All the swords returned to the hands of the people.

Everything seemed calm and serene, and peace was restored.

If not for the fact that everyone was staring at Ye Ping, it would seem as if nothing had happened before.

At this moment, Ye Ping opened his eyes.

He ignored the gazes of the crowd and instead looked at Su Changyu ashamedly.

“Eldest Senior Brother, my aptitude is poor and I haven’t been able to comprehend the sword intent, please forgive me.”

Ye Ping was full of shame and was indeed about to comprehend the sword intent, but he somehow felt that neither the Four Thunder sword intent nor the Heavenly River sword intent was suitable for him. Hence, he ultimately chose not to condense the sword intent.

However, after he said that, the hundreds of thousands of cultivators fell silent.

The Qingzhou cultivators were bewildered.

Xu Qiubai was speechless.

The Qingzhou City Lord was confused too.

Except for Su Changyu, all the cultivators were a bit puzzled.

Ye Ping’s words really sounded a bit harsh to their ears.

Yes, it was harsh to the ears.

‘This is called poor aptitude?’

‘Are you insulting me? Forget it if you’re insulting me, but the City Lord hasn’t condensed the sword intent either. Are you going to insult the City Lord too?’

However, before the crowd came back to their senses, Su Changyu had already recovered from the shock.

‘The brutal fights are over, now it’s my turn to pretend to be impressive.’

He looked at Ye Ping with a calm gaze in his eyes and initially wanted to say a few words, but after thinking about it, he didn’t know what to say. Hence, he didn’t answer Ye Ping’s question and simply walked towards the Qingzhou Ancient City while everyone watched.

“Let’s go into the city.”

Those three words intensified his Sword Immortal aura.

“Yes, Senior Brother.”

Ye Ping hurriedly got up and walked towards Su Changyu, ignoring Li Yu and the others.

“Teacher, Teacher, wait for me, let’s go together.”

Seeing Ye Ping walking towards the city, Li Yu also hurriedly scurried behind him to catch up.

At this moment, the Qingzhou City Lord had a drastic change of expression as he looked at Li Yu with his eyes full of shock.

“Crown Prince?”

The Qingzhou City Lord was a little stunned because he didn’t expect that the Crown Prince of Jin Nation was actually there.

“Why is the crown prince here? He even called that young man his teacher. Wait!”

At this moment, the Qingzhou City Lord seemed to have thought of something as he couldn’t help but shudder.

‘The inspection commander of Jin Nation?’

‘Yes, it’s the inspection commander.’

“So that’s how it is, I see.”

The Qingzhou City Lord was shocked and had already guessed Su Changyu’s identity, which made him overjoyed after he recovered from the shock.

However, although he guessed part of it, he did not act rashly and instead left the city entrance quietly.

At this moment, in Qingzhou.

As Su Changyu and Ye Ping walked out of the passageway, all eyes were on them.

Some were envious and jealous while many were full of admiration and affection.

The feeling of getting attention from so many people made Su Changyu’s skin tingle with pleasure. If not for the fact that there were so many people, he would have probably laughed out loud.

‘Awesome! Wonderful! Superb!’

‘What else in this world can be more pleasant than pretending to be impressive?’

‘Unfortunately, such opportunities are rare.’

‘At the end of the day, I’m just too much of a loser. If only I’m as talented as Ye Ping.’

Thinking of this, Su Changyu could not help but sigh.

At this moment, the sounds of the crowd discussing could be heard.

“It’s hard to imagine that there are actually two such strong experts in Qingzhou at the same time. Besides, they are young and handsome, and their auras are excellent. The most incredible thing is that they are extremely capable too. I’m in awe.”

“I’m so furious. My position as the most handsome man in Qingzhou was actually snatched away from me by two men on the same day. Now, I can only settle for third place.”

“What? Fellow Daoist, have you got any shame? I’m clearly in third place, okay?”

“Stop arguing. You two are in third and fourth place while I’m in the fifth place, alright?”

“I’ll bear with it and make do with being in sixth place then.”

“Since all of you are so shameless, I shall be in seventh place.”

“I’ll be in eighth.”

The male cultivators’ voices were softer, mainly because they wanted to save themselves the embarrassment. Even though they were envious, they were too embarrassed to talk loudly.

However, the female cultivators’ discussion was different.

“I like this Eldest Senior Brother so much. He’s so aloof and domineering, totally my type. Ah, I can’t take this.”

“I like him so much too. Eldest Senior Brother, shall we go on a date? I’m not clingy.”

“Ah, I can totally tell that you guys are inexperienced. This Eldest Senior Brother is indeed handsome, but his junior brother is a gem. He looks so scholarly and has an excellent aura. Eldest Senior Brother is obviously devoted to the Sword Dao, and you definitely won’t be happy after you get together with him.”

“Yes, yes, I like his junior brother. Ah, I can’t stand it either. I’ve already decided that I’ll become his suitor.”

“Sisters, I have a question. My master’s wife said that handsome men usually have small members. Is that true?”

“Uh… I’m not very clear about that.”

“Sister, your question is beyond my knowledge.”

“Size doesn’t matter to me. At most, I’ll do it myself.”

“If all handsome men are small down there, I’ll choose the junior brother and ask him to comprehend the sword move every now and then.”

“Ah! You guys do know a lot about this, I’ve been defeated.”

The female cultivator’s voice was not very loud, but it was definitely not soft. Besides, they were discussing such an explicit topic in broad daylight. All of a sudden, Ye Ping, who was walking behind Su Changyu, could not help but be more certain of Xiao Muxue’s lust-abstinence technique.

“Master, Uncle-Master, I’ve already booked a private room in Full River House. It’s quiet there, and the Sword Dao Meet is round the corner. Let’s rest well and not be disturbed. How does that sound?”

At this moment, Li Yu came to Ye Ping and said that to him.

However, Ye Ping shook his head and said, “The Sect Leader has taught us not to take advantage of others when we’re outside. Otherwise, we will always be owing someone a favor.”

“Li Yu, you have important things to do too. Why don’t you go ahead and get busy?”

Ye Ping had a good impression of Li Yu, but he didn’t want to owe him a favor.

Su Changyu, who was walking in front, couldn’t help but nod after hearing this.

He would have definitely taken advantage of this in the past, but now that he had a few hundred taels of gold in his pocket, he didn’t need someone to pay for him to stay in an inn.

However, in the next moment, Li Yu could not help but continue to insist.

“Master, I have booked a room. If you and Uncle-Master don’t check into it, it’s going to go to waste. Besides, it’s not expensive either. It only costs a hundred taels of gold a day.”

Li Yu indeed didn’t care about the money and mainly wanted to please Ye Ping and Su Changyu.

“No, I’m not going.”

Ye Ping was also not interested in money and shook his head directly.

However, Su Changyu was stunned when he heard that.

‘100 taels of gold a day?’

‘What kind of an inn is that? It’s so expensive.’

‘Wait…’

‘Full River House?’

‘The most famous Full River House in Qingzhou Ancient City?’

‘The five-star inn?’

He inhaled sharply.

Su Changyu suddenly remembered what the Full River House was. That explained why it sounded so familiar to him previously.

It was the only five-star inn in Qingzhou and was extremely luxurious. Rumor had it that every piece of wood in the inn was rosewood.

At the thought of this, Su Changyu couldn’t help but say, “Junior Brother, I thought about it and I feel that Li Yu is your disciple after all. He’s not considered an outsider, so why don’t we go and get some rest?”

Su Changyu tried to make himself look calm and less like a mercenary snob.

“Yeah, Master, since Uncle-Master has already said that, let’s go to Full River House.”

Li Yu chimed in excitedly.

Ye Ping didn’t think much about it either. Since Su Changyu had already said so, he had nothing more to say.

Just like that, they arrived at Full River Restaurant.

Six hours passed.

A figure slowly appeared outside Qingzhou.

Li Changye slowly observed the Qingzhou Ancient City.

He was extremely handsome and cold. This time, he especially bought a brocade white crane cloud robe in a bid to highlight his aura as a Sword Immortal.

Li Changye did have a good aura, but unfortunately, he was far inferior to Su Changyu.

Outside Qingzhou Ancient City.

Li Changye’s face was calm as he gazed at the ancient city, and he couldn’t help but mutter.

“Is my path to invincibility going to start here?”

“Hah… I’m really looking forward to it.”

After saying this, Li Changye slowly walked into the ancient city.

Several gazes were cast on him.

Sensing the gazes, Li Changye did not behave abnormally and instead became even calmer.

He knew that he was an elite, and they were all looking at him with envy.

‘Ah, this is the life of geniuses, especially geniuses who are as good-looking as me.’

‘Changye, you’re so brilliant.’

Thinking of this, Li Changye couldn’t help but smile and take a large stride forward.

However, the chatter among the crowd seemed very odd.

“Guys, quickly look, a copycat has appeared.”

“Tsk, Eldest Senior Brother has just appeared, but someone is already trying to copy him. This is so disgusting.”

“Yes, yes, there are so many copycats nowadays.”

“Damn it, look, he’s still smiling, isn’t he? Seriously? Does he really think he’s very handsome?”

The male cultivators were not talking too loudly, but they were bragging softly while the female cultivators were discussing loudly.

“I retched. This person is so ugly compared to Eldest Senior Brother. He’s wearing the same clothes as him too. Who gave him that confidence?”

“Cut it out, Sisters. I’m going to wash my eyes.”

“He’s a typical wastrel who looks good but is incompetent. Sisters, you must be careful not to be duped by such a person in the future. Got it?”

Unfortunately, Li Changye didn’t hear those voices…

Another two hours passed.

Wang Minghao also appeared outside the Qingzhou Ancient City.

He was indifferent.

He was even more indifferent than Li Changye.

He came from a real hidden sect of experts that was extremely powerful.

Hence, he had a natural sense of superiority.

In his eyes, a mere Qingzhou was just a stepping stone for him.

With an aloof expression, Wang Minghao walked through the passage.

Similarly, he attracted a lot of gazes.

Sensing the gazes, Wang Minghao stayed calm because he knew that that was the attention that a genius should be receiving.

He wasn’t bragging because he was already extremely conceited.

Just like that, he continued all the way until late at night.
