23: The third personally taught disciple

“Super massive news! Super massive news!”

“Following the extermination of the Three Great Sects' Sect Masters and their group...”

“...the lineages of the three top-tier Sects were also cleaved by a mysterious Saber Qi. None in the entire Sects were spared; they were all wiped out. From now on, the Three Great Sects no longer exist in Yunzhou.”

The news of the destruction of the three Sects quickly topped Yunzhou's trending topics again.

“What? Didn't the Three Great Sects just lose their Sect Masters and so many Elders and disciples? How could their lineages be wiped out so quickly?”

“This is too exaggerated! All three Sects had Earth Venerable Old Ancestors! How could they be destroyed just like that?”

“Sigh, who knows? I heard the way the three Sects were destroyed was the same: they were all obliterated by a terrifying Saber Qi that cleaved a thousand miles.”

“Hiss, cutting a thousand miles with one saber strike—what level of Powerful Expert can achieve that?”

“It couldn't be Qingtian Sect, right? The three Sects just made an enemy of them and then they were destroyed. How could it be such a coincidence?”

“If Qingtian Sect has such a terrifying Powerful Expert, then it truly deserves to be the overlord of Yunzhou.”

“Forget it! Even without such a Powerful Expert, it's already the overlord of Yunzhou. Do you dare object?”

“Hehe, yes, yes. With the Three Great Sects destroyed, who am I to say anything?”

Qingtian Sect, Main Hall.

Jiang Chen was studying the Way of Tea with Liu Shu.

At this moment, Li Big Saber walked in, bowed, and said, “Reporting to the Sect Master, This Subordinate has already wiped out the lineages of those few Sects as per your instructions.”

“Mhm, well done. You may leave.” Jiang Chen took a sip of tea and said calmly.

Since these three Sects dared to try and destroy Qingtian Sect, he naturally wouldn't be polite, making them vanish directly from the Canglan Continent.

“Yes, This Subordinate takes his leave!” Li Big Saber bowed again and quietly walked out of the Main Hall.

[Ding, a Tenth-Grade Talent Disciple has been discovered, assessed as a Personal Disciple. Host, quickly go and bring her into the Sect.]

Just as Jiang Chen was drinking tea and enjoying Liu Shu's shoulder massage service, the System's announcement sounded.

“Oh, a Tenth-Grade Talent Disciple? Looks like I'll be gaining another Personal Disciple.”

Jiang Chen smiled, put down his teacup, and said to Liu Shu, who was still massaging his shoulders, “Liu Shu, let's stop here for today. This Sect Master has something to take care of. You should go make tea first.”

Hearing this.

Liu Shu didn't hesitate, immediately stopped, bowed, and saluted, “Yes, Sect Master. This Subordinate will go make tea now.”

After speaking, she walked toward the enlightenment tea tree outside the hall.

Seeing Liu Shu leave, Jiang Chen sliced open a Spatial Rift inside the hall and slowly walked into it.

In a valley outside the city in Yongzhou, Cangyu Dynasty.

A young woman in a yellow dress, who was at Soul Projection Peak, looked glamorous and had a fiery figure, stumbled into the valley.

“Haha, Mu Xueqing, you've been poisoned by my Joyful Union Powder. You can't run away. Just submit to me obediently.”

Behind the Yellow-Dressed Young Woman.

A young man dressed in luxurious clothes and wearing a Jade Crown revealed an evil smile as he followed leisurely into the valley.

Several Human Venerable Realm cultivators, dressed in armor and looking like guards, wisely stood watch at the Valley Entrance.

“Cui Hai, you beast! Aren't you afraid my Royal Father will execute you?” Mu Xueqing's face was flushed crimson, and she shouted furiously in exasperation.

“Haha, your Royal Father execute me? Dream on! He can barely protect himself now, so what right does he have to execute me?” The young man laughed maniacally a few times, looking at Mu Xueqing with utter contempt.

“You... what exactly does your Cui Family want to do?” Mu Xueqing looked terrified, and a feeling of dread surged in her heart.

She had thought Cui Hai was merely acting on lust when he administered the Joyful Union Powder to her.

But hearing Cui Hai's words now, something unexpected must have happened.

“What do we want to do?”

Cui Hai revealed a mocking expression. “Don't you have a guess in your heart? My Cui Family is rebelling today! The Emperor's seat rotates, and today it's the turn of my Cui Family! Otherwise, why would I dare administer Joyful Union Powder to you, my Royal Highness Princess?”

After Cui Hai finished speaking, he approached Mu Xueqing with a wicked smile.

“You... don't come any closer.” Mu Xueqing showed a look of despair, weakly and powerlessly shouting.

She was now completely limp, without an ounce of strength; even attempting to resist was a luxury.

“Hehe, you think I won't come just because you say so? Do you think you are still a princess?” Cui Hai's steps did not stop, and he continued walking toward Mu Xueqing.

Just at this critical moment.

Jiang Chen's figure appeared beside Mu Xueqing.

“Who are you? Are you trying to ruin This Little Prince's good time?” Cui Hai was startled by Jiang Chen's sudden appearance, retreated a few steps, and angrily questioned him.

“Heh, I am the one sending you to meet the King of Hell.” Jiang Chen glanced at Mu Xueqing and waved a burst of power toward Cui Hai.

“Bang!”

Cui Hai's body instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

“Little Prince!!”

The guards at the valley entrance heard the commotion and originally intended to come in and help.

But Jiang Chen's hand was too fast; they could only watch helplessly as Cui Hai exploded on the spot.

“Damn it! You dare to kill the Little Prince! I'll make you pay with your life!!”

The few guards rushed toward Jiang Chen like madmen.

“Since you are so loyal, then go down and accompany your Little Prince.” Jiang Chen said calmly to the guards, waving out several bursts of power again.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

The few guards, just like their Little Prince, fell to the ground to nourish the flowers and plants.

“Ah, such a handsome young master... I can't control myself...”

The medicinal power of the Joyful Union Powder destroyed Mu Xueqing's last bit of consciousness, and she instinctively lunged toward Jiang Chen.

“Stop your nonsense!!”

Jiang Chen helplessly waved out a burst of Great Emperor Power at the lunging Mu Xueqing, removing the Joyful Union Powder from her body.

Just kidding.

This was his third Personal Disciple; how could he let her commit such a rebellious act?

At this moment, Mu Xueqing's information was displayed on his System Panel.

[Mu Xueqing, 19 years old, Tenth-Grade Talent, Soul Projection Peak Cultivation.]

[Special Physique: Space Physique]

[Life Trajectory: Born into the Cangyu Dynasty Imperial Family, she is the Cangyu Emperor's only daughter. She grew up carefree, deeply loved by the Cangyu Emperor. Today, the Prince of Parallel Titles of the Cangyu Dynasty rebelled. She was invited by the Prince of Parallel Titles' son to hunt outside the city and unintentionally drank Spirit Tea containing Joyful Union Powder, resulting in her current state.]

“Huh? What happened to me?”

Before long, Mu Xueqing groggily woke up.

She remembered that in the last moments of her fuzzy consciousness, an extremely handsome young master had killed Cui Hai and his guards, saving her.

Because of the medicinal power of the Joyful Union Powder, she couldn't control herself and lunged fiercely at that young master.

“Awake?” Jiang Chen spoke up from the side.

If he wasn't a Great Emperor in cultivation, he might actually have fallen victim to this Little Girl's clutches today.

“Ah, ah?” As soon as Mu Xueqing saw Jiang Chen's face, she shrieked in surprise, her face quickly turning crimson with embarrassment.

Wasn't this the young master she had fiercely lunged at after her consciousness was controlled by the Joyful Union Powder?

Could something have already happened between them?

Otherwise, the medicinal power of the Joyful Union Powder wouldn't have disappeared, nor would she have woken up.
