“You don’t have to worry about this, Respected Elder Tong Chuan.” Rong Xiu laughed. “If you really feel so upset about this, why don’t you take time out to go to Fairy Water Mound and comfort Master Jiang and Big Missy Jiang? After all, you’ve always had good relations with them.”

Tong Chuan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he panicked. He doubtfully glanced at Rong Xiu. Does Rong Xiu know something?

However, Rong Xiu’s elegant and demon-like face only had faint smiling intent. His eyes were very deep, and Tong Chuan couldn’t see anything.

This His Grace is getting increasingly cunning and harsh. It’s even harder to grasp his thoughts… Respected Elder Tong Chuan secretly felt that it was tricky as he took a deep breath in and gave himself an out. “Not really. As the Sky-Cloud Empire’s respected elder, I should maintain distance with all the

divisions. Therefore, how can I do that? I came to talk to you today because of you and the entire Sky-Cloud Empire. If I have offended you, Your Highness, I hope you’ll forgive me.”

Rong Xiu seemed not to take this to heart as he slightly smiled and nodded. “Of course. All these years, you’ve done your best for the Sky-Cloud Empire. You’re very loyal to us. Why would I be upset with you over such a small matter?”

“That’s great, that’s great…” Tong Chuan’s voice became softer.

Rong Xiu looked normal, but Tong Chuan felt increasingly nervous for some reason. After saying two sentences, he hurriedly bade farewell.

Staring at his departing back view, Rong Xiu squinted his eyes, and his lips curled up in disappointment. “He really… can’t suffer a hit…”

I just merely talked about it, and he panicked so much. It’s rare for him to be able to be so arrogant in the Sky-Cloud Empire for so many years.

When Rong Xiu thought about the academy, his gaze darkened. Then, he penned a letter.

Of course, Chu Liuyue didn’t know about the open fights and internal struggles outside. She was busy playing chess with Dugu Mobao.

Crash!

Dugu Mobao raised his finger, and a chess piece landed on the chessboard!

Chu Liuyue—lost!

Bam!

The chessboard disappeared!

Chu Liuyue rubbed her face. “I lost again.”

Dugu Mobao looked nonchalant. “You’ve improved a little, but it’s far from enough.”

Chu Liuyue glanced at him with grievances. “Making another five moves is also considered as an improvement?”

In those two hours, she didn’t recall how many times she had lost. After everything ended, her only ‘improvement’ was that she could make an extra measly five moves. Also, it was only once.

Chu Liuyue suddenly asked rather curiously, “Rong Xiu has played chess with you before, right? How many moves can he make under your hands?”

Dugu Mobao looked up and glanced at her. “More than you.”

Chu Liuyue was speechless.

Needless to say! Of course, I know that Rong Xiu is stronger than me now! Even during the contest the previous day, when Rong Xiu miserly lost half a piece to me, I knew that he hadn’t truly shown his true abilities.

After thinking for so long, Chu Liuyue felt very upset for not being able to legitimately beat him once.

“Let’s continue!”

However, Dugu Mobao shook his head. “We should practice the other things. If you want to continue, you can wait for tomorrow.”

Chu Liuyue then suddenly recalled that Dugu Mobao had specifically told her to leave four hours to duel with the puppet he produced.

She surveyed her surroundings. “It seems rather inappropriate here, right?”

Dugu Mobao jumped down and walked outside. “Jishen Palace is huge. Where can’t we train?”

After Chu Liuyue came out, she realized that she had thought too much.

Rong Xiu seemed to have already made the arrangements as Yan Qing directly brought them to the arena behind the palace.

On the way there, other than the soldiers dressed in black armor, Chu Liuyue didn’t see anyone else.

‘When she came up the night before, she didn’t notice it. But now, she realized that Jishen Palace was strictly guarded!

All the soldiers that were chosen to stay here were naturally very strong and disciplined.

Chu Liuyue noticed that most of them had light or heavy bloody auras—they had obviously fought their way out of death!

Chu Liuyue knew more about the Sky-Cloud Empire now.

The top clan in the God Residence Realm indeed couldn’t be underestimated!

The arena took up a lot of space, and the floor was made from black marble. One could vaguely see a gigantic Sky-Cloud Empire totem carved in the middle.

‘The strange thing was that nobody guarded this area. There was nobody else other than the three of them.

It was even quieter than outside.

Yan Qing explained, “Princess Consort, this is His Highness’s arena. Normally, only His Highness will come here alone. Without His Highness’s permission, nobody else can enter.”

Chu Liuyue nodded in understanding. Only he uses it!

“His Highness previously instructed that the two of you can casually come in and out of this place. You can just let me know whatever you need.”

Chu Liuyue raised her brows slightly and teased, “Only here? Can I go out of this Jishen Palace?”

Yan Qing’s icy face cracked, but he quickly returned to normal. “You’re wearing the holy ring on your hand. Your current position in the Sky-Cloud Empire is equivalent to His Grace, so you can naturally go wherever you want.”

This sounded decent.

“You’re dismissed first,” said Dugu Mobao.

This was said to Yan Qing.

Yan Qing respectfully bowed. “Okay. I’ll wait outside.”

Then, he quickly left without hesitation.

“It seems like Yan Qing and the rest know you too.” Chu Liuyue tured back to glance and saw that Yan Qing had already left with the door shut.

Dugu Mobao didn’t answer her and instead raised his chin. “You can go up now.”

Chu Liuyue raised her brows, went on her toes, and jumped to the middle of the arena!

“Let’s begin!”

Dugu Mobao flicked his wrist, and a ray of purple light flew out!

Bam!

‘The next moment, a big figure appeared in front of Chu Liuyue!

‘This was a puppet that was entirely copper. It was made from some unknown material that didn’t look like gold or jade, but it glowed lightly as the sun shone on it.

Chu Liuyue had previous experience. She knew that although this puppet seemed stiff, it was actually very agile. Other than it not being able to circulate force, it was no different from a real person!

Shua!

Purple light flashed across that puppet’s eyes. The next moment, it took action first, going straight for Chu Liuyue!

In that one moment, it had already arrived in front of her!

Chu Liuyue was stunned. How fast! It’s indeed beginner stage-eight!

‘The copper puppet hurled a punch out straight for Chu Liuyue’s face.

Chu Liuyue raised her arm to block it.

Bam!

‘A deep sound of impact was made.

Pain spread over! However, Chu Liuyue was much better than expected.

“Even though you’re only a beginner stage-seven warrior, you’ve passed the God Foreseeing Tribulation, so your muscle strength and physical abilities have greatly strengthened compared to before. Your true ability is actually that of a peak stage-seven warrior.” Dugu Mobao’s voice sounded.

His gaze then swept across Chu Liuyue’s face. “It seems like you don’t need ten days. Change it to five..”
