Qin Guan left!
She walked away, somewhat dejected.
After Qin Guan departed, Qing’er took Ye Xuan’s hand and continued walking toward the depths of the starry sky.
Ye Xuan gazed into the distant cosmos, feeling an unprecedented lightness in his body, the shackles in his heart finally gone.
Rely on himself?
No!
He, Ye Xuan, had accepted his fate!
He would be the king of relying on others.
Letting go of his obsession was like shedding those shackles, leaving him free and unburdened!
As if struck by a thought, Ye Xuan turned to Qing’er, “Are you leaving again?”
Qing’er nodded.
Ye Xuan was puzzled, “To where?”
Qing’er pointed ahead, “To a place even the Master of the Great Dao Pen hasn’t touched!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “But isn’t it said that the Master of the Great Dao Pen is the cause and effect of everything in this world? That all things and spirits here were written by him…”
Qing’er shook her head.
Ye Xuan looked at her, waiting for an explanation.
Qing’er said softly, “In this world, he’s nearly invincible, but in his own world…”
She turned to Ye Xuan, “He’s doing quite poorly.”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Qing’er looked up at the deepest part of the starry sky, her gaze piercing to some unknown place. After a long moment, she said softly, “Brother, to live is to be happy. As for being invincible… if I’m invincible, isn’t that the same as you being invincible?”
Ye Xuan nodded eagerly, agreeing, “Yes! Yes!”
Qing’er’s lips curved slightly, “Live well, live happily. If you meet someone you can’t beat…”
She pointed to herself, “Call me!”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then tightly grasped Qing’er’s hand, saying, “Absolutely!”
Qing’er smiled faintly, pulling Ye Xuan toward the depths of the starry sky.
As they walked, a surge of sword intent suddenly emanated from Ye Xuan, growing stronger and stronger!
Second generation?
King of relying on others?
He had once been bound by these notions, always wanting to prove himself, to show that he, Ye Xuan, could be the first generation, that he didn’t need to rely on anyone!
But reality taught him that being the king of relying on others was the most enjoyable!
What Ye Xuan hadn’t expected was that when he chose to accept his fate, his sword intent grew stronger!
Why was that?
Puzzled, Ye Xuan asked Qing’er, “Qing’er, look, my sword intent is getting stronger!”
Qing’er, holding his hand, smiled lightly, “You’re following your true heart!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
Qing’er continued, “Cultivation is about cultivating the heart, and cultivating the heart is about cultivating yourself. Cultivation is like forging a sword, requiring constant tempering of oneself! You let go of your obsession, not yourself, and that’s why your sword intent broke through.”
She turned to Ye Xuan, “Do you think relying on others is shameful?”
Ye Xuan remained silent.
Qing’er smiled lightly, “Didn’t I rely on you to survive back then? Didn’t your father rely on many people before?”
Her voice softened, “Brother, whether you rely on yourself or others, don’t dwell on it too much. If you can fight, fight. If you can’t, call me. Just follow your heart and be at ease!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “I understand!”
Hearing this, Qing’er sighed in relief!
She’d finally convinced him!
She genuinely didn’t want Ye Xuan to be so burdened, but he’d always insisted on relying on himself before, leaving her helpless. She could only respect his choice and give him chances to grow.
But in her view, it wasn’t necessary!
If she was invincible, he was invincible!
A day later, Qing’er left!
This parting was different from before. Now, whenever he wanted to see her, he could call her anytime!
In simple terms, he’d unlocked an ultimate active skill.
Summoning!
Before, he couldn’t even contact Qing’er, but now things were different!
Completely different!
As long as he wished, he could summon Qing’er anytime!
Ye Xuan glanced at the endless starry sky around him. After a moment, he chuckled softly, “Now, in this universe, I’ll walk sideways!”
With that, he turned and left.
…
Guanxuan Academy.
The previous battle had ended with a complete victory for the Guanxuan Universe.
Now, the Guanxuan Universe was in a state of recovery, with no enemies left, allowing for rapid development!
Under Ding Shaoyao and Qingqiu’s management, Guanxuan Academy and the various star domains of the Guanxuan Universe slowly returned to normal and began to grow.
…
One day, Ye Xuan lay in a courtyard, legs crossed, basking in the sun, reading an ancient book.
Completely at ease!
Cultivation?
He no longer pushed himself to cultivate desperately!
Cultivation was something to take as it came, no need to force it!
At that moment, a woman approached slowly.
It was An Lanxiu!
Ye Xuan stood, patted the spot beside him, and smiled, “Sit here!”
An Lanxiu walked over and sat beside him, looking at him, “Is it over?”
Ye Xuan shook his head, “It’s just beginning!”
An Lanxiu frowned slightly.
Ye Xuan smiled lightly, “My goal now is to change the Guanxuan Universe and the Boundless Universe. I know it’s complex and difficult, but I’ll work hard to do it. I want to establish a new order in this vast universe!”
An Lanxiu nodded, “I understand!”
Ye Xuan looked at her and smiled, “Before, I lived so tiringly because no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stay handsome for more than three days, and my enemies were always inexplicably powerful! Yet I kept saying I’d rely on myself… so every time Qing’er stepped in, it felt like a slap to my face.”
Lying back down, he chuckled, “But now, I suddenly feel so relaxed! If anyone tries to bully me or gang up on me, I’ll just call for help!”
An Lanxiu was silent.
Ye Xuan looked at her, smiling, “Come, let’s go to the Boundless Universe!”
With that, he took her hand and vanished toward the starry sky’s edge.
…
Boundless Universe.
With Wubian Master gone, the Boundless Universe was leaderless. Moreover, its major forces were in a state of panic!
Without Wubian Master, who could stop Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasure Pavilion?
They’d all heard about the events in the Guanxuan Universe, leaving them in despair!
Wubian Master had fled—what chance did they have?
Surrender!
It was their only option!
When Ye Xuan arrived in Boundless City with An Lanxiu, a middle-aged man appeared before them.
It was Mo Xi, the patriarch of the Moro Clan!
Mo Xi gave a deep bow to Ye Xuan and An Lanxiu, “Greetings, Young Master Ye!”
Ye Xuan looked at Mo Xi and smiled, “Something up?”
Mo Xi quickly said, “I’m here on behalf of the Moro Clan to welcome Young Master Ye!”
Ye Xuan, holding An Lanxiu’s hand, walked up to Mo Xi, patted his shoulder lightly, and smiled, “Tell the major forces of the Boundless Universe that I, Ye Xuan, am not here for revenge. Tell them not to worry or be afraid!”
Hearing this, Mo Xi sighed in relief.
Ye Xuan added, “I’ll need your cooperation for some things later. No problem, right?”
Mo Xi hurriedly said, “No problem! Absolutely no problem!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Following me and Pavilion Master Qin will definitely be better than following Wubian Master!”
With that, he led An Lanxiu away.
Mo Xi, left behind, sighed in relief again!
He had genuinely feared Ye Xuan was here for revenge. If so, they’d have no chance at all!
Not to mention anything else, Ye Xuan’s personal strength alone was enough to make them despair!
In the Divine Tribulation Realm, who could defeat Ye Xuan now?
…
On the street, Ye Xuan asked, “What’s your plan next?”
An Lanxiu was silent.
Ye Xuan smiled, “Just stay by my side!”
An Lanxiu looked at him. He held her hand tightly and said softly, “We came from Qing City together, and now, you’re the only one from Qing City still by my side!”
An Lanxiu said softly, “You’re not lacking for women around you!”
Ye Xuan’s expression froze, but he quickly recovered, saying, “But you’re one of a kind in my heart!”
An Lanxiu turned to look at him, saying nothing.
Ye Xuan faced her, gazing at her stunning face, and a pang of guilt suddenly rose in his heart!
In that moment, he suddenly disliked his own fickleness and affection!
Shaking his head with a smile, Ye Xuan thought to himself, *I’m not fickle; I just want to give every girl a home!*
Letting go of the tangled issue, he pulled An Lanxiu along and continued walking.
…
A day later, Shuxian from Guanxuan Academy and members of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion settled in Boundless City again. At the same time, both began constructing academies and pavilions across the Boundless Universe.
This time, they faced no resistance!
The major forces, led by the Moro Clan, actively cooperated, just as they had before, even sending their clan’s outstanding talents to study at Guanxuan Academy!
Now, being a student at Guanxuan Academy was like having a protective talisman!
And there was no longer a Boundless Universe—both it and the existing universe were now called the Guanxuan Universe!
Though he had chosen to be the king of relying on others, Ye Xuan’s cultivation didn’t stop. He left the affairs of Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasure Pavilion to others, spending his days cultivating with An Lanxiu.
Their strengths were comparable, making their spars exhilarating.
Of course, this was without Ye Xuan using external aids. With items like the Guanxuan Armour and Qingxuan Sword, An Lanxiu couldn’t match him!
These were supremely heaven-defying artifacts.
Time passed bit by bit, and after the great war, the Guanxuan Universe grew even more prosperous!
Thanks to the full financial support of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion!
…
One day, Qin Guan suddenly arrived at Ye Xuan’s courtyard. Looking at him, she smiled, “I’m here to say goodbye!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Goodbye?”
Qin Guan nodded, “I’m heading to the Bihan Star Domain! My exploration team has discovered an unknown universe, so I’m taking some of my people to build a teleportation array there!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “I’ll go with you!”
Qin Guan was stunned, then said, “You’re going too?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “To see the sights.”
Qin Guan thought it over and nodded, “Alright, let’s go together! Following you feels very safe now, the walking king of reliance, hehe…”
Ye Xuan: “…”
