Old Pervert

"Looking at you, I bet you haven't even comprehended a Domain!" Si Yao stood with her hands on her hips, head tilted back in a display of haughty pride.

"I am a genius who comprehended a Domain while still at the Planetary Level, and I am only twenty years old this year."

"A thousand years old? I'll at least be a Universe Level fighter by then."

Jialu was left speechless by her retort, but moments later, he was stunned by what she had actually said.

What did she say?

Planetary Level?

Domain?

Twenty years old?

How could these three terms possibly coexist?

His expression turned dazed, and without thinking, he blurted out, "Impossible!"

"At twenty years old, unless you started cultivating from the moment you were in your mother's womb, it is absolutely impossible to have comprehended a Domain by twenty."

Compared to being at the Planetary Level at twenty, comprehending a Domain at twenty was what he found most unacceptable.

The former could be attributed to a high bloodline rank—being born at the Apprentice Level and breaking through to the Planetary Level with minimal effort. But the latter was pure, unadulterated talent.

"Absolutely impossible!" His expression grew frantic, and the onlookers who had been watching the show suddenly erupted.

Planetary Level, Domain, twenty years old—

"Heavens!"

"How is that possible?"

"That is a Domain."

"I haven't even caught a glimpse of it after years of bitter cultivation, and a little girl has already stepped into it?"

Si Yao's words quickly caused a massive uproar in the crowd. Everyone looked at her with eyes filled not just with shock and disbelief, but also envy—

In less than half a day, anyone on Cloud Sea Planet with a decent source of information knew that a twenty-year-old genius at the Planetary Level who had comprehended a Domain had arrived on Cloud Sea Planet!

"You're lying." Jialu gritted his teeth, his gaze wandering over her petite frame before settling on her pretty face, which still held a hint of youth. He stared into her eyes, trying to find a trace of guilt.

But in those brilliant blue eyes, there was nothing but disgust and irritation toward him. Jialu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but close his eyes.

What had he done?

He had actually offended a genius!

He could already imagine the scene: if he didn't handle this well, once he returned home and his father found out, the rage would be uncontrollable, and the sticks in his father's hands would rain down upon him like a storm.

At this thought, he couldn't help but shiver. Not daring to hesitate any longer, he fished two Ganwu Coins from his ring and held them out. "Compensation for you!"

Just treat it as paying to avoid disaster!

Si Yao raised an eyebrow and took them without hesitation.

"At least you're sensible."

She had accepted them so quickly that Jialu couldn't help but suspect she might be bluffing him.

Perhaps she wasn't actually twenty, and perhaps she hadn't actually comprehended a Domain.

He still didn't want to believe he could be so unlucky as to get a genius involved just by teaching two little brats a lesson.

As he thought this, a trace of doubt appeared on his face. Si Yao instantly caught the skepticism in his eyes and grew angry. "You don't believe me?"

Losing her patience, she unleashed her Domain, forming a cyan-colored world within a ten-meter radius. Invisible wind blades stirred up tiny yet intense whirlwinds on the ground.

Jialu:—

With a "thump," the anger on Si Yao's face instantly froze, and she stared in astonishment.

Jialu pressed his palms together and offered her a fawning smile. "Brother—no, Sister—uh, Ancestor, Little Ancestor." His gaze landed on Si Yao's fair, youthful face. He rolled the title around in his mouth several times before settling on one that wouldn't offend her and would be easy to gain favor with.

"Little Ancestor, you are a person of great stature, please don't hold a grudge against a commoner like me who is ignorant, blind, and arrogant—"

Looking at the cold, shimmering wind blades around him, he couldn't help but lick his dry lips, feeling parched.

What a disaster!

Someone come and save him!!!

Watching Jialu kneeling on the ground, Si Yao clenched her fists so tightly that her bones creaked. The raging fire in her heart, already turbulent, was like a planet's worth of oil poured onto an erupting volcano the moment he knelt, causing it to explode instantly.

She quickly activated her movement technique, flashed in front of Jialu, grabbed his collar, and swung her fist into his face without hesitation.

"You actually cursed me!"

Her teacher said that if an elder kneels to a younger person, unless there is a difference in status or strength, it is an attempt to shorten the other person's lifespan.

This old thing—older than her, higher in strength, and a clansman of her teacher's friend—knelt to her?

She still wanted to accompany her teacher for a lifetime; did this old thing want to shorten her life?

He was clearly a person with malicious intent!

He deserved a beating!

"Yo, ah----" Jialu's miserable scream rang out, its mournful and shrill tone making everyone present shudder involuntarily.

Within the crowd, a short, stout old man with a face like a Buddha watched the two figures in the sky—or more accurately, the young girl—engaged in a one-sided beating with burning eyes.

On the center of the old man's forehead was a mark resembling a hurricane, the faint fluctuations of law radiating from it giving him an air of mystery.

This was clearly a mark acknowledged by the laws, and it was unknown how he managed it; even though the hurricane mark on his forehead was so conspicuous, the people around him seemed not to see it at all, their expressions remaining as usual.

He seemed to possess a magical power that allowed him to be ignored by everyone.

If any core members of the Cloud Sea Family were here, they would definitely recognize this old man as their former family head, the ancestor who had not appeared for nearly a thousand years, and the highest authority of the Cloud Sea Family—

World Lord Xunzhen!

At this moment, their respected and worshipped ancestor was standing in the crowd like a crazed old pervert, his eyes gleaming as he watched the young girl in the sky.

The girl was surrounded by a domain, yet it did not block the old man's gaze in the slightest, allowing him to clearly observe her movements as she struck.

"Decisive strikes, her footwork is at least foundational; her fist wind is fierce yet carries a hint of elegance, clearly showing that her comprehension of the Wind Domain is already extremely deep, even capable of integrating it into every move—"

"A genius, this is a genius!"

World Lord Xunzhen's eyes shone brightly; at this moment, his desire to take on an apprentice was just as intense as his desire to break through to Immortal.

"Wind Domain, wind----" He licked his lips, becoming even more excited.

He walked the path of wind and time, having long since dabbled in the Time Law and even gained a certain level of insight; his comprehension of the Wind Law had also reached an extremely deep level, missing only a sliver to take that final step.

Unfortunately, this last step had blocked him for a hundred epochs, or perhaps even longer.

However, that was not the most important thing right now; what mattered was that he seemed to have found the most suitable disciple for himself.

World Lord Xunzhen's breathing grew heavy; if he weren't afraid of scaring that little girl, he might have gone straight up, grabbed her, and made her take him as her master.

That was a disciple who perfectly matched his own path of cultivation!

While watching the farce above, he sank his consciousness into the Virtual Universe, found the current family head who was separated from him by who knows how many generations, and without asking anything, simply sent a message.

"Find out who Jialu's father is, and tell him to roll over to... here, quickly."
