Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. Since you've said so, Xingchen... then I won't go to Hanwu's place."

Seeing Ye Yuchan finally give in, Duan Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, and a faint smile slowly appeared on his lips: "I will help you look for the attacker. As for Han Wu and the other side, it's best if you don't go. The risk is too great."

"Ah."

Ye Yuchan nodded, then looked at Zhang Ruoxue, who had already been healed.

The black-haired girl in a sailor uniform was lying quietly on the wooden bed, her chest rising and falling rhythmically, and her previously furrowed brows had relaxed.

And under the watchful eyes of Ye Yuchan and Duan Xingchen, it emitted a faint snoring sound.

—She slept quite soundly.

Duan Xingchen smiled gently, a comforting smile as gentle as a spring breeze appearing on her delicate and pure face.

"She's fine now. She just needs to rest for a while, and she'll be as energetic as ever again."

"Mm." Ye Yuchan nodded and thanked Duan Xingchen, then helped the completely sleeping Zhang Ruoxue to her feet and walked towards the door: "Thanks, Xingchen~"

"No need."

Duan Xingchen let out a breath, suppressing the surging spiritual energy within his body. Watching Ye Yuchan push open the door, he added another question out of concern.

"Yu Chan, take a good rest these days. The three-day academy festival is coming soon, so Han Wu and the others shouldn't go."

"I know~"

Ye Yuchan turned her head and gave Duan Xingchen a reassuring smile.

"I definitely won't go~"

That is impossible.

night.

Near the central courtyard, in front of the gate leading to the Han family's territory, the silver-haired girl silently yawned.

"To believe something like that... this girl is too naive..."

Indeed, going to the Han family's territory alone would easily cause trouble.

but--

Just kidding, is our Yuchan girl someone who's afraid of trouble?

It's probably more likely that she's the one who's in trouble.

Therefore, Ye Yuchan had to go to the Han family.

She felt she had to figure out who the person who attacked her that day was, or what their intentions were.

Her intuition told her that things weren't that simple.

(Although her breasts don't really qualify as womanly)

Standing in front of the gate, Ye Yuchan was already mentally prepared to step inside. In order to enter upright and not come out horizontally, Ye Yuchan made a series of precautions against potential dangers.

Just in case, she even went to the Second Gate and worked with her senior brother Gu Gu Gu, who was quite proficient in formations, to set up a few special small formations.

The purpose is to ensure that once inside, one can emerge unharmed.

They even got a strange gadget from Jiang Shaoguang.

"Senior brother, there might be demons in the place I'm going to. Do you have any exorcism or warding-off-evil formations here, like... a cross?"

What are you talking to me about? What's a cross?

Um, something like that, do you know any?

Let me think... If there are demons among them, take this with you.

【What's this?】

Whatever it is, just wear it.

As a result, she took a pink sachet from Jiang Shaoguang.

There's also a rabbit tattooed on it that looks really annoying.

Ye Yuchan looked at it over and over but still didn't know what use it was. However, since Jiang Shaoguang said he wanted to take it with him, she decided to take it with her for the time being.

With everything ready, Ye Yuchan took a deep breath and placed her hand on the door.

crunch--

Without any resistance, the door was slowly pushed open.

Only then did Ye Yuchan see the scene behind the gate.

It looks just like a courtyard house magnified several times, but the internal structure is more intricate and there are many houses, arranged almost like a continuous mountain range.

Because many members of the Han family cultivate at the Three Heavens Academy, a lot of things were crammed into this huge courtyard. Moreover, the Han family itself is a Heaven-level family in the Extreme Heaven Domain, so its family foundation is naturally beyond question.

Looking around, Ye Yuchan saw countless decorations in the courtyard, including various pavilions, terraces, and elegant ponds, making it a park for leisure and recreation.

Even in relatively remote areas, Ye Yuchan saw scenes resembling gambling dens.

—It's practically a miniature town!

Ye Yuchan took a few more steps inside. The Han family's territory was enormous, and what Ye Yuchan was seeing now was only the tip of the iceberg.

The deeper Ye Yuchan went, the more luxurious items she saw, and she even had the thought of secretly taking them away to sell—but she was a woman of principle and would never steal.

Of course, along the way, Ye Yuchan also encountered many disciples of the Three-Day Academy who were talking, but she consciously avoided them all.

That's true, but once she stepped into a courtyard, she realized she couldn't escape it.

In her line of sight, two figures slowly turned their heads toward her.

A girl who looked about the same age as Yuan'er, only thirteen or fourteen years old.

The other one, however, had a youthful air about him. Although he was already eight feet tall, he still retained a touch of childishness. Beneath his slanted, reddish-brown short hair, his face revealed a face that was used to being arrogant.

Ye Yuchan knew both of them.

When Ye Yuchan noticed the two, the two men, each holding their own magical artifacts and standing opposite each other in the empty courtyard, also noticed her.

"Ye Yuchan?!"

The one who spoke was that rather dashing young man.

Holding a pale gold sword, with eyebrows as sharp as swords and eyes as sharp as blades, he exuded an air of arrogance simply by standing there.

Han Jiuquan.

But at this moment, that arrogant look slowly disappeared, replaced by astonishment and confusion.

Why is Ye Yuchan here?!

Faced with the two brothers' gazes, the silver-haired girl uttered a soft remark.

"If I said my community was providing assistance... would you believe me?"

fast!

Happy happy happy happy happy!

69. Warning

To be honest, Ye Yuchan's heart skipped a beat when she saw the Han brothers, Han Jiuquan and Han Mo.

It's worth noting that these two brothers clashed with Ye Yuchan quite a bit during the battle of the myriad factions, especially during the final ranking competition. If Ye Yuchan hadn't come up with a quick thinking move, she might have really been killed by Han Jiuquan.

Han Jiuquan was nearly shattered by Ye Yuchan's final, earth-shattering cannon shot, almost losing his life. Given the personality of this young master from a top-tier family, he would definitely remember this grudge.

His left hand quietly rested behind his back, and the pre-prepared magic circle slowly rotated and solidified in his palm.

Ye Yuchan tried her best to soften her gaze towards the Han Jiuquan brothers to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings and a potential fight.

If possible, Ye Yuchan would not want to get into a conflict with the Han family here—especially since these two people had a grudge against her.

However, to Ye Yuchan's slight surprise, after seeing Ye Yuchan appear here, Han Jiuquan and Han Mo's faces, in addition to their undisguised astonishment, gradually revealed a hint of fear.

Yes, terror.

It was as if they had encountered a demon or monster; their eyes were filled with a desire to avoid it at all costs.

The two of them involuntarily became wary, but they didn't dare to raise their blades or magical weapons at Ye Yuchan. Instead, they deliberately kept their distance from Ye Yuchan and didn't dare to take even half a step forward.

Han Mo's gaze fell on his older brother, the meaning of which was clear—you're my brother, so you'd better step up!

Han Jiuquan glared fiercely at Han Mo, then gritted his teeth, finally suppressing his arrogance, and tried his best to ask Ye Yuchan a question in a respectful tone:

"Ye Yuchan... no... Miss Ye, why did you suddenly come here...?"

Miss Ye?

you?

These two honorifics startled Ye Yuchan so much that the magic circle in her left palm almost shattered.

What happened?

She scratched her face, looking a little lost. After thinking for a moment, she tentatively asked, "Um—actually, I was looking for Han Wuhe. Is she home right now?"

"what……"

Come find Han Wuhe—

Han Jiuquan and Han Mo exchanged a glance, and simultaneously saw the panic in each other's eyes.

What does it mean when the leader of one power comes to find the leader of another power?

Anyone with a brain knows that this isn't a chat or tea party! They're going to start a war with the Han family!
