Ye Yun, riding in the Kylin Carriage, finally arrived at Ye Changkong's palace.
Looking around at the ethereal Immortal Mountains and the abundance of rare beasts, far more than back home, and even the density of Immortal Spirit Qi surpassing his own place, Ye Yun couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Truly, this was befitting of the Ye Clan's leader.
Around the palace, there were numerous family guards present, including Saints and even more powerful beings. No matter who you were, upon entering this area, you had to declare your identity, or face execution without mercy. This rule had always been in place.
Of course, Ye Yun didn't need to report his presence. The Kylin Carriage he rode was enough to signify his identity. Throughout the Immortal Domain, only Ye Yun had a carriage pulled by four Kylins of different attributes. It was unique, without any equal.
Thus, with this Kylin Carriage, no one dared to block Ye Yun's path. The four Kylins, having been here before, headed directly to the parking spot—a massive terrace that could easily accommodate a hundred Kylin Carriages.
Whoosh!
The Kylin Carriage came to a steady stop on the terrace, and Ye Yun inside felt no vibration at all.
"Young Master, we have arrived," Xia He's gentle voice sounded.
Then, surrounded by Xia He and Qiu Lan, Ye Yun stepped down from the Kylin Carriage. What met his eyes was a long staircase, at least several hundred steps, leading up to the palace.
In truth, Ye Yun was seeing such a grand scene for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
"Let's go."
The three of them ascended the stone steps. For cultivators, these steps were nothing, but for an ordinary person, climbing them would be quite the challenge.
Before long, the trio finally crossed the long staircase and arrived in front of the palace. Outside the palace stood a large number of soldiers, each clad in armor, holding long spears, exuding a formidable aura.

These were the soldiers trained by the Ye Family, all of whom were cultivators. However, their cultivation levels were generally not high, with most in the Physical Body Realm and a few in the Spiritual Consciousness Realm. The captains among them might be of a higher level.
Not everyone in the Immortal Domain was a cultivator; most were ordinary people.
Ye Yun turned to Xia He and Qiu Lan, instructing them, "Alright, you two wait here for me."
Upon hearing this, Xia He and Qiu Lan exchanged a glance and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, Young Master." x2
Their loyalty was absolute, and they would never defy any of Ye Yun's orders. Even if Ye Yun asked them to risk their lives, they would not hesitate.
After giving his instructions, Ye Yun walked alone along the path to the main hall. The soldiers on either side of the path slightly bowed their heads in a gesture of respect, knowing this was their Young Master, the future Clan Leader, deserving of their utmost respect.
Ye Yun smoothly entered the grand hall, which was resplendent and luxurious. Various Immortal Stones, carved and polished, were embedded in the walls, looking incredibly beautiful.
Upon entering the hall, the most eye-catching feature was naturally the high seat at the far end, symbolizing the position of the Ye Family's Clan Leader. Sitting there was undoubtedly the current Clan Leader, Ye Changkong.
Ye Yun finally saw the father he only knew from memories, Ye Changkong. With a square face, stern expression, and sharp eyes that commanded respect without anger, he wore a black embroidered robe exuding nobility. Beside him lay a sword, one Ye Changkong used in the past. However, having reached his current level of cultivation, Ye Changkong rarely used it anymore.
Upon seeing Ye Yun, Ye Changkong's originally stern expression softened, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Yun, you're here."
His son had been in a state of Losing Control to Demonic Cultivation, not waking up for a long time. Now that he was finally awake, Ye Changkong was naturally excited. Although his son had been somewhat reckless and arrogant in the past, he was still his son, with impressive cultivation talent, beloved by the family, and with limitless potential.
Having only one son, Ye Changkong naturally doted on him. He hoped to give Ye Yun the best of everything. He never imagined that his exceptionally talented son would succumb to a Heart Demon. Despite having the Supreme Immortal Body, which should have ensured rapid progress in cultivation without the risk of a Heart Demon, his son still fell victim to it. This left Ye Changkong puzzled, only discovering the reason after investigation.
Ye Yun crossed his arms and said loudly, "Father, I'm fine now. My body has fully recovered."
Upon confirming that Ye Yun was indeed alright, Ye Changkong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good! Hahaha!"
Losing Control to Heart Demon was a very dangerous condition, potentially affecting one's entire future cultivation. But with Ye Yun not waking up before, Ye Changkong couldn't determine what to do next. Now that his son was awake and back to normal, he could finally relax.
"Yun! Yun! Has my Yun come?"
At this moment, an urgent voice called from outside the hall. Soon, a familiar figure entered.
Ye Yun recognized the voice immediately.
"Mother, I'm here and fully recovered."
After speaking, Ye Yun respectfully bowed to Yun Yao. The next moment, he found himself enveloped in a warm embrace.
"Yun, my son is finally alright."
From her voice, it was clear Yun Yao was overjoyed. Since Ye Yun's Losing Control to Demonic Cultivation, Yun Yao had been deeply saddened, even blaming Ye Changkong for not taking good care of Ye Yun, leading to this situation.
Faced with his wife's blame, Ye Changkong couldn't say much, only sending people to investigate. The investigation revealed a surprising truth: it was all due to a certain person.
Ye Yun, finally able to breathe, quickly exclaimed, "Mother, a little lighter, I can hardly breathe!"
Hearing this, Yun Yao realized she had been too excited and hugged too tightly, nearly suffocating Ye Yun. She immediately loosened her grip, checking Ye Yun over, worried he might still have any issues.
