Chapter 140: Yun Yun: The world is so big, I want to go see it!

"This child's future achievements will be immeasurable!"

Yao Lao's soul lay dormant within the Storage Ring on Xiao Yan's hand; he restrained all his soul power to prevent drawing Gu Fei's attention.

But just a moment ago, even from within the Storage Ring, Yao Lao had sensed Gu Fei's immense soul power, and his heart was incomparably shocked.

After the expelled black Qi was burned away, the previously chaotic and maddened Yun Shan finally calmed down, and his consciousness gradually regained clarity.

Seeing this, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Yun Yun's face; compared to Yun Shan waking up, she was even more delighted that Gu Fei was willing to help her.

"Many thanks to the Senior for your assistance. Yun Shan will never forget this great kindness!"

After regaining his senses, Yun Shan thanked Gu Fei; he had not expected that collaborating with the Soul Hall would nearly lead him to such an end.

The many Elders of the Yunlan Sect also thanked Gu Fei one after another at this moment.

But Gu Fei could not be bothered to pay them any mind.

As for Gu He, who had been sent flying by a palm strike from Yun Shan, almost no one asked after him, save for his personal disciple Liu Ling, who went over to support him.

"Yun'er, this master has failed you!"

After thanking Gu Fei, Yun Shan immediately turned to apologize to Yun Yun; his attitude was incomparably sincere, even bordering on servile.

Regarding Yun Shan's apology, Yun Yun's expression was very indifferent.

Toward this teacher, she had already done everything that could be expected of her.

Even for the entire Yunlan Sect, she no longer felt much attachment at this moment.

"Teacher, since you have now returned to the world, I, Yun Yun, will completely resign from the position of Yunlan Sect Master... The world is so vast, and this disciple wishes to go out and see it!"

Yun Yun stated her intentions directly; she had just realized that her future life could no longer be lived for the sake of the Yunlan Sect.

Upon hearing this, Yun Shan's expression was full of regret.

He heard the coldness in Yun Yun's tone and knew that the wrongdoings he had committed had already chilled her heart, leaving him with no face to ask her to stay.

"Very well!" Yun Shan said, lowering his head.

"Teacher, are you really going to leave?"

Nalan Yanran looked at Yun Yun.

Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran met each other's eyes; her gaze was very firm, and she nodded heavily.

"The Dou Qi Continent is so big, and I have long wanted to go out and gain experience. Teacher, let me go with you..."

If Yun Yun left, there was nothing left in the Yunlan Sect for Nalan Yanran to be attached to.

Moreover, after experiencing the defeat of the Three Year Agreement, Nalan Yanran was filled with a longing for greater strength; leaving the Jia Ma Empire to go outside might be a shortcut to becoming stronger.

In a single day, both the Sect Master and the Young Sect Master of the Yunlan Sect were leaving the sect one after another; suddenly, the members of the Yunlan Sect wore expressions of reluctance.

"Is she leaving?"

Gu He watched Yun Yun from afar.

He wanted to say something to Yun Yun, but he knew he no longer had the qualifications.

At this time, seeing Yun Shan and the Yunlan Sect Elders wake up, a trace of melancholy appeared on the faces of Jia Xingtian and Hai Bodong.

"If this old fellow doesn't die, it will be hard for the Jia Ma Empire to have any peace!"

Jia Xingtian frowned slightly.

"Senior Gu Fei being able to intervene is already a help to the Jia Ma Empire. If this crazed Yun Shan were allowed to act recklessly, the Jia Ma Empire would likely fall into a catastrophe." Hai Bodong's perspective was longer-term than Jia Xingtian's.

He sighed and said, "But there is no need to worry too much. Although Yun Shan is alive, the sect is now divided, and with the Sect Master and Young Sect Master leaving directly, the Yunlan Sect will not dare to strike at the Jia Ma Imperial Family again."

In the crowd, Nalan Jie looked at Gu Fei, who had once saved his life, high in the sky, and his heart was filled with emotion.

At the same time, his gaze also fell upon Nalan Yanran beside Yun Yun; if Nalan Yanran could be with this Senior...

After breaking ties with the Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun looked at Gu Fei not far away.

When she saw Gu Fei, her previously sharp and resolute gaze suddenly became soft, and her body unconsciously relaxed a little.

Gu Fei could feel that Yun Yun's mood at this moment was completely different from before; she was now even carrying a hint of ease and joy. "Gu Fei..."

"You wouldn't be about to say you want to come by my side to be a slave or a maid again, would you..."

Yun Yun walked close to Gu Fei, and before she could speak, Gu Fei spoke first.

Yun Yun smiled awkwardly upon hearing this.

This was indeed the promise she had just made to Gu Fei, and at the time, she had been prepared to truly become a slave or a maid.

"Let's get this straight first: I am not short of maids by my side, only friends."

These words from Gu Fei made the atmosphere much lighter, and the heavy air caused by the upheaval of the Yunlan Sect was suddenly cleared away quite a bit.

"Since you aren't short of maids, then I shall go travel the world."

"Before I leave, I want to know, if I miss you in the future, where should I go to find you?"

Yun Yun said with a smile; at this moment, having successfully resigned as the Yunlan Sect Master, she no longer needed to care about the eyes of the world.

She could do what she wanted to do, and she did not need to consider the interests of the sect.

As long as she wanted to do it, she could let go and do it.

Looking at Yun Yun's bright eyes, Gu Fei said very seriously: "Eastern Region, Ancient Realm!"

He was very happy that Yun Yun had made such a decision; at least in the future, she would no longer be dragged down by the Yunlan Sect and could live for herself.

"Alright, I'll remember that! Let us meet again by fate in the future!"

Yun Yun smiled beautifully, as if all the spring breezes of the entire Yunlan Sect were on her face.

Seeing Yun Yun's sweet smile, Gu He lowered his head, took Liu Ling's hand, turned around, and gradually disappeared into a corner where no one was paying attention.

"The Yunlan Sect has lost a good Sect Master."

Jia Xingtian was acquainted with Yun Yun and knew her character, so he could not help but feel some regret now.

"I heard that this Senior also took a turn around your Jia Ma Imperial Family before; your Imperial Family doesn't have any improper intentions, do you?"

With the threat of the Yunlan Sect removed, Hai Bodong looked at Jia Xingtian and said with a pointed meaning.

Jia Xingtian smiled mysteriously and did not provide any explanation, which made Hai Bodong anxious; he secretly decided in his heart that he must thoroughly investigate the relationship between Gu Fei and the Jia Ma Imperial Family.

With the matter here concluded, Gu Fei looked at Cai'er beside him.

"Let's go back, rest for the night, and tomorrow we will set off for the Snake-People Tribe!"

Cai'er had just witnessed everything.

However, she had remained standing behind Gu Fei the entire time without saying a word.

She was very clear about the relationship between Yun Yun and Gu Fei, and she would not make Gu Fei feel troubled.

"Let's go!" Cai'er said with a faint smile.

Following this, Gu Fei and his party left the Yunlan Sect, and Medusa's mood was somewhat agitated.

After returning to the Snake-People Tribe, she would have to begin preparing for the migration of the entire tribe; she was now finally close to fulfilling her long-held wish.

On the Yunlan Sect, the crowd dispersed, and Xiao Yan remained hidden among the people without showing himself.

In his heart, he already had some guesses regarding his father's disappearance; the entire Yunlan Sect had been contaminated by those so-called Soul Hall.

If this matter was not done by the Yunlan Sect, then it could only be the Soul Hall.

But why would the Soul Hall do such a thing?

Xiao Yan did not know; there were some things he still had to continue investigating.

And after today, all factions would know that from now on, the Yunlan Sect would be much more restrained in its actions within the Jia Ma Empire.

At the very least, if Yun Shan wanted to strengthen the Yunlan Sect, he could only choose to aim his guns outward.
