Ye Yun's voice echoed in Yue Mingkong's ears.
Although his words sounded somewhat domineering, for some reason, Yue Mingkong felt a warm sensation in her heart.
"Yes!"
Yue Mingkong nodded heavily. She realized that Ye Yun didn't seem as annoying as she initially thought, just because she had preconceived notions about him.
But after observing him for a while, Ye Yun... didn't seem as detestable as she imagined.
Serving Ye Yun wasn't something Yue Mingkong found difficult to accept.
Beside Ye Yun's mother, Yun Yao, Yun Xi was always watching Ye Yun.
She was slightly displeased about Ye Yun having three personal maids.
After all, she knew very well what having personal maids implied, even if their master took full advantage of them, it wouldn't matter.
Looking at Ye Yun's handsome profile, Yun Xi's face suddenly flushed.
She suddenly recalled the happy times when she played with Ye Yun as a child.
However, ever since leaving the Ye Family, Yun Xi buried those memories deep in her heart and focused on her cultivation.
Due to her cultivation technique, Yun Xi gave off a cold and distant vibe, always appearing unapproachable.
Only when facing her closest people would Yun Xi show a slight change in emotion.
Of course, such emotional changes were very rare.
However, upon seeing Ye Yun again, she felt her previously cold heart become warm, and her heartbeat quickened.
This change was unexpected for Yun Xi, but it made her realize something.
She had different feelings for her cousin.
However, due to her cultivation technique, she had become accustomed to being aloof, making it impossible for her to express her feelings proactively.
Her delicate jade hand couldn't help but clutch her pure white garment.
This subtle action was noticed by Yun Yao.

Seeing Yun Xi's small gesture, Yun Yao's lips curled into a slight smile.
[It seems Yun Xi has feelings for Yun. Isn't it obvious she's getting jealous? Maybe I could matchmake the two of them.]
This thought popped into Yun Yao's mind.
She had considered this before and even mentioned it to Ye Yun in the past.
Unfortunately, when Ye Yun was younger, he was often bullied by his cousin Yun Xi, which made him somewhat fearful of her.
When Yun Yao brought up the matter, Ye Yun refused without hesitation, not even considering it.
Yun Yao thought about helping him change his mind, but in the end, nothing came of it.
She didn't want to use her status as a mother to bind Ye Yun.
But seeing Yun Xi's current state, Yun Yao felt there might be a chance.
Moreover, since Ye Yun's recent loss of control to demonic cultivation, he seemed to have changed, giving Yun Yao a glimmer of hope.
Yun Yao had already made up her mind to have a good talk with Yun Xi after the banquet.
To see what Yun Xi truly felt, and if possible, she wouldn't mind matchmaking the two.
From a distance, Ye Yun probably had no idea that his mother, Yun Yao, was already thinking about setting him up with his cousin Yun Xi.
If Ye Yun knew, he would probably burst out laughing.
Well done...
Yun Xi was beautiful and had a great figure, indeed outstanding, not losing out to Yue Mingkong, perhaps even surpassing her.
Yesterday, Ye Yun hadn't noticed, as he was focused on checking Li Luo's information and hadn't looked closely at his cousin.
But just now, while scanning for Fortune's Son, he accidentally discovered that although his cousin wasn't Fortune's Daughter, she was a very important character, destined to have many ties with Fortune's Son.
Her Fate Points were as high as six thousand.
Though not as much as Yue Mingkong, it was still a lot.

[Constitution]: Nine Yin Profound Body
[Techniques]: Moon Yin Profound Technique, Ice Soul Divine Herb, Ice Soul Sword Technique
[Treasure]: Profound Yin Sword (Sacred Artifact)

[Description]: The eldest miss of the Yun Family, one of the Seven Great Powers of the Immortal Domain, possesses the Nine Yin Profound Body, making her cultivation highly compatible with the Moon Yin Profound Technique. She was sent to the Palace of the Moon at a young age and is the true disciple of the Palace's master.
In the future, she will become involved in the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty's struggle for the throne, falling in love with Fortune's Son, the second prince Li Fei. The two are mutually in love.
After Li Fei ascends to the throne, he controls the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, becoming a mortal enemy of the Yun Family. Yun Xi is caught in the middle, trying to prevent a war between the two powers.
Ultimately, during the conflict between the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty and the Yun Family, she is accidentally injured and dies.
Yun Xi's death leaves Li Fei heartbroken, exacerbating the conflict between the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty and the Yun Family, leading to an endless war.
Upon learning about Yun Xi's future fate, Ye Yun's expression changed slightly.
He hadn't expected his cousin to meet such an end, with such high Fate Points, no wonder she wasn't Fortune's Daughter.
The final outcome was her untimely death.
Since he was here, he wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.
Ye Yun calmed his mind and asked the system with his consciousness.
[System, what's with this Affection Level? Why wasn't it there before?]
He hadn't noticed any Affection Level before. Did the system upgrade or something?
"Ding! Master, due to Xia He and others' status, loyalty is displayed. Yun Xi's status is different, she has no loyalty to the master, so Affection Level is displayed. Note: Affection Level is only shown for females.
An Affection Level below thirty means a chance encounter, thirty to sixty means familiar acquaintances.
Sixty to seventy indicates a fondness, allowing for further development.
Seventy to eighty is budding romance, eighty to eighty-five is mutual affection.
Eighty-five to ninety is a deep connection, ninety to ninety-five is unbreakable love, above ninety-five is undying devotion.
When characters with high Fate Points reach an Affection Level above eighty, each stage increase grants the master a corresponding reward."
After hearing the system's explanation, Ye Yun finally understood.
As for Yue Mingkong, her previous status was akin to a personal maid, so loyalty was displayed.
Ye Yun hadn't expected his cousin to have such a high Affection Level for him, reaching seventy points.
With a little effort, developing into a romantic relationship seemed... entirely possible.
Wait!
Does this mean... he could intercept Fortune's Son Li Fei now?
