Chapter 1240 - 1240 I'm Back, The Yun Family (2)
1240 I’m Back, The Yun Family (2)
The Second Elder also said, “The Bai family has been spying on the Yun family for so many years. Recently, they finally couldn’t hold back anymore. They’ve asked for marriage many times, but it didn’t work, so they probably couldn’t hold back anymore.”
Yun Xiang’s face darkened as she listened on the side. This time, she thought that she could avoid the Yun family’s disaster by sacrificing herself to marry into the Bai family. It seemed that she was too naive after all. Bai Zhiyu was so greedy. He would definitely not be satisfied until he got the summoner bloodline of the Yun family! Even if she married into the Bai family this time, it wouldn’t be useful at all and would only cause more trouble! Luckily, Yun Feng was here, or else…
The Great Elder listened to the Second and Third Elders with a smile. The smile on his face was unfathomable. “The time isn’t right yet. Why are you in such a hurry? The Bai family can’t bear to break the illusion that the Bai family and the Yun family are on good terms. Why should we be angry? If he wants to continue befriending us, so be it. However, I won’t let him have any chance to succeed. There’s no need to think about such a thing at all right now. Since that girl is back, we must welcome her well.”
The Third Elder burst into laughter. “Even though she’s a four-element mage, Second Brother and I can welcome her. You don’t need to go, do you…”
The Great Elder chuckled. “Third Brother, that girl is a Grade 8 Emperor Level four-element summoner. It’s only right for me to welcome her.”
“What?! That little girl has already reached Grade 8 of the Emperor Level!” The Third Elder exclaimed. The Great Elder nodded with a smile. Yun Xiang only felt that the Great Elder was unfathomable as she listened on the side. How did he know that Yun Feng was at Grade 8 of the Emperor Level?
The Great Elder smiled and didn’t say anything. Back then, he told that girl not to come to the Yun family until she reached Grade 8 of the Emperor Level. Now that she was here, the threshold of Grade 8 of the Emperor Level should have already been passed. In just a year and a half, she had already broken through to Grade 8 of the Emperor Level. This little girl’s potential… Even he would be a bit surprised.
“A Grade 8 Emperor Level four-element summoner…” The Second Elder had a smile on his face. The Yun family had such a summoner back at the right time!
“It’s been hard on that girl. She’s already worrying about the Yun family before she comes home.” The Great Elder chuckled. The Third Elder couldn’t help but praise, “This girl is quite capable. When she comes back, I’ll see what kind of girl she is…”
“Third brother, don’t scare that girl.” The Second Elder chuckled. The Third Elder burst into laughter. The Great Elder looked at Yun Xiang. “Yun Feng should have already seen the signs of the Bai family’s betrayal, or she wouldn’t have come here. We’ll hold back the matter of the Bai family for now.”
Yun Xiang nodded. “That’s what Yun Feng said. She looks younger than me, but she’s much more thoughtful and… very far-sighted.”
The Great Elder chuckled. He wanted to say something, but someone reported outside. “Great Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder! There’s a message from the Bai family that the Bai family is here to visit!”
Yun Xiang’s face immediately darkened after hearing that. Why did that old thing come to the Yun family? He still had the face to come?!
“Hm, Bai Zhiyu is quite fast. Isn’t he afraid that he’ll show his fox tail if he’s too anxious?” The Second Elder sneered. The Third Elder gritted his teeth. “Perhaps that old thing has designs on Yun Feng?”
After hearing this, everyone’s heart sank. A four-element summoner, from the Yun family. Everyone… probably wanted such a person, especially the Bai family, which had been coveting the Yun family’s summoner bloodline for many years!
“No matter what Bai Zhiyu is planning, he’ll return empty-handed this time.” The Great Elder said coldly. Nobody was allowed to touch the descendants of the Yun family! Nobody could covet the bloodline of the Yun family!
“Yun Xiang, don’t tell anyone about the Bai family. The Yun family’s current situation… isn’t suitable yet.” The Second Elder said. Yun Xiang immediately nodded. Seeing that the three elders still had something important to say, Yun Xiang immediately left. After walking for a while, a voice stopped her.
“Yun Xiang!”
Yun Xiang turned around and saw one of the two summoners of the Yun family, Yun Ling. He was tall and slim, and his skin was a bit pale, so he didn’t look very healthy. Summoners were physically weak to begin with. They weren’t as tough as warriors at all. There was always a hint of arrogance on his handsome face. After all, as a summoner, his identity was indeed higher than others, but he was much more approachable in front of Yun Xiang, who was at Grade 9 of the Emperor Level.
“I haven’t seen you in the past few days. Where have you been? Xiaoxiao has been looking for you a few times.” Yun Ling walked over and said indifferently. Yun Xiang chuckled. “I went to the Bai family in Bai City to visit them.”
“I see. Why didn’t you tell me? I’ll go with you! How’s Uncle Bai?”
Yun Xiang managed a smile. “Pretty good.” This was the younger generation of the Yun family. How many people were kept in the dark? How many people called Bai Zhiyu uncle respectfully?
“The Bai family has been on good terms with the Yun family for so many years. It’s time for us to hang out more. If you go there again next time, you must call me. Right, why were the three elders looking for you? For the contest?” Yun Ling couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy when he asked this. Yun Xiang’s eyes darkened. “You know about the contest. The Yun family might not be able to take out the hundred ultimate ores for the qualification.”
Yun Ling heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. “What are you afraid of? Uncle Bai will definitely help us by then. It won’t be a problem.”
Yun Xiang’s heart sank again. Right, it was these hundred ultimate ores that made that old thing, Bai Zhiyu, shamelessly say those things to the Great Elder. The Great Elder had already rejected him. The Yun family probably wouldn’t have the chance to participate in the selection this time.
“Well… Did the three elders say who will be sent to the selection convention?” Yun Ling asked carefully with a hint of joy in his eyes. Yun Xiang suddenly glanced at him. “They didn’t say that. Yun Ling, do you want to participate in the selection convention this time?”
A blush suddenly appeared on Yun Ling’s pale face. “If there’s a chance… I still want to…” There were only two summoners in the Yun family. Yun Xiaoxiao had just entered the Emperor Level. He was a Grade-2 Emperor Level expert. He would certainly go. There was no other candidate at all!
Yun Xiang narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly found that Yun Ling in front of him seemed to be a lot more arrogant. Did he think that a Grade-2 Emperor Level summoner was already impressive? “Yun Ling, have you heard of Yun Feng?”
