Battle Through the Heavens: Beauties Abound Starting with Yunlan and Her Disciples

386: Section 386Having just broken through to the Saint Realm, the Dragon Emperor understood immediately. With a delicate shout, she tore fiercely at the void in front of her with her fair, small hand! ”Whoa!”

A space rift, even more stable and larger than before, instantly took shape.

The star chaser transformed into a streak of silver light, charging straight into it and disappearing within this void.

When the star chaser slowly revealed its form above a valley filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, it was already dusk.

The figures of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran had long been waiting in front of an elegant courtyard below.

Beside them stood two women, both of whom were of the highest caliber in terms of appearance and temperament.

The woman at the lead was dressed in simple yet elegant palace attire, her figure petite and exquisite, looking quite comparable to Yao Chan.

Yet, between her brows, there was a calmness and gentleness born of long-term authority, making one forget the mundane upon seeing her.

The young woman beside her wore gorgeous, embroidered robes, her figure graceful and curvaceous, her face stunning. Every smile and frown was filled with infinite charm, not losing out to Yun Yun in the slightest.

”Husband!” ”Senior Brother!”

Seeing the appearance of the star chaser, the beautiful eyes of both Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran lit up as they hurried forward to greet them.

”These two are the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect, Hua Yu, and the Acting Sect Leader, Hua Jin,” Yun Yun introduced them to everyone.

”The name of Young Master Yun has been like thunder in our ears for the past year,” Hua Jin said with a light, covered laugh.

Hua Jin covered her mouth and chuckled, her beautiful eyes boldly sweeping over Yun Xiancheng, making no effort to hide her curiosity and admiration.

”We had originally thought that when you graced us with your presence, we would certainly hold a grand welcome party, so that the little girls in the sect could all come and admire the demeanor of the legendary Young Dou Di.”

”Sect Leader Hua Jin is too kind,” Yun Xiancheng smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

”Given the current special circumstances, with the Hall of Souls spread across the Fighting Qi Continent, it is better to keep a low profile. Being too ostentatious might invite unnecessary trouble.”

”Young Master is right; it was my lack of foresight,” Hua Jin replied, nodding readily.

She stepped aside to clear the path, saying, ”Everyone has come from afar and must be tired. Please follow me; your accommodations have already been prepared.”

Once everyone was settled, Yun Xiancheng finally had the opportunity to speak with Yun Yun in private, and from her, he learned about the peculiar current state of the Flower Sect.

The Flower Sect was naturally still founded under the influence of a female Dou Di from the original story.

Because of his appearance, the trajectory of Yun Yun’s fate had changed drastically. She had never arrived at the Flower Sect by chance as she did in the original story, and naturally, she had not participated in the succession struggle for the Sect Leader position.

As for the current Flower Sect, the Sect Leader Hua Yu, while young and beautiful, could only barely maintain peace within this small territory.

Its sect power was no longer what it used to be. A few years ago, several elders openly pursued deviant paths, causing the Flower Sect to split, with each faction acting independently, feigning compliance while secretly opposing. The grand Flower Sect was, in reality, existing in name only.

Her goddaughter, Hua Jin, had no interest in this mess, and given the deep affection between them, she naturally would not engage in any power struggles.

It was precisely because of this that when the powerful Dou Zun expert Yun Yun arrived, they hit it off immediately and quickly became close sisters.

Just as the two were talking, the other side of the courtyard was a scene of lively activity.

As soon as Yao Chan saw Hua Yu, it was as if she had found a long-lost sister, and she grabbed her hand to pour out her grievances.

Their similarly petite figures created a natural sense of closeness between them.

They were sisters back in the day, surviving in the small Thunder Alliance under the rule of the Great Thunder Alliance, so naturally, their sisterly bond was deep.

Beside them, the tall and curvaceous Wind Idle was leisurely sipping aromatic tea. Hearing the conversation between the two ”little sisters,” she couldn’t help but chuckle.

”I say, you two, how old are you now? Why are you still acting like children, gathering together to gossip? Back in the day, I teased you two about your height quite often.”

Her words immediately drew an eye-roll from both Yao Chan and Hua Yu.

In another corner of the courtyard, Hua Jin was holding Yun Yun’s hand, whispering.

”Sister Yun, your husband is truly... hearing about him a hundred times is not as good as seeing him once.”

Her gaze drifted, seemingly unintentionally, toward Yun Xiancheng not far away, her tone filled with a mix of awe and playfulness.

”It’s one thing that his strength is unfathomable, but he actually has so many stunning beauties following him, all devoted to him. Sister, teach me quickly, how did you manage to capture such an outstanding man?”

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun’s pretty face flushed slightly, and she glared at her reproachfully.

”You girl, what nonsense are you spouting? The things between him and me cannot be explained in a few words.”

”Oh, Sister, don’t hold back on me.”

Hua Jin shook her arm relentlessly, acting like a spoiled child. ”I am currently feeling the stirrings of love. Look, a man like Young Master Yun probably cannot be found a second time in this world. If I miss out on him, wouldn’t I regret it for the rest of my life? Sister, please be kind and give me some pointers so I can have some hope.”

The Current Problems of the Flower Sect

Hua Jin’s eyes, shimmering with light, were locked tightly onto Yun Yun, the pleading tone in her voice growing even thicker, as if it could melt steel into soft fingers.

”Good sister, stop keeping me in suspense. All these beauties on the ship are devoted to Young Master Yun; there must be some incredible secret. My heart is now set on him, so please teach me a trick or two so I can learn, lest I miss this heaven-sent match and regret it forever.”

Yun Yun felt a bit dizzy from being shaken, and two charming blushes flew onto her fair cheeks. A secret? What kind of secret could she possibly have?

The bond between her and Yun Xiancheng was complex and profound—a peculiar experience that evolved from raising him when he was young, to the protection of a teacher and mother, and finally to the fate of a husband and wife.

Such things, let alone telling others, even when she recalled them herself, felt like a taste that twisted and turned, indescribable. How could she speak of such things!

She looked at Hua Jin’s bright eyes, which were filled with ”curiosity” and ”longing,” and felt a sense of helplessness in her heart.

This girl’s personality was always direct and bold; she would never give up until she achieved her goal. If she kept brushing her off, she probably wouldn’t have a moment of peace tonight.

”You.” Yun Yun, both annoyed and amused, gently tapped her forehead. Her beautiful eyes rolled, and a plan came to mind.

”Where would I have any secret? For this kind of thing, rather than asking me, the one involved, you might as well... go ask him yourself.”

As she spoke, she grabbed Hua Jin’s hand and, without explanation, gently pushed her toward Yun Xiancheng.

Hua Jin stumbled, losing her balance. With a delicate cry, her soft body collided perfectly into a warm and solid embrace.

A fresh and pleasant masculine scent, like clean fur exposed to bright sunshine, instantly enveloped her, leaving her mind blank for a moment.

”Sister Yun, you...” She instinctively wanted to struggle, but Yun Yun’s voice, carrying a hint of mischievous laughter, reached her ears.

”Go on. Our Chenger has the most gentle personality. Whenever it’s a request from a Beauty, he never knows how to refuse. If you sincerely ask him, he will surely agree.”

That simple? Hua Jin looked up in a daze, just in time to meet Yun Xiancheng’s smiling, deep eyes that seemed to contain the entire starry sky.

Her heart skipped a beat, and the speech she had prepared was instantly forgotten.

She could feel the arm wrapped around her waist, steady and powerful, carrying a sense of dominance, yet gentle in just the right way, without making her feel offended in the slightest.

She reached out as if possessed and grabbed the lapels of Yun Xiancheng’s chest.

From her fingertips came the sensation of firm, elastic muscles beneath the fabric. So strong.

Her heart seemed to skip a beat at this moment.

Although she couldn’t see through his specific Realm, the aura of deep, mountain-like stillness she felt from him had definitely surpassed the category of Dou Zun. Was this... was this the pressure of a Saint?

Looking at his face again, it was incredibly handsome, with skin like jade and eyes like bright stars. Between his brows was a touch of indifferent, otherworldly ease and nobility. He was clearly just sitting there, yet he seemed to be the absolute center of this world. Every move he made pulled at everyone’s gaze; once one caught a glimpse, they could never look away again.

Powerful, handsome, gentle, mysterious... all the words she could think of to describe a perfect man seemed insufficient to encompass even a fraction of the person before her.

Hua Jin admitted that her seemingly bold jokes from earlier seemed to be irretrievably becoming reality.

That heart, which had never fluttered for any man, was now beating wildly and uncontrollably for him. She seemed to have truly fallen for him. It wasn’t the kind of interest she felt at the beginning.

Yun Xiancheng felt the stiffness in the Beauty’s body in his arms and the increasingly rapid heartbeat, the smile on his lips growing even gentler.

He raised his hand, brushed past her silky hair, and gently stroked the back of her smooth head, his movements as soft as if he were soothing a startled little creature. ”If what the Acting Sect Leader said just now is true...”

He leaned down and whispered into her ear in a magnetic, slightly seductive voice that only the two of them could hear, ”Then, tonight...”

He didn’t finish his sentence, but the warm breath blowing against her earlobe, bringing waves of numbness and tremors, already made Hua Jin understand the implication.

Her cheeks flushed instantly, turning as red as the sunset clouds.

She buried her head deeper, almost pressing against his solid chest, and let out a soft ”Mn” in a voice as thin as a mosquito’s. Then, as if she had exhausted all her strength, with the bashfulness and shyness of a young girl, she nodded ever so slightly.

”Alright, alright, you two, stop flirting here as if no one else is around.” Yun Yun’s voice timely interrupted this ambiguous, romantic atmosphere.

She looked at her husband and Hua Jin with amusement. Although there was a trace of imperceptible jealousy in her heart, there was more relief and approval.

After all, it was a good thing for a sister as excellent and compatible as Hua Jin to join this big family. She cleared her throat and brought the topic back on track: ”Chenger, let’s talk business. Regarding the current situation of the Flower Sect, there are some things I must tell you in detail.”

Hearing the words ”talk business,” Hua Jin also recovered from her shyness. She reluctantly pulled away from Yun Xiancheng’s arms, but her hand was still being gently held by him. She composed herself, and a look of gravity appeared on her pretty face.

”Yes, Young Master Yun,” she added. ”This matter concerns the life and death of our Flower Sect, and might even... have an unpredictable impact on the entire layout of the Central Plains.” Yun Xiancheng nodded, signaling them to continue.

Yun Yun’s expression became serious, and she slowly began to speak, revealing a shocking secret: ”This matter dates back to ten or twenty years ago. At that time, there was an elder in the Flower Sect named Xing Yidao. She was originally under my foster mother, a senior with a gentle and uncompetitive personality. But for some reason, ever since she returned from an outing with severe injuries and went into seclusion to recover, her entire personality underwent a drastic change.”

”A change in personality?” Yun Xiancheng raised an eyebrow slightly. ”Yes.” Hua Jin took over the conversation, a flicker of complexity and disgust flashing in her eyes. ”She became... extremely radical and extreme. She began to publicly propagate an unheard-of theory within the sect, claiming that men are born with original sin and are the root of all suffering and conflict in this world. And our Flower Sect should have become a truly pure and flawless world dominated by women, rather than having dealings with men from the outside world like we do now.”

”She also created many terms we had never heard of,” Yun Yun added, her brows tightly knitted. ”For example... ’patriarchy,’ ’oppression,’ and the like, her words were extremely inflammatory. She said that for thousands of years, women have been enslaved and oppressed by male patriarchal ideology, and everything we have experienced is unjust. She called on all the sisters to wake up, rise up in resistance, and shatter this old world dominated by men.”

”Such rhetoric naturally caused huge controversy within the sect,” Hua Jin sighed. ”In the end, the conflict intensified, and the Flower Sect completely split because of it.” There was a hint of sorrow in Yun Yun’s voice. ”About three years ago, Xing Yidao led her group of fanatical followers to betray the Flower Sect, established another base in a nearby mountain range, and called themselves the New Flower Sect.”

”If it were just a split, that would be one thing.” A layer of frost covered Hua Jin’s pretty face, and her tone became cold. ”But after they left, the things they did were simply... insane, intolerable to gods and men!”

”In the areas they control, they implement a bloody system. They systematically hunt down and castrate newborn boys, and slaughter all adult men within their jurisdiction.”

”Of course, they don’t kill everyone.” Yun Yun’s voice was low and chilling. ”They also gave those men a ’chance to choose.’ If someone is willing to voluntarily castrate themselves and kill another male with their own hands, bringing his head to surrender, then this person can be accepted and become their servant.”

”Servant?” ”Yes, servant.” A mocking arc curled up at the corner of Hua Jin’s mouth. ”An existence even lower than a slave. And if these ’servants’ perform ’well’ enough, are ’loyal’ enough, and kill enough of their own kind, then they might even have the chance... to be awarded the title of ’Honorary Woman.’”

The air in the courtyard seemed to freeze at this moment. Even the women on the star chaser who had seen all kinds of storms and waves, upon hearing such shocking deeds, all showed looks of disbelief, anger, and disgust on their faces.

Yun Xiancheng’s expression, however, seemed a bit strange. He was not angry, nor was he shocked; he just listened quietly, his brows knitting tighter and tighter. Servant, Honorary Woman, patriarchy... these terms, these ideologies... they did not belong to this world.

This familiar, nauseating aura was like those most extreme and hysterical voices from the internet in his past life, crossing time and space to find a shell to be resurrected in on this strange Fighting Qi Continent.

Just at this moment, a long-lost voice, tinged with a bit of helplessness and gravity, rang in his mind. [Yun Xiancheng, this matter likely has something to do with you.] It was System Spirit.

[Correct.] System Spirit’s voice confirmed his guess. [The soul of that Flower Sect elder whose personality changed drastically had long since perished during that serious injury. Now, the one occupying her body is a modern female soul from your hometown, filled with obsession and radical thoughts.]

[She is also a transmigrator?] [You could say that.] System Spirit sighed. [In a sense, the reason she was able to come to this world is also because your arrival broke some barriers between the two worlds, creating a tiny ripple of causality. She can be said to be an evil fruit borne of the cause that is you. Therefore, I hope you can... solve this mess.]

[You don’t need to tell me; I would have done so anyway.] Yun Xiancheng’s voice responded calmly in the Sea of Consciousness.

He slowly raised his head. In those eyes that were originally as gentle as jade, ten thousand years of ice seemed to be condensing at this moment, and an invisible, heart-palpitating killing intent soared into the sky!

”This ideology,” he said, enunciating every word, his voice not loud but clearly reaching the ears of everyone present, ”is the cancer of civilization.”

”It acts in the name of liberation while inciting hatred and tearing apart groups; it uses ’equality’ as a banner while advocating extreme selfishness and double standards. What it castrates is not only the male body but the masculine blood and pioneering spirit of the entire group.”

”Once allowed to run rampant, it will only bring about moral decay, the collapse of the rule of law, and... the self-destruction of the entire civilization.” ”This tumor must be uprooted and completely exterminated before it spreads.”

He stood up, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and finally landed on Hua Yu, his tone calm yet authoritative. ”Sect Leader Hua, I will take care of this matter.”

481 Purifying the Cancer of Civilization. The night was as dark as ink, and a scarlet blood moon hung high in the sky, casting an ominous halo over this already dead and silent mountain range. Yun Xiancheng stood alone, silently, on the peak of a mountain.

Standing with his hands behind his back, his white clothes rustling in the night wind, he calmly looked down at the vast land below that had been eroded by extraordinary thoughts. His soul power at the level of a Demisaint spread quietly like an invisible tide, completely enveloping the entire territory of the ”New Flower Sect.” Under the probing of this power, all the sins and filth were nowhere to hide, just like on a radar map.
