Seeing Ye Wushuang’s puzzled expression, Xiao Yuan finally explained, “Chu Qingcheng was an orphan from a young age. She was adopted and brought back by an elder of the Chu clan. As she grew up, her talent in cultivation became evident, earning her the admiration of the Chu clan’s powerful figures.”
“After entering the Qingyun Academy, she studied array techniques and, within just three years, became a first-class spiritual array master. Because of this, many families within the Qingyun Academy, as well as other clans in the capital, have been trying to recruit her into their ranks, either openly or covertly.”
“Since Chu Qingcheng is not of the Chu clan’s bloodline, the Chu clan is worried that she might grow up to become a weapon in the hands of other powerful families. Therefore…” Xiao Yuan’s voice trailed off with a bitter smile, “the Chu clan has decided that once Chu Qingcheng reaches the Yuanfu realm, she will be married to Chu Tian Shen.”
So that’s how it is!
Xiao Yuan then looked at Ye Wushuang and asked, “Do you know Chu Tian Shen?”
Ye Wushuang shook her head.
With a tone of admiration, Xiao Yuan said, “He is truly a god!”
Seeing Xiao Yuan’s expression, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh.
“Don’t laugh,” Xiao Yuan quickly added, “I’m serious. He was extraordinary from the moment he was born. Before he was ten, he awakened his bloodline power. Now, at just nineteen, he has already reached the Yuanfu realm.”
“At the Tianyuan Academy of Qingyun, he is among the top students. Back when I had just entered the martial path, I witnessed his prowess in battle.”
“At that time, he was still in the early stage of the Condensation Meridian realm. With just one punch, he severely injured four other talented individuals of the same realm from the Qin, Shang, Liu, and Xiao clans who were on par with him.”
As he spoke, Xiao Yuan couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
That scene, though long past, was still etched in his memory.
It had left an indelible impression on him.
Xiao Yuan then continued, “At that moment, I felt that no one in the Qingyun Empire could match him. Until now, I’ve met you.”
Seeing Ye Wushuang smiling at him, Xiao Yuan quickly added, “But don’t get too complacent. You’ve only just started cultivating this year, and you still have a gap compared to him.”
Ye Wushuang walked with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. In a few months… he will be the one with the gap compared to me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qing Chengtian arrived, beaming with joy, “Xueqi is fine now! That Fuling Ointment is truly miraculous!”
“As long as she’s fine,” Ye Wushuang nodded.
Xiao Yuan continued the previous topic, “Wushuang, actually, if you want to make the Chu clan unhappy, you could…”
“What do you mean?”
Xiao Yuan coughed and said, “You could… sleep with Chu Qingcheng to annoy those people from the Chu clan!”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s expression became strange.
“Xiao Yuan, I didn’t expect you to be so mischievous. You always seem so stern and serious, but inside, you’re quite the troublemaker.”
Embarrassed by Ye Wushuang’s words, Xiao Yuan’s usually stern face turned red. He coughed and said, “I think this is something you should do!”
“You…”
The three of them were walking towards the residential area when suddenly, two figures appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Seeing the man and woman, Qing Chengtian and Xiao Yuan quickly bowed.
They were the Inner Court Elders, Shangguan Rong and Bu Chenfeng.
“Ye Wushuang, come with us!” Shangguan Rong said irritably.
“Um, where to?”
“Where do you think?” Without another word, Shangguan Rong grabbed Ye Wushuang’s arm and in a few flashes, they disappeared.
In a short while, the three figures appeared in a valley.
In the valley, Li Changqing was still practicing a sword technique.
“Uncle Changqing, we’ve brought the person!” Shangguan Rong said irritably.
“Hmm, good.”
Li Changqing stopped his practice and looked at Ye Wushuang with a stern expression, “You little brat, I, the Dean, ordered you to reflect on your actions in the Qingliao Tower, yet you keep refusing me?”
“I sent Shangguan Rong and Bu Chenfeng to your Ye Mansion to bring you back, and you actually dared to let your servant attack them?”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang coughed and said, “I was just… too busy with things and didn’t have time to…”
Too busy?
Upon hearing this, Li Changqing raised his sword, but seeing Ye Wushuang’s calm expression, he slowly lowered it.
“Uncle Changqing…” Seeing this, Shangguan Rong was displeased.
A few days ago, the two of them had gone to the Ye Mansion to summon Ye Wushuang back to the Qingyun Academy. They didn’t see the person, but were beaten up and driven away by the Tiangang realm old servant of the Ye Mansion.
Li Changqing had promised to help them vent their anger.
But now… Li Changqing didn’t seem to have any intention of hitting Ye Wushuang!
Li Changqing coughed and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you beat him up!”
“However, you two should leave first. I have something else to discuss with Ye Wushuang.”
Shangguan Rong and Bu Chenfeng reluctantly left the valley, casting resentful glances at Ye Wushuang.
As Inner Court Elders and high-ranking Yuanfu realm cultivators of the Qingyun Academy, they had lost face in front of the Ye Mansion.
Seeing the two leave, Li Changqing looked at Ye Wushuang and said helplessly, “You see, if I don’t beat you up a bit, they won’t be able to let go of their anger.”
“Go ahead and hit me!” Ye Wushuang stood there, not dodging or avoiding.
Just as Li Changqing was about to strike, Ye Wushuang added, “If you hurt me too much, I’ll go find Chi Yuan and Chi Xuan!”
Hearing this, Li Changqing stumbled, looking at Ye Wushuang with gritted teeth…
