The receptionist checked the documents, felt a chill, and became even more respectful, quickly checking the information on the computer.

A moment later, she looked up and said, "Gentlemen, according to the records, Ms. Gu Zhiqi did indeed check in yesterday, accompanied by a child registered as 'Wang Nezha'."

"They stayed in our hotel's top-floor presidential suite, room 3601."

"I've found the right place!" Cui Kaicheng thought to himself with secret joy.

Thank you.

Wang Jialuo retrieved his identification and gave Cui Kaicheng a wink.

"Let's go up and take a look."

Without further delay, the two turned and headed towards the elevator area leading to the guest rooms.

However, just as they were about to step into the elevator, they brushed past a middle-aged man who had just come out of the elevator.

The man was about forty years old, dressed in a well-tailored dark gray Tang suit. He walked with a steady gait and had an ordinary-looking face, but his eyes occasionally flashed with a sharp light, and his temperament was reserved and profound.

However, what is most eye-catching is the black sword sheath he carries on his back, with the sword hilt exposed. It is ancient and heavy, and exudes an indescribable sense of vicissitude.

Just as they were brushing past each other, Cui Kaicheng and Wang Jialuo stopped in their tracks almost simultaneously, their faces showing surprise.

The man in the Tang suit seemed to have noticed their gazes as well. He didn't stop walking, but merely turned his head and glanced at them indifferently. His eyes were calm and unwavering, but they felt as if an invisible sword had lightly grazed their skin, sending chills down their spines.

"Ye Yang?!"

Wang Jialuo uttered two words in a low voice, his gentle and refined face turning solemn, and his eyes filled with apprehension.

Ye family, Ye Yang!

This name carries significant weight among aristocratic circles and top weapon wielders.

Unlike Ye Hong, who was hot-tempered, arrogant, and indulged in pleasure, Ye Yang was not well-known and kept a low profile, but he was one of the true pillars of the Ye family.

The ancient sword he carried on his back was none other than the legendary divine weapon, Shaoqi Sword, which was on par with Gan Jiang and Mo Xie!

The internet has a saying, "Where is Gan Jiang now? Only Shao Ju shines brightly," praising his unparalleled brilliance.

Although it is rumored to be Li Bai's work, it also reflects the high value of the Shaoqi Sword.

Many people know that the Sword of Goujian, King of Yue, is the most famous sword in the world, but in the eyes of a connoisseur like Wang Jialuo, the legacy and power of the Shaoqi Sword are absolutely no less impressive.

Cui Kaicheng also put away his cynical smile.

He turned around, watching Ye Yang's retreating figure disappear through the hotel's revolving doors with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty. He lowered his voice and said, "That guy came down from upstairs... Could he have already beaten us to it and succeeded?"

Wang Jialuo's face was somewhat gloomy. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "Just because we didn't see him doesn't mean he succeeded. Given Ye Yang's personality and strength, if he had really succeeded, he would either have already fled far away or wouldn't have let us see him at all."

"He just swaggered down like that..."

"Did we come up empty-handed?"

Cui Kaicheng raised an eyebrow.

"Why don't you go up and ask?"

Wang Jialuo gave him an annoyed look: "Why don't you go ask? Or why don't you go and chat with that 'Young Master Huanghuang'?"

"Hahaha, Brother Wang, you're scared."

"Brother Cui, don't be so quick-witted and spoil my mood."

The two exchanged a sarcastic remark, yet both saw a deep sense of apprehension towards Ye Yang in each other's eyes.

This apprehension stemmed not only from the heirloom "Shaoju Sword," but also from a rumor circulating within the circle:

Ye Yang is likely one of the earliest experts, besides Master Zhang from Wudang Mountain, to steadily enter the Innate Realm.

Now, it's even possible that one foot is already on the threshold of an even more profound realm!

Even those from powerful families like the Wang and Cui clans would never dare to be arrogant in the face of such a person.

"Since we're already here..."

"Let's go up and check first." Wang Jialuo took a deep breath and pressed the elevator button.

……

Outside the hotel.

An inconspicuous black minivan was quietly parked in a temporary parking space on the side of the road.

In the back seat of the car sat a stunningly beautiful young woman dressed in magnificent ancient costume.

She wore a phoenix crown, adorned with swaying pearls and jade, and a brocade robe. Her face was flawless, and her temperament was noble and otherworldly. She seemed to be an empress who had stepped out of an ancient painting, yet she was also extremely young.

The girl was none other than the incredibly mysterious Gao Yuexi, who topped the "Beauty List" and was hailed by busybodies as the most beautiful woman in the world.

Beside her sat a middle-aged woman who still possessed charm and a capable demeanor, whom we call Aunt Ming.

Aunt Ming peered through the car window and sharply scanned the hotel entrance, just in time to see Ye Yang walking out alone.

Not long after, Wang Jialuo and Cui Kaicheng were seen leaving the hotel quickly, looking somewhat dejected.

A slight smile played on her lips as she chuckled softly, "Miss, the Wang family, the Cui family, and that 'sword fanatic' from the Ye family all came up empty-handed."

Gao Yuexi's gaze remained calm, falling on her slender fingertips adorned with nail polish. Upon hearing this, she simply said, "Aunt Ming, aren't we the same? It was expected."

"If he could be so easily trapped in a hotel, then he would have failed to live up to his name as an extraterrestrial being."

"Also, don't peek at Ye Yang and the others, or they'll notice you staring."

"Without entering the Innate Realm, one cannot know its wonders. In the Innate Realm, the physical body is pure and the mind is free of dust. One is one step closer to the 'Heaven-Human Interaction,' and one's spiritual senses are awakened, making one extremely sensitive to impending crises."

Aunt Ming nodded quickly and rolled up the car window.

She couldn't help but glance at Gao Yuexi with a sigh.

Even though she was a woman and had served by her side for many years, she was still often amazed by the young lady's unparalleled beauty and the innate majesty of "the mother of the world" brought by her phoenix coronet and wedding gown.

This beauty and poise have long transcended ordinary physical appearance, approaching the realm of Tao.

"Miss……"

Aunt Ming hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is this extraterrestrial life form really that important?"

"I have heard that the Star Kingdom across the ocean obtained the remains of extraterrestrial life and the wreckage of spaceships many years ago, and even mastered a lot of advanced technology based on them."

Gao Yuexi finally raised her eyes.

Those were a pair of beautiful eyes, as warm and noble as purple jade, and they seemed to hold a pool of autumn water, clear yet lively.

"Aunt Ming, Wang Nezha... or rather Xia Xinghan, his value goes far beyond just extraterrestrial life."

"He is the one who laid the foundation for modern martial arts and was awarded the title of 'Martial Ancestor' by the state."

"The Martial Ancestor?!"

Aunt Ming was truly shocked this time, her eyes widening.

Although she was a member of the Gao family, the specific information about the Martial Ancestor was a top secret even within the aristocratic families, and very few people knew about it.

"That brat... he's actually the Martial Ancestor?!"

"This...how is this possible..."

Who would believe that the martial arts of the world were established by a three-year-old child?

This isn't a fantasy, this is utter insanity!

"good."

Gao Yuexi nodded slightly: "Nowadays, among the high-ranking members of various forces, the level of secrecy regarding Xia Xinghan's identity as the 'Martial Ancestor' is even higher than that of the 'Extraterrestrial Life' itself."

"Three years have passed, and because of the nine-fold gene lock, extraterrestrial life has become less attractive to some forces."

Aunt Ming processed this astonishing information, then thought, "I suspect that each family has come with different objectives this time?"
