Chapter 1409: Chapter 774: Creating Heaven and Earth, the Grandmaster Establishes Authority! (Part 3)

After three rounds of food, as the lively atmosphere filled the room for more than half an hour, Xue Na and Yu Kaidong began clearing the dishes from the table.

Xue Na paused for a moment, glanced at him, and the next second her gaze shifted quickly to Yang Yuelian.

As the two were puzzled, they heard Xue Na laugh and say:

"Chuan’Er, Yuelian, you two aren’t young anymore. Nowadays, people marry early, and kids your age have already started school. When are you planning to get married?"

"..."

What had to come would come; he knew that Aunt would urge them about marriage...

Meng Chuan and Yang Yuelian exchanged a glance, sensing each other’s intentions. Under his girlfriend’s prompting gaze, Meng Chuan reluctantly said:

"Aunt, the two of us... don’t plan to marry anytime soon, and having children is even further off. Right now, Martial Arts is the priority..."

"Chuan’Er is now a Land Immortal, and Xiaoyue is so outstanding; she’ll eventually become an Immortal too. They’re different from us ordinary folks; don’t worry about Immortal matters!"

Meng Yongzhi hurriedly stepped in to mediate, and Xue Na shot him a glare, finally letting the two off the hook.

Meng Chuan threw an appreciative smile toward his uncle, grateful for Old Meng’s help in diverting the focus...

Xu Qingfeng and the others, watching Meng Chuan’s awkward predicament, burst into laughter, the atmosphere exceedingly joyful.

"So what if he’s a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he still gets pressured to marry by his family, hahaha!"

Xu Qingfeng chuckled inwardly but then stopped abruptly as he thought of something:

"Hmm? Wait a minute, Meng has someone, and I don’t even have a partner!"

...

"I still have to go to Shanghai to continue studying with Bai Venerate, so I’m leaving now!"

Yang Yuelian lay against Meng Chuan’s chest, finding it more comforting than any pillow.

After the meal, she visited Meng Chuan’s research institute, stayed in a treasured spot for a while, and then bid him farewell.

This time, as San Qin faced difficulties, she and Bai Venerate, under the order of the Human Alliance, rushed back from Shanghai to support Linzhou.

After the war, Bai Zhifeng managed post-war affairs in Linzhou and only gave her a ’day off’ today before she needed to return to Shanghai tomorrow.

Feeling that Meng Chuan was off, Yang Yuelian came to Yong’an first thing on her day off to visit her boyfriend.

"Okay, I’ll take you back to Linzhou. Let’s not keep Aunt Bai waiting."

Meng Chuan fondly stroked his girlfriend’s black hair and smiled.

Originally, he thought his girlfriend would study with Aunt Bai for just ten days or so until the Phoenix Wood was fully learned.

He didn’t expect Aunt Bai to let her continue learning, which truly delighted him.

Meng Chuan mused to himself:

"True talent will shine eventually, and Yuelian, with her resilience, superb talent, and incredible qualities, has great potential.

After spending some time together, Aunt Bai, as the leader of the Phoenix faction, naturally discovered Yuelian’s shining spots with her keen eye."

The wilderness.

In the high sky, Meng Chuan held his girlfriend with one arm, his mind extending into countless invisible tentacles, constantly perceiving everything around them.

Be vigilant!

Though the Human Alliance powerfully retaliated against the Demon Nest under Ancestral Dragon’s command, almost scouring Qin Ridge with a fine-toothed comb.

But Meng Chuan remained uneasy, fearing remnants still lurking, insisting on escorting his girlfriend back to Linzhou.

Yang Yuelian looked around, feeling the invisible magnetic field lift, making her flight even more comfortable than before with Meng Chuan.

"It’s different after becoming a Grandmaster."

Meng Chuan laughed:

"Before, I was flying by running on two legs; now we’re floating with the earth’s magnetic fields, which makes a bit of difference, but the previous ’flight method’ was faster overall.

The greatest change as a Grandmaster is not just breaking the Soul boundary with Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, but also the internal world integrating with the outside world, making the human body fundamentally different, the Gang Transformation... feeling like not even the same species as ordinary people."

"How amazing."

Yang Yuelian’s eyes bent into crescents, with stars shining within.

She was happy for her boyfriend’s breakthrough, imagining when she could achieve Grandmaster status herself.

But she wasn’t in a rush, taking one step at a time.

With the help of the Phoenix Wood core, her Phoenix Martial Arts improved rapidly.

Bai Venerate was also considering making her a Direct Disciple, teaching her a series of self-created Phoenix Fist techniques and even Divine Techniques.

Plus, [War Heart Clarity] with Meng Chuan as her goal, and rapidly feeding back experience into herself, Yang Yuelian believed she could attempt to breakthrough into a Grandmaster within two years.

A blue and white rainbow streaked across the sky.

Meng Chuan condensed water vapor from the clouds, accelerating with True Gang, almost matching the speed of Three Limits’ Five Elements Escape technique.

In the distance, the contours of Erlang Mountain in Linzhou were faintly visible.

As his girlfriend was about to part ways with him, he chatted non-stop, sharing cultivation experiences from his Three Limits phase, engaging in close affection, while constantly keeping vigilance of his surroundings—truly multitasking...

But unbeknownst to him, thousands of meters behind, someone was trailing them at a distance...

"You brat... What’s making you so happy!?"

Yang Huan, still worried, had set off from Lishan following them all the way, escorting them to this point.

Seeing Meng Chuan’s demeanor, it seemed like he had emerged from the shadow of Yong’an, his face a complex mix of emotions, yet also a touch of relief.

"Should have moved on, right?"

As the couple gradually landed, Yang Huan withdrew his attention, his mind spreading to cover Zhuji.

The intention of the Demon Path to destroy Meng Chuan had never ceased, vigilance was of the essence.

"What’s wrong? Is there something going on?"

On the ground, after one last embrace with Meng Chuan, Yang Yuelian noticed his sudden stiff expression and asked, confused.

"It’s nothing, you should head back. When you get to Shanghai with Bai Venerate, let me know you’re safe."

Yang Yuelian gave him a big kiss:

"Wait until you’re back in Yong’an and report your safety to me instead."

Meng Chuan nodded in agreement, watching his girlfriend enter the city, then turning with a strange expression to a certain cloud.

Could it be that Yang had been following him all along...

His Spiritual Power, with the boost from Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, received robust feedback from his physique, dramatically increasing.

Just as Principal Yang slightly ’showed his face,’ he was captured accurately...

"Lad, stop looking around, head back to school!"

Yang Huan didn’t pretend any longer, stepping out from the cloud, transmitting the sound directly to his ears.

"... Coming."

...

Tap, tap, tap...

The two leisurely flew back to Lishan, landing, the soles of their shoes creating crisp sounds as they hit the newly paved cobblestone courtyard of the campus.

Walking side by side with Yang Huan, they attracted countless eyeballs from Lishan’s teachers and students. Within this vast campus, everyone greeted them respectfully.

"Principal Yang, True Inheritance Senior."

Some even greeted the young Grandmaster first. Even when encountering fellow Grandmasters, they would stop to cup their hands, addressing him as "True Inheritance Grandmaster."

This was his first time strolling so ’leisurely’ on campus since breaking through, after Yong’an’s ordeal.

Naturally, it attracted attention.

It happened to be the third hour of Shen time, with the westward setting sun partially covered by thin clouds, casting a slanted light over the shoulder, bathing the face in golden glow.

From front to back, left to right, greetings to the "Grandmaster" were nearly continuous.

Regardless of their cultivation level, familiar or not, Meng Chuan politely nodded in return, acknowledging each one.

"Now that you’re a Grandmaster, stay composed. You still need to work on your restraint, kid."

Yang Huan, with a sideways glance, could clearly feel his slightly accelerated heartbeat.

Meng Chuan nodded, maintaining his composure.

He controlled the light floating sensation within his limbs, took a deep breath, and calmed his heart rate to below ten beats per breath.

Clearing out those indescribable feelings and thoughts lingering within his body.

The swiftly rising refreshing breeze abruptly ceased, with Meng Chuan personally sending away this "favorable wind."

He pondered:

"It’s just being a Grandmaster, no need to let it go to my head..."
