Chapter 202: Heavenly Spirit Immortal City, the Eastern Window Exposed
Above the border of Immortal Ripple Continent, two Immortal Ripple Cranes were flying at extreme speed.
"Young master, we're returning so hastily."
"If the family head asks, how should we explain?"
The man on the immortal crane wearing guard attire hesitated, then spoke up.
Hearing that, Yunlan glanced at him from the immortal crane beside him.
Then he asked lightly, "How? Are you afraid?"
"If you're afraid, go back first; I, the young master, will face it alone."
The guard hearing this quickly waved his hands: "No no no, Heaven's Cover swears to follow the young master to the death!"
"For this trip, I, the young master, have my own plans," Yunlan said lightly, contemplating the journey in his heart.
His father doted on Yunhuang the most; if I were to tell the truth…… cough, this is really troublesome.
The two immortal cranes flew at extreme speed; half a day later they reached the border of the Overlord Heaven Immortal Kingdom.
The Yun Clan resides in the second-largest immortal city of the Immortal Nation, Heavenly Spirit Immortal City.
Upon entering the Immortal Nation, the population surged; towering immortal cities rose one after another, filled with noisy crowds.
Yunlan couldn't help but sigh again; the fortune of the Immortal Nation is truly flourishing.
"Young master, it looks like people from our Yun Clan up ahead!"
Just then, the guard's divine sense detected a familiar aura ahead and he quickly spoke up to warn.
Hearing that, Yunlan lifted his head to look ahead.
He saw two Immortal Ripple Cranes flying toward them at high speed, and on the cranes sat two men wearing the Yun Clan's sacrificial robes.
Have the clan's people all come here? Yunlan's heart sank.
The person on the opposite crane's back also noticed them and immediately gripped with his legs.
"Cry!" the immortal crane let out a screech and then halted in midair.
"Second Young Master, what are you doing here!"
"Second Young Master, return to the clan quickly; something has happened."
"The Eldest Young Master was killed by thieves; if you suffer any further misfortune……"
"That's right, Second Young Master; this villain deserves death! If our Yun Clan catches him, we will surely crush him to death!"
The two sacrificial officials chatted back and forth, completely unaware of Yunlan's darkening face.
When they looked at him, they were startled and spoke again: "Second Young Master, leave the matter of eliminating the villain to us."
"You must absolutely not go alone to seek revenge on that villain; it's far too dangerous!"
The Eldest and Second Young Masters share deep affection; the Second Young Master is probably more anxious than anyone else right now!
"That's right, Second Young Master; the Eldest Young Master in heaven surely wouldn't want you to risk yourself."
They still wanted to advise, but saw the Second Young Master let out a cold snort and continue flying forward.
Flying toward the clan, good! The Second Young Master's intellect…… still listens to advice.
After flying for a while, they saw the magnificent huge city below—Heavenly Spirit Immortal City.
The immortal city is immensely vast, boundless, with immortal energy swirling.
The towering walls exude an ancient aura, as if they have endured the erosion of ages.
Then Yunlan and his personal guard descended, controlling the Immortal Ripple Crane.
The two of them were recognized as soon as they entered the city.
"Isn't that the Yun Clan's Second Young Master?"
"It's him; the Yun Clan's Eldest Young Master was killed by thieves, the Yun Clan is furious, and as expected, the position of clan head will go to the Second Young Master."
"Exactly! So now cozying up to them means you'll soon be strutting through the city—hey, where are you headed?"
"While you're still hesitating, I've already gone home to prepare."
A man said without turning his head.
The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart.
"Yes! After the Yun Clan's Eldest Young Master dies, the clan head position will belong to the Second Young Master—could it be……"
Not long after, Yunlan arrived at the clan's outer gate; he saw the guards guarding the gate all dressed in white mourning attire.
"The Second Young Master has returned!"
Upon seeing the visitor, the guard's eyes lit up and he hurriedly shouted into the clan.
Then Yunlan and the guard proceeded toward the clan with unchanged expressions.
Upon entering the clan, many gazes turned toward them.
There were surprises, flattery, and confusion.
These gazes all fell into Yunlan's sight; upon seeing the two people in the distance, he paused and his eyes turned cold.
Yunhuang's confidants must have learned that Yunhuang came to attack me.
I, the young master, am unharmed here, while Yunhuang is dead—how unexpected!
Just then a man walked toward him, cupped his hands and said, "Second Young Master, the clan head summons you to the Immortal Palace to see him."
"Hmm, I understand," Yunlan nodded, then told the guard behind him, "You may step down; everything remains as before."
Before the guard behind Yunlan could speak,
The man who had been relaying the message waved his hand and said, "Wait, the clan head said the young master's guard must come along as well."
Soon after,
Inside the Yun Clan's Immortal Palace,
Yunlan stood before the Immortal Palace with an unchanged expression and respectfully said, "Father, you summoned me?"
Lan'er has returned.
You know about your elder brother's matter, right?
A voice came from the Immortal Palace Master's seat.
Hearing this, Yun Lan opened his mouth with a hint of sorrow: "Father, Lan'er already knows; my elder brother died a miserable death (he deserved it)!"
Such thieves dare provoke the might of our Yun clan! Father has already dispatched a large force to search for them.
Lan'er, now you are all I have left, Father; for the time being, do not go out; Father will later transmit a few protective Immortal treasures to you.
Afterward, Yun family head Yun Wei exchanged a few casual words with Yun Lan.
Lan'er, how do you feel about the position of junior family head, or rather, how do you view Father's position as family head?
The family head on the main seat suddenly shifted the topic, and Yun Lan's heart stirred—he had arrived!
Father, gaining these two positions is my fortune, losing them is my fate; everything depends on Father and the council of elders.
The majestic figure on the main seat was very satisfied with the answer and nodded.
Right, Lan'er.
Immortal Clarity Academy is about to open; how are your preparations?
Father, I'm afraid I cannot go to the Immortal Clarity Academy; I have joined an unparalleled great sect.
Hearing this, the family head on the main seat was taken aback: "Huh? An unparalleled great sect? What unparalleled great sect?"
Reporting to Father, the sect I joined is called the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect.
No sooner had he spoken than Yun Lan regretted it—how could he be so hasty and loose-tongued as to expose himself!
If the plot is exposed and implicates the sect, what then?
Cough! It's also because his state of mind isn't strong enough; though his thoughts are already meticulous, he let his guard down in the conversation with his father.
Azure Cloud Immortal Sect? Father has never heard of it.
The family head first responded with confusion, then suddenly realized something! "No! Azure Cloud!"
Back when the life token was traced back, Huang Er's guards had furtively mentioned the two words "Azure Cloud"!
Instantly, family head Yun Wei's heart shook with great alarm; he immediately rose to his feet, and a vast Immortal might pressed down.
Azure Cloud!
Lan'er, tell me, how exactly did your elder brother die!
Father only gives you the chance to speak three sentences.
