"What's difficult about this You just felt the urge to go home, which means you're nearing your destination. And only the Soaring Cloud Sect can mobilize such divine martial artists in this area. How could it be anything else" Xianyao waved his hand and said.

"Have you been here before" The two people asked curiously. Apart from this explanation, they couldn't think of any other reason.

"No," Xianyao shook his head. Although he had spent quite some time there, he never had the opportunity to venture out, let alone reach such a distant place as Soaring Cloud Sect.

"Did you investigate" If he hadn't been here before, it must mean that he inquired about this place's situation beforehand. Yes, that’s definitely it.

"Not really!" Xianyao shook his head again. He was not familiar with the Soaring Cloud Sect's affairs and had yet to gather information on this side.

“Then how do you know this is the Soaring Cloud Sect”

“The map.” Xianyao replied simply, indeed, although he hadn’t collected any specific data, he did look at the map and knew where the Soaring Cloud Sect was located.

"On the map Just based on that"

"Though I don't know exactly where you're taking me, I do know the general direction. With distance calculations, even if I can't pinpoint it precisely, I could make an educated guess." Xianyao responded.

“Oh…”

The two didn’t say anything more; this explanation was acceptable to them. They hadn’t concealed their destination upon arrival either, and anyone who knew how to calculate directions would arrive at the same conclusion.

Moreover, they didn't really care about Xianyao knowing this, so there was no need for further thought. Anyway, he needed to know since it’s going to be told to him.

"So what do you want with me" Xianyao asked, even though he knew the two might not answer anything; indeed, they didn’t.

“You'll find out when the time comes,” the duo kept silent as expected. Their duty was to bring Xianyao here and nothing else.

Xianyao quickly landed in Soaring Cloud Sect’s square, drawing considerable attention from many people who pointed at him with curiosity; most didn't know who he was or why these two top experts were escorting him.

If they knew that Xianyao was the catalyst of their war against Stoneflow Kingdom, they would certainly try to attack him because in recent years, it hadn’t been easy for them. Especially now, with so many casualties among friends and comrades, this situation was particularly galling.

Of course, neither the sect leader nor these two divine martial artists of Soaring Cloud Sect intended to let Xianyao lose his life; however, they wouldn't intervene if he were abused or verbally assaulted.

"Hello, I'm Yue Xianyao. May I ask why you need me"

Xianyao met with the leader of Soaring Cloud Sect, a venerable old man with white hair and youthful looks—Cloud Qingyi's father, Yun KaiTai.

Although Xianyao was very courteous, the other party wasn’t as polite, looking at him unfriendly. "You are that bastard!" Yun KaiTai sneered.

"Which bastard is talking about me" Xianyao looked around a bit confused; this was actually a simple trick.

"The bastard who's talking about you!" Yun KaiTai sneered, he always held himself in high regard and wasn't aware of such small tricks. Furthermore, considering the current situation, where would Xianyao dare to play any tricks on him

Xianyao was alone, while here was Soaring Cloud Sect's headquarters; not at Stoneflow Kingdom. If he were still in Stoneflow Kingdom, Yun KaiTai might have some difficulty dealing with him. But now, Xianyao was like a fish out of water, completely at his mercy.

Xianyao remained silent for a moment, and the scene fell into an awkward silence...

"Sect Leader, this little rascal is playing tricks on you," someone by Yun KaiTai's side said.

“…” Yun KaiTai was silent for a while before understanding Xianyao’s trick. He immediately exuded intense killing intent but quickly held it back.

"Do you know that I can kill you as easily as squashing an ant" Yun KaiTai looked down at Xianyao with disdain, still in his high-and-mighty pose.

"No." Xianyao shook his head and replied; he really couldn't see how easy it would be for Yun KaiTai to kill him. He didn’t bother saying so nor did he care to say.

“You’re supposed to be a smart person, but you don’t seem like one. You can’t even tell the situation now, which is foolish.” Someone beside Yun KaiTai interjected, trying to salvage his reputation.

Even so, everyone in Soaring Cloud Sect thought Xianyao seemed too calm under such circumstances.

"Can we not discuss who’s more foolish What exactly do you mean by bringing me here and what are your intentions" Xianyao ignored their thoughts and didn’t want to say much.

“…”

The trio was silent for a moment before Yun KaiTai spoke, "Bringing you here, don't you know why"

"How would I know what you intend But I came here today to ask if my mother was killed by you people back then" Xianyao asked directly.

“What if I say yes” Yun KaiTai looked at Xianyao and asked.

"I am an impartial person. I won't take my anger out on others. Whoever is involved should pay the price," said Xiaoyao calmly.

"Hahaha..."

Yun Kaitai and others laughed, finding it to be the funniest joke they had ever heard.

"What if I am involved" asked Yun Kaitai.

"Then of course you will die. This is no laughing matter. Don't blame me when you meet your end," said Xiaoyao calmly, completely ignoring their ridicule and the way Yun Kaitai spoke to him.

"Haha, do you think you're capable of doing that" Yun Kaitai looked at Xiaoyao coldly, somewhat disdainfully.

"Don't test my resolve. Don't assume that I'll treat you with respect just because you are Yinpíng's grandfather," said Xiaoyao to Yun Kaitai, still looking calm and unmoved by his words.

No one knew why but Yun Kaitai hesitated for a moment, as if he thought this might actually happen. But it was only an instant before he dismissed the idea.

That idea was so laughable. He was Yun Clan's leader and even though they were suffering losses in their war against Luo Family, no one could kill him— not even with every member of Haoran Sect mobilized.

Not only did the Yun Clan have a strong foundation, but he himself was also an old-school god-level martial artist. Even disregarding his position as leader of Yun Clan, there were few people in this world who could kill him.

Xiaoyao was just a nobody. Although Guoxing and others were now extremely troublesome, they did not consider Xiaoyao to be an influential figure. Instead, they saw him as a weak point that could be exploited to defeat Guoxing.

That's why they had captured Xiaoyao; he was the hostage, someone they had waited for near Yun Sect for a long time to capture and who they had shot down his carrier pigeon.

If one were careful, it wouldn't be difficult to shoot down Xiaoyao’s carrier pigeon.

"Do you know nothing or are you just foolish Don't tell me you're unaware of your current situation," Yun Kaitai said, clearly implying that Xiaoyao was pitiful in his words.

“What situation It's no more than being invited to be a guest here,” said Xiaoyao indifferently.

"Guest I would never invite you as a guest. You're just trash!" Yun Kaitai sneered, looking at Xiaoyao with a hint of killing intent.

"Mind your tongue old man. Even though I respect the elderly, if you don't show me proper respect, that's another story," said Xiaoyao to Yun Kaitai.

"Haha, you're trash. Your shameless father picked up some random woman somewhere," Yun Kaitai pointed at Xiaoyao and sneered.

“For your sake, I'll make the Yun Clan a mess with just one sentence,” said Xiaoyao. He wouldn't kill people yet, but he would definitely teach them a lesson. At this time, Xiaoyao didn’t know about the war between the Yun Clan and Guoxing; otherwise, it wouldn't have been just a mess.

A mess indeed...

The truth was that it already was.

Everyone from the Yun Clan secretly sighed. The current situation was far worse than being in a mess; otherwise, they wouldn’t be here now.

"You're very brave..."

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me what you want," Xiaoyao said impatiently. He didn't want to waste time arguing with these people no matter how much of a prisoner he was.

“Xiaoyao, the meaning is simple: they are going to use you as a hostage and threaten Luo Family, especially Nan Gong Su et al.”

At this point, a beautiful woman walked in, heading straight for Xiaoyao while staring at Yun Kaitai, seemingly wanting to protect him.

Was there someone here who still wanted to protect Xiaoyao

No, not even talk about protecting. It was rare for anyone to know Xiaoyao, and the most likely candidate would be Yinpíng. But Yinpíng wasn’t a beautiful woman; even after three years, she hadn't grown into one.

This beautiful woman was Xiaoyao's stepmother but it couldn't really be called that since she was actually Luo Wentian’s original wife. She was Yun Qingyi.

Xiaoyao always wondered which side Yun Qingyi was on, but at this moment, he felt that she seemed genuinely willing to protect him, probably siding with him.

But it didn't mean that she had been his supporter before or that she wasn’t involved in Xiaoyao’s mother's death.

"Qingyi, step aside. You don't need to get involved. Just pretend you know nothing," said Yun Kaitai.

"I've seen it; how can I not know" said Yun Qingyi firmly, indicating that she couldn’t ignore this matter. "I've missed my chance and don't want to make the same mistake again."

Xiaoyao could sense honesty in Yun Qingyi’s words but he didn't know what her past mistakes were or how severe they had been.
