Tai Shi Xiao Xiao was very surprised that Ouyang Shaohua was able to quickly advance to the peak of the Guardian Realm. She carefully inquired about the circumstances, and when she learned that it was Guan Yue who provided the medicine to help her breakthrough, she couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope.
She called for Guan Yue and asked him to explain what kind of medicines he had.
Guan Yue understood Tai Shi Xiao Xiao's intentions very well. He appreciated that Tai Shi Xiao Xiao had stood by him in the past, and he also thanked her for her help and support for Ouyang Shaohua. Therefore, he did not hesitate and immediately took out some precious medicines, including two types of Saint Level medicines: the Great Heaven Realm Restoration Pill and the Great Zhou Minor Fortune Pill.
Tai Shi Xiao Xiao shyly said, "These two medicines are useful to me; please let me use them first. In the future, if you need anything, Guan Yue, I will compensate you. How does that sound?"
Although she asked Guan Yue for his opinion, she had already taken the Great Heaven Realm Restoration Pill and the Great Zhou Minor Fortune Pill. She had long yearned for these two sacred medicines.
Guan Yue calmly replied, "I will take care of myself. I hope that the Grand Historian Vice Dean can protect Ouyang Shaohua well; that would satisfy me."
Tai Shi Xiao Xiao laughed heartily, "Don't worry, Guan Yue. Ouyang is my only disciple; I will certainly protect her well. Now that I have received such great benefits from you, I will consider her as my own daughter. No matter how strong the winds or rains may be, as long as I still draw breath, I will not allow Ouyang to suffer any grievances. Is that acceptable?"
"Thank you, Vice Dean. I wish you success in your breakthrough," Guan Yue said, seeing that Tai Shi Xiao Xiao had reached this point in their conversation, he could only agree. He then took his leave.
"Guan Yue, don't worry. With the Great Heaven Realm Restoration Pill and the Great Zhou Minor Fortune Pill, if I can't break through my realm, then I must be a pig!" Tai Shi Xiao Xiao, feeling delighted, immediately displayed her feminine charm and began joking with Guan Yue.
As expected, the next day, a tremendous commotion erupted at Qilin Academy, even greater than when Ouyang Shaohua broke through. The earth-shattering sound and brilliant light reaching up to the heavens caused chaos throughout Qilin Academy, with students thinking it was an invasion by outsiders.
After some investigation, it turned out that it was the Grand Historian Vice Dean who had broken through to the Eternal Peak!
When this thunderous roar shook the mountains and rivers began, Dean Kintian realized that it was once again Tai Shi Xiao Xiao breaking through. A sense of helplessness arose in Nantian. In Qilin Academy, only a breakthrough by Tai Shi Xiao Xiao could create such a massive sound. Now she had firmly surpassed him by two major realms.
The Eternal Peak, with one more breakthrough, would reach the Eternal Realm, which grants a lifespan of ten thousand years! What does ten thousand years mean? It means living several lifetimes!
It allows one to support many descendants to grow strong and prosperous and enables one's family to thrive because there is time.
The continuous breakthroughs by women brought joy to all of Qilin Academy, as it became stronger than ever before. More people saw hope in becoming a Boundary Guardian. The once stagnant atmosphere of Qilin Academy was revitalized once again.
Now, Ouyang Shaohua, Huangfu Jiayin, Naijia, and Naiqian have become the idols of the students, while Lu Xiao and Lu Tao, former disciples of the Inner Courtyard, have become yesterday's news, with no one paying them any attention.
Nantian has repeatedly hinted to He Bi to seek out Guan Yue, as she might be able to obtain some medicine. However, He Bi is unwilling to lower herself and beg for help. Thus, she remains at the Peak of the Human Realm.
Dean Kintian had no choice but to approach Guan Yue himself for assistance. After sensing a bit, he pretended to casually encounter Guan Yue and appeared before her. Guan Yue has actually reached the Guardian Realm now and knows that finding her would be easy for Dean Kintian. He assumed that Dean Kintian was there to request sacred medicine like Tai Shi Xiao Xiao.
However, the situation surprised Guan Yue greatly.
"Guan Yue, I am truly pleased that you returned to the academy this time. We have unexpectedly produced three talents at the Guardian Realm level. It has been many years since Qilin Academy has seen such brilliance! As the dean, I thank you." Dean Kintian's opening remarks moved Guan Yue because he could tell that the dean still deeply cares for Qilin Academy.
Dean Kintian continued, "Do you know who was the first to come looking for me when I decided not to let you enter the Inner Courtyard?"
Guan Yue was puzzled; who would go to see the dean? For her sake?
"It was He Bi. She came to cause a scene with me so that you could enter the Inner Courtyard. Of course, I scolded her, and she cried at that time." Dean Kintian paused. "You should know that she has always regarded you as a good friend; she is your staunch supporter. She wanted to use her limited abilities to protect you."
Guan Yue was taken aback. Although He Bi could be excessive at times, she had always treated him well, which he was very aware of. So he bowed respectfully to Dean Kintian and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Dean. I know what to do now."
Nantian smiled and nodded before disappearing in an instant. After pondering for a while, Guan Yue realized that there were things Dean Kintian could do that he couldn't replicate himself.
That day, Guan Yue sought out He Bi, who was currently practicing Mental Strength. Seeing Guan Yue come to find her made her very happy.
"Wow, what brings you here? You've been away for over a year and seem to have gained quite a lot. You've already reached the Peak of the Human Realm like me."
Seeing He Bi's smiling face made Guan Yue feel a pang of sadness. She truly cared for him; reflecting on everything from the past made him realize she had never harmed him. She had protected him like an older sister; he just hadn't felt it back then due to his youth.
So Guan Yue smiled back at He Bi, which made her even happier: "Wow, you've really grown handsome! You're much better than when you used to run around with a runny nose and make a fuss."
Guan Yue immediately became unhappy: "Sister, that's nonsense! When did I ever make a fuss?" In his urgency, he blurted out his true thoughts.
"What? You call me sister? Haha, I have a younger brother! I have a younger brother!" He Bi tightly hugged Guan Yue, not letting go, and her tears flowed uncontrollably. It was clear how excited she was.
Guan Yue held back the urge to cry and gently repeated, "Sister, you are my sister. Thank you for always taking care of me. I was ignorant and ungrateful."
"What are you talking about? Grateful? The entire Qilin Academy should be thanking you instead. You are making Qilin Academy stronger than ever before. We can now completely defeat True Dragon Academy. Do you know? This has been the dream of generations at Qilin Academy," He Bi exclaimed, staring wide-eyed at Guan Yue.
"Sister, I want to make you beautiful. Are you willing?" Guan Yue suddenly thought of something and slyly asked He Bi.
He Bi shook her head, "Brother, isn't it good for me to look like this? Does it embarrass you?"
"No, I want you to bring honor to our family. Just stay still for three minutes; give me three minutes, and I will show you a different version of yourself. You know what magic is? This is magic! From now on, you will be my pride and the pride of our Qilin Academy!" Guan Yue knew that He Bi cared for Qilin Academy more than herself, so he placed the grand title of pride of Qilin Academy upon her, and she would surely accept it!
Sure enough, He Bi immediately quieted down and allowed Guan Yue to work his magic. Three minutes later, after Guan Yue used the Ruyi Facial Enhancement Technique on He Bi, he immediately noticed that He Bi had transformed into someone incredibly beautiful—truly resembling a Celestial Being, even more beautiful than a Celestial Being. She was exquisitely cute and gentle, with an air of allure and fantasy! Yes, she looked just like a dream lover.
Guan Yue truly realized the extraordinary talent of Ruyi Girl! She had actually devised such a technique! However, a shadow of Millennium's Last Love flashed through Guan Yue's mind.
The purposes of the two were so different; they were worlds apart!
He Bi was very curious about what Guan Yue had done to her. She quickly ran to the bronze mirror to take a look. Upon seeing herself in the mirror, she fell silent and became utterly quiet. Gazing at her reflection in the bronze mirror, a single tear rolled down her exquisite face, dripping onto her chin and then onto the ground with a soft yet crisp sound.
Suddenly, she turned around and tightly embraced Guan Yue while crying bitterly.
This crying session lasted for half an hour. Guan Yue understood that He Bi was overwhelmed with joy.
Gao Yuxin also exclaimed, "Brother Guan, this technique from the Red-Furred Monkey is quite reliable; she really does look beautiful! In the future when I go out, you must make me look this beautiful too. Otherwise, I won't let this go!"
Guan Yue held He Bi but felt differently compared to when he embraced Ouyang Shaohua. Holding Ouyang Shaohua was more about wanting to protect her, cherish her, possess her. But holding He Bi was more about genuine joy from the heart; he was happy for her happiness!
Before leaving, Guan Yue took out some royal-grade medicinal herbs for breakthrough use. He Bi did not refuse; she simply said, "Thank you, my dear brother."
Guan Yue knew that this statement represented all her thoughts.
As expected, the next day, He Bi successfully broke through to the Guardian Realm. She became the fifth student of the Guardian Realm at Qilin Academy. Moreover, she suddenly became incredibly beautiful, turning into the dream lover of everyone. Especially among the boys at Qilin Academy, many began to pursue her madly. Within a few days, over two thousand boys surrounded her, willing to be her followers and serve her.
He Bi became the ideal woman for every man. This included Lu Xiao, Lu Tao, Jiang Tianlan, Xiahou Xiong, and others who started to flatter her desperately.
In an instant, He Bi's fame overshadowed that of Ouyang Shaohua.
Jiang Tianlan immediately sent this news to the royal city of the Southern Source Empire. The royal family quickly learned about a great beauty emerging from Qilin Academy, named He Bi!
Now, Naijia, Naiqian, and Huangfu Jiayin ran to visit Ouyang Shaohua every day, clearly forming a small clique. Since Naiqian was the oldest, she took the lead.
They often discussed He Bi together, unanimously believing that her breakthrough was definitely related to Guan Yue. To this, Guan Yue calmly replied, "Of course, now He Bi is my sister. Helping her break through is my duty."
"Then now that she has become so beautiful, did you have a hand in it?" Huangfu Jiayin pressed on.
Guan Yue glanced at Ouyang Shaohua, who smiled silently, knowing she was also curious about what had happened. So he candidly said, "Indeed, I helped her become this way. However, Ouyang Shaohua is my woman. I think she looks great just as she is. There’s no need for any changes. I regret making Sister He Bi look like this now. It was a moment of impulse; thinking back on it now, it really seems pointless."
"Hmph, but there are thousands of boys following her around all day; how impressive," Naijia whispered.
Guan Yue smiled and said, "If you want, I can make you look like that too. Would you like that?"
Naijia hesitated for a moment; she looked at Guan Yue's expression and then lowered her head, saying nothing more.
