National Martial Arts in Pirates

"Yun Xiao, I want to ask you a question that may be rude." Yun Che looked at Yun Xiao and said seriously: "Do you usually meet Qimei in this way of private meetings?"

"Ah..." Yun Xiao was caught off guard by the question, his face showed embarrassment, and then he became sad again. He sighed and said: "You have also seen that the Tianxia family looks down on me at all, and Qimei is the only one in the world. The only princess of the clan is the most noble pearl of the entire elven clan. They felt that I was not worthy of Qimei at all. If Qimei was really with me, it would even ruin the reputation of their entire family. At first, they objected fiercely. But Qimei's temperament is also quite stubborn, and they later strictly prohibited contact with Qimei and me. It became increasingly difficult for Qimei and I to meet. In the past year, we only secretly met three times. Every time, we have to leave the city at least fifty miles away to avoid being discovered... In less than three months, it will be the centenary ceremony of the Little Demon Queen's reign. The twelve guardian families are all busy with this, and Seventh Sister and I have just arrived. I finally found an opportunity to meet each other, but I didn’t expect..."

Yun Che raised his hand to support his chin and said while thinking: "Besides the two of you, is there anyone else who knows about your going to see Qimei... or sees it?"

"No, definitely not." Yun Xiao shook his head firmly: "I definitely don't dare to let anyone know, because not only the Tianxia family, but even my own family doesn't think highly of me and Qimei at all, and even secretly Li Xiaoxiao, even if I don’t take care of myself, I still have to take care of Qimei. I will definitely not let anyone know. Qimei will definitely not tell anyone else. "

"You and Qimei were attacked, and the other party kept making complete cover-ups, and the target was extremely clear. Obviously, they were well prepared." Yun Che said slowly: "If I hadn't known in advance where you would meet, , you are not so fully prepared at all... Since you are so sure that only the two of you know about this matter, then the most likely possibility is... when you were transmitting a message to Qimei, someone nearby heard it. Just like Qi Sister, the message you gave her was heard by her sixth brother."

"Huh?" Yun Xiao was startled, and then shook his head harder: "This is even more impossible. I was in my own yard when I transmitted the message, so it shouldn't be heard by others. Even if it was heard secretly. Yeah, that can only be people from our Yun family... We, the Yun family, have never had any big grievances with the Tianxia family, and in the current low state, we are absolutely unwilling to offend any family. How could we do such a thing? . And although those three men in black all hide their mysterious skills, I can still easily recognize them if they are practicing our Yun family’s mysterious skills."

"..." Yun Che nodded, remained silent for a while, thoughtfully, and then said with a relaxed expression: "Maybe... Forget it, don't think about it now, the Tianxia family must be more concerned about it than us. There are many. Leave it to them to investigate."

"However, my bigger question is... Yun Xiao, although the Yun family is currently in serious decline, it was at least once prosperous and still belongs to the Twelve Guardian Family. And you are at least nominally the young head of the Yun family. , in terms of such family backgrounds and identities, you and Qimei are clearly matched, oh no! You should be one point higher than Qimei. Taking a step back, even if your father is not the head of the family, but an ordinary Elders, they wouldn’t oppose it so fiercely...it even escalated to the issue of family honor.”

Yun Xiao's face suddenly stiffened.

Yun Che glanced at Yun Xiao's expression and continued: "In addition, even your Yun family's attitude towards you is a bit too unusual. Just like the Yun Hao before, he was not only disrespectful to you, he was also full of words. It's ironic and humiliating, but judging from your appearance, you seem to be used to this kind of treatment... Regardless of your identity as the young head of the family, at least your grandfather is still the head of the Mu family. You shouldn't be in the Yun family at all. Being reduced to this situation...is there any hidden secret in this?"

Yun Xiao paused for a moment and lowered his head, with deep bitterness on his face.

Yun Che smiled apologetically: "I seem to have asked questions that I shouldn't have asked... I'm sorry, but don't take it to heart."

"No," Yun Xiao slowly shook his head. When he raised his head, his face was calm enough: "Anyone else would find it strange to see my usual situation. In fact, all kinds of rumors about me, Almost everyone in Demon King City knows that, Brother Yun, you saved my life and treated me as a friend. There is no need for me to hide anything from you. The reason why everyone dislikes me is... because I have been around since I was a child. When you grow up, in other people's words, you are just a 'picked-up bastard'."

Yun Che glanced sideways: "What do you mean?"

Yun Xiao laughed miserably: "The Yun family is proud of it, and the core ability that ranked first among the twelve guardian families in the past is the unique power of Xuangang. But the Xuangang mark can never light up on my arm. In my case, Even after Xuan Li reaches the Tianxuan realm, he still cannot awaken Xuan Gang."

"In the Yun family, as long as you are guided by the power of blood, you can light up the Xuangang mark on your arm at the age of five, and then based on the color of the Xuangang mark, you can judge your talent and whether you need to focus on cultivating it. After the Xuanli reaches the Tianxuan realm, , Xuangang will awaken and can be summoned from then on. This is the power of the Yun family’s bloodline. As long as there is the bloodline of the Yun family, there will definitely be the power of Xuangang... There is no exception."

"But I never did. And this clearly proves that I don't have the blood of the Yun family... In the understanding of the Yun family, the entire Demon Imperial City, and even the Illusory Demon Realm, this is ironclad proof. "

Yun Che: "..."

"The news that I don't have the Xuangang Seal was spread to everyone in the city when I was five years old. Later, I couldn't summon Xuangang in the Tianxuan realm, and it was even more publicized. That paragraph At that time, the entire Demon Emperor City was spreading rumors that I was not my parents' son... and the most serious thing was that when I was young, my parents brought me back from the Tianxuan Continent... Both the Demon Emperor and the little Demon Emperor died there. In the hands of people from Tianxuan Continent, the Demon Emperor's Seal and the Mirror of Samsara were also lost due to the invasion of Tianxuan Continent. Demon Emperor City has always hated Tianxuan Continent, and I, a wild man from Tianxuan Continent, No matter where you go, you will be looked down upon, scorned, even insulted and hated..."

Yun Xiao didn't say any more. Yun Che listened silently. He could feel how Yun Xiao had come through these years... Before he was sixteen years old, he had been ridiculed and scorned by others because of his disabled profound veins. Pass. But Yun Xiao was even more unbearable than him, and the things he endured were much heavier than him...

Because of this, he knew very well what Yun Xiao's state of mind must be these years... Both of them were teased by fate.

There is no reason for the Illusory Demon Realm not to hate Tianxuan Continent. How could Yun Xiao, a person who most likely belongs to Tianxuan Continent, be treated by the people here...even if he bears the title of the young head of the Yun family. And how could any of the dignified families in the world be willing to marry their only princess to such a person? It was indeed not just a matter of status, but really involved the family's reputation and dignity...

Perhaps, if it weren't for the Yun family, the matter of Yun Xiao's bloodline could have been concealed, but it was the Yun family... Xuan Gang was irrefutable evidence.

"Your parents...are they good to you?" Yun Che asked slowly.

"My parents are very good to me." Yun Xiao nodded lightly, with warmth flashing in his eyes: "Because of Xuan Gang, even I deeply doubted my own bloodline, but my parents said that I am theirs My biological son. In the face of overwhelming doubts, they never admitted it, and they have loved and cared for me since I was a child, never willing to let me suffer the slightest injustice. Otherwise, with the hatred of Demon Imperial City towards Tianxuan Continent, I might There’s no way he’s alive to this day.”

"So, for the sake of your parents, you practice hard and are willing to silently bear all criticism and unfair treatment without ever resisting?" Yun Che said.

Number Seven Under Heaven once said that Yun Xiao had not received many resources since he was a child. However, with his ordinary qualifications and lack of resources, he cultivated to the half-step of Hexuan at the age of twenty-two! This is already the highest achievement in the Seven Kingdoms of Tianxuan, even better than Feng Xiluo, who was once known as the number one young person in the Seven Kingdoms!

One can imagine how hard he has worked in cultivation over the years...or rather desperately.

"Yes." Yun Xiao nodded slightly and gritted his teeth slightly: "I am the grandson of the Demon King, the son of Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou... I will never embarrass them, let alone cause them trouble. In the future, if we are really in a difficult moment, I will use my strength to protect my parents even if I risk my life!"

Speaking of this, he noticed something strange in Yun Che's eyes. His expression froze and he said anxiously: "Brother Yun, will you also look down on me because of this...?"

"Of course not." Yun Che shook his head without any hesitation: "On the contrary, I admire you even more. Even... I should really be grateful to you."

"Ah? Thank me?" Yun Xiao was stunned.

"Haha," Yun Che smiled cheerfully: "Put your hand on Yun Xiao's shoulder. Yun Xiao, how about we become sworn brothers after meeting Senior Yun?"

"Ah...ahhhh?" Yun Xiao opened his mouth wide, with a look of disbelief on his face: "We are... sworn brothers? Me, me... me and... Brother Yun?"

"That's right." Yun Che smiled and said, "Okay, I suddenly said this, which is indeed a bit abrupt. If you don't want to, just forget it for now."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no!" Yun Xiao waved his hands quickly, stuttering in excitement: "This, this... Brother Yun is so powerful, and I... you have also seen and heard that I simply... I How can such a person deserve to be with Brother Yun..."

"So, you also think you are not worthy of Seventh Sister?" Yun Che interrupted him.

"I……"

"Don't belittle yourself." Yun Che patted his shoulder, his eyes firm and sincere: "You are worthy of being the seventh sister, worthy of being the young head of the Yun family, and even more worthy of being sworn brothers with me. In these years, many things have happened , you alone are carrying it silently. After we become sworn brothers, we will naturally have to face difficulties together. I will fight with you in everything. If you want to be with Qimei, I will help you work hard together. You If you want to protect your parents, I will protect them with you. If someone bullies you or your parents again... I will take back the old and new debts for you!"

Yun Xiao's eyes were turbulent, and his emotions were throbbing and could not calm down for a long time. As he grew up, he lived in the strange eyes of others every day. Although he seemed to have a distinguished status, not to mention the young masters of other families, even the servants of the Yun family were unwilling to get close to him. Yun Che's words and firm eyes undoubtedly had a huge impact on his soul. As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice became choked: "Brother Yun, I..."

Yun Che knew that it was the first day he and Yun Xiao met each other after all. Anyone else would find it hard to digest these words when he suddenly said these words. He smiled and said: "Take me to see Senior Yun first, and the rest , we’ll talk about it later.”
