Chapter 41: What? Nine?
"Ha ha, I said the Young General is fine; a talent like the Young General is naturally blessed with great fortune."
Qian Luofeng laughed heartily; seeing that Yun Yi was all right made him feel happy. During these days when Yun Yi was in closed-door training, Qian Luofeng was quite worried about him.
"I didn’t expect His Highness to have such extraordinary talent. We truly underestimated him before."
Marquis Wenyuan said with a smile.
"Yes, I always said that the Yun family could not have a useless person. Now that we see he surpasses the previous generation, everything makes sense."
"Indeed, His Highness is already the number one expert in Qizhou State at just sixteen years old. His future achievements are simply hard to believe."
General Zhennan and the Western War King also spoke up; although there might be a hint of flattery, their praise was heartfelt.
The way the three referred to Yun Yi naturally changed. Now that Yun Feilong is the Emperor of Yun Country, Yun Yi is naturally His Highness.
Psychologically, Marquis Wenyuan and the others are very grateful to Yun Yi. In their moment of need, it was Yun Yi who helped them.
Yun Yi’s performance in the battle at the Imperial Capital touched many hearts and will be recorded in history, becoming a lovely story for Qizhou State. Not only did he defeat the Chu Kingdom, but he also intimidated the Liang Kingdom, bringing peace to Qizhou State.
"Alright, you all can leave. I need to speak to Yi’er."
Yun Canghai waved his hand, signaling everyone to go away.
"Yes."
No one dared to treat Yun Canghai’s words lightly. This old man in a wheelchair is now the Grand Emperor, and his words in Yun Country hold more weight than Yun Feilong’s.
Everyone exited, leaving three generations of descendants in the courtyard.
At this moment, Yun Canghai’s expression suddenly turned extremely serious.
"Yi’er, tell grandpa the truth. How are you doing right now? In the battle at the Imperial Capital, you burned your life force to forcibly awaken the Second Spirit Body. This kind of condition cannot recover on its own."
Yun Canghai stared at Yun Yi. Although Yun Canghai was not very powerful, he had lived for many years and understood many things better than most people.
"Yi’er, your grandfather and I both want to know about your situation."
Yun Feilong also spoke. Both of them knew about Yun Yi’s Innate Dao Body, but what they cared about most now was not Yun Yi’s Innate Dao Body but his injuries.
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from grandpa."
Yun Yi smiled bitterly and said, "After my Innate Dao Body awakened, it gave me a huge boost beyond the ordinary. The spirit body can have more than one, but my Second Spirit Body can only be awakened after entering the innate realm. When I fought the old emperor that day and was in a life-or-death situation, I had no choice but to forcibly activate my Second Spirit Body, burning a great deal of my life force. However, once the Fire Spirit Body awakened, the loss of life force was replenished. Although it didn’t return to its peak state, it won’t affect me much. Besides, when my father ascends to the throne, I will leave Qizhou State. The Eastern Wilderness is vast, and I can surely find a way to recover, so you and father don’t need to worry about that."
Yun Yi’s words were half true and half false. The false part was that even after activating the Fire Spirit Body, it could not help him restore his lost life force or replenish his lifespan. The truth was that the loss of lifespan did not affect his cultivation or fighting power. With his current first grade of the Innate Realm, he could easily defeat third grade of the Innate Realm and could even battle fourth grade of the Innate Realm.
However, Yun Yi only had three years left to live. If he could not find a way to restore his life force within these three years, he would run out of the last bit of his life force and die.
Although Yun Canghai and Yun Feilong were skeptical, they saw that Yun Yi was serious. Plus, Yun Yi indeed looked full of life, so they did not say much more.
As for Yun Yi’s plan to leave Qizhou State, Yun Canghai and Yun Feilong felt reluctant but had expected it.
"Yi’er, although Grandpa is reluctant, with your talent, staying in this small Qizhou State is truly too much for you. You are a mighty dragon, destined to soar high in the sky. Qizhou State is just a tiny part of the Ling Tian Continent. The outside world is what is exciting, and it belongs to you. Your father and I are both proud of you."
Yun Canghai said.
"Grandpa, Dad, I won’t let you down."
Yun Yi patted his chest.
"You have indeed grown up, and the changes in the Yun family have made you mature completely. Bloodcoat has told me about your performance during this time. I am also proud of you. Qizhou State cannot hold you back, great dragon. It is time to go out and explore. But remember, no matter where you go, this place will always be your home. Your grandfather and I will be waiting for you here. The outside world is very dangerous, so do not act recklessly. You are the only hope of our Yun family."
Yun Feilong said solemnly. It was clear that sending Yun Yi away from Qizhou State was not easy for him as a father, but he would not hold back Yun Yi’s future. After all, with Yun Yi’s current abilities, Qizhou State offers no challenges at all.
More importantly, Yun Yi has something even more important to do, which is to find every possible way to regain the life force he has lost. This cannot be done in Qizhou State.
"Don’t worry, Dad. I have experienced life and death."
Yun Yi smiled. After going through the changes in the Yun family, he had completely transformed and was no longer that naive young boy.
"By the way, Yi’er, what is the Innate Dao Body like? Your father and I have been curious for sixteen years, so please tell us quickly."
Yun Canghai said, and both of them looked at Yun Yi with eager eyes.
You should know that the Innate Dao Body has always been a legendary divine body. They had no understanding of the Innate Dao Body at all, but from Yun Yi’s performance, they could see how terrifying the Innate Dao Body was. Just at the innate realm, Yun Yi had already awakened two spirit bodies. Listening to Yun Yi’s words, it seemed that there would be even more spirit bodies in the future, which was simply unbelievable.
"The Innate Dao Body is incredibly mysterious; even I do not fully understand it yet."
Yun Yi shook his head.
"I am particularly interested in how many spirit bodies the Innate Dao Body can awaken."
Yun Feilong asked.
Yun Yi thought for a moment and then said, "If nothing unusual happens, it should be nine."
To be honest, Yun Yi himself did not know how many spirit bodies the Innate Dao Body could finally awaken. But from what he heard about the Dark Spirit Body and Fire Spirit Body related to the Black Lotus and Fire Lotus, he judged that the nine lotus platforms indeed meant that it could open up nine spirit bodies.
What?
Nine?
Yun Feilong stumbled and almost fell to the ground, and Yun Canghai also rolled his eyes, feeling as if he saw stars.
