“En? How so?” Jiang Yunhe asked in puzzlement.
Mo Yuntian smiled and said, “Do you know why Master sent me to the State of Qin?”
“Isn’t it because Hall Head Xiao heard that Ye Yuan has astonishing talent, that’s why he sent you here?” Jiang Yunhe said perplexedly.
“Haha, Master is the dignified Martial Hall Hall Head. There are many matters he needs to attend to every day, and he also has to cultivate. How would he have the energy to bother with the affairs of two geniuses from the secular world? Junior Apprentice Brother Ye is extraordinarily talented, so the sect sent Yao Qian over. But why would he make an unnecessary move like sending over Mo Yuntian?”
“Yeah. Putting it this way, it’s indeed a little strange!”
“Do you all know the history of that spirit artifact in Ye Yuan’s hands?”
Jiang Yunhe and Huyan Yong shook their heads at the same time. How would they know?
“That sword is called Canghua Sword. It’s the lifeblood spirit artifact of the previous, previous generation Martial Hall Hall Head, Lu Yan! And Ancestor Lu Yan is Master’s master! Tell me, how can he maintain his composure upon hearing the news of the Canghua Sword coming into being?” Mo Yuntian explained.
The pair came to a realization. Turns out that the sword in Ye Yuan’s hands had such an origin!
“Then how did Hall Head Xiao know that Ye Yuan has the Canghua Sword?” Jiang Yunhe asked in confusion.
Xiao Jian did not even pay attention to secular world geniuses, so how could he pay attention to what kind of weapon was wielded by a State of Qin’s genius?
Mo Yuntian gave a meaningful smile and said, “Speaking of that, it’s all thanks to the Su Family!”
“Su Family? What’s it got to do with them?”
“If my guess is correct, the Su Family members must have coveted the spirit artifact in Ye Yuan’s hands. That’s why they would inquire about the source of this sword. And Master just happened to find out about this matter and asked in detail, confirming that the spirit artifact in Ye Yuan’s hands is the Canghua Sword! After Master knew about this news, he was unbelievably agitated. Hence, he sent me here to the State of Qin. As Ancestor Lu Yan’s successor, Master naturally would not let him enter the Pill Hall. But he also didn’t think that so many things would actually happen in the State of Qin.”
“Su Yubai! Haha! The Su Family really lifted a stone to smash onto their own feet. It’s clear that Ye Yuan is indeed somebody with a great destiny. Nobody can stop his rising momentum!” Jiang Yunhe shook his head and said with a laugh.
He truly did not think that there was actually such an intricate story in between.
Su Yubai’s greed saved Ye Yuan instead. It was evident that everything was foreordained by heaven! Ye Yuan was not meant to die!
Mo Yuntian nodded and said, “Regardless where destiny and fate really exists, the sect has no reason to reject such a genius. Martial Uncle Sect Master, as well as many sect upper echelons, have not given up on their desire to return to the Northern Domain. Now that we can see hope for the sect, we naturally have to foster Junior Apprentice Brother Ye with all our power! I think that this ambition might not have been absent when Ancestor Lu Yan passed the Canghua Sword to Junior Apprentice Brother Ye!”
Chapter 213
Several days later.
Barely any student was seen around the Dan Wu Academy; almost all of the students gathered at the plaza.
Ye Yuan had already recovered. This also represented that he and Long Tang were going to leave the Dan Wu Academy and officially enter the sect!
Ye Yuan initially want to leave low-key, but Jiang Yunhe suggested to organize a grand sending off assembly.
After all, this was the greatest event in the State of Qin’s Dan Wu Academy in the past ten years. As the academy’s dean, he naturally felt honored because of this.
Ye Yuan did not wish to put a damper on Jiang Yunhe’s enthusiasm, so he agreed,
“I’ve long known that Ye Yuan was going to leave, but I didn’t think that this day would arrive so quickly!”
“Yeah, this fellow is too terrifying. Simply in a different world from the rest of us. Only a larger stage can better showcase his talent.”
“Ye Yuan entering the sect is something within expectations. But did you notice a strange phenomenon? Virtually all those who walked close with Ye Yuan remolded themselves completely!”
“Hearing you say this, it’s really true! Teacher Feng, oops, should be Teacher Nanfeng has already broken through to the Alchemy Grandmaster realm. Senior Apprentice Sister Nanfeng has already broken through to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm and became the number one on the Martial Roll. Although Senior Apprentice Brother Long isn’t that close with Ye Yuan, he himself also acknowledged that he could only make it through the Nine Heavens Road because of Ye Yuan. The most frightening is still Elder Huyan Yong. He actually broke through to the Crystal Formation Realm directly! Simply mind-blowing!”
“You missed out two other people! One is the rising new genius figure among the Earth rank students called Tang Yu. These few months, this Tang Yu advanced by leaps and bounds, breaking through from Fifth Level Essence Qi Realm all the way to Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm! I heard that he’s going to take part in the Earth Rank Advancement Test very soon to become a Heaven Rank student! And he is the person who got to know Ye Yuan earliest! Another is Ye Yuan’s father, Pavilion Lord Ye. Not only did Pavilion Lord Ye break through to the Second Level Crystal Formation Realm, he even broke through to middle-rank Alchemy Grandmaster! Could it be that Ye Yuan’s body has some magic?”
“Hearing you say this, I really regret it to death! If I knew it would be like this, I should have hugged Ye Yuan’s thigh tightly! For all we know, I might also be able to become a Heaven rank student now, or maybe even become a Martial Roll expert!”
“Keep dreaming!”
Ye Yuan’s rise could already be said to be a legend in the Dan Wu Academy.
Especially for those aristocrat students. Many of them knew that Ye Yuan went on a massacre in the capital and confronted a Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse face-on.
This courage and vigor, this strength, they could only look up to it in their lifetime.
Additionally, Huyan Yong had already succeeded Su Yubai’s position at this time and became the Disciplinary Hall’s First Elder!
Initially, with Huyan Yong’s age, he had the opportunity to enter the sect. But he still chose to stay in the academy to assist the dean all the way until the dean returned to the sect.
Ye Yuan knew that Huyan Yong was brought up by Jiang Yunhe, so did not say anything. But he secretly made a resolution to help Jiang Yunhe get the Purple Center Soul Incantation as soon as possible.
One had to say, Jiang Yunhe had been completely absorbed in being the dean.
Throughout the entire process, each and every one of the students was like on stimulants. They treated Long Tang and Ye Yuan as idols and were determined to become a sect disciple!
The power of a role model was boundless, especially the role models by the side of the students.
The sending off assembly was coming to a close. Jiang Yunhe was about to announce the conclusion when Long Tang who had kept silent the whole time opened his mouth to speak at this time.
He went in front of Ye Yuan and said seriously, “Ye Yuan, I knew that you would eventually surpass me one day. But I didn’t think that this day would come so quickly! Although I know that I’m not your match right now, I still wish to issue a challenge to you! I wonder if the agreed upon battle we had before is still counted?”
Towards Long Tang’s actions, Ye Yuan was also somewhat surprised.
Indeed, Long Tang’s current strength was already inadequate to threaten him. However, fighting with Long Tang was just exchanging pointers. Ye Yuan obviously could not bring out all of his cards like dealing with Su Yubai and Su Yulin.
However, regarding Long Tang’s fixed match, Ye Yuan naturally
had no reason to reject. Hence, he nodded and said, “It naturally counts! I’ve also been looking forward to this match with Senior Apprentice Brother Long!”
“Haha, now it should be me who’s calling you Senior Apprentice Brother!” Long Tang said with a loud laugh.
“Haha, Senior Apprentice Brother is indeed magnanimous. You actually gave away this number one seat so happily.” Facing Long Tang’s forthrightness, Ye Yuan was also affected by it.
Long Tang shook his hands and said, “Before this, I didn’t understand. But ever since watching you clear the Nine Heavens Road, I suddenly understood. This number one of the Martial Roll is actually the main culprit that was holding me back! The number one in the Dan Wu Academy; it’s not about feeling cold or lonely from reaching an extremely high realm, but merely a frog at the bottom of a well! Only by continuously surpassing myself, chasing after the paramount martial Dao, that’s what martial artists should do!”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Long’s comprehension is exceedingly high. Just base on this aspect, it’s already far surpassed most people! Come then, before heading for the sect, let us determine the number one on this Martial Roll!”
“Haha, come!”
The two of them were about to make a move when a silhouette shot up and stood in the middle of them.
Ye Yuan and Long Tang were stunned when they saw who it was. This person was none other than Wu Luochen!
Wu Luochen currently also broke through to the Third Level Spirit Condensation Realm and was officially ranked in the top five of the Martial Roll. In the Dan Wu Academy, that was an absolutely domineering existence.
“This isn’t right, Senior Apprentice Brother Long! Ye Yuan and my arranged battle comes first; how can you cut the queue? This fight, let me go first!” Wu Luochen said with a displeased face.
Ye Yuan was stupefied when he heard Wu Luochen. Such a long time without meeting him, Ye Yuan forgot that he still had an arranged battle with him.
It was just that with his current strength, Wu Luochen probably could not even receive a single move. Did this fellow really not even have this bit of self-awareness?
“Ye Yuan, don’t look at me with this sort of expression! I know that I already don’t have the qualifications to be your opponent. Even Senior Apprentice Brother Long most likely doesn’t have this qualification either. I just want to see how great the gap between us is. Then, I’ll head down that direction and continuously break through realms!” Wu Luochen said.
Towards Wu Luochen’s words, Long Tang did not refute anything.
He had also heard about the great battle in the capital. Ye Yuan’s foe was a Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse! How could he rival a Spirit Condensation Realm who could cause a Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse to be injured?
When Ye Yuan heard that, he snickered in his heart. This Wu Luochen was really a martial fanatic. But this person was obsessed until it was adorable.
Speaking of which, back then when dealing with Su Yishan, he owed him a favor.
Thinking up to here, Ye Yuan smiled serenely and said, “Fine, under these circumstances, I’ll only unleash one finger! If you can receive it, consider it my loss!”
“For real?” Wu Luochen asked disbelievingly.
Although he knew that Ye Yuan was very strong now, but to only use one finger to defeat him, wasn’t this a little arrogant?
“Yes!”
“Okay! I’ll let you see my, Wu Luochen’s, power!” Finishing, Wu Luochen figure burst forth, shooting towards Ye Yuan with extreme speed!
Ye Yuan smiled calmly. Using his finger as a sword, an abnormally horrifying sword intent was released from his fingertip!
Chapter 214
Sensing that horrifying sword intent, Wu Luochen face changed abruptly.
By the side, Long Tang’s expression also changed.
Wu Luochen instinctively wanted to dodge this attack, but it was futile.
Wu Luochen only felt his eyes blur and Ye Yuan already arrived in front of him while he did not react at all. He only saw a sharp sword continuously becoming bigger and bigger in his eyes!
Swoosh!
Ye Yuan’s sword finger stopped at Wu Luochen’s glabella. The sword intent which was originally surging till it was suffocating vanished with a trace all of a sudden as if it had never appeared before.
Drip!
A drop of sweat flowed down Wu Luochen’s forehead and dripped on the floor.
“I . . . I lost!” Wu Luochen said dryly.
“No way? Ye-Ye Yuan is already powerful to such an extent? Did you see how he made his move just now?”
“I completely didn’t see it! It was like he teleported in front of Wu Luochen and then Wu Luochen admitted defeat! Is this really the strength of a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist? We are on completely different levels than he is!”
“This is simply incomprehensible! Ye Yuan is clearly only Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm, while Wu Luochen is Third Level Spirit Condensation Realm. Even if Wu Luochen isn’t his match, then disparity should be this great, right? Wu Luochen basically couldn’t fight back at all! If that were a life and death match just now, Wu Luochen would be killed instantly!”
“This non-human being simply cannot be measured using common sense.”
That attack just now, the students did not even see how Ye Yuan made his move.
They were the same as Wu Luochen. They only felt a blur in front of their eyes, and Wu Luochen was defeated.
Mo Yuntian watched this scene and nodded to himself. He said to Jiang Yunhe, “Junior Apprentice Brother Ye’s attainments in Sword Dao is far above mine. That finger just now was wielded freely as he wished. When he unleashed his finger, sword qi billowed to the skies. When he kept away his finger, the clouds were thin and the breeze gentle. This kind of wielding heavy as if it were light is not something that a young man should have. If not for Junior Apprentice Brother Ye’s bone age is only around 15 years old, I might even suspect whether or not he’s an old monster who has been developing Sword Dao for hundreds of years!”
“Haha, yes! Ye Yuan is already like a crane among chickens in the academy. Even the number one on the Martial Roll, Long Tang, cannot even withstand a single blow in front of him. Even if he doesn’t enter the sect, being in the academy has lost all meaning,” Jiang Yunhe said smilingly.
Ye Yuan looked at Wu Luochen and said with a beam, “Senior Apprentice Brother Wu’s Dao Heart is firm. Truly praiseworthy! That finger just now, just take it as a parting gift that I give Senior Apprentice Brother Wu.”
Ye Yuan’s finger earlier did not use full strength. He was only demonstrating to Wu Luochen what was called concept!
Ye Yuan’s realm was beyond Wu Luochen’s wildest imaginations. He incorporated his own understanding towards Heavenly Dao in a very shallow manner into this finger. As for how much Wu Luochen could comprehend, it would depend on his fortune.
Even though it was only a very tiny portion, it was enough for Wu Luochen to use his entire life.
Wu Luochen’s entire body trembled when he heard this. His mind involuntarily recalled Ye Yuan’s finger just now, as if faintly grasping something, yet like not grabbing anything, akin to the moon’s reflection in the water.
Ye Yuan smiled lightly and did not interrupt Wu Luochen. Instead, he turned to Long Tang and said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Long, our turn.”
Who knew that Long Tang would shake his head instead and said, “No need to compete, I already know the distance between us. That finger just now, I simply have no way of cracking it. Also, I know that you did not use full strength! However, that finger just now is even more powerful than the concept I comprehended on the Nine Heavens Road. I also received no little benefits!”
The students were initially still looking forward to a great battle but did not think that it would actually conclude in such a manner.
From start to end, only Ye Yuan executed a finger, and the dust settled.
/> However, after the students dispersed, Wu Luochen remained at the plaza still, unmoving like a statue.
Every day, when people walked by this place, they would use curious eyes to size up Wu Luochen. But Dean instructed that no one was allowed to disturb him. Naturally, there would not be anybody who would go up and speak to him.
Just like that, Wu Luochen stood in the plaza for seven days!
After seven days, Wu Luochen suddenly lifted his head to the skies and gave a long howl. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed a punch, and it actually gave off the sound of dragons and tigers roaring.
Only to hear a boom, a stone lion in the plaza was disintegrated into dust by this punch of his through the air!
The students passing by suddenly saw this scene and were amazed by this.
Starting from that day forth, Wu Luochen would surpass Zuo Bugui without contest and became number one on the Martial Roll!
Of course, this was the afterward.
After the sending-off assembly, Ye Yuan returned to the capital and prepared to bid his parents farewell.
But after heading back to the capital, Ye Yuan did not see Ye Hang and wife. Instead, Manager Feng San gave him a letter. The letter was written in Ye Hang’s handwriting.
Ye Yuan opened the letter dubiously and started reading.
Yuan-er, forgive us for leaving without saying goodbye. In truth, Father did not tell you this whole time, but your mother and I are not people of the Southern Domain, but from the Northern Domain. These few years, Father has always been worried about your growth, so I suppressed the thoughts of returning to the Northern Domain. To think that you’d profit from the misfortune of being poisoned the previous time and could already grow to be a man that can take charge of a front within a few short months, Father is very gratified.
Now that you’ve already entered the sect and the State of Qin’s affairs has concluded, Father is already completely reassured to return to the Northern Domain. Your mother and I have to return to the Northern Domain because of some things. I’ve already handed the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion over to the Imperial Family to manage. 60% of all the income will be under your name. In addition, if you have any needs, you can raise it up to His Majesty. He will handle it. You just cultivate in peace in the Tranquil Cloud Sect. In the future, after your mother and I finished our matters, we’ll naturally come and look for you .
