The two of them played and joked in the room, letting out all the thoughts in their hearts, and before they knew it, it was already sunset.

Shui Bing'er nestled in Yun Yi's arms and whispered to him, "Xiao Yi, since you have joined the Spirit Hall, you should have a mission with you when you came to Tianshui this time, right?"

Yun Yi looked at Shui Bing'er in his arms with a look of surprise on his face and said, "Well... But I don't think there is much hope of completing this mission."

Shui Bing'er nodded slightly and said, "In fact, the Spirit Hall has already tried to win over our five elemental academies, but only the Elephant Armor Academy has joined the Spirit Hall."

"I know this very well. Even if Tianshui belongs to your family, Bing'er, you still need to listen to the opinions of some people. How could those people easily agree to you joining the Spirit Hall?" Yun Yi said, gently playing with Shui Bing'er's long aqua blue hair in his hands.

"Yes, Tianshui's current status is not only due to the strength of our family, but also the nobles in the area near the Far North, as well as large and small families. They would not agree to Tianshui joining the Spirit Hall. The same is true for the other three elements. Only the Elephant Armor Academy is different. The Elephant Armor Sect has the vast majority of the say behind the scenes, so it can join the Spirit Hall."

After saying that, Shui Bing'er sighed and said, "In fact, as teachers and researchers of spirit theory, we hope that the academy can be merged into the Spirit Hall Academy. The Spirit Hall Academy has a profound foundation and its theoretical knowledge is second to none on the continent. The merger of our four elements into it will be of great benefit to teachers and students, but it will greatly damage the interests of those nobles and families."

"I understand all this, and you don't have to worry too much about it. My sister didn't tell me that I must complete this task, she just asked me to try my best. I've even used my beauty trap now. If I fail in this task, my sister won't have any complaints. At least I helped her to abduct a future Titled Douluo." Yun Yi gently stroked Shui Bing'er's pretty face, looked at her and chuckled, joking.

Shui Bing'er blushed and gave Yun Yi a look, her face showing worry, and said, "Now I am only worried that if the Spirit Hall goes to war with the two empires, Tianshui's years of hard work as a mother will be destroyed in an instant."

Yun Yi nodded slightly, "I have thought about this question, and I don't have any better solution. The imperial nobles and those big and small families will never let Tianshui join the Spirit Hall. I am afraid that many of the Tianshui team were from noble families. If it really doesn't work, I will ask my sister to send someone to pick you up. As for the others, I can't care too much. There is hope only when people are alive. What's the point of saving the so-called hard work if people are dead?"

Shui Bing'er nodded, the worry on her face still there. If a war really broke out, many people from Tianshui College would have to be recruited by the empire. Those nobles and families would certainly fight for their own interests. Many of her friends would also die in the war.

Seeing this, Yun Yi continued to comfort him, "Okay, don't think too much. Who can predict the future? All we can do is practice hard so that we can protect ourselves and those around us when war comes."

"When will you... leave?" Shui Bing'er looked up at Yun Yi with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"What? Do you want to chase me away?" Yun Yi looked at Shui Bing'er's insincerity and asked with a chuckle. He knew that this was not the question Shui Bing'er wanted to ask.

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er hugged Yun Yi even tighter and continued to hint at Yun Yi, blushing and saying, "No, I was just asking."

Yun Yi rubbed Shui Bing'er's head and chuckled, "How about Teacher Bing'er come back with me to the palace?"

Hearing Yun Yi's name, Shui Bing'er's face turned even redder. Although she looked moved, she was very conflicted. She had always thought about things very rationally. She thought that now was not a good time to leave with Yun Yi, but she had the urge to follow Yun Yi in her heart.

Seeing Shui Bing'er struggling, Yun Yi nodded and said, "It's fine to stay in Tianshui, then I'll stay with my teacher Bing'er for a few more days."

She hadn't made up her mind yet but heard Yun Yi agree so decisively. Shui Bing'er snorted lightly, turned her body away, and looked disappointed.

Seeing this, Yun Yi knew why Shui Bing'er was angry. Since Yun Yi could come secretly, he could naturally take Shui Bing'er away secretly.

Yun Yi gently hugged Shui Bing'er and whispered in her ear, "Then Bing'er, you don't have to pack your things. I will kidnap you and leave tomorrow."

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er turned around, glared at Yun Yi with a red face, and nodded slightly.

"Bing'er, have you thought it through? At least before the Spirit Hall starts the war, we can't show up easily again to prevent any unexpected complications." Yun Yi looked at Shui Bing'er and said seriously.

Shui Bing'er nodded and said, "Well... I understand. Although now is not the best time to leave, but if I go back with you, perhaps His Holiness the Pope will be able to show mercy to the people of Tianshui in the future for our sakes."

"How is uncle and aunt's cultivation?" Yun Yi asked with some concern.

Shui Binger rolled her eyes at Yun Yi and said, “Mother was able to become the dean of Tianshui College. Although she is not a Titled Douluo, she has the cultivation of Soul Douluo. Although mother cannot make all the decisions about Tianshui, if our family joins the Spirit Hall, even the Empire cannot do anything to us. However, Tianshui is mother’s hard work. It is unlikely that mother will give up Tianshui directly…”

"I understand all this. Don't worry. If possible, I will help our mother keep Tianshui." Yun Yi chuckled.

Shui Bing'er's face flushed, and she said softly and coquettishly, "Shameless, what do you mean by our mother? That's my mother."

Yun Yi smiled and leaned close to Shui Bing'er's cheek, saying, "It's all the same."

Looking at Yun Yi's appearance, Shui Bing'er seemed to have thought of something. She gently pinched Yun Yi's face and said, "I think His Holiness the Pope has become your mother too."

Yun Yi looked at Shui Bing'er with some surprise. Although Hu Liena and Bibi Dong were only master and disciple, the treatment they gave her was definitely better than that of their own daughter. Although Yun Yi usually called her sister, he still respected Bibi Dong very much in his heart. It was not wrong to call her mother-in-law. Of course, Yun Yi still had his own stance on Yu Xiaogang's matter.

Yun Yi smiled and said, "My Bing'er is so smart that she can't hide anything from you."

Shui Bing'er looked at Yun Yi and snorted with a hint of jealousy on her face. "You have reached Soul Saint so quickly, how can I not see it? Your sister must have cultivated you well. She spent so much money to cultivate you, but she didn't send someone to tie you up. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the fox that fought with us that year."

"Well... hehe..." Yun Yi smiled and tried to cover up the truth.

Shui Bing'er looked at Yun Yi's appearance and having missed him for many years, she didn't want to be too harsh on him. She just lay quietly in Yun Yi's arms and enjoyed this rare warmth.

That night, neither of them practiced their usual meditation, but just fell asleep quietly in each other's arms.

The next day, Yun Yi accompanied Shui Bing'er to pack up simply, left a letter in the room, and the two left quietly.

After leaving Tianshui, Shui Bing'er planned to summon her martial soul to continue her journey, but was stopped by Yun Yi.

"I want to stay with Bing'er. There's no need to rush. We can just start from the north and slowly head south." Yun Yi said softly.

Shui Bing'er was delighted but still asked, "Don't you still need to go back for special training?"

Yun Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Our cultivation will reach the end sooner or later, and this little bit of time is not a big deal. I would rather enjoy the few precious moments with you while I am still young."

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er smiled and nodded slightly at Yun Yi, but Shui Bing'er had already seen through Yun Yi's thoughts. "Then go to Tiandou City and visit Rongrong?" Shui Bing'er looked at Yun Yi with a smile.

Seeing this, Yun Yi could only nod his head honestly. It seemed that it was not a good thing for his sister to be too smart, and Shui Bing'er's wisdom was not only reflected in battle.

Then the two of them traveled along the way and headed south.

Seven days later, the two of them arrived at Tiandou City, located in the center of Tiandou, from the north of Tiandou.

When they arrived at Tiandou City, they smelled an unusual scent. Although Yun Yi had been away from Tiandou City for a long time, he had been in and out of the city quite often. The entry inspection into the city was extremely strict. It was only after Yun Yi took out the Prince's token from his soul guide that he was allowed to enter the city without inspection.

Shui Bing'er looked at Yun Yi and said, "Something big must have happened in Tiandou. Normally, this level of martial law would never appear in a prosperous city like Tiandou City."

Yun Yi was shocked when he heard this. According to the timeline of the original novel, the palace coup should have taken place after Tang San gathered the single-attribute clans to form the Tang Sect.

"It seems that the timeline has been completely disrupted, and many things have been brought forward." Yun Yi said secretly in his heart.

Yun Yi was thinking, his appearance changed a lot of things, but most of them revolved around Tang San, because most opportunities were inseparable from Tang San. Originally, Yun Yi thought that he had intercepted a lot of things about Tang San, and Tang San's line would be infinitely stretched, but now Tang San's line was shortened instead.

"Everything will turn into its opposite when it reaches its extreme. Did I put too much pressure on Tang San? Did I intercept too many things? Did Tang San have no choice but to do many things in advance?"

Thinking of this, Yun Yi looked at Shui Bing'er and said, "Let's settle down first. Bing'er, don't wander around during this period. I'll go to the Crown Prince to find out what happened."

Shui Bing'er nodded slightly. She also understood that now was not the time to travel.

The two were walking forward when suddenly, they met a team of about a hundred cavalrymen. They were actually galloping on the street at high speed. Although the cavalrymen were very fast, their riding skills were extremely superb, and there was also a bit of murderous aura on them.

Normally it is impossible to gallop on horseback in Tiandou as it is an imperial city. Seeing this scene, Yun Yi became more certain of his guess that it must be related to the palace coup.

Soon, the two arrived at a hotel. After Yun Yi settled Shui Bing'er, he did not rush to the Prince's Eastern Palace.

Yun Yi suddenly thought of a very important point, that is, at this point in time, Bibi Dong did not launch a soul hunting operation as in the original work to eradicate the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect.

Now, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has secretly stood on the side of the Spirit Hall.

Suddenly, Yun Yi figured everything out. With the help of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, it didn't seem unreasonable to advance the time of the palace coup.

Thinking of this, Yun Yi headed towards the Wuhun Temple in Tiandou City.

Not long after, Yun Yi came to Tiandou's Martial Spirit Temple with the Pope's Order in hand. Yun Yi was not polite and said casually, "Let Sarath come to see me."

"Yes, Elder." A black-robed cardinal said respectfully.

Soon, an old man with sharp eyes and a rather sinister appearance appeared in front of Yun Yi.

Salas looked at Yun Yi with surprise. Yun Yi looked the same as he did during the competition. Salas naturally remembered this Yun Hou, but he heard that this Yun Hou rarely showed up after that.

"I don't know whether I should call you Lord Yun or Elder." Sarath looked at Yun Yi in surprise and doubt.

Yun Yi said, "It's up to you. Anyway, this Pope's order can't be fake."

Sarath nodded and understood, and said, "I wonder what the elder is doing here?"

"I just left the palace not long ago. Can you tell me what the current situation of Tiandou is?" Yun Yi said lightly.

Saras looked enlightened and said, "It seems that the elder has been away from Tiandou for a long time. Xue Ye fell seriously ill not long ago. The Crown Prince of Tiandou and the Fourth Prince have been fighting fiercely recently. The Crown Prince's lineage has the support of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, while the Fourth Prince has the support of Blue Lightning and the Tang Sect."

Yun Yi understood after hearing this, and he connected many things together and everything became clear.

Xue Ye is seriously ill, so Xue Xing will naturally ask Dugu Bo to help Xue Ye with his medical treatment, just like in the original novel. Dugu Yan should have been done with Yu Tianheng in the past five years, so it is natural for Dugu Bo and Landian to be behind Xue Beng. Tang San, who has a master-disciple relationship with Yu Xiaogang, naturally formed the Tang Sect and stood behind the Fourth Prince. The Tang Sect also has a certain connection with the Haotian Sect, so at least Tang Hao is a useful person.

If the Fourth Prince could be carried up, it would obviously be of great benefit to the Tang Sect and Blue Lightning. Thinking of this, Yun Yi felt a chill in his heart.

If Yu Yuanzhen, Dugu Bo, and Tang Hao had stood together during the palace coup, it would be hard to say who would win. At least the power of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect was not enough.

Of course, if the two titles beside Qian Renxue were added, although he could defeat the opponent, once exposed, the throne would be gone, unless Qian Renxue had the ability to keep everyone present.

Once the news gets out, the nobles will not support Qian Renxue, who colluded with the Spirit Hall, to come to power.

Yun Yi felt bitter. He tried to win over the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to a certain extent in order to speed up the process and allow Qian Renxue to complete the palace coup. However, he overlooked one point. When Bibi Dong gave up her plan to destroy the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, she would also give up her attack on Lan Dian.

“Now we can only hope that this stubborn guy Tang Hao cuts off his own hands and feet and doesn’t interfere. If it’s just Yu Yuanzhen and Dugu Bo, they are still no match for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.” Yun Yi said secretly in his heart.

"What's wrong, Elder?" Salas looked at Yun Yi's appearance and asked Yun Yi softly.

Yun Yi came back to his senses, looked at Sarath and shook his head slightly. He had no intention of seeking Sarath's help. In front of the masters, a Soul Douluo like Sarath was just a rookie, so one more would not make any difference.

"Thank you very much." Yun Yi said to Sarath, and then left in a hurry. (End of this chapter)
