162: Outer world?

Wu Linglong saw Jiang Ye walking towards her naked and smiled slightly, saying, "Hehehe, Young Master, are you planning to help This humble servant bathe?"

"Yeah! I've just finished cultivating and come out of seclusion, let's wash together!" *Chua!* With a splash, he jumped directly into the large bathtub, reached out to pull her into his arms, and asked, "Should I wash the front or the back first?"

Wu Linglong wrapped both arms around his neck, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "I'll do whatever Young Master says."

After scrubbing each other for a while, neither could hold back and began some preliminary play. A moment later, right there in the bathtub, they got down to business...

Over two hours later...

The two emerged from the bathtub, each donning only a thin outer robe, and sat down at the wine table to drink.

Wu Linglong said, "Young Master, the Four Domains Grand Competition will begin soon. Have you thought about which power you want to join?"

"I don't know. I don't understand those powers. Do you know which Sect has special cultivation grounds that can help someone quickly raise their Realm?"

Wu Linglong stood up, sat in Jiang Ye's lap, and leaned in to whisper, "I haven't heard of such a thing. Usually, these are Sect secrets and wouldn't be revealed lightly."

"I see. Then I'll just have to decide when the time comes."

"Does Young Master know that even for the Four Domains Grand Competition, the people coming are only from powers in the Outer Profound Realm?"

Jiang Ye asked in confusion, "Outer Profound Realm?"

"Yes. The Profound Realm is divided into the Outer Profound Realm and the Inner Profound Realm. A power like my Cold Water Palace is only an Outer Profound Realm power. In fact, the true Profound Realm refers to the Inner Profound Realm. Among the powers in the Inner Profound Realm, an Earth Realm cultivator can only be an Outer Sect Disciple."

Jiang Ye was shocked. "The Earth Realm is only enough to be an Outer Sect Disciple? Then how strong must those people be?"

"I've heard that some Old Ancestor-level figures in the Inner Profound Realm have already broken through to the King Realm."

"King Realm?" Jiang Ye took a swig directly from the wine flask. "In front of those people, what difference is there between us and ants?"

"Indeed, we aren't even ants. However! You are different, Young Master. You will surely Breakthrough to an even higher Realm in the future."

"Is that so? How am I different?" Jiang Ye reached a hand to her chest, squeezing a tender, supple breast.

"Young Master, if you keep playing with me like that, This humble servant will want it again." Wu Linglong kissed him directly, and the two began their preliminary play once more before getting down to business...

Seven days later.

Jiang Ye, Shi Bao, and Shi Feng walked out of the Linglong Pavilion together. Shi Feng said, "Ye Zai, at our current Realms, our Space Traversal distance is much further. We can tear through space and go straight home."

"Yeah, let's go! You guys head back to Shiyuan Village, and I'll go back to the Middle Profound Domain. My family and I will visit Shiyuan Village to hang out with you later."

*Rip!* Two spatial rifts opened, and they each entered, traversing back to their homes.

Jiang Ye instantly appeared in the sky above the Jiang Family in the Middle Profound Domain. "Hahaha! I'm finally back. It feels like it's been a long time."

"Who's there?! How dare you stand above my Jiang Family!" a youth shouted from below.

Jiang Ye immediately put on a mask, intending to tease him. The youth appeared to be fifteen or sixteen years old and had reached the first stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm—definitely a Genius in the Middle Profound Domain.

"I've come to collect a debt from the Jiang Family. Hand over half of your resources!"

"Who exactly are you? This is the home of King of the Town Jiang Ye. You'd better think carefully."

"I don't care what King he is. Come up and fight, or I'll wipe you all out... Hm? Holy crap!" *Bang!* "Ahhh..."
