Chapter 408: Establish Order And Govern The Vast Expanse

Ye Guan smiled faintly and said, "I\'m taking my leave now, Senior."

The man nodded. "Farewell."

Ye Guan turned around to leave, but he recalled something and asked, "Is the True God on the Blue Planet?"

"Yes," the man said, "She\'s in Yanjing."

Ye Guan went silent.

The man explained, "She\'s not interested in you. She\'s busy with her books. She\'ll leave once she\'s finished with her books."

A puzzled crease formed on Ye Guan\'s forehead. "Leave?"

The man nodded solemnly and replied, "Yes, she will leave entirely."

Ye Guan mulled over his words.

"You should go; you don\'t have much time left," the man urged.

The man pivoted on his heel and walked away.

After a while, Ye Guan decided to leave with Xiao Xiao as well.

The man stared at Ye Guan\'s departing figure in thoughtful silence. Eventually, he muttered to himself, "The Universe Tribulation is coming, and those who can challenge the flow of time will soon make a move. If you can quell these forces and establish order in this vast expanse while treating everyone fairly, I will assist you."

The man looked up with a gaze filled with helplessness. Those few were invincible, but they had already taken that step and had transcended gods to become gods themselves. Whatever was left of their humanity was reserved for only a select few people. It wasn\'t feasible to entrust the universe order to them, as they could take countless lives with just a single thought from their end.

The man had been waiting for someone with a decent character to become invincible, just like them. Ye Guan\'s journey here would make it clear whether he could retain his humanity or not as he walked up the path of invincibility.

The Great Daoist Brush Master wanted Ye Guan to preserve his humanity, but that woman insisted on letting him grow by himself. She wanted Ye Guan\'s trajectory in life to depend on Ye Guan himself. This was also the reason she had suppressed the Great Daoist Brush Master.

Thankfully, Ye Guan\'s humanity was still intact. Otherwise, she wouldn\'t even have allowed him to come to the Milky Way.

Upon entering the hall, the man turned in a particular direction. That woman with a habit of writing books had somehow retained half of her humanity; she was of great character as well. It was just a shame that she...

The Great Daoist Brush Master sighed once more and then ambled toward the hall.

...

After descending the mountain, Ye Guan and Xiao Xiao returned to the city.

Along the way, Xiao Xiao asked, "Who was that?"

Ye Guan smiled and explained, "Someone really incredible."

A thoughtful silence enveloped Xiao Xiao.

Ye Guan continued. "Get someone to send him some money every month."

Xiao Xiao nodded and said, "I will handle it."

Ye Guan nodded in acknowledgment.

Even though the Great Daoist Brush Master hadn\'t done anything bad toward him.

Ye Guan was still wary of him. After all, the fact that his plain-skirt aunt was suppressing him meant that he was most likely capable of doing just about anything he wished,

Ye Guan turned to gaze out of the window; his expression unconsciously grew solemn. The conversation with the Grand Daoist Brush Master had shed light on numerous things. The vast expanse was anything but simple. Even the Great Daoist Brush Master himself could only reverse the flow of time for a mere five hundred billion years. Just what secrets were hidden at the beginning of the universe?

Realizing that he was quite unfamiliar with the vast expanse, Ye Guan decided that he would ask his aunt questions once they met each other again.

Ye Guan chose not to return to the hotel. He asked Xiao Xiao to guide him around in picking out a gift box. The Nuwa Stone was exceptionally beautiful, but it had to be in a gift box for him to present it as a gift.

Soon, Xiao Xiao led him to the largest mall. The massive mall offered an array of commodities. Xiao Xiao led the way into a gift shop, and a woman in a short skirt approached them with a welcoming smile as they entered.

"Hello, may I assist you with anything?"

Ye Guan responded, "I need a gift box."

"What kind of gift box are you looking for, sir?" the woman asked.

"It\'s for a necklace," replied Ye Guan.

The woman grinned and gestured. "Sir, follow me."

The woman led Ye Guan to a shelf showcasing a variety of exquisite gift boxes. After a brief survey, Ye Guan\'s eyes settled on a heart-shaped crystal box. It was clear, sparkling, and was perfect for his necklace.

"This is the one," Ye Guan said.

The woman nodded and said, "Certainly, allow me to wrap it for you."

"Wait!" A sudden cry rang through the shop, and Ye Guan turned to find a young woman in her twenties.

The young woman had a slender figure, and her face was adorned with vibrant makeup. She exuded a certain charm that made her seem gentle, but her expression was anything but gentle as she glared at the saleswoman and said, "I want that box."

The saleswoman said, "Miss, this gentleman has claimed it first."

Undeterred, the woman locked eyes with Ye Guan and asked in a playful tone, "Can you give it to me?"

"No." Ye Guan shook his head. He turned to the saleswoman and said, "Wrap it up for me, please."

The saleswoman obliged and started wrapping up the necklace that Ye Guan had handed over to the saleswoman.

"I\'ll pay double," the young woman offered.

The saleswoman froze and started hesitating.

Ye Guan turned to the young woman with a confused frown.

The young woman cast a contemptuous gaze at Ye Guan and said, "Money rules!"

Before Ye Guan could respond, Xiao Xiao stepped forward. She whipped out her pistol and pressed it against the young woman\'s forehead.

"Can you repeat that? Money rules? Is that what you just said?" Xiao Xiao said.

A collective gasp filled the shop, and the saleswoman was terrified to see the gun.

Ye Guan was caught off guard by Xiao Xiao\'s decisiveness.

The young woman found herself unable to move out of fear upon suddenly getting held at gunpoint.

Xiao Xiao glanced at the saleswoman and said, "Hurry up!"

"A-all right!" The saleswoman snapped back to reality and hurried toward the counter to continue her work.

Xiao Xiao glared at the young woman and said sternly, "Having money does not make you superior, do you understand?"

The young woman was as white as a sheet of paper. She was on the verge of tears as she trembled at where she stood.

Soon, the saleswoman was done. She smiled nervously at Ye Guan. "Sir, here you go."

Ye Guan asked, "How much?"

The saleswoman stammered, "Y-y-you don\'t have to pay."

Ye Guan shook his head and chuckled. "I would be robbing you if I were to do that."

The saleswoman was about to speak but Xiao Xiao handed her a few notes.

The saleswoman hesitated briefly before eventually accepting the money.

Ye Guan exchanged glances with Xiao Xiao and said, "Let\'s go."

As they left, Xiao Xiao shot an icy glare at the young woman.

"Don\'t get me wrong," Xiao Xiao glared coldly at the young woman and said, "I saved your life just now, do you understand?"

Xiao Xiao turned around and left, leaving the dumbfounded young woman behind. The young woman slumped to the ground slowly, and she eventually pulled out her phone. She raised a trembling finger as she dialed a number.

"I-I-I\'m in Ginza Tower, s-someone bullied me...!" she cried out.

...

Ye Guan and Xiao Xiao exited the shopping mall.

Ye Guan glanced at Xiao Xiao and asked, "Did you think I was going to kill her?"

Xiao Xiao nodded. "I did not want to escalate the conflict."

"I guess you can be pretty kind," Ye Guan said with a chuckle.

Xiao Xiao hesitated and asked, "You\'re not mad, are you?"

Ye Guan shook his head, "I\'m not some homicidal maniac. I won\'t go around killing people for trivial matters. I reserve violence for situations where someone intends to kill me."

Xiao Xiao smiled, "Just what I thought."

As they were about to hop into the car, a convoy of vehicles suddenly rolled in from the distance and parked not far from them. In a flash, over twenty individuals alighted from the cars and formed a blockade in front of Ye Guan and Xiao Xiao.

Ye Guan frowned.

He turned to Xiao Xiao and saw her cold expression. They turned and found the same young woman from earlier. The young woman glared maliciously at the young woman and cursed, "You bitch! How dare you point a gun at me! Do you even know who I am? I\'m from the esteemed Wang Clan—"

Bang!

The young woman\'s tirade was interrupted by a bullet.

Xiao Xiao had whipped out her gun and decisively pulled the trigger.

The young woman took a bullet to the knee, and she wailed in agony as she collapsed to the ground. The men surrounding Ye Guan were left dumbfounded by Xiao Xiao\'s audacious act in broad daylight.

How ruthless!

Xiao Xiao whipped around and fired several shots.

The men were injured, but Xiao Xiao didn\'t kill them.

A symphony of miserable shrieks pervaded the air.

Xiao Xiao approached the young woman. She looked down at the latter with a sharp and piercing gaze.

"What did you call me just now?" Xiao Xiao asked coldly.

The young woman was terrified, and she stammered, "Y-y-you..."

Xiao Xiao stared into the young woman\'s face and demanded, "Apologize."

The woman hurriedly said, "I\'m sorry...!"

Xiao Xiao abruptly aimed her gun at the woman\'s forehead and squeezed the trigger.

Bang!

A grotesque noise echoed, and the woman crumpled to the ground.

Xiao Xiao holstered her gun and coldly muttered, "Your apology means nothing to me."

Xiao Xiao then turned around and returned to Ye Guan\'s side.

"Let\'s go. Someone will sort this mess out later," she said.

Ye Guan nodded, and they climbed into the car.

As the engine hummed to life, Ye Guan cast a glance at Xiao Xiao and asked, "You can kill as casually as that?"

Xiao Xiao calmly replied, "Under normal circumstances, no, but I can do it in certain situations."

Ye Guan\'s curiosity was piqued. "Is it because someone is backing you up?"

Xiao Xiao shot Ye Guan a quick glance and nodded. "I\'m from Yanjing. I\'m here for some training, and I\'ve got someone who will handle something like that for me. In addition, what happened earlier was clearly self-defense."

Acknowledging her explanation, Ye Guan nodded and said, "I get it."

It was truly great to have a backer.

Just then, Xiao Xiao asked, "How should I address you? Calling you Young Master or Senior feels a bit awkward, and I think it\'ll be too disrespectful of me to call you using your name."

"How about—" Ye Guan started.

"How about I call you Big Brother?" Xiao Xiao suggested, interrupting Ye Guan. "Is that okay for you?"

Ye Guan glanced at Xiao Xiao and said, "Whatever you like."

Xiao Xiao nodded and beamed with a smile. The simple change in address seemed to have bridged the gap of unfamiliarity between them. She praised herself for having a knack for handling interpersonal dynamics.

Xiao Xiao escorted Ye Guan back to the hotel and left.

She seemed eager to start cultivating.

Ye Guan sat cross-legged on the bed in his hotel room. He started absorbing the spiritual energy in the air. His trip to Yanjing had many uncertainties, so he thought it would be good to stockpile some spiritual energy.

Moreover, the hints from the Great Daoist Brush Master suggested that his plain-skirt aunt and his father might soon leave the Milky Way. Ye Guan decided to head to Yanjing immediately after Su Zi\'s birthday.

Ye Guan originally wanted to absorb spiritual energy throughout the night without sleeping, but he eventually succumbed to his fatigue and drifted off to sleep.

The following morning, Ye Guan woke up as the first rays of sunlight pervaded the room. His phone soon rang, and Su Zi\'s voice echoed from the other end of the line, "Are you awake?"

Ye Guan responded, "Yes."

Su Zi said, "I told Xiao Xue to fetch you."

"Got it," Ye Guan replied.

"I\'ll be waiting for you," Su Zi said.

"I\'ll definitely be there," Ye Guan replied before ending the call.

Ye Guan got ready and went to the lobby to find Xiao Xue waiting for him at the entrance.

"Mr. Ye," Xiao Xue greeted.

Ye Guan nodded lightly and said, "Let\'s go."

The two got into a car and started their journey to the Su Residence.

Looking at the gift box in his hand, a smile graced Ye Guan\'s lips.

...

It was Su Zi\'s birthday, so the entire Su Residence was bustling with energy. It was still early, but many distinguished people from all over Baiyun City had already gathered here.

Just then, a voice boomed from the entrance of the residence. "Miss Xuanyuan Ling of the Xuanyuan Clan from Yanjing has graced us with her presence!"

Everyone went silent and stared with bated breaths at the entrance of the Su Residence.
