Chapter 329: Yun Xiao’s Return (8)

Translator: DRZ Editor: Rock

Yun Luofeng stared blankly. She did not expect the reason for Yun Xiao's delayed return was because he had gone to the Spirit Sect to take care of matters for her.

This man had always done everything for her without her noticing!

Thinking of this, a warm current gushed forth from her heart as her gaze gradually shifted away from Yun Xiao and landed on the middle-aged man who was walking in large strides behind Qin Yuan.

The middle-aged man saw the gorgeous young lady standing before Yun Xiao in a glance and a trace of deep astonishment flashed through his eyes. It's no wonder the Ghost Emperor would get angry for this woman, as no one would not be moved by such a gorgeous young lady.

"Ghost Emperor." Si Qiong walked up hastily and took a deep bow before Yun Xiao before he looked toward Yun Luofeng, "Miss Yun, the previous matters were my daughter's mistakes and I've already punished her. I would like to ask Miss Yun to forgive our Spirit Sect!"

His face carried a flattering smile and no longer had the awe-inspiring authority of being the Sect Master of the Spirit Sect.

Yun Luofeng lightly raised her brows, "Si Xuan's position within the Spirit Sect must have been very high, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to mobilize that many high-level cultivators."

Si Qiong's expression was somewhat awkward and his voice contained anxiety, as he was afraid of Yun Luofeng misunderstanding him.

"Miss Yun, Si Xuan had the favor of those elders within the Spirit Sect, therefore they had complied with her assignments. I can vow that I was completely unrelated to those matters."

"Is that so?" The young lady's eyes contained a smiling intent and her pitch-black eyes seemed to be able to see everything clearly as she looked straight at Si Qiong.

Si Qiong's heart felt somewhat weak. He indeed knew that his daughter had mobilized the power of the Spirit Sect, but he was unaware that this matter was related to the Ghost Emperor. Due to the trust he had in his daughter, he had passed his authority within the Spirit Sect to her. Otherwise, with Si Xuan's abilities, she did not have the right to mobilize high-level cultivators within the Spirit Sect.

Of course, he would never mention this to Yun Luofeng.

"Miss Yun, I can swear to god, I was absolutely unaware of this! I beg of you to believe in me! Also, I Si Qiong, am willing to work extremely hard for Miss Yun and vow my loyalty and devotion to you!"

Si Qiong's expression no longer had its previous flattering as it turned exceptionally serious, making it so you couldn't help but believe his words.

However...

Yun Luofeng would never believe that Si Qiong was totally unaware of Si Xuan's actions. If he truly was unaware, then he was indeed a worthless Sect Master of the Spirit Sect!

"He can be used." Yun Xiao spared a glance at Si Qiong as his pitch-black eyes turned towards Yun Luofeng and spoke in a serious tone, "I had Qin Yuan feed him a poisonous pill. With the pill to control him, he can never betray you."

Yun Luofeng nodded, "The Yun Family lacks someone to do odd jobs. Since he's willing to work like an ox, then I shall leave him here to do chores."

"Thank you for your kindness."

As the proverb says, better to have a bad life than a good death. As long as he could stay alive, not to mention making him do odd jobs, he would be willing even if he was really asked to work like an ox!

"Your Spirit Sect is the backstage supporter of the Longyuan Kingdom. May I know how you are going to handle the Imperial Family's matters? Yun Luofeng languidly leaned on a tree beside her and asked in a smiling yet not smiling manner.

Si Qiong respectfully replied, "I shall let Miss Yun make the decisions."

Yun Luofeng lightly rubbed her chin and spoke, "The Seventh Prince of the Longyuan Kingdom is pretty good. Although he is a bit young, his wisdom has sufficiently matured. He is also the only person that had placed his safety first, instead of fighting for the throne, during this chaotic time."

The mother of the Seventh Prince of the Longyuan Kingdom had passed away early, so he did not have a deep relationship with Gao Tu, who viewed him as a dispensable existence.
