Inside the Small Pagoda.
Qin Guan looked at Ye Xuan standing before her, her expression grave.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was truly a blood-soaked figure, exuding terrifying killing intent and ferocity. He was extremely dangerous, having nearly attacked her several times!
The Mad Demon Bloodline!
Qin Guan was well aware of this Mad Demon Bloodline. It could be considered the most powerful bloodline today, but it had a fatal flaw: it drove its wielder into madness. Once in that state, they truly recognized no one.
Thus, Ye Xuan had to be brought back to his senses, or he would attack anyone in his current state!
Qin Guan said gravely, “Small Pagoda, is there a way to make him regain clarity?”
The Small Pagoda was silent for a moment before saying, “Suppress the Mad Demon Bloodline within him!”
Qin Guan asked, “How do we suppress it?”
The Small Pagoda hesitated, then said, “Forcefully suppress it!”
Qin Guan pressed, “How do we forcefully suppress it?”
The Small Pagoda was silent again before saying, “I’m just a pagoda!”
Qin Guan’s face darkened with frustration.
At that moment, Ye Xuan’s Human Realm Sword Intent suddenly began to drift out slowly!
Human Realm Sword Intent!
A flash of surprise crossed Qin Guan’s eyes as she noticed Ye Xuan’s Human Realm Sword Intent was contending with his bloodline power!
Seeing this, Qin Guan’s heart leapt with joy!
Clearly, the reason Ye Xuan had retained a sliver of clarity earlier was entirely due to this Human Realm Sword Intent!
Nearby, Qin Guan watched the Human Realm Sword Intent, clenching her small fists. “Come on! Overpower his bloodline!”
As if understanding her, the Human Realm Sword Intent surged, fiercely suppressing Ye Xuan’s bloodline power!
But the bloodline power refused to yield, its aura flaring as it pushed back against the Human Realm Sword Intent!
Before, the two might have been evenly matched, but the Mad Demon Bloodline was now entirely different. As it unleashed its power, the Human Realm Sword Intent was instantly overwhelmed!
Ye Xuan’s once-clear eyes turned into a sea of blood again!
Seeing this, Qin Guan deflated like a punctured balloon, letting out a sigh.
She realized Ye Xuan’s bloodline power was now completely different, countless times stronger than before.
It was incomparable!
What to do?
Looking at the blood-soaked Ye Xuan, Qin Guan was at a loss.
What now?
Just then, Ye Xuan’s Qingxuan Sword trembled violently. The next moment, he slashed directly at Qin Guan!
*Swish!*
A streak of sword light tore downward!
Qin Guan’s pupils shrank. She quickly pulled out a storage ring. “Ten billion cosmic divine veins for you!”
The sword stopped an inch above her head!
Ye Xuan reached out, took the storage ring, and put it away!
Qin Guan looked at Ye Xuan, blinking. “Are you… really mad?”
Ye Xuan turned to her, his eyes still a blood-red sea.
Qin Guan hesitated, then said, “Little Xuan, don’t pretend to be mad…”
At that moment, Ye Xuan’s Qingxuan Sword trembled violently again!
Seeing this, Qin Guan pulled out another storage ring. “Ten billion cosmic divine veins!”
Ye Xuan’s left hand immediately took the ring and stored it!
“What the…?” Qin Guan stared at Ye Xuan in shock. “You… you’re not actually pretending, are you?”
Seeing the Qingxuan Sword tremble again, Qin Guan turned and fled the Small Pagoda!
After escaping, she patted her chest. “Little Xuan is terrifying!”
The Small Pagoda suddenly said, “Sister Qin Guan, the young master seems truly mad…”
Qin Guan was puzzled. “Then why does he still know to take money?”
The Small Pagoda replied, “Maybe he’s scared of being poor! It’s an instinctive reaction!”
Qin Guan: “…”
The Small Pagoda said, “Sister Qin Guan, what do we do now?”
Facing the maddened Ye Xuan, Qin Guan felt a headache coming on!
Just then, Ye Xuan suddenly appeared before her. Seeing him, Qin Guan’s face changed, and she was about to flee when Ye Xuan softly said, “Qin Guan…”
Hearing this, Qin Guan froze. She hesitated. “You…”
Ye Xuan’s right hand suddenly clenched tightly, and his Human Realm Sword Intent surged wildly!
*Boom!*
Soon, with Ye Xuan’s assistance in suppressing it, the bloodline power gradually calmed!
After a long while, clarity slowly returned to Ye Xuan’s eyes, though his body still radiated killing intent and ferocity!
Seeing his gaze clear, Qin Guan sighed in relief. “Are you alright now?”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. “I’ve suppressed it!”
Qin Guan relaxed. “Good!”
Ye Xuan looked down at his body and said gravely, “My bloodline power has mutated!”
Qin Guan nodded. “It’s much, much stronger than before!”
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes, carefully sensing the changes in his bloodline. After a moment, his expression grew increasingly serious!
The change was immense!
He felt his current bloodline was completely different from before!
The Small Pagoda suddenly said, “Young Master, congratulations!”
Ye Xuan was momentarily stunned. “Congratulations for what?”
The Small Pagoda said gravely, “Young Master, your bloodline power has awakened its unyielding nature!”
Ye Xuan frowned. “Unyielding?”
The Small Pagoda explained, “Yes! Actually, the master’s bloodline isn’t just the Mad Demon Bloodline. The Mad Demon Bloodline belongs to the Yang family, but the master has elevated it into the Unyielding Bloodline! Now, you’ve truly grasped the essence of the Mad Demon Bloodline!”
Ye Xuan was curious. “Small Pagoda, you know quite a bit!”
The Small Pagoda was silent for a moment before saying, “Young Master, do you see me as some unlearned, boastful pagoda?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Yes!”
The Small Pagoda: “…”
Nearby, Qin Guan suddenly laughed. “Regardless, this is good news! With this bloodline power, you can absolutely challenge those in the Broken Heart Realm!”
Ye Xuan nodded. “I can fight them, but whether I can win is another matter!”
Qin Guan was about to speak when An You suddenly appeared. An You said gravely, “Pavilion Master, Young Master Ye, bad news!”
Qin Guan looked at An You. “Speak!”
An You’s expression was extremely serious. “According to our investigation, Great Chu has an expeditionary army, founded by Chu Bihan and maintained to this day! After the Great Chu Realm was destroyed, Chu Nan sent word to the expeditionary army in the Ancient Wasteland. That means their powerhouses are likely already on their way back!”
Expeditionary army!
Qin Guan nodded. “I know!”
Hearing this, An You was stunned, then said, “The Pavilion Master knows…”
As he spoke, he seemed to realize something and stopped abruptly.
At that moment, he was drenched in cold sweat!
He had thought he was Qin Guan’s only informant, but now it was clear she had other intelligence sources he didn’t know about!
Qin Guan said softly, “The Ancient Wasteland! It’s a world very, very far from here! Great Chu’s expeditionary army is there, led by Chu Tianxing, a prodigy from back then, also in the Broken Heart Realm! However, his combat power far surpasses Chu Nan’s!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Two Broken Heart Realm experts?”
Qin Guan nodded. “Two!”
Ye Xuan looked at her. “How long until they reach the Other Shore Star?”
Qin Guan replied, “At most two hours!”
Two hours!
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment before saying, “Let’s go!”
Qin Guan looked at him. “Go?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Qin Guan asked, “Where?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Guanxuan Academy!”
Qin Guan’s lips curved slightly. “Great minds think alike!”
With that, the two rode their swords and vanished into the starry horizon.
In their place, An You was silent for a moment before muttering, “What does that mean?”
…
Ye Xuan and Qin Guan returned to Guanxuan Academy. Seeing Ye Xuan, Qingqiu was naturally overjoyed!
Qingqiu looked at Ye Xuan and Qin Guan, then smiled. “Why are you back?”
Ye Xuan grinned. “I missed you!”
Qin Guan rolled her eyes at him. Smooth talker!
This time, she and Ye Xuan had returned to avoid trouble!
They had obliterated the Great Chu Realm! Would Great Chu let them off? With two Broken Heart Realm experts coming, they naturally chose to lay low!
And what better place to hide than Guanxuan Academy!
There was a super powerhouse here!
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Qingqiu smiled faintly. “Brother, did you cause trouble?”
Ye Xuan’s expression froze.
Nearby, Qin Guan covered her mouth, chuckling.
Qingqiu walked to Ye Xuan, took his hand, and smiled. “Trouble’s no big deal!”
Ye Xuan’s heart warmed. He said softly, “Little sister, aren’t you afraid you’ll spoil me?”
Qingqiu looked at him. “Isn’t it only right for a sister to spoil her brother?”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Nearby, Qin Guan immediately gave a thumbs-up. “Impressive, impressive, impressive!”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily!
At that moment, the distant sky trembled slightly.
Seeing this, Qin Guan’s eyelids twitched, and she quickly moved to Qingqiu’s side.
She still had trump cards, but that didn’t stop her from playing it safe!
Ye Xuan looked up at the sky. “They came this fast?”
Qin Guan nodded. “Faster than I expected! They mean business!”
Ye Xuan turned to Qin Guan, who said solemnly, “I fear nothing!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Qingqiu looked up at the sky. In the distant horizon, an old man and a middle-aged man approached slowly!
The old man leading them was Chu Nan, the current patriarch of Great Chu!
Beside him was Chu Tianxing, who had rushed back from the Ancient Wasteland!
Chu Nan’s gaze fell directly on Qin Guan and Ye Xuan, his eyes like swords, as if he wanted to tear them apart!
The entire Great Chu Realm had been destroyed by these two!
But beside Chu Nan, Chu Tianxing’s gaze landed on Qingqiu. Upon seeing her, his eyes narrowed!
Nearby, Chu Nan was about to speak when Chu Tianxing suddenly said, “Retreat!”
Hearing this, Chu Nan turned to him, his face full of astonishment.
