Chapter 36 The Gloomy Ye Ruoi
At the same time, at the City Lord’s Mansion, Eastern Return Tavern, and Yin Luoxia’s courtyard.
Any martial artist in Snow Moon City could feel the immense pressure coming from Jiang Che’s residence and the divine light in the sky.
“I didn’t expect Jiang Che to have taken that final half-step already. Meanwhile, I’ve been wallowing in past grief…”
Inside Eastern Return Tavern, Bai Li Dongjun chuckled bitterly, taking a large gulp of alcohol to drown his sorrows.
At the City Lord’s Mansion.
Sikong Changfeng looked towards Jiang Che’s mansion with a complex expression.
Although he had already agreed to his daughter’s relationship with Jiang Che, he realized that his daughter might no longer be worthy of him…
An eighteen-year-old at Heavenly Realm?
What kind of concept is that?
As far as Sikong Changfeng knew, even the ghost immortal Mo Yi had only reached this realm at the age of twenty-four!
His daughter was a year younger than Jiang Che and was only at the Third Stage of Grandmaster level.
Compared to Jiang Che, it was like heaven and earth!
It was hard to imagine how terrifying Jiang Che’s future achievements would be if he didn’t die halfway.
Sigh…
Sikong Changfeng rubbed his brow, feeling a deep sense of frustration.
In Yin Luoxia’s small courtyard.
Feeling the terrifying pressure coming from Jiang Che’s residence, Yin Luoxia stood in a daze, staring blankly into the distance, unsure of what she was thinking.
…
In Ye Ruoyi’s small courtyard.
“Has Brother Jiang become this powerful already…?”
Ye Ruoyi, who had just recovered her health, was planning to visit Jiang Che tomorrow, but she unexpectedly received news tonight that Jiang Che had already broken through to Heavenly Realm.
Unconsciously, Jiang Che had grown to a height similar to her master, someone she could only look up to.
“Ye Ruoyi, what are you thinking about…”
“Such a gifted person like Brother Jiang is someone you can never hope to pursue.”
Ye Ruoyi chuckled bitterly and, with a touch of melancholy, turned back to her room.
Although she had only met Jiang Che once, his gentleness and the ambiguous moment when he treated her were still vivid in her mind.
The life-saving grace was greater than heaven, and Jiang Che was the first man to touch her body, leaving her with feelings that were hard to forget.
At one point, Ye Ruoyi had thought about getting close to Jiang Che and offering herself to him.
But now, upon hearing of his breakthrough, she felt a sense of sadness and loss.
She felt she was completely unworthy of someone like Jiang Che.
After all, she had once been frail, with no martial skills, and was just an ordinary person who couldn’t even lift a chicken.
…
At the residence, in the training room.
“I didn’t expect such an extra benefit…”
After the divine light faded and his realm stabilized, Jiang Che couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh.
When the divine light fell earlier, Jiang Che understood the meaning behind the Heavenly Dao’s actions.
After being bathed in the divine light, Jiang Che’s lifespan was extended by a full century!
The medicinal effect of the Small Restoration Pill was fully refined, and his cultivation had reached the Second Stage of Heavenly Realm!
Although the Small Restoration Pill was miraculous, as his strength grew, the true Qi it provided was no longer enough.
After all, the ten years of true Qi from the Small Restoration Pill couldn’t compare to the ten years of effort Jiang Che had put into cultivation.
Still, being able to break through directly from the Grandmaster Ninth Stage to the Second Stage of Heavenly Realm, Jiang Che was already very satisfied.
Moreover, after breaking through to Heavenly Realm, Jiang Che could already feel the changes in his body.
First, the Five Elements Spiritual Energy in his dantian had become much richer than before—completely incomparable.
If before the breakthrough, his Five Elements Spiritual Energy was like a stream, now it had turned into a small river!
The Five Elements Spiritual Energy flowed endlessly, constantly circulating.
Jiang Che could now easily defeat his former self with just one hand!
After reaching Heavenly Realm, his understanding of the natural world deepened even further.
The immortal arts and divine powers that had once drained all his energy to perform, now came effortlessly!
“No wonder people say that Heavenly Realm is the watershed of martial arts.”
“Only after stepping into Heavenly Realm can one truly take the first step toward great freedom…”
Muttering to himself, Jiang Che stood up and left the training room.
After his breakthrough, the immortal-like aura surrounding Jiang Che became even more ethereal and profound, returning to simplicity.
He stood there, as if one with nature itself.
As soon as he opened the door to the training room, a familiar figure appeared before him.
“Qianluo, what are you doing here?”
Jiang Che looked at the young girl in front of him in surprise, asking in confusion.
According to Jiang Che’s understanding, after his breakthrough, this girl should have gone back home!
Moreover, Sikong Qianluo, after breaking through Eighth Stages, needed to consolidate her cultivation.
“Brother Jiang, I came specially to offer you tea…”
Sikong Qianluo raised the tea cup in her hand as a gesture.
“Offer tea?”
“Why are you giving me tea in the middle of the night?”
Jiang Che looked at Sikong Qianluo with confusion, still unsure what was going on.
