C72 Cloud Killing Manor

"This... Young Master, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I don't know the background of the three great powers, especially the Soul Masters amongst them. Yun Feixue did not decline. Soul masters that could take the place of a powerful individual like this were all considered top class in terms of soul power. Although he was confident in himself, he wasn't arrogant enough to defeat all the soul masters in the world, especially since his soul arts were only at the third level.

"It's alright. I just wanted you to join. My Ye Family has also invited other soul masters, but I think if you can help us, we will have a better chance of winning." Ye Qingyu asked.

However, the result was completely out of Ye Qingyu's expectations. He thought that Yun Feixue's soul power was very strong, but he did not expect it to be strong to this extent, so no matter what, Ye Qingyu could not let him leave the Thousand Illusion Island. At the very least, this was the hope of his Ye Family.

"I wonder when the mine will be setting out to sea this year?" Yun Feixue suddenly asked.

"About half a month." Ye Qingyu asked.

"Half a month? That's not the right time to do so. I have to hurry back to Hidden Dragon City or else something would happen to the Residence of Yun. Besides, I'm at a critical point in my cultivation. Half a month is too long a delay." Yun Feixue said with a frown.

If someone else were to hear these words, they would have already scolded Yun Feixue badly. If others had heard these words, they would have already scolded Yun Feixue badly.

"It doesn't matter. Our Thousand Illusion Island has the most powerful training ground. I will provide it to you. If the Residence of Yun has any problems, I will send someone to settle them for you." Ye Qingyu asked.

"If that's the case... "That's fine." Yun Feixue nodded.

What he was most worried about right now was the safety of the people in the Residence of Yun. All of the Golden Dragon Guards had been sent out, and this matter had definitely had a huge impact on the Golden Dragon Guards. If they were caught off guard and destroyed the Residence of Yun, then it would be too late for Yun Feixue to cry; this was also the main reason why he did not want to stay on Thousand Illusion Island.

"Someone, come." After entering, Ye Qingyu indifferently said, "Allow Uncle Ye Xuan to make a trip to the Hidden Dragon City's Yun Mansion. You must ensure the safety of the Yun Mansion."

"Yes." A hint of surprise flashed across the middle-aged man's eyes as he looked at Yun Feixue, but he did not ask any questions and directly turned around to leave the room.

"You don't have to worry about the safety of the Residence of Yun. Uncle Ye Xuan is an expert of the Spirit Sea Realm. He can handle him even if Dongfang Jianxiong were to do it himself." Ye Qingyu asked.

Yun Feixue was secretly surprised. The experts sent out by a force like the Thousand Illusion Island were all from the Spirit Sea Secret Realm. He reckoned that such experts were very rare in the Hidden Dragon City.

In a luxurious manor in Hidden Dragon City, it was spring all year round. Even though it was already winter, the manor was still filled with green leaves and fragrant flowers. It was like a small paradise.

Walking into the manor from outside, one could see jade-green lotus ponds crisscrossing the long corridors. The sounds of insect, fish, and birds could be heard endlessly. The exquisite armrests were carved with meticulous detail, completely blending together with the surrounding environment to form a wonderful picture.

As they walked along the corridor, they finally arrived at the end of the hall. The palace gave off a luxurious and elegant feeling, but this place was completely out of place. A dark aura emanated from the palace, causing people to shiver.

On the other side of the hallway, a figure wearing a golden silk robe could be seen gracefully walking into the hall. The golden tiger mask on his face looked quite ferocious and terrifying.

He did not conceal his aura much. That feeling of extreme danger was something that even wild beasts would have to avoid.

The moment he stepped into the hall, the entire dark space seemed to tremble for an instant. Soon after, black smoke appeared from all directions, slowly condensing into the shape of a person.

"This subordinate pays his respects to the Holy Lord." The man with the golden tiger head kneeled on the ground. His voice was filled with respect.

"Did you get it?" The person formed by the black smoke emitted two different sounds at the same time. It sounded like a man, a woman, and a sun. There was an indescribably strange feeling to it.

"Ten days have passed and there is no news from the Black and White Emissaries, nor from Wu Meng's group. I think that there is a problem." The golden-masked man lowered his head, his tone void of emotion.

"There's another problem. It's fine if you don't get the Life Continuing Pill, but you failed again. What use do I have for you all?" The human-shaped black mist let out a furious roar, its astonishing aura was like a raging storm, but the masked man remained unmoved. He was like an unshakable boulder, and no one was able to disturb his mind and body.

"Please forgive me, Sacred Master. This matter was most likely caused by the interference of the Thousand Illusion Island. I have already warned Yun Feixue. Although he also went, with his own ability, he would not be able to disrupt this operation." The masked man said.

"No matter what, we can't keep this Yun Feixue any longer. To ruin my plans time and time again, we have to make him remember something. First, we have to destroy the Yun Manor. As for the things I need, I'll think of a way myself, so the following deals will all be terminated." After the black mist finished speaking, another thirty percent of the smoke disappeared from every corner of the hall.

"Understood, Saint Lord." After saying that, the tiger-mask man left the hall.

His pace was not fast, but with every step he took, he was already ten meters away. Not long after, he arrived in front of the desk in another house and began to write.

'Xiao Qian, Xiao Wuye, father and son. Leading the Golden Dragon Guards and a thousand elite soldiers to take down the Yun Mansion. For the time being, they have to hide the family of King Ming. With the help of the other experts of the Golden Dragon Guards, you can accomplish this.'

This was all that was written on the slip of paper. After he was done, the masked man rolled it into a small paper cylinder and stuffed it into a secret compartment on the table. Only after doing all this did he leave the room in satisfaction.

In just two hours, the experts led by Xiao Qian and Xiao Wuye, as well as a thousand elite soldiers had surrounded the entire Residence of Yun.

"Father, this Residence of Yun has the True Dragon's treasured sword that can shake the world. It's not suitable for them to attack directly." Xiao Wuye frowned, and he looked somewhat hesitant as he looked at the main entrance of the Cloud Mansion.

He was indeed worried about Yun Feixue's safety, because he wanted to use the Residence of Yun to deal with the rest of the Golden Dragon Guards, but he didn't expect the Golden Dragon Guards to deal such a heavy blow to Yun Feixue in such a short amount of time. It didn't make sense.

"Don't worry, although the True Dragon Sword was bestowed by the previous emperor, only the master of the Yun Manor is qualified to use it. Since Yun Feixue has not returned yet, we can still make a move even if the True Dragon Sword is in the Yun Manor." Xiao Qian said indifferently.

Xiao Wuye could only nod his head. After all, he couldn't go against the Golden Dragon Guards' orders, but when Yun Feixue came back and saw the Yun Mansion disappear from Hidden Dragon City, he wondered if he would go crazy. This was also good.

"General Xiao, why have you brought so many people to surround the Residence of Yun? Did you lose all respect for the Residence of Yun, bestowed by the late emperor, when King Zhuge Ming's army was under your command?" The doors to the Residence of Yun opened. Although Hong Yan was young, he had the disposition of a soldier, and he did not fear everyone at the entrance in the slightest.

The current Yun Manor was controlled by Hong Yan. Yun Feixue had absolute trust in this young general, regardless of his character or style, he was hot-blooded and young. Adding to that, he was completely loyal to the Yun Mansion, so he could rest assured that he would be able to place the entire Yun Mansion in his hands.

"How dare you! Your Residence of Yun is harbouring a felon. We were ordered to search the place, open the door and let this official in." Xiao Qian said coldly.

"Under orders? On whose orders? Do you have the imperial edict of the emperor with you? If not, then what right do you have to search my Residence of Yun? " Hong Yan said without the slightest bit of fear.

"We have come to search under the Golden Dragon Guards' orders. The Golden Dragon Guards' orders are just like the emperor's orders." Xiao Qian shouted.

"Hmph, bullsh * t. What qualifications do the Golden Dragon Guards have to search my Residence? They want to enter through this gate and take out the imperial edict." Hong Yan said with a chilling glare.

"You dare to disobey the Golden Dragon Guards' orders? Does your Residence of Yun not want to stay in Hidden Dragon City anymore?" Xiao Qian shouted in anger.

"What the Golden Dragon Guards are, it's not up to you dogs to decide where our Residence of Yun stays." Hong Yan's tone was arrogant and the contents of his words caused everyone to tremble. To dare say such words to Xiao Qian, he truly deserved to be called a soldier under Yun Fei's command.

"Impudent! Attack! Kill anyone who dares to obstruct your way!" Xiao Qian angrily rebuked as countless masters rushed towards the Yun Mansion. There was no lack of masters of the True Essence realm amongst them, so Xiao Wuye helplessly shook his head. Although this Hong Yan had the courage, he had no tricks up his sleeves; if he could retreat a few steps at this time, wouldn't it be the best decision for the rest of the Yun Mansion to retreat and wait for Yun Feixue's return?

"Kill anyone who dares to set foot in the Residence of Yun!" Hong Yan took a step forward. The countless number of soldiers in the Yun Mansion also did not retreat in the slightest.

"Humph, what are you trying to do, brat!" A cold snort sounded as a figure charged towards the main gate of the Residence of Yun like a storm, his target being Hong Yan who was standing at the entrance.

A hint of imperceptible contempt flashed across Hong Yan's eyes. Before this person even touched Hong Yan, he only felt an indescribable might that was akin to a mountain smashing onto him, causing him to completely lose control of his body and fly backwards towards Xiao Wuye and the rest, a mouthful of blood spewing out from his mouth.

Xiao Qian and Xiao Wuye's expressions changed at the same time. The two of them quickly tried to escape from the powerful force, but they were shocked to discover that their bodies had been knocked back. The three of them fell into the middle of the soldiers.
