Above all spirits

Chapter 335 Response

Subsequently.

Yunyin went to the place where she could exchange star coins. Following Werner's directions, she walked towards the imperial city, admiring the unique style of this "ancient city" that she could call herself, while also enjoying the local delicacies.

of course.

Along the way, there were always people who came up to chat with her, just like the man in the blue robe. Yunyin was the most eye-catching person on the street, both in terms of her clothes and appearance. However, all of these people were scared away by Werner. Some even collapsed to the ground under Werner's intimidating gaze and fled in a sorry state.

Werner acted like a protective father towards his beloved daughter.

Yunyin gradually got used to it.

As dusk falls, the afterglow shines through the tall buildings onto the stone street.

The surrounding scenery gradually quieted down, and the crowd thinned out, with most of the people being patrolling guards.

Yunyin slowly walked to the gate of the imperial city. Looking up, she saw that the city gate was tall and majestic, like an insurmountable fortress.

but.

Incongruous with the surrounding scenery, a beautiful woman in a black dress leaned against the city gate, drawing people's attention.

When Yunyin was looking at her.

The woman returned the gaze.

She waved her arm, gesturing for Yunyin to come over; she had clearly been waiting for quite some time.

"Ye Ying'er, one of Gu Yun's subordinates."

"It was probably Xiao Tian who notified them."

The doubts that had just risen in Yunyin's heart instantly dissipated. Werner had told her on the way that Xiaotian was actually a kind of ideology of the Heavenly Demon Emperor's will, but unfortunately she was not a demon, so she could not see it or interact with it.

I wonder if the Illusionary Dream Empire has such an interesting ideology.

Werner said Xiao Tian is quite funny.

"You've finally arrived! You must be Sister Yunyin!"

"Gu Yun instructed me to meet you here."

"According to the plan, we should have arrived around noon."

"If Gu Yun hadn't told me beforehand that I could just wait if it got late, I almost would have gone to find you."

"You scared me to death. I can't take responsibility if anything happens to you."

Ye Ying'er greeted them with a smile, a string of words suddenly tumbling out of her mouth, perhaps because she was so bored during her time in the capital.

Yunyin responded with a light laugh.

"I took a stroll around the imperial city."

"Just call me Yunyin. I have no power or status, so I'm not worthy of the title."

Ye Ying'er's eyes widened, and she immediately grabbed Yun Yin's arm, pressed herself against her, and smiled brightly.

She would never act superior to others just because of Yunyin's modesty or her own peak Holy Body status.

She knew it.

Building a good relationship with such a hidden big shot will surely lead to a successful future.

"No, it's alright, just call me Ying'er."

"Come, come, let me show you around the capital."

Yunyin shook her head helplessly. Although it felt a bit abrupt, the girl in front of her was obviously an extremely outgoing, straightforward, and unpretentious person.

Her approach, even if it might have been with ulterior motives, warmed Yunyin's heart slightly.

Yunyin hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time, and she hadn't been treated like this in a long time either.

Life with the elven royals was incredibly burdensome. All the servants were like robots, very reserved with him, but with other members of the elven royal family, the reserve returned to him.

"Alright, Ying'er."

Yunyin chuckled softly, her eyes gentle.

"Haha, Sister Yunyin, you have such a beautiful smile. It's like a fairy smiling at a mortal, without any impure thoughts."

"No wonder, I knew it. The dignified Heavenly Demon Lord's wife is no ordinary person."

"Come on, come on, I'll show you around!"

"There are quite a few fun places in the capital city."

Ye Ying'er pulled Yun Yin toward the city, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.

"By the way, Sister Yunyin, did Gu Yun say when he's coming back?"

Yunyin's intuition was incredibly sharp, honed through years of observing and interpreting the expressions of the elven royalty. Naturally, she could sense a hint of tension in Ye Ying'er's tone, even though Ye Ying'er cleverly concealed her emotions with her lively and optimistic demeanor.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Yunyin asked, her tone gentle but with a hint of concern.

Ye Ying'er hesitated slightly, her eyes flickering as if she was weighing her options.

In the end, she did not choose to hide it.

"It's really not a big deal."

"Didn't Gu Yun capture an elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect before? Now the sect leader of the Hundred Flowers Sect is drinking tea in the royal family, hahaha."

Of course.

This is from Gu Yun's perspective.

Otherwise, Ye Ying'er wouldn't be under so much pressure.

joke.

A pseudo-innate being who also possesses imperial will could almost eliminate him, a mere little karami, in an instant. How could he not feel immense pressure?

Fortunately, the sect leader didn't seem so arrogant and domineering; he just said he was waiting for Gu Yun to return.

But over time, even the best-tempered person will be worn down.

Yunyin shook her head.

"I'm not sure of the exact time, but he should be back in the next couple of days."

Hear this.

Ye Ying'er breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

"That's good."

"It's just that his strength is a bit outrageous. He makes people feel suffocated just sitting there. That's why he came out to get some fresh air and come to your aid. But it's okay, there's a piece of wood to hold you up."

"Now we just need to wait for Gu Yun to come back."

"wood?"

"Oh dear, someone who can't speak well is perfect for this kind of occasion."

"Come on, let me introduce you to someone."

...

the next day.

A streak of purple-gold light streaked across the sky above the imperial city, like a shooting star piercing the night sky.

Followed by.

A deafening roar echoed through the sky, seemingly shaking the entire imperial city.

"boom--!"

Inside the imperial city, in an open space.

A cloud of dust rose, and a black figure slowly emerged, parting the dust.

A long black robe fluttered slightly in the wind, and long hair of the same color swayed gently with her movements.

What is most striking is, of course, those incredibly blood-red eyes, as if they came from the abyss, giving people an involuntary sense of oppression.

Werner was naturally the first to react.

In the shadowy juncture unnoticed by anyone, a black shadow "attacked" Gu Yun like an arrow released from a bow.

"You are finally back."

"If I don't come back soon, I'll be dead."

Gu Yun did not dodge, but let the shadow disappear into his body.

Almost simultaneously, Werner's voice appeared in Gu Yun's consciousness.

"Something's wrong."

"Gu kid, what's wrong with you?"

"Is your physical condition unusual?"

Werner and Gu Yun have a symbiotic relationship, and he is arguably the one who understands Gu Yun's situation best.

Gu Yun now gives me the feeling of an old man in his twilight years.

"The goddess of life has intervened."

Werner: ?!

"It's good enough that we came back alive. With Xiao Li here and the Wordless Heavenly Book, there shouldn't be any major problems."
