Chapter 191 Departure
After listening to Yun Shan's words, Yun Yun bit her lip, her hesitation evident. However, reason prevailed in the end, and she said to Xiao Feng, "Since Young Master Xiao has said so, Yun Yun naturally agrees."
After saying that, he turned to look at the clouds and mountains in front of him and said softly, "Teacher, don't worry."
Seeing this, Yunshan didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
"Sect Master Yunyun, please sit down and talk," Xiao Feng said, gesturing to the chair beside him. As for Ya Fei, who had been sitting next to him earlier, she had already left when Jia Xingtian came. She was very smart and knew what she should and shouldn't do; that was Xiao Feng's assessment of her.
After the two sat down, neither spoke first, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward. Sensing this change, Xiao Feng took the initiative to ask, "May I ask how old Sect Master Yunyun is?"
"Well, I'm afraid I can't tell you the truth about this." Yun Yun frowned. Although her expression didn't change much, she was still somewhat displeased, and her opinion of Xiao Feng dropped a bit. For a woman, age is an extremely private matter, and someone like Xiao Feng who inquired about her age on their first meeting was, in her eyes, undoubtedly a playboy.
Seeing Yun Yun's reaction, Xiao Feng realized he had been a bit too hasty and quickly tried to make amends, saying, "It's alright, it's alright. I was indeed a bit rash. I hope Sect Master Yun Yun will forgive me."
"Young Master Xiao is too kind. You can just call me Yun Yun." Perhaps because Xiao Feng's way of addressing her was a little awkward, Yun Yun took the initiative to speak.
"Alright, then Yunyun, you don't need to call me 'Young Master' anymore, just call me Xiao Feng."
"Xiao Feng?" Upon hearing Xiao Feng's full name for the first time, Yun Yun murmured to herself, seemingly wondering if she had ever heard of this name before.
"Hmm." Hearing Yun Yun's words, Xiao Feng thought she was calling him, so he subconsciously answered. Suddenly, he realized that wasn't the case, but it was too late.
Xiao Feng's response also brought Yun Yun out of her thoughts. Yun Yun immediately realized that her actions were somewhat inappropriate, and quickly changed the subject: "Xiao, Xiao Feng, where are you from? And why did you come to the Jia Ma Empire?"
Yun Yun knew very well that Xiao Feng could not be a member of the Jia Ma Empire. How much power would it take to have a Dou Zong under one's command? The Jia Ma Empire didn't even have a single Dou Zong. Therefore, it was clear that Xiao Feng could not possibly be a member of the Jia Ma Empire.
In addition, it also ruled out the possibility that Xiao Feng was a powerful figure from one of the nearby empires. After all, they should have heard of such a family and force that could control a Dou Zong level expert. However, there really was no Xiao family or force among the nearby empires.
"Why did I come to the Jia Ma Empire? This is the second time I've answered this question. My reason for coming to the Jia Ma Empire was just a coincidence. I was just here for sightseeing, and I didn't have any other purpose." Xiao Feng answered Yun Yun's question very calmly.
Upon hearing Xiao Feng's words, Yun Yun did not answer. Seeing this, Xiao Feng then said, "Yun Yun, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask it. If you feel that there are some questions, then you don't need to answer. May I ask if you have ever been married? And is there anyone you have a favorite?"
"This..." Only now did Yun Yun understand what Xiao Feng wanted to ask. At first, she didn't think there was anything difficult to ask, after all, they had only just met and shouldn't do anything inappropriate. But when she heard Xiao Feng's question, she realized that she had been too optimistic. Xiao Feng was someone who didn't play by the rules at all.
After a moment's hesitation, Yun Yun finally chose to answer Xiao Feng's question, "Yun Yun is not married, nor does she have anyone she likes." As if discussing her most private matter, a blush inevitably appeared on Yun Yun's face.
Actually, Xiao Feng's question wasn't too blatant. In his previous world, in that era, it wouldn't have been a big deal. But in this world, Xiao Feng's words seemed rather inappropriate.
Especially since this matter concerns a girl's privacy, and Xiao Feng and Yun Yun had only met for the first time, Xiao Feng's words naturally caught Yun Yun off guard.
Seemingly worried that Xiao Feng would say something shocking again, Yun Yun suppressed all her thoughts when she saw him about to speak again, and then asked first, "May I ask if the Dou Zong realm expert from before was real? Since you are just here for sightseeing, why did you order your subordinates to make such a grand appearance? This seems to contradict your original intention, Xiao Feng."
"As for your first question, he could say it's true or he could say it's false. As for the specifics, I naturally can't explain them to you right now. And your second question is even more of a worrying one. It's an undeniable fact that I'm here just for sightseeing. As for the other person, it's because he's been looking for me everywhere and doesn't understand my thoughts, which naturally led to this situation."
Yun Yun gave Xiao Feng a deep look and said, "I believe you."
This wasn't her deceiving Xiao Feng; she genuinely chose to believe him. After all, Xiao Feng had no reason to deceive her. Putting aside everything else, there was nothing the Jia Ma Empire couldn't obtain with Xiao Feng's mysterious Dou Zong subordinate. He could even play a decisive role in the fate of the entire Jia Ma Empire. If Xiao Feng truly had any ulterior motives, why would he do this?
To avoid an awkward atmosphere, the two continued chatting for a long time, covering a wide range of topics, from major national and family affairs to various rumors circulating in the streets.
After a long while, Yun Yun finally decided to leave. She stood up and said to Xiao Feng, "Young Master Xiao Feng, as the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, I still have many matters to attend to within the sect, so I will take my leave now. If you have time, Yunlan Sect welcomes your visit, and we will certainly give you a warm welcome!"
After exchanging pleasantries, Yun Yun left.
He stared intently at Yun Yun's retreating figure until she left the main hall, only then reluctantly turning his gaze away.
Both Yun Yun and Xiao Feng were among the most prominent people in the entire hall, so Xiao Feng's performance naturally did not escape the observation of those who were interested.
Adding to the previous mention of Ya Fei, some people seemed to have discovered something, and a knowing smile appeared on their faces.
