Flying swords! Sword Manipulation?!

The minds of the three students went blank. When had they ever witnessed such a spectacular display?

Ye Guan was also a bit surprised. The mysterious force didn't come out to suppress him.

Is Father about to lift the seal on me? Ye Guan thought. However, the thought had yet to disperse from his mind when the missing mysterious force finally made its appearance and made a beeline for Ye Guan.

Ye Guan's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted, "Disperse!"

The swords orbiting him transformed into rays of sword light, returning to their original places.

Ye Guan collapsed to the ground and sat frozen.

Meanwhile, his students were still in a daze. Flying swords! So, a swordsman can really make a sword fly with just their thoughts!

Xuanyuan Ling went over to help Ye Guan up and fed him a vitality pill.

After a while, the color returned to Ye Guan's pale face.

Ye Guan smiled bitterly. He was allowed to show off, but only for a few seconds.

"Are you okay?" Xuanyuan Ling asked.

Ye Guan shook his head.

"Is someone suppressing your cultivation?"

Ye Guan nodded without saying anything.

"Is it the Heavenly Dao?"

"It would be great if it were the Heavenly Dao."

The Heavenly Dao of the Blue Planet couldn't possibly suppress him.

Xuanyuan Ling wanted to ask more questions, but she set her questions aside and gave Ye Guan another vitality pill instead upon seeing his pallid look.

Soon, Ye Guan felt much better; the traces of spiritual energy in the vitality pill were helpful. After a while, Ye Guan sat up. It didn't seem appropriate to lie in Xuanyuan Ling’s arms, who had just become his student.

Ye Guan took a deep breath and swept his gaze across them.

"Would you like to do what I just showed you guys?" Ye Guan asked.

All three of them nodded. So that's what a true swordsman is like!

A swordsman could actually summon a hundred swords with just a shout—the three still couldn't quite believe what they had witnessed, but one thing was for sure: it was awesome!

"The next step is forming your own sword intent. You've seen what sword intent is like, after all, and the next step depends on each of you; I cannot help you at all," Ye Guan said.

One could only count on oneself when it came to sword intent, and outsiders wouldn't be able to lend a hand even if they tried.

The three nodded, and they were all smiles, imagining all sorts of scenarios. Ye Guan had just shown them a whole new world that existed beyond what they had seen so far in television shows.

Ye Guan smiled and left. His students had to depend on themselves for the next step.

It was already noon when Ye Guan left the Sword Dao Department. Ye Guan made a beeline for the classroom where Ao Qianqian was teaching today.

Time for lunch!

Ye Guan looked around and found two young men staring at him in the alleyway on his right. One of the young men was Li Yuan, and he didn't avoid Ye Guan's gaze, choosing to stare directly into the latter's eyes.

Ye Guan merely smiled before walking away.

"Did he just ignore you, Brother Li Yuan? He didn't even greet you," said the young man next to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan’s gaze turned cold, but he did not say anything.

The young man asked, "Shall I get someone to get rid of him?"

Li Yuan shook his head. "I just received news that he's a teacher here. The Xuanyuan Clan recommended him."

The Xuanyuan Clan! The other young man was taken aback.

"He has connections with the Xuanyuan Clan?"

"Yes."

"No wonder he's so arrogant..."

The Xuanyuan Clan was one of Yanjing’s great clans!

Li Yuan was about to say something when a middle-aged man suddenly appeared before them.

Li Yuan was stunned, and he greeted, "Father!"

The middle-aged man was none other than Elder Li Feng of the Milky Way Academy’s Elder Council.

The young man bowed and said, "Greetings, Elder Li!"

Li Feng looked at the young man and asked, "You’re a student from the Martial Department?"

"Yes!" the young man replied.

Li Feng’s gaze turned cold, and he said fiercely, "You’re expelled."

The young man was beyond stupefied, and he stuttered, "W-What?"

Li Yuan was in disbelief as well.

Li Feng waved his hand and said, "Get lost!"

The young man collapsed to the ground.

"Elder Li, I... What mistake did I commit?" the young man asked, stuttering.

Li Feng glared at him and explained, "You just suggested harming a teacher of the Milky Way Academy. Think about it; is that a serious crime or not?"

The young man was stunned. Moments later, he turned to look at Li Yuan for help.

Li Yuan wanted to say something, but Li Feng glared at Li Yuan and said, "Follow me!"

Li Feng then turned around and left.

Li Yuan hesitated, but he eventually chased after his father. 𝙛𝓻𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

Left all alone, the young man's face was ashen. Getting expelled from the Milky Way Academy was undoubtedly a heavy and devastating blow, and it meant that he would become the biggest laughingstock in his family!

Meanwhile, Li Yuan was quiet as he walked slowly behind Li Feng.

Just then. Li Feng calmly asked, "You like Teacher Ao?"

Li Yuan hesitated before nodding.

Li Feng stared at him and said, "What kind of person do you think she is?"

"I think she's a mysterious person."

"Is that it? You idiot. You really are an idiot," Li Feng remarked.

Li Yuan was confused.

Li Feng shook his head and explained, "The dean immediately made her a teacher, and at the time, she acted like an alien, not knowing the customs of the Blue Planet. How could someone from our planet be unaware of our customs? Do you understand what I’m trying to say here?"

Li Yuan’s face was full of disbelief as he asked, "She’s from the stars beyond?"

Li Feng nodded. "I haven't said anything about your intentions to pursue her, as our Li Clan would benefit the most if you were to succeed. I know the chances are tiny, but it's possible, so I decided to stay silent.

"But now..." Li Feng glared furiously at his son before continuing, "She already has a boyfriend, but you still decided to confess to her. Do you really think that what you've done was cool?

"Your behavior screamed childish and uncouth. If I were a woman, I would have turned you down

Li Yuan’s face turned extremely gloomy at his father's remark.

However, Li Feng wasn't done just yet as she said, "I'm sure you know about Teacher Ao's pride. Do you really think that she'll fall for any ordinary man? With that in mind, do you really think that his boyfriend is an ordinary man?"

Li Yuan hesitated before muttering, "I’ve investigated him. He only has a connection with the Xuanyuan Clan—"

"You fool!" Li Feng interrupted, asking, "Do you not have any idea just how powerful and influential the Xuanyuan Clan is? What's in your head? A pig's brain? Use that head once and think: will the Xuanyuan Clan place value on an ordinary man?"

Li Yuan’s face became even more gloomy, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"I saw your challenging look at him earlier, but his gaze toward you remained calm and composed. It means that he's not taking you seriously at all—he was saying with his gaze that you are unworthy of his attention, you fool!" Li Feng exclaimed.

Li Yuan lowered his head slightly without saying anything.

"And you idiot even dared to think about getting your revenge. Are you trying to send me to my grave?!" Li Feng roared.

Li Yuan finally looked up and defiantly replied, "Father, I think you're just afraid of causing trouble! You are an elder of the Elder Council, while they're just teachers. If you decide to mess with them, what can they do to you? They're nothing but—"

"Fuck!" Li Feng yelled in frustration and swung his hand.

Smack!

Li Yuan's words had yet to finish echoing in the air when he received a crisp slap in the face. The slap was so powerful that Li Yuan flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground.

However, the shock was far greater than the pain; Li Yuan couldn't quite believe that his father had just slapped him in the face.

Li Feng glared at Li Yuan and said, "You're even dumber than I thought. I’ve been wise all my life; how did I give birth to such a stupid son like you? I’m starting to suspect that you might be someone else’s son!"

Li Yuan was at a loss for words.

Li Feng pointed at his son and scolded, "I’ve told you so many things, but you haven’t listened to me at all. Forget it, I can’t be bothered to waste any more words on you. Someone come here!"

Just then, two old men walked over to them.

Li Feng looked coldly at Li Yuan and said, "Take him back to the Li Clan. Without my permission, he's not allowed to leave the Li Manor. If he dares to leave on his own, break his legs and lock him up."

Li Yuan was instantly pale, and he begged, "Father, I still have to go to school! I have to—"

"Bring him away!" Li Feng interrupted, waving his hand.

The two old men dragged Li Yuan away.

Li Feng sighed to himself. He wasn't exactly a kind person himself. If Ao Qianqian were just an ordinary person, he would have agreed to help his son. However, Ao Qianqian couldn't be further from an ordinary person!

Her boyfriend had also been personally recommended by someone from the Xuanyuan Clan, which meant that there was no way he was an ordinary person.

Li Feng had learned an essential ability to reach his current heights: the ability to judge people he could provoke and people he couldn't afford to provoke.

If there were people he could provoke, he could bully them a little, but those who couldn't be provoked were absolutely off-limits. Li Feng knew that provoking someone he couldn't afford to provoke meant dying of natural causes.

Li Feng was well aware of it, but his son was clearly unaware. To make matters worse, he was even unwilling to listen. Li Feng sighed to himself once again. He was starting to feel regretful that he had been spoiling his son.

If he hadn't been vigilant and hadn't come over earlier to see what was happening, his foolish son would have gone after that man, which might have been the end of himself and his son. fre(e)webnov(l).com

After a while, Li Feng turned around to leave. He had made up his mind—he would sire another son. His efforts had been wasted on Li Feng, so he decided to just start all over again with a new son.

...

Ye Guan continued walking toward Ao Qianqian’s classroom.

Of course, he didn't even consider Li Yuan as his rival. He was only interested in those who were more powerful than the average riffraff here. It would be great if Li Yuan decided not to bother him anymore, but Ye Guan could just get rid of him if Li Yuan was foolish enough to do otherwise.

Ye Guan soon arrived at Ao Qianqian’s classroom. Ao Qianqian was still in the middle of her class, and her focus was on the fundamentals of martial arts. It made sense, as teaching these students the profundities of martial arts was meaningless.

The students in the classroom cast curious gazes upon Ye Guan.

Ao Qianqian turned to Ye Guan and smiled. Then, she looked at her students and announced, "Class dismissed!"

Ao Qianqian wasted no time and walked up to Ye Guan.

"Let's go eat lunch," Ye Guan suggested with a smile.

"Sure, let's go." Ao Qianqian said, nodding.

The two then walked away while holding hands.

Meanwhile, the students erupted into another clamorous din.

"How is he worthy of Teacher Qianqian?" a male student said, sounding frustrated.

"What do you mean? I think he’s handsome!" said a female student.

The male student retorted, "So what if he's handsome? Beauty fades; what matters most is one's personality."

"Zhang Yun, how long have you been single?"

"Three—Huh? Why are you asking me that?"

"You’ve been single for three years now! Do you know why?"

"Are you saying that I’m ugly?"

"I didn't say anything; you said that yourself," the female student retorted.

Zhang Yun was at a complete loss for words.
