If possible, Xiaoyao hoped that this mistake wasn't irrevocable; he didn't want his life to be a tragic drama of revenge and love. If one wanted to see such tragedies, they could go watch them at the theater, but he preferred his own life not to be like that.

"What's your fault The mistake is Lo Yuntian’s and the mother of this bastard," Yun KaiTai immediately said, "Back then you should have killed him; now there wouldn't be so many troubles."

"Xiaoyao, come with me," Yun Qingyi pulled Xiaoyao and walked away without looking back.

Xiaoyao wanted to ask about the situation at this moment but thought that asking Yun Qingyi was also futile. So he followed her, while Yun KaiTai merely shook his head helplessly as if allowing it.

"Headmaster, aren't you afraid that Miss will release him" One person asked Yun KaiTai.

"Do you think it’s possible" Yun KaiTai retorted.

"It's impossible. But for Miss…" The man shook his head; even if Xiaoyao was taken away by Yun Qingyi, he would still be watched over closely in the Fuyun Sect and wouldn't be able to escape.

That was also why Yun KaiTai allowed Xiaoyao to leave with Yun Qingyi. After all, Xiaoyao couldn't run anyway.

"Um, Madam Yun, what’s going on" When Xiaoyao was taken out by Yun Qingyi, he asked while noticing the people nearby monitoring him.

"Madam Yun… Indeed, this title is also good…" Yun Qingyi paused for a moment and continued: "They just want you to be their hostage because Fuyun Sect is currently at war with some people from Lo Family."

"What" Xiaoyao was taken aback; he had never thought of this outcome.

"Otherwise, what do you think"

"I thought your father wanted to resolve the enmity between my mother and you," Xiaoyao replied. That was also the biggest possibility he could think of.

"Actually, that's also because of this enmity; my father wanted you dead because he doesn't want your existence. He thinks both you and your mother are a stain on him, shaming him naturally," Yun Qingyi said coolly.

"Then what did you do" Xiaoyao asked. The stain was obvious without saying more; in the current situation, he didn’t really care to understand thoroughly but only wanted to know what Yun Qingyi had done back then.

"Don't you want to know about Lo Family’s situation now" Yun Qingyi looked at Xiaoyao curiously. At this moment, wasn't it normal for one to ask about the current state of Lo Family

"That doesn’t need asking; I already know. Now your Fuyun Sect must be struggling because of those few women, and you can do nothing against them, so you’re using me as a hostage hoping to gain some leverage," Xiaoyao waved his hand and replied. He believed in the abilities of those few women and at this moment he guessed it right away.

"True, these little devils are indeed very capable; I can only sigh that new talents surpass old ones." Yun Qingyi smiled slightly when mentioning Solitary Star and others, seemingly regarding them as juniors.

"Sure. Later on, tell me about their situations," Xiaoyao said smilingly. He felt this wasn't the main point but didn’t mean he didn’t want to know; he wanted to know what these women had done and would be happy and proud of them.

If Solitary Star knew Xiaoyao’s attitude, they would surely be very happy, especially Solitary Star who was proving this. She wanted Xiaoyao to be proud of her and get his praise.

"Now you can easily find out about their situation anywhere; just that you don’t know. I’ve heard that you trained somewhere for three years, and now your strength seems unfathomable to me," Yun Qingyi looked at Xiaoyao; she noticed Xiaoyao’s power wasn't something she could comprehend anymore. In the past, it was clear.

Yun Qingyi was currently at the peak of Holy Rank but had been stuck here without breaking through. Normally her talent should have allowed a breakthrough long ago, and she was one of the rare geniuses.

The only reason she hadn’t advanced further was because of her mental state problem; due to Lo Yuntian and Fang Chunsnow, she remained stagnant here. For this, she didn't strongly desire progress but rather left it up to fate.

"This… Hehe, actually not much, just a bit of concealing techniques. Let's talk about the main point; what did you do back then and what was the situation" Xiaoyao changed the topic; his circumstances were somewhat hard to explain but not secrets; it was simply a bit difficult to explain, so he didn't bother wasting time on this.

"Speaking of which, it's kind of hard to say. All these are my mistakes, you have to forgive your father…" Yun Qingyi said when she opened her mouth with Xiaoyao forgiving Lo Yuntian as the first thing; regarding herself, she seemed to think it didn't matter because she felt no need to ask for forgiveness.

"Tell me about the situation first; whether I forgive or not isn’t important," Xiaoyao said coolly.

Yun Qingyi looked at Xiaoyao for a moment, seemingly understanding his mindset. Whether he forgave her father was irrelevant; Lo Yuntian was still his father and this couldn't be changed.

No matter what Lo Yuntian had done, he would risk his life to save him, but that didn’t mean he would acknowledge him. This was the difference.

"Alright…

Cloud Qingyi nodded, and at this moment, they arrived at a relatively quiet courtyard, which seemed to be her own. She sat down and gestured for Xianyao to sit beside her.

When Xianyao was about to sit down, someone appeared in the courtyard, staring blankly at him for a while before rushing towards him.

"Brother!!"

This person was Luo Yinping. After several years without seeing each other, she had grown from a little girl into a young lady and resembled Cloud Qingyi greatly, with her breathtaking beauty.

"Yinping, it's been a few years since we last met; you've grown up," Xianyao embraced the rushing Luo Yinping and then smiled as he said this.

"Yes, I've grown up and become stronger." Upon leaving Xianyao's embrace, she seemed to realize that such behavior was inappropriate now that she had matured into an adult.

"Very good," Xianyao patted Luo Yinping on the head.

"Brother, it turns out you are my real brother. No wonder I like you so much." Looking at Xianyao, she was somewhat confused but could feel his sincere affection through her confusion.

When Luo Yinping found out that Xianyao was her real brother back then, she had been very happy but also sad due to the circumstances. Initially believing that she had lost this brother, she had grieved for a long time until learning he was still alive.

At that point, she wanted to return immediately, but Cloud Qingyi hadn't done so because she felt unworthy of returning home. Later on, Yun Ketai also prevented her from going back and used Xianyao as an excuse to start a war.

This made it even harder for both to go back; Luo Yinping would only be caught in the middle if she returned.

"Brother, did you already know I was your sister when we first met" Luo Yinping asked.

“Yes,” Xianyao nodded.

“Humph, bad brother, why didn’t you tell me” Luo Yinping said somewhat angrily.

"Didn't I say that you are my sister You just never thought about it. What does it have to do with me" Xianyao shrugged.

“…” Luo Yinping fell silent for a moment. Indeed, Xianyao had always called her his sister, but at the time she thought he meant she was a cousin by blood.

"Eh Who is this little sister She's so adorable," Luo Yinping quickly became distracted by the creature on Xianyao’s shoulder, ChiChi.

“My daughter. Her name is Aunt…” At this moment, Xianyao introduced ChiChi to her, which made ChiChi pout unhappily; although she still couldn't speak, her expressions were nearly perfect.

"Daughter" Cloud Qingyi was equally surprised at this point; she had long noticed ChiChi but hadn’t had the chance to ask about her. Yun Ketai and others also observed ChiChi without questioning further.

They all had important matters to discuss, so they weren't concerned about a little girl.

"Brother, who is this sister you have with Is it Lone Star Sister or Ink Words Sister…" Luo Yinping asked. Although she hadn’t met them before, she almost heard about Lone Star and the others every day. She also knew that they were Xianyao's beloved women.

Cloud Qingyi was equally curious; she didn't know which woman he had with him, but actually, what she cared about most was whether he favored any particular one of them. Each of these women seemed excellent to her, and if given a choice between them, she wouldn’t be able to pick just one.

Of course, she didn't have an opinion on this matter…

Xianyao tapped Luo Yinping lightly and said: "Go play somewhere else. This is a little妖獸I raised when I was young."

"妖獸" Both Luo Yinping and Cloud Qingyi were startled, looking at ChiChi as if she could not possibly be a妖獸; she looked just like a little girl.

However, they weren't overly surprised because they had heard about妖獸shapeshifting before and did not delve further into the matter.

"Alright Yinping, I still have something to discuss with your brother. Don’t speak for now; just listen." Cloud Qingyi said at this point without minding that Luo Yinping would overhear it as she felt it was knowledge she should be privy to and she was old enough.

Luo Yinping replied, then tried to pick up ChiChi but the latter slipped into Xianyao's arms, leaving her with nothing to do.

"Speaking of your mother’s relationship with Yun Tian, it was actually caused by me. When I was young and temperamental, I couldn't tolerate a mundane life and often complained about Yun Tian…" Cloud Qingyi started recounting the past events; though they were trivial things, she felt compelled to mention them as they left a profound impression.

These matters without exception were all instances where Luo Yuntian endured her, although individually insignificant. In fact, if such incidents accumulated over time, changes would inevitably occur. (To be continued)ery enticing.
