The battles of the Qin Dynasty continued but the large forces had all started leaving Chaoge City . Next, the Dongqin College would start enrolling students .
Ye Futian's group returned to Book Mountain . Everything seemed to go back to normal .
The College examinations for this year were about to start . Strong cultivators from all over the Divine Capital came . Perhaps pressured by the Dongqin College, the College would hold largescale entrance exams this year and enroll more talented cultivators . It caused a splash in the Divine Capital . Countless youths would come to the College .
What had happened at Chaoge had spread throughout the Eastern Barren Territory . Everyone knew about it . The Divine Capital was the College's territory and was one of the three main cities of the Eastern Barren Territory . Naturally, they paid more attention than other places .
The Dongqin College would definitely become a superpower but the Cottage still had its legacy . Especially with Gu Dongliu's victory over Lu Nantian and Zhuge Hui's appearance, everyone witnessed the Cottage's true face again .
The first three disciples of the Cottage could all represent the top of the Eastern Barren Territory alone .
The powerful College was about to hold exams and the Divine Capital was watching . People from the other mountains of the College paid attention too . Many talents appeared, attracting much attention .
This all seemed unrelated to Ye Futian . He continued to cultivate quietly in the Cottage, preparing to go back to Nandou . He was confident in himself but he couldn't underestimate Luo Junlin either . There was a difference in plane, after all .
One day, Yi Xiaoshi found Ye Futian and had a strange expression .
"Seventh Senior Brother, why are you looking at me like that?" Ye Futian found his eyes strange .
"How many girlfriends do you have?" Yi Xiaoshi blurted .
Ye Futian made a face . He glanced towards Zhuge Hui and Xing'er . The two pretty girls looked over and Ye Futian glared at Yi Xiaoshi . "Seventh Senior Brother, you're ruining my image . "

What the heck . He asked how many girlfriends I have . Is he purposely ruining my perfect image before Senior Sister? Jealousy . He must be jealous of my status .
Yi Xiaoshi gave him a look . What image?
"The new students are choosing their mountains today . A really beautiful girl didn't choose any mountain—not even the first one . She said she wants to join the Cottage to find you . " Yi Xiaoshi side-eyed Ye Futian . How many pure girls had this guy tainted?
Yi Xiaoshi had gone down the mountain to look . The girl's eyes were very clear and she was beautiful . She was definitely an innocent one . Thinking of Ye Futian's character, she must have been lied to . So why was Ye Futian pretending to be innocent before Senior Sister?
"Uh…" Ye Futian was awkward . "Seventh Senior Brother, you're purposely doing this . How can someone other than Jieyu come to find me?" Jieyu was part of the Moon Clan . She wouldn't take part in the College's exams .
"I'll give you a hint . She's a silver-haired beauty, cold as ice . " Yi Xiaoshi continued giving him a look . Did he really want to deny it? Could the girl have found the wrong guy?"
"Uh…" Ye Futian blinked, deflating . He'd thought of someone . Silver hair, cold as ice… She was indeed unforgettable .
Seeing Zhuge Hui and Xing'er grinning at him, Ye Futian looked away . This was too awkward!
"How beautiful?" Zhuge Hui smiled at Yi Xiaoshi .
Yi Xiaoshi looked at her and replied, "Very beautiful but definitely not as beautiful as you, Second Senior Sister . " He had chubby cheeks when he smiled and looked submissive . After being with Ye Futian for a year, he'd learned some things just by watching . He had to—his status was at risk .
"Xiaoshi, your smile is so fake," Zhuge Hui said cheerily . Yi Xiaoshi's smile froze awkwardly . Looking at Zhuge Hui, he didn't even know how to reply .
"Seventh Senior Brother, you spoke wrongly . Few women can be compared to Senior Sister . I do know that girl but she can't even be compared to Senior Sister," Ye Futian said seriously . His tone was much more natural than Yi Xiaoshi's .

"I always like what Junior says," Zhuge Hui said with a smile .
Yi Xiaoshi was about to cry . How come they were so different? Even being shameless required talent . He could only lament at his lack of skill .
Beitang Xing'er watched this all with a smile . Xiaoshi wanted to copy the junior but it wasn't the same . Ye Futian was attractive and looked even better when he smiled . This was his personality too . He was natural when complimenting girls and it felt comfortable .
"Since she's here for Junior, bring her here for me to see," Zhuge Hui said with a smile .
"Uh…" Yi Xiaoshi blinked and looked at her in shock before nodding . "Okay . "
With that, he left, feeling sad at the bias . Zhuge Hui was too biased . Even girls who came for Ye Futian could enter the Cottage .
When Yi Xiaoshi left, Zhuge Hui smiled at Ye Futian . "Old lover?"
"Senior Sister, I'm not like that . " Ye Futian gazed into her eyes and explained seriously, "Her name is Loulan Xue . She's a regular friend I made in the Ancient Barren World . "
"Why would a regular come to find you at the Cottage?" Beitang Xing'er asked . There was no trust in her eyes .
"Really…" Ye Futian looked into the eyes of his pretty senior sisters and muttered sadly, "If you don't trust me, you can ask her later . "
"Okay," Zhuge Hui replied, smiling .
The newcomer indeed was Loulan Xue . She'd participated in this year's grand exams and performed extraordinarily well . She was known as the most powerful of this year . Everyone paid attention to her and even the top mountain wanted her . They believed she could be the direct disciple of the dean .
At this time, there were many disciples at the square on Book Mountain . Loulan Xue stood primly in the middle . One would be attracted with a single glance and everyone was like that . Every mountain wanted her but Loulan Xue said she wanted to find Ye Futian at the Cottage . This caused an uproar . Many people guessed that she was Ye Futian's old lover .

Some knew Loulan Xue, such as Tang Ye . He'd seen Loulan Xue when she was with Ye Futian in the Ancient Barren World . But Ye Futian and the others all entered the Eastern Barren World last year while Loulan Xue didn't . Many people forgot about her .
The disciples from last year were also in the crowd, such as Nangong Jiao and Tuoba Yun . They were attracted by Loulan Xue's aura too . Many people said that not only was she the best of this year, the last year couldn't beat her either .
At this time, someone walked over and stopped close to the crowd . People looked over . It was Yi Xiaoshi from the Cottage . Loulan Xue looked over too . Many people thought she would be disappointed . She was talented but one didn't enter the Cottage just by being talented . No one in the Cottage was normal .
The event at Chaoge had bolstered the Cottage's reputation .
"Second Senior Sister wants you to follow me up the mountain," Yi Xiaoshi said . As soon as he spoke, everyone stared at him in shock .
They knew clearly who the second senior sister was . It was the powerful girl who dared to shatter the Dongqin College's gate . She wanted Loulan Xue to go up the mountain . Was she going to accept Loulan Xue as a disciple?
"Oh . " Loulan Xue started walking, following Yi Xiaoshi towards the Cottage . Everyone looked over but they didn't argue . If the Cottage really wanted her, what was there to argue about? No force in the Eastern Barren Territory could compete with the Cottage .
They were sure that the Cottage's one word was more impactful than a genuine invitation from any top force .
Yi Xiaoshi brought Loulan Xue to the Cottage . After seeing Ye Futian, Loulan Xue kept looking . It had only been one year but now, everyone in the Eastern Barren Territory knew his name . Her mother said that he was born this way . There would be chaos wherever he went .
"Hello, Virgin . " Ye Futian smiled at her . He didn't think they could meet again after the farewell at the Ancient Barren World . He definitely didn't expect her to come to find him .
"Yes . " Loulan Xue nodded . Her personality was cool, just like her aura .
"How come you're here? Are you going to cultivate at the College?" Ye Futian asked .
"I'm here to find you?" Loulan Xue looked at him with her silver eyes .
"Find me?"
"Yes . " Loulan Xue nodded .
"Why do you want to find him?" Zhuge Hui asked, grinning . This silver-haired girl really was cold .
Loulan Xue glanced at her and then back at Ye Futian . She bowed her head slightly and hesitated to speak .
"Just speak," Ye Futian said after seeing that .
Loulan Xue raised her head, staring at Ye Futian . "My mother wanted me to ask you if you plan on marrying me . "
Ye Futian was shocked . Zhuge Hui and Beitang Xing'er were shocked too . They gaped at Loulan Xue . Did this cold girl really ask that?
"Good friends indeed . " Beitang Xing'er grinned at Ye Futian, smiling ambiguously .
"Seems like we don't have to ask anymore," Zhuge Hui asked, smiling .
Yi Xiaoshi felt emboldened . He gave Ye Futian a look . Was he still going to deny it? Was he still going to pretend? He'd lied to this innocent girl and now, she'd come to the Cottage . Was Ye Futian going to take responsibility?
Ye Futian's mind was in turmoil . He stared at Loulan Xue . "Virgin, even if the Empress acts recklessly, you shouldn't . "
He didn't know how to reply!
