My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Cheng Zhihai was speaking when he suddenly seemed to realize something and stopped.

His heart was secretly shocked.

Cheng Guang’s Spirit Dao cultivation, why did it feel like it had already broken through to the sixth grade of the Enlightenment Realm?

A sixth-grade in the Enlightenment Realm before the age of twenty?

That was surely on par with Qin Yanqiu’s astoundingly gifted talent, right?

Even though Cheng Guang practiced the Spirit Dao, which had a faster cultivation speed compared to Martial Cultivation, overall, Qin Yanqiu was still a bit more formidable.

But to Cheng Zhihai, it was already more than enough to satisfy him.

Wasn’t this what he and Duke Zhen had painstakingly planned for when they plotted for the bloodline of the Great Chu royal family?

The rapid improvement of Cheng Guang’s cultivation.

Made Cheng Zhihai’s mood unexpectedly buoyant.

He felt that Duke Zhen’s Mansion had its future assured.

Wu Yuemei glanced at Cheng Zhihai, and knowing that he had only spoken half of what he intended without continuing, she felt extremely uncomfortable, with the impulse to make Cheng Zhihai finish his sentence right then and there.

But after thinking it over, Wu Yuemei restrained herself.

Today, she would give Cheng Zhihai some face.

Once Guanger had left, she would properly question him.

With these thoughts, Wu Yuemei helped Cheng Guang pack his luggage. After Cheng Guang’s personal luggage was organized, the group went towards the mansion’s gate.

Since this was a marriage procession,

The team that Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei prepared for Cheng Guang appeared much more festive, with tall horses wearing red flowers around their necks, and many carriages pulled opulent and ample gifts.

Had it not been inappropriate to be too ostentatious on this trip, Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire

Cheng Guang would have suspected that Wu Yuemei and the others might also want to arrange a band for him, parading all the way to Taihao Sword Sect with gongs and drums.

With this in mind, Cheng Guang intended to summon the Flying Boat, allowing the group to take the Flying Boat to Taihao Sword Sect.

The Flying Boat was faster than the vast majority of Exotic Beasts and had plenty of room for rest. If possible, Cheng Guang would always choose to travel by Flying Boat.

This Flying Boat was an exceedingly rare and precious item in the whole world, and even Cheng Zhihai only had one.

Now that Cheng Zhihai was not going out, he let Cheng Guang use it first.

If Cheng Zhihai needed to go out in the future, the Flying Boat would probably still have to be returned to him.

Cheng Guang couldn’t help thinking that it would be wonderful if he could one day have a Flying Boat of his own.

Pondering this, Cheng Guang boarded the Flying Boat.

After everyone had embarked, Cheng Guang waved to Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei below, then set off.

As this was a bridal pickup mission and the round-trip would only take a day or two, Cheng Guang didn’t bring Qin Yanqiu with him and only took Qing Luan for personal service, keeping everything else simple.

The Taihao Sword Sect was located to the southeast of the Great Zhou Capital.

Cheng Guang steered the Flying Boat, heading southeast.

In just a moment, the Flying Boat controlled by Cheng Guang disappeared from the sight of Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei.

Cheng Zhihai watched the direction in which Cheng Guang had departed, and as he was about to return to the mansion after pulling Wu Yuemei, who was still in a daze, he suddenly sensed something, frowning slightly as he looked towards the direction of the Imperial Palace in the Capital city.

He vaguely sensed a trace of Qi rising as Cheng Guang left the Capital, quickly following behind him.

But that Qi appeared only for an instant.

Cheng Zhihai wasn’t sure if it was just an illusion.

"What’s the matter?" Wu Yuemei noticed Cheng Zhihai’s unusual behavior and asked.

Cheng Zhihai shook his head.

"It’s nothing, probably not worth worrying about," he replied.

With that, he continued to hold Wu Yuemei’s hand as they walked into the mansion. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Wu Yuemei did not inquire further.

After entering the mansion, Cheng Zhihai couldn’t help pondering.

That pulse of Qi he had just felt, coming from within the Imperial Palace and closely following his Guanger’s departure, was it really just his imagination?

If not an illusion,

Then either someone in the palace wanted to target Guanger, or it was just a coincidence?

If it was the latter, it wouldn’t matter much.

But if it was the former, the matter was serious.

The Emperor had no reason to target Guanger, unless there was something he was unaware of?

With this thought,

Cheng Zhihai paused slightly, still not at ease. His concern for Cheng Guang’s safety was greater than his own life.

If he had not noticed that concealed pulse of Qi, it would have been a different story.

But now that he had detected it, he could not stand idly by.

Letting go of Wu Yuemei’s hand, Cheng Zhihai said, "Yuemei, go back to your room and rest. Guanger’s trip to Taihao Sword Sect might not go without incidents, so I will follow and keep watch."

Wu Yuemei’s brows furrowed slightly and she said, "Previously, Guanger went to Great Yan and had no issues; this time within Great Zhou’s borders, moreover on a trip to Taihao Sword Sect, will return in just a day or two. What could possibly happen?"

"Besides, Guanger is not short of guards..."

Cheng Zhihai did not explain further but after soothing Wu Yuemei with a couple of words, he stepped into the qi, ascended into the sky, turning into a streak of light, and set off in the direction Cheng Guang had left.

Wu Yuemei watched Cheng Zhihai’s departing figure, and could not help but shake her head slightly.

It wasn’t that she wasn’t concerned about Cheng Guang’s safety but felt that Cheng Zhihai was possibly making a mountain out of a molehill. If he was concerned about Guanger’s safety from the start, he could have accompanied Guanger to Taihao Sword Sect from the very beginning.

Although it might be slightly against etiquette for a father to accompany his son on a bridal procession, as a Martial World Sect, Taihao Sword Sect would clearly not care too much about such formalities.
