He Jiang fell to the ground . With his cultivation gone, his expression was like dead ashes . He knew what this meant for him .
The people of the Donghua Clan looked at Gu Dongliu and Xue Ye . Someone said coldly, "Gu Dongliu, have you thought of the consequences?"
Gu Dongliu walked out and returned to the dragon . Xue Ye gazed at the Donghua disciple coolly with disdain .
Consequence? Did the Donghua Clan not think of consequences when they attacked the Cottage?
"Declare war as you wish," Gu Dongliu said . Then the black dragon roared and its body shook . It turned and shot into the clouds, flying towards the distance .
Countless eyes stared at the figure in white . As it disappeared, they still couldn't calm down .
Only the Cottage could act like this in the Eastern Barren Territory . Only they could disrespect the Qin Dynasty and Donghua Clan like this .
Declare war as you wish .
They didn't fear war even if they were alone .
The people from the College glanced at the Donghua Clan . Situ Wu said, "Let's go . " Then they left immediately .
The Sword Saint Mountain and Liu Kingdom departed as well . The people of the Qin Dynasty and Donghua Clan remained in their spots . Many of the members of top forces had odd expressions . Was this really the titling ceremony for the Qin Dynasty's crown prince? Qin Yu's name should be the one spreading throughout on a day like this . However, people will only remember that the Cottage had come from afar and disabled a Donghua Noble .
They would only remember Gu Dongliu, the third disciple of the Cottage, and the arrogant scholar Xue Ye .
Someone would be remembered today . However, it was not Qin Yu who had become crown prince . The Qin Dynasty and Donghua Clan were only the supporting characters .
Qian Shanmu stared at the figures that had long disappeared . The things that had happened made him feel many things . It had started because of him and Qin Mengruo . The gradually evolving clash between two large forces ended with the Donghua Clan's temporary defeat .

Of course, what really moved him wasn't the Donghua Clan's humiliation . Rather, it was the Cottage's disciples .
No matter if it was Gu Dongliu, Xue Yue, or even Ye Futian and Yu Sheng, they were all so extraordinary . Was this what the Cottage was—the sacred and inextinguishable legend of the Eastern Barren Territory?
He had seen Gu Dongliu's arrogance today . Compared to his senior brother, Gu Dongliu's aura was sharper . They often cultivated together so he obviously was very familiar . Now, he wanted to know if the legendary senior brother or Gu Dongliu was stronger .
The Donghua Clan's Noble was disabled today and planted the seed for the future . He had a feeling that the two would definitely have a battle .
Gu Dongliu and Ye Futian obviously didn't know what he was thinking . Even if they did, they wouldn't care . The Cottage acted as they pleased .
On the dragon's back, Gu Dongliu stood beside Ye Futian and said, "This isn't over . "
Ye Futian was surprised and looked at him . Gu Dongliu faced forward with his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly, "The Qin Dynasty won't admit it but they were definitely involved . Luo Fan told me that they must have allied with the Donghua Clan to repress the Cottage, which is why they started with you . However, I am not strong enough to defeat the Qin Dynasty and Donghua Clan . Thus, I can only disable the one who hurt Yu Sheng . I'm sorry . "
"Third Brother . " Ye Futian felt warm inside . His third and fourth senior brothers had traveled such great lengths today to the Qin palace . They helped take revenge for him and Yu Sheng, even disabling a Noble, but still felt they didn't do enough .
"Junior . " Gu Dongliu turned to gaze at him and said, "The teacher once said something to all the disciples . I will now repeat it to you . "
Ye Futian nodded .
"He said that, when walking in the world, the most important thing is to respect your teacher," Gu Dongliu said .
Ye Futian was surprised and then shocked . As expected of the Cottage's teacher…impressive .
Gu Dongliu didn't think anything was wrong with it, as if it was a fact . He then said, "Other than that, you must use reason . What is reason? Reason is the rules of the world . If the Qin Dynasty and Donghua Clan declared war, you have to bear any consequences if you agree . The Cottage will not take revenge for you . That is the way . However, they didn't follow the rules, so reason is on the side of the Cottage . Thus, the Cottage has nothing to fear . If there is anything more powerful than 'reason,' then it is your fist . If your fist isn't strong enough, you have no right to talk about reason . Therefore, the most basic thing of life is cultivation . "
Ye Futian was utterly impressed . They were simple phrases but sounded like truths of the universe . He grew even more curious about his teacher .

The Cottage had fought many times, showing their demeanor and this demeanor must have been created by the teacher he had not yet met . But thinking of the first sentence, he felt awkward . What kind of person was the teacher?
"I'll keep it in mind . " Ye Futian nodded .
"There's something else," Gu Dongliu said . "Before coming, I'd wanted Yu Sheng to become the ninth disciple of the Cottage . "
Ye Futian was shocked but quickly smiled . The moment Yu Sheng entered the Cottage, he understood that Yu Sheng would become a true disciple there as well . Of course, his feelings towards the Cottage weren't the same as now .
At that time, the Cottage was mysterious and powerful to him . Now, it was warm, like a home . He was definitely happy if Yu Sheng could be part of it .
"But Yu Sheng rejected me," Gu Dongliu continued . Ye Futian's smile froze and stared at the other in shock . "He said that if you're here, he's here," Gu Dongliu said slowly .
Ye Futian muttered, "That idiot . "
"Indeed . " Gu Dongliu chuckled . "However, I like him . Even if he's not the ninth disciple, he's still a part of us . "
"Thank you, Third Senior Brother . " Ye Futian chuckled too .
"Why don't you thank me?" Xue Ye asked sadly, moving closer to them .
"Fourth Senior Brother, I think that you should transcribe more books when you get back," Ye Futian said with a smile . These words were genuine . To Fourth Senior Brother, transcribing books must be very useful .
"We're done," Xue Ye said in mock anger . Then he looked to Gu Dongliu and grinned . "Third Senior Brother, I kind of miss our teacher . I want to go find him . "
Looking at him, Gu Dongliu smiled and patted Xue Ye's shoulder . "Junior, he must be very touched but there's no need to go look for him . If he doesn't want to come back, no one can find him . "
"Then I want to go into the society to experience the love and hate of the world," Xue Ye continued .
"What about me is not enough for you?" Gu Dongliu asked with his hands behind his back .

Xue Ye froze . He quickly smiled and said, "No, Senior, you're so talented and wise . "
"Okay . " Gu Dongliu nodded . "Then what about Second Senior Sister isn't enough for you?"
Xue Ye flinched and quickly said, "Senior, I'll go back to the Cottage . I still need to get advice from Second Senior Sister . "
"You still know your manners . " Gu Dongliu nodded but Xue Ye felt dispirited .
Ye Futian gaped at this, his expression a bit dramatic . This was too impressive . Xue Ye seemed to sense something . He glanced at Ye Futian and glared .
Ye Futian looked away as if he saw nothing .
…
When they returned to the Cottage, Yu Sheng's injury was much better . Fifth Senior Brother must have given him many nutrients .
Second Senior Sister glanced at them . She didn't ask what had happened . Since Gu Dongliu had gone personally, they wouldn't have returned if the crisis wasn't solved . Therefore, she didn't need to ask .
Her pretty eyes falling on Ye Futian, she said, "Junior, come over . "
"Oh . " Ye Futian nodded and walked before her . "Senior Sister," he greeted .
"Did you get hurt?" Zhuge Hui studied him .
"No, I'm great," Ye Futian replied with a smile .
"That's good . Did your Fifth Senior Brother not take good care of you this time?" Zhuge Hui asked .
Hearing this, Luo Fan looked up from his cooking and shook his head furiously .
"Uh…" Ye Futian saw Luo Fan's movements and quickly chuckled . "He took care of me well . What happened was pure accident . "
Luo Fan let out a relieved sigh but quickly looked jealous and hurt . "Senior Sister," he said pitifully . "Why are you so biased?"
Life was so hard on the mountain .
"I finally have a junior brother to take care of," the Second Senior Sister said, grinning . Beside her, Yi Xiaoshi made a face, feeling extremely frustrated . He had been the youngest before Ye Futian came but he didn't get this treatment .
Why was the difference so obvious?
Ye Futian shook his head . "Of the eight disciples in the Cottage, only Second and Sixth Senior Sister are girls . You two are like fairies . I should be the one protecting you and lessening your worries . "
Luo Fan and Yi Xiaoshi gaped at Ye Futian . They finally knew why there was a difference .
As expected, Second Senior Sister smiled brilliantly . "Junior, you're more thoughtful than the others . "
Depressed, Luo Fan lowered his head and continued feeding the fire . He missed the days off the mountain . He didn't know when he could go out again .
…
Many days later, the Qin palace event spread through the Eastern Barren Territory . It caused a huge splash and countless people discussed it .
They didn't really know what had happened previously inside the palace . Only those top forces knew the details . However, the Cottage disabling a Donghua Noble outside the palace was enough to shake the entire region .
Countless eyes focused on the Donghua Clan . As a group that wanted to become the top clan, would the Donghua Clan let this go?
No matter what happened earlier, this had nothing to do with right or wrong anymore . It was a fight for power between these two forces .
Just as everyone was focused on them, countless people walked out of the Donghua Clan one day!
