"Uncle, some things are too troublesome to explain."

"But I really need to do this right now, so if Uncle has a way, please help Yun'er with this favor," Chu Yun replied.

The Asura Venerable pondered for a moment. He understood that everyone had their own secrets, so he didn't press for further details.

"If it's at the cost of death, then there is indeed a method."

"This Venerable can lend her a wisp of power. It can forcefully boost her cultivation realm in an instant."

"But in the next moment, her soul will be directly blown apart by this power."

Chu Yun's expression brightened upon hearing this. "That's great, that's enough."

"Uncle, what stage can her cultivation be raised to with this method?"

The Asura Venerable calmly replied, "Her foundation is too weak, and this Venerable's power is too overbearing. To reach the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm in an instant is already the limit."

Chu Yun nodded. "Alright, then I'll trouble Uncle to act."

The Asura Venerable nodded slightly, his expression solemn. He slowly extended a finger, and a strand of Asura True Qi surged into Ye Wanrou's body.

"Ah!!!"

The immense energy infusion caused Ye Wanrou's soul to feel as if it were being torn apart. Immediately after, the Asura Venerable's power forcefully merged within her.

Ye Wanrou's realm instantly leaped from the early Qi Gathering Realm to the peak Nascent Soul Realm!

But at the same moment, an infinite, terrifying radiance erupted from within her body, piercing through her flesh. Endless brilliance burst forth from her.

Boom!!

Ye Wanrou's soul and body were instantly blown apart by this power, turning into ashes.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations to the host, the Asura Venerable has killed Ye Wanrou, gaining 2000 Editing Points.]

[System: Host, isn't this a bit too much like cheating?]

[Ye Wanrou's original cultivation was in the Qi Gathering Realm. You forcefully raised her to the Nascent Soul Realm before killing her, thus obtaining Nascent Soul Realm-level Editing Points. This deviates from the original intention of 'raising pigs'.]

Chu Yun retorted internally, "How is this cheating? When you said 'raising pigs,' you didn't say it could only be for hatred points. Can't I raise cultivation too?"

"This is at most exploiting a bug. Besides, my original intention for 'raising pigs' was to obtain more Editing Points. This doesn't conflict with me forcefully increasing the pig's cultivation, so it doesn't violate anything at all!"

[System: ...]

Silence fell in his mind. The system was rendered speechless by his words.

"Check current Editing Points."

[Current total Editing Points: 12000.]

Even now, Ye Wanrou was the one with the highest unit price for Editing Points.

With full hatred points, even a peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could yield two thousand Editing Points.

Coupled with everything from the entire Ye family and what he had obtained before, it directly broke ten thousand.

"Besides editing backgrounds, these Editing Points can also be used to redeem items from the system store."

Chu Yun thought about it and decided to discuss it later.

Now that everything was resolved, he had to return to the Great Xia Imperial City with his uncle and the others.

"Elder Yang, thank you for leading the way this time."

"I'll leave the cleanup of the Ye family's mess to you."

Chu Yun looked at Yang Muqian and said calmly.

Yang Muqian immediately smiled and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured. Leave the rest to this old man."

Chu Yun nodded and looked at Luo Feng and the Asura Venerable. "Uncle, let's go. It's time to head back."

"Good."

The Asura Venerable waved his hand, tearing open a spatial rift in the sky. He took Chu Yun and a group of Great Xia Shadow Guards back to the Great Xia Imperial City.

After Chu Yun and his group left, Yang Muqian glanced at the devastated Ye manor below, his eyes gradually turning cold. "Where is the City Lord of Jubei City?!"

"Here, here, here!!"

"This subordinate, Xu Jing, the City Lord of Jubei City, greets Elder Yang!"

A middle-aged man in yellow, with an unremarkable appearance, flew over nervously.

As the City Lord of Jubei City, his cultivation was even higher than Ye Kaishan's, reaching the Shattering Realm.

Yet, he still didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of Yang Muqian.

Yang Muqian looked at him and immediately ordered, "Sort out everything in the Ye family's treasury. Also, send someone to the Nine Splendor Sect."

"After sorting everything out, deliver it all to the Wangxian Commercial Pavilion in the Great Xia Imperial City. Understood?"

Xu Jing nodded repeatedly. "Yes, Elder Yang, please rest assured. I will handle it."

Yang Muqian was satisfied. "Good, let's go."

"Farewell, Elder Yang!!" Xu Jing immediately bowed his head in farewell.

Yang Muqian, along with the others from the Wangxian Dao Sect, quickly flew out of Jubei City, heading towards the nearest spatial teleportation array to the Wangxian Dao Sect.

"Master, why are those things being sent to the commercial pavilion in the Great Xia Imperial City?"

On the way, Yang Muqian's young disciple asked curiously.

"Those things belong to the Ninth Prince."

"Not only that, but I've already sent word back. When we return to the sect, I believe the Sect Master will have prepared generous gifts. Together with those items, they will be presented to the Ninth Prince to show our Wangxian Dao Sect's sincerity."

Yang Muqian was almost certain about Chu Yun. Their Wangxian Dao Sect absolutely had to build a good relationship with him.

He had returned after being missing for so many years, and his return to the Imperial City would surely stir up undercurrents! If their Wangxian Dao Sect could lend him some support at this time, their relationship would undoubtedly become even more solid.

"Master, but I don't quite understand."

"Even for the other princes, including the Crown Prince, the sect doesn't try so hard to please them. Why is the sect reacting so strongly to the appearance of this Ninth Prince?" his disciple asked again.

"Xiao Ling, you must understand that if the Ninth Prince hadn't disappeared back then, the position of Crown Prince would not have fallen to the First Prince."

"The Ninth Prince's maternal clan is the Shi family, the foremost family in the Great Xia Dynasty. This alone is enough to contend with the sect behind the Empress."

"Furthermore, Consort Shi is more favored by His Majesty the Emperor. Love me, love my dog, so to speak. This can be proven by the fact that the Great Xia Shadow Guards personally dispatched this time, showing the Emperor's extremely high regard for the Ninth Prince!"

"Coupled with the fact that we have formed a connection with the Ninth Prince through this matter, and we have seen his previous conduct. At such a young age, he possesses the ruthlessness and decisiveness of a superior, and he remains neither servile nor overbearing, showing no fear even when facing a Venerable."

"Therefore, if we befriend him, it will be of a hundred benefits and no harm to the sect. In fact... if one day he ascends to that position, the sect's standing might reach a new level!"

Yang Muqian's tone became noticeably calmer as he spoke the last words.

The others beside him were not fools either. With the words spoken so plainly, they naturally understood the implications.

It could be said that their Wangxian Dao Sect's choice of the Ninth Prince, Chu Yun, was a huge gamble! A gamble that he would value the Wangxian Dao Sect in the future, a gamble on his influence, a gamble on his future achievements. And most importantly, a gamble that he would become the Emperor of Great Xia in the future!!
