Daddy Ye!
Hearing this, Monk Wuwu and the Deity’s expressions turned peculiar!
Clearly, the Saint King Hall couldn’t handle the Backer King’s sister!
At that moment, Lord Boundless walked to the side, gazing at the man on the stone pillar before him, a trace of complexity in his eyes.
Monk Wuwu asked softly, “Is this the Ye Emperor?”
Lord Boundless nodded.
Monk Wuwu glanced at the Ye Emperor, then said, “Among all the Emperors, he was second only to the Ancient Heavenly Emperor?”
Lord Boundless replied, “Yes! Back then, he fought four Saint Kings alone without falling behind, truly remarkable! But alas…”
He sighed, shaking his head.
Monk Wuwu asked gravely, “Was he left here because he tried to seize the Ancient Heavenly Emperor’s corpse?”
Lord Boundless nodded, “Indeed! The Ancient Heavenly Emperor was different from other Emperors, his corpse couldn’t be left here, it would’ve been a disgrace! Because it wasn’t the Saint King Hall that defeated him! If it had been, the Ye Emperor wouldn’t have risked his life to retrieve the body.”
Monk Wuwu grew curious, “Then who killed him?”
Lord Boundless was silent for a moment, then said, “He had bad luck!”
Monk Wuwu: “…”
Lord Boundless shook his head, “Let’s go! I’ll take you to see the Ninth Dimensional Universe!”
With that, he walked off into the distance!
The Deity suddenly said, “Monk, why is Lord Boundless taking us around?”
Monk Wuwu pressed his palms together, “Because we saw him flee back then, he’s showing off to prove he’s very strong, and that his escape was just a strategic retreat, right?”
The Deity, after a pause, said, “That’s… hard to believe!”
Monk Wuwu glanced at him, “If not to show off, then why do you think he’s bringing us along?”
The Deity: “…”
Soon, the three vanished from the plain.

Ancient Desolation.
With the Qin family’s help, Qin Guan swiftly sent people into the inner region, establishing the Guanxuan Academy and Immortal Treasure Pavilion!
Thanks to Ye Xuan’s influence, the ten major forces of Ancient Desolation were very cooperative, some even openly friendly, making Qin Guan’s work smooth.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan was cultivating!
His goal was the Other Shore Realm!
His biggest weakness was his low cultivation, but with the Dimensional Token gifted by the Xiao Clan, he could easily enter the Dimensional Universe and absorb its dimensional power!
In the Dimensional Universe, Ye Xuan frantically absorbed dimensional power to temper himself!
These days, he’d been cultivating relentlessly!
After witnessing Lu Chaoxi’s terrifying strength, he felt a sense of urgency!
As for Qin Guan, he didn’t even consider her in the same league, her fights were backed by an entire team!
You thought you were fighting one person?
No!
You were fighting a whole crew!
While Ye Xuan cultivated, Qin Guan was vigorously expanding the Guanxuan Academy and Immortal Treasure Pavilion.
Beyond that, she was heavily developing her path of technological dao.
She had a team of exceptional researchers, top-tier scientific cultivators, all fanatically studying how to break through current technological limits.
With money!
And talent!
Qin Guan’s influence was growing rapidly!
Most importantly, she was secretly planting mysterious bombs across Ancient Desolation, their purpose unknown!
—
Dimensional Universe.
After an unknown period of cultivation, Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, a terrifying aura erupting from him, causing ripples in the surrounding spacetime!
Ye Xuan took a deep breath, a slight smile curling his lips!
Other Shore Realm!
With the Crystal King and Dimensional Token’s help, he’d easily reached it!
Not only that, his sword dao had also broken through, a dual breakthrough in cultivation and swordsmanship!
Other Shore Realm powerhouses were no match for him now!
At that moment, Qin Guan appeared beside him, dressed today in a snow-white gown, exuding an ethereal charm.
Qin Guan smiled, “Breakthrough?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes! Other Shore Realm!”
Qin Guan smiled faintly, “I need your help again!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Tell me!”
Qin Guan said gravely, “Qingxuan Sword!”
Ye Xuan paused, then asked, “You need the Qingxuan Sword?”
Qin Guan nodded, “Yes!”
She glanced around, then said, “I need to break through the spacetime barrier between the parallel universe and the Dimensional Universe!”
Ye Xuan was stunned, “Connect the two worlds?”
Qin Guan nodded, “We must plan ahead! The spacetime barrier between the parallel and Dimensional Universes means our divine bombs can’t reach the Dimensional Universe quickly, and even if they do, the barrier weakens their power. I need to establish a complete teleportation channel to ensure my divine bombs can enter the Dimensional Universe for a nuclear strike in the shortest time!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Qin Guan smiled, “Your Qingxuan Sword can ignore the spacetime of both the parallel and Dimensional Universes, so I need it!”
Ye Xuan nodded, handing over the Qingxuan Sword.
Qin Guan took it, then added, “One more thing, I need your little tower, I want my researchers to work inside it, time outside is too limited! I need to build a massive arms factory in your tower, and plant world-destroying divine bombs…”
She extended her hand again!
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, this rich lady was truly shameless!
Naturally, he didn’t refuse, handing over the little tower.
Qin Guan giggled, “The teleportation arrays in Ancient Desolation are mostly built, earning us loads of silver every day, hehe…”
Ye Xuan was shocked, “So fast?”
Qin Guan grinned, “That’s the power of capital!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Qin Guan continued, “Keep cultivating, I’m off to work!”
With that, she took the tower and Qingxuan Sword, vanishing into the distance.
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, now without his sword and tower!
As he prepared to leave, a woman suddenly appeared in the distance.
Seeing her, Ye Xuan froze.
It was Shi Li from the Shi Clan!
Shi Li smiled faintly, “Young Master Ye, we meet again!”
Ye Xuan chuckled, “Miss Shi Li, is there something you need?”
Shi Li gave him a playful glare, “Can’t I visit without a reason?”
Ye Xuan laughed, “Of course you can!”
Shi Li grew serious, “I heard you opened an academy in the inner region!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
Shi Li smiled, “I looked into your academy, it’s mainly for scholarship, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Ancient Desolation was different from other worlds, he couldn’t just declare he’d reshape the universe or establish order!
Here, he had to take it slow, like boiling a frog, gradually infiltrating!
Right now, the Guanxuan Academy needed the ten major forces’ cooperation and support!
Otherwise, constant trouble from this or that faction would be a headache!
So, he hoped to build good ties with the ten major forces, their deep roots in Ancient Desolation would greatly aid the academy’s growth if they backed it!
Shi Li added, “I’ve found a group of learned scholars for you, they’re dedicated to scholarship, and I’ve sent them to your academy in the inner region!”
Ye Xuan was stunned, then quickly said, “Thank you!”
Shi Li smiled, “Also, I have a small request, I hope you’ll agree!”
Ye Xuan chuckled, “Tell me!”
Shi Li said seriously, “I’d like some of my Shi Clan members to join your academy and study there!”
Ye Xuan understood her intent, smiling, “Of course! But they’ll need to follow the rules!”
Shi Li laughed, “Don’t worry, they’ll be very well-behaved!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Good!”
Clearly, the Shi Clan wanted to align with the Guanxuan Academy, which wasn’t a bad thing for the academy!
His goal was to conquer all of Ancient Desolation, not just one faction!
Shi Li smiled, “How big do you plan to make this academy?”
Ye Xuan thought, then said, “The bigger, the better!”
Shi Li asked gravely, “So, the more students, the better?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Shi Li pondered, then said, “To make it big, you need something attractive to draw in talented people!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “My academy recruits everyone, including those without talent or who can’t cultivate! Of course, prodigies and geniuses are very welcome too!”
Shi Li was stunned, then asked, “You’re really focused on scholarship and education?”
Ye Xuan grinned, “That’s the main goal!”
Shi Li glanced at him, smiling, “Alright! If you need help, just let me know, I can still call some shots in the Shi Clan!”
Ye Xuan chuckled, “Then I’ll thank you in advance, Miss Shi Li!”
Shi Li smiled faintly, “Too polite! Oh, one more thing, Ye Chen of the Ye Clan is hosting a gathering of all geniuses in Ancient Desolation in the Holy City, are you going?”
Ye Xuan frowned slightly, “I didn’t get an invitation!”
Shi Li laughed, “He didn’t invite anyone specifically, just a blanket call for anyone who considers themselves a genius or prodigy to head to the Holy City. I suspect it’s because of the Dimensional Universe, their geniuses have banded together, so our parallel universe might need to unite too!”
Ye Xuan thought, then nodded, “I’ll go!”
Shi Li’s lips curved, “Let’s go together, we’re headed the same way!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
