Supreme Sword Sovereign

"This..."

Upon hearing Gu Han's recount, Jiang Feng was speechless.

For some reason.

He suddenly felt a bit of sympathy for that Fatty he had never met.

To be so ruthlessly tricked and still survive, that luck... was truly extraordinary!

If it were him, he feared he would have died eight times over!

To the side.

Manager Li was on high alert.

Why did he suddenly feel... that His Highness's situation had become even more dangerous?

No, no!

After returning, he must tell His Highness to stay away from this guy, otherwise... who knows, he might be tricked to death one day!

"Let's not talk about him."

Gu Han shook his head and suddenly asked, "The man just now, was he a Martial Academy Instructor?"

"Indeed."

Jiang Feng nodded.

"His name is Yu Hua, one of the Instructors at the Martial Academy, with a cultivation level at the seventh layer of Spirit Profound. Among the Instructors, his strength is considered above average. Brother Gu, what exactly caused the conflict between you and him, to the point where he disregarded everything to chase and kill you in the streets?"

"Actually."

Gu Han narrowed his eyes.

"It was also my first time meeting him..."

He briefly shared his recent experiences with the two, of course, he was vague about the secret of the token, glossing over it with a single sentence. It wasn't that he didn't trust them, but once this secret was exposed, it would be a huge trouble for both him and the Murong Family.

Demonic Beast rampage.

Liu Tong.

Murong Family.

Yu Hua...

The two were dumbfounded.

How could they have imagined that in just a short month of not seeing each other, Gu Han had experienced so much.

The level of excitement.

Was truly unheard of!

The two instantly felt that Fatty's luck was far from being as great as Gu Han's!

"That man is called Yu Hua."

After a long while.

Manager Li seemed to have digested the information and said faintly, "Indeed, he is a Martial Academy Instructor, and I've heard that Yu Hua's family is not prosperous. You killed his nephew outside the city that day, no wonder he wants to chase you down."

"Actually."

Jiang Feng sighed.

"The Martial Academy is the foundation of our Great Qi, bound by its own rules. He is just an Instructor and wouldn't dare to act recklessly. Moreover, once you enter the Martial Academy, as long as Brother Gu stays with me, there won't be any problems..."

Manager Li listened with a pounding heart.

Your Highness!

Think twice!

Following this guy, wouldn't that be jumping into a pit of fire!

"You're going too?"

Gu Han was a bit surprised.

"Hm? Your cultivation level... have you opened your meridians?"

"Indeed."

Jiang Feng nodded.

"The technique that Brother Gu gave me is extremely compatible with me, coupled with the cold energy I've accumulated over the years, my cultivation level naturally progressed quickly. Speaking of which..."

His expression turned somewhat somber.

"Going to the Martial Academy to cultivate and joining the upper sects was my late mother's wish. Unfortunately, now that I have the chance, she can no longer see it."

"Your Highness."

Manager Li hurriedly comforted him.

"With your special constitution and a Heavenly Rank Technique at your side, your future is boundless. The Queen Mother, knowing this from the afterlife, must be at peace."

"Valued?"

Jiang Feng laughed at himself.

"With my elder brother around, how would they value me?"

"Your elder brother?"

Gu Han was curious.

"Who is he?"

"Him?"

Mentioning this elder brother.

Jiang Feng's expression became complicated.

"He is a natural Fire Spirit Body, taken as a disciple by a senior from the upper sects years ago, hailed as the number one of the younger generation in Great Qi!"

"Number one?"

Gu Han raised an eyebrow.

"Just don't know if he's got real skills."

"Whether he has real skills is another matter."

Manager Li couldn't help but interject.

"Do you know, this Crown Prince has another identity?"

"Identity?"

Gu Han was startled.

"What identity?"

"That Liu Tong who knelt before you... is the Crown Prince's own cousin!"

"Cousin?"

Gu Han frowned.

"No wonder, this person acts so arrogantly, it turns out he has a big backer. But... our little grudge shouldn't alarm the Crown Prince, right?"

"..."

Manager Li was speechless.

In front of everyone, he knelt down to you.

Is this grudge small or not?

Don't you have any idea!

"Tsk!"

Thinking of this, he said with a hint of sarcasm, "That Liu Ying, really not a good thing! And to think, Your Highness was still..."

"Cough cough..."

Jiang Feng's face turned red.

"Don't talk nonsense, I was admiring her, admiring!"

To the side.

Manager Li and Gu Han exchanged glances, and for once, they surprisingly agreed.

Pfft!

...

Inside the Martial Academy.

Because it hadn't opened yet, it seemed particularly quiet.

On a cobblestone path, an old, hunched-over servant was continuously sweeping the fallen leaves.

"Out of the way!"

Suddenly.

A cold shout came, startling him.

"Instructor Yu?"

Seeing the newcomer, he quickly paid his respects.

"You're back..."

Yu Hua didn't even glance at him, walking straight past.

"Alas..."

The old man wasn't angry, continuing to sweep the leaves while muttering to himself.

"Narrow-minded."

"Full of resentment."

"Your path of cultivation... won't go far!"

In the distance.

Yu Hua naturally didn't hear these words.

At this moment.

All he could think about was how to deal with Gu Han.

"Instructor Yu?"

Just then.

Someone called out to him.

"How did it go, did you handle the matter?"

"Don't mention it!"

Yu Hua's face was dark.

"Just about to make a move, and the Seventh Prince messed it up..."

The man's surname was Jiang, also a Martial Academy Instructor, and they had a good relationship on ordinary days. Naturally, he didn't hide anything and briefly explained the situation.

"The Seventh Prince?"

Instructor Jiang frowned slightly.

"If he is protecting him, it will be difficult for Instructor Yu to make a move again."

"This grudge..."

Yu Hua gritted his teeth with hatred.

"I must avenge it!"

"Actually... I have a way."

"What way!"

"Perhaps... we should meet with the Crown Prince."

"Him?"

Yu Hua was disappointed.

"What kind of person is the Crown Prince? It's questionable whether he will see me at all, and even if he does, why would he go against his own brother for an outsider like me?"

"Brother?"

Instructor Jiang laughed.

"The most ruthless is the imperial family. Is there any brotherly affection to speak of in the royal family? If there was, why would all the princes, except for the Seventh, be sent to the frontiers, never willing to return to the Capital? Moreover, Instructor Yu has been running around these past few days, I'm afraid you don't know yet, the Crown Prince... is coming to the Martial Academy!"

"What!"

Yu Hua was somewhat puzzled.

"Isn't he already designated as a disciple of the upper sects? What's he doing at the Martial Academy?"

"I heard."

Instructor Jiang looked around and lowered his voice.

"The Crown Prince wants to take complete control of the Martial Academy before entering the upper sects... this... might be the intention of that senior from the upper sects."

"You mean..."

"Exactly!"

Instructor Jiang nodded.

"Now is the perfect opportunity to pledge allegiance to him. As long as we cooperate well and help him take control of the Martial Academy... Instructor Yu, by then, when you want revenge, how could the Seventh Prince dare to stop you?"

"Good, good, good!"

Yu Hua's eyes shone brighter.

"Thanks for the reminder, Brother Jiang! I'll go visit the Crown Prince right away!"

...

In the inner city.

At the center.

A splendid and imposing building stood out, towering alone.

It was the residence of the Crown Prince, Jiang Hong!

Inside the hall.

"Cousin!"

Liu Tong was full of grievance and unwillingness.

"I've never been so humiliated in my life, you must avenge me!"

"I know."

The one who spoke was a young man sitting at the head.

The Crown Prince, Jiang Hong!

He was born with red hair and eyebrows, handsome in appearance, and his body seemed to radiate a fiery aura, raising the temperature of the hall considerably.

"After the Martial Academy opens, I will teach him a lesson."

"Thank you, cousin, thank you!"

Liu Tong was overjoyed.

"Your Highness."

By Liu Tong's side.

Liu Ying leaned forward slightly, hinting, "That Gu Han has the backing of the Murong Family, wouldn't this move be..."

"No worries."

Jiang Hong was obviously much warmer towards Liu Ying.

No wonder, with Liu Ying's looks, over ninety percent of men would be moved.

He was no exception.

"In the Murong Family, he is a distinguished guest, but once he leaves the Murong Family, he is nothing. Besides, with my master around, I expect the Murong Family will give me some face."

In his words.

He didn't take Gu Han seriously.

"Liu Miss."

He stared at Liu Ying, not hiding his admiration and amazement.

"Would you be interested in going to the upper sects?"

"The upper sects?"

Liu Ying was stunned, her voice trembling with excitement.

"Me... do I have a chance to go?"

Her talent, although not bad, was far from comparable to geniuses like Jiang Hong. Relying on Liu Yuan to enter the Martial Academy was her limit, and the thought of joining the Jade Lifting Sect was almost impossible.

"Of course!"

Seeing her moved.

Jiang Hong smiled.

"If it were the usual way, the hope would naturally be very slim, but Miss Liu, don't forget, with my master in the upper sects, just a word from him, and taking one more disciple is no big deal!"

"Your Highness!"

Liu Ying blushed, momentarily losing her composure.

"If I could join the upper sects, I... I..."

With Liu Tong beside her.

She still wanted to save some face and didn't finish her sentence.

But Liu Tong wasn't stupid.

He understood.

From this moment on, the beauty beside him would never be his again.

For a moment.

He felt sour in his heart, but due to Jiang Hong's authority, he could only suppress the bitterness and not show the slightest.

"Great!"

Jiang Hong was naturally very satisfied.

"In that case, then..."

"Your Highness."

At this moment.

A servant came to the front of the hall.

"Martial Academy Instructors Yu Hua and Jiang Yi seek an audience."

"Them?"

Initially displeased by the interruption, Jiang Hong suddenly smiled.

"Never mind, they've already received the news."

When you're just trying to make great content at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

"That's good, let them in!"

...

Inside the inn.

Qian Liu was somewhat distracted.

The commotion caused by Yu Hua's pursuit of Gu Han was huge, and he naturally wanted to know the outcome.

Just as he was pondering.

A figure walked in from the outside.

"This guest."

He instinctively greeted.

"You... Hm? Young man, is it you? Are you... are you alright?"

In front of him.

Gu Han was covered in dried blood, his injuries were not light, but far from fatal.

Qian Liu was secretly shocked.

Earlier...

He had indeed underestimated him!@@novelbin@@

"I'm fine."

Gu Han shook his head.

"It's just a pity, something went wrong, and I didn't make it to the Treasure Pavilion."

"..."

Qian Liu was speechless.

That's not the point!

What you should be talking about now is the pursuit, why are you so calm, what does it mean!

At this moment.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of the two.

Murong Chuan!

"Senior."

Gu Han gave a salute.

"Thank you for the warning today!"

This thanks.

Was sincere.

If it weren't for Qian Liu's warning, coupled with Murong Chuan's severe injury to Yu Hua a few days ago, he might not have lasted until Manager Li took action today.

"I thought."

Murong Chuan smiled.

"You would blame me."

"No."

Gu Han shook his head.

"I've only met Senior once, and you have no obligation to take action for me. Moreover, you have already helped me a lot. My foster father said that one should not be too greedy in life!"

"Oh?"

Murong Chuan raised an eyebrow.

"Your foster father seems to be quite a character!"

"He... has passed away."

"What a pity."

Murong Chuan shook his head, then asked, "How about it, this person has a deep hatred for you, do you need me to take action?"

"For free?"

"...Of course, you'll need to use a token!"

"Then forget it."

Gu Han decisively shook his head.

"I feel... I can still hold on, and with Senior's strength, using it to kill a Martial Academy Instructor, it seems like a loss no matter how I think about it."

To the side.

Qian Liu was dumbfounded.

This...

How can you treat a life-threatening matter like a business deal?

Your life is almost gone.

Who cares if it's a loss!

"Alright then."

Murong Chuan could see that Gu Han had some cards up his sleeve and didn't press the issue.

"If you need me, just come find me."

"Senior..."

Gu Han thought for a moment.

"Actually, there is something I'd like to ask of you."

"What is it?"

"If I'm not around, I hope you can take good care of her."

Today's events had made him vigilant.

Inside the Capital, it was fine.

But if he left the city, he would never dare to bring Ah-Sha with him.

"This girl..."

Murong Chuan was curious.

"Is she very important to you?"

"More important than my life."

"..."

Murong Chuan fell silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

"Don't worry, as long as this girl is in the inn, even if the King of Heaven comes, he won't be able to touch a hair on her head. This is my personal promise, no token needed!"

"Thank you, Senior!"

Gu Han bowed deeply.

"I owe you a favor for this!"

"It's nothing."

Murong Chuan didn't mind.

At this moment, he had no idea how heavy a favor from Gu Han would weigh in the future.

...

Inside the Capital.

The streets and alleys were abuzz with talk of the chase.

Of course, only a few people knew the final outcome, the rest were left to wild speculation.

"That young man was turned into mush by Instructor Yu's palm, a tragic death!"

"Nonsense! He didn't die at all, with Fatty taking the fall, Instructor Yu didn't catch up to him, and he escaped into the Barbaric Wilderness Forest!"

"Is that so, cough cough... I was a bit far away that day, I must have seen it wrong, the one turned into mush must have been that Fatty."

"..."

Such discussions were heard everywhere, almost sweeping through the Capital.

However, as another explosive piece of news spread, the discussions about Gu Han came to an abrupt halt!

That long-absent.

Natural Fire Spirit Body.

The number one genius of Great Qi.

The Crown Prince Jiang Hong, was coming to the Martial Academy!
