Chapter 36: The Sword Sect Genius Who Was Beaten and Cried, Jian Wushuang
“Jian Wushuang, a disciple of the Sword Sect? The one who ranks first in the Tempering Body Realm combat power on the Cangzhou Continent?”
Ying asked uncertainly.
“That’s right, this little brat. He challenged me at just twelve years old and was so arrogant! So, I pulled down his pants and spanked his white little butt in front of everyone,” Qin Bei said, his voice full of enthusiasm. “Father, you should have seen it! That kid was incredibly stubborn, gritting his teeth and refusing to make a sound.”
As he spoke, Qin Bei gestured animatedly, almost itching to reenact the whole scene.
Emperor Xia and Ying exchanged a glance, suddenly feeling that a chaotic little devil might be about to make his grand entrance.
“So, did nobody from the Sword Sect stop you?” Ying inquired once more.
Geniuses like Jian Wushuang usually have protectors, and their cultivation levels are not low.
“It was alright at first, but once I started spanking Jian Wushuang, the Sword Sect folks quickly showed up,” Qin Bei replied.
“Oh~ that’s good then! At least you didn’t humiliate the Sword Sect in the process,” Ying nodded in relief.
The Sword Sect is undoubtedly a major sect—even the royal family has to show them some respect. If Qin Bei really made one of their geniuses cry, it would be downright embarrassing.
“Fortunately, I’m not a pushover. Even with the Sword Sect trying to intervene, it didn’t matter. I grabbed Jian Wushuang and dashed straight to the palace. Outside the palace, there were imperial guards; even the Sword Sect people wouldn’t dare make a fuss,” Qin Bei said with a grin. “Look, from across the palace wall, that guy could do nothing but watch me spank Jian Wushuang’s butt, while the guards were there too. That kid was so embarrassed, he actually cried.”
As soon as Qin Bei finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room turned bizarre.
Everyone stared blankly at Qin Bei, who had transformed a serious matter into something utterly ridiculous.
If word of this gets out, won’t Jian Wushuang be laughed at endlessly in the future?
Emperor Xia felt a pang in his heart.
It seems that his earlier intuition was not wrong; a little chaotic devil might indeed be on the horizon.
“Now that you’ve come out of seclusion, go see your mother. I have matters to attend to,” Emperor Xia stated, choosing to ignore Qin Bei’s little escapade for now. The Foundation Building Secret Realm was the top priority.
“Father, I’m here to petition to enter the Foundation Building Secret Realm,” Qin Bei declared.
As soon as these words left his mouth, both Emperor Xia and Ying frowned.
“Father, the princess has already told me about the Foundation Building Secret Realm. Just in time, I want to enter it for training and also to find a few Nine-Turn Celestial Ganoderma to seek a breakthrough.”
“And Xiaoxuan is still in the Secret Realm; I would be worried sending someone else,” he added.
Qin Bei’s playful demeanor vanished, and he became unusually serious.
Emperor Xia and Ying exchanged glances.
“No, you don’t understand the gravity of this situation,” Emperor Xia firmly rejected the request.
“Father, since I’m aware that the Beast Taming Sect has spies, I can naturally guess this matter isn’t simple. If I can kill one Beast Ming, surely I can kill another.”
After emerging from seclusion and learning about this matter from Ji Zhuyue, Qin Bei had mostly pieced together the truth.
Contrary to Emperor Xia’s worries, Qin Bei not only felt safe but was also eagerly anticipating battling these foes.
Only real combat can make one stronger.
Even if this incident hadn’t happened, Qin Bei would still have sought challenges to push through his final limit.
Looking at the resolute Qin Bei, this time Emperor Xia did not outright oppose him.
He suddenly recognized that since Qin Bei had demonstrated his talent, his overly protective instincts had gone overboard—this wasn’t his usual character.
There are many incredibly talented individuals within the royal family, yet Emperor Xia seldom inquired into their affairs.
He thought it over and suspected it might be because Qin Bei was caught in the crossfire between two powerful factions, the Beast Taming Sect and the Holy Demon Dynasty.
“Alright! I consent to your request!”
Emperor Xia ultimately decided to let Qin Bei carve his own path; regardless of the outcome, it would be Qin Bei’s own fate on the line.
“Thank you, Father.”
“Now go prepare; I’ll have someone send you the Demon Suppression Tower avatar shortly,” Emperor Xia waved his hand.
“Yes!”
…
Quickly, the royal family’s decision spread throughout the cultivation world that Prince Bei would take the Demon Suppression Tower avatar into the Foundation Building Secret Realm to battle monsters.
In no time, everyone was baffled by Emperor Xia’s decision.
If someone like Qin Bei had emerged from their sect, even if they had ten Demon Suppression Tower avatars, they would never allow a genius like him to take any risks.
Back at the palace, Qin Bei immediately summoned Mu Zhaoxue and Ji Zhuyue to inform them of his plans to enter the Foundation Building Secret Realm.
Both were not surprised that Qin Bei would make this choice.
“You two just wait for me to return home,” Qin Bei said, sounding like a husband about to embark on a long journey.
No, this is…
“I want to go too!”
As soon as Qin Bei finished speaking, Ji Zhuyue chimed in.
“You too?”
Qin Bei looked at Ji Zhuyue in disbelief.
“I’m at the peak of the Qi Training Realm now. The most crucial thing is to build a foundation, and if I want to seize a good opportunity to do so, I must go into this Foundation Building Secret Realm,” Ji Zhuyue explained. “Don’t worry, I promise I won’t hold my husband back.”
Qin Bei smiled, “Alright, my lady, then you’ll come with me.”
After all, this is Ji Zhuyue, the Empress of Wu Nation—Qin Bei has no concerns about her hindering him.
He had often wondered why Ji Zhuyue remained at the peak of the Qi Training Realm.
Initially, he thought she wanted to continue playing the role of a maid.
But now it was clear that her true reason for not breaking through was to forge a strong Foundation Realm as a solid base for her future breakthrough to the Saint Realm.
The Wu Nation didn’t have a place like the Foundation Building Secret Realm.
Clearly, gaining access to Great Xia’s resources was one of the reasons Ji Zhuyue disguised herself as a maid to come over.
“Then I’ll wait for you here,” Mu Zhaoxue remarked flatly.
She wished to join but being in the Golden Core Realm now meant she couldn’t enter any secret realm.
“My lord, the people bringing the Demon Suppression Tower avatars have arrived,” the old housekeeper reported.
“Madam, let’s be off.”
Qin Bei raised his hand, gesturing for Ji Zhuyue to take his arm.
Ji Zhuyue flashed a beautiful smile, linking her arm with Qin Bei’s as they walked out of the room.
Standing behind, Mu Zhaoxue watched as the two departed, feeling quite envious.
