Everybody fell silent. Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai stared at Meng Chuan blankly, speechless.

A 16-year-old had comprehended the Force? A legendary genius was right in front of them?

Five patrolling guards also rushed to the small courtyard. They had also heard the wall collapsing, but their speed was clearly much slower than Meng Dajiang’s and Liu Yebai’s.

“Master,” said all five guards respectfully. The guard captain looked at the collapsed wall and couldn’t help but say, “This wall…”

“I was sparring with Chuan’er and accidentally damaged it.” Meng Dajiang returned to his senses and immediately instructed, “Arrange for someone to mend the walls tomorrow morning. Hurry up and leave.”

“Yes.”

The five guards bowed respectfully and left. At the same time, they were rather perplexed. To destroy a wall in a sparring match? Master and Young Master sure are good at causing trouble.

Silence returned to the courtyard again. Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai continued to stare at Meng Chuan.

“Dad, Uncle Liu.” Meng Chuan couldn’t help but say, “The two of you…”

“Dajiang, your son is extraordinary,” Liu Yebai whispered. “He figured out Force at the age of sixteen. Heavens, entering Archean Mountain is almost a certainty. If I had such a powerful son, I would wake up from my dreams in laughter!”

At this moment, Meng Dajiang suddenly thought of many things. His wife had instructed him to teach Meng Chuan personally while he practiced the saber. He had taught him every day since he was young, and the young Meng Chuan had trained seriously as well. His foundation was very solid, and he had taken one step at a time. When he was fifteen, he finally began to s.h.i.+ne.

He had become the most outstanding member of the five G.o.dfiend family clans.

At the age of sixteen, he had comprehended Force. This put him at the top of Eastcalm Prefecture.

Meng Dajiang’s eyes couldn’t help but redden. He knew very well how hardworking his son was. He smiled, and his eyes turned moist. “Very good, very good.”

“That’s all you can say?” Liu Yebai asked.

“Dad.” Meng Chuan looked at his father as well. He had been diligent in his cultivation. Apart from his oath to become a G.o.dfiend to slay demons, he also wanted his father to feel proud. As a son, making his father proud was one of his desires.

Meng Dajiang smiled and immediately took out a flare. He triggered it, and the flare shot into the sky. It was very eye-catching in the dark.

…

The Meng family ancestral mansion.

“Oh?” Fairy Meng walked out of her building with her walking stick. She stared at the flare in the distant sky. She had personally given the distress flare to Meng Dajiang. It had her Quintessential Essence branding in it, allowing her to sense it once it was activated within fifty kilometers.

“Why would Dajiang suddenly request for help?” Although Fairy Meng was puzzled, she vanished from the yard.

…

In about half a minute, Fairy Meng arrived at Mirror Lake Meng Manor. She came to the small courtyard and saw the collapsed wall. She saw the father and son duo, as well as Liu Yebai.

“What happened?” Fairy Meng looked at the collapsed wall and felt a little puzzled. “Dajiang, you don’t seem to be suffering any injuries. Why did you suddenly request for help?”

She had only given only five people the distress flares; two people were Meng Chuan and Meng Dajiang.

“Aunt.” Meng Dajiang’s face was filled with uncontrollable joy. He whispered, “Chuan’er has figured out Saber Force.”

Fairy Meng was stunned for a moment before her eyes lit up. She looked at Meng Chuan and asked, “You have figured out Saber Force?”

“Yes, Grandaunt,” said Meng Chuan respectfully.

“Can you show it to me?” asked Fairy Meng.

Meng Chuan nodded his head and struck out with his palm. With the fusion of Saber Force, his Quintessential Energy cleaved out from his palm. A blurry saber beam that spanned ten feet in length sliced through the ground.

“Quintessential Energy Release.” Fairy Meng’s body trembled as she watched. Her eyes filled with excitement as she mumbled, “Great, great! Wonderful, just wonderful.”

Quintessential Energy was formless in the first place, so it couldn’t leave the body without a medium. But once Force guided it, it would be like a gentle stream of water forming a sharp “saber,” causing a qualitative change.

More potential could be excavated if the body was fused with Saber Force.

Fairy Meng put down her walking stick and closed her eyes, muttering softly. “The ancestors have blessed us.”

Meng Chuan, Meng Dajiang, and Liu Yebai fell silent. They didn’t disturb Fairy Meng.

“Meng Chuan.” Fairy Meng opened her eyes and sat down on a stone bench. She smiled and said, “Come, have a seat.”

Meng Chuan sat down on the stone bench obediently.

Fairy Meng looked at Meng Chuan, her eyes filled with love. She said with a smile, “I wasn’t wrong about you. You figured out the Force at the age of sixteen. Even in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you will be considered a genius. As long as you don’t slack off for the next few years, you will definitely be able to enter Archean Mountain.”

“I definitely won’t slack off,” said Meng Chuan immediately.
