8: The Great Chu Academy, Quasi-Emperor Huang Wuji

Yuntian City.

In less than a day, the news of the Qin Clan giving birth to an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo spread, and the speed of its dissemination grew faster and faster.

The spread was very effective!

None other than!

All because of Chu Yuehua!

Her Majesty the Empress of Great Chu, that strong female, a breathtakingly beautiful woman, the legend of the Great Chu Empire, had actually taken a Disciple!

"Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo… This is too incredible. After more than twenty years as a good-for-nothing, he can still Awaken an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo!"

"If you ask me, he should have Awakened long ago. It's just that the Family didn't favor him and didn't provide enough resources to refine his Physical Body, which is why he couldn't Awaken."

"Isn't that right… Twenty years ago, the Qin Clan had internal strife. It's said that he had a Supreme Bone, but was ambushed, his Supreme Bone shattered, and his Dao Foundation injured, leaving him with a poor Physique."

"There's such a hidden story! It seems his Physique was poor, his Foundation injured, and the Qin Clan planned to give up on him. But now, they've lost out big time!"

"Qin Wushang can Awaken an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo at twenty, and I'm only nineteen. I need to work hard; maybe I can also Awaken a Sacred Body or something."

"Give it a rest! If an ugly duckling can turn into a swan, it's because it was a swan to begin with. You, however, will always be an ugly duckling, forever an ugly duckling."

"Shut up! Who's an ugly duckling! The Heavenly Dao rewards diligence. As long as I work hard enough and endure hardship, I will one day become a strong Cultivator! Unlike you, who just plays two-person skits with Cuihua every day!"

As the news spread, the entire Yunmeng City was in an uproar!

Qin Wushang, that good-for-nothing, once again became the subject of widespread discussion and post-tea gossip.

And the neighboring Yuntian City was no exception!

Inside the City Lord's Mansion!

"What? He… he was taken as a Disciple by Chu Yuehua?"

Lin Ziyao looked at the news in front of her and slammed the table, standing up.

For her, this was not good news!

As a Rebirth Cultivator, she knew too well how terrifying Chu Yuehua truly was.

"Young Miss! It's true! The news has already spread! Everyone in Yunmeng City is laughing at the Qin Clan. That guy has soared into the sky, becoming a true Dragon!"

"Young Miss! Your foresight is truly excellent. You actually saw that he was a Prodigy and didn't want to break off the engagement!"

The maid beside her praised her.

Initially, she didn't understand Lin Ziyao's actions, but now she greatly admired Lin Ziyao.

Qin Wushang, who everyone viewed as a good-for-nothing, had actually risen overnight to become a Prodigy.

"Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo… leaving the Qin Clan… becoming Chu Yuehua's Disciple…"

"It's changed! Some things have changed! Is it because I didn't break off the engagement?"

Lin Ziyao murmured, her mind racing.

According to her memories from her previous life, Qin Wushang would indeed Awaken an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo.

However, that was after she broke off the engagement, when Qin Wushang was expelled from the Qin Clan and became a Loose Cultivator.

Later, she regretted it and was humiliated by Qin Wushang!

"Not breaking off the engagement… actually caused such a huge change in his growth trajectory!"

"Chu Yuehua, oh Chu Yuehua, is your arrival an accident or something else?"

"…It seems I still need to enter the Great Chu Academy to continue having contact with Qin Wushang!"

"You can't steal my beautiful man!"

Lin Ziyao whispered.

In her previous life, she had also joined the Great Chu Academy, but after Rebirth, she didn't want to.

But now, she had no choice but to join the Great Chu Academy.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to contact Qin Wushang!

"Yao'er! Is this why you didn't break off the engagement?"

"Did you know all along that Qin Wushang would Awaken?"

Just then, a voice came from outside the door, and a middle-aged man walked in.

He was Lin Ziyao's father, Lin Nantian, and also the Revered Master of Yuntian City, the Great Chu Empire's General guarding the East.

"Father! Not at all!"

"I just felt he was different… The engagement, after all, was set by you, and we can't go back on our word, can we? How could we break off the engagement?"

"Now that he can Awaken, it's also a good thing!"

Regarding her father's question, she naturally couldn't nod.

Otherwise, the matter of Rebirth would be difficult to explain!

"It is indeed a good thing! Otherwise, my daughter would have to marry a good-for-nothing, and that wouldn't do!"

"Now that he has been taken by Her Majesty the Empress, it's a great thing for us, but for Qin Zhantian, it's probably not a good thing."

Lin Nantian said with a smile.

For an aristocratic Family, a Prodigy losing loyalty to their own clan is a huge loss.

"They brought it upon themselves!"

"It wasn't enough to dig out his Supreme Bone once; they even wanted to harm him a second time. This Qin Zhantian is truly a shameless villain!"

Lin Ziyao said coldly.

"Actually… this is understandable. Although he is his son, they haven't lived together, so there's certainly no affection."

"An aristocratic Family always only cares about benefits. If I were in that situation, I would also dig out the Supreme Bone to support the child I loved the most."

Lin Nantian said.

A person in power cannot be benevolent; maximizing benefits is best!

If he faced such a situation… he would also do the same!

A Sacred Body is very strong, but more bones mean more paths!

"Hmph! If you were like that… then I would also betray the Lin Family and turn the world upside down against you!"

Lin Ziyao snorted coldly.

"Hahaha! Just kidding! Just kidding! Father only has one good daughter like you; such a situation would never happen!"

Lin Nantian laughed loudly.

He had no sons, so such a situation wouldn't occur.

"Hmph!"

"That's unknown. What if you kept concubines outside and gave me many younger brothers?"

Lin Ziyao snorted coldly.

"Nonsense! Although your father doesn't know many characters, he can distinguish some things clearly!"

Lin Nantian pretended to be angry and scolded her.

"Enough! Let's not talk about this!"

"Father! You are Qin Zhantian's superior. Since he is without virtue and ability, you can completely use this excuse to suppress him and remove him from his position as City Lord of Yunmeng City!"

"You can also cut his position and cut his power!"

Lin Ziyao suggested.

She had to get revenge for offending her man.

"Well… actually, Her Majesty the Empress acted even faster! Her imperial decree has already reached my hands!"

"It's even more ruthless than what my good daughter said!"

"Qin Zhantian's position has been stripped to the bottom, from a Deputy General to a common soldier. He has been punished to guard the gate for ten years, and Yunmeng City will also be temporarily managed by my Lin Family!"

As the words fell, Lin Ziyao was greatly surprised.

Chu Yuehua actually made a Saint King guard the city gate for ten years!

"This is good too! In time, he will surely rebel!"

"Chu Yuehua! I couldn't defeat you in the last life, but in this life, I will not lose to you again! I must become Her Majesty the Empress!"

Lin Ziyao secretly thought to herself… Central State, Imperial Capital.

Great Chu Academy, Emperor Mountain.

This was the most sacred mountain in the Academy; without the permission of Her Majesty the Empress Chu Yuehua, no one could enter.

But today, it welcomed a newcomer!

Qin Wushang!

"Wushang!"

"From now on, you will Cultivate here on Emperor Mountain!"

"This is the best cultivation place in the Academy!"

Chu Yuehua landed and said coolly.

"As Revered Master commands!"

Qin Wushang was very surprised.

"This is Dean Meng Changdao!"

"Meng Changdao, from now on, Qin Wushang will be my Personal Disciple, a true Disciple of the Academy. Do you have any objections?"

Chu Yuehua glanced at the old man who had rushed over.

"Replying to Her Majesty the Empress… an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo can indeed become a true Disciple of our Academy, but why is he only Body Refining at this age?"

Meng Changdao was a Saint Realm strong Cultivator; he could see Qin Wushang's specific cultivation and Physique at a glance.

His Physique was Heaven-Defying, but his age and cultivation… were truly unexpected!

"That is not for you to concern yourself with!"

"As for what to do, explain everything that needs to be explained to him, and he must also know the rules he should know!"

"Wushang, this Revered Master still has some matters to attend to. I will come to guide your Cultivation another day!"

With that, Chu Yuehua disappeared.

Meng Changdao was very surprised, his gaze falling on Qin Wushang, scrutinizing him up and down.

"You, young man… this couldn't have been Awakened recently, could it? How can your Physical Body's physiological structure be so rough and crude!"

He said in surprise.

The Great Chu Academy was in the Imperial Capital, and the Imperial Capital and Yunmeng City were countless billions of miles apart. As the Dean, he naturally didn't know the news from there yet.

"Replying to Dean! I did indeed Awaken recently!"

Qin Wushang said truthfully.

"Strange, strange… There are actually Human Race members who can Awaken at an bone age of over twenty…"

"This old man has truly seen something new!"

Meng Changdao was incredibly astonished.

He scrutinized him up and down, and after confirming that he hadn't misjudged, he continued, "Since Her Majesty the Empress has taken you as her Disciple, you will be a true Disciple of the Academy from now on!"

"Emperor Mountain is Her Majesty the Empress's cultivation place. Generally speaking, no one can enter. Since she brought you here, you can reside here!"

"This book clearly explains all the rules of the Academy, big and small. Take some time to read it."

"The palace next door has a Great Dao Spirit Spring! You cannot enter without your Revered Master's permission!"

"Your Revered Master will often Cultivate there, so you can live in the wooden house next to it!"

"If you need wood to expand the wooden house, you can find the Mute!"

"Mute! Mute! Come here for a moment!!!"

As the words fell, a figure appeared before Qin Wushang at a terrifying speed.

It was an old man!

He was dressed in coarse linen clothes, tattered, with disheveled hair, and yellow teeth.

Qin Wushang looked at him, and a light screen appeared above his head.
