The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

Chapter 388 White Lotus or Flower Maniac

A month later, the door that had been closed for a long time finally opened, and an elegant figure walked out of the room.

"Mother~"

Su Qingning and Su Qingyu happily went to greet her. Yun Ruopiao had just completed a breakthrough and her aura had not yet completely subsided. The brother and sister immediately felt her powerful aura.

"Mom, have you made a breakthrough? What realm are you in now?" Su Qingning asked with half surprise and half expectation.

"Yes." Yun Ruopiao smiled and nodded, "After this period of closed-door training, I finally broke through to the Saint Venerable Realm."

Saint Venerable Realm?! Oh my god!

Everyone looked at Yun Ruopiao as if they were looking at a legend. No one could have imagined that the ordinary woman who was once foolish and silly was actually a hidden master who had broken through the Saint Venerable Realm at such a young age. No wonder her sons and daughters were so talented, it was simply genetics!

"Ning'er, Yu'er." Yun Ruopiao held one of them by each hand. She looked into the distance, her eyes filled with longing and a hint of coldness. "Now that mother is strong enough to protect you, it's time for us to return to the Yun family."

……

At noon, the sun was high in the sky, and the Yun family, which was solemn and dignified in the past, seemed a little depressed today.

Ever since a month ago, when everyone in the Yun family guessed that the young man Yun Yuxuan saw that night was Yun Ruopiao's son, they mobilized people to look for that young man.

However, a month passed and they didn't even find the shadow of the young man.

"How could we not find him?" Yun Jizhou sighed in disappointment, his voice filled with loneliness. "Could it be that he has already left Fengling City?"

"Even if they left Fengling City, they can't leave no trace at all!" Yun Yifeng frowned, his tone full of doubt. "The people we sent out have searched several surrounding cities, but there's no news at all. This is really strange."

If what Yun Yuxuan said was true, and that young man really looked a lot like Yun Yijing, then how could no one have seen such a handsome face, which would be the focus wherever he went?

Everyone was puzzled, but Yun Yijing suddenly sneered.

"I say, haven't you thought of other possibilities?"

Yun Yimo looked over in confusion, "What's possible?"

Yun Yijing first glanced at his elder brother, then slowly turned his gaze to Yun Yuxuan.

"From the beginning, Yuxuan was the only one who had seen that young man. But whether this person actually existed in this world or not, we can't be sure at all, right?"

Hearing this, the others couldn't help but feel a little shaken. Although they were unwilling to doubt Yun Yuxuan, what Yun Yijing said did make some sense.

"Uncle, do you think I'm lying and deceiving everyone?" Yun Yuxuan's face turned cold.

"Yuxuan, you misunderstood. That's not what Second Uncle meant." Yun Yijing smiled and said, "Didn't you say that the young man disappeared into thin air after overcoming the tribulation? But how could a person disappear into thin air? So, I'm wondering, could it be that the young man you saw was just an illusion from the very beginning?"

"Impossible!" Yun Yuxuan shook his head. "If that young man was just an illusion, how do we explain the thunder tribulation? I checked, and there are indeed traces of lightning there."

Many people heard the thunder that night, and many people also saw the thunder tribulation. Although they did not see the person undergoing the tribulation, the thunder tribulation was real and could not be deceived.

Yun Yijing couldn't explain the problem of the thunder tribulation, and Yun Yuxuan couldn't explain why he couldn't find anyone. The two argued endlessly and neither could convince the other.

At this moment, a servant rushed in and said anxiously, "Master, something bad has happened. Miss Xue is arguing with someone at the door."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Yun family frowned in displeasure, and Yun Yijing's voice was filled with disgust.

"What's she up to? All she does all day is bully others in the name of the Yun family. She's ruined the Yun family's reputation."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across the servant's face, and he stammered, "It's... Miss Xue who has taken a fancy to a man. She wants him to be her male concubine, but he doesn't want to, so that's why they started arguing."

The Yun family members, who were already unhappy, became even more displeased after hearing the servant's words.

"Bang!" Yun Jizhou slammed the table hard and roared, "How could such a shameless thing emerge from my Yun family! A male concubine? How could she come up with such a thing!"

Yun Jizhou's chest was heaving with rage. He looked at Yun Yimo with a cold face and suppressed his anger as he ordered, "Boss, go and capture that disgraceful thing, lest she bring shame to our Yun family."

"Yes."

Yun Yi responded silently, stood up and was about to go outside, but just as he took a step, Yun Yijing also stood up.

"Brother, I'll go with you."

Yun Yimo turned his head to glance at his excited brother, shook his head helplessly in his heart, and then continued to walk outside without saying anything.

Everyone in the Yun family knew that Yun Yijing was a man who loved to watch the fun and no matter how much trouble he took, he would go wherever there was excitement, and his son Yun Yulin had exactly the same personality as him.

Just as Yun Yimo and Yun Yijing walked out of the main hall, he followed them.

……

Time goes back to a quarter of an hour ago. Su Qingning and Mo Lintian came to the gate of the Yun family based on their memory of sending Yun Xiaohan and Yun Xiaochen back last time.

Su Qingning looked at the two tall guards guarding the door and was about to take out her mother's jade pendant, but at this moment, a shout came from behind her.

"Hey guys in front, what are you doing blocking our door? Can't you see you're blocking our young lady's way?"

Miss? Miss Yun? Could it be Xiaohan?

Su Qingning was slightly stunned. When she turned around, what caught her eye was a young woman in a white gauze-style dress. She was holding a handkerchief in her hand, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked as graceful as a willow in the wind.

For a moment, Su Qingning felt the strong scent of white lotus coming towards her.

When the woman saw Su Qingning's appearance clearly, a hint of surprise and panic flashed in her eyes. It was this subtle change in her eyes that made Su Qingning guess her identity.

"Are you the daughter of the Yun family?"

Su Qingning looked at the woman in front of her and confirmed that she had no resemblance to herself, Xiaohan, or Xiaochen. She was basically certain that she did not have the blood of the Yun family. So, her identity was almost certain.

Sure enough, the next moment, the maidservant beside the woman said with a proud look on her face: "Our young lady is the eldest daughter of the Yun family, and she is about to become the Holy Maiden of the Temple. You two lowly people, why don't you kneel down and salute our young lady?"

"Kneel down and salute?" Su Qingning sneered, "Are you worthy enough?"

"How dare you! How dare you be so rude to our young lady!"

The maid yelled angrily and was about to step forward to teach Su Qingning a lesson, but Yun Xue suddenly reached out to stop her, just because she noticed Mo Lintian beside Su Qingning.

It has to be said that Mo Lintian's handsome face, which is like a demon, is a powerful weapon for women. Yun Xue is fascinated by his face.

Yun Xue looked at Mo Lintian with a charming smile and said softly, "Sir, I am Yun Xue, the daughter of the eldest elder of the Yun family. May I know your name, where you live, and if you are married?"

Seeing Yunxue staring at Mo Lintian, Su Qingning really didn't know whether she should be angry or laugh.

Yun Xue actually fell in love with her man. If I remember correctly, she should be the same age as my mother! Is she trying to get a young man?!

For a moment, Su Qingning was speechless, while Mo Lintian felt a chill. He was not blind, so how could he not understand the straightforward meaning in Yun Xue's eyes? And it was precisely because he understood it that he felt disgusted. After all, no one wanted to be liked by an old woman.

"How dare you! My lady asked you a question, why didn't you answer?"

When the maid saw that Mo Lintian ignored Yun Xue, she immediately shouted. Although she was also immersed in his beauty, it did not mean that he could ignore her young lady. Moreover, if the elder knew that she did not protect the young lady, she would definitely be punished.

Mo Lintian didn't react at all to the maid's words, and didn't even give her a glance. He just stared at Su Qingning intently. As for the reason, it was naturally because he was disgusted by Yun Xue's eyes and wanted to cleanse his eyes.

When Yun Xue saw that Mo Lintian only had eyes for Su Qingning and not herself, a hint of jealousy suddenly arose in her heart.

She looked at Su Qingning with unfriendly eyes. She didn't like her face which was very similar to someone else's. Now, because of Mo Lintian, she hated Su Qingning even more.

"Hey, I'll give you 10,000 high-quality spirit stones. You leave this young man and give him to me." Yun Xue said righteously.

When Su Qingning heard her words, she was so angry that she almost laughed. She thought the other party was a scheming white lotus, but she didn't expect that she was a brainless nymphomaniac.

Was it because of such a fool that my mother was infected with evil spirits and ended up in the Demonic Martial Continent?

Su Qingning suddenly felt a little suspicious. Perhaps it was true as her mother said, and there was someone else plotting against her behind her back.

"Hey! I'm talking to you, can you hear me?"

Seeing Su Qingning remained silent, Yun Xue frowned unhappily. She coldly threatened, "I advise you to be obedient and take the ten thousand high-grade spirit stones and get out of here. Otherwise..."

"What else?" Su Qingning finally broke her silence. She looked at Yun Xue with contempt, her tone full of sarcasm, "Miss Yun, are you trying to steal someone else's husband?"

"Are you married?"

Yunxue frowned slightly, but after a while, her brows relaxed again. She raised her chin with a proud attitude.

"Even if you are married, as long as I want you, you have no choice but to give me up."

As she spoke, Yun Xue's eyes turned, and she looked at Mo Lintian with a seductive look, and said gently and coaxingly, "My dear, I am the eldest daughter of the Yun family. In the near future, I will inherit the position of the Holy Maiden of the Temple. Instead of being with such a lowly person with no status and no position, you should follow me and become my male lover."

"I can promise you that as long as you follow me, I will definitely pamper you and give you the highest status. How about that?"

After saying that, Yun Xue looked at Mo Lintian with anticipation, and Mo Lintian finally gave her a look, but that look was full of disgust.

"Get lost!" Mo Lintian shouted coldly, his tone as cold as a knife. "Don't look at me with that disgusting look. I'm not interested in you, auntie."

Auntie?!

Yun Xue widened her eyes and looked at Mo Lintian in disbelief, "How dare you call me auntie?!"

"Did I call you wrong? You are an old woman who is almost forty years old. What else should I call you if not Auntie?" Mo Lintian was furious.

"Puchi~" Su Qingning couldn't help laughing out loud.

Originally, Yunxue was irritated by Mo Lintian's words "old woman" and "auntie", and now she heard Su Qingning's laughter, which was undoubtedly a mockery to her, and she immediately became angry and embarrassed.

The maidservant beside her was very good at reading people's expressions. When she saw Yun Xue was angry, she immediately shouted at the two guards guarding the gate, "What are you two doing standing there? Can't you see our young lady is being bullied? Hurry up and arrest these two lowly people, otherwise, when the Great Elder finds out, you won't be able to stay in the Yun Family anymore."

Hearing the maid's words, the two guards looked at each other. To be honest, they didn't like Yun Xue, especially after the eldest daughter disappeared. Yun Xue always regarded herself as the eldest daughter of the Yun family, which made everyone in the Yun family hate her even more. But she happened to have a powerful father, so even though the two guards didn't want to help her, they had to give in.

However, just as they were about to move forward, an angry shout came from inside the door, stopping them in their tracks.

"Yunxue, what are you doing?"

As the words fell, three slender figures walked out from the door. Su Qingning looked over, but was stunned when she saw one of them.

This...this person looks so much like Xiaoyu!

Su Qingning looked at Yun Yijing with anger in his face, her eyes full of surprise. She thought, this man must be her uncle!

Su Qingning's turning around allowed Yun Yimo and Yun Yijing to see her face clearly. The two brothers, who were originally angry, were stunned.

"Little...little sister?"

Yun Yijing murmured in surprise, but soon he realized that he had recognized the wrong person.

"No, that's not right. You're not the little sister."

……

A few minutes later, the solemn hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

A man in a navy blue robe sat at the head of the table with a dignified look on his face. He gently patted the handle of the wooden chair with his palms. His sharp eyes glanced at the maid and the guard kneeling in the middle of the hall, as well as Yun Xue who looked indifferent.

"Who can tell this family master what is going on?"

Yun Jizhou's voice was domineering and majestic, and one of the guards was so frightened by his aura that he fell to the ground.

Ever since Yun Ruopiao disappeared, Yun Jizhou has rarely asked about the Yun family's affairs, and all matters, big and small, have long been handed over to Yun Yimo to take care of.

Now, he suddenly interrogated him in person, and his tone was obviously angry. How could the guard not panic?
