115: Chapter 114 One Year

Listening to the words beside his ear.

Ye Xiu couldn't help but retort, "Since you remember the friendship from back then, why still put on airs?"

As the words fell.

Xing Mu's cold voice rang out once again.

"Ye Xiu, do you want to die?"

"Hehe... misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we are at most acquaintances."

Ye Xiu laughed awkwardly.

Then he said seriously, "Ever since you recovered your memories, you've become a bit unlike a person. If one day I achieve the [Taboo Emperor] Realm, I will definitely Seal your current memories, allowing you to live like a normal person."

"Are you threatening me?"

"Threatening? You could say that."

"Hehe... you certainly have guts, but your strength isn't as formidable as your words."

Xing Mu was so angry she laughed.

As her words spread, the entire Imperial Court was shrouded in a chilling coldness.

"What's going on? Who provoked the Star Emperor?"

"Shut your mouth, do you want to die?"

In the Imperial Court, the murmurs had only just begun before they were immediately stopped by those around them.

Right now was the day of the Empress's coronation.

The Human Race Heavenly Sovereigns, Supremes, and Sages of the Imperial Court were all in the city.

If some die-hard loyalists heard them, they would likely be accused of discussing the Empress.

That would be an unjust death.

The seven Heavenly Sovereigns in the city were also at a loss.

They, like the Cultivators in the city, didn't know what had happened at this critical moment to cause their Empress to display such cold emotions.

The Empress was bloodthirsty.

In order to build this prosperous Imperial Court.

More than half of the Realms that had connected to the Main World in advance had been completely wiped out.

In the coming tidal changes, who knows how many more Realms would be wiped out one by one.

As the saying goes, accompanying a ruler is like accompanying a tiger.

The seven Heavenly Sovereigns right now felt exactly this way.

Perhaps in the entire Imperial Court, only Kong Xuan would not feel this way.

After all, as the Empress's sharpest blade.

Kong Xuan's fierce reputation in the heavens was likely known even to a three-year-old child.

On Xingluo Mountain.

Ye Xiu stopped speaking.

He went into the small hut, found all the tea leaves Xing Mu had planted, put them away, and then returned to his room to sleep quietly.

After reaching the [Void Imperial Realm], one basically no longer needed to sleep.

However, many Cultivators still chose to sleep to restore their spirit and energy.

As for Ye Xiu at this Realm.

Sleeping was more of a hobby; even if he went without sleep for endless years, he still wouldn't experience any discomfort.

After blocking out all perception.

Ye Xiu's consciousness quickly fell into endless darkness.

This boundless darkness was somewhat like the Sea of Consciousness in his brain, and somewhat like the endless void after space shattered.

Apart from pitch blackness, nothing else existed.

He emptied his consciousness.

And gradually entered a long-lost dream.

"Hey, Ye Xiu, you bastard, who are you calling a divine charlatan?"

"Hey, Brother Ye, the teacher is here, hurry and log off."

"Minister..."

It felt like familiar voices were calling out to him beside his ear.

Ye Xiu was very tired.

He ignored everything ringing in his ears and slept quietly in the small hut, with no intention of waking up.

Time passed day by day.

A month later, when Ji Xingyue arrived at Xingluo Mountain again and saw Ye Xiu in this state, she was slightly stunned.

"General Ye is truly tired."

She sat quietly by the bed, waiting silently for Ye Xiu to wake up.

As time passed.

Ye Xiu seemed to have entered a deep dream.

He had returned to the academy.

On the empty playground, he was teaching the new students move by move.

Fatty Wang walked over from the distance, his face full of excitement. Behind him followed a stunning woman dressed in ancient palace attire.

"Brother Ye, a new student wants to join our Martial Arts Department, what do you think?"

Ye Xiu looked at the girl in palace attire and said in surprise, "Student, learning martial arts isn't dancing. Dressing like that, are you playing role-play?"

"My attire does not affect my ability to Cultivate. If you don't believe me, watch."

As the girl spoke, she earnestly struck a pose.

After finishing a set of vigorous boxing techniques, everyone present cheered loudly.

"Damn, that's really impressive."

Fatty Wang winked at Ye Xiu, the meaning self-evident.

Just then.

A crisp voice came from not far away.

"Hey, student, do you practice the Dao?" Liu Qingyan was wearing a Daoist robe, looking somewhat out of place walking through the school.

The girl looked at the suddenly appearing Liu Qingyan, a flash of surprise appearing in her eyes.

She smiled and refused, "No need. Actually, I have dabbled in Daoist arts, so there is no need to study them further."

Normally, upon hearing this polite refusal, most people would exchange pleasantries and then leave.

But Liu Qingyan was different, "Hey, you know Daoist arts? Then you really must join our Dao Cultivation Department."

After speaking, Liu Qingyan turned her head and directly glared at Ye Xiu.

"Hey, Ye Xiu, you bastard, did you recruit her because you saw she was a pretty young girl and had some ulterior motives?"

Ye Xiu's face darkened, "Divine Charlatan Liu, if you keep nagging, don't blame me for kicking you out."

"Heh... Bastard Ye, why don't you try kicking me out?"

The two of them went back and forth, arguing for a long time.

The girl in palace attire watched quietly from the side, not interrupting them.

After a long while.

She softly said, "General, it is time to wake up."

"General?"

A trace of confusion appeared in Ye Xiu's eyes.

Then, this confusion gradually cleared, and everything around him disappeared.

In the dark environment, only the figures of Ye Xiu and the girl remained.

"Young Miss Xingyue, is it time?"

"Calculating the time, a year has already passed. I had no choice but to enter the General's consciousness; please do not blame me."

"Hehe... it's fine, it was my oversight."

As the words fell.

In the small hut.

Ye Xiu, lying on the bed, opened his eyes.

Looking at Ji Xingyue sitting by the bed, he gave a wry smile, "I've made a fool of myself in front of you, Young Miss Xingyue."

"General, you jest. How could I not envy the life of an ordinary person?"

Ye Xiu stood up.

He tidied his somewhat disheveled clothes slightly, then said, "Let's go. If it weren't a critical moment, you wouldn't have woken me up."

Ji Xingyue nodded.

Following a ripple in space.

The two of them vanished instantly from the small hut.
