Chapter 234: Chapter 5: One Shoulder Warm, One Shoulder Cold

But everyone thanked the Mountain Master together, seeing that the matter has become a foregone conclusion.

Gao Qingyu’s face was as black as a pot bottom.

He said to Lv Jiao Mountain, "You go set the menu, don’t let Huang Yifan do it. Don’t expand the scope any further, just these people. I’ll go back and get money from your sister-in-law."

Lv Jiao Mountain replied, "Mountain Master, we can put it on credit."

"I can’t afford to lose face!"

Gao Qingyu shouted angrily, and seeing Zhao Shanhe smiling, wanting to join for drinks, he immediately stopped, saying, "Lord Zhao, I didn’t say I was inviting you for drinks."

Zhao Shanhe’s face went stiff.

Damn it!

So many people!

Can’t you save me some face?

Everyone persuaded, "It’s just an extra pair of chopsticks, Mountain Master, don’t be angry..."

Gao Qingyu remained adamant.

Zhao Shanhe, seeing this, angrily said, "I don’t care."

He flew off into the sky.

Only then did Gao Qingyu return home to apply for funds.

There was originally no money; his wife wasn’t sure if she’d approve it. If not, he’d have to borrow money, which was already frustrating enough. If Zhao Shanhe continued to eat and drink, Gao Qingyu thought he might get a heart attack from the stress.

...

The news about Fang Che being an undercover agent in Baiyun Martial Academy also reached Yin Shen Palace.

"Master, I’m going to the Guardian Hall to take a position."

This was Fang Che’s report.

"Sect Hierarch, something’s amiss. Yemo’s identity is still sensitive, and he’s now ordered to prepare to work in the Guardian Hall."

The information about the undercover situation in Baiyun Martial Academy was quite detailed.

How Fang Che achieved merit, how he was suppressed, discontentment from Southeast Headquarters, the pressure applied, suspected to report that the Shi Family is framing Yemo again...

Baiyun Martial Academy launched a massive protest, but still couldn’t change the decision.

Yemo is already going to work, it’s a fact.

Details were reported to Yin Shen Palace.

Moreover, the harm was declared: this is extremely detrimental to Yemo’s martial arts growth!

Yin Shen Palace instantly smashed the table!

"Damn it... Zhao Shanhe, I will never live under the same sky as you!"

Yin Shen Palace was furious: "You don’t do any serious work, you’re only targeting my disciple! Did I dig up your ancestral grave? You’re abusing the kindness I showed you!"

Furious and feeling heartbroken.

Heartbroken for Yemo.

Such a good child. Constantly suffering from such ridiculous injustice!

Yin Shen Palace was enraged.

Had it been earlier, he wouldn’t have been mad, he’d have actually been delighted.

Because placing Yemo as a seed into Baiyun Martial Academy was intended to infiltrate the Guardian Hall as an inside line in the future.

But now it can’t be done. This is my dear disciple, cherished like a precious gem!

His martial journey has just begun!

Only six months into school, now being forced to work! How is this any different from dropping out halfway?

This is clearly ruining my disciple’s bright future!

"Once the headquarters inspection team leaves, I’ll personally go to the Southeast, slaughter two cities, kill tens of thousands, to give Zhao Shanhe a taste of blood! To vent my disciple’s grievance!"

Yin Shen Palace’s eyes were blood-red, with a violent aura: "Damn it, do you really think I’m a sick cat just because the tiger is quiet?"

He smashed his study to pieces.

Then picked up the Communication Jade to message Fang Che.

"How is it? Suffering unfair treatment, right? Don’t worry, I’ll avenge you in the future."

Fang Che immediately replied, "Master, what are you saying? I’m not angry. On the contrary, I’m quite happy. Didn’t you place me in Baiyun Martial Academy to eventually go to the Guardian Hall? Now we’ve achieved this goal four and a half years early, that’s a good thing, Master."

"What could I do for you at Baiyun Martial Academy? Nothing at all. But going to the Guardian Hall is different. Rest assured, Master, I understand. Don’t worry about me, I’m really not upset about this, genuinely happy. Attending class every day is annoying... I’ll do my best in the Guardian Hall to become an official."

Fang Che’s reply made Yin Shen Palace sigh as he read.

His heart was filled with mixed emotions.

He could see that Fang Che’s words were genuine.

But precisely because of this, it made him feel even worse.

"This foolish child..."

Yin Shen Palace sighed repeatedly: "When you grow up, you’ll understand what you’ve missed today... sigh!"

Yin Shen Palace replied, "Inform me immediately when you reach the Guardian Hall."

Then threw the Communication Jade aside.

Furrowing his brows, pacing back and forth in the main hall, sighing continuously.

"Sect Hierarch, Lord Mei asked you to..."

"What is it? Get out!"

Yin Shen Palace exploded in anger, cursing violently.

...

Fang Che had already returned to Bibo City.

In these days, he enjoyed a joyous reunion with Fang Qianyi.

He didn’t dwell on anything.

He even bragged to his mother about his achievements in the ’Shi Family secret realm trial’, proudly declaring that his cultivation had surpassed his mother’s.

Fang Qianyi was both surprised and annoyed.

Beaten by her own son.

She decided to surpass him.

Mother and son started betting, laughing together.

Ye Meng watched Fang Che with a sense of envy.

Feeling surpassed.

Ye Meng’s cultivation also advanced quickly, reaching the Seventh Grade General Level.

But...

When she was undercover, she was already at General Level, while Fang Che was just a Samurai!

Yet he’s surpassed her?

Ye Meng was bewildered, is this what a genius is?

Although she couldn’t enter the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room like Fang Che or openly train daily, losing a lot of cultivation time.

But...could it be this fast?

Looks like she needs to work harder.

"Ye Meng!"

Sure enough, Fang Che’s questioning came right after: "What level are you at?"

"Seventh Grade Martial Arts..."

Ye Meng pouted.

"Only Seventh Grade Martial Arts. What’s your progress? If you don’t work hard, I’ll sell you..."

Ye Meng, angry, went into her room.

Fang Che shrugged, saying to Fang Qianyi, "This girl has been spoiled by you these days, look, how she’s lost her discipline now."

Fang Qianyi smiled with squinting eyes, "Ye Meng is so good, serving you wholeheartedly, gentle, and pretty. You don’t know how lucky you are..."

"This girl... I could scold her eight times a day," Fang Che said.

Fang Qianyi laughed loudly.

"Your cousin got beaten by your uncle again. It turned out he punished the wrong person, it was you causing trouble. Your cousin almost died of anger, kept calling you an ingrate, saying he couldn’t bribe you with food..."

"Too bad I didn’t see it myself for the satisfaction."

Fang Che clicked his tongue regretfully.

Fang Qianyi laughed heartily.

Originally, not long after Fang Che left, Fang Qingyun came home for the winter break, greeted by Fang Zhenghang’s dark face and prepared ropes.

Fang Qingyun didn’t know what was happening, got tied up and hung on a tree the moment he stepped in.

His father gave him a severe beating without a word.

Afterwards, he interrogated him and realized he was tricked by his cousin.

His face immediately twisted with anger.

He’s already an Innate Grandmaster, naturally wouldn’t care about a beating, but... being framed by his cousin, that he couldn’t tolerate.

He said to Fang Zhenghang, "My cousin is known as Fang school belle at the academy, surrounded by beauties, no time to cultivate..."

Fang Zhenghang didn’t care, "Your cousin can win a championship without cultivating. If you can win, I won’t hit you if you don’t cultivate."

Fang Qingyun shed tears.

If I could win a championship... wouldn’t I have joined the competition already? Why would I be back to get beaten?

Spent a depressing holiday at home, decided to return to cultivate early.

I want to enter the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room too...

Fang Che’s trip to the academy, Fang Qingyun first didn’t know, second was in the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room, didn’t see him.

In the evening, after the family dinner.

Fang Qianyi finally asked.

"How come you’ve stayed several days at home this time?"

"I wanted to surprise you if you didn’t ask."

Fang Che beamed, "The Guardian Hall offered spots for academy students to join, selecting ones with special performances and talents for an internship, with a formal position for good performance. I got selected this time. So, mom, your son is going to be an official."

Fang Qianyi was instantly delighted: "Really? Joining the Guardian Hall? You must do well!"

For small families of the eighth and ninth levels, the Guardian Hall is a highly unattainable functional department.

For such a small family to have a child work in the Guardian Hall, it’s very prestigious in the entire city.

So Fang Qianyi didn’t worry about anything else.

She was genuinely happy for her son and anxious at the same time.

After all, ’only those who perform well during the internship will get a formal position’, what if the performance isn’t good?

Thus, she urged her son repeatedly to perform well and seize this opportunity to truly work in the Guardian Hall!

That would be family glory!

Fang Che naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

On the fifth day.

Fang Che and Ye Meng set off for Baiyun State.

That day.

Snow began to fall heavily.

The two of them on a white horse and a black horse rode out of Bibo City amidst the swirling snow.

After just a few hundred strides, the snow covered the earth, turning back, they could no longer see the Fang Family’s gates.

But Fang Che knew, his mother and uncle were still watching from the gate.

Even though they couldn’t see him.

They were still looking in the direction he left.

Fang Che felt a bittersweet emotion rising within him, finally daring to express it.

He turned on horseback, gazing longingly in the direction of home.

This departure.

Truly not knowing when... or if he would return.

This departure, he would face the entire Wei Wo Zheng Sect’s family pursuit in the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan!

Countless life-and-death struggles, endless carnage.

These hands, who knows how much more blood they would stain.

Just as uncertain, whose sword would bear his blood.

Ye Meng quietly accompanied Fang Che, watching him turn, watching him gaze longingly.

Watching the bitter and tender emotions in his eyes.

She couldn’t help but feel bittersweet inside.

A rush of emotion surged within her.
