BXBX NOVEL Chapter 476: Am I Ugly?
Chapter 476: Am I Ugly?
Ye Jun smiled wryly. He felt helpless when it came to Ye Nanqing.
Ye Nanqing had always been a terrifying, monstrous talent, but unlike Ye Nanfeng, she was low-key and rarely interacted with outsiders. She was focused solely on cultivation.
Furthermore, she showed no courtesy to anyone aside from her mother.
Her mother was also the reason she decided to step forward and marry Ye Guan. If it hadn\'t been for her mother, Ye Jun wouldn\'t have been able to make her move at all.
Fortunately, she definitely wouldn\'t be at a disadvantage once she married Ye Guan.
...
Ye Guan walked up to Ao Qianqian in the world inside the tiny pagoda. Ao Qianqian had made a breakthrough to become a Great Time Sovereign. Her aura was still surging as well, and the aura of her bloodline had become significantly stronger.
So this is the power of the Ancestral Dragon\'s inheritance... Ye Guan Guan smiled, knowing that Ao Qianqian would emerge as a Great Destiny Sovereign from the tiny pagoda.
This was all thanks to the plain-skirt lady. Ye Guan had to admit that his plain-skirt aunt was truly generous.
Ye Guan called out, "Master Pagoda?”
"What?" Little Pagoda sked.
Ye Guan asked, "Do you know anything about my third bloodline?"
Little Pagoda replied, "Nope."
Ye Guan frowned. "Really?"
After a moment of silence, Little Pagoda replied, "It\'s a really unique bloodline, and it\'s going to be a bit more challenging to awaken it compared to your Mad Demon Bloodline."
Ye Guan questioned, "How strong is it?"
Little Pagoda asserted, "It\'s extremely strong."
Ye Guan nodded. "I see."
"Awaken that bloodline, and you\'ll become extremely formidable."
Ye Guan chuckled and pointed. "There must be a catch, right?"
Little Pagoda answered, "Of course."
Ye Guan pondered, "What if I activated all three bloodlines simultaneously?"
"Then it\'d depend on whether you\'re strong enough to subdue them."
Ye Guan became more and more curious about his third bloodline. However, he didn\'t ask more questions and left the world inside the tiny pagoda. Ye Guan found Ye Nanqing when he reappeared in the room.
Ye Nanqing saw Ye Guan, but she didn\'t ask any questions.
Ye Guan looked outside and remarked, "Lady Nanqing, do you want to rest?"
"Rest?" Ye Nanqing asked in surprise.
Ye Guan nodded.
Ye Nanqing was quiet.
Ye Guan smiled at that and said, "I\'ll go ahead and rest, then!"
Then, Ye Guan pointed at the nearby bed and asked, "You don\'t mind, do you?"
Ye Nanqing shook her head. Cultivators could survive without sleep, and it had been years since Ye Nanqing slept.
Ye Guan walked up to the bed and lay down, closing his eyes slowly.
Ye Guan had developed the habit of sleeping every time since his sojourn in Blue Planet. Ye Guan no longer favored the fast-paced lifestyle of cultivators. He believed that life was full of routines, and Ye Guan no longer wanted to cultivate all the time.
Ye Guan immediately fell asleep, astonishing Ye Nanqing.
Ye Nanqing checked and discovered that Ye Guan had truly fallen asleep.
Eventually, Ye Nanqing turned around and sat on a nearby chair. She closed her eyes and started cultivating. If Ye Guan were awake, he would be astonished, as Ye Nanqing was absorbing spiritual energy from other spacetime dimensions. As far as Ye Guan knew, only a Spirit Progenitor like Little White could do such a thing.
The night passed, and Ye Guan opened his eyes slowly upon getting hit by the first rays of sunlight. He yawned and stretched lazily before casting his gaze upon Ye Nanqing not too far away from him in a chair.
Ye Nanqing had to have finished cultivating not too long ago, as she was staring at Ye Guan. Ye Guan stood up and ambled over to the nearby table, where he produced two bowls before taking out two packets of instant noodles that he had purchased from Blue Planet.
Ye Guan cooked the noodles and turned to Ye Nanqing.
"Lady Nanqing, do you want some?” Ye Guan offered with a smile.
Ye Nanqing shook her head instinctively.
However, Ye Guan urged, "Just give it a shot; it\'s surprisingly tasty."
Ye Nanqing remained reluctant.
Seeing that, Ye Guan simply handed her a bowl of noodles and said, "Just a taste."
Ye Nanqing glanced at Ye Guan and gave in. She accepted the chopsticks and took a bite of the noodles. The umami and flavors of the noodles instantly pervaded her mouth, stupefying her.
Ye Guan asked, "How is it?"
Ye Nanqing nodded. "Not bad!"
Then, Ye Nanqing turned to Ye Guan with curious eyes and asked, "What kind of noodles are these? It\'s pretty tasty!"
Ye Guan chuckled. "Instant noodles—I made it myself!"
Ye Nanqing gazed at Ye Guan without uttering a word. Ye Guan smiled and started eating, but the smile on his face faded away. If only Sister Zhen were here...
Ye Guan shook his head and made quick work of the noodles.
Ye Nanqing had annihilated the noodles as well, and she inwardly admitted that she liked it.
Ye Guan put away the utensils and bowls before walking out of the room.
Ye Guan was astonished to see that the palace had been decorated with festive decorations featuring red banners and red lights; they were all necessary for a wedding\'s jubilant atmosphere.
Ye Nanqing walked up to Ye Guan from behind.
Ye Guan remarked, "So it\'ll happen the day after tomorrow..."
Ye Nanqing nodded.
Ye Guan turned to look at Ye Nanqing and saw that she was as calm as a placid lake.
Ye Guan pondered briefly over something before saying, "Lady Nanqing, rest assured. I will definitely keep my word. This marriage is just for convenience\'s sake."
"Am I ugly?" Ye Nanqing asked.
Ye Guan was taken aback.
"Are you that afraid of becoming my husband?" Ye Nanqing asked.
Ye Guan was bewildered. What is she even thinking?
Ye Nanqing\'s gaze settled on Ye Guan, seemingly waiting for his response.
"I thought you disliked arranged marriages?” Ye Guan asked back.
Ye Nanqing nodded. "Yes, I dislike them. However, you\'ve emphasized multiple times that our marriage is just for convenience\'s sake. Why is that? Is it because I\'m ugly?"
Ye Guan stared deeply at Ye Nanqing. "How about we turn it into the real deal?"
Ye Nanqing shook her head. "No way."
Ye Guan rolled his eyes, utterly flabbergasted. A woman\'s mind was indeed too intricate to unravel. Ye Nanqing could decline without any explanation, while he had to explain his side.
A fleeting smile tugged at Ye Nanqing\'s lips upon seeing Ye Guan\'s flabbergasted face.
Just then, Ye Nanqing looked up and frowned. Ye Guan grabbed Ye Nanqing\'s hand and pulled her away.
A spear descended from the skies and landed on where Ye Guan and Ye Nanqing once stood.
Boom!
Dozens of powerful auras instantly came to life within the imperial palace; every single aura belonged to a Great Destiny Sovereign, and they were all members of the Eternal Night Army.
Ye Guan looked up and saw a young man in white overhead. The young man was holding a spear with a light smile. He was the same young man in white that Ye Guan had encountered back at Ye Shurou’s residence.
Ye Nanqing glanced quietly at the two Eternal Night Army troops on her right.
The young man in white grinned and challenged. "A duel, right? Come here, then!"
Swoosh!
Ye Guan held Ye Nanqing\'s waist and transformed into a streak of sword light that shot to the sky. The two Eternal Night Army troops on Ye Nanqing\'s right rushed toward Ye Guan and Ye Nanqing.
The abrupt turn of events startled the nearby Eternal Night Army troops. They were about to rush forward, but it was too late. The two Eternal Night Army troops had already reached Ye Guan and Ye Nanqing with their weapons in hand.
Ye Guan pulled Ye Nanqing behind him and slashed out, unleashing three Heavenrends with an ample amount of stacks each!
Boom!
The two Eternal Night Army troops were blasted by at least a few kilometers away!
Ye Guan didn\'t rush toward the young man in white. He held Ye Nanqing\'s waist with a wary expression.
Had the enemy breached the imperial palace?
Ye Guan frowned deeply.
Just then, a middle-aged man materialized next to Ye Guan. He was none other than Ye Jun, and he was accompanied by six mysterious figures clad in white robes.
Ye Jun\'s expression mirrored the gravity of the situation.
The Time Reversers actually dared to make a move in the Eternal Night Empire\'s Imperial Palace. Ye Guan stared at the young man in white, and the latter was staring at Ye Guan as well.
"How did you know that our men were around you?" asked the young man in white.
Ye Guan calmly replied, "It\'s because I knew that trash like you wouldn\'t dare to face me one-on-one. The fact that you offered to fight me in a duel means that you\'re trying to lure me into fighting you, allowing your men to attack Lady Nanqing.
Ye Nanqing glanced at Ye Guan but remained silent.
The young man in white sneered, "Do you really think you\'re that strong?"
Ye Guan stared at the young man in white. "Let’s have a duel, then. No asking for help. Do you dare?"
The young man in white\'s eyes narrowed into slits. He dared not fight Ye Guan in a duel, as the latter had just blasted away two Great Destiny Sovereigns with a single move!
Moreover, Ye Guan didn\'t even go all out.
A duel against Ye Guan without asking for any help? The young man in white had no confidence at all, and why would he be impulsive at this juncture?
The young man in white sneered, "Ye Guan, if you\'re trying to win the Eternal Night Empire to your side, I can only say that you—"
Swoosh!
Ye Guan transformed into a sword light and took to the sky, interrupting the young man in white.
The young man in white’s pupils constricted, and he thrust his spear forward.
Bang!
A deafening noise echoed as the spear shattered, and the young man in white was blasted a few kilometers away. The collision just now was so strong that a massive spacetime rift that led to a void was torn open.
The young man in white stared in shock at Ye Guan in the distance. "You..."
Ye Guan cast a contemptuous gaze at the young man in white. "Did the Past Clan send someone like you because they\'re short on personnel?"
The young man in white was furious. He was about to speak when a terrifying aura suddenly surged from the depths of the starry sky. The aura was so terrifying that it felt as if the entire starry sky was about to collapse.
A suffocating pressure descended upon everyone as their faces turned grim.
