Everyone was stunned for a moment, then a mature and beautiful woman dressed in an elegant brocade robe stepped forward and said respectfully:
"Emperor Chu, I am Hua Jin, the current sect leader of the Flower Sect!"
Chu Yang stared at Hua Jin for a long time, then shook his head and said, "You're not the sect leader. Do you really think I'm easy to fool?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Flower Sect's experts changed drastically!
Even the two immortals of Qinghua were covered in cold sweat, yet they were still somewhat baffled.
Hua Jin forced a smile and said, "Emperor Chu, since the old sect leader disappeared, I have indeed been in charge of the sect leader's duties!"
"All the elders and seniors present can testify to this!"
Chu Yang said calmly, "But as far as I know, Senior Hua Yu transferred the position of sect leader to someone else. I wonder where that person is?"
Everyone was dumbfounded again. Although the sect leader's token had also disappeared after Hua Yu went missing, they had never heard of Hua Yu designating a successor!
"Your Majesty the Chu Emperor... there's probably some misunderstanding here..."
Qingxian, one of the two immortals of Qinghua, stepped forward, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Chu Yang frowned. Whether these people's reactions were genuine or not, he could not hide it from his eyes.
It now appears that the higher-ups of the Flower Sect were indeed unaware of Hua Yu's situation, and Pangu's location for Yun Yun's coordinates was indeed within the Flower Sect.
But if Yun Yun was only seeing Hua Yu off at her deathbed, why couldn't she contact herself and Nalan Yanran?
Chu Yang initially thought that Yun Yun had fallen into the trap set by the Flower Sect and was being secretly harmed.
But now it seems that is not the case.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang looked at the higher-ups of the Flower Sect and said with a smile, "It seems that it was indeed a misunderstanding. I plan to take a walk around. I wonder if you all mind?"
Faced with Chu Yang, how could the experts of the Flower Sect dare to utter a word of dissent?
So Chu Yang left alone, while the experts of the Flower Sect politely welcomed Tang Huo'er into the mountain gate.
In front of a mountain peak deep within the Flower Sect, Chu Yang stood for a long time before his gaze finally settled on a cave halfway up the mountain.
With a flash, Chu Yang entered the cave and slowly walked towards its depths.
The cave passage was narrow, but when you reached the end, it suddenly opened up, and a stone chamber appeared before your eyes.
Looking at Yun Yun sitting cross-legged in the center of the stone chamber, Chu Yang frowned.
Yun Yun appeared to be perfectly normal, but the biggest problem was...
She's way too normal!
His breathing was even, and his complexion was rosy, yet he was not in a meditative state, as if he were asleep.
Chu Yang clearly did not conceal his presence, and the sound of his footsteps echoed throughout the cave, yet Yun Yun showed no reaction whatsoever!
At this moment, Yun Yun suddenly reminded Chu Yang of "vegetative state patients".
Or rather... a living dead whose physical body is intact, but whose soul has been annihilated! (End of Chapter)
Chapter 341 Yun Yun's Inner Demon? A Soul of Emperor Realm! The Mysterious Ancestor of Yin Valley!
Chu Yang withdrew his gaze from Yun Yun, then looked around the cave and found a tomb in a corner.
It's called a tomb, but it's really just a cave that was dug downwards, where the remains were buried, then reburied, and a tombstone was erected.
The stone tablet is engraved with a line of small characters: "Tomb of Hua Yu, the leader of the Hua Sect".
The once-proud and powerful woman of heaven, who had recently been dominating the Central Plains, ultimately could not escape the fate of turning into a handful of dust.
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. Since Hua Yu was dead, it meant that Yun Yun had inherited her fighting spirit.
However, Yun Yun's current situation is clearly very wrong. Her physical functions are normal, and her internal fighting spirit is abundant, but her soul aura is weak.
After a moment of contemplation, Chu Yang gently raised his hand and used the power of Wuwei Transformation combined with the power of [Tianque] to help Yun Yun correct her soul.
About half an hour later, Yun Yun slowly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with the vicissitudes of an old woman, and then a look of bewilderment appeared on her face.
When she saw Chu Yang, she didn't feel the joy of a long-awaited reunion. Instead, she looked numb and smiled bitterly, saying, "I didn't expect that this dream would still be related to you."
Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "This is not a dream."
Yun Yun said calmly, "You always say that, and I really can't understand why you've become my inner demon?"
Chu Yang frowned, knowing that something must have happened to Yun Yun to make her unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.
After staring at Yun Yun for a long time, Chu Yang suddenly laughed and said, "Feel the strength of your soul now!"
Yun Yun looked suspicious, then her pupils suddenly contracted, and her body even trembled uncontrollably.
Emperor Realm Soul!
Furthermore, Yun Yun had witnessed the souls of Emperor Realm beings in her dreams, and she discovered that her own soul power was even more powerful than that of ordinary Emperor Realm beings!
This has never happened in any of my previous dreams!
Because every time she was about to step into the next level, Chu Yang would act like a demon, blocking her path to the peak.
"This..." Yun Yun stared wide-eyed at Chu Yang, tentatively asking, "Is it really not a dream?"
Chu Yang shrugged and said, "Although I don't know what you've been through, your current soul strength must be related to the dream you mentioned."
After a long while, Yun Yun finally calmed down and realized that she had returned to reality. She couldn't help but sigh and recount her experiences over the past few days.
After parting ways with Chu Yang and Sun Wukong, Yun Yun traveled around Zhongzhou and eventually joined the Flower Sect, which only accepted female disciples.
Because of her considerable strength, she directly became an elder of the Flower Sect. The Flower Sect did not restrict her too much, and only asked her to take action when there were major events in the sect.
Yunyun then lived a carefree life amidst the flowers until a year ago when she accidentally discovered this cave and met Huayu.
Because she was delayed for a year in the Jia Ma Empire, Yun Yun did not arrive here two years before Hua Yu's death, as was the original storyline.
This resulted in Yun Yun finding Hua Yu already on the verge of death when no one was there to care for her.
Yun Yun cared for Hua Yu until her death, and Hua Yu, on her deathbed, revealed her peak Dou Zun cultivation and passed on all her Dou Qi to her.
Yun Yun's cultivation technique is the Origin Technique, which is even superior to ordinary Emperor-level techniques. Therefore, there is no need for Hua Yu to seal the battle qi that she passed on to Yun Yun after the transfer of power. Instead, the latter directly refines it.
However, it was precisely during this refining process that Yun Yun comprehended her own Dao, based on the unique characteristic of the Origin Technique having unlimited growth potential.
soul!
Her easygoing personality, as gentle as drifting clouds, led her to stumble upon the essence of the soul.
However, her soul power was not enough to withstand that powerful artistic conception, so she was passively drawn into one endless dream after another.
But in Chu Yang's view, it was less a dream and more a series of reincarnations.
With each reincarnation, Yun Yun's soul grows stronger. After hundreds and thousands of reincarnations, her soul power has long since crossed the threshold of the Emperor Realm.
It should have been a natural process for the soul to undergo a transformation, merging with the artistic conception, and emerging from its cocoon like a butterfly.
However, because Chu Yang became her inner demon in each reincarnation, Yun Yun was trapped in the cycle of reincarnation and could not escape.
"I..." Chu Yang was speechless for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Why would I become your inner demon?"
Before he rose to prominence, Yun Yun had always treated him well. There was no grudge between them, and they even had a debt of gratitude between them.
After Chu Yang rose to prominence, his repeated assistance to the Yunlan Sect deepened their bond. So why did he become Yun Yun's inner demon?
Yun Yun looked somewhat embarrassed, her pretty face slightly flushed, and she said shyly, "At first I didn't understand either, but then I figured it out..."
"Perhaps it's because your disciple is too powerful that I, as the sect leader, seem dispensable..."
Chu Yang suddenly realized.
So this is because Yunyun's pride is at play; her own powerful rise makes her, as the sect leader, feel increasingly insignificant.
Even now that he has left the Yunlan Sect and relinquished his position as sect leader, he still harbors resentment over this matter.
After all, the two were not master and disciple, and apart from their identities as sect leader and sect disciple, they didn't have much of a connection.
Therefore, after the great calamity of Yunlan Sect, whether it was Chu Yang's strong rise or his many plans for Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun felt grateful to Chu Yang, but at the same time, she also felt a little guilty and uneasy.
“Aunt Yun, when I joined the Yunlan Sect but was unwilling to become a disciple, you stood against all odds and kept me here.”
Chu Yang said nonchalantly, "So whether it's the protection or the inheritance for the next ten years, it all stems from this."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have died somewhere on the mainland long ago!"
Chu Yang thought for a moment, then said, "If you still can't get over this hurdle, then make yourself as strong as possible so that you can be of help to me when I need you in the future!"
Yun Yun was taken aback. "With your strength, there's almost nothing you can't solve on the continent. Why would you need someone else's help?"
Chu Yang said meaningfully, "There are heavens beyond heavens, and the Dou Qi Continent is just a corner of the world."
"There are heavens beyond heavens..." Yun Yun pondered Chu Yang's words, lost in thought.
Chu Yang continued, "During your soul's slumber, the Origin Technique continued to operate on its own, and your cultivation level is now vastly different from before."
"Take the time to adapt to the increase in strength, stabilize your soul realm, and then prepare to take over the Flower Sect!"
Yun Yun frowned. "I never intended to become the sect leader..."
The troubles and controversies surrounding the Yunlan Sect back then had already exhausted her. If it weren't for Chu Yang's sudden emergence, the Yunlan Sect would probably have ceased to exist long ago. Yun Yun originally planned to live a carefree life, but she didn't expect that she would take on the responsibility of the Flower Sect as soon as she was relieved of the burden of the Yunlan Sect.
"I plan to establish a dynasty in Zhongzhou, and I need the support of the Flower Sect," Chu Yang said softly.
