Chapter 67: Returning to the Cherry Blossom Forest, Seeing A Yin
A few days later, the Imperial Fighting Team returned to the Tiandou Royal Academy. From afar, they saw a familiar figure standing at the academy entrance—Guyuena.
She stood quietly at the academy entrance as always, her silver hair like a waterfall, her purple eyes like stars, her posture upright, and her temperament cold and aloof. Her gaze was fixed on the distance, as if waiting for something.
Yu Tianheng and the others couldn't help but sigh at this sight.
"Junior Sister Guyuena is truly persistent, waiting for someone here every day. I wonder who she is waiting for." Shi Mo scratched his head, his tone filled with confusion.
Shi Mo nodded and chimed in, "Indeed. I heard that quite a few noble sons wanted to strike up a conversation with her, only to be beaten down and thrown far away. Her strength is simply greater than ours, the seniors."
Dugu Yan pursed her lips, her tone carrying a hint of teasing, "She is so formidable; I wonder who could catch her eye. However, looking at her like this, she must be waiting for someone important."
Yufeng said with a grin, "Perhaps she's waiting for her sweetheart! Someone who can make Junior Sister Guyuena wait like this must be no simple person."
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng smiled slightly and said nothing more. He had some faint guesses in his heart, but he dared not be certain.
Just then, Guyuena's eyes suddenly brightened, and a faint smile appeared on her otherwise cold face. Her gaze passed over the crowd and landed straight on Zhexian, who was walking at the very back.
"Teacher, you've returned," Guyuena said softly, her tone carrying a hint of joy.
Yu Tianheng and the others were stunned upon hearing this.
"Teacher? The person Junior Sister Guyuena is waiting for... is actually Teacher Zhexian?!" Aosiluo widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
Yufeng also opened his mouth wide and muttered, "No wonder she waits here every day; it turns out she was waiting for Teacher..."
Dugu Yan pursed her lips, her tone tinged with jealousy, "Teacher is truly popular; even Junior Sister Guyuena is so attentive to him."
Ye Lingling said with a smile, "Teacher is so formidable, it's only natural that he's popular!"
Hearing Guyuena's voice, Zhexian paused his steps slightly, looked up at her, and replied in a flat tone, "Mm, I'm back."
Guyuena smiled slightly, walked to Zhexian's side, and whispered, "Teacher, can we eat together later?"
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng and the others couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion. They had not expected that the usually cold-as-ice Guyuena would be so respectful, even showing a hint of dependence, in front of Zhexian.
Tianmeng Bingcan, lying lazily on Zhexian's shoulder, glanced at Guyuena and teased, "Yo, to think such a pretty little girl likes the Great God."
Hearing this, Guyuena gave Tianmeng Bingcan a cold, indifferent look, her tone icy, "Who are you?"
Tianmeng Bingcan shook its head triumphantly, its tone filled with arrogance, "Brother is a Million Year Soul Beast, Tianmeng Bingcan! How about it? Are you intimidated by Brother's aura?"
Hearing this, a flash of surprise crossed Guyuena's eyes, but she quickly returned to calm. She said indifferently, "So it's just an ice silkworm."
Guyuena's eyes flickered with something strange; she clearly sensed the vast power contained within this ice silkworm's body.
But the ice silkworm clan of the Extreme North had almost no combat ability. It could be said that all the energy inside this fellow was completely useless.
If only...
Guyuena pondered to herself, a faint smile playing on the corners of her lips.
Seeing Guyuena so composed, Tianmeng Bingcan felt a bit bored, pursed its lips, and said no more.
After a brief chat.
Yu Tianheng and the others dispersed to begin their own cultivation plans.
After returning to his room, Yu Tianheng immediately took out the drop of Lightning Tribulation Liquid bestowed by Zhexian, sat cross-legged, and began to absorb the massive energy contained within it.
The others went to the Arena for actual combat training.
Meanwhile, Guyuena followed behind Zhexian and asked softly, "What are your plans next?"
Zhexian stopped, looked up into the distance, and a deep light flashed in his eyes. He said indifferently, "I intend to return to the Star Dou Great Forest to handle some old business."
Hearing this, a flash of excitement crossed Guyuena's eyes, and she said softly, "I will go with you."
Zhexian turned his head slightly to look at Guyuena, his tone still flat, "Why exactly are you staying by my side?"
"You obtained the inheritance of the God of Destruction?"
Guyuena did not answer Zhexian's question, but instead stared at Zhexian's forehead, where that purple scepter was faintly emitting light.
Zhexian nodded indifferently; it was only natural that the Silver Dragon King, who should also be from the so-called God Realm, would recognize the God of Destruction.
"The two God Kings, Destruction and Life, are inseparable. How could Destruction pass his god position to you alone?"
Guyuena frowned, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
Could it be that something went wrong in the God Realm?
However, Zhexian did not explain anything to her.
He then slowly left the place and headed in the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Guyuena stomped her feet in anger, gritted her teeth, and followed him anyway.
A few days later.
Somewhere in the Star Dou Great Forest.
This was a cherry blossom forest where pink petals drifted down like rain, and the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance.
This cherry blossom forest had once been the most tranquil and peaceful place in the Star Dou Great Forest, but now it faintly exuded a hint of killing intent.
Zhexian and Guyuena stood on a cherry blossom tree, their eyes fixed on the Blue Silver Grass about one meter tall in front of them.
"This is a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast, the Blue Silver Emperor?"
As the Silver Dragon King, Guyuena naturally recognized the origin of this Soul Beast.
But why was this Blue Silver Emperor's aura so weak? It didn't look like the aura a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast should have at all.
However, the branches and leaves of this Blue Silver Grass were lush, emitting a faint blue light, and the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees seemed to have been nourished by it, growing exceptionally vigorously.
This Blue Silver Grass was none other than the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast, the Blue Silver Emperor, also known as A Yin, whose life essence had been extracted by Zhexian over a decade ago.
After years of growth, its life essence was slowly recovering.
At this moment, A Yin's branches and leaves swayed gently, as if waiting for something.
In its consciousness, a familiar figure faintly emerged—the man in white who had stopped in this cherry blossom forest over a decade ago.
"You... you've returned?" A trembling voice echoed in A Yin's consciousness, carrying a hint of fear.
Zhexian stood on the cherry blossom tree, watching A Yin with a calm gaze, his eyes without a ripple. He said indifferently, "Over a decade has passed, and your life essence has recovered quite well."
A Yin's branches and leaves trembled slightly, and the voice in her consciousness carried a hint of fear and anger: "You... what do you want to do again? Do you still want to extract my life essence and blood?"
Zhexian shook his head slightly, his tone remaining indifferent: "Your essence and blood no longer have the slightest value to me."
