Chapter 1396: Chapter 685: The Unspoken Purpose Chapter 1396: Chapter 685: The Unspoken Purpose But as the leader of the Yun Family, how should one begin to speak of such matters?
Those in high positions always think that by suppressing panic and confusion, and exuding confidence, they can inspire everyone around them.
However, the hearts of the Yun Clan members were unusually sensitive. Perhaps they too did not know which path was the right one, but as long as someone was willing to lead the way, they would blindly follow.
This time, however, was different. Yun Xiu did not know what the scene of drifting through the void was like, but she could judge from the complexion of the group of clansmen.
Each sudden void storm could potentially shatter the Spirit Realm, so they had to conserve the most precious Realm Heart energy.
Thus, in the hidden realm, there would be no light, likely countless days and nights where one could not see their fingers before their face.
They hid in the crevices devoid of light, recording time in the most primitive of ways,
Hoping for the day they could return to Xiehe.
Some went mad from the solitude, some died in the prolonged darkness,
But most of the clansmen endured, completed their journey of drifting in the Spirit Realm, and made it to the day they returned to Longyuan.
But before they could even breathe the fresh air of Nameless Mountain, before the dry Sea of Qi in their elixir fields could be filled with the lively Primary Qi of the Great Thousand World, the attack by the king's patrol arrived.
Though they had returned ashore, they still had to hide within the lightless hidden realm. This pain was as cruel as placing a jug of water before a traveler lost in the desert and not allowing them to drink.
Perhaps when Yun Xiu accepted the responsibility passed to her by Yun Ji, she didn't understand what it entailed, but seeing the numbness and confusion hidden in the depths of the clansmen's eyes, she seemed to comprehend.
What these clansmen needed was hope.
Because their behavior too closely resembled the defeated dogs from a lost bloodline, and the Yun Clan could no longer withstand failure.
Yun Xiu gathered her spirits, her crisp and clear voice like a beam of light, illuminating the cave on Nameless Mountain and capturing all the clansmen's attention.
“The Dutian Heavenly King's patrols are not targeting the Yun Family, you all will be the witnesses to the resurgence of the Yun Clan, there is no need to fear nor be confused!”
“Can we really do it?”
“We can!”
Yun Xiu's attitude was resolute, and with a touch of Illusion Technique aided by her Charming Eyes, she successfully soothed the despondent atmosphere of the eastern side of Nameless Mountain.
But that was far from enough; she knew what the clansmen were most concerned about.
Perhaps those in positions of power all suffer from a penchant to monopolize information, even from their kin, not wanting to lay everything out.
They always think that the subordinates can neither assess things rationally nor comprehend and accept them, better to just numbly follow orders.
However, Yun Xiu always believed that the real way to improve efficiency was through communication.
Just like in business, the boss needs to know not only what the managers are thinking, but also what the workers think.
Only when everyone's goals align perfectly can the business thrive.
With no other management experience previously, Yun Xiu could only treat these clansmen the way she understood business.
And the first premise of communication is the need for sincerity and… skill.
“You are not a separated bloodline; Longyuan is not a country on the verge of extinction.”
Yun Xiu earnestly said, “The clan leader and elders have found a method to rapidly replenish Realm Heart energy and are planning a second void drift. But what's different this time is, they've tasked me with leading the clansmen who have the best chance of reviving the Yun Clan.”
“You all are already at the pinnacle of Mortal Realm's transformation, such a brilliant time should not be wasted drifting in the void! You are very important to the future of the Yun Clan!”
The previously lifeless cave seemed to be injected with a bit of vitality, those Yun Clan disciples who had been numb like the dead suddenly began to stir.
They looked at each other, turning their heads looking around, after a silent and tacit election, a young man hesitantly asked Yun Xiu: “What should we do?”
“Believe in yourselves and persevere.”
Yun Xiu seriously told everyone, “The time ahead will be very tough, what you need to do now is rest well.”
“I have a request.”
It was still that young man, after some struggle, he spoke, “Could I… could I see the drifting of Longyuan?”
Observing the slightly more relaxed expressions of the clansmen in the cave, Yun Xiu understood that their numbness wasn't just due to confusion about the future, but also due to guilt and disappointment in their own inability.
These were the most endearing clansmen and they deserved to witness every key moment of resurgence.
The usually non-combative Yun Xiu suddenly felt a surge of fighting spirit; she wanted to take some young men into Longyuan to see the basis for the Yun Clan's revival.
In the Spirit Realm of Longyuan,
After an initial severe blow, the three Yun Clan elders finally adjusted their mindset, but it was ultimately too late.
With Yun Hong no longer handling the Mysterious Jade Seal Sky Ruler, Yun Zhe and Yun Xiang lacked the means to attack Ning Bufu. Even with two Divine Artifacts in hand, they were hard-pressed, and shielding the severely injured Yun Hong only hampered them further.
Worse still, as their commotion increased, treasure-hunters from Chengzhou and elite troops from the king's patrol were all converging on this location.
At this critical moment, the Ling Bi of the hidden realm was gnawed apart by the ferocious ghosts of the Ghost King's golden plate, and the teleportation formation of the hidden realm transferred all Yun Clan people onto a plain corroded with corpse poison, endless in sight.
The fierce shouts of battle startled Cao Ziqi. This Cao Family disciple had not expected there to be so many Yun Clan people hidden within Longyuan.
He hurriedly activated his Crimson Divine Armor, retracted the golden plate, but before he could retreat a few steps, several fierce Yun Family warriors from the Fierce Realm pounced to attack.
