"Holy Maiden Ruo, you're back."
"The Clan Head said that when you returned, you should bring... um, this Peerless prodigy Li Yun from the Mystic Moon Country to the main hall."
The Yunya Saintess's real name is Bai Youruo.
In the White Emperor Family, except for the top echelon, everyone calls her Holy Maiden Ruo.
Clearly, her every move was also quite attracting the attention of the White Emperor Family. The moment she stepped into the main entrance of the White Emperor Family's main residence with Li Yun, someone immediately came forward to greet her.
However, the attitude of the person who came was very interesting, at least in Li Yun's opinion, it was quite interesting.
Towards the Yun Ya Saintess Bai Youruo, the person was extremely respectful, their attitude almost bowing down to the dust, but when looking at Li Yun, their eyes were slanted and casual, with a clear disdain. The sense of superiority from being born in the White Emperor Family was overwhelmingly strong.
And the other party's strength.
In Li Yun's opinion, he was just a Soaring Sky Warrior who was slightly stronger than an ordinary Soaring Sky Realm.
A mere Soaring Sky Realm Warrior actually dared to treat a Peerless prodigy who had already counter-killed a Celestial Supreme with such a contemptuous attitude, and even knew that the other party was favored by Bai Youruo and personally led into the White Emperor Family.
Simply unbelievable...
It can only be said that the White Emperor Family's reputation truly gave these people of the White Emperor Family an unparalleled sense of pride and courage.
However, Li Yun didn't intend to bother.
Not that he didn't dare, but it was pointless.
There are people from high-status families who look down on others everywhere, so how could the White Emperor Family be an exception?
Anyway, he just remained silent, quietly watching the other party flaunt his superiority.
But Bai Youruo's expression wasn't good.
A mere Soaring Sky Realm Warrior dared to slight and despise Li Yun in front of her. Although she knew this wasn't directed at her, but rather a habitual attitude, she still felt very embarrassed.
Li Yun is a rare sight in history, the only Nine Thunder Mythical Celestial.
Let alone a mere Soaring Sky Realm Warrior.
Even if the strongest Celestial Supreme of the White Emperor Family came, he wouldn't be enough for Li Yun to kill with a single slap, and he wouldn't be qualified to show off in front of Li Yun.
Such showing off, besides revealing the lowliness and lack of humility of these White Emperor Family disciples in front of Li Yun, had no benefit whatsoever.
But as a powerful expert of the Reaching Heaven Nine Realms Sixth Realm, Divine Martial Realm, she couldn't possibly bother with such a foolish Soaring Sky Realm Warrior face to face, it would simply lower her status.
She merely responded indifferently, indicating she understood, and then led Li Yun forward, not giving that Soaring Sky Realm Warrior a direct look from beginning to end.
That person was also slightly stunned, sensing the Yunya Saintess's dissatisfaction, but didn't dare to speak.
He could only turn around and follow behind.
His eyes, however, kept staring at Li Yun's back.
"This guy doesn't look special at all. Besides being a bit younger and handsomer, there's nothing else. Can he really counter-kill the Celestial Supreme of Flying Sky City?"
"How can I believe that?"
"He's in the Soaring Sky Realm, and I'm also in the Soaring Sky Realm. I really don't believe I'm inferior to him. I'll definitely find an opportunity to let him properly experience the power of our White Emperor Family, so he doesn't think there's no one capable in our White Emperor Family."
...
The Yunya Saintess had no idea that the Soaring Sky Realm Warrior behind her was still harboring malicious thoughts, not only continuing to regard Li Yun as a Soaring Sky Realm Warrior but also plotting to find an opportunity to suppress Li Yun.
She led Li Yun forward.
From time to time, she would take the initiative to introduce Li Yun to the situation of the White Emperor Family's main residence and also apologize to Li Yun through sound transmission.
"You don't need to take that guy seriously. They are just a bunch of incompetent fools who are arrogant and self-righteous under the banner of the White Emperor Family. Bothering with such people will only lower your status and ruin your mood."
"Haha, Saintess Senior... Oh, I almost forgot, in the White Emperor Family, I should call you Holy Maiden Ruo. Don't worry, I'm not that bored."
"However, looking at that guy's attitude... I'm afraid the White Emperor Family won't be too welcoming to me?"
Li Yun wasn't stupid.
Some things can actually be glimpsed from some small figures at the bottom.
It must be that even before he arrived at White Emperor City, some people in the White Emperor Family had quite a bit of discussion about him, and the discussions were not favorable.
Otherwise, how could a mere Soaring Sky Realm Warrior dare to be so presumptuous?
Furthermore.
What kind of person is the Yunya Saintess?
In terms of cultivation, she is a powerful expert of the Reaching Heaven Nine Realms Sixth Realm - Divine Martial Realm, one of the four strongest experts in the current White Emperor Family, and also one of the pillars of the White Emperor Family.
In terms of status, she was once the Holy Daughter of White Emperor City, and now she is the fourth-ranked Elder of the White Emperor Family.
Such an existence, not to mention being on equal footing with the White Emperor Family's Clan Head Bai Tianhuang, but she is also a person of great importance with real power.
Knowing full well that the Yunya Saintess brought someone back from outside, the Clan Head only sent a small Soaring Sky Realm Warrior to greet them, tsk tsk... If he said it wasn't intentional, Li Yun really wouldn't believe it.
However, thinking of the Yunya Saintess's purpose in actively seeking his cooperation, he felt relieved.
In fact.
The reason why the Yunya Saintess sought his cooperation to compete for the position of the Third Holy Son was not at all like others speculated, that she was provoking the Lie Tian Royal Clan.
She wasn't that foolish.
The Sky-Splitting Dynasty controls a vast territory spanning millions of miles. Countless families, Sects, and even some countries must prostrate themselves under the might of the Sky-Splitting Dynasty, not daring to rebel in the slightest. The strength of the Lie Tian Royal Clan has already explained everything.
How could she possibly provoke the Lie Tian Royal Clan for the sake of an insignificant position as an outsider White Emperor City Holy Son?
Not only was she not provoking the Lie Tian Royal Clan, on the contrary, she was targeting the White Emperor Family itself.
As early as eight hundred years ago.
The Yun Ya Saintess Bai Youruo had a dispute with the Clan Head Bai Tianhuang during a Clan internal meeting. Bai Youruo left in anger, originally only intending to temporarily avoid the conflict and ease the tension with Bai Tianhuang.
However, unexpectedly, after she left White Emperor City, her whereabouts were somehow discovered, and she was ambushed.
Because of this ambush, she was directly severely injured and had to hide in the remote Eastern Cloud Continent of the Mystic Moon Country to recover.
But since then, she has had some doubts about the Clan's internal affairs.
Returning to White Emperor City eight hundred years later, she felt even more strongly that there seemed to be a mysterious force hidden within the Clan, seemingly plotting something.
But she couldn't find the source of this hidden force at all.
She was originally secretly anxious. It was only at this time that Li Yun's appearance made her see a glimmer of hope. Thus, she quickly made a decision, actively appeared and took Li Yun away, which led to this cooperation.
Li Yun's strength was also more exaggerated than she had anticipated.
This also filled her with confidence in this cooperation. As long as the plan was executed properly and they seized the spot for the Third Holy Son, no matter how deeply that mysterious force was hidden, she would have a way to expose it.
Therefore.
Hearing Li Yun's words, the Yunya Saintess also let out a cold laugh.
"They naturally won't welcome you, but whether they welcome you or not is not up to them!"
