129: Xu Nian was worried about the measures taken by Yanyu Tower.
“You, who haven’t even reached the King Sealing Realm, dare to speak so presumptuously in front of us?”
“How dare you!”
A Saint’s Aura vibrated out from Meng Ruxue.
It immediately suppressed all of Si Xingyun’s Aura, even forcing him to his knees, unable to resist.
“A Saint!”
Si Xingyun’s Face was filled with utter shock; he never imagined that Chu Yun’s woman would be a Saint!
Why?
How could a mere Great Xia Dynasty have so many Saint-level powerhouses?
“Please forgive us, Your Majesties!”
“Xingyun is ignorant and spoke too rashly, offending both of you. Please, Your Majesties, consider Nianniang’s Face and spare him this one time.”
Cloud Nianniang also spoke up at this moment, quickly pleading for her younger brother.
After all, no matter what, he was her only brother.
She couldn’t just watch him die.
“I can give him one chance, as for whether he seizes it, that’s entirely up to him.”
At this moment, before Meng Ruxue could speak, a familiar voice came from the doorway.
Meng Ruxue and the Heavenly Demoness turned their heads to look, and their Faces immediately lit up with joy; it was Chu Yun, Nan Xuan, and Wan Lei.
“Your Majesty, you’ve returned.” Meng Ruxue and the Heavenly Demoness both spoke out one after another.
Chu Yun smiled and nodded, walking over and saying to the two women, “You’ve worked hard during this time.”
“It’s alright, nothing much happened.”
“It’s you, what you did in the Thousand Joy Dynasty, it’s now spread throughout the entire Hundred Dynasty Land.”
Meng Ruxue’s words still held a hint of worry.
After all, although the Misty Rain Tower was reasonable, Chu Yun had indeed killed the Tower Lord, Han Sen, in front of countless people.
If this wasn’t handled well, the Great Xia Dynasty would truly be in trouble.
Chu Yun understood her meaning and smiled faintly, “Don’t worry, I already have a way to deal with it, no need to worry.”
After comforting the two women, Chu Yun’s gaze finally turned to Si Xingyun and Cloud Nianniang.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Cloud Nianniang bowed her head slightly in greeting.
Si Xingyun, however, still gritted his teeth, enduring Meng Ruxue’s Saint’s Aura.
His gaze was fixed on Chu Yun; this was the man who had killed his mentor and father figure!
This person would be his lifelong enemy.
“Rise.” Chu Yun first nodded to Cloud Nianniang.
Then, his gaze fell upon Si Xingyun, looking at the expression in his eyes, and he said directly, “Don’t look at me with that kind of gaze; it only makes you seem more foolish.”
“Normally, I wouldn’t need to waste words with you; a single word would be enough to cut you down.”
“But for your sister’s sake, I’ll give you one chance.”
“You want to avenge Han Sen so much, then take a look at this first.”
Chu Yun then projected some of Han Sen’s memory fragments into the air.
Cloud Nianniang and Si Xingyun both looked up.
Within those memory fragments, there were scenes of Han Sen guiding Si Xingyun, and it also revealed Han Sen’s purpose in cultivating him.
It was to use Si Xingyun to find Cloud Nianniang and seize the Distant Bright Imperial Dynasty’s treasure in her possession!
From beginning to end, his saving of Si Xingyun was driven by his own agenda.
Si Xingyun was merely a chess piece to him.
All the kindness he showed was to conceal his true motive.
“Impossible!”
“This is fake!”
“You must be lying to me!”
“This is impossible!”
Si Xingyun’s Soul seemed to have suffered a huge blow; his pupils widened, his Face was contorted, and he refuted hysterically.
Chu Yun looked at his impulsive appearance and said indifferently, “What do you think you are in front of me?”
“If it weren’t for your sister, you wouldn’t even have the chance to see me.”
“These memories belong to you and Han Sen. If you want to continue deceiving yourself, I won’t stop you.”
“But the chance I’m giving you is only this one time.”
“If you dare to offend me again, even if Nianniang pleads for you, she won’t be able to save you.”
After Chu Yun finished speaking, he turned and left the Cloud Mist Tower with his people, no longer wasting words with Si Xingyun.
If he still couldn’t understand, then he was courting death, and no one else was to blame.
Meng Ruxue retracted her Saint’s Aura and finally glanced at Cloud Nianniang: “It’s already very rare for His Majesty to give him a chance.”
“If there’s a next time, no one’s Face will matter.”
Cloud Nianniang looked at the nearly collapsed Si Xingyun with a pained heart, then solemnly replied to Meng Ruxue: “I understand, thank you, Your Majesty.”
“Take care.”
Meng Ruxue also left the Cloud Mist Tower afterward.
As for Si Xingyun’s current state, only his elder sister, Cloud Nianniang, could guide and comfort him…
After Chu Yun returned to the Imperial Palace, Xu Nian of the Misty Rain Tower received the news and rushed over immediately.
“Your news travels fast.”
“I just entered the Imperial Palace, and you’re already here.”
In the hall, Chu Yun and the two women looked at the hurried Xu Nian, smiling and teasing him.
Xu Nian smiled wryly: “Chu Emperor caused such a big commotion in the Thousand Joy Dynasty, how could I not be anxious?”
Chu Yun naturally understood the meaning of Xu Nian’s words and nodded: “Sit down first, no need to be so anxious. What’s done is done; just handle it calmly.”
Xu Nian sat down in a nearby seat, his somewhat anxious expression not having faded. After sitting down, he immediately asked: “Chu Emperor, when your people killed Han Sen, you said Han Sen’s true form was an Evil Infant, and that he secretly manipulated the Qianle Imperial Family to nourish evil entities.”
“Do you have concrete evidence for these matters?”
Chu Yun responded unhurriedly: “He self-severed over ninety percent of his memories, leaving less than ten percent.”
“Among the remaining memories, it only recorded that his true form was an Evil Infant, and that it was with the help of a high-ranking descendant from your General Tower that he was able to conceal his true identity and become the Tower Lord of the Qianle Branch Tower.”
Xu Nian interjected, asking: “So, the memories you obtained, Chu Emperor, only contain the fact that Han Sen was an Evil Infant in his true form, but there’s no evidence of him controlling the Qianle Imperial Family or nourishing evil entities?”
Chu Yun nodded faintly: “You could say that. His remaining memories contain nothing about the Qianle Imperial Family.”
Xu Nian’s Face instantly became solemn: “If that’s the case, then things are bad.”
He looked at Chu Yun and the two women, saying with a serious expression: “Chu Emperor, even if you confirmed Han Sen’s true form was an Evil Infant, if there isn’t enough other evidence to prove he violated the General Tower’ rules, then based solely on this, he cannot be convicted.”
“And I have already received news.”
“The General Tower has already dispatched two waves of people to the Great Xia Dynasty. One wave is to investigate the matter of numerous Saints appearing in Great Xia, and the other wave is for Han Sen’s matter.”
“At normal speed, they will arrive within ten days at the latest.”
“At that time, if there is only this evidence, it will be difficult to deal with the special envoys sent by the General Tower…”
As Xu Nian spoke, his Face couldn’t help but show a hint of worry for the Great Xia Dynasty.
