Oh my god! I've become the vicious female supporting character's brother.

Hearing his maniacal laughter, Yu Xiangwan remained unmoved, his light words silencing A-Da's mad laughter.

"Are you referring to the Second Miss of Lizhou?"

"Don't worry, she won't find out. Otherwise, do you think I was just playing with you guys?"

Upon hearing this, A-Da looked around in horror. Seeing the lush greenery outside, completely unaffected by Yu Xiangwan's sword energy, his eyes widened in disbelief, gradually filled with despair.

This young man's cultivation level was clearly lower than his, so how could he silently set up an isolation formation while the dozen or so of them were completely unaware?

His drafty body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Without further ado, Yu Xiangwan lifted the person up from a distance and skillfully began the soul search.

Ah Da's eyes widened in anger, but he couldn't utter a single word; his gaze gradually became dull.

A man not far from him looked at Yu Xiangwan, trembling, and said stubbornly.

"Your Excellency already has victory in your grasp, yet you still wear a veil like a shameful rat. Is it because you are ugly and feel inferior?"

Hearing the man's defiant words as he faced certain death, Yu Xiangwan readily agreed.

"Yes."

The person: "..."

A moment later, Yu Xiangwan loosened his grip, and Ah Qi died, crashing heavily to the ground.

He turned to look at the two remaining people.

They wondered why they weren't killed on the spot like the others, but instead were left hanging by a thread.

Naturally, they wanted to search the soul.

Ah Da is stupid, while the other two are a bit smarter than him, however...

"You can't even handle provocation, so now that I've taken your life, it'll be a relief for your master."

Seeing this, the other man knew that Yu Xiangwan had discovered their intentions and that a roundabout approach was no longer feasible. So, with his last breath, he charged at Yu Xiangwan, trying to tear down his curtain.

Yu Xiangwan effortlessly used his spiritual power to teleport his companion in front of him.

"Bang!" The two collided unexpectedly and collapsed to the ground.

Yu Xiangwan did not delay any longer and quickly began the soul search.

He had been in the Upper Realm for three years, and he still remembered the undisguised greed in the eyes of the heavenly soldiers who received him when he first ascended.

Fortunately, he was prepared and killed the man in one fell swoop before taking the travel permit and running away.

Yun Lian only told him about the general distribution of power in the cultivation world; the rest he had to figure out on his own.

He only learned after his ascension that the sixteen states of the upper realm were all formed by merging two states into one. They were Qianzhou and Kunzhou, which were governed by the Lin family, a family of cultivators; Zhenzhou and Xunzhou, which were governed by the Sun family; Kanzhou and Lizhou, which were governed by the Chen family; and finally Genzhou and Duizhou, which were governed by the Li family.

The four major families each governed one of the four states, and were rivals in power.

The travel permit is a pass to various states. Whenever someone ascends from the lower realm, the heavenly soldiers who guide them will distribute travel permits.

Similar to but not the same as a modern ID card, at least in this respect, whoever holds this travel permit is the owner.

Yu Xiangwan collected several travel permits from various prefectures and has been traveling between them for years.

He was not with Yu Jiaoyue and Ye Zhen'an. They only found out after their ascension that they were randomly teleported to various states' receiving points.

Ye Zhen'an and Yu Xiangwan did not initially know that he had ascended to heaven in Kanzhou.

He only found out later, but the world was too vast, and he and Ye Zhen'an had been separated for too long, so he still didn't know where Ye Zhen'an was.

The disciple's jade token brought up from the lower realm is no longer useful in the upper realm.

The communication method in the upper realm is the Feather Bead, which is made of a palm-sized piece of spiritual jade that resembles a feather.

Aside from the different shape, their function is similar to that of the disciple's jade tablet in the lower realm.

Yu Jiaoyue and Yu Xiangwan heard about it the day after they ascended to heaven and obtained the travel permits for various prefectures.

Because the heavenly soldiers who guided Kanzhou were also wiped out by an ascensionist.

Outsiders did not know whether the person was male or female, and there were many different opinions about the mysterious annihilation of the heavenly soldiers.

But Yu Xiangwan knew why Yu Jiaoyue had killed that soldier.

Like him, she was probably recognized as a descendant of the Yun Clan as soon as she ascended, and people wanted to capture her to claim credit.

For the past few years, Yu Xiangwan has worn a curtain every day to block others' view, just in case.

In all the states of the Upper Realm, there are still arrest posters for Yun Lian and Yun Jin Que.
