Originally, Hun Changqing hadn't really paid any attention to Yun Yun. Yun Yun's talent was just so-so; her Dou Huang realm strength was dispensable to Hun Changqing—she was nothing more than a pretty face. In the Jia Ma capital, his energy was entirely focused on Ya Fei, Yao Ye, and Yao Yue—those three pretty faces—so he had no time to bother with Yun Yun.
But just now, under Hun Changqing's perception, Yun Yun's slender and graceful figure, her fair face like white jade, and the blush on her smooth cheeks, seemingly due to exhaustion and rapid breathing, made her look like a ripe peach.
This mature charm, combined with Yun Yun's noble and dignified aura as a sect leader that even her injuries couldn't conceal, directly made Hun Changqing
's heart flutter. Hun Changqing usually didn't particularly care about pretty faces; Medusa had a fiery temper and a terrifying possessiveness, and couldn't stand seeing other women around Hun Changqing.
Hun Changqing usually wouldn't quarrel with Medusa over a pretty face, mainly because, apart from Gu Xun'er, he hadn't seen anyone whose looks could compare to Medusa's (excluding himself, of course).
Moreover, Medusa's potential was terrifying; once her cultivation reached the Dou Zun level, she would be another major trump card in his hands, given their incredibly strong synergy.
For all these reasons, Hun Changqing was extremely indulgent and patient with Medusa, letting her have her little tantrums and coaxing her when necessary.
However, Yun Yun's appearance was no longer an ordinary situation. This pretty face was too beautiful; although slightly less stunning than Medusa, she was still breathtakingly beautiful. Yun Yun's seemingly mature yet youthful and elegant aura made Hun Changqing's heart itch.
It seemed Medusa would have to suffer a bit; it wasn't his fault, but rather Yun Yun's irresistible charm.
Hun Changqing never compromised himself; he wanted what he wanted, and no one could object. At this moment, a sinister glint shone in his eyes, and an evil smile lingered beneath his hood.
"Hai Bodong, do you know the Sect Master of the Yunlan Sect?"
Although Hun Changqing was tempted, he wouldn't dare snatch someone away right under Medusa's nose. He needed to maintain appearances; less trouble was better than more trouble from Medusa. So, Hun Changqing secretly transmitted his voice to Hai Bodong. With Hun Changqing, a Dou Zun, acting as an encryptor, Medusa couldn't sense his transmission.
To Medusa, Hun Changqing simply appeared to be standing in the air, probing something with his soul power, completely oblivious to anything amiss.
Hai Bodong, who had been watching Hun Changqing with suspicion, was startled when Hun Changqing suddenly transmitted his voice to him. The cunning old man quickly realized that Hun Changqing probably wanted him to do something shady again, which was why he was secretly sending him this message behind Medusa's back. However, he dared not delay, inwardly groaning as he replied to Hun Changqing,
"Reporting to my lord, I know Yun Shan, the former sect leader of the Yunlan Sect. Before I left the capital, we were both among the top ten strongest in the Jia Ma Empire. I recently traveled to the capital with you, and after some investigation, I learned that the current sect leader of the Yunlan Sect is Yun Shan's disciple, Yun Yun, who is now a three-star Dou Huang."
Hai Bodong truthfully reported what he knew to Hun Changqing. Hun Changqing nodded in satisfaction, his eyes filled with amusement as he looked at Hai Bodong. Feeling Hun Changqing's gaze, Hai Bodong's body trembled involuntarily.
"Thousands of miles away, the current sect leader of the Yunlan Sect is under attack by a powerful enemy and is seriously injured. You know her master, don't you think we should help her?"
"This..."
Hai Bodong heard Hun Changqing's telepathic message and instantly understood the meaning behind it. He thought to himself, "As expected!" Hun Changqing was indeed up to something again. He had heard of Yun Yun; she was incredibly beautiful, like a celestial being.
Most of the top ten strongest people in the Jia Ma Empire were pursuing her, and her reputation was quite high. The one most likely to end up with her was Gu He, a sixth-grade alchemist who was a guest elder in the Yunlan Sect. He was wealthy, handsome, powerful, and deeply devoted to Yun Yun. He was definitely the best choice for Yun Yun to choose a husband. But now… although Hai Bodong didn't know why Yun Yun had come to the Black Corner Region, since she had been targeted by Hun Changqing, she was like a lamb being targeted by a wolf, unable to escape. Hai Bodong estimated that it wouldn't be long before this lamb was devoured.
It seemed that now he could only let Yun Shan and Gu He suffer. they couldn't blame him, and they couldn't let Hai Bodong suffer, could they?
Thinking of this, Hai Bodong dared not hesitate any longer and quickly transmitted his voice to Hun Changqing in a flattering tone.
"Although I had little interaction with Yun Shan before, he was, after all, one of the strongmen of the Jia Ma Empire, and we both had the responsibility to maintain the peace of the Jia Ma Empire. My Mitel family also stood together with the Yunlan Sect. Now that the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect is in trouble, I think we should help. I'm sure that sect leader Yun Yun is also eagerly hoping for your help, sir!"
"Oh~ Is that true?"
Hun Changqing responded to Hai Bodong's words with amusement.
"Uh...this...of course it's true. Sect Master Yunyun will surely be extremely grateful to you for your kindness, sir!"
Hai Bodong said solemnly and righteously.
"Then why aren't you going to help? What are you waiting for?"
Hun Changqing's loud shout startled Hai Bodong. He inwardly groaned, "You can't play like this! I'm wronged, but I won't say it!
" "Yes, sir, I
'll go right away," Hai Bodong quickly transmitted his voice to Hun Changqing. After speaking, he headed towards the direction Hun Changqing had indicated to help the beautiful Sect Master Yunyun.
"Wait..."
Hun Changqing's telepathic message stopped Hai Bodong, who had just turned around to leave. Hai Bodong was filled with helplessness, a surge of frustration welling up inside him. His eyes were vacant, as if he had been completely broken. Forcing a smile, he asked Hun Changqing,
"What else do you need, sir?"
"I'll head to Canaan Academy first. After you rescue Yun Yun, settle her in the town outside Canaan Academy. Remember, explain to her properly what 'gratitude' means, understand? You've done this before, you should be quite familiar with it."
Hai Bodong quickly agreed, inwardly cursing, "Familiar? Why am I familiar with it? Because of whom?" "I am suffering greatly!"
Hai Bodong hesitated for a moment, and after realizing that Hun Changqing had no further instructions, he transformed into a blue streak of light, carrying a thick aura of resentment, and streaked across the sky in a certain direction. Judging from the resentment emanating from Hai Bodong, some of the Dou Huang powerhouses who were besieging Yun Yun might encounter some bad things.
