The Empress's father, the Dao Ancestor's father, you're definitely going to be the principal!

The experience of spatial shuttle was by no means pleasant for the Four Elders.

It was an extreme sense of detachment.

The moment they stepped into the rift, sight, hearing, smell, touch... all senses were completely stripped away.

Surrounded by endless darkness and dead silence, it was as if they had sunk into the deepest void of the Universe, where even the passage of time became blurry and indistinct.

If not for the gentle power of Lin Xiyue constantly enveloping them, providing a faint, almost imperceptible connection,

the Four Elders’ minds would have probably collapsed completely the moment they stepped in.

Fortunately, this feeling did not last too long.

Perhaps it was just an instant, or perhaps a long time had passed.

When light and sound returned, the Four Elders staggered, almost losing their balance.

“Hoo... hoo...”

The Second Elder leaned on his knees, panting heavily, feeling as if his heart was about to leap out of his throat.

The other three Elders were in a similar state, all looking profoundly shaken.

They finally experienced firsthand the terror of such divine methods.

This was simply a power that Mortals could not comprehend or endure.

“Several Grandfathers, are you alright?”

Lin Xiyue’s voice sounded from nearby.

The four men then recovered and looked around.

They had now arrived at a lush, green hilltop.

And not far away, there was another person staring at them with wide eyes, a look of shock on his face.

That person was Lin Guohui.

“Dau... Daughter!”

“And Several Elders!!”

“How... how did you just get here?”

Lin Guohui rubbed his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

If he hadn’t seen wrong, a dark, gaping hole seemed to have suddenly appeared before him,

and then his daughter and the Four Elders walked out of it.

This was just like a dream!

“Oh, Dad, it’s like this.”

Seeing her father’s reaction, Lin Xiyue wasn’t surprised at all.

She hadn’t had time to tell her father about her newly acquired skill, so she chirped an explanation.

“Daughter... you’re getting more and more outrageous!”

“No wonder your brother says you’re a pervert!”

Lin Guohui sighed with emotion after listening.

“Several Elders, from your expressions, this experience of tearing through the Void Realm to travel, is it somewhat frightening?”

Lin Guohui turned to look at the Four Elders, noticing their somewhat pale faces, and asked curiously.

“It is indeed a bit frightening.”

“This method of travel is still a bit too advanced for old fellows like us who are only at Body Tempering First Level.”

The Second Elder said with a slight awkwardness after calming himself down.

He was genuinely startled when Lin Xiyue suddenly took them along.

“Oh, Several Grandfathers, don’t be afraid.”

“With me protecting you, nothing will happen, absolutely.”

Lin Xiyue said with a cheerful smile.

“Hahaha, Little Yue, of course we believe you.”

The Third Elder showed a wry smile.

“It’s just that we are indeed too weak compared to you now.”

“We simply can’t bear that feeling.”

He now deeply felt how enormous the gap was between him and Lin Xiyue.

She could shuttle back and forth through space as if nothing had happened.

But the moment he stepped into the Void Realm, he felt like he was suffocating.

There was a sense of dread, like being in the boundless Universe, unable to find any direction.

“Alright, it’s my fault, I didn’t consider that.”

Lin Xiyue scratched her head apologetically and stuck out her tongue.

“Um... Daughter, Several Elders, are you here to see me?”

Lin Guohui asked, looking at the scene.

“Yes, yes.”

Lin Xiyue nodded repeatedly.

“Great Grandfather and the others are here to see you.”

“Let them tell you the specifics.”

“Dad, don’t be surprised after you hear it~”

She winked at Lin Guohui.

“Surprised?”

“What do you mean?”

Lin Guohui looked at his daughter’s expression, a bit confused.

“Cough cough...”

The Grand Elder cleared his throat and stepped forward.

“Comrade Guohui, it’s like this.”

“You must have heard from Xiyue about the Great Xia Dynasty’s impending establishment of a destiny dynasty, right?”

“Yes, she told me.”

Lin Guohui nodded, but still couldn’t help but voice his concerns.

“Forgive my directness... Several Elders, the position of Empress is no child’s play.”

“Although I have confidence in Xiyue... with her lively personality...”

“Can she really be a good Empress?”

In his opinion, letting his still somewhat childish daughter become Empress sounded a bit too far-fetched.

“Exactly!”

“I also feel I’m not quite suita...”

Lin Xiyue also wanted to echo her father.

But before she could finish, the Second Elder interrupted her!

“Comrade Guohui, you must believe in Yue Yatou’s (Girl Yue) abilities!”

“And even more, you must believe in the country’s judgment!”

“This matter has been decided, so there’s no need to say more.”

Seeing the Second Elder frantically winking at him, Lin Guohui smiled helplessly and wisely said no more.

He understood that the Four Elders were determined to support his daughter as Empress.

There should be some self-interest involved, to some extent.

However, it wasn’t self-interest for his family, but for the country.

For example, once his daughter became Empress, their family would be even more deeply tied to the Great Xia Dynasty.

From then on, no matter what decisions they made, they would definitely prioritize the Great Xia Dynasty.

Of course, this did not conflict with their goals at all,

after all, because of Lin Mo, their family and the Great Xia Dynasty were already bound together, sharing prosperity and loss.

“Alright, since Several Elders all have high hopes for Xiyue, then as her father, I must give my full support!”

“Daughter, you must work hard!”

Lin Guohui said solemnly.

“Oh... I know.”

Lin Xiyue replied weakly; she had thought she could find an excuse not to be this troublesome Empress, but it seemed she had overthought it.

“Since you know, then I’ll continue.”

The Grand Elder, seeing this, continued.

“There’s a crucial point in establishing a destiny dynasty, which is to first gather popular support.”

“For this, us old fellows have decided to establish the first batch of Immortal Cultivation universities, so that the citizens can truly experience the benefits of Cultivating.”

“And among this first batch of Immortal Cultivation universities, the first Immortal Cultivation university is extremely important, as it signifies that our Great Xia Dynasty will henceforth face the citizens and officially open the path of the extraordinary!”

“So, since it’s so important, this university naturally needs a pivotal person to be its principal.”

At this point, the Grand Elder looked at Lin Guohui solemnly.

“After much deliberation, we believe this position belongs to no one but you!”

“We hope you will not decline!”

“Ah?!” Lin Guohui was dumbfounded.

“Me, be this principal?!”

“No, no, no, absolutely not.”

He waved his hands repeatedly.

“Elders, how do I have this experience?”

“I am not worthy!”

He never expected that the Elders came to him to entrust him with such an important task.

But he was just an ordinary person before, how could he bear such a heavy responsibility?

“Guohui...”

The Second Elder patted Lin Guohui’s shoulder.

“To say you’re not worthy is too much.”

“If you’re not worthy, then no one is worthy of being this principal.”

“You probably haven’t realized how prominent your current status is!”

“My status is prominent?” Lin Guohui still waved his hands.

“No, no, Second Elder, I’m just an ordinary person...”

“Ordinary?” The Second Elder laughed heartily.

“You are not ordinary.”

“The father of the soon-to-be-crowned Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, the father of the Dao Ancestor of the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“These two titles alone destine you to be unrelated to the word ‘ordinary’ in the future.”

“To be honest, with your status, being a principal is actually somewhat beneath you.”

Empress’s father... Dao Ancestor’s father?!

Lin Guohui’s heart trembled when he heard these two phrases, and he froze in place.

He suddenly realized how grand the titles on his head were now!

It turned out... unknowingly, he, who was once an ordinary person, had transformed into an existence he had never dared to imagine.

And all of this was brought about by his son and daughter.

But his mindset before had not yet adapted to this change, and he still considered himself an ordinary person.

“Have you realized it?”

The Grand Elder looked at him gently.

“Guohui... you have a pair of wonderful children.”

“The country, it must thank you!”

“If you hadn’t raised such excellent children, how could the Great Xia Dynasty have embarked on the path of the extraordinary?”

“Alright, this matter is settled then.”

“You don’t need to worry, we will assign dedicated personnel to assist you; you only need to oversee the overall situation!”

“With your current cultivation, it shouldn’t be difficult, right?”

The Grand Elder said with a smile.

“This... it doesn’t sound difficult indeed...”

Lin Guohui hesitated somewhat.

Previously, the azure wood qi nourishing brick, the Grand Elder and the others eventually reserved two spots for him and Chen Mei.

And even though the couple tried every means to decline, they still couldn’t refuse.

Therefore, his current cultivation also soared, reaching the Qi Refining Realm.

This indeed gave him a lot of confidence.

If not for this, he would never have had the confidence to serve as the principal of the first Immortal Cultivation university.

After all, being merely at Body Tempering First Level and serving as the principal of the first Immortal Cultivation university, it sounded somewhat laughable no matter how you looked at it.

But the Qi Refining Realm was different; at least a Qi Refining Realm Cultivator was more than capable of guiding a Body Tempering Realm Cultivator.

The Grand Elder and the others probably considered this point when choosing him as the principal, right?

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and finally nodded heavily, accepting this important position.

“Alright, since the country needs me, I will definitely give my all!”

“I accept this position!”
