His words were earnest, but even a fool could sense the underlying implications. Senior Brother felt somewhat aggrieved. Do you think I'm incompetent? If it were someone else, I would have already lashed out, but facing this person... Ye An had already left a psychological shadow on these junior siblings. They stood silently to the side. Unexpectedly, Daoist Grey Crane did not try to persuade further; he knew well enough about the abilities of his two disciples. He smiled and said,…-

"Take a look," said the Grey Crane Daoist, pointing at the two chess pieces on the table. Ye An focused his gaze. The Grey Crane Daoist touched the white piece with his hand, saying, "This represents you." Then he pointed at the black piece, "And this is your opponent." "Do these two have any connection?" Ye An furrowed his brows. The Grey Crane Daoist produced another pair of black and white chess pieces in his palm. Placing the white piece parallel to Ye An's, he said, "This is for Ji Qing…

Ye An didn't have the mood to think about who those two bastards blocking his path suddenly were. For some reason, even though he was only held up for over a minute, his desire to see Ji Qing surged even more. Arriving at his doorstep, he pushed it open. Stepping inside. "I'm back," Ye An spoke, then nervously looked around. Silence? Oh, right. At this time, she should be training in the basement. He hurried downstairs. But as a top martial artist, his hearing was naturally keen.…

Ye An was sure of it. Tan Que remained clueless, kept in the dark. These were all decisions made by the old men; it wasn't his place to intervene. So he didn't say anything, finishing his meal and heading back on the road promptly. Once off Earth, Ye An felt the universe grow colder. But thinking of what lay ahead warmed his heart. During this time, he hadn't lost touch with Ji Qing. She always asked if he might return early, recounting the mundane details of her day as if each was painfully…

Under the moonlight, Ye An sat on the grass with his head bowed. Suddenly, his body shook, his pupils trembled, and an indescribable bitterness surged within him. Because he now knew who Ah Ying was. His name was recorded in the textbooks, but it was only briefly mentioned, leaving a vague impression until now. This is how it was written: "As the coronation battle entered a white-hot phase, the enemy revealed their first trump card. Inspired by the gods, he appeared on the frontline of the…

The next day, Ye An once again faced off against Ah Ying on the grassy field. Ah Ying still wore a cheerful smile. But this time, Ye An chose to take the initiative, throwing a punch. Ah Ying used one hand to block with his scabbard while the other swung his blade, aiming straight for Ye An's abdomen. "I lose," Ye An murmured to himself, taking two steps back and saying, "Again." In the second round, Ah Ying began by flinging his scabbard. Ye An swiftly dodged to the side, but Ah Ying's…

In the days that followed, Ye An lay by the pond. Yet he wasn't idle; seizing the moment of fervor, he swiftly began practicing his boxing. Even though he had lost all his abilities as a cultivator, he didn't know if his practice would yield any results. But one thing was certain: no practice meant no results! He used the resistance of the pond water beneath the waterfall to practice his punches. Before him lay the cool, gently swaying verdant wilderness, where the black-clothed swordsman also…

The elderly man took down the tea leaves and started boiling water. As Ye An sat properly, neither side spoke, unsure of what to say. The hot water wasn't boiling yet. The old man looked at Ye An and smiled, asking, "Do you think your life so far has been bitter?" Ye An shook his head, saying, "I am very fortunate." The old man continued, "Despite losing close family members and facing many adversities, how can you call that fortunate?" Ye An's eyes revealed a trace of reminiscence before…

Before long, The spaceship began its descent, and from afar, Ye An could see a sapphire-blue planet. At a glance, it appeared to be a medium-sized planet, but for some reason, even from a distance, Ye An inexplicably felt a sense of tranquility. All inner anxieties and restlessness disappeared, as if all pressure ceased to exist. Ye An thought to himself, this feeling is like coming home. He took out the address information given to him by Lord Zhuque and glanced at it again. The name of…

After returning home with Ji Qing, Ye An silently ate the grilled skewers. Both seemed to have lost their appetite, heads bowed, minds occupied. In just five minutes, they finished their meal. Ye An looked up and said, "I might be very busy in the coming days." Ji Qing wiped her mouth with a napkin, nodded, and replied, "Me too." Then, they both got up and went back to their respective rooms. Different bedrooms, the same view outside the window, but similar expressions on their faces. Neither…
