This trip to the Tiandu Ocean brought Ye Mo many rewards – in particular, the thousand-year Pearl Pill, which allowed the amount of Giant Dragon Power inside Ye Mo’s body to double straightaway.

A thousand-year collection of the ocean’s essences was naturally going to be something special.

Speaking of which, the princess was indeed Ye Mo’s savior. Had he not found the princess, he would not have gone to the Tiandu Ocean. Had the princess not eaten the essence of the Kraken King, Ye Mo would not have advanced to the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm so easily as well, including awakening 4500 rays of Giant Dragon Power.

There was only a little more than a month’s time before the League War, and time was tight.

Walking inside the Heaven’s Wall City, Ye Mo was prepared to return to the Qingyun League.

Getting the right to be a Chief Elect was of the utmost importance, and Ye Mo also wanted to clear things up with Xuan Ji and ask her about her exact relationship with Ye Qing.

Bang!

Suddenly, the sound of fighting could be heard from a hotel from a far distance, only for an elder to be kicked out of the hotel, with the surrounding crowd standing far away.

With these two big family clans having conflicts with each other, no matter how angry they were, they could only watch on.

“Old fool, what’s wrong? Am I not allowed to say a few words? That Xiao Cao is bound to be Master Cao’s wife sooner or later – they are already engaged. Do you really think Xiao Cao is still pure? I’m afraid Master Cao has already grown bored of her.”

A few Imperial Guards walked out from the hotel with sinister looks on their faces.

These guards were all in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. The younger generation, no matter how strong, dared not rub them the wrong way.

Elder Qi stood up painstakingly as he said in anger, “Lady Xiao Cao is still pure. Don’t you dare spout all that rubbish. Even Cao Zheng promised to not touch her before she is officially married into the family.”

The Imperial Guard said, “What’s the difference? Master Cao is destined to defeat the league chiefs of the three leagues in this upcoming League War, and his name will be made known across the whole of Tianwu Kingdom. When that time comes, I’m afraid that Xiao Cao will be nothing more than a toy for Master Cao. Only Princess Meng Li is worthy enough for him.”

“You!” Elder Qi was infuriated by these people.

“What? Do you want to fight? You are merely a butler of the Qi Clan. If I kill you right now and slap on a few penalties, that will be enough for you to die a few times over,” the guard said coldly.

Ling’er was the first to rise up in anger. “This group of Imperial Guards is so arrogant – Brother Ye Mo, teach them a lesson.”

“I’ve been thinking of attacking this entire time!”

Ye Mo immediately charged forward, before slowly walking to Elder Qi’s side, saying, “Manager Qi, the Empress ordered you to buy a purple jade chalice just now. How is it going?”

Elder Qi looked at Ye Mo and was first taken by surprise before feeling something move in his sleeve. Sticking his hand out, he saw a chalice that had already been shattered.

He immediately understood what was going on, saying, “I’ve already made the purchase for the Empress, but these three guys broke it.”

Hearing that, the three Imperial Guards’ expressions changed immediately – breaking the Empress’ things resulted in painful, sorry deaths.

“Old fool, what rubbish are you spouting? There clearly wasn’t a purple jade chalice on you before. You are obviously slandering us.”

One of the slightly older guards cast his sight on Ye Mo. Pointing to Ye Mo’s nose, he said angrily, “I understand now – it’s you who is trying to cause trouble. Who gave you the courage to make fun of the Imperial Guards?”

“Who gave you the courage to still be so arrogant after destroying the Empress’ purple jade chalice?” Ye Mo said in a carefree tone, his arms folded in front of his chest.

Looking at the three Imperial Guards, all with expressions of fury, and who looked like they were about to attack at any moment, Elder Qi could not help but remind Ye Mo softly. “Ye Mo, these three men are all in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. Don’t be rash. If you end up incurring Cao Zheng’s wrath again, I’m afraid even Xiao Cao won’t be able to save you this time.”

The leader among the guards was enraged as a giant blade instantly generated in his hand.

“Die!”

He charged towards Ye Mo, unleashing a light blade that pierced through the air and bore down over Ye Mo’s head.

As the light blade struck Ye Mo, everyone surrounded them could see that Ye Mo was unmoved and assumed that he was frozen to the spot in shock. As the light blade struck Ye Mo, he was immediately sent flying backwards, far away.

“Clueless kid. This is the punishment for insulting the Imperial Guards,” the leader among them mocked, as the other two guards also broke into laughter.

“Oh no, the Imperial Guards are attacking people for no reason. What happened to the state law?”

Rubbing his head, Ye Mo rolled over, acting as if he was in extreme pain.

“Haha, state law? Let me tell you, in the Heaven’s Wall City, the Cao Clan Imperial Guards are the state law.”

The three of them broke into wild laughter – the man before them was actually talking about useless state laws to them.

“The three of you, representing the state law?”

Suddenly, a sharp, cold voice could be heard from behind the three of them. Following that, a thought flashed across their minds as they immediately realized that something was not right.

Trembling, the three of them turned around and saw an extremely beautiful face. Their legs immediately turned to jelly as they immediately knelt on the ground.

“Your Majesty!”

The three of them immediately paid their respects, as did the crowd after seeing the situation unfold.

“That purple jade chalice is something I told Elder Qi to buy. Now that the three of you shattered my chalice, how are you going to make this right again?” Qi Ying’s eyebrow twitched slightly, first taking a look at Ye Mo, who was rolling around on the ground, before saying.

“We will pay!” The three of them said in unison.

“Pay? With your lives?” Qi Ying mocked.

“We beg for you forgiveness, Your Majesty.”

Anxiously, the three of them kowtowed repeatedly, their heads hitting the ground and making a rhythmic thudding sound over and over again.

“The three of you, as a warning, cut off an arm each.” Qi Ying said, ignoring the three of them as she walked in front of Ye Mo. She said, “You, follow me. Tell me everything that happened in detail and explain how my purple jade chalice ended up like this.”

After that, Qi Ying left, as did Ye Mo, who followed behind her.

Behind them, pained screams could be heard – the three of them all cut off a limb each in order to keep their lives.

While Qi Ying had yet to officially marry the Emperor, almost everyone knew that her future status and position could be even higher than the Queen.

Standing atop one of the mountain ranges outside of the Heaven’s Wall City, Ye Mo and Qi Ying looked at the cold moon in the air and felt the spring breeze in silence.

Looking at the moon, Ye Mo let out a big sigh. “You finally agreed to see me.”

“You’re going overboard now. Even Xiao Cao had to sacrifice her eternal happiness in order to save you. Is this what you really want to see?” Qi Ying said with a cold expression.

“Do you still have so little faith in me?” Ye Mo revealed a bitter smile as he shook his head, saying, “I remember back in Limestone City when you said that you will give me a chance if I successfully become League Chief. Now, I will tell you the truth – I’m definitely going to get the Qingyun League Chief spot. Not only that, I will also become the champion of the League War.”

Ye Mo looked at Qi Ying after speaking.

Hearing the passionate words of a man a few years younger than herself and looking at his face, which had matured over the years, Qi Ying’s heart stuttered.

Ye Mo slowly embraced Qi Ying from behind, saying, “Sister Qi Ying, this is my first time holding you with such intimacy. I know the difference between us is still comparable to heaven and earth, but you have given me the motivation to take the steps necessary so I could strive to become who I am today. Can’t you take a step forward for me too?”

A man who was not even in the Spirit Cultivating Realm maturing so much in not even a year’s time – exactly how much effort did he put in for this?

“I’ll look forward to your performance in the League War!”
