Yun Shan, Master and Disciple
Just as Xiao Zhan and the other two were talking, Yun Shan also found Yun Yun, who was taking care of Nalan Yanran.
"Teacher!" Upon seeing Yun Shan appear before her, Yun Yun immediately stood up and bowed respectfully to Yun Shan.
"Hmm!" After checking on Nalan Yanran, Yun Shan said, "Don't worry, Yanran is fine."
Thank you, teacher!
Yun Yun breathed a sigh of relief. If something had really happened to her disciple, Yun Yun might have lived with self-blame for the rest of her life.
"Is there something you need from your visit, teacher?" Yun Yun asked.
"Yun'er..." Yun Shan glanced at Yun Yun and said earnestly, "You should know that little guy named Xiao Yan, right?"
Yun Yun's heart tightened, and she explained, "Ah? Isn't he Yanran's fiancé?"
At this moment, Yun Yun was extremely nervous, worried that Yun Shan would discover her relationship with Xiao Yan.
"Yun'er, do you know?" A sense of oppression emanated from Yun Shan, "From childhood to adulthood, every time you lie, you subconsciously clench your left hand."
Yun Shan glanced briefly at Yun Yun's jade-like hand behind her back.
"So, you still refuse to tell the truth?"
"Teacher!" Yun Yun knew she couldn't hide her secret any longer, so she could only lower her head and remain silent.
"You like that kid?" Yun Shan continued to probe his disciple's thoughts.
"I..." After hearing Yun Shan's words, Yun Yun blushed. She wanted to deny it, but then she thought of her wonderful experience, the unforgettable time in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and her encounter in the Tagor Desert...
In the end, he stammered and couldn't say anything.
Yun Shan sighed inwardly, "Oh no, there's no escaping it! The cabbage is gone!"
Yun Yun wanted to continue struggling, but Yun Shan waved his hand and said, "No need to say anything, I already understand your thoughts."
"I will not interfere with your feelings. Everything is up to you." Just when Yun Yun thought Yun Shan was going to strongly object, the latter's words stunned her.
"Teacher..." Yun Yun asked hesitantly, "You don't object?"
This is not like her teacher's style! Little did Yun Yun know that a wealthy and powerful elder of the Xiao Clan had already won over Yun Shan.
"What, why would your master object?" Yun Shan looked at his foolish disciple with amusement.
"That young man is good enough for you, and you like him. I'm not telling you to never get married."
"No, no, that won't do!" Yun Yun shook her head again. "That scoundrel is Yanran's fiancé. How can I, as her teacher, do such a thing?"
In a moment of relaxation, even the way they addressed Xiao changed.
"Fiancé?" Yun Shan squinted at Yun Yun.
"Didn't you support Yanran in breaking off the engagement? The Three-Year Agreement is over, and Xiao Yan and Yanran have nothing to do with each other anymore."
"Well..."
Yun Yun felt her face burning hot. These words made it seem as if she had intentionally ruined the marriage between her disciple and Xiao Yan.
Is this a case of the disciple not marrying but the master?
"No." Yun Yun felt she was about to agree, but finally found a reason to refuse.
"I am the Misty Cloud Sect Master. If I were to marry just anyone, what would become of the Yun Lan Sect!"
Yes! That's it! Yun Yun, you must resist the temptation!
"Yun Lan Sect?" Yun Shan seemed to suddenly remember something. "Oh right, there's also the matter of our Yun Lan Sect."
"Yun'er, let me tell you something. Our Yun Lan Sect will be disbanded in a while." Yun Shan's words left Yun Yun stunned.
She frantically tugged at Yun Shan's robes, "Teacher, what happened to the Yun Lan Sect? Why is it disbanding?"
Yun Yun grew up in the Yun Lan Sect since childhood. The sect can be said to be Yun Yun's only home. If the Yun Lan Sect is disbanded, wouldn't she become a rootless duckweed?
She was completely unable to accept the news that Yun Lan Sect was going to disband.
Moreover, the Yun Lan Sect has been thriving in recent years, so how could it possibly have fallen to the point of disbanding?
Could it be that the Imperial Family and other families are about to make a move? Although Yun Yun does not concern herself with sect affairs, she is not entirely unaware of the situation of the Yun Lan Sect.
It can be said that Yun Lan Sect has long been a thorn in the side of the Jia Ma Royal Family, so it is not surprising that it has been targeted by multiple parties.
What puzzled Yun Yun was that her teacher was already a Dou Zun Realm expert, so where did the Jia Ma Empire get the audacity to attack the Yun Lan Sect?
"You've misunderstood!" Seeing Yun Yun's flustered appearance, how could Yun Shan not understand that his disciple was overthinking things again?
"The disbandment of the Yun Lan Sect is only temporary!"
"Temporary?" Yun Yun asked, puzzled. What did that mean?
"I'm tired and want to go to the mainland to take a look around, is that not allowed?" Yun Shan rolled his eyes at Yun Yun and said somewhat angrily.
"But, teacher, the sect can still function even without you. It doesn't need to be dissolved!"
Yun Yun's words were quite blunt, which deeply hurt Yun Shan.
Your words make it sound like I'm just a freeloader in the Yun Lan Sect. All the effort I put into arranging a future for you, girl, has been wasted.
Yun Shan said irritably, "I plan to send you and Yanran to a sect in Central Plains to study for a period of time."
"The Supreme Elder is gone, the Sect Master and the Young Sect Master are gone, how do you think the Yun Lan Sect can continue to operate? Can we rely on Yun Ling, who was just recalled not long ago?"
Yun Ling is Elder at least at the Dou Wang level, and we can't afford to lose him. But if Yun Shan wants him to regain power, he is absolutely unwilling.
The last time they did this, the Yun Lan Sect was almost destroyed.
Yun Yun also considered Yun Shan's concerns, but quickly frowned and said:
"Master, why do you suddenly want to send your disciple and Yanran to Central Plains?"
"Can't you two broaden your horizons?" Yun Shan's voice sounded somewhat weary.
"Back then, I stayed in the Jia Ma Empire. If it weren't for a fortunate coincidence, I might never have been able to break through to the Dou Zong."
At this moment, Yun Yun immediately became considerate, "But Teacher is already Dou Zun expert, isn't he?"
"Dou Zun expert?" Yun Shan smiled bitterly. "That's an achievement I only attained after obtaining the final inheritance of the Life and Death Gate."
Otherwise, considering Master's talent, he's not much better than those two guys Jia Xing Tian and Hai Bo Dong.
"The Life and Death Gate?" Yun Yun asked. "Teacher, isn't the final inheritance of the Life and Death Gate only able to allow disciples to break through to the Peak Dou Wang?"
The reason she was able to become the youngest Dou Emperor in the Jia Ma Empire was because she used the power of the Life and Death Gate to reach the Peak Dou Wang in one fell swoop, and then spent several more years breaking through to Dou Emperor.
"That inheritance can only be opened by a Dou Zong expert, and only High-level Dou Zong. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to break through in the last few years."
"Let's not talk about this anymore," Yun Shan interrupted Yun Yun before she could finish speaking.
"I don't know why the Life and Death Gate left behind by our patriarch still has such miraculous effects after nearly a thousand years, but..."
"The Gate of Life and Death Gate will remain here forever. When you encounter obstacles in advancing to the Dou Zun level, you can try to break through with the power of the Life and Death Gate."
"The reason I say this is so that you can take advantage of your youth to see the heart of that continent where powerful beings abound, so that you won't end up like me with regrets."
"Do you understand?"
"Yes!" Yun Shan had already said so much, so what could Yun Yun do? Besides, she was also very curious about the scenery there, so she didn't object.
"Now you need to make a choice: which sect in Central Plains should you join?" Yun Shan said.
"Any one is fine?" Yun Yun asked.
"Yes, either one is fine."
Although this was different from what he and Xiao Han had agreed upon, Yun Shan did not think it would be too difficult to join another sect.
As expected, Yun Yun made her choice based on her impressions of the sects in Central Plains.
"This disciple wishes to join the Flower Sect!"
"Sure?"
"I'm certain!" Yun Yun said firmly.
"Prepare well, and someone will recommend you to the Flower Sect in six months." Yun Shan patted Yun Yun's head and said kindly.
"Now settle all your affairs, and go see whoever you want!" Yun Shan said meaningfully.
"Let's take this opportunity to say everything that needs to be said."
"Once we reach Central Plains, it'll be difficult to see each other again!"
"Teacher!" Yun Yun said, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, sensing Yun Shan's teasing tone.
However, she still followed her heart and went to see the person who had left a mark on her heart.
