Outside the treasury, in front of the main hall.

"In just one day, Elder Ye has completely eliminated the scourge of this place. This speed truly leaves this old man speechless."

"Although Elder Wei did not suffer much loss in the process, the mission to besiege the Nine Tripod Sword Sect was inherently fraught with danger, and he can be said to have contributed his remaining energy to the Tai'an Grand Prefecture before his death."

As he spoke, Che Wen Zhong stroked his beard and smiled.

The shock of the previous events had finally subsided somewhat.

Looking down at the busy disciples of the Director of the Celestial Observatory, he summarized the matter:

"No matter what, Elder Ye deserves the greatest credit this time."

The next step is to make only minor changes to the submitted documents to avoid any issues with headquarters holding them accountable afterward.

Che Wenzhong, who is known for his Che Wen Zhong, did this with a clear conscience.

The reason is simple.

Ye Li helped Tai'an Grand Prefecture avert a visible disaster, and his leading by example earned him his respect.

Moreover...

Ultimately, Wei Shan's death was the result of his own actions, and he could not blame any of his colleagues, much less have anything to do with Elder Ye.

After this battle...

The old man believed that if it were Elder Ye, then breaking through the Heaven and Earth Realm one after another was not an incomprehensible thing.

After all, it was possible to suppress Heaven and Earth Venerable was at a higher level Half-step True Person.

He had never even heard of it before, let alone seen it.

Therefore, in his view, the other party's foundation must be so profound that it was beyond his imagination, and he had no idea how much effort they had secretly put in.

Only they know the hardships and difficulties they endured.

Since that's the case.

After the great battle, the opponent accumulated strength and broke through several realms in succession... which is barely acceptable.

Thinking of this, Che Wen Zhong felt much more at ease.

Boom!!--

However, the next moment, an even more immense aura, several times greater than before, shot straight into the sky, sweeping across the four directions with the overwhelming force of a river bursting its banks!

This overwhelming pressure was like a raging storm, and the disciples of the Heavenly Supervision Department were like countless straws in a tempest, unable to straighten their backs for a moment!

Seeing this situation.

Che Wen Zhong's expression froze instantly.

With his cultivation at the half-step Divine Connection Realm, how could he not know what was happening?

This is clearly a grand celestial phenomenon caused by the surge of true qi in the Qi Sea after a high-level cultivator breaks through to a higher realm!

The question is, who is making this breakthrough?!

The thought popped into my head the instant.

Che Wen Zhong slightly taken aback, then a look of horror gradually appeared in his eyes. "..."

He slowly closed his eyes and began to sense this unusual celestial phenomenon.

However, in just a moment, a strange sense of dread welled up from the bottom of the old man's heart!

There's no other reason than that this strange phenomenon actually contained a trace of sublime Power of Law!

There are probably only a handful of cultivators with such an aura in the entire Eastern Continent Heavenly Supervision Department...

Che Wen Zhong opened his eyes, his shock so intense he could no longer conceal it. He glanced at Qin Han beside him, who was equally terrified, and couldn't help but ask:

"Is this normal?!"

This is certainly not a normal situation.

But for Mr. Ye, the abnormal situation was actually the normal situation.

Qin Han's lips twitched slightly. He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, and squeezed out a voice from his dry throat, replying in as calm a tone as possible:

"Yes."

You'll get used to it.

Habit my foot!

Even Qin Han, who knew the inside story, was losing his composure, and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

The speed at which the boy recovered his strength was simply beyond ordinary imagination!

I thought it would take at least several decades.

But now it seems that, at the current rate of recovery, it will probably only take a few years for the other party to regain the throne of the True Person of the Divine Connection Realm!

How incredibly fast...

Qin Han's heart raced, and he looked forward to the future of the Eastern Continent with increasing anticipation. True Person of this level in the Divine Connection Realm might truly become a pillar of stability in the Eastern Continent, following in the footsteps of his own master!

Within his field of vision.

Beneath the turbulent winds and clouds, the mountains trembled violently, and a Daoist priest dressed in Baiyi soared into the sky, instantly arriving at the open space in front of the main hall.

"Elder Ye's combat prowess is exceptional; he will surely secure a place for himself in the Eastern Continent in the future. I offer my congratulations in advance."

Looking at the White-robed Guest Elder came before him, Che Wen Zhong's old face also showed a genuine smile. In a few more years, it might be extremely difficult for him to even see the other party.

How could such a person be retained by Tai'an Grand Prefecture?

Even in the turbulent Wanjing Grand Commandery, as long as the other party knows when to advance and retreat, their own safety is certainly not a concern.

Those two powerful forces in Wanjing Grand Commandery aren't fools. If they dared to kill such an outstanding Guest Elder, the treacherous officials within their sects would likely be dug up and chopped up by the Eastern Continent Director of the Celestial Observatory afterward!

Thinking of this, the old man smiled with some emotion, "No wonder the elder dared to go to Wanjing Grand Commandery; I had worried too much before."

Ye Li nodded his chin lightly, neither confirming nor denying.

Then, turning to look at Qin Han, whose eyes were shining, he asked:

"That concludes the matter here. What are your plans for the future?"

He planned to first visit the Yinhai Grand Commandery where the Red Dust Immortal Gate was located.

In the months since he began practicing Martial Dao, this was the first time Ye Li had allowed such a potential threat to persist.

Previously, I could use excuses like "[I can't be impulsive, what if I can't win and can't escape? That would be a big Trouble]" to convince myself.

However, as his cultivation level reached the half-step Divine Connection Realm, he...

This excuse is becoming increasingly untenable.

Moreover, if this matter can succeed.

He might be able to travel to Wanjing Prefecture, which he governs, with the power of the Divine Connection Realm, and begin a sweeping purge, saving himself the trouble of complicated interpersonal relationships.

They can also stand taller when enforcing the law.

"I have no plans at the moment, and I am ready to go to Wanjing Prefecture with you at any time."

Upon hearing this, Qin Han slightly suppressed his excitement and answered without much hesitation.

There is still some time before the Five Continents' Battle of the Prodigies, which takes place once every five hundred years in China.

Although I am required to attend by my master's orders, it is most important to help Mr. Ye familiarize himself with the situation in Wanjing Prefecture before that.

There's enough time.

But no sooner had he spoken than Ye Li replied, and the jade seal in his arms, symbolizing [personal disciple of the Director of the Celestial Observatory], suddenly vibrated.

"..."

Qin Han was slightly taken aback, then quickly gestured for Ye Li to wait a moment before taking the jade seal out of his robes.

The moment I saw the jade seal.

Che Wen Zhong's breathing hitched slightly, but fortunately, he had already experienced too many cognitive shocks today, so he did not lose his composure.

After slightly bowing, he flew directly downwards.

Once his figure was out of sight...

Qin Han held the jade seal in his palm, quickly focused his mind, and casually set up a restriction on the open ground. At that moment, a message from headquarters quietly rang out in front of the main hall.

It was a slightly languid female voice, yet it subtly revealed a hint of helplessness:

"Little Qin, your friend's killing of Elder Chen of the Imperial Sky Observatory was discovered yesterday by Senior Brother Tan, who happened to be returning to report."

"Even bringing up Master couldn't stop him, so I had to use the urgent military situation in Tai'an Grand Prefecture as an excuse to prevent him from going there and causing trouble."

"But you know how stubborn that old man is. To put it simply, he's moved into your yard and plans to settle things with you when you get back."

"Tell your friend not to return to the Heavenly Supervision Department headquarters for the next ten years."

At this point, she sighed softly, "In that case, it can be considered that your senior sister's efforts over the past two days have not been in vain."

As the woman finished speaking...

Both of them were visibly moved.

"..."

Qin Han's throat bobbed; he never dreamed that his senior sister would drop such a bombshell.

He slowly turned his head to look at the composed White-robed Youth, and forced a smile:

"Mr. Ye, what should we say now?"

Although it is a question, there is no hint of inquiry in the words.

It was as if they already knew the other person's answer.

"Of course, we'll go back to headquarters."

Upon hearing this, Ye Li smiled slightly.

After stretching his muscles a little, his voice sounded somewhat casual:

"Protect your head, this will give you a taste of what the travel speed of the Divine Connection Realm is like."
