Chapter 158: Return

“Wow! So high, the cat is amazing.”

On Black Wind’s back, the little girl cheered excitedly. Little Yao, flying for the first time, was just like a child who had just discovered a new world, jumping around.

“You little girl, if you call me ‘little cat’ again, I won’t let you off.”

Black Wind rolled his eyes and threatened her.

“Oh! You’re so easy to upset. Alright, alright, I won’t call you that anymore, little cat.”

“Do you believe that I will throw you down from this high place?”

Black Wind was getting really frustrated.

“I don’t believe you! The little cat wouldn’t want to let Little Yao fall.”

Little Yao stuck out her tongue, not accepting any treats.

Black Wind wanted to cry but had no tears.

“Haha…”

Yun Yi laughed loudly, saying that the unruly Black Wind had met his match.

“Alright, from now on I won’t call you Little Kitty, I’ll call you Little Black instead.”

Little Yao said very seriously.

“What? Why does it still have a ‘Little’ in it?”

Black Wind looked very upset.

“Then let’s still call you Little Kitty.”

Little Yao said.

“Fine, let it be Little Black.”

Black Wind had no strength to argue; Little Black was still better than a little cat.

“Black Wind, speed up a bit.”

Yun Yi spoke, his gaze growing a bit cold as he looked towards the Yanwu family.

“Got it!”

Black Wind’s strong body shook, suddenly doubling its speed. This cat thrived on chaos; it knew that once they returned to the Yanwu family, there would be a good show to watch. Given Yun Yi’s personality and style, this time he would not let things go easily. He might not be able to defeat Yuan Zhongshan now, but he could take his anger out on Yuan Yin.

According to Yan Chong, the one who sent him to assassinate Yun Yi in Jade Wheel City was Yuan Hui’s brother, Yuan Yin.

Little Yao, full of excitement, noticed the coldness in Yun Yi’s eyes and quickly became quiet. She knew her brother was about to do something important.

In the Yanwu family, within the first-class area, Yuan Zhongshan and his grandson gathered in a separate courtyard.

“Is Yan Chong trustworthy?”

Yuan Zhongshan asked.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. Yan Chong is skilled in poison and surprise attacks. Speaking of Yun Yi, I doubt he can even handle Pan Hong. Even if he somehow manages to kill Pan Hong, he will certainly be badly injured. At that time, under Yan Chong’s surprise attack, he would surely die. I’ve calculated it: Yan Chong returned from Jade Wheel City only two or three days ago, and Yun Yi has a flying cat that can come back quickly from Jade Wheel City. Last night was the full moon; if Yun Yi hasn’t returned by today, it means he has died in Jade Wheel City. It’s foolproof, no need to worry.”

Yuan Yin said with a smile, sounding very confident. He understood Yan Chong too well; he was a very sinister person, and since Yuan Yin had offered benefits, he would surely help eliminate Yun Yi.

“That’s good.”

Yuan Zhongshan nodded. He actually shared the same thoughts as Yuan Yin; in their minds, Pan Hong was enough to defeat Yun Yi. They only called on Yan Chong to prevent Yun Yi from hiding out of fear of Pan Hong.

Ruoshui Garden!

Xiao Ruoshui stood on a rock formation in the yard, looking towards the direction of Jade Wheel City. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with waves of light as she murmured, “Yun Yi, don’t let me down.”

There was a look of worry on Xiao Ruoshui’s face. She didn’t even realize that she had started to care about a man, and this was the first time in her life.

Meanwhile, Xiao Liufeng stood at the highest point of the mountain, looking into the distance, with Shen Hao beside him.

“Master, do you think Yun Yi can complete the task and come back?”

Shen Hao asked.

“What do you think?”

Xiao Liufeng replied.

“I don’t know either. I hope Junior Brother Yun can create a miracle, but that Pan Hong is really hard to deal with. It’s truly worrying.”

Shen Hao said, sharing his true feelings. In fact, many people in the Yanwu family, like Shen Hao, did not have faith in Yun Yi. It seemed that very few believed in him, especially since this task was extremely dangerous, with a great risk to his life.

“I’m not worried about Pan Hong; I’m worried about the other members of the family.”

Xiao Liufeng said. He had confidence in Yun Yi. He believed that Yun Yi was not a reckless person and wouldn’t do things without certainty. When Yun Country was in turmoil, Yun Yi got through it, and with one Pan Hong, he believed Yun Yi could handle it.

But what truly worried Xiao Liufeng was another person within the family.

“Do you think Elder Yuan Zhongshan might secretly try to harm Junior Brother Yun? Yes, Junior Brother Yun defeated Yuan Hui, and Yuan Zhongshan and Yuan Yin must hold a grudge. This trip to Jade Wheel City is a great opportunity. Even if the young lady clearly says no one should harm Junior Brother Yun in secret, it’s hard to ensure they won’t take action.”

Shen Hao frowned and said. He was a clever man and naturally understood Xiao Liufeng’s worries.

“I hope this young man can really create a miracle. A talented alchemist from ancient times, if he were to perish like this, it would be a blind act of heaven.”

Xiao Liufeng looked up at the sky, filled with expectation.

Time passed bit by bit, and the entire Yanwu family silently waited for something. The night of the full moon had passed, and everyone knew that if Yun Yi completed his mission, he would be coming back soon.

The blazing sun was high in the sky, and there was a quarter of an hour until noon when a shadow suddenly appeared in the distance. The shadow did not hide its presence at all, and many people noticed it right away.

The shadow gradually grew larger and completely revealed itself to everyone; it was a huge black cat with wings, flying in the air. On its back were two people—a boy in white clothes, standing against the wind, his black hair flying behind him, and his handsome face was filled with confidence.

Beside the young boy, there was a girl who looked like a porcelain doll, with big, dark eyes that watched everything around her, seeming incredibly curious about everything.

“Look, it’s Yun Yi! Yun Yi has come back! Oh my, he is really alive!”

“Yun Yi has come back! Yun Yi has come back!”

“This kid really came back, but I wonder if he killed Pan Hong and completed the lady’s task. He didn’t really kill Pan Hong, did he?”

“Look at his aura! Oh my, he’s reached the sixth grade of the Innate Realm! He actually advanced to the sixth grade of the Innate Realm! That’s unbelievable! He was only at the fourth grade of the Innate Realm when he left, and now, in just a few days, he has risen two levels.”

…

Many people saw the boy on Black Wind’s back. Suddenly, the whole Yanwu family erupted in cheers. Countless people were shocked. Many didn’t believe Yun Yi had completed the task and killed Pan Hong, but some felt Yun Yi’s current power and immediately thought that he really might have killed Pan Hong, completing the lady’s task.
