Chang'an's Ultimate Attraction! Zhu Zhuqing Drops Out of School?

"Grandfather, what's wrong?"

Dugu Yan furrowed her delicate brows, her face full of confusion.

"There are so many things in Chang'an worth being surprised about, why are you staring at the 'Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well' that has already been introduced?"

Dugu Bo coughed awkwardly and gave a casual, dismissive excuse.

He certainly couldn't tell his own granddaughter what had happened in the Sunset Forest.

"Grandfather, do you think the major powers will scramble to win them over? And what exactly is the 'Ultimate' of Chang'an?"

Dugu Yan rested her chin on her hand, her gaze still locked tightly on the Sky Screen floating in the sky, her tone filled with curiosity.

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed through Dugu Bo's eyes.

He had no interest in how other powers acted, but he was quite intrigued by that so-called "Ultimate."

He wondered if that "Ultimate" could help him resolve the defects in his martial soul without affecting its power or his cultivation level.

Even if it couldn't, he still had to make a trip to Chang'an and use some Immortal Herbs to trade for some of the ice and fire spring water; otherwise, both he and his granddaughter were doomed!

"Yan Yan, stay home and behave. Grandfather needs to go out again, and this time it might take quite a while!"

As soon as the words fell, Dugu Bo flashed away.

"Sigh, this grandfather of mine is usually so lazy, yet he's suddenly become so diligent!"

Dugu Yan shrugged helplessly and looked up at the Sky Screen again, truly wishing she could go and see that Chang'an for herself.

Heaven Dou City, Ye Residence.

From the moment the Sky Screen first descended, Ye Lingling had returned home.

She and her grandmother, Ye Xinci, had been watching the Sky Screen ever since.

Seeing the top of the list announced, Ye Lingling couldn't help but ask in surprise:

"Chang'an City... Ye Han? Grandmother, have you ever heard of this city or this senior?!"

Ye Xinci shook her head, her cloudy eyes fixed intently on the word "Ultimate," and muttered:

"The 'Ultimate' behind that door transcends the mortal realm. I wonder if it can resolve the shackles of our Nine Heart Begonia martial soul, where only one can exist in a generation?"

Just then, a figure flashed in and knelt to report:

"Reporting to the Clan Head, the latest news: the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the Upper Three Sects have reached an alliance and, with the exception of the Clear Sky Sect, have all set off to visit Chang'an City!"

"There is one more thing: Poison Douluo just returned to the city not long ago, but he has already left again. His destination is likely the same!"

"Should we also..."

Ye Xinci had anticipated this, and she smiled faintly:

"Let those major powers go and scout the path first. It is better for 'small families' like us to wait and see for now."

As she spoke, she slowly stood up, walked to the window, and looked outside, murmuring:

"Old man Dugu, you are likely going for the sake of your own martial soul's defects, aren't you? I hope you can bring back some of the mysteries of the 'Ultimate' when you return."

As someone of the same generation as Dugu Bo and a possessor of the Nine Heart Begonia, Ye Xinci had naturally been asked by Dugu Bo to help resolve his toxins in the past, and even though it hadn't succeeded, a deep friendship had been forged.

Otherwise, how could their two granddaughters be so close?

The quiet Ye Lingling looked at the Sky Screen again, feeling a sense of longing for Chang'an and that "Ultimate."

Skywater City, Shui Residence.

"Wow, I never imagined such a power existed in this world!"

Shui Yue'er gazed at the content on the Sky Screen, hugged her sister beside her, and asked with a mischievous grin:

"Sister, do you think the City Lord of Chang'an, 'Ye Han,' is a handsome man, a real beauty?"

Shui Bing'er swatted away her wandering hands and said with some severity:

"Don't talk nonsense! A powerhouse capable of establishing such a force must be a highly respected senior; you must not speculate so frivolously!"

Shui Yue'er stuck out her pink tongue:

"Grandmother says that the strongest can maintain their youth forever. Even if he is a senior over a hundred years old, he must still be charming!"

Shui Bing'er couldn't do anything about her, so she looked toward the elderly figure sitting upright nearby, the head of the Shui family, Shui Ningshuang.

"Grandmother, please discipline Yue'er! She even dares to set her sights on a senior!"

Shui Ningshuang simply took it as them playing around, a smile blooming on her aged face:

"Hahaha, Yue'er has grown up, and this old woman can't control her anymore. If she could catch the eye of this City Lord and have him take her, it would be a wonderful thing."

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er said with some annoyance:

"Grandmother! Why are you joining in on the nonsense too!"

Shui Yue'er was unhappy after hearing this, her cheeks puffed up in annoyance:

"Grandmother, I was just joking. What if the other person really is an old man?!"

Shui Ningshuang smiled without a word. After glancing at Shui Bing'er, she looked up and stared intently at the word "Ultimate" on the Sky Screen, sighing to herself:

"Shui Bing'er was born with a weak constitution. Even after exhausting all kinds of precious natural treasures, we couldn't fully mend it. The Ice Phoenix spirit she inherited is too overbearing, causing her to be eroded by cold energy year-round. It is still manageable for now, but it might not be after she reaches level seventy. I wonder if this so-called 'Ultimate' can solve it for her?"

"Sigh, let's wait for the major powers to go and scout the situation first."

Shui Bing'er had always been sensible and knew how to read the room, so she quickly understood what her grandmother was thinking.

She couldn't help but look at the Sky Screen as well, staring at the content regarding Chang'an City, her beautiful eyes filled with bewilderment:

"The 'Ultimate' in Chang'an City can cure all diseases in the world. Would it have a miraculous effect on my cold poison?"

The "Ultimate" behind the Ark Gate in Chang'an City attracted more than just the powers on the continent.

At this moment, the Sea God Island, Demon Shark Bay, and the Demonic Whale Sea Area far away in the ocean were also moved by it.

These three major oceanic powers were all in urgent need of healing items to treat their subjects, clansmen, and loved ones.

When the Life Lake in the Star Dou Forest was exposed previously, they had all simultaneously sent people to seek it out.

Now that they saw an "Ultimate" existence even more supreme than the Life Lake, how could they suppress the agitation in their hearts?

The Sea Witch, Bai Xiuxiu, and Lan Fozi, who had been dispatched by the three major powers, also caught sight of the message on the Sky Screen at this moment.

"Chang'an City, where humans and beasts are equal! It's located right near the Star Dou Forest! An Ultimate that can cure all diseases in the world!"

At this moment, the three women, who were setting off from different locations, changed their routes in unison, heading toward—Chang'an City!

Suotuo City, Shrek Academy.

"The number one is actually not the God Realm?!"

Everyone was shocked by the content of the Sky Screen yet again!

"No way! Does this thing actually exist?!"

Ma Hongjun and the others were so shocked that they had lost all sense of reality.

"It's a fake ranking! It must be a fake ranking!!"

Only Yu Xiaogang was stomping his feet in anxiety, pointing at the Sky Screen and cursing:

"I, the Grandmaster, have traveled the continent for many years; how could I not know of such a power?!"

"If they truly existed, why wouldn't they invite me, the Grandmaster, to oversee and teach them?!"

Tang San also stepped forward, supporting him from behind:

"That's right. If such a power truly existed, why wouldn't they invite my teacher, the continent's number one master of spirit theory, to join them?"

Although Zhao Wuji, Ma Hongjun, and the others had their doubts about Yu Xiaogang's status as a "Grandmaster."

On the surface, he was indeed the number one master, yet Chang'an City hadn't invited him?

Shouldn't a power like that rather kill a hundred geniuses by mistake than let one slip through their fingers?

Not far away, Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes lit up the moment she saw Chang'an City:

"A place free from worldly strife, where humans and beasts are equal, transcending the mortal world... This is what my heart yearns for, Chang'an City!"

She turned to look at the others, and seeing the "Grandmaster" Yu Xiaogang jumping around like a clown, she finally reached her limit.

"Dean Flender, I want to withdraw from the academy!!"

Zhu Zhuqing strode forward, speaking these words without a hint of hesitation, her firm, cold voice echoing across the scene.
