169: Chapter 169 Standoff at the Door

Having cultivated for an entire night, Ji Yebai did not feel the slightest bit of fatigue.

The strengthening of his Soul and body left him full of energy.

Moreover, by now, Ji Yebai no longer needed sleep to restore his energy.

After tidying up, Ji Yebai happily headed to the library.

Inside the library, a stack of returned books had already piled up.

Just as Ji Yebai had put some books back in their original places, he sensed a wisp of aura from afar.

"Why is she here?!"

Ji Yebai was astonished.

At the school entrance.

Amidst the crowd, a dazzlingly beautiful woman was slowly walking over.

That woman was holy, with an extraordinary appearance; she walked gracefully, her figure lithe.

It was as if a Fairy were strolling through the human world.

What was surprising was that even though such a stunningly beautiful woman was walking through the crowd, she did not attract anyone's attention.

"Hmm?!"

Asma suddenly looked up.

His gaze pierced directly through the crowd and landed on the approaching woman.

This woman was dazzlingly radiant, someone who would be considered exceptionally beautiful even in the Draiden Star Civilization.

And what was surprising was her strength.

"Legendary Intermediate!"

Asma's eyes lit up.

He opened the door and slowly stepped out of the guard room.

An invisible ripple spread out.

The surrounding crowd remained oblivious, subconsciously avoiding the two of them.

Asma stared fixedly at Nangong Qing.

"May I ask who you are!?"

Asma truly did not recognize Nangong Qing.

Before coming to the Blue Star Civilization, Asma was the youngest High-level Legendary of the Draiden Star Civilization, and his status and position were extremely high.

At that time, he did not hold the experts of the Blue Star Civilization in any regard at all.

Except for Bai Zhu, whom he remembered.

As for the remaining hundred Legendaries, he didn't care about them at all.

Consequently, he simply did not remember these people.

Nangong Qing looked at Asma with a grave expression.

She frowned.

What was going on?

Looking at Asma's guard uniform, she was filled with confusion.

Although she could not perceive Asma's specific Realm.

She could clearly feel that his strength and Mental Energy were far superior to her own.

Especially now, as Asma's formidable Mental Energy enveloped Nangong Qing.

Nangong Qing's expression changed slightly.

High-level Legendary, definitely a High-level Legendary.

And not a Martial Artist.

He followed the path of cultivation of the Cosmic Civilization.

Nangong Qing's gaze narrowed slightly as she scanned the details on Asma.

"Why is a Legendary from the Draiden Star Civilization here?!"

Nangong Qing couldn't help but wonder.

She had previously been immersed in the affairs of the Nangong Clan and had not paid attention to Asma leading the team to the Blue Star Civilization for exchanges.

Afterward, Asma remained at the Dome Martial Arts Academy, and the academy did not publicize this matter widely.

These two factors resulted in Nangong Qing having no idea that Asma was here.

At this moment.

A High-level Legendary guard completely stunned Nangong Qing.

Nangong Qing's frown deepened.

What on earth was going on!?

Could the Dome Martial Arts Academy actually attract a High-level Legendary from another civilization to work as a guard!?

"May I ask who Your Excellency is!? Why are you here!"

Nangong Qing asked with a grave expression.

In truth, her first reaction was that Asma was a mole, a mole infiltrating the Blue Star Civilization.

But immediately after, she thought of Ji Yebai.

If she could discover Asma's extraordinariness.

Then Ji Yebai, who lived here, would certainly have discovered it too.

"Hmph!"

Asma instantly regained his arrogance as a High-level Legendary of the Draiden Star Civilization, looking down at Nangong Qing: "I am the guard here, it is I who am asking you!"

In an instant, his surging Mental Energy became even heavier.

True Essence surged around Nangong Qing, divine brilliance began to overflow, and wisps of holy white jade light began to appear.

A faint anger appeared on her face.

This was the Blue Star Civilization, and as an expert in the Life and Death Realm, it had been many years since anyone had looked down upon her.

One must know that back then, in order to occupy this planet, the Blue Star Civilization had engaged in many battles.

Those who were able to fight back then were all experts from her generation during the Spiritual Qi recovery.

It was precisely the fighting during that period that allowed them to eventually ascend to the Life and Death Realm.

They dared to fight back then and feared no one; now that their own strength was even greater, they naturally had nothing to fear.

"Just a High-level Legendary, yet you dare to come here and throw your weight around!"

Nangong Qing's anger rose, and she spoke coldly.

The next moment, the white jade light condensed.

The momentum of the Life and Death Realm began to spread.

The students passing by were instantly affected.

Although they couldn't see them, they subconsciously moved away, their hair standing on end, as if there were some demon here.

There was disdain in Asma's eyes, and he slowly took a step forward.

The Mental Energy around him became even more surging.

Nangong Qing entering like this made him feel that she was an uninvited guest.

As such, he felt that he, as the guard, was not wrong at all to stop her.

Moreover, Ji Yebai was here.

Over these years, he had seen through Ji Yebai.

He hated trivial matters.

Because of this, no one here knew of Ji Yebai's strength.

They didn't even know of the person named Ji Yebai.

The atmosphere in the scene became tense in an instant.

At any moment, they could make a move.

Just as Nangong Qing's anger reached its peak, a voice rang out in both their ears.

"Alright, stop fighting. Qing, lass, I'm in the library!"

As soon as the voice fell.

Asma's expression changed instantly.

The arrogance on his face vanished completely.

He even cupped his hands and bowed toward the direction of the library.

"Sir, it is Asma's fault. I did not know this distinguished guest was your friend!"

"It is fine!"

Ji Yebai's voice rang out, and then fell silent.

Asma hurriedly bowed to Nangong Qing.

"..."

Nangong Qing bit her lip.

She was speechless.

A moment ago, he was so arrogant and looked down on her.

Now, he was bowing and apologizing with an apologetic expression.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really wouldn't have believed this scene before her.

Nangong Qing opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't know what to say, so she simply walked past Asma and headed into the school.

Her curiosity about Ji Yebai grew even stronger.

This guard was definitely related to him.

Behind her, Asma was also curiously examining Nangong Qing.

To be honest, he was quite curious.

After all these years, this was the first time he had seen a friend of the Sir.

And it was a woman at that.

"However..."

Asma couldn't help but sincerely praise: "The beauty of the Sir's friend is by no means inferior to the beauty of our Draiden Star princess!"

Meanwhile, Nangong Qing was deep in thought as she walked into the library.

All the way there, she had been thinking about Ji Yebai.

She had thought she had already overestimated him enough.

But at this moment, she felt in her heart that she might have still underestimated him.

Just what level had the strength of this man, who almost became her brother-in-law back then, reached now!?

She hadn't seen anything particularly Genius about him back then.

Nangong Qing recalled scene after scene from her youth.

She couldn't find anything special about Ji Yebai.

Back then, he just happened to fancy her sister, and he was gentle; there was nothing else.

How did he become so mysterious now!?

She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought.
