A young boy, clad in a form-fitting martial robe with a pattern of a blue cloud embroidered on the shoulder, stood before them. This emblem was the mark of a disciple from the Blue Cloud Academy.
This is the symbol of the Blue Cloud Academy’s disciples!
“Yuan’er…”
Upon seeing the young boy, Sheng Wawei chuckled and said, “Why have you come back? Your father is fine…”
The boy approached Sheng Wawei and, seeing his father’s ashen complexion, said with a pang of heartache, “The Blue Cloud Pavilion has gone too far. That Mu Junli dared to lay a hand on you. Our Saint Dan Sect will never let this slide.”
“He has the Giant Sword Sect behind him, and we have the Saint Dan Sect. Why should we fear them?”
“Yuan’er…” Sheng Wawei tried to reason, “I have already reported this matter to the sect. I believe we will receive a response soon.”
“Your priority now is to focus on your cultivation at the Blue Cloud Academy. Once you reach the Heavenly Gang Realm, you can return to the sect.”
“All my life, I have hoped that you will one day become an elder of our Saint Dan Sect!”
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yuan hurriedly replied, “Father, rest assured. I am now ranked on the Blue Cloud Academy’s Cloud-Treading List, and I am not far from the Yuanfu Realm…”
“Well done, my son!”
Sheng Yuan smiled and said, “I heard that Sheng Shaoqing was defeated by a young man named Ye Wushuang?”
At the mention of Ye Wushuang, Sheng Wawei’s expression darkened, and he snorted, “It is this little brat who caused Sheng Shaoqing’s death.”
Although the sect knew that Sheng Shaoqing’s death was the work of Mu Junli, Sheng Wawei would surely face punishment. After all, Sheng Shaoqing was the beloved son of Master Shengxuan!
Sheng Yuan then laughed and said, “Father, don’t worry. I have received news that Ye Wushuang is a new student who entered the Blue Cloud Academy through this year’s assessment.”
“In nine days, it will be the time for all the disciples of the Blue Cloud Academy to report in.”
“By then, the academy will lead the new students to undergo a trial in the Lingyun Mountains. In previous years, these trials for new students were always recorded by senior students and academy mentors.”
“I have already applied to be one of the recorders. At that time, in the mountains… if Ye Wushuang is accidentally killed by a spirit beast, it would be a very normal occurrence.”
Upon hearing this, Sheng Wawei’s expression brightened, and he immediately said, “Good, good, good. But be careful not to be discovered, and take care of your own safety.”
“Don’t worry, Father,” Sheng Yuan said confidently. “Ye Wushuang seems not to have reached the Condensing Meridian Realm yet. I am already a ninth-level Condensing Meridian Realm expert. Killing him will be as easy as flipping my hand.”
“He Ye Wushuang deserves to die for causing you such a severe injury.”
The father and son exchanged a knowing smile.
…
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the fourth morning, Ye Wushuang opened the door of the alchemist’s chamber, stretched his arms, and looked a bit languid. However, the fatigue in his eyes was unmistakable.
“Master Ye.”
A guard immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, “Miss has instructed that once Master Ye finishes refining the pills, just let us know what you would like to eat. We have also prepared a resting room for you.”
Ye Wushuang then said, “Take me to the room and just prepare some food.”
“Yes.”
“Oh, by the way,” Ye Wushuang pointed to the alchemy chamber and said with a smile, “Tian You is inside. You don’t need to disturb him.”
“Understood.”
Led by the guard, Ye Wushuang arrived at the second floor of the Blue Cloud Pavilion and greeted his uncle and mother. He also checked on Xiao Yuan and Feifei before returning to his room.
After three days of explaining things to Tang Tianyou and refining pills, the mental exhaustion was significant. However, this kind of exhaustion was not entirely harmful.
The great mental strain actually further promoted the enhancement of Ye Wushuang’s cultivation. Within these three days, Ye Wushuang finally crossed the Refining Body Realm and reached the first level of the true Condensing Meridian Realm!
Upon entering the room, Ye Wushuang truly needed to rest. However, seeing the wooden tub in the bedroom with steam rising, Ye Wushuang smiled, took off his clothes, and sat in the tub.
Mu Qiqi had prepared it quite thoughtfully.
But just as Ye Wushuang sat in the tub, enjoying the comfort of the hot water, the door suddenly opened, and a graceful figure rushed in in two steps…
“Ye Wushuang, have all the pills been refined?”
Mu Qiqi suddenly pushed the door open, entered the room, and directly walked into the bedroom. Seeing Ye Wushuang sitting in the tub taking a bath, her pretty face turned red instantly, and she stood there, stunned.
