Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 259 Why Don't You Call Me Ancestor? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Sun Yanwan's excuse was still that it would be too dangerous to encounter Wuyinghou on the way...

Shi Si was genuinely worried that he would encounter Wuying Hou.

Sun Yanwan arranged a spacious carriage, purchased a batch of fruit, fine wine, various pastries, several sets of chess sets, customized soft pillows, and replaced all the interior furnishings. Only after everything was prepared did she leisurely set off.

Seeing how diligently he was preparing, Shi Si knew exactly what this little rascal was thinking. She ignored him and waited to see what he was up to.
After setting off, Sun Yanwan kicked off her shoes and socks inside the carriage, sat cross-legged, and practiced the Xuanhuang Scripture for more than two hours.

Seeing that he was still cultivating as usual, Shi Si smiled slightly and thought to herself, "Although he has amazing talent, he would not have been able to cultivate to the Innate Realm in ten years if he had not been so diligent."

Sun Yanwan advanced to the initial stage of the Innate Realm and felt that everything was different.

It turns out that true qi is just true qi. Although it can be controlled, it will dissipate quickly once it is used outside the body. Even if one has a sect's secret techniques to condense power, it will only dissipate more slowly.

But after advancing to the Innate Realm, he discovered something interesting: his true qi could actually carry a portion of his perception. When he used his true qi to perceive the world, it was as if the true qi had come to life and become a part of his body.

The martial art that benefits one the most from advancing to the Innate Realm is not one of the most powerful techniques, but rather the Taiyi Hunxian Silk.

Sun Yanwan originally thought it was a palm strike that could split the air, but after advancing to the Innate Realm, he realized that this extraordinary skill was actually the most superior method of manipulating true qi.

Under the control of the Taiyi Hunxian Silk Heart Method, Sun Yanwan's true energy flowed freely and unrestrainedly. Even if it overflowed from her body, she could still control it at will. Although the control over true energy decreased as it moved further away from her body, the power of her palm strike could still bend and change in countless ways within a few feet.

It can be said that only when one reaches the Innate Realm can the Taiyi Hunxian Silk be called a divine skill.

Sun Yanwan exhaled a deep breath of true energy, waking up from his cultivation. He saw Shi Si staring at him with her beautiful eyes, and his face flushed red. He asked, "What are you looking at, Aunt Shi?"

Shi Si said with a half-smile, "I'm watching a little rascal who's about to do something bad."

Sun Yanwan pretended to know nothing and said with a smile, "Besides the two of us, there is no one else in the carriage."

He diligently fetched several cups, selected a variety of juicy fruits, and used his palm power to extract their juice from them. He also activated the Mysterious Ice Mirror to freeze some ice crystals, then poured a cup into Shi Si's cup, saying, "The weather is hot, Aunt Shi, please cool off!"

Shi Si wanted to say that it was only early spring, so there was no summer heat at all. But after thinking about it, she smiled and took the drink, taking a small sip. She found it refreshing and truly delightful.

Sun Yanwan made seven or eight cups, took one for herself, drank it down in one gulp, shook her head and savored it for a moment, then said, "Not inferior to... the past!"

Shi Si naturally didn't know what Sun Yanwan meant by "the past," but she was too lazy to ask him.

When Sun Yanwan was talking about the past, she was naturally referring to the time before she traveled back in time. Back then, there was a wide variety of chilled drinks, and a bottle cost only a few yuan. Refrigerators were common, and although ice makers were a niche product, they only cost a few hundred yuan each. In the summer, freezing a batch of ice cubes and pairing them with various drinks, taking a sip, was pure bliss.

He has now only cultivated to the Innate Realm, and it is thanks to the extraordinary power of the Profound Ice Treasure Mirror that he can enjoy this moment of comfort.

Sun Yanwan, holding his cup, moved closer to Shi Si, touched his aunt's plump thigh, and then lay down. Shi Si was slightly startled, thinking he was about to do something abrupt, but he simply lay down and gently stroked Sun Yanwan's cheek.

A pair of hands, flawless and exquisitely carved like jade, gently caressed her face. Sun Yanwan felt incredibly comfortable and murmured to herself, "Auntie! Do you think that if we get married, we can live such a pleasant and comfortable life every day?"

Shi Si blushed slightly and said, "Who can stop you from living whatever life you want?"

Sun Yanwan knew what was going on, smiled brightly, and said, "I knew my aunt loved me."

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Shi Si's slender waist, did nothing, and fell into a deep sleep.

Although he wanted to have Shi Si, he knew that things couldn't be rushed; he had to proceed step by step and gradually break down Shi Si's heart.

That's enough for today.

Looking at Sun Yanwan resting his head on her lap, Shi Si felt a strange emotion. When she first met Sun Yanwan, she felt that this young man was indeed extraordinary. He was elegant and unrestrained, a person she had never met before. She even blurted out, "If you have the talent of your nephew, I will abandon the rules of the Shi family and the reputation of Shao Chan Temple and go with you directly."

Shi Si never imagined that fate would be so strange, and that she would actually become this young man's betrothed.

Moreover, Sun Yanwan was unlike any other man she had ever met in her life.

I never let her have any trouble.

For the sake of their marriage, Sun Yanwan could invite the Seven Friends of Songyang to come down the mountain together and personally propose marriage at Shaochan Temple, offering Xu Yicheng as a betrothal gift. In the future, no matter who proposes, Shi Si will be the Sun family's doctor and the lady of the house, with both families' sects acting as the head of the household, making their status perfectly legitimate.

Although the young man was impulsive and loved to cause trouble, he was always able to put her at ease when he was around. It seemed that as long as Sun Yanwan was by her side, she didn't have to worry about anything. No matter how big the trouble was, Sun Yanwan could handle it, and he could arrange everything perfectly.

Shi Si gently touched Sun Yanwan's brow, then suddenly thought, "He's advanced to the Innate Realm, and we'll probably be getting married in a few days. Should we take him home for a visit?"

The Shi family is also one of the five great families, known as the Shi family that always produces the most beautiful women in the world.

Although Shi Si did not hold this title in her generation, and even though Yang Diao'er ranked first on the list of martial arts beauties compiled by the Northern Yan people, no one ever questioned the Shi family's reputation. After bathing and changing, Zhang Yuanqiao felt refreshed all over.

Sun Yanwan and Shi Si rode slowly in a carriage, but they had already sent out a fast horse to report to the Songyang Sect. Zhang Yuanqiao learned that his second disciple had made great progress in his travels and had advanced to the Innate Realm. Although he wasn't particularly worried, he still couldn't resist taking a bath.

Zhang Yuanqiao stroked his beard leisurely, thinking that he should go to Du'e Temple later to tell his senior brother.

His eldest disciple was the youngest grandmaster in the world, and his second disciple...

Well, he's a bit of a failure, not quite the youngest innate being in the world, but he raised the youngest innate being in the world, who is now at Taiyi Temple.

As for the youngest top scholar in the imperial examination in Dalang, the next generation leader of the literary world, he is not worth mentioning at all.

They belong to a martial arts sect; they don't care about such things.

Most importantly, Sun Yanwan's name has been recorded in the sect's classics; almost all of the Five Classics and Thirteen Great Arts contain Sun Yanwan's name.

No matter who you tell him, Zhang Yuanqiao is a skilled teacher and truly deserves to be called a grandmaster of our time.

Zhang Yuanqiao was enjoying himself when a young Taoist boy suddenly came in and said, "There is a letter from Da Lang."

Zhang Yuanqiao told the young Taoist to put it down, then flicked his sleeve, and the letter floated out of the envelope and unfolded in the air. After glancing at it, Zhang Yuanqiao was slightly surprised and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect this old thing to actually succeed."

"However, even if he succeeds, he will no longer be the awe-inspiring ancestor he once was; he will just be a nobody from the Northwest."

"I just don't know what the attitude of the Da Lang royal family is?"

"then……"

"Forget it, let's not talk about the past."

In Luojing City, inside the palace that originally belonged to the ancestor, a tall and elegant young man, who resembled Zhang Qingxi somewhat but was seven or eight years older, around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, exuded a surging power that seemed ready to erupt at any moment. He gazed at the scenery outside the window for a long time before finally saying, "Is this considered possession?"

"I now know who I am, but I also have a lot of memories of my ancestors, as well as their insights into martial arts throughout their lives."

Am I some kind of monster?

Just then, a eunuch rushed over, bowed deeply upon seeing the young man, and exclaimed, "Second Prince! His Majesty summons you."

The young man smiled slightly and said, "Why don't you call me ancestor?"

The eunuch dared not raise his head. After a long while, the young man said in a low voice, "So you also know that I am not the ancestor."

He flicked his sleeves and left the palace.

The eunuch hurriedly followed.

The emperor of the Great Lang Dynasty was reclining on his dragon throne, taking a nap with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, looked at this "son," and couldn't help but ask, "Have you digested what the ancestor has bestowed upon you?"

The second prince clasped his hands and replied respectfully, "Your subject has fully digested what the ancestor bestowed upon me, and is only one step away from becoming a grandmaster. In a little more time, I will surely be able to cross that threshold."

"At that time, I will be the only Grandmaster of the Imperial Clan, and I will surely be able to support the Great Lang Imperial Clan."

The Emperor of Dalang remained silent for a long time before saying in a low voice, "While you were in seclusion digesting the legacy of our ancestors, your fourth brother, Zhang Qingxi, has already advanced to the rank of Grandmaster."

"You should also strive to become a Grandmaster soon!"

"With you two brothers, our Zhang family will surely prosper."

The second prince immediately showed an incredulous expression and exclaimed, "How could my fourth brother also advance to the Grandmaster level?"

The emperor's voice, seemingly descending from the heavens, answered: "He participated in the battle for the throne, defeated the Northern Yan Great Sun Golden Feather Jiyatana who had advanced to the Grandmaster level, and after stepping down from the throne, he became a Grandmaster in one step..."

The second prince could hardly believe his ears. He even thought he was hallucinating again, or that his memory was playing tricks on him. What? He defeated Giatanna, who had advanced to the Grandmaster level, and then became a Grandmaster after stepping down from the throne? He couldn't help but exclaim, "Father, are you confused? According to you, wouldn't my fourth brother be a Grandmaster by nature?"

The Emperor of Dalang chuckled and said nothing more.
