The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 914: If Others Want You Dead, They’d Still Have to Ask Me and A’Li First

Chapter 914: If Others Want You Dead, They’d Still Have to Ask Me and A’Li First

Yun Yubai had not had time to ask who the newcomer was when the young man delivered another palm strike.

He thought to himself that this time, he was surely doomed.

However, at that moment, the Vajra Umbrella sprang out from the side and expanded, blocking the deadly strike. The impact of the collision created a loud sound.

The young man saw his plan fail and intended to turn and escape, but the spell formation immediately erupted in golden light, forming numerous golden whips that tightly bound him.

A gust of wind swept through.

Nanli appeared instantly in the room.

Without saying a word, she was ready to disable the attacker.

The young man finally couldn’t hold back and shouted, "Divine Sovereign! It’s me! It’s me! Don’t strike me!"

Although he was a Ware Elf, after taking human form, he could still be injured.

With a bit of golden light, Nanli finally saw Crimson Nine Lands’ face.

She frowned, but finally stopped her attack.

Siheng was a step slower than Nanli since it was her formation. He cast a spell to light the candles in the room.

Crimson Nine Lands, bound by the golden whips, pouted and looked quite disheveled. He asked in confusion, "How come it’s you?"

His voice was deep, clearly displeased.

It was the middle of the night, disturbing his sleep. Did A’Li not need to rest?

She hurried over with such a start, was it possible she had disturbed the pregnancy?

However, Nanli gestured with her lips, signaling that she was fine.

Siheng let out a sigh of relief and then turned to look at Yun Yubai.

His face was pale, and blood was at the corner of his mouth, clearly injured.

"Master Yun," Siheng said, handing over a Wound-Healing Pill. "Please take this first."

Yun Yubai did not immediately take the pill. Instead, he fixed his gaze on Crimson Nine Lands, asking, "Who are you? You... you also can’t tolerate me..."

He seemed lost, his soul adrift.

Crimson Nine Lands glared at him, "You’re a mix of immortals and demons, of course, I can’t tolerate you!"

Yun Yubai’s face grew even paler.

He knew his bloodline better than anyone, but when others mentioned it, he felt as if his clothes were being torn off and lashes were being struck upon him.

He felt he should die, muttering, "Yes, the world can’t tolerate me, I should die... I should die..."

While speaking, he crushed the pill in his hand.

Siheng sighed inwardly at his appearance, but spoke calmly, "Whether you should die or not is not determined by your bloodline. You haven’t committed any heinous acts, so why should you die? If others want you dead, they still need to ask me and A’Li first."

Then, he turned and coldly glared at Crimson Nine Lands, "You, a Ware Elf, running amok and attacking in my territory. I’ll ask your master for an explanation."

Crimson Nine Lands froze, struggling and twisting his body. "Why should I? I’m only acting in the name of justice!"

After all, he was a celestial artifact. His furious struggle almost broke free from the golden whips.

Siheng flicked his sleeve.

Crimson Nine Lands immediately felt his body go limp and fell to his knees.

Even so, he still refused to yield, "What are you, the supreme of the Immortal World? You’re blind!"

Siheng didn’t indulge him.

Another blast of spiritual power sent Crimson Nine Lands writhing in pain on the ground.

Nanli had already taken Yun Yubai’s pulse.

She said, "Master Yun, it doesn’t matter what others say about you. What matters is what you want to become. Whether you’re human, demon, or from the Demon Clan, there are good and bad among them all. You’re just a mix of immortal and demon, why do you care so much? After cultivating for so long, don’t you understand this principle?"

Confirming Yun Yubai’s condition, she took out a pill and directly placed it in his mouth.

She added, "Don’t waste it. This is a high-grade pill. Every one counts."

Yun Yubai’s eyes regained a bit of light.

He stared at Nanli’s flawless face, and memories involuntarily flooded his mind. Naturally, he began to place himself in those memories.

He swallowed the pill.

Just as he was about to speak, noises from outside drew everyone’s attention.

The sounds from the room had already attracted a crowd.

Soon, the corridor was crowded with people.

The spell formation had not been removed yet.

Ximen Chuan immediately understood what had happened. He smiled, "Interesting. No wonder Crimson Nine Lands wanted to draw symbols earlier. It turns out he had a plan. Nanli, you’re too trusting. Looks like you’ve made a mistake this time?"

"Crimson Nine Lands!" Chu Yang pushed his way to the front.

His face was full of concern.

He tried to enter, but the spell formation blocked his way.

Nanli made a hand gesture and the spell formation dissipated.

Chu Yang rushed to check on Crimson Nine Lands. When he saw the pain on his face and the aura surrounding him, he realized it was Siheng’s doing.

He quickly said, "Venerable Master, please show mercy. I am his master. Whatever mistakes he made, I will bear the responsibility."

Since even Fourth Brother had spoken up, Siheng couldn’t refuse.

He dispersed the spiritual power torturing the Ware Elf, and Crimson Nine Lands no longer suffered.

Just as he recovered, he immediately grabbed onto Chu Yang’s legs and cried loudly, "Master! Master! He’s bullying me! I didn’t do anything wrong! I don’t need you to take the blame!"

Chu Yang understood what had happened.

His expression darkened, "For this matter, Venerable Master and Sixth Sister will decide. Why did you sneak in here in the middle of the night to attack? You’re my celestial artifact. What you do reflects on me! You’ve ruined my reputation!"

He stood up, not intending to listen to Crimson Nine Lands any further.

Though he had addressed Siheng as his brother-in-law, he understood that Siheng had his own authority in the Immortal World. If he didn’t respect Siheng, others wouldn’t respect him either. How could Siheng maintain order in the Immortal World if he was disrespected?

Moreover, Yun Yubai’s survival was Sixth Sister’s decision, and as her older brother, he would fully support her without hesitation.

He would never let Sixth Sister face this alone!

Crimson Nine Lands panicked, no longer daring to throw a tantrum. He quickly tugged at Chu Yang’s sleeve.

"Master, I was wrong! I didn’t mean to ruin your reputation, but... I had no choice!"

Crimson Nine Lands sniffled.

He no longer dared to blame Siheng and Nanli, and instead pointed directly at Yun Yubai, "His mother is the Asura Princess, but you still don’t know who his biological father is, do you? It’s Celestial Emperor Yining!"

As soon as those words were spoken, everyone exchanged glances. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

It was clear that no one knew who Celestial Emperor Yining was.

Still, Cinian spoke up, "Many immortals and disciples fell thousands of years ago, and many scriptures were left behind. This Celestial Emperor Yining... just hearing the name sounds powerful, but I haven’t read about him in any of the scriptures I’ve studied."

The Crimson Glow Peak Master and Yun Shen, when they were at Yunxiao Peak, had heard Nanli mention Yun Yubai’s real father.

They all turned to look at Nanli.

As expected, Nanli’s face showed no surprise, indicating that she had already known this information.

Besides Nanli, Siheng and Qiao Nanyi also knew about Celestial Emperor Yining.

Siheng’s eyes flashed with a hint of shock.

Qiao Nanyi suddenly looked at Yun Yubai.

Qing Feng leaned in, examining Yun Yubai’s face closely, "You’re actually Celestial Emperor Yining’s son? You don’t look like him at all."
