Although Grandma was strong-willed and domineering, she was not oblivious to the weight of the situation. The schemes of the Demon Realm and the Three Ghost Emperors were already despairing enough, and now even the emperor of her own clan was involved.
It seemed they truly held my grandson Lian Yun in high regard! A flicker of malice and helplessness crossed Grandma's stunning face; after all, she did not possess imperial-level strength.
However, from Lian Yun's perspective today, it was a different story.
The Half Emperor regarded those below him as mere ants, so naturally, the emperors were even more indifferent. Although Emperor Yi seemed to treat him well, perhaps in his heart, he considered Lian Yun to be an expendable existence.
Moreover, all the current emperors, including that Azure Dragon, could be considered Ghost Bodies. Thus, the Eternal Emperor, Emperor Yi, and the Peerless Demon Master—the Three Great Emperors—conspired to determine what changes would occur when using the Yin-Yang Stage in the King's Realm.
If it weren't for his current state, perhaps the Three Great Emperors would have long ignored his existence.
Yet he had indeed risen strongly; now they suddenly thought they might find a way to restore their physical forms through him.
Therefore, in Yin Yang City, both the Eternal Emperor and Emperor Yi had granted him considerable conveniences, hoping to facilitate his rapid growth as a favor to him.
The corpses of his parents were a backup plan prepared by the Peerless Demon Master long ago. Now returning his parents' bodies and providing hints was meant to ease their relationship.
This way, they wouldn't end up in a situation where they would mutually destroy each other upon meeting.
Sending that arrogant Rugged Man was likely also a test of his attitude.
Many things suddenly became clear, but Lian Yun's heart was shrouded in an even greater shadow.
He could accept what had already happened because he knew that even if someone with the Yin-Yang Stage were in his place, they might face similar encounters. As for what kind of situation they would end up in, that depended on their personal character and style of action.
The focus of both the Demon Realm and the emperors of Huaxia was not on him as an individual but rather on the Yin-Yang Stage itself.
However, things had already begun. Now his parents were treated like commodities; what about in the future? Wouldn't his family also suffer unnecessary repercussions because of him? This was something Lian Yun could not endure.
"Is everyone beneath an emperor just an ant? Grandma, can an emperor simply raise a hand and treat those below as pieces on a chessboard? With a single move, everything becomes a pawn."
"With a single move, everything becomes a pawn..." Grandma trembled slightly at these words, repeating them softly. Her eyes sparkled with shock and delight.
A seemingly simple statement was not something just anyone could utter casually. It was like certain truths that everyone understood but most people could not articulate.
Only by experiencing and understanding to a certain extent can one express it in writing.
For Lian Yun, the only grandson, Grandma was very satisfied, but there was always a slight dissatisfaction—Lian Yun's character was too gentle, lacking any real fire.
It seemed that he could be tough at times, but that was not true dominance.
If the previous Lian Yun had the appearance of a King without the mindset of a King, then when he spoke these words, it represented that he truly possessed the demeanor of one who rules.
"What are your plans?" Grandma suddenly nodded, secretly pleased.
Lian Yun merged the two ice coffins together and stood in the middle, leaning against his parents behind him, looking up. His gaze seemed to drift far away as he softly asked, "Grandma, does Yun'er fight or not? Can Yun'er use all things as chess pieces?"
"Yes! However, you currently lack that kind of strength!" Grandma affirmed firmly before explaining the reality.
At this, Lian Yun seemed to suddenly come to his senses. He smiled slightly and turned to look at his parents' bodies again, then smiled faintly and said, "Father, Mother, then Yun'er will compete with them."
Before his words fell silent, Lian Yun's brows slightly raised. His originally androgynous handsome face suddenly took on a distinctly defined expression.
As he turned around, Lian Yun spoke to Grandma with a demeanor that seemed frail yet carried the air of a ruler: "Grandpa can be reborn as a Zombie because his soul scattered within his body? But my parents' souls have departed; even if they could be resurrected as corpses, they would only be like infants without memories or reason from their past lives."
Grandma nodded, looking seriously at Lian Yun but with an inexplicable trust as if she would agree to any decision he made.
In an instant, Yan seemed to separate from Lian Yun's body and appeared beside him. Lian Yun spoke in a deep voice: "This is Yan, one of my Three Golden Hairs. In a few days, he will head to the Demon Realm while two other avatars remain in Yin Yang City. I will take care of Grandpa while the Lin Clan migrates entirely to Yin Yang City and settles in Xianyang City."
Grandma shook her head without hesitation: "The migration of the entire clan is fine; however, if I'm not here, your grandpa might lose his sanity. I must stay."
Lian Yun walked behind Grandma and began to massage her shoulders gently. He said calmly: "That's fine, but without my consent, you are not allowed to take action at any time."
Grandma's brows furrowed slightly; her expression was somewhat strange.
Lian Yun's request was quite forceful; it was as if he expected her to obey him. This made Grandma feel somewhat displeased yet also brought her an unusual sense of joy.
It was as if Lian Yun had truly grown up and was no longer that child from years ago. Although his hands were gentle on her shoulders, they also carried the responsibility of a man.
After a moment of silence, Grandma said: "As they say, one should not avoid relatives when appointing the worthy. Are you really not going to let your uncle and cousins stay behind to help you?"
Grandma believed that Lian Yun's decision to relocate the Lin Clan was driven by a desire to prevent them from becoming her subordinates.
This was indeed part of Lian Yun's intention, but there was more to it. Lian Yun nodded and smiled lightly, saying, "In the Land of Huaxia, as long as the Peerless Demon Master does not take action personally, Yun'er has the confidence to compete."
"Sending the Lin Clan to Yin Yang City serves two purposes: first, to help the Lin Clan grow rapidly, and second, to prepare for future competition against the Emperors."
Here, the term "Emperor" referred to all the great Emperors.
Her words were bold and resounding, echoing through the air. However, there was no sound except for Grandma and the lifeless bodies of Lian Yun's parents who heard her.
Grandma nodded in acknowledgment of Lian Yun's decision. Yet she looked up and sighed, saying, "Come down!"
A sword descended, and Dongfang Yi landed beside Lian Yun, in front of Lin Feiyan's lifeless body, his expression filled with deep emotion and sorrow. He raised one hand slightly, wanting to touch the icy barrier but hesitating to make contact.
Within three breaths, Dongfang Yi turned to Grandma and bowed deeply in gratitude for her permission to meet Lin Feiyan. Then he summoned clouds beneath his feet, preparing to leave.
But at that moment, Lian Yun said, "Uncle Yi, wait a moment. Let’s have a duel before you go."
