Upon hearing the woman’s words, Ye Guan gave an awkward smile. He quickly turned around, walked to the desk, picked up the small tower, and left!
He absolutely could not lose Tower Grandpa!
For big scenes, only Tower Grandpa could hold the fort.
Seeing Ye Guan depart, Elder Zhang hurriedly stood up to escort him out. At the doorway, Elder Zhang quickly said, “Watch the steps, don’t trip!”
Ye Guan’s expression froze.
Elder Zhang, are you serious?
While Ye Guan stood there in confusion, Elder Zhang casually slipped a storage ring into Ye Guan’s pocket without anyone noticing. He said earnestly, “We have understood the issue you raised. Rest assured, the Inner Cabinet will make improvements, and its members will reflect on themselves. As thanks for offering such valuable feedback, we have decided to reward you. This is your reward for pointing out the problem.”
Before Ye Guan could respond, Elder Zhang turned and left.
Ye Guan stared at Elder Zhang’s disappearing figure. His mind was still buzzing. When he finally snapped out of it, he quickly took the storage ring from his pocket. Inside were five million immortal crystals!
Five million!
“Holy crap!”
Ye Guan froze on the spot.
In that moment, he was completely dumbfounded.
Five million immortal crystals, not gold crystals, immortal crystals!
Just for raising a question, they give five million immortal crystals?
He naturally did not believe it!
Standing there, Ye Guan was silent for a moment before saying, “Tower Grandpa, they are giving face to you, right?”
The small tower quickly replied, “Yes!”
He absolutely could not let this little rascal think too much. If this guy started thinking deeply, it would be terrifying.
After pondering for a long time, Ye Guan asked, “Tower Grandpa, they were very easygoing with me earlier, especially Elder Zhang. He was not only easygoing but showed a trace of respect toward me, yet he was quite indifferent to you. Are you sure it is because of your face and not because of my father’s face?”
The small tower: “…..”
At that moment, Granny Li hurried over. “Young Master Ye, are you alright?”
Ye Guan pulled his thoughts back, shook his head with a smile, and said, “I’m fine!”
Granny Li breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. “Good that you’re fine. Let’s go to South Garden!”
Ye Guan nodded slightly. “Alright!”
First, go see Miss Ye Guanzhi!
As for Tower Grandpa’s matters, he could slowly dig into them later!
After Ye Guan and Granny Li left, the crowd of Guanzhi Academy students outside remained full of confusion.
What exactly did Ye Guan discuss inside the Inner Cabinet?
Would the Inner Cabinet release Ye Guanzhi?
Everyone was puzzled.
Inside the Inner Cabinet Hall.
Elder Zhang stood respectfully beside Li Ban Zhi.
Li Ban Zhi spoke softly. “What do you think of him?”
Elder Zhang quickly replied, “A heaven-defying genius, one in a million years!”
Li Ban Zhi smiled without speaking.
Elder Zhang gave a wry smile. “No flattery, those are my true feelings.”
Li Ban Zhi said softly, “He really is quite outstanding.”
Elder Zhang nodded. “Yes!”
Li Ban Zhi suddenly said, “Head of the Dark Seclusion Courtyard!”
Her voice fell, and a shadowy figure appeared beside her.
Li Ban Zhi asked, “Any movement from the Immortal Treasure Pavilion?”
The shadow nodded. “They are mobilising immortal soldiers, dao soldiers, and some of the martial guards stationed in the Guanzhi Cosmos!”
Martial guards from the Martial Pavilion!
Li Ban Zhi narrowed her eyes, a cold glint flashing within them. “Keep a close watch!”
The shadow nodded slightly and quietly withdrew.
South Garden.
Not long after, Ye Guan and Granny Li arrived at South Garden.
By the side of a lake, Ye Guan saw Ye Guanzhi. Today she wore a pure white long dress as white as snow. Perhaps feeling it was too plain, she had tied a purple sash around her waist, adding a touch of unique charm to her elegant and intellectual aura.
At this moment, Ye Guanzhi was looking at Ye Guan with a smile on her face. Her clear eyes were like autumn waters, and her exquisite features were simply perfect. Not to mention within Guanzhi Academy, even across the entire Guanzhi Cosmos, she was an absolute beauty.
Ye Guanzhi gave a slight smile. “Young Master Ye, long time no see!”
Ye Guan also smiled. “Miss Guanzhi, hello!”
Granny Li glanced at the two of them, then quietly stepped back.
Ye Guanzhi studied Ye Guan for a moment, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly. “Sword Emperor?”
Ye Guan nodded.
Ye Guanzhi blinked. “They all say you have already reached Great Sword Emperor!”
Ye Guan laughed. “If I want to, I can do it anytime!”
Hearing this, Ye Guanzhi’s eyes lit up. “Impressive!”
Ye Guan hesitated, then said, “Sorry for getting you trapped here for so long!”
Ye Guanzhi shook her head with a smile. “It is fine. I only did what I believed was right!”
Ye Guan looked at Ye Guanzhi and sighed inwardly. This girl really is wonderful!
Ye Guanzhi set the ancient book in her hand aside and glanced around. “During this time spent reading here, I have gained quite a lot!”
Ye Guan smiled. “For example?”
Ye Guanzhi said softly, “Some things really are hard to change! Before this, I thought about many matters too simply! Of course…”
She gave a gentle smile. “I will not give up! I really like a sentence once said by the Pavilion Master of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion: ‘Though the road is long, walking it will get you there. Though the task is difficult, doing it will surely succeed.'”
Ye Guan nodded slightly. “I just went to the Inner Cabinet. The senior there said she will release you very soon!”
Ye Guanzhi smiled. “Really?”
Ye Guan nodded. “From her appearance, she did not seem to be lying!”
Ye Guanzhi smiled, then said, “Enough about my matters! Tell me about yours!”
Ye Guan was a little curious. “What about me?”
Ye Guanzhi laughed. “You actually became a Sword Emperor so quickly. You really are not simple! You mentioned before that you have a Tower Grandpa. Is he the one teaching you the way of the sword?”
Ye Guan nodded. “Sort of!”
Ye Guanzhi pursed her lips and smiled. “What do you mean, sort of?”
Ye Guan smiled, then said, “Miss Guanzhi, how about we spar again?”
In their last battle, he had been completely defeated!
This time, he wanted to fight once more!
Ye Guanzhi blinked. “I do not like fighting! However, since you want to spar, then let us spar!”
Ye Guan laughed. “Good!”
Ye Guanzhi glanced around, then said, “We need to change locations!”
Ye Guan asked, “Can we go outside?”
Ye Guanzhi smiled. “Let us try!”
With that, she walked outward. At that moment, an aura suddenly locked onto her.
Ye Guanzhi gave a slight smile. “I am only going to spar a bit with Young Master Ye, and then I will return!”
Moments later, that aura suddenly vanished!
Ye Guanzhi looked at Ye Guan and smiled. “Come!”
Ye Guan nodded. “Alright!”
Soon the two of them used a teleportation array to arrive in a stretch of starry sky. Ye Guanzhi looked around, then said, “This is my personal cultivation ground. No one can probe this place.”
Clearly, she did not want anyone to see her fight with Ye Guan. After all, in two months Ye Guan still had to battle a Child of Destiny.
Ye Guan looked at Ye Guanzhi. “Miss Guanzhi, I am going to draw my sword!”
Ye Guanzhi nodded. “Go ahead!”
Whoosh!
Suddenly the space in front of Ye Guanzhi cracked open. A sword shot straight toward her!
Instant-kill sword!
Moreover, it was a sword that broke rules, and this sword was not an energy sword but the Dragon Roar Sword!
Facing Ye Guanzhi, he did not dare show the slightest carelessness!
However, when that sword came within a dozen inches of Ye Guanzhi, a mysterious power directly suppressed the Dragon Roar Sword!
Seeing this, Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed slightly, shocked. At that moment, Ye Guanzhi suddenly looked toward him. She raised her right hand and gently pressed downward. “Suppress!”
Boom!
Suddenly the space around Ye Guan trembled violently. Next, a mysterious power enveloped him. At the same time, countless golden characters appeared in the surrounding space, floating like tadpoles through the void. They radiated terrifying power and pressed down toward Ye Guan.
In that instant, Ye Guan felt as though a hundred great mountains were crushing him. His entire body could not move, and that power was growing stronger!
Ye Guan clenched both fists tightly!
Boom!
A terrifying sword momentum surged out from within him. At that moment, Ye Guanzhi pressed downward again with her right hand!
Boom!
The sword momentum Ye Guan released was instantly crushed. But right then, the space around Ye Guanzhi cracked open, and several flying swords shot out at extreme speed. The eye could only see sword lights, not their forms.
Ye Guanzhi froze. At this moment Ye Guan surely could not condense more flying swords, yet swords were still emerging from the space around her!
There was only one explanation. These swords had been hidden in secret long beforehand!
Without thinking further, Ye Guanzhi swept her fingers horizontally!
Boom!
Those several flying swords were instantly knocked away. But at that moment, the distant Ye Guan suddenly thrust out a sword.
Crack!
With this thrust, the space in front of him split open. The instant the space tore, the space in front of Ye Guanzhi also cracked, and another sword shot toward her.
Instant-kill sword!
Yet facing this terrifying sword, Ye Guanzhi suddenly pinched with her fingers and actually clamped the sword firmly between them!
Boom!
The space around Ye Guanzhi trembled violently and then shattered!
At that instant, the space behind Ye Guanzhi cracked open, and a sword flew out.
This sword was the true killing move!
Ye Guanzhi’s expression remained calm. She suddenly vanished like a phantom, causing the sword to miss completely.
Seeing this, Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed. He abruptly turned around. The moment he turned, his face changed dramatically because another terrifying mysterious power enveloped him once more. Those mysterious golden runes reappeared in the surrounding space!
Suppression again!
But the instant that power appeared, Ye Guan suddenly punched out!
World-Rending Inch Force!
Boom!
In an instant, a terrifying force erupted in front of Ye Guan. The powerful blast instantly shattered the surrounding space. At the same time, Ye Guanzhi was sent flying dozens of metres back by this horrifying force. Everywhere she passed, space shattered inch by inch. The power was utterly shocking.
While retreating, shock flashed in Ye Guanzhi’s eyes. When she finally stopped, a sword suddenly struck toward her face.
Ye Guanzhi pointed forward with her fingers. A beam of golden light surged from her fingertip!
Boom!
A burst of golden light exploded outward. Ye Guan’s sword was suddenly fixed in place. But at that moment, several more flying swords flew out from the surrounding space toward Ye Guanzhi!
Ye Guanzhi abruptly retreated ten metres. Those dozen swords struck nothing but air!
At that instant, Ye Guan suddenly vanished from his spot!
Whoosh!
A streak of sword light tore through the field!
Ye Guanzhi suddenly opened her palm and gently lifted it forward.
Boom!
In an instant, the hundred metres of space in front of her was forcibly lifted up by her!
Boom!
Ye Guan, sword and all, was shaken back a hundred metres. The moment he stopped, countless golden characters appeared in the space around him. Terrifying pressure swept in, pinning him in place.
Just as Ye Guan was about to act, Ye Guanzhi pointed gently with her fingers. “The vast and righteous qi of heaven and earth, come!”
Boom!
Suddenly countless terrifying mysterious forces surged from the heavens and earth, all pouring into those golden characters. In an instant, the terrifying power around Ye Guan exploded in strength!
Boom!
In that moment, Ye Guan felt as though ten thousand great mountains were pressing down on him!
Right now, he felt as if his entire body was about to explode.
Ye Guan gripped his hands tightly. He wanted to draw his sword, but he simply could not.
Unless he took that step and reached Great Sword Emperor!
At that moment, a mysterious voice suddenly appeared in his mind. “She forms a domain with literature. Why do you not form a domain with the sword?”
It was not Tower Grandpa’s voice!
It was a woman’s voice!
Ye Guan froze.
The voice spoke again. “Form a domain with the sword, and you can break it!”
Yet Ye Guan shook his head. “No!”
The mysterious voice was stunned.
Ye Guan’s right hand clenched fiercely.
Crack!
A terrifying force suddenly erupted from his fist!
World-Rending Inch Force!
Crack!
The powerful force caused the surrounding space to tremble violently. But in the next moment, Ye Guan unleashed World-Rending Inch Force three more times in succession!
Boom boom boom!
In an instant, the space around Ye Guan exploded and shattered.
Ye Guan suddenly vanished and reappeared right in front of Ye Guanzhi. Ye Guanzhi’s eyes narrowed slightly. She took a step back, and her literary domain reappeared.
But in that split second, Ye Guan unleashed ten swords in a row.
Crack!
A corner of Ye Guanzhi’s literary domain cracked open.
Seeing this, both Ye Guanzhi and the mysterious voice spoke at the same time. “Breaking the surface at a single point!”
The mysterious voice exclaimed in admiration. “A shocking genius, a natural born sword cultivator!”
The small tower suddenly burst into loud laughter. “My teaching is excellent! I really am amazing, haha…”
The mysterious voice: “……”
Regarding the bursts of chapters, everyone please wait a little. They will come during the climax scenes, letting everyone enjoy a full satisfying read all at once. That kind of burst release is what makes it meaningful. My dear handsome readers, do you think what I said is correct or not?
