Chapter 645: Chapter 078: Becoming the Princess’s Tutor
Zhou Yan’s actions before, if the Divine Dynasty Princess really set her mind to investigate, with her ability and power, and the assistance of the right Magic Treasures to perform a ti reversal, it would not be difficult to find out.
Now that he had defined his personality as ’arrogant’ and ’domineering’, Zhou Yan naturally would ’confess’ to certain things, which in turn would make him more credible, because most of what he said was the truth.
Even Zhou Yan’s purpose was presented without consideration, showing his ’sincerity’.
As expected, upon hearing this, the Divine Dynasty Princess slightly shocked, then a beautiful smile appeared on her pretty face.
She smiled confidently, her lips slightly parted, and said, "Master is so open-hearted, if Yilan holds any more suspicion, it would be petty of . Before, although Yilan was astonished by Master’s abilities, soone with such a prodigious talent who is not known throughout the world is unheard of.
Who would have thought, Master is actually from the reclusive Desolate Land of Silent Annihilation Ancestor Star, no wonder then."
"One must assu, the reason for erging from seclusion for training this ti, is to confront the premonitions and heart knots of the five decays of heaven and man, preparing to cross into the Life Tribulation Realm, correct?"
Divine Dynasty Princess, Yilan, asked softly, her voice already filled with respect.
"Indeed, the red dust is boundless, white bones scattered everywhere. My master said, at the end of cultivation, there is no end, bones accumulate and turn to ash; that is Heavenly Tribulation, also known as ’Life Tribulation’, which is the true beginning of cultivation. Beneath Life Tribulation, there are no geniuses, below Saints, all are re ants... Cultivation is always cruel, what counts is a little Artifact Refining Ability? To go through the Red Dust, to pursue one’s true heart, and to beco a genius of the Xuan Level in the Tribulation Realm, that is the pursuit of this training."
Zhou Yan sighed.
There was truth, and there were lies.
There are so things that, with his character, once he hoodwinks soone, the effect is guaranteed to be extraordinary.
Sure enough, he paid close attention and saw the Divine Dynasty Princess standing still, looking dazed and shocked.
This ti, the Divine Dynasty Princess was truly completely astonished.
"At the end of cultivation, there is no end, bones accumulate and turn to ash!"
The Divine Dynasty Princess murmured to herself, what kind of towering figure could utter such heart-shuddering words!
She seed to see the breaking of heaven and earth, the corruption of the universe, the destruction of the Ten Thousand Realms, and other catastrophic Anomalies; she saw the sentence shimring within the endless Tao Rules’ divine rainbows, glittering with light.
"Sigh—"
After a long while, the Divine Dynasty Princess sighed a breath of turbid air, her gaze becoming extrely clear.
In her gaze, there was a trace of solemnity, but it was filled with even more intense reverence and awe.
"I see, from this sentence, the birth and death of the universe, the origin of Chaos... I finally understand why Master was looking at Yilan as if watching a joke, it turns out I was truly mistaken, terribly mistaken. Master is already a world-shocking master, your Master must be an existence surpassing Saints, surely a Divine giant... Before, Yilan actually had a heart of probing and doubt, I was wrong, I sincerely apologize to Master here."
Yilan’s voice was incredibly sincere, embodying respect from the heart.
At the sa ti, she understood that it seed the Master in front of her was not arrogant and overbearing, but rather, naturally proud. This pride, like an instinct, was not instability, not impatience.
Because, such a person, truly has the right to be proud, truly has the right to be even more arrogant and domineering!
She even bowed deeply, letting go of her princessly deanor.
Her light skirt swayed, a graceful bow.
That endless charm, indescribable.
A sweet fragrance gently entered Zhou Yan’s breath, and in that mont, Zhou Yan felt his heart stir.
The Divine Dynasty Princess Leng Xiu, noble, enchanting, and yet holy, always gave one the urge to press her down, especially now as she behaved so endearingly... and that graceful bow, by Zhou Yan’s estimation, those two white soft mounds, seed barely graspable.
But Zhou Yan silently withdrew his gaze—although he did not hide that his gaze had lingered for a mont on that soft spot on the princess’s chest.
"Master."
Yilan was shyly indignant, and could not help but chide softly.
Zhou Yan seed to co back to his senses, heh-hehed a laugh, and said, "Princess Yilan, let
introduce myself first. My na is ’Wei Li Zhou Yan’, a descendant of the ancient Lee clan, inheritor of the ancient Zhou bloodline. As the Ancient Scripture says, ’from the Chaos cos eternity, a single Qi unfolds the mundane Zhou’, referring to my Zhou bloodline, it is also an ancient royal lineage."
Zhou Yan spoke using the knowledge within the Tai Chu Runes, with a unique ancient tone exclusive to the Heavenly Emperor Universe.
The language of Heavenly Emperor Universe was roughly similar to that of Sword Burial Ancestor Star, with so pronunciation differences. But with Zhou Yan’s ability, learning a similar language just required paying attention to the tone of speech, which presented no problem.
And as for tone, after undergoing the extrely complex and borderline insane variations of the Tai Chu Rune tones, the language of Heavenly Emperor Universe was really child’s play for Zhou Yan; he had only listened to a few people speak and had imdiately grasped it.
"Ah— I had no idea the Master’s background was so astonishing! No wonder, no wonder your Master’s insights are so shocking! If it were soone else, surely they would be unable to know such a background, but our Wansheng Divine Dynasty has information passed down from ancient tis, my father is even able to understand so ancient languages, therefore knowing so ancient royal bloodlines and other information. Yilan has always been very fond of ancient Tai Chu writings since childhood, I wonder how well-versed Master is in ancient Tai Chu writings?"
Yilan at this mont, like a little girl, looked at Zhou Yan full of anticipation, seemingly eagerly awaiting Zhou Yan’s positive response.
In her mind, since Zhou Yan was of ancient royal blood, he naturally could understand most of the ancient Tai Chu writings, or at least so of it, and now she could understand those ancient texts she previously couldn’t.
This ti, her father invited the Netherworld Goddess to study the Soul Power of Heavenly Soul Mountain, primarily to save the Heavenly Emperor Universe from its bleak destiny. However, Yilan also harbored the intention of inquiring about knowledge of the Ancient Tai Chu Scripture, thinking that it would be better if she could get so information without causing too much trouble for the Netherworld Goddess.
With these thoughts in mind, Yilan’s mood imdiately brightened.
Still, she wondered whether the master before her truly possessed the knowledge, and what to do if he did not. What if the Netherworld Goddess was also unwilling to answer? What should she do then?
Yilan felt a touch of unease in her heart.
She had always been calm and composed, but unexpectedly, after just a brief interaction with the person before her, she had already experienced several intense emotional fluctuations, leaving her feelings in disarray.
Could this person be the bane of her existence?
This sudden thought gave Yilan a peculiar sensation.
"The Ancient Tai Chu language? As a mber of the ancient royal bloodline, naturally, I wouldn’t not know a little bit—I should know most of it. In fact, I know just a bit more than others," Zhou Yan said with a sly grin, his words tinged with playful teasing.
At this point, he knew he had succeeded.
No matter what, the only fear was an opponent unresponsive to offers, but once the needs and obsessions of the opponent were understood, dealing with them beca much easier.
Zhou Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Really? You really know it? This is wonderful, absolutely wonderful..."
Yilan was overjoyed, nearly hopping with excitent.
However, after a mont, perhaps considering that she should behave more ladylike, her charming face flushed red as she strived to calm her excited emotions.
She sneaked a glance at Zhou Yan’s expression, her voice carrying a hint of inquiry, "Then... Master, Yilan wishes to hire you as Yilan’s ’ntor.’ Would that be possible? Since you plan to gain experience in the mortal world, anywhere would do the sa, so why not accompany Yilan? Whether Master wishes to go to the Ye Sha Ancestor Star or even to Heavenly Soul Mountain for Enlightennt, there would not be any issues. Yilan’s status can help Master avoid a lot of troubles."
"Although Master’s capabilities and strength an you wouldn’t fear these troubles, wouldn’t it be better to avoid them if possible?"
"Master, what do you think...?"
"Master, whatever your demands, Yilan, Yilan will definitely fulfill them to the best of her ability."
The Divine Dynasty Princess was sowhat impatient, as if fearing Zhou Yan would slip away, she swiftly laid out many conditions.
"Really?"
Zhou Yan gave the Divine Dynasty Princess a look, his expression ambiguous.
The Princess’s face turned a deep red, as if blood would seep out, her lips pursed, displaying great hesitation, her expression growing complicated.
It seed as if making this decision was exceedingly difficult.
But after a short while, as if having made a significant decision in her heart, she bit her lip, "Master, if you genuinely wish for Yilan to beco your Daoist couple, Yilan bears no aversion. However, convincing my royal father and mother could be exceedingly difficult—but Yilan will surely strive for it. It’s just that I will need ti to persuade them; I hope Master won’t be impatient..."
Yilan was actually quite satisfied with Zhou Yan’s charisma, capabilities, bloodline, and background, but due to her feminine reserve and the scarce interactions, there remained a distance between them.
However, Yilan recognized that unless she expressed her stance and gave hope to the ’Master,’ she might not be able to enlist his partnership.
What did he lack, being of a nobler birth than herself and with a grander heritage behind him? Why depend on her?
With his capabilities, lacking Heavenly Crystals for the ti being, he could exchange a set of Soul Armor for a considerable amount at any mont. With abundant Heavenly Crystals, promising others access to Heavenly Soul Mountain—what difficulty would there be?
Furthermore, Heavenly Soul Mountain had not yet fallen to the Wansheng Divine Dynasty and did not belong to the Dynasty’s influence—what grounds did she have to keep him?
With that in mind, out of necessity, Yilan chose to candidly reveal her innermost thoughts, hoping to secure the person before her, then carefully strategize afterward.
"Haha, with the Princess’s heartfelt devotion and given promise, Zhou Yan is already quite content; then this young master will sowhat reluctantly beco the lovely little princess’s ntor," Zhou Yan laughed heartily, appearing to agree quite cheerfully.
One eager, the other willing, it was indeed a perfect match.
"ntor."
Yilan showed a look of surprise and imdiately bowed deeply to Zhou Yan again.
This ti, it was a triple bow. Zhou Yan did not refuse but naturally accepted this grand gesture.
With the ’Princess’s ’ntor’ title in the Heavenly Emperor Universe, Zhou Yan could now virtually do as he pleased, which greatly facilitated the matters he needed to handle.
In the future, even if he encountered Mu Qingyan, even if she exposed his identity, he would still have room to maneuver!
