Against The Sky Supreme

Yu Yunxi parted her lips slightly and speculated, “Su Bing was forcibly taken away, and Tan Yun mentioned it to me.”

“Calculating the time, it has been over a hundred thousand years. She must have missed Tan Yun very much after such a long time without any news.”

“If I were her, upon learning that Tan Yun was searching for her, I would definitely express my longing for him in the letter.”

“However, this letter does not contain a single word of longing; it only contains reminders for Tan Yun, asking him not to worry about her.”

“Therefore, this does not conform to what a wife deeply in love would write to her husband.”

Upon hearing this, Dao Kun frowned tightly. “Are you implying that this letter is not from Su Bing? That’s impossible! The person who brought back the letter is one of my trusted subordinates; he would never deceive me.”

“I never said this letter wasn’t from Su Bing,” Yu Yunxi replied.

“Then what do you mean?” Dao Kun pressed for clarification.

Yu Yunxi thought for a moment and said, “From a woman’s perspective, I boldly speculate that Su Bing must be very afraid of Tan Yun encountering danger while searching for her, which is why she advised him not to seek her due to her low strength.”

“The reason Su Bing didn’t mention her longing for Tan Yun in the letter is that she buried her feelings deep in her heart, not wanting Tan Yun to see her longing for him and thus prompting him to search for her hastily.”

“Thus, I deduce that Fu Chashu has another purpose for capturing Su Bing and the others; as for what that purpose is, I cannot know.”

“Of course, what’s important is…” Yu Yunxi looked at Tan Yun and said, “They are indeed not in life-threatening danger.”

“Moreover, I also believe that Sister Su Bing and the others can handle their own safety. Once you grow stronger, you can go and rescue them.”

“Therefore, Tan Yun, you must endure now and not act impulsively. You need to increase your strength as quickly as possible, and then head to the Eastern Continent Divine Domain.”

Listening to Yu Yunxi’s words, Tan Yun nodded in agreement.

“The Seventh Princess is indeed meticulous and astutely clever,” Dao Kun clasped his hands in admiration. “I admire you.”

“You flatter me, Senior,” Yu Yunxi smiled gracefully.

Dao Kun turned to Tan Yun and comforted him, “Yun’er, don’t worry too much about them. As the Seventh Princess said, your priority now should be to increase your strength.”

“Mm, I will definitely do that!” Tan Yun replied firmly.

Then, as if recalling something, he asked, “Oh right, has Miao Qingqing returned?”

“She returned a while ago,” Dao Kun said. “But this girl has been sulking ever since her return, as if someone owes her something. When I asked her, she wouldn’t say a word.”

Tan Yun naturally knew that Miao Qingqing was angry because of him.

“Then... how is Bingshuan?” Tan Yun asked, feeling a bit guilty.

“Oh right, since you mentioned Bingshuan, I almost forgot,” Dao Kun furrowed his white brows. “Yun’er, what happened between you and Bingshuan?”

“She went with Qingqing to find you, yet she returned alone early from the Western Continent Ancestral Dynasty.”

“Bingshuan was raised by me. Although she keeps saying she’s fine and has been smiling, I can tell that she carries a heavy heart, and her smile is very forced.”

A hint of guilt flashed in Tan Yun's eyes. “Don’t worry, Senior. There was a misunderstanding between Bingshuan and me. I will explain it to her clearly.”

“I promise to return you a happy Bingshuan tomorrow.”

Dao Kun chuckled and suggested, “Yun’er, with your words, I can rest easy.”

“Yun’er! The matters of young people are not for an old man like me to inquire too much about, but you should know that sometimes you just need to spoil a girl a little.”

Tan Yun nodded, indicating that he understood, and then asked, “Is Zi Xi feeling better now?”

“She’s better, much better,” Dao Kun said excitedly. “The palace master’s Fiery Heart Poison Fire was completely eliminated three months ago.”
