Heavenly Heart Dao Body

"You're crazy."

Xuanyuan Che's lips twitched slightly, utterly speechless at his cheap Master's sudden burst of excitement.

However, the Academy Grand Competition...

Xuanyuan Che's eyes flickered, a hint of interest sparking within him.

"Alright, since I have nothing else to do, I'll go see Senior Sister."

A thought crossed his mind, and he strode in the direction of Listen to Rain Pavilion.

Before long, he arrived at the elegant courtyard.

The courtyard gate was still half-open, as tranquil as when he first saw it.

Xuanyuan Che raised his hand and gently knocked on the gate.

"Creak—"

The gate opened in response. Yun Mengyao was seated in the pavilion in the front yard.

Today, Yun Mengyao was still dressed in a simple, elegant white dress, her black hair like a waterfall, her face clear and refined, like a fairy from a painting. However, compared to their first meeting, a faint hint of melancholy seemed to linger in her eyes, adding a touch of delicate charm.

"Little Junior Brother is here." Yun Mengyao's voice was still cool and pleasant, lacking the probing tone from their first meeting and possessing more gentleness.

"Senior Sister Mengyao." Xuanyuan Che walked into the courtyard.

In front of the pavilion stood an ancient phoenix tree, its branches and leaves lush, casting patches of shade. On the stone table, a delicate tea set was arranged, the aroma of tea wafting through the air.

"Sit." Yun Mengyao gestured for Xuanyuan Che to sit and poured him a cup of clear tea.

The tea was a vibrant green, clear to the bottom, emitting faint ripples of Spiritual Energy.

Xuanyuan Che picked up the teacup and took a sip. The tea was crisp and refreshing, with a sweet aftertaste. It was indeed good tea.

"Good tea," Xuanyuan Che praised.

Yun Mengyao smiled faintly, her smile bright. "If Junior Brother likes it, you can take some back when you leave later."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Xuanyuan Che accepted without politeness, smiling.

"Senior Sister Mengyao, you mentioned last time that my physique is very special. How did you see that?" Xuanyuan Che put down his teacup, his gaze falling on Yun Mengyao with a hint of inquiry.

He had always been curious about Yun Mengyao's "intuition." After all, he possessed the Innate Chaos Body, one of the top physiques in the world, with all sorts of incredible divine abilities. People from the Lower Realm shouldn't have been able to see through his physique.

Unless... Yun Mengyao possessed some special means, or perhaps she herself was no ordinary person.

Could it be that Senior Sister is also from the Upper Realm? The Yun family is indeed famous. My Imperial Daughter sister is from the Yun family, but...

Upon hearing this, a complex look flashed in Yun Mengyao's clear eyes. She was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Little Junior Brother's physique is indeed extraordinary. I can feel that power, it's very dangerous, and also very powerful, so powerful... that it makes my heart palpitate."

"Palpitate?" Xuanyuan Che raised an eyebrow, not entirely surprised.

Yun Mengyao said, "My physique is special. I'm naturally gifted with an unusual perception of danger."

"Special physique?" Xuanyuan Che's heart stirred, his interest piqued further. "May I ask what kind of physique Senior Sister has?"

"My physique... is called the 'Heavenly Heart Dao Body'."

"Heavenly Heart Dao Body?" Xuanyuan Che was slightly taken aback. He had never heard this name before!

"The Heavenly Heart Dao Body is not among the three thousand physiques, and it's rarely recorded even in ancient texts," Yun Mengyao said softly. "It's an extremely rare special physique with all sorts of incredible abilities. And my greatest skill is perceiving heavenly secrets and averting misfortune."

"Perceiving heavenly secrets and averting misfortune?" Xuanyuan Che's eyes narrowed, a ripple of emotion stirring within him.

This ability sounded similar to heavenly secrets arts, yet different. Heavenly secrets arts involved deducing heavenly secrets and peering into the future, while the Heavenly Heart Dao Body seemed to lean more towards intuition, a primal sense of danger.

But either way, it was enough to prove the Heavenly Heart Dao Body's incredible nature!

It was completely on par with some of the higher-ranked physiques among the three thousand!

"Senior Sister trusts me this much?" Xuanyuan Che couldn't help but be curious.

This was likely one of Senior Sister's biggest secrets.

"Of course, your physique gives me a sense of closeness," Yun Mengyao said gently.

"Besides, Little Junior Brother is very pleasing to the eye."

"Oh, you're so handsome, so handsome!" Xuanyuan Che waved his hand.

"Senior Sister, but I must presumptuously ask, why didn't you go to the Central Continent with such talent, and instead become that old geezer's disciple?"

Pfft!

Yun Mengyao stood up and casually stroked Xuanyuan Che's hair, plucking a few leaves from the phoenix tree.

If an outsider were present, they would likely be stunned—the goddess would also laugh? And touch a man?

A boy? Even a boy wouldn't do!

Xuanyuan Che felt nothing.

It was just that the way she ruffled his hair was different from his elder sister, much gentler!

"Master is a Supreme, and you speak of him like that," Yun Mengyao said.

"You'll understand later. Besides, Little Junior Brother, you're the one with the most secrets, aren't you? A Saint Realm cultivator at such a young age... it's perhaps too heaven-defying..."

"Senior Sister's Heavenly Heart Dao Body, the same to you."

Yun Mengyao shook her head, her expression calm. "The Heavenly Heart Dao Body has its pros and cons. Being able to perceive heavenly secrets and avoid misfortune is certainly a good thing, but... it's not entirely pleasant either."

Her tone was faint, as if hinting at something or talking to herself.

She's still hiding something!

"Oh, right, Senior Sister," Xuanyuan Che changed the subject and asked, "I just heard Master say that he's going to take us to the Central Continent to participate in the Academy Grand Competition hosted by Xuanhuang Academy in a while."

"Oh, that."

"The Central Continent Academy Grand Competition is a grand event hosted by the Central Continent's Xuanhuang Academy. It's held once every hundred years and gathers the prodigies and elites from the major top academies across the Three Thousand Dao Domains," Yun Mengyao explained. "As for Xuanhuang Academy, it's known as the number one academy in the world. It has profound foundations and is a top force even in the Central Continent. It maintains neutrality, focusing on teaching and nurturing talents to cultivate a foundation for confronting the restless alien races."

"Any team that can enter the top ten in the Academy Grand Competition will have the opportunity to train in Xuanhuang Academy's Profound Yellow Secret Realm."

Profound Yellow Secret Realm?

Will my Profound Yellow Mother Qi Cauldron directly drain that secret realm dry?

Xuanyuan Che's expression turned a bit strange at this thought.

"The Academy Grand Competition is extremely competitive, bringing together prodigies from all sides, including direct descendants from some of the Central Continent's Ancient Noble Families," Yun Mengyao said.

"One more thing, it's best not to expose your Saint Realm cultivation when the time comes. That Central Continent is very complicated... Junior Brother, you're too overpowered."

"Just stick with us then."

They chatted for a while longer. Although Yun Mengyao had a cool personality, she was quite concerned about her junior brother, Xuanyuan Che, and gave him detailed advice on everything.

Xuanyuan Che felt a warmth in his heart and developed a greater sense of closeness towards his second senior sister.

"It's getting late, Junior Brother should go back to cultivate," Yun Mengyao said softly as she stood up.

"Mm, Senior Sister, get some rest early," Xuanyuan Che replied as he got up to take his leave.

Yun Mengyao nodded slightly and escorted Xuanyuan Che to the courtyard entrance, ruffling his hair again.

It was like a real brother and sister.

"Heavenly Heart Dao Body... Xuanhuang Academy, Profound Yellow Secret Realm... descendants of Ancient Noble Families..." Back in the Purple Bamboo Pavilion, Xuanyuan Che frantically absorbed knowledge from ancient books.

"Interesting."

He originally had little interest in the Academy Grand Competition. The prodigies of the Lower Realm were nothing special in his eyes.

But now, hearing Yun Mengyao's words, he felt a flicker of anticipation.

He wanted to see what these prodigies of the Lower Realm were truly capable of, and whether there was anything in the Profound Yellow Secret Realm that caught his eye.
