“What should you do?” Manstein considered it to be quite funny. But then he started to speak for this time and for the first time, Manstein just said his sentences.

“If you have a trouble with her, just speak up what’s on your mind! Just tell her why you are acting like that and then you can start the good relationship.”

Hearing this made Ye Yingyuan felt like someone had thrown the cold water to his head! “I really don’t understand. Why should I talk with her?”

Of course, Manstein could understand from that statement. In Ye Yingyuan’s point of view, some of the faults lied in the opposite party. Well, that was not wrong but if he really forgot the mistakes in the past then all of them were the same!

“Okay, you are still young after all.” Manstein sneered. In a society like our world, the relationship of someone had a great role in the career of every person.

Even Manstein needed this to further research his method of Soul Transfer because doing it alone would only get him nothing. Not only that but when he was going to go on the subject of his work, he also needed someone and only by relation that he could accomplish such a feat.

But to give this boy a good reason that could be accepted, Manstein must change his way of explaining. After all, this place was different and the way it works here was different too.

“It is not a bad thing to have a relationship with anyone, even that person is someone you dislike or you hate. But of course, you must set aside your feeling first.” Even Manstein knew that this was easier said than done.

“How? I mean, what can I do? I’m not someone who easily forgive anyone like her.” Protested Ye Yingyuan.

“Just said all of those opinion to her! And then you should admit your mistake as well. Whether she accepts it or not is of no concern for you right now.” Left without many words, Manstein only said that to him.

“Wait! What do you mean?” Ye Yingyuan confused and his mind filled with countless questions that appear from nowhere.

“Just reconcile with her already!” in the end, he only said the most crucial issues that Manstein wanted to say.

Then both of them turned silent, no one speaks of that moment. But all of the sudden, Ye Yingyuan moved and seated beside Li Ling.

But the situation stagnated and no change could be seen. ‘What should I say to her?’ at the thought of starting a good conversation with Li Ling, he did not even know how to do it unlike when he was talking with his brother and family.

“Ehm...” but the more he tried to talk, the harder for him to open his mouth. As for Li Ling, she felt so awkward that she rooted in her place.

‘What is he doing?’ she thought. Li Ling also wanted to talk with Ye Yingyuan properly but she was really someone with pride, she could not speak about her apology.

Then Ye Yingyuan took a long breath to calm himself before said, “You know....I think that I also in the wrong here.”

But to continue it made Ye Yingyuan felt like ascending to the heavens, so hard! Even he found it strange that he barely able to say the words he previously said.

Then Li Ling shook her head vigorously. “No, you are right.” She replied to continue the conversation.

“Really? But I thought that my doing that time really inappropiate and I’m sorry for that.” At last, Ye Yingyuan just straight to the point without too many words to stall.

Hearing that words made Li Ling’s eyes lit and pure happiness was written all over her face. “Actually, it should be me that said those words to you.” Said Li Ling.

Did not know why but hearing the reply from Li Ling made Ye Yingyuan confused. ‘Isn’t she have that pride? Why is she so happy now?’

Seeing the expression that Ye Yingyuan made which is like an idiot made her puff her cheeks in anger. “I really mean it! I’m not lying and it’s not like I already admit my defeat to you.” Li Ling said with a dissatisfied manner.

In the end, Ye Yingyuan could only scratch his head while smiled wryly. “Oh, so that is the real intention you still approached me these years!” Ye Yingyuan finally figured out something.

‘If this is true then....’ Ye Yingyuan felt like someone who only knows how to distance himself from her. He returned to his own soul realm.

In there, Manstein placed his hands below his chin. He looked like lost in thought and at the serious one at that. He sat without moving an inch and nothing could distract him from his thought.

“What are you doing?” Ye Yingyuan pondered for a bit before asking. In fact, Manstein just thought about the possibility to a certain thing and only when he got the body to resides that he could start experiment on this.

He just imagined it when Ye Yingyuan asked and in turn woke him up. “What’s wrong?”

“No, it just feels strange for me to see Li Ling behave like that.” Ye Yingyuan said. Manstein then used the sight and saw that Li Ling showed her delight face directed at Ye Yingyuan.

“So it’s like that. I think that you have a good start.” Manstein almost laughed because Ye Yingyuan could not accept it so easily. Manstein then gestured with his hands, telling Ye Yingyuan to continue with his business out there.

While the condition in the Ye residence was peaceful but in another place, dozens of the crater formed from a battle.

“It’s not over yet!” Wei Liang had broken the Yellow Straw Lock Formation that formed from the countless straw that comes fro Nie Yang’s hat.

Now, Wei Liang’s eyes were bloodshot and his arm muscle bulged and his cultivation power erupted and surged towards Nie Yang!

“Splitting Rock Punch!” screamed Wei Liang. This fist technique was actually a martial art technique. Wei Liang’s body was strengthened by the daily training and body tempering, which increases his strength when fighting someone at the same power as himself!

Nie Yang snorted before unleashing his power that backed by the formation in the hat. This formation act as a cage for Wei Liang but from the condition of the straw, Wei Liang could break the formation with his full power.

“Don’t be so proud!” Nie Yang used a fan that was filled with his energy as well as a pattern in it. He flicked the fan and soon the wind that had a terrifying momentum started to sweep towards Wei Liang.

The wind made Wei Liang struggled and like a kite that its thread was severed, he flew for a hundred meters before he stop. “Really interesting! You have some good stuff there.” Wei Liang’s desire for battle had reached the peak.

He once again flew towards Nie Yang and this time, an image appeared behind him. It was the figure of a humanoid with its face had additional eyes on the forehead.

“Nirvana Image!” Nie Yang had known about this. It was when someone reached a stage called Nirvana Rebirth that they started to projected it. Fortunately, he currently also in the early stage of Nirvana Rebirth but would not use the full strength.

“Damn you! Do you want to battle so much!?” Nie Yang really hated someone who likes to battle others as if their life depended on it.

“Splitting Rock Punch!” this time with his image together, the strength behind this punch increased as well. This punch that unleashed from Wei Liang made Nie Yang frowned.

Then, in the end, Nie Yang grabbed his bag. This bag was the item that he used when he certain of victory or when he was in a life and death situation.

“Bag Devourer!” Nie Yang directed the sucking power from the bag towards the punch that arrived shortly after. Nie Yang could feel the force behind those punch and he felt that his decision was correct.

Wei Liang was using his full power to strike Nie Yang but unable to land it on the person. Instead, his bag even devoured the force in his punch making him weaker over time.

‘Almost, just a little more!’ Nie Yang planned to end this when Wei Liang exhausted his energy in his strike. Nie Yang’s eyes lit up when the punch lost its force and Wei Liang started to fell back.

“Don’t think you can freely dodge this!” Nie Yang suddenly threw his straw hat in horizontal, changing it like the attack of the disc.

Wei Liang felt the danger from that attack and his image also moved in a defensive stance but the straw hat cut everything that obstructs its path!

‘Not good!’ Wei Liang could not maintain his image and blood started to flow from the corner of his mouth. But suddenly a barrier blocked the hat completely and even send the hat back to Nie Yang.

“It’s good I’m on time!” Ye Canghai finally arrived but his face showed that he came there at his fastet speed possible and he was sweated even with his full speed.

“Junior Brother!” Wei Liang surprised to see Ye Canghai arrival but for Nie Yang, he ran away the instant Ye Canghai arrived. Even both of them could not lock him with their intent.

Underground, Nie Yang gripped his bag and cursed as he pleased. “Damn it! Damn it all! If not for the fact that I’m coming here because my body is heavily injured, I will not use this treasure.”

This mysterious bag was Nie Yang’s most treasured item. In fact, he found it on a ancient ruin and he seized it. The Escape from Heaven was the name of this movement technique that Nie Yang used currently was in fact an ability of this mysterious bag.

He then disappeared and for both Ye Canghai and Wei Liang, they returned to the Xuan city.

They first revisited the mayor’s mansion. Li Dian personally reprimands his adopted ‘son’ Li Kuang in a hard way.

“Why are you do this to Father? Why!?” he really whipped Li Kuang’s body and the sight made everyone who watched it a sense of pity if not the fact that Li Kuang often abused his position.

“Can’t I? Even if father appointed Ling’er as your successor to become the mayor, she will not be able to do that.” Retorted Li Kuang.

And the most excruciating thing right now was his son clearly lost himself. This made Li Dian’s anger towards anyone who caused this to flare up.

That was when Wei Liang and Ye Canghai came. When they entered the back yard, they stunned for a second before returning normally.

“What happened here?” Ye Canghai kindly asked. Li Dian explained it, “Currently I’m trying to get information about someone who gave Li Kuang a pill that made him stronger at a faster rate and made his mind corrupted!”

Even Ye Canghai and Wei Liang could hear Li Dian gritted his teeth.

“Wait, what do you mean corrupted?” Ye Canghai suddenly felt a bad premonition about this. “He now obsessed with the power he got as a result from consuming that pill!” Li Dian felt that this was the most crucial clue he got.

“No way....are you sure?” Wei Liang asked in a serious manner. But from the sight of it Li Dian had known that this person must be someone who had a relation with Ye Canghai and his cultivation base was more powerful.

“Yes, some of the doctors said that Li Kuang suffered a minor mental disorder and after that, I finally know that only my son has the information about the strange man.”

Li Dian had more concern towards this than the stronger cultivator. That was why he only told them this without minding Nie Yang’s sudden visit.

Both Ye Canghai and Wei Liang said at the same time when their eyes met. “Cleansing Ancient Sect!”
