Chapter 218: Chapter 218: Ren Jingyi Shows Up

Meanwhile, Shangguan Yulan looked at Ye Yunyi, remembering the instructions from Fu Huiyu and Yu Bingyan.

She decided to speak up.

Ye Yunyi calmed himself, lifted his teacup for a sip, and looked at Shangguan Yulan. "Go on. What is it?"

For a moment, Shangguan Yulan was completely stunned.

’Geez.’

’Are you the King General or am I?’

’Why does it feel like I’m the one reporting to you?’

’Am I even the King General of this barrier anymore?’

Shangguan Yulan suddenly felt rather wronged.

Seeing her hesitate, Ye Yunyi prompted her, "What is it? Just say it."

Shangguan Yulan: "..."

’This is tough.’

Finally, she spoke.

"The Third King General and Sixth King General have also heard that your child is an Innate Golden-Level Mutant. They wanted me to ask you... if you have any more children in the future, would it be possible to let them serve as their teachers?"

Her words left Ye Yunyi speechless.

’Damn.’

’So one of you shows up, and now the rest are coming as a group, is that it?’

’Isn’t having one of my children as an apprentice enough for you all?’

’And you want more?’

Exasperated, Ye Yunyi waved his hand dismissively.

"Don’t even think about it. I’ll teach the rest myself."

Shangguan Yulan wasn’t bothered by this answer.

After all, she already had her apprentice.

"Alright, I’ll be going then," Shangguan Yulan said.

And with that, she left.

As she walked out of the manor, she saw Ye Yunyi’s wives, each with a large, pregnant belly, and was inwardly stunned.

Several of them were quite far along and looked like they were about to give birth soon.

’Their own power levels don’t seem that high.’

’After all, Ye Chen was Ye Yunyi’s first child, so his case could have been a fluke. But if the next ones are also born as Innate Mutants...’

’...then that would prove Ye Yunyi’s genes are truly terrifying.’

’This guy...’

’He really does have a specialty.’

’Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to make so many girls fall for him.’

’Even if you ignore everything else, that specialty of his is pretty good if it can produce such great children.’

With that thought, Shangguan Yulan left the manor.

She then headed for the training grounds.

There, she saw Gao Zhen and the others gathered around Ye Chen, instructing him.

Seeing Shangguan Yulan return, everyone stood at attention. "Eighth King General."

Ye Chen stood at attention as well.

Shangguan Yulan couldn’t help but smile at the sight of Ye Chen.

’This little guy is so much better than his old man.’

’That guy is completely unyielding.’

Shangguan Yulan walked over, looked at Ye Chen, and began to instruct him.

「At the same time.」

Inside another First Line Barrier, Ren Jingyi had also returned.

She thought back on her trip to the Spiritual Fusion Barrier.

The more she thought, the more she seethed with anger.

The position of branch leader for the Alliance Guard Army, which had been within her grasp, was now on hold!

’I’m going to the Cyan Ink Barrier!’

Ren Jingyi made up her mind instantly.

She and Ye Yunyi had tied in the vote, three to three. This meant the King Generals considered their strengths to be roughly equal.

In that case, she would have to settle it with a real fight.

If she could beat Ye Yunyi to the ground,

then the three King Generals who voted for him would have nothing left to say.

They would have no choice but to obediently recognize her as the leader of the Spiritual Fusion Barrier’s Alliance Guard Army branch.

’That’s right!’

Right then!

Ren Jingyi mounted her Exotic Beast and headed for the Cyan Ink Barrier.

She spurred it on, rushing toward the Cyan Ink Barrier at top speed.

Only when she was close to the Cyan Ink Barrier did she finally slow down.

Meanwhile, a hidden sentry of the Cyan Ink Barrier’s Alliance Guard Army, stationed in the jungle, spotted Ren Jingyi.

A high-ranking officer looked at Ren Jingyi.

He recognized her immediately.

’Her!’

He instantly recalled Ren Jingyi’s identity: the Fifth King General’s daughter!

’Damn.’

’What is someone like her doing here?’

Then, he quickly rushed back toward the barrier, managing to return to the Cyan Ink Barrier before Ren Jingyi arrived.

He then made his way to the training grounds.

On the training grounds, Shangguan Yulan was wholeheartedly focused on teaching Ye Chen.

Just then, the high-ranking officer approached from a distance. "Eighth King General!"

"What is it?" Shangguan Yulan asked, looking at him.

She knew this officer was a hidden sentry in the jungle and wouldn’t abandon his post without a special reason.

"I saw the Fifth King General’s daughter, Ren Jingyi, approaching from a distance. It looks like she’s heading for our Cyan Ink Barrier."

’Ren Jingyi is here?!’

Shangguan Yulan let out a soft sound of surprise.

Then, a smile spread across her face.

After all, she knew exactly why Ren Jingyi had come.

’She’s definitely not here to see me.’

’Given Ren Jingyi’s personality, she must be here to challenge Ye Yunyi.’

’That girl is far too proud to tolerate the outcome of that vote.’

Shangguan Yulan then thought about Ren Jingyi’s strength.

’You could say she’s quite formidable.’

’After all, she was already at the Half-Step King Level.’

’And with the Fifth King General’s guidance...’

’...her combat proficiency is extremely high.’

Her combat record wasn’t earned by having her father carry her, as some people rumored.

No, that girl earned every bit of it herself.

"Hehe, now there’s going to be a good show to watch."

As Shangguan Yulan thought this, her eyes darted around, and an expression of someone ready to watch a play appeared on her face.

’After all, when someone like her comes looking for Ye Yunyi, a fight is inevitable.’

’When the time comes, it’ll be hard to say whether the wolf eats the tiger or the tiger eats the wolf.’

’If Ye Yunyi gets defeated...’

’...he probably won’t be so smug anymore.’

’Nice.’

’This outcome is definitely something to look forward to.’

In truth, Shangguan Yulan really wanted to go watch.

However, if she were discovered, she’d likely be accused of just watching from the sidelines.

’Better not.’

「At the same time.」

Ren Jingyi had already entered the city.

After asking for Ye Yunyi’s address, she headed toward the manor.

「Meanwhile.」

Ye Yunyi was mounting his Crimson Flame Tiger, getting ready to go pick up Ye Chen and bring him home.

Just as they left the manor, the Crimson Flame Tiger sensed an aura from not far away.

It immediately bared its fangs.

Then, it started moving forward,

staring at an Exotic Beast slowly approaching them.

The Exotic Beast was shaped like a horse and was pure white.

Its body was enormous!

On its head was a short, sharp horn.

It looked just like the legendary Unicorn.

Ye Yunyi looked at the Exotic Beast and sighed in admiration. ’This Exotic Beast is quite beautiful.’

’If I could get my hands on it, it would be nice for my wives to ride in the future.’

The Crimson Flame Tiger stared at the Unicorn, lowered its body into a crouch, and advanced.

Its massive jaws parted slightly, revealing sharp fangs.

A cold glint seemed to shimmer on their tips.

Instantly, the power of a Mid-Star Stage beast erupted from it.

It looked as if it was about to attack at any moment.

The Unicorn, seeing the Crimson Flame Tiger’s posture, was startled and dared not advance any further.
