Wipe out the whole family!
Hearing this, Nian Ya shook her head with a smile, “I do mind!”
Though some in the Soul Hall were at odds with her, most were her allies!
Hearing Nian Ya’s words, White-Dress Qing’er shrugged, then waved her hand. Her sword suddenly shot out!
Swish!
A flash of sword light streaked through the scene!
In the distance, as the Grand Elder charged toward Ye Xuan, a sword pierced his brow without warning!
Boom!
The Grand Elder was frozen in place!
Everyone in the scene was stunned!
Killed instantly?
The Grand Elder was equally dumbfounded. The sword was too fast! So fast he couldn’t react before being pinned!
White-Dress Qing’er walked to Ye Xuan’s side, glancing at the Grand Elder, “Anything else to say?”
The Grand Elder tried to speak, but Qing’er shook her head, “Better not.”
With that, she waved her hand.
Boom!
The Grand Elder vanished without a trace!
Everyone: “…”
Nian Ya gave White-Dress Qing’er a deep look. Though they were friends and she knew Qing’er was strong, she had no idea just how strong!
Even now, she didn’t know!
Because Qing’er’s strike was an instant kill!
Nian Ya couldn’t even tell if that sword used one-tenth or nine-tenths of Qing’er’s strength!
The difference was vast!
Qing’er glanced at the crowd, then said, “Don’t disturb my brother!”
Everyone looked at her, eyes filled with apprehension!
Nian Ya glanced at the Soul Hall powerhouses, “Who do you follow now?”
The crowd exchanged looks, then knelt on one knee before Nian Ya, “Your Highness!”
With the Grand Elder dead, who in the Soul Hall could challenge her?
No one!
Nian Ya waved her hand, “Stand down!”
The crowd quickly turned and left!
She didn’t choose to eliminate them all, as it was no longer necessary!
At that moment, Qing’er suddenly smiled, “We’re even now, right?”
Nian Ya laughed, “Yes!”
The two clever women exchanged a smile!
By bringing Ye Xuan here to cultivate, Nian Ya clearly knew it would provoke the Grand Elder, who would surely come to cause trouble!
She seized the chance to use Qing’er’s hand to eliminate him!
A win-win!
Then, Nian Ya spread her palm, and an ancient small tower appeared. She chanted a spell, and the tower floated above Ye Xuan’s head. The next moment, an ancient array appeared, and countless mysterious soul forces surged from it, pouring into Ye Xuan’s body!
Boom!
Ye Xuan’s body trembled violently!
Nian Ya was incredibly generous!
This was the Soul Array, designed to nurture souls, something even she could only use once every few hundred years!
Yet she gave this chance to Ye Xuan without hesitation!
With the Soul Array and the Soul Tree’s help, Ye Xuan’s soul aura grew at a terrifying speed.
Seeing this, Qing’er smiled, “Thank you!”
Nian Ya laughed, “No need for that!”
She looked at Ye Xuan, admittedly a bit shocked!
His baseline strength, especially his soul, was already top-tier in the Soul Hall. With their help, his soul would reach a terrifying level!
A chosen one!
Not simple at all!
Nian Ya smiled faintly. For her, this was a massive opportunity!
Getting both siblings to owe her a huge favor—what wasn’t that?
Then, Nian Ya suddenly laughed, “Little Qing, want to go explore somewhere else?”
Qing’er shook her head, “I’ll stay here to guard him!”
Nian Ya nodded slightly, “Alright! I’ll go handle some things!”
Qing’er smiled, “Go ahead!”
Nian Ya nodded and turned to leave.
At the spot, Qing’er looked at Ye Xuan, sitting cross-legged, a faint smile on her face.
…
Soul Hall.
In the main hall, as Nian Ya returned, two elders and a middle-aged man were waiting for her!
The middle-aged man was Jiang Ge, the current Hall Master of the Soul Hall!
The two elders were the Supreme Elders!
Nian Ya smiled, “Father and the two Supreme Elders, here to judge me?”
Jiang Ge looked at her, “You went too far this time!”
Nian Ya laughed, “What’s too far?”
Jiang Ge stared at her, “Letting an outsider kill our Grand Elder—is that not too far?”
Nian Ya chuckled, “Father, are you aware of what the Grand Elder did?”
Jiang Ge was silent.
Nian Ya continued, “Seems you are! Since you knew, why did you let him target me? Why? To sharpen me? Or to balance the Soul Hall’s internal powers?”
Jiang Ge looked at her, silent.
Nian Ya laughed, “Do you know who my friend, Little Qing, is?”
Jiang Ge frowned, “Who?”
Nian Ya laughed, “Don’t worry about who she is. Just know that everyone in the Soul Hall combined isn’t her match!”
Hearing this, Jiang Ge and the elders frowned!
Nian Ya smiled, “You know the Grand Elder’s strength, but he couldn’t even take one sword from her! So, do you think I’m bluffing?”
Jiang Ge said gravely, “Who is she?”
Nian Ya added, “Also, the man she brought is this generation’s chosen one, carrying great karma!”
Jiang Ge fell silent.
Nian Ya continued, “I made them owe me a huge favor, but the Grand Elder, for his own selfish reasons, nearly ruined it! Didn’t he deserve death?”
Jiang Ge looked at her, silent.
Nian Ya laughed, “Father, if you don’t want me to take over the Soul Hall, just say so. I won’t cling to the Hall Master position! But if you want me to have it, be sincere and stop with the nonsense! I have the ability to take the Soul Hall to greater heights, even into the Posuo Realm!”
Posuo Realm!
The three men’s expressions shifted!
That place was a special world created by the Great Dao Pen Master, where time flowed differently—one year there equaled one day outside!
A terrifying world!
But few forces could enter due to intense competition!
Many fought fiercely for a spot!
Jiang Ge said gravely, “Can you really lead the Soul Hall into the Posuo Realm?”
Nian Ya said, “There’s a great chance!”
The three exchanged glances. After a moment, Jiang Ge said, “Forget leading the entire Soul Hall—if you can enter it yourself, that’s a blessing! Then, you’ll be the Hall Master!”
Nian Ya smiled, “By then, do you think I’ll need it?”
With that, she turned and left.
In the hall, the three were silent.
…
Under the ancient tree, Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes. The moment he did, a terrifying soul energy erupted from him!
Boom!
Instantly, the surrounding space-time twisted under the force!
Ye Xuan took a deep breath, clenched his right hand, and spread his divine sense. In an instant, it covered countless star domains and universes!
At least ten times stronger than before!
Ten times!
Ye Xuan was thrilled!
This was unreal!
Qing’er walked to him, smiling, “How does it feel?”
Ye Xuan said excitedly, “Incredibly strong!”
Qing’er nodded slightly, “Your soul is much stronger now!”
Ye Xuan smiled, then took Qing’er into a void. He clenched his right hand forward, and instantly, countless star domains folded into a single line!
Seeing this, his lips curled into a smile!
With this sword strike, ordinary people couldn’t resist!
Qing’er said softly, “Did she teach you that?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
This folding technique was insanely powerful!
He didn’t dare use it casually—one swing, and it’d be an indiscriminate slaughter!
Qing’er smiled, “Want to learn mine?”
Ye Xuan quickly said, “Of course!”
Qing’er smiled faintly, then said, “I created a move called the Rebirth Sword Technique—one sword, one rebirth!”
With that, she swung her sword. Instantly, a massive white light, thousands of feet wide and long, appeared before them. Everything within it vanished!
Ye Xuan’s face grew serious!
He noticed not only this space-time was vanishing, but even super-space-time was disappearing!
Beyond that, he saw mysterious substances fading too!
Qing’er smiled, “That’s the Dark Realm space-time, the shadow side of super-space-time, untouchable by most. You’ll encounter it later. This Dark Realm holds terrifying dark forces, beyond what normal or super-space-time beings can resist! Of course, you can’t control it yet!”
Dark Realm space-time!
Ye Xuan said gravely, “If I learn your sword technique, can I destroy the Dark Realm’s forces?”
Qing’er nodded, “Yes! My Rebirth Sword Technique can destroy any space-time except the True Void World’s!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “The True Void World’s space-time?”
Qing’er nodded, “This technique can’t break that!”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then said, “I’ll learn it now!”
Qing’er smiled, “Alright!”
She pointed at his brow.
Boom!
Ye Xuan’s body trembled violently as countless pieces of information flooded in.
Moments later, he sat cross-legged, eyes closing slowly. Soon, a mysterious force emanated from him…
…
