"Second Brother, do you think Sixth Brother is overthinking things?"
On a boat, the two leisurely made their way towards Liuzhou. They had no intention of catching up with their sister-in-law, Murong Yunji. Murong Yunji was a former candidate for the next female clan leader of the Greedy Wolf clan, possessing almost all of Greedy Wolf's techniques. Her Divine Movement technique was the strongest in history; few in the world could catch her. On the grasslands, she was known as the Wind King ...
This title wasn't self-proclaimed; it was recognized by the four kingdoms of the northern grasslands. If the Northern Yan royal family had been able to keep this person in the country back then, the Seven Cities of Youyun might not have been lost last year, or at least they wouldn't have suffered such a crushing defeat.
After all, it was Yuchi Feihong who defeated the Crown Prince of Northern Yan, and the most powerful patriarch of the Yuchi Household never got the better of this woman!
"Your sixth brother is always cautious, you know that." Shen Yiyun, the Lao'er of the Shen Family, was leisurely playing with the ornament in his hand. Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that it was a bracelet made of white bones.
"Could that crazy woman have tricked us into revealing the secret formula and sent it north?"
"She doesn't have that many ulterior motives," Shen Yiyun laughed. "After all these years, don't you know her personality? If she were interested in the family's interests, she wouldn't have agreed to the bet so easily and given up the position of patriarch of the Greedy Wolf family so readily."
"Your sister-in-law is only interested in the strong. Do you know why I dared to use those three idiots from the first wife's family?"
Upon hearing this, the Laojiu shook his head, clearly somewhat bewildered. A closer look would reveal that although the Laojiu of the Shen Family was thin and ugly, resembling a little old man, and even looked more experienced than Shen Yiyun, those who knew the inside story understood that the Laojiu of the Shen Family was actually only in his early thirties, while the Lao'er of the Shen Family was already over two hundred years old!
"Your sister-in-law doesn't care about her three children at all."
"Huh?" The Laojiu, who was usually focused on cultivation, rarely heard his second brother talk about this kind of thing, and asked curiously, "Why don't you care? I heard you're his biological son, and if you don't care, why are you in such a hurry to stand up for yourself?"
"Weak wolf cubs are eliminated in a wolf pack, regardless of whether they are biological children or not." Shen Yiyun chuckled. "She doesn't care because in her eyes, the three children are too weak and not worth her time. As for why she's in such a hurry to step forward?"
"Just looking for some fun..."
Just then, a jet-black python appeared in the cabin and coiled up at the doorway.
Laojiu was taken aback and looked over. "Weren't you with that woman?"
The spirit snake is a special breed raised by the main branch. It has extremely high tolerance for water and is one of the few creatures that can withstand Murong Yunji's Divine Movement technique.
The python gently raised its head, flicking its tongue and uttering a chilling murmur, "She's on the warship; she doesn't need me anymore."
"A warship?" Both of them were taken aback. Shen Yiyun frowned. "Whose ship is it?"
" Yuchi Feihong..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yiyun's smile vanished, and his expression unusually grim. "Then this is a bit troublesome..."
--
"I heard... you slept with the Crown Princess of Northern Yan?"
Murong Yunji sat casually on the mast, looking down at the soldiers below, her shapely legs swinging gently on her bare feet.
The leader, a nine-foot-tall man, grinned, revealing a terrifying scar on his face that exposed half of his teeth, making him look quite gruesome. The wound was clearly fresh.
"Three days, seventeen times!" The man chuckled. "As expected of the Heavenly Wolf Family, they can really take a beating. If it weren't for needing to anger your Yan Kingdom's stupid crown prince, I really wouldn't have bothered killing them..." The man stroked his chin, sizing up the woman's swaying legs. "You should be more robust than your niece."
"Is that so?" Murong Yunji was not angry when she heard this. Instead, she laughed so hard that her large breasts shook violently. But the soldiers below did not dare to slack off.
They were all veterans, and they knew very well how the Wind King had earned his reputation on the grasslands. When it came to massacring cities and killing people, their general was still a baby when this woman became famous...
But no matter how careful they were, it seemed to be of no use. No matter how focused they were, all the veterans still lost sight of the woman.
In the blink of an eye, that fiery body was already in front of his general. Before Yuchi Feihong could even react, a woman's hand was already caressing his face.
Yuchi Feihong tensed up, his face still smiling, but his eyes no longer held the same unrestrained arrogance as before.
Rumor has it that Murong Yunji was born to the old patriarch and the wolf king with the purest bloodline of the grasslands. She is a true demon-monster hybrid with Bloodline Power that rivals that of top-tier aristocratic families.
Now it seems the rumors were true; this was the first time he had ever seen a sorcerer so fast that even his eyes couldn't keep up!
"Sea corpse venom?" Murong Yunji chuckled. "You went to the West Sea?"
Yuchi Feihong's pupils contracted, and his face darkened.
The Shen Family is indeed involved in the affairs of the West Sea!
Before coming to Liuzhou, he received a secret decree from His Majesty to track down the patriarch of the Shen Family. However, when he chased him all the way to the West Sea, he witnessed an extremely terrifying scene. This mission was of great importance, and he brought all his elite troops from the north, namely the Flying Dragon Guard who had previously defeated the Yan army.
But when faced with that terrifying situation, ninety percent of his soldiers died after only suffering minor setbacks!
He himself almost got burned there.
They rushed back so hastily that they didn't even bother to search for the surviving soldiers, all to quickly report to His Majesty on the situation in the West Sea.
So he was genuinely wary when the woman boarded the ship.
The patriarch of the Shen Family went to the West Sea, and then the terrible natural disaster that is now happening West Sea occurred. What I heard and saw was extremely frightening, and I had to report it immediately. At this time, the women of the Shen Family came to my ship.
Yuchi Feihong believed that she had come to silence him, because this woman might actually have the ability to do so!
"Is it General Yuchi? Shen Yiyun requests an audience!"
Just as things were about to escalate, a loud voice rang out, causing Murong Yunji eyes were filled with murderous intent, to curl her lip in boredom.
Yuchi Feihong frowned. He knew he couldn't be distracted by the woman in front of him, but Shen Yiyun's reputation still kept him from losing focus.
Ghost Sorcerer: Shen Yiyun, one of the top-level dangerous individuals marked by the Yin-Yang Academy. His internal Yin Ghost Sorcery is also a well-known dangerous technique in the magic world. Back then, when the King of Han was defeated, he fled to Jiangnan with countless elite troops under his command, intending to occupy Jiangnan and continue to contend with the imperial court.
They all died at this man's hands!
"Sister-in-law..." Shen Yiyun looked at Murong Yunji was touching Yuchi Feihong's neck, from a distance and laughed, "Brother's body is barely cold, you can't be so blatant..."
"Tch..." Murong Yunji curled her lip, withdrew her hand, and stretched lazily. "He's a bit inferior to his younger brother. If Yuchi Peng didn't have such a strong body odor, he might be qualified to have a child with me."
Yuchi Feihong: "..."
"Sister-in-law, watch your words!" Laojiu said coldly.
"You want to too?" Murong Yunji teased, looking at the Laojiu, then shook her head. "You can't, your body is too weak."
"You..." Laojiu's face flushed red, and he was about to lash out when Shen Yiyun helplessly stopped him, saying, "Alright, don't make the General laugh at us."
He then bowed to Yuchi Feihong and said, "General, would you be so kind as to entertain me?"
Yuchi Feihong glanced at the black snake at the other man's feet, then smiled and said, "With the esteemed members of the Shen Family family here in person, how could I dare not entertain them? Please board the ship!"
Shen Yiyun, Murong Yunji, and that Shen Family's Laojiu strength is unknown—the three of them together, even with my 30,000 troops still intact, might not be able to withstand them. In my current state, if they really wanted to silence them, I really wouldn't be able to.
Let's be more generous.
Shen Yiyun smiled and thanked them. The python carried the two of them smoothly onto the boat, and a group of soldiers stepped aside at Yuchi Feihong's signal.
" General Yuchi went to the West Sea?" Shen Yiyun asked, looking at Yuchi Feihong's wounds as soon as he boarded the ship.
Seeing that the other party had brought it up, Yuchi Feihong didn't mince words and coldly sneered, "Your Shen Family... don't you have anything to say about the West Sea matter?"
"We don't know much..." Shen Yiyun spread his hands and honestly said, "Ever since the old man gave birth to the Laoshi'er years ago, he hasn't spoken to us. We also gathered the information about the West Sea ourselves."
"Could we share this?" Yuchi Feihong asked with a smile. "What exactly is your old man planning to do?"
"Sigh..." Shen Yiyun sighed, "Since the general has gone to the West Sea, he should understand that the current situation West Sea is definitely not something my old man could have caused."
"All seventeen kingdoms were destroyed, what exactly was that thing?" Yuchi Feihong asked coldly.
"Look..." Shen Yiyun said helplessly, "General, you went there yourself and paid such a high price, but you still didn't figure out what it was. How could we, who only rely on intelligence personnel, possibly know more than you, General?"
"Is that so?" Yuchi Feihong smiled upon hearing this. "Then what brings you gentlemen here to see me?"
"This is truly a misunderstanding..." Shen Yiyun quickly waved his hand, "We wouldn't dare cause trouble for the General. It's just that my sister-in-law's sons have been detained by the newly appointed prefect of Liuzhou, and we're rushing to ransom them..."
"The Prefect of Liuzhou?" Yuchi Feihong was stunned. "He detained the Shen Family family?"
"That's right..." Shen Yiyun sighed, "The children were causing trouble and offended the prefect, so... they're all being detained there. Those children were pampered by my eldest brother; they've never suffered like that before. My sister-in-law couldn't sit still when she heard about it. Look at the two of us, we can't even catch up with them."
"You're planning to ransom them?" Yuchi Feihong asked with a strange look.
"Isn't this what the prefect demanded...?" The other person pulled out a piece of paper. "Here, a formal notice, demanding we go and redeem the person, or face legal judgment."
Yuchi Feihong stared at the notice, his expression momentarily stunned, then shifting between anger and uncertainty. These three people, making such a grand entrance, were they really just there to make things difficult for a mere prefect of Liuzhou?
And that new prefect, I remember his name is Chen Qing, right?
Detaining the Shen Family? Are you out of your mind?
Anyway, let's just take it one step at a time...
"I happen to be going to Liuzhou, so I'll see you all off."
"Thank you very much, General!"
