In the Crown Prince's hall in the royal palace of Jin Nation.

Li Yu suddenly froze in place.

On the other hand, Princess Taihe who was seated on the chair stopped crying and looked at Li Yu with some confusion. “Brother, what's the matter with you?”

“Sister, let me ask you, is there a person called Ye Ping in the Jin Nation Academy?”

“He's very handsome, second only to me.”

Li Yu asked seriously.

“Ye Ping? There doesn't seem to be such a person. As for those who are more handsome than you are, there are plenty.”

Princess Taihe answered seriously.

Li Yu was speechless.

“Brother, I seem to have heard about Ye Ping somewhere. Oh, I remember, Senior Brother Fang Lei mentioned him before and he seemed to have criticized him to the point of making him sound worthless. What happened to him?”

Princess Taihe was a little curious. In the beginning, she didn't remember who Ye Ping was, but she suddenly recalled about him.

“Criticized him to the point of making him seem worthless?”

Li Yu frowned slightly.

“Yes, Senior Brother Fang Lei said that Ye Ping is a clout chaser and he even said that if he meets Ye Ping one day, he will make Ye Ping know what a genius is. It seems that Senior Brother Fang Lei dislikes Ye Ping.”

“Brother, do you know Ye Ping? Is he like what Senior Brother Fang Lei said?”

Princess Taihe was even more curious.

She wasn't a fool and knew that although Li Yu had poor apt.i.tude, he knew all sorts of geniuses because he was the Crown Prince of Jin Nation. Those who could be remembered by him were naturally extraordinary.

“Hmph, he's ignorant.”

Hearing Fang Lei's malicious comment about his master, Li Yu couldn't help but humph coldly before looking at Princess Taihe.

“Sister, I have an idea. I'll take revenge for you, but you have to go to Mother and ask her to get an extra place for an additional student in the Jin Nation Academy. As long as you can do that, I guarantee that I will be able to help you seek revenge.”

Li Yu said seriously.

Others might not know Ye Ping, but Li Yu knew him well.

Previously, there were rumors that Ye Ping had shown incredible might by defeating 3,000 Fiendcelestial Cult disciples, and he completely believed it regardless of how absurd the rumors seemed to be.

He was displeased to hear that Ye Ping was said to be Chen Zheng's nephew and ended up getting criticized by the ma.s.ses in Jin Nation. Hence, he specifically asked the king to make a trip to Jin Nation, but to his surprise, his father actually knew who Ye Ping was.

Later on, he understood why Chen Zheng said Ye Ping was his nephew, and so he did not continue to explain anything.

Now that his biological sister had been bullied, Li Yu naturally wouldn't stand by and do nothing.

It was not that his younger sister was really precious and couldn't take a beating. It was mainly because the fifth generation of the disciples of the Jin Nation Academy were indeed too inhumane to have beaten up such a beautiful woman, so much that her face was all swollen and bruised.

Princess Taihe only dared to come out after recuperating for a few days. The faces of a few palace maids were as swollen as that of a pig's.

'Why did you have to hit her face, especially since she's a woman?' Besides, she was his biological sister and be it for personal reasons or not, he had to avenge her.

“Really? Brother, if you can help me to get revenge, you can pick any of my girlfriends at will to be your consort.”

Princess Taihe was instantly overjoyed after hearing those words.

Li Yu did not seem particularly interested and instead looked at Princess Taihe.

“Sister, I'll definitely take revenge for you while achieving my other agenda. However, no matter what, I will avenge you, but there's one thing you have to bear in mind.”

“You're a princess and Father has always pampered you while I've always doted on you since you were a child. That's the reason you're lawless and spoiled rotten. You want to go to the Jin Nation Academy to prove your talent and capabilities, not your status.”

“So, if you suffer any aggravation in the Jin Nation Academy in the future, I won't help you, regardless if you're at fault or not.”

“I know what you're thinking. You want to resist the fate of having to be married off, but if you continue being willful and come to me or Father whenever you encounter an issue, going to the Jin Nation Academy would be meaningless for you.”

“You can't resist fate too, do you know that?”

Li Yu was firm in his tone.

Since ancient times, the princesses of most nations would be married off to a faraway country in order to build diplomatic relations between the two nations or to stabilize the imperial court. It was definitely unfortunate for the princesses.

It wouldn't be too bad if the person they had to marry was someone they liked, but it was rare for true love to exist in marriage alliances.

Li Yu could tell why Princess Taihe joined the Jin Nation Academy, but he said so precisely because he could tell what she was thinking.

Otherwise, he would leave her to do whatever she wanted since it was all just for fun anyway.

After hearing these words, Princess Taihe froze in place.

She looked at Li Yu in shock.

After a long time, Princess Taihe stopped being willful and answered from the bottom of her heart.

“Brother, I understand.”

“However, I suddenly realized that you seem to have matured and changed drastically.”

Princess Taihe did not expect that her brother, who used to dote on her greatly, would say something like this today. However, she understood that Li Yu said that only because she was his biological sister.

If it were any other princess, Li Yu would never say such things.

“Hey, am I handsome?”

Before Li Yu could establish his n.o.ble image, he grinned and asked.

Princess Taihe was speechless.

“Okay, I'll go first. Don't worry about the Jin Nation Academy quota, I'll look for you if there's anything.”

Princess Taihe was immediately in high spirits. She did not continue to annoy Li Yu and left the hall.

Li Yu was the only one left in the s.p.a.cious hall.

Remaining calm, he watched Princess Taihe leave.

After Princess Taihe left, Li Yu also walked out of the hall and talked to the eunuchs.

“Dispatch 800 escort guards immediately. I'm going out of town.”

After saying that, Li Yu walked out.

Three days later.

It wasn't daybreak yet.

At the Qingyun Dao Sect.

Daoist Tai Hua walked towards the sect with a look of exhaustion.

He went to Qingzhou Ancient City in the past month.

He found out three things.

Firstly, his eldest disciple Su Changyu was admired by many in Qingzhou Ancient City and his reputation was almost G.o.dlike.

Secondly, Su Changyu did not die and many found out that only hundreds of people died and got injured in Qingzhou. Besides, most of them were itinerant cultivators and none of them was Su Changyu. Otherwise, everyone in Qingzhou would have found out.

Thirdly, the standards of living in Qingzhou Ancient City were very high.

When he found out that Su Changyu was not dead, Daoist Tai Hua was completely relieved.

Although he did not know why Su Changyu did not return to the sect, Daoist Tai Hua believed that with Su Changyu's luck and wisdom, he definitely would protect himself well.

In particular, Su Changyu was lucky.

Daoist Tai Hua always remembered that there was a huge flood in the Qingyun Mountain Range and it was rumored that there was a fight between two supreme experts that resulted in a huge flood.

In the situation where there were countless deaths and injuries, Su Changyu was lying inside a wooden basin and survived.

Hence, since then, Daoist Tai Hua knew that Su Changyu was tough and would definitely live long even though he was a good-for-nothing.

Many cultivators and people died in that disaster, but Su Changyu, who was a baby then, managed to survive and was unscathed.

Who could be luckier than him?

Hence, since there was no other valuable news, Daoist Tai Hua returned to the sect.

He wanted to see if Su Changyu had returned.

It would be best if he did, but if not, he would continue to wait in the sect. He believed that Su Changyu would come back sooner or later.

However, as soon as Daoist Tai Hua returned to the sect, he was dumbfounded.
