Upon hearing this, the Duan Household couldn't help but be taken aback.
The head of the Supreme Institute...
Although they didn't know much about what was happening in the Holy Heaven Domain, they did know a little about the power structure there.
In a power like this, the head of each academy is at least Half-Saint.
Half-Saint...
It's really great that the Fourth Miss has a Half-Saint teacher!
Some of the Duan Household immediately smiled, clearly delighted.
But Duan Yangqiu hesitated, frowning as if he wanted to say something.
Half-Saint...
While being Half-Saint isn't bad, the master of the Half-Saint academy is far superior to the Saint Realm. Even if this Saint Realm is just a remnant soul, he's still much better than Half-Saint. The only comparable aspect is that this Half-Saint academy master is a living person with considerable connections...
But no matter how you look at it, a remnant soul from the Saint Realm is more helpful for Sword Dao.
But he didn't say anything.
After all, he knew very well that his fourth sister was just like that. Half-Saint was not weak, and becoming the disciple of such a person was a good thing.
No matter what I say now, I can't change my fourth sister's mind.
She appears gentle to her family, but in reality, she possesses the sharpness and perseverance of a swordsman, and once she makes a decision, no one can change it.
Moreover, their Lineage's ancestor was only Half-Saint.
Ye Jinzhi's expression suddenly turned rather unpleasant.
She never imagined that Duan Nianwei, whom she had banished to the Primordial Holy Heaven to eke out a living, would have such fortuitous opportunity to become a disciple of Half-Saint Half-Saint.
Becoming an apprentice and entering the Holy Heaven to learn skills are two completely different things.
The terms "master" and "teacher" are completely different.
A teacher for a day is a father for life. If a disciple has any problems, the master will never stand idly by.
Such a great fortuitous opportunity, how did it fall into the hands of this scoundrel!
She gritted her teeth, her heart filled with resentment and an indescribable bitterness.
Moreover, their Half-Saint's master was already on par with their ancestor in strength...
Thinking this way, Ye Jinzhi felt even more upset, but in the end she forced herself to comfort herself: so what if he's Half-Saint?
Their ancestor was Late Stage of Half-Saint.
Moreover, it's just a hair's breadth away from becoming Saint Realm.
It's hard to say which one is stronger!
Duan Nianwei didn't care at all what her sister-in-law was thinking.
Her vision had long since moved beyond such trivial matters.
The path of the Sword Dao allows no room for anything messy or disorderly; only by cultivating oneself and one's mind can one reach greater heights.
Her future is destined to follow in her master's footsteps, accompanied by her senior brothers and sisters, growing ever brighter and broader.
Ye Jinzhi?
He was just a stranger.
It won't bother me in the slightest.
It's nothing to worry about.
Duan Nianwei calmly shifted her gaze, pretending not to see the almost frantic jealousy and resentment on Ye Jinzhi's face.
Just then, a figure flashed across the horizon, and two sword lights, one red and one white, swept past and landed around the group.
The Duan Household instinctively looked over.
Upon seeing the two women, the Duan Household's eyes lit up with immense joy.
"It's Miss Su!"
"Is Miss Su back?"
"Shut up!"
A sharp shout.
It was Ye Jinzhi again.
Ye Jinzhi frowned deeply and said sharply, "She's not a Duan Household. If you keep shouting like this, people might start to think she has some kind of relationship with the Duan Household."
"If some people later use the Duan Household's name to swindle and deceive, can you bear that responsibility?"
The Duan Household, who had been angrily berated by her, all fell silent and lowered their heads.
However, the Qi Ingestion in their expressions couldn't be faked.
Duan Nianwei raised an eyebrow as she watched this scene.
Someone her sister-in-law dislikes?
She looked at the " Miss Su," who was carrying a long sword on her back. Her expression was calm, and she merely glanced at the Duan Household's side without showing any intention of coming over.
Even though Duan Nianwei considered herself to be unparalleled in beauty, she had to admit that this " Miss Su " was truly exceptionally beautiful, even surpassing her own appearance.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
Everyone in the academy calls themselves the Sword Fairy, but looking at this Miss Su, she felt that the other's temperament surpassed even that of a fairy.
Judging from the sword she carries on her back, she must use a sword, right?
I just don't know how talented she really is...
but...
"Brother, has something happened?"
Thinking of the hostility her sister-in-law had mentioned, Duan Nianwei turned her head and asked Duan Yangqiu in a low voice.
Duan Yangqiu was very embarrassed.
But looking at Duan Nianwei's unquestionable gaze, he thought to himself, "My little sister has become even more formidable since she went out, and her aura is starting to resemble that of our ancestor..." He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to reveal the truth.
After hearing the story, Duan Nianwei's expression was beyond ugly.
She angrily retorted, "How can you act like this as if you're doing right by our ancestors?"
"I..."
Duan Yangqiu could only smile wryly and become even more submissive.
Seeing this, Duan Nianwei felt stifled.
She never imagined that in just a few years, her sister-in-law would become so outrageous.
The Duan Household did indeed take in this Miss Su for a period of time.
However, they didn't use the Duan Household's resources at all.
Even so, it's the ancestor's business.
No matter what, it doesn't mean that they sold themselves to the Duan Household and became Duan Household slaves.
On the contrary, according to her elder brother, Miss Su had helped their family a lot these days.
But how did Ye Jinzhi treat others?
Let alone a thank-you gift.
They're even stingy with a single pill!
Not only that, they even suppressed and marginalized the other party for a long time until they were driven away...
this!
this!!
Duan Nianwei took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and said in a low, angry voice, "I will definitely tell the patriarch about this when I return to the Duan Household!"
She was too lazy to argue with Ye Jinzhi.
But that doesn't mean she'll just stand by and watch Ye Jinzhi ruin the Duan Household.
If this continues, and all those who fall on hard times and are taken in by the Duan Household, or those who come to Duan Household, are subjected to such suppression and humiliation, how can the Duan Household possibly maintain a good reputation?
Are there any exceptional talents or geniuses willing to join the Duan Household?
hateful!
Just as she was feeling annoyed, she saw Miss Su arrive with her companion, who seemed quite close to her, and they had already stepped onto the white jade steps together.
She subconsciously observed Miss Su's expression.
But his gaze was calm, like a pool of spring water, unwavering and effortless.
and...
"W-what happened?"
What's going on!?
Everyone watching the two break into the Sword Domain was astonished, staring in disbelief at the white jade steps that were bursting with sword light but posed no threat whatsoever.
The entire white jade staircase was shaking and booming, like a salute of cannons, as if all nations were coming to offer their congratulations.
There were roars of beasts, the cries of swords, and the resounding cries of determination.
"What happened? What exactly is going on?"
"Hiss... Look at her, them!!"
