Beat up the future Saint-Rank Heaven Supreme while he was still weak?

"Hiss~"

For a moment, Yun Yun was actually tempted.

No matter what Chu Xiao would achieve in the future, he was only a Dou Master now.

With her Dou Emperor cultivation, wouldn't it be effortless for her to hide her identity and beat him up?

Once Chu Xiao rose to prominence, she could even brag that she was the woman who had beaten up Chu the Heavenly Emperor.

But she quickly remembered that the Diary Copy owner could not harm Chu Xiao in any form. Otherwise, the copy would be taken away and her memories sealed.

Even if she wanted to do it, she could not. For now, she did not want to lose this Diary Copy.

"Since you know you were in the wrong, why do you still want to beat him up?" Yun Yun frowned slightly, deliberately putting on a stern expression.

Nalan Yanran felt aggrieved. Her cheeks flushed red, and indignation filled her eyes. "Teacher, he scolded me until I cried!"

"Since the day I was born, I, Nalan Yanran, have never suffered such humiliation. I absolutely can't just let this go."

She had used the wrong method regarding the breaking of the engagement, but she was still young and inexperienced. It was normal for her to make mistakes, and she could offer compensation and apologize.

But Chu Xiao had criticized her until she was worthless, pointed at her nose, and called her an "ungrateful wretch" and "brainless," making her lose all face before the Xiao Family.

This absolutely could not be settled so easily.

"You were the one at fault first. In the end, Ge Ye was the one guiding things from behind the scenes, which was why it developed into this situation." Yun Yun placed a hand on Nalan Yanran's head and said earnestly, "If you feel humiliated, then let that shame drive you forward. Work hard to improve yourself, and make sure you do not become the kind of person he described. Use facts to show him that he misunderstood you and should apologize."

"As for venting your anger, I'm a Dou Emperor nearing thirty. If I went to beat up a Dou Master under twenty, wouldn't people laugh at me?"

"If you want to vent your anger, you'll have to rely on your own efforts."

Nalan Yanran actually understood all of this. She had merely spoken some harsh words in a burst of emotion, like a young girl acting spoiled before an elder.

If Yun Yun had truly agreed, she would instead have felt at a loss and thought herself a petty person.

If she wanted "revenge," she would naturally rely on her own efforts.

"But Teacher, he became a Dou Master at eighteen. When will I ever catch up to him?" Nalan Yanran looked somewhat dejected, with a trace of admiration she had not even noticed herself.

In a family where even the clan leader was only a Da Dou Shi, Chu Xiao had reached the Dou Master level at eighteen despite being an outsider by marriage. His talent was exceptionally strong.

She feared that when she turned eighteen three years later, she would not be as strong as him.

"Do you have no confidence in your teacher?" Yun Yun's temperament shifted slightly, and her tone became proud. "With your talent, my guidance, and the resources of the Misty Cloud Sect and the Nalan Family, you will definitely step into the Da Dou Shi level by eighteen."

"If you prove yourself and are willing to enter the Gate of Life and Death, gaining the approval of the predecessors, reaching the Dou Wang level around the age of twenty will not be a problem. You may even become a Dou Emperor before I did."

"But if you fall into self-doubt, you will fade into the crowd."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran's heart gradually came alive, and her eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Since Yun Yun had said it, she naturally trusted her without reservation.

"At the fastest, three years. At the slowest, five or six years. Then I'll be able to beat you up however I want." Nalan Yanran clenched her little fists. "Chu Xiao, just you wait."

Thinking of Chu Xiao being beaten up, the corners of her lips unconsciously curved upward.

Yun Yun watched her expression, the corner of her mouth twitching slightly. "Yan Ran, this is a well-intentioned lie from your teacher. Your cultivation is your own. Don't blame me."

She wanted to surpass a Heaven Supreme who had returned after reincarnation in terms of cultivation speed? Impossible.

She was merely dangling a carrot before Nalan Yanran to stabilize her emotions.

"You haven't slept all night. Get some proper rest, and when you wake up, cultivate diligently."

Yun Yun gently stroked Nalan Yanran's back.

Already exhausted, Nalan Yanran relaxed in Yun Yun's embrace and soon fell asleep.

Yun Yun gently carried her to the bed, tucked her in, then used her movement technique to leave like a gust of wind.

A few breaths later, she appeared at the seat of honor in the rear hall of the trading company and lightly tapped the tabletop with her finger.

"Sect Master!"

Ge Ye and the trading company's manager, who had been discussing matters, turned at the sound. Upon discovering Yun Yun's arrival, they immediately rose and bowed.

"You may withdraw first." Yun Yun swept her gaze toward the trading company's manager.

"Yes, Sect Master." The manager lowered his head and backed out of the rear hall.

Only the two of them remained in the room. Feeling Yun Yun's gaze fall upon him, Ge Ye felt as though he were being watched by a Fierce Beast.

Gulp!

As time passed, a layer of sweat appeared on Ge Ye's forehead, and his waist bent lower and lower.

Thud!

After an unknown amount of time, Ge Ye could no longer endure it and fell to his knees.

"This subordinate knows his mistake!" Fear had made Ge Ye's voice hoarse.

"A lone yin cannot grow, and a lone yang cannot flourish. This sect permits the existence of the radical faction because it benefits the sect's development."

"But that is not a reason for anyone to overstep their bounds, much less scheme against the Sect Master and the Sect Master's successor."

After those two sentences, the rear hall fell silent.

After a long while, Ge Ye cautiously raised his head and discovered that Yun Yun was already gone.

"Hah!" Ge Ye collapsed directly onto the floor. His clothes were soaked through with sweat, making him look as though he had just been fished out of water.

He understood that Yun Yun had truly been enraged this time.

Those words were for him to relay to the Council of Elders.

"I shouldn't have gotten involved in this!" Ge Ye's mouth was filled with bitterness.

He had only wanted to curry favor with both sides, perhaps gaining resources and status to glimpse the Dou Ling realm.

Now, however, he had offended both sides!

Meanwhile, Yun Yun changed into a set of black clothes.

In less than fifteen minutes, she flew to the outskirts of Wutan City, then slowly entered the city.

After asking around a little, she learned where the Xiao Family was located and headed in that direction.

There was nothing important to deal with recently, so she planned to secretly observe Chu Xiao.

However, while passing through the Xiao Family Marketplace, she heard some commotion.

"Miss Xun Er, I acquired this bracelet at an auction. How about I give it to you?"

A man dressed in white and fairly handsome blocked a young girl in a purple dress. She had an ethereal temperament and exquisite features.

"Xun Er!?" Yun Yun's pupils contracted.

Could she be the daughter of Gu Yuan, that late-stage Nine-star Dou Saint expert—the young lady of the Ancient Clan!?

"No need. Stay away from me." Xun Er was expressionless, inwardly thinking that she had bad luck.

"Miss Xun Er, would you honor me by having a meal with me?" The man did not feel embarrassed and continued pestering her.

"Didn't you hear Cousin Xun Er tell you to stay away?" Before Xun Er could speak, Xiao Yan stepped forward. "Jia Lie Ao, it's one thing for you to look like a toad, but why do you think like one too?"

He had come out to buy a wood-attributed magical beast core, only to find Xun Er being harassed by the Jia Lie Family's young master.

He had taken his mother's words to heart last night and tacitly accepted that Xun Er would be his future cousin-in-law.

This toad actually dared to covet his future cousin-in-law. He was simply courting death.

"Isn't this the trash Xiao Yan?" Jia Lie Ao looked at Xiao Yan with disdain. "You're only at the third stage of Dou Qi, yet you dare speak to me like that? If I'm a toad, then what are you?"
