"Young Master Yun, I've said that I'll pay you a visit in order to learn your jade skills!" Xue Siyu appeared a little shy. After all, it was not appropriate for a woman to visit the Residence of Yun, but she had still come.
"Miss Xue, please. I, Yun Feixue, will definitely teach you everything I know!" Yun Feixue said with a smile.
These were the heartfelt words of Yun Feixue. It must be known that Xue Siyu came from Bingcheng, and she was also a princess of Bingcheng.
No matter what, he had to establish this kind of kindness. Not to mention that Bingcheng itself was a powerful force in the cultivation world, but Xue Siyu herself already possessed an extremely terrifying strength. One must know that she was only twenty years old.
According to Yun Feixue's guess, her cultivation had already surpassed the Body Tempering Tenth Layer to reach the secret realm that countless people yearned for.
"I wonder if you've finished what you wanted to do!" Ten days had passed, and Xue Siyu had not come to Hidden Dragon City specifically to gamble. Thus, Yun Feixue was somewhat curious about the matter that she had specifically come to the Hidden Dragon City for.
"Sigh, I'm very disappointed. I didn't find it. Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about the jade bet!" Xue Siyu said with a serious expression.
"Alright then, it's just that... As I said before, I can teach you, but I also need this necessary reward! " Yun Feixue smiled faintly.
If someone was here, he would probably be scolded badly. Xue Siyu visiting was an honor for your Residence of Yun, yet you actually asked her for compensation. You're too arrogant.
However, Xue Siyu did not feel that something was wrong. She said, "That's only natural. You don't have the obligation to teach others your skills for no reason at all."
"It just so happens that I need two types of medicinal herbs. If you can help me find them, I would be truly grateful!" Yun Feixue said with some anticipation.
"Herbs?" That's easy, you say, what is it? " Xue Siyu said without the slightest hesitation.
"Ten stalks of Scorching Sun Grass and a bottle of Earth Flame Essence!" Yun Feixue said tentatively.
This was a material that allowed him to quickly cultivate the Nine Yang Immortal Body Technique. The reason why he didn't mention the Three Emperor Furnace was because he was afraid that someone would suspect the Nine Yang Immortal Body, so he decided to find the treasure himself.
"These two are indeed difficult to find. However, you need not worry. At most three days. I will have someone bring them over to you within three days …"
After Xue Siyu finished speaking, she suddenly turned her head and said to the air behind her, "You heard it, right? These two medicinal ingredients, find them for me in three days."
As her voice fell, Yun Feixue saw three figures faintly appear behind her. They heard Xue Siyu's words and said, "Princess, let Old Third go and search by himself. We still have to protect your safety here."
"Don't dawdle, the Residence of Yun is safe. Besides, do you think I can encounter any danger in Hidden Dragon City with my strength? Hurry up and get me what Young Master Yun needs?" Xue Siyu hurriedly said.
"This... "Alright then …" The three of them shook their heads helplessly. The princess had ordered them to obey, so they could only glare at Yun Feixue viciously before disappearing from the spot.
Yun Feixue was dazzled by the sight of such a ghost-like sacred art. He had no choice but to step up to a new level in terms of the overall strength of Bingcheng.
"Alright, since you're so straightforward, then I won't be unreasonable. To distinguish between a piece of good jade and bad jade, there are three basic steps!" Yun Feixue said.
"Which three steps!" Xue Siyu listened attentively.
"One look, two sniffs, three strokes!"
Without waiting for Xue Siyu to ask, Yun Feixue continued, "One look, which is to say, you have to see the brilliance of the color of the jade. Many experts would be able to roughly see the quality of the jade at the first step."
"Two sniffs. If you can't be sure after reading it, then go and sniff the jade."
"Does the jade smell?"
"Of course, jade also has a taste. It has a natural flavor. The purer the quality the jade is, the fresher the taste and even has the effect of awakening one's spirit."
Xue Siyu immediately nodded her head. These things were things that she had never come into contact with before. Now that she heard Yun Feixue speak of it, it was truly a vast and profound knowledge.
"Three touch, as the name implies, using your hand to feel the quality of the jade, the higher the quality, the smoother the jade is like an infant's skin, making it hard for people to let go …"
Although the three steps were simple, to truly proficient in them required a certain amount of time and experience. When Yun Feixue was imparting these basic steps to Xue Siyu, the soldiers that had besieged the Plum Blossom Manor immediately came before the Emperor with Hong Yan in the lead.
The Plum Blossom Manor was an organization that dared to threaten the safety of the Residence of Yun; they even held the Residence of Yun hostage. This was an unforgivable crime.
Back in the day, the Cloud Leap Empire had bowed down to the enemy, and now that Yun Fei was dead, these Jianghu organizations dared to threaten his descendants. This was unacceptable no matter where he went.
The dozen or so core members of the Plum Flower Manor were all dragged to the front of the emperor, Dongfang Jianxiong. Yun Feixue did not personally step forward, as he had long handed over this series of matters to Hong Yan.
Although Yun Fei was gone, the Residence of Yun and Yun Feixue, the organizations of the martial arts world and those who wanted to take the Residence of Yun into their own hands had better weigh the pros and cons.
No matter what, the emperor still sided towards the Residence of Yun. Yun Fei's death meant that the emperor had treated him shamelessly, and now that his descendant was not properly protecting him, he would probably lose part of his people.
In addition, the emperor had personally betrothed Grand Preceptor Wen's granddaughter to Yun Feixue. Just this alone was enough to show that the emperor was very protective of Yun Feixue.
Therefore, the result of the incident was that the elites of the Plum Flower Manor were beheaded and the emperor had even given the Residence of Yun a spiritual pension of ten thousand taels of gold. Of course, all of this money was looted from the Plum Flower Manor.
The Residence of Yun was still the same Residence of Yun back in the day. Although Yun Fei had disappeared, his surname was still Yun.
Xiao Wuye had undoubtedly suffered a loss because of his silence. Did he dare to plead on behalf of the Plum Blossom Manor's people in front of the Emperor?
If you dare to plead, then you are a bandit from the martial arts world who works with the Plum Flower Manor. Even if your father has the military power, the necessary punishments will still be inevitable, even if we have to investigate deeper into the matter. The fact that the Plum Flower Manor dared to kidnap the Yun Mansion's Xiao Cui was an order from you, Xiao Wuye, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Xiao Wuye didn't want the Plum Blossom Manor to disappear just like that, but after thinking about it, he decided that he couldn't say anything. Otherwise, he would only be on fire.
How could he have known that before he could vent his anger on Yun Feixue, this fellow would take the initiative to attack him? The entire Plum Blossom Manor was gone in an instant, and he could not even utter a single peep.
"Yun Feixue, I really didn't think that a little bastard like you would have such balls!" Within the Xiao family's manor, Xiao Wuye paced back and forth. This resentment, coupled with the failure of the jade bet from before, made it even harder for him to kill Yun Feixue.
"Looks like we can only let the Yun Manor's people make their move. I didn't want to expose him earlier, but this Yun Feixue must die. After he dies, I'll turn the Yun Manor upside down and I'll never believe I won't be able to find that item!" Xiao Wuye muttered to himself. In front of him, there were many generals of the Xiao family who did not dare to make a sound.
Since Xiao Gan wasn't here, then Xiao Wuye would be the leader of the Xiao family. Even if Xiao Qian was here, they would have to be respectful to him.
Xiao Qian had long since broken through to the peak of Body Tempering Level 10. Coupled with his astute mind, it could be said that it was only a matter of time before he would take over the military power of the empire.
"Report, your subordinate has something to report!" Suddenly, a voice came from the door, an ordinary dressed young man hurriedly walked over.
"What is it?" Xiao Wuye said impatiently.
"Yes …" It's like this. The people you bought at the Residence of Yun have already … "They're all dead …" This young man was obviously a bit timid and afraid that Xiao Wuye would vent his anger on him if something bad happened to him.
"What?" Say that again? " Xiao Wuye took a step forward, grabbing the front lapel of the young man's clothes, and shouted angrily.
"You... Those people you planted in the Residence of Yun are all dead … " The young man was sweating profusely, but he had to say it again.
"Bastard!" Xiao Wuye cursed angrily, and almost threw the young man out the door with one hand.
Xiao Wuye's chest rose intensely, and when his breathing calmed down, he asked: "Do you know how he died?"
"I heard that he died fighting with the experts of the Plum Flower Manor." The young man lowered his head and said.
"Bullshit, which person in the Plum Blossom Manor doesn't know them?" Everything was fine. They were even going to cut down one of their own? Yun Feixue, you're really good, you're really good! I underestimated you in the past, but you dared to do this to me, so don't blame me, Xiao Wuye, for being cruel! " Xiao Wuye almost roared like a wild beast.
"But... "But …"
"But what? Speak!" Xiao Wu Ye roared.
"Young Master, please think for a moment. Xue Siyu will pay a visit to Yun Feixue. It seems that she has no intention of leaving the Residence of Yun for the time being!" The young man said hurriedly.
"Xue Siyu …" Xiao Wuye suddenly felt like he was going to explode. This chain of events was going to drive him crazy.
When he was in Bingcheng, he had tried his best to woo Xue Siyu, but the latter was basically untouchable to him. Yet now, she actually took the initiative to pay a visit to this useless trash, Yun Feixue?
"Good, good, good! You have successfully provoked the anger of I, Xiao Wuye, and I will allow you to experience the fate of provoking me, Xiao Wuye!"
A series of three "good" words was sufficient to prove that Xiao Wuye was right on top of everyone else, after all, the Xiao family had the military power. Although Xiao Wuye did not dare to openly attack Yun Feixue, but in this Hidden Dragon City, if he wanted to play some tricks, he was afraid that others would not even know how they died.
"I heard that Azure Flower Hall's number one player, Ling'er, has a unique crush on Yun Feixue. This Yun Feixue seems to have a lot of feelings for her as well. Kui She, go to the Azure Flower Hall and buy Ling'er for me!" Xiao Wuye said with cold eyes.
