Inside the Skyward Gate Tower, Bai Lie didn’t end up fighting Gu Changge, leaving many young prodigies disappointed as they really wanted to see with their own eyes how terrifying Gu Changge was. Nonetheless, Bai Lie’s refusal to fight was understandable in their eyes. If his fiancee, Yin Mei, didn’t urge him to step back, he might have actually thrown out a punch, but it wouldn’t make much difference. Since both of them were youthful prodigies, even a slight gap between their cultivation would be magnified to an infinite extent. Therefore, as someone who hadn’t broken through to the Intermediate Honored King Realm, Bai Lie, wouldn’t be Gu Changge’s opponent. Besides, which young prodigy wouldn’t currently tremble in the face of Gu Changge? 

 

That was not to downgrade Bai Lie’s power, which was still absolutely unquestionable as his Golden Force alone would send shivers down anyone’s spine.

 

When the banquet was about to end, he gave Gu Changge a cold glare before leaving the Skyward Gate Tower without uttering a word, as if there was still a long future ahead for him to settle this grudge with him. Meanwhile Gu Changge didn’t even bat an eye as Bai Lie left. He just continued to casually sipped his wine.

 

“Senior Gu, I’ll have to leave for now.” Then, Yin Mei suddenly got up and said to Gu Changge apologetically before chasing after Bai Lie outside the Skyward Gate Tower without waiting for his consent. The red dress flew past him and quickly disappeared at the palace gate.

 

This scene instantly stunned everyone else inside the palace, fearing Gu Changge’s anger. However, since Yin Mei was Bai Lie’s fiancee, it was reasonable for her to chase after him and explain what had happened.

 

“Senior Gu, Bai Lie still has the backing of the Ancient Royal Family. The last Tiger Emperor is said to have touched the threshold of that realm…” Ye Langtian added. He was worried that Gu Changge would be angered because of this, so he tried to urge him to calm down since the White Tiger Clan was still a powerful force to be reckoned with, and there was no need to overreact over such trivial matters.

 

“Brother Ye, you are worrying too much. This is Yin Mei’s private matter, so how can I meddle with it?” Gu Changge smiled without a care, as if he wasn’t angry about her sudden departure, which left many people wondering what he was thinking. In the end, they could only breathe a sigh inside their hearts without revealing their emotions on the outside.

 

[A person like him is truly terrifying, and it seems like the Nine-Lives Gifted Lady, Yin Mei, won’t be having a peaceful life in the Skyward Schloss from now on.]

 

After that, everyone began discussing the appearance of the heavenly treasure in the Skyward Schloss as they asked Gu Changge for advice, hoping that he would lend a helping hand to them when the time came. After Bai Lie left, the atmosphere became much more cordial, and naturally, the youthful prodigies didn’t hold anything back when they started to talk badly about Bai Lie in front of Gu Changge, such as calling him ignorant and idiotic. Listening to their words, Gu Changge revealed an intriguing smile, causing Ye Liuli, who was staring at him all this time, to suddenly shiver.

 

 

Meanwhile, after angrily leaving the Skyward Gate Tower, Ba Lie still couldn’t dispel the gloominess inside his heart. At this moment, he couldn’t wait to go and have a drink with his best friend, Ye Ling, so that he could relieve all the negative emotions swirling in him. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to vent all that anger and murderous intent. Gu Changge’s actions today had embarrassed and filled him with shame, so he couldn’t wait to quickly advance his cultivation and kill Gu Changge with his own hands! However, he knew that this was something he could only dream of. With his current abilities, it would be a challenge for him to defeat Gu Changge, let alone kill him.

 

[Gu Changge has now become the tyrant of Skyward Schloss, and everyone has to abide by his rules. Damn it! Even Yin Mei is also under his control, but since she is a disciple of Skyward Schloss, I can understand her hardship.]

 

Thinking about it, he calmed himself down. After all, Yin Mei had no other choice but to suffer under Gu Changge’s oppression.

 

Even so, he chose to stay in the Skyward Ancient City because the opportunity inside Skyward Schloss was still waiting for them, so naturally, he couldn’t leave at this point.

 

Then, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him. When he looked back, he was stunned to see a red figure walking toward him through the crowded street. The nine fluffy and snowy-white fox’s tails were held in her hands as they shimmered with light. She had a demonic yet seductive aura while her face looked a little apologetic. She was none other than the Nine-Lives Gifted Lady—Yin Mei.

 

Seeing his fiancee chasing after him from the Skyward Gate Tower, Bai Lie suddenly felt a sense of joy inside his heart as he was a little moved by her. After all, she would have to offend Gu Changge to do so!

 

[How is she going to survive in Skyward Schloss from now on?]

 

“Yin Mei…” He was getting a little excited as he couldn’t help but hold the hands of the beauty in front of him. Technically, this was the first time they officially met, and the meeting inside the Skyward Gate Tower didn’t count since they didn’t say a word to each other. Even so, his heart was still moved as he couldn’t believe that this gorgeous woman was his fiancee! Seeing how daring she was to resist Gu Changge’s oppression in the Skyward Gate Tower just now, Bai Lie realized that his imagination of her personality did not live up to reality.

 

At the moment, she stood three meters away from him while quietly backing down without allowing him to touch her.

 

“I’m sorry for what happened today. It’s my fault for not thinking things through. I didn’t expect that Senior Gu would suddenly do such a thing.” There was a hint of apology on her face.

 

Seeing that she was unwilling to let him touch her, he felt a little awkward, but since this was the first time they’ve met, it would be rude for him to be so abrupt.

 

With that, he quickly shook his head, “It’s fine. I can understand your hardship. After all, you are cultivating in Skyward Schloss, and Gu Changge, who has the entire place in his grasp, is said to be so strong that even the elders won’t dare to offend him. I’m already touched that you were willing to stand up for me just now…”

 

He was telling the truth, especially after seeing her coming out for him.

 

Listening to him, Yin Mei also seemed to be touched as she nodded. “I was afraid that you would misunderstand me, so it’s relieving to hear that from you. Because of the appearance of the heavenly treasure in Skyward Schloss, I can’t leave here yet, but after everything is done, I’ll break away from Skyward Schloss and return to my clan. By then, Senior Gu can no longer force me.”

 

“I see. I heard that the heavenly treasure is of great importance, so I’ll put aside my other things first. After I break through to the Intermediate Honored King Realm, I must exact my revenge on Gu Changge for the shame he brought to me today… and I’ll make him pay for oppressing you”! He uttered with a firm, puffed up chest while bobbing his head. He acted in such a manner because he felt strangely confident and proud in front of his fiancee. After all, it was known that all women like men with confidence. He had already thought of how to humiliate Gu Changge in the future so that he would regret his actions today.

 

“Yes, I believe you.” Listening to him, Yin Mei seemed to be somewhat moved as her face was full of belief.

 

“By the way, will you be in trouble in Skyward Schloss now that you’ve offended Gu Channge?” Since she got herself in trouble because of him, he would feel guilty if she was aggrieved during her time in Skyward Schloss. Thinking about it, he felt his hatred toward Gu Changge growing deeper.

 

However, she shook her head and answered, “I’m still a Direct Disciple of Skyward Schloss, so Senior Gu won’t trouble me that much.” She then looked toward the Skyward Gate Tower and added, “I should be going back now. It’ll be rude to the other youthful prodigies if I suddenly leave for too long.”

Bai Lie originally wanted her to stay for a while. As he opened his mouth, he suddenly placed a tiger-shaped jade talisman in front of her and said, “I’ll be in the Skyward Ancient City for the time being. If you want to find me, you can contact me using this jade talisman.”

 

Listening to him, she seemed to hesitate for a moment before accepting it.

 

When she turned around and began walking toward the Skyward Gate Tower, the expression of apology and affection had instantly faded away. Instead, it was now filled with mockery and ridicule. She was always dissatisfied with how her clan had suddenly arranged a marriage for her, so she wanted to cancel it no matter what. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come to Skyward Schloss to cultivate, never to return back to her clan. Even though he was a one in a thousand years young talent of the White Tiger Clan, she couldn’t care less about a fiance that she had never met before. Not only that, today, Bai Lie also managed to offend Gu Changge out of all people! There was nothing she could do to save him from his demise. However, she didn’t feel any sympathy for him at all because everything was going as she planned.

 

[Does he really think he can defeat him after breaking through to the Intermediate Honored King Realm?]

 

Thinking about what he said just now, she couldn’t help but want to laugh.

 

[What a naive man. If the two of them actually fight, I doubt that he can even withstand three moves from Gu Changge, let alone the terrifying ace he has up his sleeves that will send any young prodigy into despair.]

 

She suspected that the reason why Gu Changge didn’t kill Bai Lie immediately was probably because he had his eye on the source of Bai Lie’s Golden Force. After all, she had worked for him for many years, so she clearly understood what kind of cultivation source he needed.

 

As Yin Mei’s figure gradually disappeared from the street where cultivators were traveling, Bai Lie finally withdrew his eyes and revealed a smile. “I heard that Brother Ye Ling will also arrive at the Skyward Ancient City. I think I should go catch up with him first.”

 

Then, he planned to find his best friend, Ye Ling, so that they could discuss the appearance of the heavenly treasure in Skyward Schloss.

 

 

After the Thousands Banquet ended, all the youthful talents said their goodbyes and left the Skyward Gate Tower to their separate cultivation mansions. What happened here today quickly spread out and drew quite a lot of attention from different forces, but many people were disappointed that Gu Changge and the Young Master of the White Tiger Clan didn’t clash in the end. Bai Lie avoided the fight, and Gu Changge managed to show respect to his fellow disciple without lifting his fist.

 

However, on the other hand, one could also see how powerful and terrifying Gu Changge had become in Skyward Schloss as the other disciples were subservient to him. They dared not defy his orders. It had come to a point where he had the entire place in the palm of his hand.

 

Inside the majestic hall, Gu Changge was stroking a fluffy snowy-white fox’s tail with one hand while his other hand was flipping a tiger-shaped jade talisman. With an intriguing expression, he asked, “Are those his exact words?”

 

“I wouldn’t dare to hide anything from you, Master. These are Bai Lie’s exact words. When he gave me this jade talisman, he told me that I can use it to find him,” Yin Mei respectfully answered after repeating what Bai Lie said to her at that time to Gu Changge.

 

“Good. I was thinking about how to find Ye Ling’s location, but he personally gave it to me. What a kind man.” Gu Changge nodded with a playful smile on his face.

 

By the looks of it now, Bai Lie was the only person that had a connection with Ye Ling, so Gu Changge still needed him to find Ye Ling’s location. Of course, other than that, Bai Lie also had another use since Gu Changge was really interested in the source of his Golden Force.

 

Listening to Gu Changge’s self-mumbling, Yin Mei was confused, but she didn’t dare to ask or even think about it. She knew clearly that sometimes, it was better for her to not know about everything.

 

[As long as I never have any ideas of betraying him, he won’t kill me. I’m more useful to him alive than dead.]

 

“You did well today. From today onward, I want you to keep an eye on Bai Lie’s whereabouts. If he comes into contact with a man named Ye Ling, I want you to inform me as soon as possible.” Gu Changge ordered her.

 

“Thank you for your praise, Master. I’ll definitely get it done,” she quickly replied.

 

As for who Ye Ling was, she already knew from Ye Langtian’s mouth at the banquet. With her identity as the Gifted Lady of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, she had eyes everywhere in the world, so it wasn’t difficult for her to find the whereabouts of a person.
