Chapter 65

"Everyone, please wait a moment."

At this moment, a voice suddenly echoed in the hall, "Zhao Qin's words are inappropriate and his behavior is despicable. He is immediately expelled from the Guoshi Banquet."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Qin's face instantly turned pale. He did not expect that the other party would expel him from the Guoshi Banquet.

He hurriedly stood up, looked towards the inner hall not far away, and was about to speak when an old man silently appeared before him, coldly saying, "Young Master Zhao Qin, please leave."

Zhao Qin looked at the inner hall, bowed respectfully, and said in a trembling voice, "Master Ci, I misspoke earlier. Please forgive me, Master Ci."

"Leave."

A calm voice came from the inner hall.

Zhao Qin's face was as pale as paper, but he did not dare to say anything more. He bowed respectfully and left, but as he was leaving, he glanced at Ye Tianming.

As Zhao Qin left, Fa Zhen and the others returned to their seats.

At this moment, two men slowly walked out from the inner hall.

The leading man was dressed in simple cloth, with eyes like bright stars, holding an ancient book in his hand, appearing refined and elegant, different from the ordinary.

Bai Ci.

The Master of Baiyi Pavilion!

The most powerful person among the young generation of the Guanxuan Universe, and almost the future appointed Chief Cabinet Minister, because as soon as the Young Master takes personal charge, he will definitely enter the cabinet and gradually take over it. This is the Young Master's personally cultivated confidant!

Standing beside Bai Ci was another young man with a distinguished demeanor, An Yan, the younger brother of An Qi from the An family.

An Yan smiled slightly when he saw Ye Tianming.

Ye Tianming also smiled.

At this moment, everyone sitting at the table stood up, facing Bai Ci. Although he did not come from a prominent family or sect, none of them dared to be arrogant, because behind him was the Young Master.

Bai Ci walked to the front of the group and bowed, "I have kept you waiting. Let me explain. Earlier, An Yan and I were receiving a delegation from the ancient civilization. Due to some matters, we did not reach an agreement, so it took some time."

Fa Zhen was somewhat curious, "Minister Ci, why did the ancient civilization come here this time?"

The others also looked at Bai Ci, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Bai Ci said calmly, "To curb Guanxuan."

Fa Zhen and the others fell silent.

Curb Guanxuan!

When the Guanxuan Universe was under the leadership of the Guanxuan Sword Master, it was at its peak. At that time, the Guanxuan Sword Master could have unified all the civilizations and eras in the universe at any time, but he did not do so, and no one knew why.

But now, those eras and civilizations do not want to submit to the Guanxuan Universe!

However, the Guanxuan Universe is at its peak, especially with the appearance of the Young Master of the Guanxuan Universe. This Young Master is ambitious, and all the civilizations and eras in the universe are closely watching him, wanting to know just how extraordinary he is!

Bai Ci suddenly said solemnly, "Everyone, please do your best at the Guanxuan Debate tomorrow."

Fa Zhen was somewhat surprised, "Bai Ci, you are not participating?"

Bai Ci shook his head, "No."

Fa Zhen was puzzled, "Why?"

An Yan, standing beside him, said, "Brother Ci has other important matters to handle, so this time it's up to us."

Fa Zhen smiled, "Then let's see the super geniuses from the ancient civilization."

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

They were the most outstanding young scholars of the Guanxuan Universe, well-versed and knowledgeable, and they were not afraid of anyone from the outside universe.

Seeing everyone laugh, Bai Ci also smiled slightly. He suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Tianming, "You are Ye Tianming?"

Ye Tianming nodded, saying nothing.

Bai Ci smiled slightly, "To have passed the Guanxuan Dao is quite remarkable."

Ye Tianming glanced at him, saying nothing.

Bai Ci smiled and nodded, saying nothing.

Because there was nothing to say between them.

They understood each other.

The problem with Ye Tianming, Bai Ci could not solve, nor would he solve it.

Ye Tianming understood this, so he did not say anything.

After a moment, Ye Tianming and An Yan came to the corridor outside, where the vast starry sky stretched out.

An Yan suddenly said, "I'm sorry."

Ye Tianming turned to look at An Yan, who said apologetically, "I couldn't help much with the Xiao family's matter."

In fact, he had been secretly helping, but as a member of the Baiyi Pavilion, he did not have real power and could not shake the Xiao family, let alone when a high-ranking official had already declared the matter closed.

Ye Tianming smiled, "It's not your fault."

An Yan looked up at the starry sky, saying softly, "Tianming, I really miss the days we spent reading in the Great Dao Bookshop."

Ye Tianming laughed. Back then, he and An Yan loved to spend time in the Great Dao Bookshop, which had a vast collection of books from the Milky Way. They enjoyed reading and debating, and their shared ideal was to change the Guanxuan Universe in the future.

An Yan continued, "After coming here, I realized that the world is much more difficult than we initially thought. To change the world, there is still a long, long way to go."

Ye Tianming turned to look at An Yan. He had to admit that compared to before, An Yan had matured a lot and seemed more world-weary.

And he himself probably was too.

Ye Tianming said softly, "An Yan, as you said, the world is indeed much more difficult than we thought. We were a bit overconfident back then. But if young people don't have a bit of recklessness, can they still be called young people?"

"Ha ha!"

An Yan laughed heartily.

After a moment, An Yan suddenly said, "The Wanzhou Competition is coming up. Your current realm..."

Ye Tianming said, "Dharma Phase."

An Yan shook his head, "Too low."

As he spoke, he took out a storage ring and handed it to Ye Tianming. Inside the ring were 50,000 spirit crystals.

An Yan smiled, "Sorry, I don't accept bribes, so I don't have much money to help you."

As he spoke, he took out a scroll and handed it to Ye Tianming, "This is the初级版宇宙观玄法 (初级版宇宙观玄法) issued by the Baiyi Pavilion. You can cultivate it; the effect is quite good."

Actually, the初级版宇宙观玄法 (初级版宇宙观玄法) was not allowed to be spread outside, but An Yan still gave it to Ye Tianming. To him, rules were less important than his brother.

Ye Tianming did not refuse, accepting the cultivation method and the storage ring. He could not refuse his brother's gesture, but he also took out his own cultivation method and handed it to An Yan, "You can take a look. If it suits you, you can try cultivating it."

An Yan took the cultivation method and was immediately shocked. He looked at Ye Tianming in disbelief, "Is this the cultivation method you told me you were going to create?"

He and Ye Tianming had grown up together, often playing together, so Ye Tianming had never hidden anything from him. He did not expect that Ye Tianming had already successfully created it and that it was quite powerful.

Ye Tianming nodded, "Yes."

An Yan's expression was complex, "My sister was wrong about you."

Ye Tianming smiled, "It's all in the past."

An Yan asked, "Not resentful?"

Ye Tianming shook his head, "Everyone has the right to pursue happiness."

An Yan sighed softly.

Ye Tianming said, "Let's find a place to have a few drinks and chat properly."

An Yan smiled, "I was just thinking the same thing."

At this moment, an old man suddenly walked over quickly. He bowed slightly to Ye Tianming, "Young Master Ye, my lady invites you to a gathering. Is it convenient for you now..."

Ye Tianming immediately shook his head, "Not convenient, I need to chat with my brother..."

An Yan laughed.

At this moment, Ye Tianming suddenly turned to the old man who was about to leave and asked, "Your lady is?"

The old man said, "Nanling Zhao."

Ye Tianming immediately grabbed the old man's arm, "Let's go, I'm available..."

An Yan: "..."

The old man was taken aback. He looked at An Yan, and Ye Tianming quickly said, "He's not important, let's go, we need to hurry..."

He pulled the old man and walked downstairs.

An Yan: "???"
