Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

Chu Yan was considering whether to take the sword back and place it next to Aunt Nancy so that she would not have a good sleep.

Considering that time would be wasted if they just waited like this, the brother and sister decided to do something else in the meantime.

There is a training ground in the small military area. Similar to the Adventurer's Guild, the underground was also hollowed out, and after strengthening the supporting force, a three-story underground place was built.

From training grounds to warehouses for material storage, everything is available.

And this news has been kept secret from the outside world. If the empire has the bad intention of provoking disputes one day, the empire can hide people underground in advance and live secretly for a month or two. When the people of various forces are not prepared one day, a large number of bread men will immediately emerge from the underground.

"Can I train here as I please?"

Chu Yan wanted to transform into a "Terrible Upright Ape", but the conditions for this were not available at the Adventurer's Guild's training ground. There were many people there, and it was located in the central city area. His domineering aura after the transformation might cause panic.

"Yes, each floor has a ceiling similar to a magic barrier. If we really don't want our aura to be detected, we can go to the negative third floor."

Princess Ye Na had originally planned to start training directly on the underground floor, but after her brother said so, she picked up the knife and led the way underground.

Chu Yan couldn't help but sigh that this empire was truly perfect and comprehensive in every aspect.

I really want to take a sip of the cold noodles and then utter the classic line "This country is so terrifying, it will become a big problem in the future!"

The brother and sister did not continue chatting. They each occupied an open space and started practicing on the spot.

This type of training does not require being hit with a wooden stake; simply trying to use one's own skills over and over again can help improve one's proficiency.

Chu Yan looked at the height of the ceiling, confirmed that it was high enough, and directly performed [Demon Dragon Transformation].

A black dragon with two horns on his head stood at the deepest part of the imperial training ground. The horns on his head were almost

733

It's about to hit the ceiling.

Chu Yan opened his eyes, and with his first breath after the transformation, the lava spider web patterns on his body were ignited, and in an instant, a powerful flame burst out.

Just standing there, he was like an awakened volcano.

If he wanted to, he could burn large tracts of soil with just a fart.

Princess Ye Na reminded: "Be careful, just change back and forth. If you make any random moves, the small military area above may collapse."

The dark dragon man who looked like an extremely ferocious beast nodded repeatedly as if obeying the silver-haired woman's orders, and said sensibly:

"Got it. I will pay attention to it. I will not be able to squander my soul power at will."

Princess Ye Na walked to Chu Yan's feet and touched his rough skin at close range. She felt a burning sensation before her hand even touched it.

This does nothing. A normal punch to the chest can probably fry the opponent's skin to medium rare, provided that the opponent is not an angel or something weird.

Princess Ye Na did not pay too much attention to Chu Yan and quickly started her own training. She tried to use [Heart Slash] in vain and then familiarized herself with [Flowing Shadow Sword Technique] which had been modified several times by the Cursed Witch.

It is nice to have everything handed to you, and just wait for the Cursed Witch to slowly help improve it, but Princess Ye Na still wants to give it a try, to use her comprehension as a swordsman to feel the wisdom of this swordsmanship.

No matter what, the swordsmanship of the Flowing Shadow Swordmaster was indeed changed by the Cursed Witch to the point where only the name remains, but the changes to [Heart Slash] are not many!

This is enough to show that even for a terrifying existence like the Cursed Witch, ordinary geniuses can reach the height called "limit" through their own experience.

There is no need to compare talent with the Cursed Witch, it is enough to be proficient in one skill.

Then maybe she could use her understanding of sword skills to create her own sword skills. She still doesn't have anything that truly belongs to her.

It is precisely because of this that Princess Ye Na never feels that she is stronger than the Sword Saint of the Flowing Shadow, even though she has already defeated him.

Once she has her own creation, even if it is just one move or one style, Princess Ye Na will immediately find the Cursed Witch to improve it!

The result we strive for is improvement, not the answer of "this trick can be deleted".

"How can I create something of my own with my sword...?"

Inside the tower, the imperial camp.

After receiving the contact from Princess Ye Na and learning the information given by Chu Yan, Feng Qin was surprised for a moment.

It’s not that Chu Yan’s suggestion is bad, but it’s too “ordinary”, “ordinary” to the point that it makes people feel like they have suddenly realized something.

So there is such an idea?

The solution Chu Yan gave was not aimed at resolving the trend of thought, nor was hesitating about whether this thought should exist or not from the perspective of the rulers. Instead, it allowed scholars to focus on reality and see the urgency of the current situation.

If scholars want to continue to be confused, then they will most likely never get the answers to their questions.

On the contrary, if scholars focus their energy on dealing with urgent issues and return to the empire's technical think tank, they may have a long time to explore the truth in the future.

The top leaders of the empire have witnessed with their own eyes how the country has grown stronger step by step through the development of magical machinery, so their thinking has become stuck in a rut and sometimes they cannot turn around.

All the difficulties that had arisen in the research of magical machinery were overcome one by one by scholars, making the empire more powerful. In the minds of many people, the options for dealing with difficult problems were either one or two.

Either overcome it, or give up, surrender, and apologize. There is no third option of compromise.

Fengqin immediately contacted Emperor Yama and reported this idea to him.

When Emperor Yama heard this, he was also stunned. His pondering voice revealed his hesitation. He asked:

Are scholars willing to put aside their doubts and confusion and return to their research work on other projects? 】

"I think so. The more they want to resolve their confusion, the more they should follow this advice and buy more time to think about the future. If someone refuses, then he may not have the intention to resolve the issue, but just wants to delay the situation, and may not even have a sense of urgency to consider the survival of the empire."

The situation among scholars is also complex. Some who enjoy interpersonal struggles may deliberately create confusion and confuse the public in order to gain better research projects, funding, and resource support.

If this kind of black sheep can be found, he should be eliminated first, no matter how great his contributions have been!

[......Okay, I will personally express this to the Imperial scholars! Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, this is a suggestion worthy of reward. Is this the solution you came up with, Fengqun?]

"No, it was a plan given by the brother that Ye Na met outside, an outstanding dragon-born boy!"

*

The training ground has been in use for almost an hour. Chu Yan has been concentrating for a long time, feeling the speed at which his soul power is consumed and capturing the changes every minute and every second.

It is difficult to know yourself and recognize your own abilities.

Who can tell for sure whether my current self-perception is arrogance or self-deprecation?

He glanced at the time at the training ground and said with regret:

"It's almost four o'clock, and the afternoon is almost over. I didn't get the chance today. It seems that the previous few times of shining were really too lucky.

734

Lucky."

When the minute hand passed a mark, Chu Yan heard Princess Ye Nai's hurried cry:

"Chu Yan, hurry up, shine!"

The silver-haired woman rushed to the front of the demon dragon man at great speed, raised the sword in her hand, and the long-awaited light flashed on the sword.

Each time the light appears, it is very short-lived, and a moment of hesitation will result in missing the opportunity.

When Chu Yan heard his sister's reminder, he forgot that he was still in the transformation state and subconsciously hurriedly showed his weapon.

Princess Ye Na was stunned. She didn't know that her brother could pull out a weapon in such a state. The weapon was bigger than her!

"What are you thinking about? I can't even hold this thing with my hands and feet, how can I help you enter the nightmare space!" she scolded angrily.

"Sorry, I forgot!"

While apologizing, Chu Yan ended his demon dragon transformation, returned to his normal size, and came in front of Princess Ye Na.

Even ordinary non-commissioned officers do not have access to this underground training ground. Right now, only Princess Ye Na and Aunt Organ have permission to enter, so there is no need to worry about outsiders.

If we rush to the locker room or something like that, we might be too late!

"...Is it okay here?" Chu Yan asked uncertainly.

"It doesn't matter. What's more important is to be able to see the Cursed Witch!"

"Then I'll lie down and serve as a cushion for you, Sister Ye Na."

Chapter 241 Return to the Tianling Town

......

"When this campaign is over, I will probably go home all sweaty and tell my mom how difficult it is to supervise the dress."

Chu Yan muttered to himself, and just before the sword's halo disappeared, he barely succeeded in entering the nightmare space.

The brother and sister regained consciousness in another dimension. They looked at each other, and confirmed that the other was safe and sound, and smiled again.

The "ritual" to enter the nightmare space is for a man and a woman to embrace each other in a charming and ambiguous manner, and then pour out their magic power.

I was a little shy before, but after a few such intense and hurried "races", I felt like I was playing a game and having a helpless interaction.

There was definitely no resistance, but even the normal ambiguous atmosphere was gone and it became an extremely natural interaction, which really made Ye Na feel complicated.

The silver-haired princess took a look at her body. She had a normal black windbreaker and soft armor, and could summon the Dusk Blade normally.

Holding the hilt of the sword in her hand, Princess Ye Na felt an incomparable sense of security in her heart!

She asked, "By the way, which period of the Cursed Witch's dream will this be?"

The surrounding environment has not yet fully emerged, but some of the scenery can be vaguely seen.

The forest road was dark and quiet, and the light ahead was quite clear.

Chu Yan also tried [Demon Dragon Transformation] and after confirming that it could be performed normally, he quickly canceled it, not wanting to waste his soul power.

He couldn't answer the question raised by Princess Ye Na. If he had the ability, Chu Yan would definitely choose a dream where monsters appeared frequently, seek advice from the witch mother, and seize the opportunity to practice with monsters.

"I think as long as it's not about dealing with interpersonal relationships, it's fine."

Princess Ye Na pondered over her brother's words and roughly understood that he was talking about a dream in which the various forces in the Age of Gods wanted to pray for guidance and enlightenment from the Celestial Spirits, and would directly stab them in the back once they received the guidance.

Judging from the experience of the Wild Boar King, the Curse Witch has probably encountered many similar things.

"If we run into that kind of situation, we can help the witch mother vent her anger and deal with those treacherous people in advance. Isn't that great?"

"But we can't change the facts. It seems that we are helping the witch mother to vent her anger, but in fact, we are the only ones who are venting our anger. We seem to be standing up for her, but everything happened in the distant past..."

"It seems so." Princess Ye Na nodded sadly.

No matter how indignant the brother and sister were, no matter how much they defended the Witch of Wailing in their dreams and tried their best to eliminate her troubles, everything she encountered had already become a foregone conclusion.

When the dream ended, Chu Yan and Ye Na still felt that they had not vented their anger enough. They had only punished those people in their delusion, which was like deceiving themselves.

Not only will it not solve the actual problem, it can also easily lead to breast duct obstruction due to anger.

Chu Yan didn't want to say so many discouraging words, so he changed the subject and said:

"Of course, if I really encounter that kind of dream, I have to take action when it's time. If there are no monsters, I can only use those guys to practice!"

After a few words of casual chat, the dream became completely clear.

The brother and sister who were talking and laughing froze almost at the same time, their faces filled with dull shock, after seeing the scene in front of them.

The Tianling tribe town!

They returned to the Tianling town, and where they were standing now was the forest path in front of the town.

If you walk a few steps forward, you can see a wide and distant view on the right, and a quiet town built on the mountain on the left. A few children met the two people, and then a nameless beautiful woman called out to the children from the high ground of the town...

The initial experience was vividly present in Chu Yan and Ye Na’s minds.

Princess Ye Na couldn't believe it and said hesitantly, "Really...are we back to this place again?"

Chu Yan was unable to respond for a moment.

735

Many thoughts emerge.

This should be the first time they return to the same dream. Does that mean that as long as they follow their previous experience and go through it step by step again, and establish a good relationship with the Cursed Witch before the end at dusk, they will be able to pass it... ?

No, the key to breaking through last time was actually the [Heavenly Spirit Realm].

Building a good relationship with the Cursed Witch is a process, and obtaining the [Heavenly Spirit Realm] is the most critical result.

Chu Yan quickly summoned the "key" in his palm and tried to sense the rune on it with his mind. He breathed a sigh of relief:

"If the [Heavenly Spirit Realm] can sense normally, does that mean that I can end this dream now?"
