Chapter 421: Encounter

Ye Guan started smiling while walking down the street. Sister Zhen had truly brought him many surprises. Fortunately, she was an easygoing individual, even though she was quite perverted.

Half an hour later, Ye Guan arrived at Xuanyuan Building. Su Zi had already left for somewhere else. He knew that she had come to Yanjing to take care of business. She had many things to handle, and they were all related to the contracts they had signed with the Gu Clan.

Just then, Xuanyuan Ling walked into the room.

Ye Guan said, "Miss Ling, I need your help with something."

"What is it?"

"I want to go to the Milky Way Academy."

"As a student?"

"It would be a waste of my talent if I became a student."

Xuanyuan Ling merely stared at him and blinked a few times.

Ye Guan smiled. "You're thinking that I'm just bragging, right?"

Xuanyuan Ling shook her head. "No, Mr. Ye, you’re mistaken. I know how powerful you are, and you are definitely strong enough to be a teacher."

Ye Guan fell into deep contemplation before muttering, "I don't mind being a student if all else fails."

He had no choice, as no one here had any idea of his identity.

"Give me a moment, Mr. Ye," Xuanyuan Ling said. She turned around and walked into a corner before making a call. After a few moments, she approached Ye Guan and said, "Let’s go and meet someone at the Milky Way Academy. You can become a teacher with his approval."

Ye Guan nodded. "All right."

Xuanyuan Ling said, "Let’s go."

The two went down the building and to the carpark.

Xuanyuan Ling decided to drive personally rather than call the driver over to drive them to the academy.

"Mr. Ye, are you going to the Milky Way Academy to look for someone?"

Ye Guan nodded. Cizhen had told him that Cishu and Cirou were both at the Milky Way Academy. Now that he was thinking about it, he couldn't help but wonder as to why they were at the Milky Way Academy.

Did they go there to study? Ye Guan shook his head. There was a high chance that they had gone to the Milky Way to experience the mortal world rather than to study.

Xuanyuan Ling seemed to have recalled something, and she said in a low voice, "Mr. Ye, we’ve received news that the people of the Future Clan are targeting you. They have been sending men everywhere to find out where you are."

The Future Clan again? Ye Guan frowned and told Xuanyuan Ling about the attack on him last night.

Xuanyuan Ling remarked, "You must have encountered a Master."

Ye Guan nodded. He was now pretty familiar with Blue Planet's power levels.

Ye Guan was too weak to beat a Master, but it was all because of the mysterious force suppressing him. If it weren't for the mysterious force, even a billion Masters wouldn't be his match; he could annihilate them with a flick of his sleeve.

However, Ye Guan knew that he had to take them seriously. After all, he still had to eventually face the cold and harsh reality. He had become nothing but a weakling after getting his cultivation sealed, and he couldn't underestimate anyone here.

Xuanyuan Ling said, "Mr. Ye, the Future Clan is difficult to handle, especially their ancestor Ying Qing. Her origins aren't simple at all. I heard that she was once the Vice Pavilion Master of the Guanxuan Universe’s Immortal Treasures Pavilion, which means that she is extremely powerful."

Ye Guan fell silent, and his expression turned gloomy.

Xuanyuan Ling continued, "Mr. Ye, you must have heard of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, right? I mean, you're from the stars beyond, after all."

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes, I've heard of them."

Xuanyuan Ling said, "I’ve heard that even the Guanxuan Academy has to show face to the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, so as the Vice Pavilion Master, Ying Qing must have a lot of authority and power. She retired not too long ago and has returned to the Milky Way, but she's still a force to be reckoned with."

Ye Guan didn't reply.

Xuanyuan Ling glanced sideways at him. She was about to say something when Ye Guan asked, "Can your Xuanyuan Clan directly contact Ying Qing?"

Xuanyuan Ling shook her head. "No. Our relationship with the Future Clan isn't that great."

Ye Guan nodded in acknowledgement and went silent.

Xuanyuan Ling hesitated briefly before saying, "Mr. Ye, why don’t I have someone follow you all the time for your protection?"

"That's tantamount to making an enemy out of the Future Clan? Are you not afraid of doing that?" Ye Guan asked.

"No!"

Ye Guan nodded. "Okay!"

Shuang Shuang opened her eyes. She carried her sword with her as she walked up to Ye Guan.

"Go ahead and choose your sword," Shuang Shuang said.

Ye Guan shook his head. "No need."

"Are you sure?" Shuang Shuang asked with narrowed eyes.

Ye Guan nodded.

Swoosh!

Shuang Shuang unsheathed her sword and slashed out, moving as fast as lightning.

A formidable aura burst out of her at the same time, revealing her status as an Eighth Stage expert! She moved so quickly that a deafening noise echoed in the wake of her attack.

Ye Guan remained calm in the face of Shuang Shuang's attack. He tilted slightly to avoid the attack. Shuang Shuang’s attack missed, and she was about to swing her sword once more when Ye Guan lunged forward and placed a finger on her forehead.

Ye Guan's knowledge of battle was deeper than Shuang Shuang—no, Ye Guan believed that he was invincible here when it came to knowledge of close-combat quarters!

As if to prove that, Ye Guan used just one move to subdue his enemy.

Elder Gu was stunned.

Shuang Shuang stared wide-eyed at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan retracted his finger and asked, "One more?"

Shuang Shuang thrust her sword toward Ye Guan’s forehead. The attack was extremely fast, and it even carried a bit of killing intent. However, Ye Guan's two fingers clamped the oncoming sword when it was a few inches away from his forehead. Then, he gently squeezed with his fingertips.

Hum!

A tremor ran through the sword and inundated Shuang Shuang's hands, forcing her to let go of her sword. Ye Guan then lightly tapped the blade, and the sword flipped over before flying toward Shuang Shuang, where it stopped a few inches away from the latter's forehead.

It was yet another defeat. Shuang Shuang was finally convinced of her defeat. She stared at Ye Guan and said, "I admit defeat."

Ye Guan nodded, and the sword fell to the ground with a mere thought on his end.

Ye Guan then turned to look at Elder Gu.

Elder Gu asked, "May I know the stage of your cultivation?"

Stage? Ye Guan turned to Xuanyuan Ling.

Xuanyuan Ling hurriedly said, "He’s a Master!"

A Master?! Elder Gu was astonished, but he recovered quickly and said, "Then, he is definitely qualified to become a teacher. I’ll recommend him right away."

With that, Elder Gu turned around and left.

Ye Guan stared at Xuanyuan Ling and smiled. "Thank you, Miss Ling."

Xuanyuan Ling shook her head and said, "The credit belongs only to you. You're strong, and it's the reason you've qualified. Otherwise, my recommendation would have been useless."

"Are you really a Master?" Shuang Shuang chimed in.

"I guess you can say that!" Ye Guan replied with a smile.

"They say Sword Dao Masters have their own Sword Intent; why did I not see you use yours?" Shuang Shuang asked.

"I just didn’t feel like using it," Ye Guan replied.

Shuang Shuang frowned at his answer.

Ye Guan ignored Shuang Shuang and turned to Xuanyuan Ling.

"Let’s go shopping outside," he said.

Xuanyuan Ling readily agreed. "Sure."

The two left the arena, and Ye Guan finally had time to look around. He had to admit that the Milky Way Academy was built to be stunning. It was expansive, with lawned grass everywhere; one could find many students sitting on the grass while reading books or chatting with each other.

Ye Guan started smiling. He believed that a school had to look exactly like this. The Guanxuan Academy was a school as well, but the students there were focused on nothing but cultivation, which made it look pretty dull when compared to the Milky Way Academy.

Of course, Ye Guan didn't find it strange. The Guanxuan Universe was filled with many dangers and bitter struggles, after all. People there were generally ruthless, and if one wanted to live longer, one needed enough strength.

Ye Guan's wandering eyes landed on a young man and a young woman. to his right. He froze, and his eyes instantly welled up with tears. Before he realized it, he was already running toward them.
