NOVEL WEB Chapter 96: Liu Ya: That person is right in front of you! (Please follow)
A few minutes later, at the Practical Training Base headquarters.
In the spacious reception hall, more than fifty terrifying powerhouses had gathered.
"Deputy brother, hurry up and call little brother over, we could barely wait, we wanted to hear all about teacher's new marriage!"
So many terrifying powerhouses stared eagerly at the deputy director.
The burly deputy director took out his communication device, dialed Xiao Ye, and told him about meeting up with his senior brothers and sisters.
After hanging up, the deputy director cracked a smile on his rugged face and said, "Little brother and the others would be over soon, everyone please wait a moment."
Upon hearing that, these fifty-odd powerhouses finally felt their restless hearts settle down a bit.
The purpose of their trip had already changed, not just to check on little brother, but also to learn about teacher's situation.
Someone snapped,
"Who's the asshole that bagged our teacher?"
"Teacher's Realm was always stuck at Great Venerable Ten-Star, unable to level up, and with no real backing."
"I just hope teacher wasn't forced!"
In Devil City, the Supreme Race was the real powerhouse, and Great Venerable Ten-Star was still a step behind.
The others frowned upon hearing that and indignantly said,
"That guy better not! I'll string him up and carve him!"
"Yeah, teacher has no backing, but we are teacher's backing!"
"Exactly, there's at least twenty of us in Great Venerable Realm, even if we butt heads with the Supreme Race, we wouldn't be pushovers."
Meanwhile, on the other side.
In the underground cultivation room.
Xiao Ye reluctantly left that warm embrace, "Sister Liu Ya, can't we just not go?"
Liu Ya playfully raised a slender finger and tapped Xiao Ye on the forehead,
"It's a get-together of brothers and sisters, you definitely need to go!"
"The disciples I, Liu Ya, train are always united, always friendly to each other."
"Alright then." Xiao Ye nodded.
At this moment, the Golden Dragon and the Two-tailed White Fox were at the key stage of their breakthrough, about to reach Grandmaster Nine-Star. Liu Ya needed to keep watch here and couldn't leave for long.
After that, Xiao Ye headed off to the Practical Training Base.
At the base gate, once Xiao Ye arrived, a guard was already waiting, then led Xiao Ye to the reception hall.
"Little brother's here now."
The deputy director called out, and everyone's attention focused over.
"Little brother, you here alone? Where's little sister?"
"Gotta say, you look pretty sharp."
Xiao Ye greeted them, "Hi, senior brothers and sisters, I'm Xiao Ye."
The Vajra Barbie grabbed Xiao Ye and sat him down, laughing, "I'm the senior sister, one of the earliest students teacher took in."
"I'm the senior brother, and your senior sister and I are a duo of Contractors," a tall, skinny guy said next to her.
Xiao Ye looked them over. *The contrast was wild.*
The senior brother was like six foot three and skinny as a stick, the Contractor senior sister was a total Vajra Barbie, all muscle and power.
The other senior brothers and sisters also briefly introduced themselves after that.
Xiao Ye responded to each of them, one by one.
Vajra Barbie senior sister felt Xiao Ye's wrist, then exclaimed, "Damn, eighteen years old, already at Grandmaster Realm Eight-Star!"
Everyone there was taken aback. Eighteen and already a Grandmaster Eight-Star? Teacher's current disciple was a beast!
"What Realm were you all at when you were eighteen? I think I'd only reached stage seven."
"Eh, I was an SS template, freshman year in college, only stage five."
"I was sss template, also just barely got into Grandmaster my freshman year!"
"Damn, little brother's already Grandmaster Eight-Star, makes us all look like chumps."
"Cough, cough, not just us, even if a Supreme were here, they couldn't compete."
Everyone there was at least at Venerable Realm, but their eyes when they looked at Xiao Ye had changed. *This little brother would absolutely be Supreme one day, maybe even higher!*
In their hearts, they'd already tagged little brother: peerless monster, off-the-charts genius, good-looking as hell.
Some of the senior sisters who already had Contractors even went bold,
"Hehe, if I'd met little brother back then, I'd definitely have bagged him."
"You call that bagging legit?"
"You know what I'm saying. Even I'm tempted now, senior sister!"
Xiao Ye's mouth twitched. *Seriously, was that necessary?*
The three deputy directors quickly interjected and got back on topic,
"Everyone, quiet down."
The room immediately went silent.
"Little brother, there's something really important we need you to confirm," one deputy director said with a gentle smile,
"Teacher, is she really getting married again and forming a new contract with someone else?"
Everyone looked at Xiao Ye with anticipation in their eyes.
Xiao Ye was surprised, "You all know already?"
"That's right, Sister Liu Ya really is getting married again!"
Hearing little brother say it himself, the place blew up, totally different than hearing it from the Vajra Venerable.
The Vajra Barbie senior sister grabbed the skinny senior brother by the throat, looking completely stunned.
The others buzzed with comments, but all their attention was still on Xiao Ye.
Of the bunch, the three deputy directors stayed the most coolheaded, and questioned Xiao Ye,
"Who is he? Do we know him?"
Xiao Ye saw all those senior brothers and sisters looking like they could kill, and *felt uneasy,* so he hesitated and answered vaguely,
"You do know him, but that guy..."
The senior brothers and sisters stared intensely, making Xiao Ye feel *awkward and tongue-tied.*
*What if they beat me up?*
*After all, he and Liu Ya were way too far apart in age, plus he was her disciple too.* The canonical source for this content: M|V|L2EMPYR.
"Ahem!" Xiao Ye dodged, "Go ask Sister Liu Ya yourselves, she'll tell you in person."
The deputy director frowned, "Is that person really that powerful? Little brother's scared to say?"
"Of the people we know, who's that influential?"
"The Vajra Venerable? Doesn't seem like it. Just bumped into him, and he looked all gloomy, not like some newlywed."
So, the fifty-some terrifying disciples discussed and decided they'd go meet the teacher themselves.
And so, with a giant crowd, they charged off after Xiao Ye.
The whole group headed for Villa District No. 3 by the lake.
The gate guard was shocked to see so many people and rushed to block them, but after Xiao Ye's introduction, felt relieved and let them all through.
In everyone's memory, teacher's villa was No. 10.
But Xiao Ye took them to Villa 001.
Xiao Ye had let Liu Ya know in advance, and Liu Ya changed outfits before coming out to greet them.
"Greetings, teacher!" "Teacher, long time no see!" "Teacher, hope you've been well!"
More than fifty powerhouses all lined up obediently and greeted Liu Ya with respect.
Liu Ya's stunning face wore a faint smile, "Mm, it's been years, but you all haven't changed a bit."
"There's so many of you making such a grand entrance, our villa can't really host everyone, so let's all go to a restaurant instead."
The deputy director waved his hand, and voiced the big question on everyone's mind,
"Teacher, the reason we're here is to ask, who is your new husband?"
"Did you marry him because you were forced?"
"Please, don't force yourself. We've got your back, we're here for you."
Liu Ya smiled gently and said, "I did it of my own will."
"As for my new husband, that person is right in front of you all."
