The sound of birds chirping in the sky gently woke Ye Yang from his slumber. As he opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a fragrant bedroom. Without a doubt, this was Yun Xiaoxi's room.
Supporting his body with his arm, Ye Yang looked down to see that his chest was wrapped in thick bandages, stained with blood. Judging by the technique, it must have been the work of Zeng Xuan. Although Zeng Xuan was known for his ruthless methods of killing, his skills in saving lives were equally remarkable. Throughout his injuries, it was mostly Zeng Xuan who helped bandage him, becoming a skilled healer over time.
...
As he circulated his True Qi, Ye Yang could clearly feel the Fire God True Qi within him slowly gathering and filling up. Despite the severity of his injuries, his strength had not diminished significantly. At the same time, a burning power flowed through his Bloodline; it was the Haotian Sword that had merged with him. This sword had become Ye Yang's protective Divine Weapon and could be quite helpful in critical moments.
Slowly getting up, Ye Yang stretched his legs and confirmed that both his arms and legs were intact. However, he felt weak due to excessive blood loss from being pierced by Zaochi's spear.
Standing up, he took a couple of steps before rolling up his green robe and reaching out to push open the door.
"Creak..."
Bright sunlight flooded in, forcing Ye Yang to squint. After a few seconds, he adjusted to the light and saw several beautiful young girls running toward him with swords in hand. "Hehe, Ye Yang, Young Hero, you're awake! Quickly go inform Sister Xiaoxi!"
Ye Yang stood on the steps and looked out at a vast courtyard filled with numerous rooms lined up in a row. This courtyard also served as the training ground for Serene Gate. On ordinary days, many disciples of Serene Gate practiced martial arts here. In the distance, rows of heavy stones weighing over a thousand pounds bore marks from sword strikes, proving everything.
In the distance, lush trees provided shade while birds sang melodiously.
Ye Yang couldn't help but close his eyes and enjoy the fragrant sounds of nature. His mind had never felt as tranquil as it did at that moment. However, this peace was only temporary because Ye Yang knew there were many tasks awaiting him. The Qi State was engaged in military efforts to reclaim various cities; war was likely ongoing. Additionally, Liu Bang had emerged from Bashu with the help of Asura God and was locked in a stalemate with Xiang Yu's army. Meanwhile, Peng Yue had already allied with Liu Bang and was constantly maneuvering to disrupt Xiang Yu's main forces.
The Qi State could not remain passive; whether it was Peng Yue, Xiang Yu, or Liu Bang, they all coveted Qi State's fertile lands and abundant population. Capturing cities in Qi State would allow them to impose more taxes and strengthen their military forces. The one with the strongest military would hold more power in negotiations.
"Swish!"
A figure in white swiftly approached, revealing Yun Xiaoxi, who had changed into a white outfit. She looked pure and sweet, smiling as she gazed at Ye Yang. "Zi Yu, you finally woke up!"
"How long have I been asleep?"
"Five days and five nights..."
"Damn!"
Ye Yang was speechless, murmuring, "I didn't expect my injuries to be so severe that I slept for five whole days..."
Yun Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Grandpa Qin mentioned that during your battle with Zaochi, you were injured at the Spirit Rank, which is why you slept for so long. Both me and Sister Zeng Xuan have been waiting for you to wake up!"
"Where's Sister Zeng Xuan?"
"She's in the kitchen urging for food and drinks. Hehe, come with me! Zi Yu killed Zaochi and eliminated a great threat for our Serene Gate. You are our Serene Gate's benefactor of rebirth, so whatever requests you have, we will do our best to fulfill them!"
Ye Yang stopped in his tracks and jokingly said, "If that's the case, then Xiao Xi shouldn't be the leader of Serene Gate; she should travel the world with me instead..."
Yun Xiaoxi trembled slightly and fell silent. Beside her, several female disciples giggled, one of them saying, "Ye Shao Xia, Sister Xiao Xi is the one among our current disciples who understands the Void Technique the most deeply. If she doesn't lead us, the martial arts of Serene Gate will take a big step backward..."
Ye Yang waved his hand dismissively. "It's a small matter; I can teach you all the True Void Technique!"
"You know the True Void Technique?" Yun Xiaoxi looked at Ye Yang in surprise. "Really?"
"Of course!"
Ye Yang smiled and said, "Have you forgotten Grandpa Qin? He is a capable attendant of Azure Emperor Fuxi, and both Serene Gate and Asura Hall were passed down from the Void Sect, which was personally founded by Azure Emperor Fuxi. Therefore, Grandpa Qin is familiar with Void Technique, and I know a little about it too!"
Yun Xiaoxi was extremely excited: "Void Technique has been lost for a long time. Even my master only knows less than thirty percent of it. If Zi Yu really knows the Void Technique, I certainly don't have to stay at Serene Gate anymore."
Ye Yang called out several times, "Grandpa Qin, Grandpa Qin!"
After a moment, Qin Fang trembled and floated out from Haotian Sword, gently stroking his beard and said, "Zi Yu, what do you need me for?"
"Well, it's really hard to say..." Ye Yang chuckled.
Qin Fang couldn't help but smile: "Actually, I already understand. You want me to teach the Serene Gate Void Technique, right?"
"Yes!" Yun Xiaoxi nodded earnestly, her beautiful eyes filled with hope.
Qin Fang pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I will write a True Void Technique for Serene Gate, but it will only be allowed for the sect leader to practice. The other disciples can only practice low-level Mind Method because insufficient cultivation will harm themselves. The essential parts of Void Technique can only be practiced by those who are Starry Sky Level Three or above."
Yun Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said, "Sister Silent as a Cicada has already reached Starry Sky Level Five. She is kind-hearted and dedicated to saving Common People. If she were to take over as the sect leader of Serene Gate for me, it might be the most suitable choice. Moreover, after practicing Grandpa Qin's True Void Technique, Sister Silent as a Cicada will surely be able to ascend to godhood quickly!"
Ye Yang said, "Then it's settled! Absolutely!"
Qin Fang smiled and said, "Give me the writing tools and Bamboo Slip!"
"It's in the main hall!" Yun Xiaoxi replied.
"I'll go get it." Qin Fang floated away.
Ye Yang and Yun Xiaoxi walked side by side through the azure corridor of Serene Gate, with towering mountains in the distance reaching into the clouds, and cranes soaring gracefully among them, creating an atmosphere of tranquility.
Yun Xiaoxi pressed her red lips together and said, "Zaochi has occupied Serene Gate for over a year, committing numerous atrocities. Finally, he has been expelled. I will continue to diligently cultivate my skills, and one day, I will personally ensure that this villain Zaochi pays for his deeds!"
Ye Yang smiled lightly, "Yes, Serene Gate needs to be rebuilt properly now."
"Indeed."
In the distance, countless craftsmen were carving a large stone shaped like a sword, the sound of chiseling echoing all around. Ye Yang couldn't help but ask in astonishment, "What is that?"
"Wangyue Sword Pavilion..."
Yun Xiaoxi's eyes reflected deep sorrow as she continued, "Master Fox Moon guarded Serene Gate for thousands of years but ultimately met a tragic end at the hands of Zaochi, with her spirit completely extinguished. Therefore, I have invited craftsmen from down the mountain to build a Wangyue Sword Pavilion in her honor. This will serve as a memorial and ensure that generations of Serene Gate remember that she sacrificed her own body for our lineage..."
Ye Yang nodded in agreement, "Yes..."
At that moment, a female disciple soared out from the clouds with a sword in hand and lightly landed before Yun Xiaoxi. She held her sword and reported, "Sect Master, there is an envoy from Wei Kingdom seeking an audience. He says he has a message for Ye Yang, Young Hero!"
"An envoy from Wei Kingdom?" Ye Yang asked in surprise.
"Yes."
"What is his name?"
"He said his name is Peng Yue..."
"Good for you, Peng Yue!"
Ye Yang couldn't help but smile and said, "Let him in!"
"Yes..."
...
Yun Xiaoxi asked in confusion, "Isn't Peng Yue the Chancellor of Wei Kingdom? Why would he suddenly come to Serene Gate to find you? How does he know you are at Serene Gate?"
Ye Yang licked his dry lips and replied, "He was bound to come looking for me sooner or later."
