YM778.TV Chapter 303: Talk About It Next Time
Ye Guan was surprised. He didn\'t expect that his father would ask for such a thing.
It was a welcome surprise because his aunt was an extremely powerful supreme elite. Ye Guan felt safe staying around such a powerful supreme elite. In fact, Ye Guan felt that he and his aunt could defeat even the Sword Master.
The Sword Master shook his head and laughed in the face of the plain-skirt lady\'s silence. They were siblings, so it wasn\'t that difficult for him to deduce her thoughts.
The Sword Master grabbed her hand and said gently, “Qing’er, I don’t feel at ease about the idea of letting someone else take him there. Do me this favor once, will you?”
The plain-skirt lady nodded lightly and agreed. “Okay!”
She would never say no to any of his requests. In fact, she would kill herself without hesitation so long as the Sword Master demanded it. Of course, the same was true for the Sword Master.
The plain-skirt lady suddenly asked, “How long should I take care of him?”
The Sword Master pondered briefly before saying, “Until he becomes a Great Sovereign. What do you think?”
The plain-skirt lady glanced sideways at Ye Guan before saying, “Okay.”
The Sword Master grinned. He looked at Ye Guan and said, “Listen to your aunt and focus on cultivating!”
Ye Guan nodded repeatedly as if he were a chicken pecking rice. “I will!”
The Sword Master chuckled, but he didn\'t say any more words before disappearing into thin air with his hand holding Qin Guan\'s hand.
The wedding was over, so the crowd had dispersed.
Soon, Ye Guan, Nalan Jia, and the plain-skirt lady were left all alone.
The plain-skirt lady stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, “I’ll give you half an hour to consummate your marriage. Hurry up.”
Ye Guan had no idea what to say.
…
Meanwhile, the Sword Master and Qin Guan were strolling among the stars in a certain corner of the vast expanse.
Qin Guan asked, “You’re trying to prevent a war from breaking out?”
"I just have to stop Qing\'er from making a move," the Sword Master said with a nod before explaining, "Even if Father and Big Brother spar with each other, they won\'t end up fighting to the death because their goal is to kill Qing\'er, or perhaps they want to die at Qing\'er\'s hands."
Qin Guan asked, “Is it because she defeated them at the time?”
The Sword Master nodded.
“I believe Lady Qing’er saw through your intentions,” Qin Guan remarked.
"I agree." The Sword Master smiled and said, “She’s so smart, so—”
The Sword Master caught himself in time and shook his head before saying, "No, I think she just doesn\'t want to say no to me."
"You know it\'s not a long-term solution, right?” Qin Guan asked.
The Sword Master nodded lightly and said, “Let\'s just keep on buying time and cross the bridge when we get there.”
Worry flashed past Qin Guan’s eyes as she said, “I’m just worried that she\'ll weaken our Little Guan’s Dao Heart.”
The Sword Master laughed and reassured her, “I don’t think that will happen. Our little brat\'s head between his shoulders is pretty good, and I think he has matured enough. Actually, I\'m confident that Qing’er will assuage his arrogance.”
Qin Guan rolled her eyes at him and said, “That\'s rich coming from someone who\'s exceedingly arrogant and boastful. So what if he’s arrogant? I don’t think there’s something wrong with that.”
The Sword Master chuckled. It seemed his wife cared more about his son than him.
Well, every parent throughout the vast expanse would have the same attitude as Qin Guan toward their children.
…
Ye Guan and Nalan Jia were sitting on the bed while facing each other.
Ye Guan lifted Nalan Jia\'s red veil, revealing her beautiful face underneath.
Nalan Jia\'s beauty had always been unparalleled, and the variety of emotions shown in her demeanor, such as shyness, anticipation, and nervousness, made her look even more alluring and charming.
Ye Guan\'s heart skipped a beat, and his blood started boiling in excitement.
Nalan Jia noticed Ye Guan\'s rough breathing and muttered, “Ye Guan, you—”
Ye Guan pulled her into a tight embrace, interrupting her sentence.
Nalan Jia\'s ears and face grew hot and red; she knew what he wanted to do.
“Ye Guan, wait, I have something I have to tell you—”
Ye Guan interrupted her with a trembling voice. “Let’s talk about it next time…”
What happened next could be easily deduced…
…
A few days later, Ye Guan left Nanzhou with the plain-skirt lady.
Together, they headed toward the Chaotic Star World.
Ye Guan had been in ecstasy over the past three days. His plain-skirt aunt only gave him an additional thirty minutes, but Ye Guan begged for an extra three days. He had already been given an inch, so he would definitely get a beating if he were to demand for a mile.
Ye Guan glanced sideways at the plain-skirt lady and found that she was wearing a plain skirt that made her look modest and elegant at the same time. Of course, the aura she was giving off made her appear withdrawn, but she had always been like that. Ye Guan already knew that she didn\'t particularly enjoy talking.
Ye Guan asked, “Aunt, Can we go somewhere else first?"
The plain-skirt lady stared quietly at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan felt a bit uneasy in the face of her calm gaze. For some reason, the plain-skirt lady\'s gaze made Ye Guan feel as if he were naked. He felt like there was nothing he could hide from the plain-skirt lady.
The plain-skirt lady was quiet, but she didn\'t immediately reject his request. Ye Guan found courage from somewhere and said, “Aunt, I want to go to the Stone Village.”
The plain-skirt lady turned, and her gaze pierced the depths of the vast expanse. Of course, she was quiet, and her thoughts were impossible to deduce.
Ye Guan heaved a sigh of relief.
He could somehow feel that there was something on her mind.
Ye Guan enlisted the mysterious lady\'s help for them to find their way to Stone Village. Ye Guan wanted to travel through spacetime, but the plain-skirt lady grabbed his shoulder, and they were engulfed by a white light.
Upon recovering his vision, Ye Guan saw that they were standing next to a river. He looked around and saw mountains with peaks as sharp as swords piercing the clouds.
A village composed of houses made out of stones could be seen a kilometer away from them. The village was large, and there were tens of thousands of homes inside of the village\'s walls.
For some reason, Ye Guan could hear deafening explosions from the village.
The houses inside the village alone told Ye Guan that they were staring at none other than the Stone Village.
Ye Guan and the plain-skirt lady walked slowly toward the village.
A powerful aura abruptly swept toward them.
The plain-skirt lady frowned. She pinched her fingers together and was about to take action when the mysterious lady suddenly appeared in front of them. She stared in the direction of the Stone Village and shouted, “I’m one of you!”
The mysterious lady didn\'t dare to let the plain-skirt lady make a move. She was afraid that the plain-skirt lady would annihilate the entire Stone Village if she were allowed to make a move.
Fortunately, the powerful aura vanished.
It seemed someone had recognized the mysterious lady\'s aura.
The mysterious lady turned to look at Ye Guan and the plain-skirt lady. “Let’s go!”
Ye Guan nodded, and they started walking into Stone Village. Ye Guan instantly noticed many powerful auras in the village, and some of the auras clearly belonged to Great Sovereigns.
He looked into the distance and saw a group of young men standing in a half-squat while waving their arms around. The fist force coming from their fists made the air in front of them tremble beneath the combined power of their fists.
Ye Guan understood it just then. The deafening explosions earlier had come from their fists. Ye Guan stared deeply at them and saw that their auras were strong even though their cultivation bases weren\'t that high.
Their gazes were sharp, and their killing intent was surprisingly powerful and dense.
A tall middle-aged man was standing in front of them. His back was as straight as a pencil, and his arms were folded in front of his chest.
He swept his fierce eyes across the youths in the clearing, and his voice boomed powerfully as he said, “Martial arts is like building a tall building. A strong foundation is absolutely necessary. If your foundation is weak, you\'ll eventually collapse.
"Hence, your foundation has to be strong and firm, and it can be done by strengthening your foundation while you\'re still young. The better your foundation is, the further you can go in the future.”
“Sir, yes, sir!” the young men shouted.
Just then, a young man raised his right hand and said, “Martial Instructor, sir! I have a question!”
The tall middle-aged man looked at him and asked, “What is it?”
The young man cupped his fist and asked, “When can I go to the True Universe?”
The tall middle-aged man chuckled and said, “What? You already want to go to the True Universe?”
"Yes," the young man said with a nod before explaining, “I heard that Ye Guan of the Guanxuan Universe is an extremely talented individual. At eighteen years old, he\'s already strong enough to kill Divine Sovereigns. He\'s widely acclaimed to be the most talented person throughout this vast expanse, but I\'m not convinced.
"I won\'t be convinced until I fight him!"
Ye Guan cast his gaze on the young man. The young man was an Immortal Realm cultivator; the Immortal Realm was just one cultivation base away from Ye Guan\'s current realm—Earth Immortal Realm.
Ye Guan deduced that the young man was a force to be reckoned with.
The tall middle-aged man laughed heartily and said, “It’s a great thing that you have the courage to challenge him. However, I want you to know that you should never underestimate him.
"He has single-handedly made his way into the True Universe by killing a myriad of young talents. He is unbelievably strong, so I don\'t want you to underestimate him."
Despite the tall middle-aged man\'s words, the young man remained indignant.
“Is Ye Guan really that powerful, Martial Instructor, sir?"
The tall middle-aged man nodded and asked back, “Why do you think our True Universe is so wary of him?”
With that, the tall middle-aged man swept his gaze across the youths in front of him and said, “Don\'t get me wrong, our True Universe is extremely strong. However, we are not invincible. The vast expanse\'s size is beyond our imagination, so there\'ll always be people out there who are stronger than you.
"Once you\'re out there, I want you to lower your head instead of being too full of yourself. I\'ve seen too many people die due to their arrogance.”
The youths clenched their fists tightly and didn\'t say a word.
The tall middle-aged man walked up to the young man and said with a smile, "The True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe are archenemies, but we have to admit that the Guanxuan Universe also has powerful supreme elites.
"For example, Ye Guan is almost unrivaled among the younger generation of our True Universe. It\'s exactly because of that fact that all of you will have to work even harder. Of course, it\'s all for the sake of the True God.”
The young man nodded and said, “I understand.”
"You should go on, then,” the middle-aged man said.
With that, the youths continued to cultivate.
Ye Guan took one last glance at them before walking into the distance with the plain-skirt lady. However, the mysterious lady stayed outside of the pagoda rather than returning to the world inside the pagoda.
The mysterious had done it on purpose, as no one could pay the price of provoking the plain-skirt lady. In other words, prevention was better than cure, especially when against the plain-skirt lady.
Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Senior, do you know where she is?”
The mysterious lady replied, “Just walking down this street.”
Ye Guan nodded, and he was starting to feel a bit anxious.
Will Ba Wan remember me? Honestly, he had no idea.
“You wild brat!" someone shouted from somewhere, "You’ve come to steal food again! I\'m sure you already know, but I\'m going to repeat it again. Your appetite is too big for anyone to satisfy. You\'re going to drive just about anyone bankrupt!"
Ye Guan turned and saw a young woman running out of a stone house.
The young woman was hugging a sack of sweet potatoes while running away.
“Uncle Lin, I really am starving. Once I\'m done with these sweet potatoes, I won’t eat any more sweet potatoes for my next meal!” the young woman exclaimed.
Ye Guan froze and stood rooted to the spot upon seeing the young woman.
