King Wuyang Palace of the Jin.
For the past few days, the air in the Inner Yard of the palace had been quite solemn. Ever since Zhou Bao banished Feng Xuan from the Wuyang Region, the yard had been shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
Jiang Xiao and Zhu Ba were both grim-faced.
This time they had really lost face. In the Cloud Crane Tavern, a scholar had cursed Zhou Bao undauntedly, but the urban management outside had not reacted at all. If Zhou Bao hadn’t been there, it would not have been such a big deal. But unfortunately for them, Zhou Bao had been sitting right there in the tavern and heard every word. He had also noticed the inaction of urban management. Although Zhou Bao had not said anything afterwards, his silence was precisely the reason the two were perturbed, very perturbed.
In fact, the two could not take full blame for this incident. In the beginning, they did try to stop the man from swearing and beat him up, almost killing him on the scene. However, the scholar had been a friend of Feng Xuan, and Feng Xuan had struck out and rescued him. In the Wuyang Region, a Level Six expert could certainly enjoy some fame, but if he went against the Wuyang Region, he would be courting death.
No matter how unbelievable a genius Feng Xuan was, he could be as arrogant and domineering as Zhou Bao was at his age. His cultivation was also not as high as Zhou Bao’s had been back then. With a cultivation at Level Six, his combat capability allowed him to fight against a Level Seven expert at most. How could he be a match for the urban management, who could flatten the whole region?
Nevertheless, some things simply could not be elaborated by words. No matter how impressive the urban management was, it could never prevail against a man who had gained the favor of the princess.
Zhou Qing had been protecting Feng Xuan, regardless of what he did. If Zhou Bao was the boss of the vast Wuyang Region, his wife and children were second in command.
Yan Yunfei never bothered to care for this kind of trivial matter, and Zhou Mu had been educated to give way to Zhou Qing since childhood. In this way, as long as he had the protection of Zhou Qing, nobody dared to discipline Feng Xuan, even if he incurred a catastrophe!
Gradually, people started getting used to it. Since Zhou Qing did not mind, others did not want to upset her for this kind of thing.
This was what had happened.
They had not upset Zhou Qing, but they upset Zhou Bao. And that was worse.
Once they upset Zhou Bao, they had to pay a price. Although Zhou Bao did not say anything that day, Zhu Ba had sent the urban managers who stood by and watched the scene that day away from the Wuyang Region and arranged for them to serve as guards in the Anyuan Store, which meant they were severely demoted. And Jiang Xiao also took action. He announced that all literacy subjects in the Imperial Examination in the Wuyang Region were canceled. The only subject being tested was miscellaneous. This now meant many people’s life-long studies had been in vain. Three days later, Jin made the same decision as well.
Now, every scholar in the Jin of the Central Mainland Region remembered this name: Lin Feng.
The man who cursed King Wuyang furiously in the Cloud Crane Tavern that day had been Lin Feng. In a rage, King Wuyang had canceled all the literacy examinations, cutting off the road for millions of scholars to become government officials and ruining their futures.
It was quite evident what kind of ending this Lin Feng would have.
Of course, Zhou Bao did not care about any of this at present. What concerned him most were two unhappy faces.
Yan Yunfei’s and Zhou Qing’s.

Yunfei, why are you so upset about this little girl. I’m just acting in her best interests. She may be too young to understand, but how could you be so naive as well!


Can you please try to get rid of the damn mindset that you are the world’s number one authority? She is your daughter, not your enemy. Why can’t you just talk some sense to her? Instead you took this unexpected measure and banished Feng Xuan, how can you expect her to bear it!


I’m just trying to solve this mess as quickly as I can. Anyway, that boy certainly approached our Dinosaur with his own agenda. Dinosaur is still young, and if we didn’t get him away, he would cause major trouble for her in the future!


Yes, now he can’t make any more trouble. But your daughter is so troubled that she has stopped eating!


So what? A Level Seven expert is able to refrain from eating grain forever. Never mind the fact that she has only starved herself for three days!
Zhou Bao said indifferently.
Fine. Stop showing your sullen face, I’ll go and see what I can do!


She is in the inside room. Now that you’re here, let’s see how you can make peace with her!
Yan Yunfei rolled her eyes.

Fine, let me see what I can do!
Zhou Bao pushed the inner door open and entered his daughter’s room. The setting in this room was highly exquisite and quite refreshing. Zhou Qing was sitting by a table with her back to the door, so Zhou Bao could not see her expression. But he heard that she was whimpering alone.

Enough, Dinosaur, there is nothing to cry about. I know you must have visited that boy as well. It’s he who failed to restrain himself and succumbed to temptation. You can’t blame it on me!


If it’s not on you, who else should I blame! Succumb to temptation? Humph, do you really think I don’t know that you would have killed him if he did not succumb!
Zhou Qing abruptly wheeled her head around and glared at Zhou Bao.

Phew! That’s my girl! You could detect this!
Facing the glare of his little girl, Zhou Bao did not feel a trace of fear. On the contrary, he smiled with curiosity.
I guess you did see that the boy harbored some ill intent, right?


Yes, I saw it!
Zhou Qing answered with a lower voice, her head drooped.

If that’s the case, then why are you behaving like this? Starving yourself and everything!


I’m just unhappy. And it’s your fault, you did this to me!
Zhou Qing swiftly got to her feet and yelled at Zhou Bao. She wanted to run towards him and punch him.

Yeah, I did this to you!
Zhou Bao nodded thoughtfully.
Just vent out your feelings now. Don’t you find me annoying? Well, you can regard everything in this room and this whole King Wuyang Palace as me and beat them up with all your strength. Then you will feel much better. If not, you’ll get sick!


You―

Hearing this, Zhou Qing did not know how to respond. Staring at Zhou Bao, she gritted her teeth, wishing she could give him a sound thrashing.

I would also want you to beat me up if that could reduce your anger. However, since I am your father, you are not allowed to beat me up unless you want to be hit by a thunderbolt. Another thing is your father is invincible. Even if you beat me, I won’t feel a thing. And that may, in turn, exhaust you. Thus, you’d better pretend that other articles are me and do what you like!
Zhou Bao shrugged his shoulders and walked out with a smile. No sooner had he stepped out of the room then he hear a loud bang behind him, and then, Zhou Qing’s entire room collapsed.

Hee hee, this little girl is a fast learner! After unleashing her fury, her mood will soon grow better!
Zhou Bao thought, leaving the Inner Yard of the King Wuyang Palace, beaming. As he took off, a series of explosive blasts came out behind him. It appeared that Zhou Qing was truly going to demolish the whole King Wuyang Palace.

Father, Dinosaur—


It’s nothing, she’s just demonstrating her talent as a grumpy dinosaur. When she’s done, she will be in a better mood. Let it be!
Zhou Bao shot a look at Zhou Mu and asked,
Eggie, you’re a big boy now, have you ever thought about going out to see the world?


Going out to see the world?
Zhou Mu was taken aback by this. But soon, his face began to shine with joy.
Father, are you asking me to leave the Wuyang Region?


Yes, leave the Wuyang Region and go experience the world. Although the Wuyang Region is a great place, it is merely a corner of the Central Mainland Region. It would be great if you’d like to travel around and see different things. Your cultivation has already reached the peak of Level Eight, and you’ve also got several Pure Yang Celestial Devices and a fairy weapon. You’re okay to travel anywhere!


Well, I’ve been dying to do that for a long time, but mother…


I’ll talk to your mother!


Great. But, what about Dinosaur?

Zhou Bao’s eyes widened, and he snarled,
Do you really think that I’m just asking you to go out and see the world? What I mean is for you to take Dinosaur out and drive away her concerns. She just vented out her anger and is probably in a good mood now. If you take her out and let her meet more people and experience more interesting things, maybe she will return a happy girl!


I knew it! You couldn’t be so nice to me and simply let me out to experience the world!
Zhou Mu mumbled, but still he could not hide the excitement in his eyes. He had been longing to leave the Wuyang Region and gain more experience for years. However, considering his age and Yan Yunfei’s refusals, he had had to stay here until today. But now that Zhou Bao had given his permission, and Yan Yunfei was going to be busy since she recently found out she was carrying her third child, Zhou Mu would have no difficulty in realizing this dream. He was as free as a fish in the sea or a bird in the sky. The moment Zhou Bao left, he hurried toward the Inner Yard to deliver the great news to Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing had just dumped out all her negative feelings, so when she heard the news, her lingering trace of annoyance rapidly dispersed. They left the tidying up of the whole King Wuyang Palace that she just vandalized to the help. …

Well, no one comes to the temple without a reason. Brother Ye, why do you hide in the dark, refusing to reveal yourself?

Zhou Bao headed into the depths of the mountains along a path on Jilei Mountain. Halfway through his journey, he suddenly came to a halt and laughed at the stone wall on his right.

It’s been years since we last met, but your strength has grown increasingly unfathomable. It seems that the effect of the Void Thunder Tribulation is much stronger than the Thunder Tribulation in the Heaven Realm World!
A sigh came out from the stone wall, and Ye Qingtian’s figure gradually emerged. Ye Qingtian looked at Zhou Bao, his eyes revealing a complex significance. When they first met, his cultivation had been much higher than Zhou Bao’s, and so was his combat capability. But today, though he had broken through the Genuine Immortal Realm and even entered the Venerable Realm by undergoing multiple Thunder Tribulations, the gap between Zhou Bao and him was getting wider and wider. He had not seen Zhou Bao for a long time, but he had heard of his combats. He knew that Zhou Bao had defeated the Eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven Hong Taihe single-handedly and broken into the Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain by himself and forced their Mountain Master to step down. Considering this kind of strength and strategy, he was left too far behind to catch up.

Brother Yu, you didn’t just come here today to butter me up, did you?


Of course not. I came to you today about the upcoming Fate Creator competition in the Heaven Realm World!


Fate Creator competition in the Heaven Realm World?
Zhou Bao’s eyes shone.
Well, Brother Yu, are you interested in the position of Fate Creator as well?


Of course, I’m interested, but I’m not qualified.


Then, who did you come here on behalf of?


The Fairy Pool Hunter!
