Chapter 222: Then You Should Marry He Luyun

"You and Cang Xingling must have known each other for a long time, right? Otherwise, the Zanghe Holy Emperor wouldn't have helped you. Since you know each other's roots and foundations, life would be easier if you lived with her."

The Tianyu Holy Emperor said.

"Is Father Emperor afraid that Cang Xingyan will reveal my identity?"

Jiang Xun asked.

"Still quite clever." The Tianyu Holy Emperor nodded.

"Actually, he doesn't even need to reveal it." Jiang Xun gave a bitter smile: "As long as I use a Communication Jade Tube to contact non-imperial family members, my identity will be exposed. After all, those who are not of the imperial family cannot use gold jade tubes."

"You don't need to worry about this. When you come to Tianling City, I will handle it myself. Before that, do not exchange jade tubes with non-imperial disciples."

"Since you are a Prince, you naturally must consider the interests of the dynasty and share the burden. If you don't fancy that Princess of the Zanghe Dynasty, it doesn't matter. Although I hear the Zanghe Holy Emperor's strength seems to have improved, overall, it is still far inferior to our Tianyu Dynasty."

"Even if you refuse, Cang Xingyan would not dare to reveal your identity."

"However, the He Yu Dynasty is quite interesting. He Luyun holds a considerable status in the He Yu Dynasty and is also a Dao Master on Tianwai Island. I approve of you marrying her. What about you?"

After saying so much, the point was to make Jiang Xun marry He Luyun.

It sounded like he was asking Jiang Xun, but in reality, he had already decided.

"I leave it entirely to Father Emperor's arrangements." What else could Jiang Xun do? He could only try to stall for time: "But could we not decide so early? Wait until the Top Ranking Challenge is over, and after I go to Tianling City and solidify my identity, then decide? It is also to be on the safe side."

"Being cautious is naturally good." The Tianyu Holy Emperor nodded: "Then it is settled."

"Yes..."

"As for that Top Ranking Challenge, do you have the confidence to take first place?"

"Senior Brother Ling Shangtian is already preparing to break through to Void Refinement; I'm afraid I am no match for him." Jiang Xun said immediately, fearing that the Tianyu Holy Emperor would make demands on him for the Tianyu Dynasty at this moment—if that happened, there would be no point in him playing around here anymore.

"That is also true. Then just try your best to ensure you don't suffer heavy injuries." The Tianyu Holy Emperor nodded: "Send a message to me an hour before you return. I will send someone to pick you up at the Tianling City Teleportation Array. For your performance on Tianwai Island, there will be rewards."

"Yes, thank you... Father Emperor."

Jiang Xun nodded in agreement, and then the light of the Communication Jade Tube dissipated.

It was hung up.

"This Tianyu Holy Emperor, he sounds like a good person, even a kind father, but every word is filled with coercion. Life won't be easy from now on," Si Yuyan said afterward.

"Who's to say it isn't?" Jiang Xun nodded helplessly.

"Why don't you stop worrying about the Lingerie-Sect and let's run away? Let's just go somewhere where no one knows us and cultivate properly."

"Look at you saying that. The Lingerie-Sect is my home; how could I not worry about it?" Jiang Xun also knew Si Yuyan was just venting.

She felt that the Lingerie-Sect had fallen into trouble, yet the women of the Lingerie-Sect did nothing and left everything for Jiang Xun to bear alone. Now that Jiang Xun's situation was becoming increasingly difficult, the Lingerie-Sect side only sent greetings through Qin Miaoyin every day.

"They should at least put in some effort. You're out here running around all by yourself—what is this?"

Si Yuyan said.

"They are currently unable to protect themselves. Their opponent is Tianwai Island. You saw it when we came here—any one of the nine Dao Masters could wipe out the Lingerie-Sect alone. In this situation, they can only hide for now. It's already a stroke of luck that I could sneak into Tianwai Island."

Jiang Xun entered his consciousness directly and squatted down in front of Si Yuyan, who was sitting on the ground hugging her legs.

"Is it my fault for making you run around and investigate information everywhere?"

Si Yuyan looked up at Jiang Xun and said.

"It has nothing to do with you." Jiang Xun shook his head: "It was me who broke into the Xuwang Mountain Secret Realm, merged the Baihua Sect, helped Senior Sister Ming Ning improve her strength, and then it happened to be when Master came out of seclusion, raising the Lingerie-Sect to a position that didn't belong to it. Plus, I didn't kill that wretch Zhang Yuan..."

Jiang Xun sat cross-legged in front of Si Yuyan and gave a bitter smile.

"By the way, where is Zhang Yuan? He reported the Lingerie-Sect to Tianwai Island; where did he go?"

Si Yuyan suddenly looked up and said.

"His status doesn't qualify him to enter Tianwai Island, so he definitely isn't here. The first time he escaped, he bought a flying ship to Ningyue City. That is the place closest to the Baiyun Sect besides Tianling City."

"Although the Baiyun Sect is gone now, I think he will probably still go to Nanwu. Maybe we will run into that brat when we arrive at the Tianyu Dynasty."

"Why do you think he will go to Nanwu?" Si Yuyan asked upon hearing this.

"Dongming is covered in Fairy Pavilions; he knows he would be discovered wherever he went there. The Western Regions are vast and barren, and Cang Xingling and the others are there. He saw us working together with his own eyes, so he won't go to the Western Regions. That only leaves Nanwu."

"... You won't run into him again and get tricked by him when you go to the Tianyu Dynasty, will you?" Si Yuyan pouted and said.

"Uh... the probability of one person tricking me so many times shouldn't be that high, right?" Jiang Xun was also speechless upon hearing this: "But it's better to be on guard. Next time I see him, I must find an opportunity to kill him."

"Right, you can't make a move; I'll do it." Si Yuyan also nodded in agreement.

"You are my Artifact Spirit; you can't do it either," Jiang Xun laughed.

"Then you just eat a Soul Returning Pill, and then kill him. If you die, you just resurrect," Si Yuyan said upon hearing this.

"Right, you're right. Let's do just that." Jiang Xun nodded in agreement.

"I'm so annoyed, so annoyed, so annoyed! Why does it feel so stifling! I really want to go out and beat up that so-called Tianwai Island Master, and then beat up the Tianyu Holy Emperor to vent my anger!"

Si Yuyan sighed, and after a moment, she clawed at her head and shouted, messing up her own hair.

"Hahahaha, I haven't gone crazy yet, and you've gone crazy first?" Jiang Xun laughed while helping Si Yuyan tidy her messy hair. Jiang Xun had indeed been under great pressure during this time, but he could still hold on; instead, it was Si Yuyan who felt she couldn't support him anymore.

"Besides, even if you recovered your strength, you might not be their match, right? Not to mention the Tianwai Island Master whose situation is unknown, the Tianyu Holy Emperor is a veteran Saint with great power, perhaps even a half-step Supreme. Wouldn't going to fight him be seeking death?"

"You have the Soul Returning Pill, don't you? If I die once, you save me once. If I can't beat him once, I'll fight him twice. If twice isn't enough, I—I can't beat him in twenty tries?" Si Yuyan gritted her teeth and said.

"Are you stupid?" Jiang Xun poked Si Yuyan's head upon hearing this: "You are a Saint; he would only capture you to make a Human Pill, he wouldn't kill you."

"... Oh." Si Yuyan nodded upon hearing this.

"Alright, why are you putting so much pressure on yourself? I will handle all these matters. Don't worry," Jiang Xun then touched Si Yuyan's head and smiled.

"Good luck." Si Yuyan nodded; she could only cheer Jiang Xun on.
