127: Chapter 126 I will personally sweep away all enemies for her

As Xing Mu's cold words rang out.

Ye Xiu let out a soft sigh, and then his tone shifted, carrying a hint of assertiveness.

He spoke up, "What if I must have it?"

"Heh... Ye Xiu, do you know what that implies? Are you certain you want to persist in your own way?"

Xing Mu's words grew several degrees colder.

"Heh... That thing originally belonged to my Great Xia. If your Imperial Court tries to take it by force, then it is war."

Faced with such a tough stance.

Xing Mu actually laughed. "Your confidence is quite strong, but your strength doesn't quite allow for it. The matter of Luck can be returned to you, but that little bride of yours probably won't have such good Luck."

Little bride?

Ye Xiu was slightly stunned, then immediately thought of Ji Xingyue. Clearly, Xing Mu had been listening to their entire previous conversation.

He remained silent for a long while.

Only then did he speak seriously, "When I reach the Supreme Realm, I shall naturally sweep away all enemies on the path ahead for her."

"Heh... Sweep away everything? Do you have any idea how terrifying the future enemies are? Have you ever seen those existences? No, you know nothing; you are merely possessed by blind confidence."

"So what?"

"Don't think that because you've seen a few broken Supreme Realm experts, you know the combat power of that level. Throughout the endless ages, children of Luck like you have appeared too many times, but how many have actually stepped into the Supreme Realm?"

Faced with Xing Mu's mockery.

Ye Xiu did not argue much. The facts were indeed so, but as the leader of Great Xia,

He could not evade the responsibilities bestowed by this era.

Even if the path ahead was arduous.

Even if the future was a sea of blood, he would still protect this hard-won peace amidst the coming great war.

Seeing that Ye Xiu was ignoring her,

Xing Mu snorted coldly.

She spoke again: "You owe the Imperial Court. This Princess will not let you die so early, but sometimes, do not keep testing certain people's bottom lines. That is seeking your own death."

"Whatever. In another hundred years, I will perform the Fengshan Sacrifice to the Heavens. At that time, I hope you won't come to cause trouble."

"You carry the Karma of my Imperial Court. Rest assured, no one would dare to provoke this Princess's bad Luck."

Hearing the non-sequitur answer,

Ye Xiu frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Xing Mu, when you were at your peak, did you achieve the Honored Position?"

"Honored Position? No. Those old fellows hide too deep. Without killing them, one cannot obtain the Honored Position." Regret seeped through Xing Mu's words.

In the silence,

Ye Xiu suddenly said, "Your birthday happens to be the day I am crowned King. Are you interested in coming to observe the ceremony?"

"Heh..."

Xing Mu laughed.

Ending the conversation.

Ye Xiu retracted his gaze from the Main World and turned to look toward the endless Void Realm.

There, an old Daoist riding an ox was looking toward him.

Laozi?

He wanted to speak,

But found that the old Daoist had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He shook his head slightly.

The dharma-ending age was not without peerless figures. Even when the world had not yet recovered, there were still peerless figures like Laozi, Zhang Daoling, and Zhang Sanfeng.

Although these people were not like him and Ji Xingyue,

Who were children of the era.

But from the Taichu Era to the Ancient Era,

Throughout these endless ages, there were likely many who achieved the Supreme Realm by relying on terrifying talent.

Laozi, Zhang Daoling, Zhang Sanfeng—these peerless prodigies of the dharma-ending age would very likely achieve the Supreme Realm if given enough time.

Especially Laozi.

Even with Ye Xiu's current level, he could not deduce the height of the other's strength in that brief gaze just now.

After staring into the endless Void Realm for a while,

Ye Xiu suddenly remembered that he had actually taken an apprentice.

The Sun Divine Physique.

After so many years, her strength shouldn't be too bad, right?

...

...

On Xingluo Mountain.

Chu Meng had already grown into a sixteen-year-old girl.

As Ye Xiu's prestige grew day by day, she, the only apprentice of the King of Great Xia, became the focus of everyone's attention.

Although she possessed the Sun Divine Physique, without a famous Revered Master's guidance and having to grope her way through cultivation alone, she was not as good as some prodigies of her generation.

"Stinky Revered Master, it's been six years and you haven't come back once to visit."

Chu Meng gnawed on a pig's trotter in her hand, complaining with great indignation.

Just then.

Ye Xiu's indifferent voice rang out beside her: "Not bad. After only six years, you have already reached the [Void Imperial Realm]. The Sun Divine Physique is indeed powerful."

"Revered Master?"

Chu Meng's mouth was covered in grease, and she was very shocked. Looking at Ye Xiu, who had already arrived by her side, she was so excited she didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu chuckled.

He flicked his apprentice's little head with his finger.

The Power of the Radiant Sun turned into a torrent, directly beginning to clear her Bloodline and guiding the appearance of the Dao of Supreme Yang.

After doing all this.

He then spoke, "Little girl, working behind closed doors is not the correct path. If there's something you don't understand and your Revered Master isn't around, you can go to the Qingcang Daoist Sect and ask Master Zhang."

Feeling the changes in the Dao of Rules,

Surprise showed in Chu Meng's eyes. She giggled, "It's not like I don't have a Revered Master. Why should I go ask those old Daoists?"

Old Daoists?

Ye Xiu showed a helpless expression: "You were full of praise for Master Zhang back then. How did he become an 'old Daoist'?"

"Tch, it's those guys from the Qingcang Daoist Sect. They come to spar every now and then. It's annoying."

There was a hint of anger on Chu Meng's small face.

Clearly, she had suffered quite a bit of frustration over these years.

In the bickering between the younger generation, the older generation would not really interfere. As the only successor of the King of Great Xia, Chu Meng was naturally targeted by many arrogant juniors.

The people behind these juniors held no small status.

To this,

Ye Xiu could only give a bitter smile.

He turned to look at the small hut. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke: "Pack your things. Revered Master is taking you to Yanjing. We won't be coming back here again."

"Leaving? Isn't this the place where Revered Master and Mistress lived?"

Chu Meng was somewhat dazed.

Over these years, she was no longer that little girl who knew nothing.

As she learned more about her Revered Master's deeds, although she didn't know who the Mistress who originally lived here was, she had heard from the mouths of some elders.

She knew there had once been a girl named Xing Mu who lived on Xingluo Mountain.

The name of this mountain was also given by the Mistress.

"Don't talk nonsense in the future."

Ye Xiu shook his head slightly, not explaining too much on this issue.

"Oh."

Chu Meng nodded obediently.

After saying that, she trotted into the small hut and began to fiddle with her belongings.

Although Ye Xiu hadn't been around these years,

As the only successor of the King of Great Xia, Chu Meng's treatment was quite good. The military would occasionally send over small trinkets she liked.

While Chu Meng was busy in the hut,

Ye Xiu, outside the hut, went to the edge of the fish pond not far away and picked up a fishing rod that had been sitting there for who knows how many years.

He just sat there quietly, fishing.
