"No, I was demoted. I just suddenly found myself missing that boy! You'd better seize the opportunity. If you still can't win him over by the time I return, your sister will be competing with you for a man!"

"That's exactly what I intend to do!" Yaoye suddenly cut Ya Fei off.

Ya Fei stood frozen for a moment.

She could not understand what Yaoye was trying to do.

"That's exactly what I intend to do!" Yaoye lowered herself and repeated it beside Ya Fei's ear.

"Why?"

Ya Fei was deeply curious. The Eldest Princess of the Jia Ma Imperial Family was actually taking the initiative to suggest that the two of them serve one husband?

"Because that way, I can tie down both the Mite'er Family and the Nalan Family at once!" Yaoye stated her purpose bluntly. "Our two families will also remain stable for several more decades!"

"I have to say, I admire you!" Ya Fei praised her sincerely. This woman truly was willing to go all out for the imperial family. But had the Jia Ma Imperial Family really declined to such a state?

"Thank you for the praise, Sister. I want to know what your answer is," Yaoye asked stubbornly.

With Yaoye's personality, she spoke her mind. If she did not get an answer, she would not let the matter rest.

"Making two favored daughters of heaven serve a little brat—don't you think that's letting him off too easily?"

"I understand."

Yaoye nodded.

Ya Fei became confused again. She herself did not even know what she felt for Nalan Chaoge, yet Yaoye said she understood?

"I heard the place you were demoted to is called Wutan City?" Yaoye asked.

"Yes, a remote little city. It cannot even compare to a single street in the Holy City!"

"Yes, the Mite'er Family's upper ranks truly are farsighted. The Jia Ma Empire has a total of 1,277 cities and towns, and the Mite'er Family has 1,277 Auction Houses spread across the entire Jia Ma Empire. Out of all those cities and towns, Sister just had to go to Wutan City..."

For once, Yaoye did not finish her sentence in one breath.

"Because Nalan Yanran, one of the Three Beauties of the Holy City, is going to marry there. Once you go there, you'll probably gain control of all Wutan City..."

Indeed, Ya Fei's purpose was to arrive in Wutan City ahead of time, then recruit or assist Nalan Yanran, or find the right chance to recruit the Xiao Family.

Xiao Yan was trash, but Nalan Yanran was not.

Given Nalan Jie's character, Nalan Yanran had to marry into Wutan City.

"I used to pity Yanran, but now it seems we are even more deserving of pity than she is!"

"What if we both married that little brat Nalan Chaoge?"

"Then perhaps the Three Beauties of the Holy City would not have to separate!"

"Perhaps."

Yaoye gently squeezed the horse beneath her with her legs. Receiving its master's command, the Heavenly Winged Horse suddenly spread its wings with a bang. Its wings, more than three zhang long, unfurled. With a single flap, propelled by powerful Dou Qi, it immediately soared into the sky.

Freely soaring through the sky, the land and its beauties stretched out like a painting!

"Young Master, Young Master, wake up! Princess Yaoye has already left!" Before Guo'er had even entered the room, she called out impatiently.

Nalan Chaoge abruptly opened his eyes and looked around. With a start, he scrambled down from the others.

"Where's Grandfather?"

"The Marshal hasn't returned yet. He should still be entertaining Princess Yaoye!"

"I never expected Young Master to take down that she-donkey from the Mu Family!"

"That was satisfying!"

"I'd disliked him for a long time. Last time at the market, he threw around the Mu Family's influence and snatched a second-grade medicinal herb from me."

"Young Master, how did you do it? A month ago, you still couldn't cultivate!"

"Young Master, you must be extra careful. Mu Lu of the Mu Family may be incredibly gifted, but there are plenty with even greater talent than him. Even Mu Tong, the least talented one, is already a Two-star Dou Shi. It is said that Mu Tong's brother, Mu Tie, has reached the Five-star Dou Ling level, while Mu Jin supposedly has one foot already at the Dou Wang level!"

Nalan Chaoge froze.

Wasn't this the same as setting up a formidable enemy for himself?

Damn!

He had miscalculated after all!

He should have killed Mu Lu without anyone noticing!

"Alright, it's not quite that exaggerated. Young Master just needs to be more careful in the future. We must work hard too, or we won't be able to keep up with Young Master's pace!"

The speaker was Cheng Zhou, the oldest and strongest among the Nalan Family's disciples. He was now sixteen years old and possessed the strength of a Three-star Dou Zhe.

After hearing Cheng Zhou's words, everyone fell silent.

Clearly, the Nalan Family had a very strict hierarchy.

Everyone obeyed it strictly.

They all looked to Cheng Zhou for leadership, but between Cheng Zhou and Nalan Chaoge, they would still choose Nalan Chaoge without hesitation. The influence of their upbringing from childhood could not be changed so easily.

"Right, now that Young Master can cultivate too, he can participate in Jia Nan Academy's admissions in a few months!" Someone suddenly remembered and exclaimed.

Jia Nan Academy was a renowned Dou Qi academy on the Dou Qi Continent. Its strength far exceeded ordinary imagination. It was said that to become an instructor at Jia Nan Academy, one needed at least the strength of a Da Dou Shi. In terms of foundations and power, even the Misty Cloud Sect was probably several degrees inferior.

On the Dou Qi Continent, academies differed somewhat from sects. Once one joined a sect, one would be subject to certain restrictions from the sect, and one's future actions would represent the sect behind them. Academies were different. After graduation, there would be no compulsory relationship between the two.

Still, although that was true, people were not emotionless creatures. In the simple ivory tower of an academy, students could easily develop feelings for it. After graduation, those faint feelings would make many people willing to offer the academy help within their means.

One person's help might amount to nothing, but if it were thousands or tens of thousands of people, the deterrent force created by such connections would be quite terrifying... And that was precisely the purpose of all academies.

Entering an academy was the best shortcut to obtaining cultivation methods and Battle Skills. At an institution of Jia Nan Academy's caliber, those who performed outstandingly or caught the eye of certain instructors might even obtain high-level cultivation methods and Battle Skills. With those two things, they would be much closer to becoming powerful.

Cultivation methods, Battle Skills, and medicinal pills—the three most attractive things on the Dou Qi Continent. Jia Nan Academy possessed two of them, so in the hearts of countless people across the continent, once one entered Jia Nan Academy, one's future was basically secure. Every student who successfully graduated from Jia Nan Academy would be regarded as talent by all factions, who would scramble to recruit them. Their futures could be said to be bright indeed.

Therefore, every year, countless young people in the Jia Ma Empire fought desperately and exhausted every possible means to get into Jia Nan Academy.

However, Jia Nan Academy was indeed an excellent place to gain prestige, but its admission requirements were also extremely strict: before the age of eighteen, one had to reach Eight Duan Dou Qi!

That strict admission threshold shut out everyone without sufficient talent. Thus, everyone who could enter Jia Nan Academy was a young person with considerable talent.

"Jia Nan Academy?" Nalan Chaoge murmured.

Since Jia Nan Academy was so impressive, why did Nalan Yanran not enter it? With Nalan Yanran's strength, entering the academy should have been effortless. Even the inner academy would not have posed a problem.

He had not understood before, but now Nalan Chaoge somewhat did. Jia Nan Academy's instructors were only at the Da Dou Shi level, while the Misty Cloud Sect's sect master was a Dou Huang. Entering Jia Nan Academy naturally could not compare to Yun Yun's one-on-one guidance.

"Yes, Young Master. Will you go?" someone asked curiously.

"Of course. Why wouldn't I? I heard Jia Nan Academy has Heavenly Flames too!" Nalan Chaoge smiled strangely.

"Heavenly Flames? Young Master, how did you know?"

"I guessed!"
