Chapter 449: Something Bad Happened

Chapter 449: Something Bad Happened

Hearing Su Zi's words, Ye Guan felt a twinge of heartache. He didn't say anything, but he leaned down and kissed Su Zi on the lips.

Su Zi trembled. Ye Guan kissed her for several minutes, and when he stopped, Su Zi's face was flushed as red as a tomato; her eyes gleamed seductively, and she had warmed up to a considerable degree.

Ye Guan embraced Su Zi and whispered, "I know you have feelings for me. I've known it for a long time; I've just been avoiding it. I'm sorry."

Su Zi lowered her head slightly and asked, "How about you? Do you... like me, too?"

Ye Guan kissed Su Zi's forehead and replied, "Yes, I do."

Tears fell down Su Zi's eyes as she smiled and hugged Ye Guan. The grievances in her heart seemed to vanish just then.

An evil flame erupted in Ye Guan's heart the moment Su Zi's soft figure collided with him, but he suppressed it forcefully.

Ye Guan whispered, "Su Zi, I want to tell you more about myself."

Su Zi shook her head. "No need."

Ye Guan continued, "Actually, I'm the King of the Guanxuan Universe, and my family—"

"Take me..." Su Zi said in a trembling voice, interrupting Ye Guan's words.

Boom!

An explosion seemed to echo in Ye Guan's head, and his mind went blank.

...

The next day, Ye Guan opened his eyes slowly as sunlight pervaded the room. The moment his blurry vision cleared up, he saw a beautiful face before him; Su Zi was next to him and was clothed.

Su Zi's mouth curled up into a smile. "You're awake?"

Ye Guan nodded before leaning in casually to hug Su Zi.

Su Zi's expression changed, and she hurriedly said, "I made breakfast. It's yours, so stand up and eat."

Ye Guan shook his head. "I still want—"

Su Zi shook her head rapidly, interrupting Ye Guan, "I'm..."

Ye Guan was confused upon seeing Su Zi trailing off mid-sentence. Su Zi rolled her eyes at Ye Guan before leaning toward him and whispering in a trembling voice, "I'm in pain..."

Ye Guan froze before looking down at the bedsheets, and he instantly understood what she was talking about upon seeing the bloodstain. Su Zi's face flushed red upon seeing Ye Guan's gaze.

Ye Guan sat up and kissed her forehead. "Let's eat!"

Then, Ye Guan got down the bed and pulled Su Zi to the dining table.

Indeed, Su Zi had prepared breakfast for him to eat, and Ye Guan ate with relish.

Su Zi stared at Ye Guan with an affectionate gaze, but her expression sank upon recalling something.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan was hungry, so he made quick work of the meal.

Su Zi got up and said, "I'm leaving, then."

Ye Guan asked, "Are you heading to the office?"

Su Zi nodded.

Ye Guan said, "Let me go with you."

Su Zi shook her head and pointed out. "You have classes today."

Ye Guan froze. Su Zi was right; he truly had classes to teach today.

"You... can pretend... that last night didn't happen," Su Zi muttered.

Ye Guan was shocked.

Su Zi stared at Ye Guan with her hands clenched behind her as she smiled faintly and said, "You don't need to think about taking responsibility. It's normal for men and women to sleep with each other whenever they want here. I'm not going to bother you with taking responsibility.

"But let me know once you've decided to leave Blue Planet so that I can send you off as friends. A-anyway, I need to go to work now."

Su Zi turned around to leave, and her tears flooded out of her eyelids as soon as she faced the door. Regardless, Su Zi remained steadfast and started walking toward the door.

"Stop," Ye Guan said.

Su Zi came to a halt and asked, "W-what is it?"

Ye Guan walked up to Su Zi, and she hurriedly lowered her head to avoid Ye Guan's gaze.

Ye Guan said, "Look at me."

Su Zi shook her head.

Ye Guan sighed softly and asked, "Do you want to know more about me?"

Su Zi nodded unconsciously, but she quickly shook her head.

Ye Guan smiled. "Do you want to know or not?"

Su Zi remained silent with her head lowered.

Ye Guan lifted Su Zi's face by her chin and saw that her face was covered with tears.

Ye Guan wiped away her tears gently and said, "I know you're smart, and you've probably guessed something. Anyway, I want to tell you that you're mine now, and I won't let you change your mind."

Su Zi looked at Ye Guan without saying a word.

Ye Guan hugged her and pressed her against the door.

"I..." Su Zi trailed off, blushing furiously.

Ye Guan leaned down and kissed her forehead gently.

"Can we talk about it another day?"

Su Zi nodded slightly as even her ears became red out of embarrassment.

"Don't think about anything else. I'll handle everything from now on, okay?"

Su Zi nodded. "Mmhm."

Ye Guan took out a storage ring and handed it to Su Zi, saying, "Remember the cultivation method I gave you before? There are some spiritual cores inside of this ring. Go ahead and use them for your cultivation. The cultivation method I gave you is one of the best cultivation methods out there. Cultivate diligently, and you'll become extremely powerful in the future."

Su Zi nodded, "Okay."

Ye Guan smiled lightly and said, "I'm going to work now, then."

Su Zi hesitated briefly before tiptoeing and kissing Ye Guan on the lips. Su Zi then hurriedly pulled away and said, "I-I'm leaving."

The way Su Zi turned around immediately and ran away made her appear as though she was trying to escape from Ye Guan. Ye Guan shook his head at the sight and smiled. "This girl..."

Ye Guan tidied up the place before going to the Milky Way Academy. His job as a teacher was just a part-time job, but he took it seriously for some reason.

Ye Guan found Mu Wanyu and the others meditating inside the Sword Dao Department's hall. Ye Guan noticed that Mu Yun had reached the Ninth Stage, while Shuang Shuang's aura was showing signs of a breakthrough.

The three students stood up at Ye Guan's arrival. Shuang Shuang and Mu Yun bowed respectfully toward Ye Guan and said, "Greetings, Teacher."

Mu Wanyu merely smiled sweetly without bowing.

Ye Guan walked up to the three of them. He looked at Mu Yun and Shuang Shuang and smiled. "How's your progress?"

Shuang Shuang said in a low voice, "I've been trying to comprehend Sword Intent. I'm getting closer to it, but I can't seem to take that step."

Ye Guan assessed her before saying, "Go out and roam around."

Shuang Shuang looked at Ye Guan in confusion.

Ye Guan smiled and explained, "It's not a good idea to stay indoors all the time. You should go outside to get some fresh air and clear your mind; perhaps you'll profit from such an endeavor."

Shuang Shuang nodded belatedly and said, "Okay..."

Ye Guan then looked at Mu Yun and smiled. "What about you?"

Mu Yun hesitated before saying, "I'm struggling. It's more difficult than I thought."

"Indeed, it's quite difficult. No worries, and just take your time. Like Shuang Shuang, don't confine yourself here. I'll give you some time off, and I want you to go out and explore the world outside," Ye Guan replied.

Mu Yun nodded. "Alright."

"You two are dismissed," Ye Guan said, smiling.

Mu Yun and Shuang Shuang bowed respectfully before leaving.

Ye Guan turned to Mu Wanyu. Due to some unknown reason, Mu Wanyu couldn't cultivate the Universe Beholdment Skill, so she had been learning more about martial arts with Mu Yun and Shuang Shuang's help over these past few days.

Ye Guan examined Mu Wanyu before saying, "Follow me. I'll take you somewhere."

Despite asking her to follow him, Ye Guan did not wait for Mu Wanyu's reply before pulling her away. Mu Wanyu's cheeks blushed, and she had no complaints, allowing Ye Guan to pull her away.

Ye Guan brought Mu Wanyu to Cizhen's residence in Yunhai County.

Cizhen was in the middle of writing when they opened the door and entered.

Cizhen merely smiled at Ye Guan while Mu Wanyu cast a curious gaze upon Cizhen.

Ye Guan brought Mu Wanyu over to Cizhen and said, "Sister Zhen, Wanyu can't cultivate my Universe Beholdment Skill for some reason. I've been examining her, but I really have no idea what's wrong. Can you take a look?"

Cizhen glanced at Mu Wanyu before replying, "She has a special physique."

Ye Guan was a bit surprised. "A special physique?"

Cizhen nodded. "It's the Heaven-Extinguishing Physique."

Ye Guan was puzzled. "What is that?"

Cizhen smiled and explained, "As its name says, the heavens want to extinguish her and have decided to make sure that she will never be able to cultivate."

Ye Guan was stunned. "Really?"

"To put it simply, it means her vital acupoints are blocked, so spiritual energy can't enter here at all. It can be done forcefully, but she'll suffer unbearable pain. In other words, she can't cultivate."

Mu Wanyu's expression became gloomy.

Cizhen saw that and smiled. "Don't be sad. it's just a minor issue."

Mu Wanyu looked up at Cizhen; she hesitated briefly before asking, "Is there a solution?"

Cizhen nodded. "Of course."

Mu Wanyu breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to become a cultivator, and it was a desire that had sprouted inside of her upon learning about the world of cultivators.

"I guess we have to wait until I can access my cultivation base again. I can help her reform her physique by then," Ye Guan said.

"We don't need to wait that long," Cizhen said and turned to Mu Wanyu with a smile. "Come here."

Mu Wanyu walked up to Cizhen.

Cizhen pointed at Mu Wanyu's abdomen, and Mu Wanyu shivered violently. A few moments later, grotesque cracking noises echoed from her, followed by gushing sounds reminiscent of a dam being opened.

Cizhen retracted her finger, and Mu Wanyu immediately went limp.

Ye Guan reached out to support her.

Mu Wanyu felt utterly exhausted.

"You should let her rest for a while," Cizhen said.

Ye Guan nodded before carrying Mu Wanyu over to the bed and laying her down.

"Go sleep. You can start cultivating later," Ye Guan said.

Mu Wanyu stared at Ye Guan and nodded. "Mmhm."

Ye Guan covered Mu Wanyu with a blanket before walking over to Cizhen.

Mu Wanyu stared alternatingly between Ye Guan and Cizhen before sulking.

Ye Guan glanced at the paper on Cizhen's desk. It was the draft she was working on, and Cizhen hurriedly put everything away.

"You can't read it yet."

"Are you about to finish it?" Ye Guan asked.

Cizhen nodded. "Mmhm."

Ye Guan was about to speak, but his phone rang, interrupting him. He took it out of his pocket and froze upon seeing the caller ID. The caller was Xuanyuan Ling.

Ye Guan answered the call and heard a frantic voice.

"Ye—something bad happened!"

Ye Guan immediately frowned.
