push him away, slipped limply the moment it touched his chest, and finally gripped Xiao Yan's neck tightly.

Her moon-white robe, a symbol of the sect leader's majesty, was crumpled, but she was completely unaware.

Inside the hall, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood incense, while outside, clouds and mist swirled and billowed.

Inside the solemn and majestic Misty Cloud Sect, the Misty Cloud Sect leader and her personal disciple embraced and kissed passionately.

They were shielded from worldly scrutiny and temporarily set aside the responsibilities and potential crises of their sect.

At this moment, there was only the intertwining of their breaths, the rapid beating of their hearts, and the deep love that had been suppressed for so long, finally being released.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

After an unknown amount of time, until both of them were breathless, Xiao Yan reluctantly stepped back a little, his forehead touching hers, their noses meeting, their breaths mingling.

Yun Yun's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were glazed, and her lips were especially red and moist from the kiss just now.

She was slightly out of breath, looking at the boy so close to her, his eyes filled with an intense, unyielding love and a hint of smug mischief.

"You... you traitorous disciple!" she gasped, her voice weak and feeble, more like a lover's coquettish complaint. "You've grown increasingly audacious, daring to do this in the Sect Leader Main Hall..."

"This disciple accepts the punishment," Xiao Yan chuckled, his fingertips once again caressing her slightly swollen lips from the kiss, his eyes deep and unfathomable. "But... is Teacher truly willing to punish me?"

Yun Yun playfully punched him, but didn't break free from his embrace. Instead, she buried her face in the crook of his neck again, her voice barely audible.

"You little rascal, you're absolutely wicked!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled and didn't expose the beautiful teacher who was so addicted to role-playing.

To be honest, Xiao Yan was also quite excited to be having fun like this at the Misty Cloud Sect.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Yun Yun exclaimed in surprise.

Xiao Yan then picked her up and carried her deeper into the Sect Leader Main Hall.

"You..."

A hint of panic flickered in Yun Yun's eyes. Although she had been excited, she hadn't prepared herself to be beaten up the moment they met!

"Xiao... Xiao Yan, what are your plans regarding the alliance? The Misty Cloud Sect has been confined to a corner of the world for years. Although it is the number one sect in the empire, it is only a second-rate power in the Northwest Continent. In two months, it will be the Sect Assembly held every five years. Many empires in the Northwest Continent will participate. What are your plans then?"

She quickly discussed serious matters with Xiao Yan, hoping her little disciple could calm down and not do anything outrageous in this place.

"Sect Assembly?"

Xiao Yan paused in his steps.

He did have some recollection of this Sect Assembly. It was said that Elder Hai had fought a Dou Emperor and a Dou Wang single-handedly at the Sect Assembly, becoming famous in one battle.

He never expected that his alliance would encounter such a main quest during its early stages.

What are the specific benefits of this Sect Assembly?

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment before asking.

"There are benefits, of course. This is a platform for many empires and sects to demonstrate their strength. In the Dou Qi Continent, strength is paramount, which is also of great benefit to the development of the alliance. If we can achieve a good ranking, it will be easier to deter some surrounding forces or attract some powerful individuals to join us."

Yun Yun said earnestly.

"Alright, once the alliance is finalized, I'll take a few people with me."

Xiao Yan had enough confidence in his strength. He nodded calmly and continued walking deeper into the main hall.

"Hey! You!"

Seeing Xiao Yan continue forward, Yun Yun wanted to say something more, but then she noticed that Xiao Yan's expression suddenly darkened.

"What's wrong? Are you angry with me?"

Yun Yun thought she had been too reserved and had displeased Xiao Yan. Although she felt a little wronged, she decided to give in to her little disciple. Just as she was about to sit up and offer a kiss, Xiao Yan put her down.

Boom!!!

The next moment, an indescribable and powerful pressure suddenly rose into the sky from the direction of the Back Mountain without warning!

This overwhelming pressure, vast as an abyss and heavy as a mountain, instantly tore apart the tranquil clouds and mist Misty Cloud Mountain, enveloping the entire summit.

The warm and pleasant atmosphere inside the hall instantly froze!

Upon sensing this familiar aura, Yun Yun immediately became flustered.

She now understood why Xiao Yan had looked so serious.

Although this aura enveloped the entire mountaintop, it clearly showed extra "attention" to the Sect Leader Main Hall.

This is aimed at her, or rather, at Xiao Yan!

She recognized the owner of the aura; it was none other than Yun Shan, the former sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect who had been in seclusion all along, and her teacher!

"Xiao Yan..."

Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yan with worry. She really hadn't expected Yun Shan to suddenly emerge from seclusion at this time.

"I'm not angry with you, it's just... this person doesn't seem to have good intentions."

Although Xiao Yan put Yun Yun down, he still wrapped his arm around her waist and held her tighter, showing his attitude through his actions. He looked towards the Back Mountain and murmured to himself.

"Um... it seems you're the one who came here."

Yun Yun leaned closer and whispered a reminder.

Xiao Yan: "..."
