Chapter 1636
Shan Ling fell silent after she stopped her attacks .
Although the Desolate clan was inferior to the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins, Shaomang Xuan's standing in the Desolate clan was extraordinary . He was already halfway considered a member of the Desolate clan's upper echelons .
This was in no way inferior to the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins candidates who were vying to be crown designate . Back when Yi Yun met Shan Ling, he was extremely surprised that she was just a mere maidservant despite her talent .
It was fine if it was Shaomang Xuan having Shan Ling as a maidservant, that was considered normal .
However, Yi Yun was human!
At this moment, Shan Ling was already using the Star Transference Heaven Changing Book to change her looks . The present crowd did not know where Shan Ling came from . They found it baffling that a genius female Fey who had become a Fey Lord at such a young age would be willing to be a human Divine Lord's maidservant .
There was also Lin Xintong . Her bone age was frightening small, yet she had freakish combat strength . She had just fought four alone; if not for Yi Yun's instruction to halt the fight, she would have already slain one of them . Such talent made everyone present extremely embarrassed .
They were too useless . Compared to this human girl, it was like they had lived their lives in vain .
And for a human like Yi Yun, a female Fey Lord was willing to submit to him while a peerless genius was willing to be his woman . How could he be weak?
"Senior Rain, I will not be a freeloader in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor . I do need Her Highness Soft Clouds to provide me with some resources, but when used by me, they would be much more meaningful than rearing this motley crew . "
Yi Yun spoke without any qualms . It was practically smacking them in the face, but no one dared to retort him . The human girl's sword was still at the Fey Lord's neck and had yet been retracted!
The Fey Lord did not even dare move .
"Hahahaha! I was wondering who it was to be this arrogant!" At that moment, there was a long laughter .
Everyone looked over and saw a man dressed in a python robe . His eyes were sharp and he had the air of a king .
Upon seeing this man, everyone was delighted .
"Marquis Bi Lin!"
"It's Marquis Bi Lin!"
Marquis Bi Lin?
Yi Yun looked at the man and was unsure what his identity was . However, he was definitely someone of importance in the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins considering how he was conferred the title of marquis .
"Peak Fey Lord…"
Yi Yun sensed the man's cultivation level . Fey Lord cultivation levels naturally had its own power that matched human Divine Lords .
Humans were categorized by the number of Divine Lord Royal Seals they condensed .
As for Fey Lords, they were categorized by the number of times their Fey cores were tempered . Tempered Fey core, double-tempered Fey core, and triple-tempered Fey core corresponded to the Royal Sealed Divine Lord, double-sealed Divine Lord, and triple-sealed Divine Lords .
In fact, the number of temperings did not fully represent one's strength . Some Fey's single tempering of their Fey core was equivalent to the triple-tempering of others' Fey cores .
It was the same principle with Divine Lord Royal Seals . For instance, Yi Yun's Divine Lord Royal Seal alone was worth more than ten seals of others . The Heavenly Dao Royal Seal was just too terrifying . It was almost impossible for Yi Yun to fuse with another Heavenly Dao Royal Seal, much less three .
Under such a situation, being a double-sealed Divine Lord was Yi Yun's limit .
However, with the degree of tempering impossible to determine while identifying the number of tempering a Fey core had, it became the standard to determine a Fey Lord's strength .
At this moment, Marquis Bi Lin was deliberately showcasing his strength—it was none other than a triple-tempered Fey core!
This was a clear show of force . Typical Fey Lords would not flaunt the level of tempering of their Fey cores . Many would even deliberately keep it a secret .
"Is this an opening gambit?" Yi Yun chuckled . It was obviously meant for him .
However, a question puzzled him . He originally believed that the people who lived in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor were all her guest mercenaries . However, why was a marquis among them?
This person appeared to have a very unique standing .
Yi Yun noticed that Rain Numinous looked at Marquis Bi Lin with a hint of barely perceptible displeasure .
Rain Numinous actually does not like Marquis Bi Lin? As such, Yi Yun was even more certain that Marquis Bi Lin was not Jiang Xiaorou's guest mercenary . At the very least, he was not one under the same framework as others .
But under such circumstances, the Soft Clouds Mountain Manor's mercenaries seemed to respect him and even honor him . That seemed interesting .
"Why don't you give a self-introduction?" asked Yi Yun nonchalantly .
Marquis Bi Lin did not say a word, but his subordinate beside him said proudly, "My master is a Heaven Fey marquis . His elder sister, Madam Bi Yun, was married into the Blood King Palace and was given the title of Imperial Noble Consort! Marquis's noble title was conferred by the reigning Ruins Emperor!"
A few words from the subordinate made Yi Yun understand . So this fellow was the Blood King's brother-in-law . For the Blood King to add a concubine to his harem, it was nothing odd choosing a junior who was a few thousand years old . It was likely that Madam Bi Yun was young .
Interesting . The Blood King's queen was Xiaorou's mother . The Imperial Noble Consort was likely second to the queen .
Since Bi Yun could become Imperial Noble Consort while Bi Lin was conferred marquis, it likely meant that the Bi family was extremely terrifying . Perhaps a large part of the pressure Xiaorou's mother was facing came from the Bi family!
Marquis Bi Lin was not much older than Shaomang Xuan . With the aggression that came with his young age and his good background, how could a genius that viewed himself as superior be only willing to be marquis?
He probably wanted to cause stirs during court sessions with the emperor! Therefore, he temporarily lived in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor and built ties with Jiang Xiaorou's mercenaries . In name, he was helping Jiang Xiaorou fight for the title of crown designate, but who knew what he was really up to?
Now that Blood King only had Jiang Xiaorou as a child, if Madam Bi Yun were to bear a child, what would Marquis Bi Lin do?
This was likely why Rain Numinous did not like Marquis Bi Lin .
In just a simple introduction, Yi Yun had guessed almost everything about Marquis Bi Lin . The relationships among the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins royalty sure was complicated!
"I heard that my niece recently acknowledged a younger brother?" Marquis Bi Lin said languidly .
Yi Yun was momentarily taken aback before he jolted to his senses . Marquis Bi Lin was referring to Jiang Xiaorou as his niece . However, what kind of status did Jiang Xiaorou have? He was being too casual calling her his niece .
Furthermore, Jiang Xiaorou had only reunited with him for less than half a day . Yet, he had already learned of the news . It was obvious that he kept Jiang Xiaorou under close scrutiny .
"I heard that the out-of-the-blue brother's surname is Lin . Could it be you… Young Master Lin? Hahaha!" Marquis Bi Lin laughed out rapturously . "In terms of familial seniority, you should call me uncle . This Soft Clouds Mountain Manor has fallen under my direction in recent times . The resources are also handled by me . Why, are you questioning my management of Soft Clouds Mountain Manor?"
The second half of Marquis Bi Lin's sentence turned stern!
He had a triple-tempered Fey core and was already standing at the peak of Fey Lords . No matter how much of a genius Lin Xintong was, how could he mind it? How could he permit Yi Yun to wreak havoc in a territory he ruled over?
"So you are the useless housekeeper of Soft Clouds Mountain Manor!" Yi Yun roared with laughter . "It's no wonder the motley crew looked like they were licking boots the moment you appeared . So you are the one who has been handing out the resources? Are you using Her Highness Soft Clouds's resources to develop your own faction? When Madam Bi Yun produces offspring, you can use these connections to pull over these good-for-nothings and come under a new master, right? Hahaha!"
