The three people only recovered from their shock after taking a very long time.
But right now, the three of their faces all had looks of dilemma. The Vast Heaven Pagoda was originally their Three Sects’s object. But now, it was appropriated by Ye Yuan for himself. This was something that they were unable to tolerate.
The Vast Heaven Pagoda was an immensely valuable fortune. How could it be gone just like this?
But Guo Taoqun heaved a sigh and said, “Old Ancestor, don’t be thinking too much. Old Hai made me bring a few words to you all.”
Ning Yixian’s expression became intent as he said with a nod, “Speak!”
“Old Hai said, the Vast Heaven Pagoda is just a dead object. Placing it there, you all can’t even make it through the sixth level! But Ye Yuan is somebody with a great destiny. The four of us following him will receive endless benefits! With him around, the Endless World won’t perish! Don’t think about harming Ye Yuan. Otherwise, he’ll go to the Three Sects personally to find you guys and have a discussion! The urgent matter on hand is to integrate the various sects’ strength to cope with the Fierce Gale World’s invasion!” Qin Yan said slowly.
Qin Yan’s words made the three old ancestors’ hearts tensed up.
Qi Hai seemed to have long guessed what they were thinking. That was why he instructed these three juniors to relay his words. Furthermore, even though he was not in the alliance, his guess was not far off the mark regarding the alliance’s matters. He knew that right now, they were still a pile of loose sand.
This warning could not be said to not be severe. If the three of them really dare to act rashly without careful thought, Old Hai might really do something.
Ning Yixian was the most prudent and already broke out from that sort of restless emotion earlier. He looked at Guo Taoqun and said, “Are the three of you already prepared to follow wherever Ye Yuan goes?”
Guo Taoqun suddenly kneeled and did a kowtow towards Ning Yixian, saying in a solemn voice, “Taoqun is a Heavenly Martial Sect member in life and a Heavenly Martial Sect’s ghost in death! In the future, when I have some accomplishments, Taoqun will definitely bring the Heavenly Martial Sect to greater heights, becoming my Endless World’s number one faction! From the moment Ye Yuan came out of the pagoda, Taoqun knew that he’s a target whom I’m unable to surpass all my life. Following him, perhaps I can obtain unimaginable achievements!”
Ning Yixian looked at Guo Taoqun with a complicated look. He only gave a long sigh after some time and said, “Forget it, forget it, you go then! But I hope that you’ll remember today’s words. Don’t let me down!”
Guo Taoqun said with a steadfast gaze, “Old Ancestor rest assured; Guo Taoqun absolutely dare not to forget!”
Qin Hongtao looked at his own grandson and said helplessly, “Seems like you have this idea too?”
Qin Yan nodded and gave Qin Hongtao a solemn kneel. Yin Yanhua imitated the two as well, paying obeisance to Jing Xuan.
Chapter 593 - The First Hand Seal!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
City Lord Manor was also a scene of bustle right now.
Following the war between two worlds drawing back the curtains, the front line martial artists’ demand for medicinal pills skyrocketed too.
Ren Xingchun has been leading the pill refinements all along these days and did not participate even in the upper echelons’ meetings.
Ye Yuan went to pay respects to his parents. What surprised him was that his mother, Ren Hongling, was actually cultivating in closed-seclusion. Instead, it was his father who was idle.
He only knew after asking that ever since Ren Hongling regained essence energy, she started to cultivate frenziedly. In this period of time where Ye Yuan was at the Vast Heaven Mystic Realm, she had been in closed-seclusion all along.
Regarding his mother’s situation, Ye Yuan could only smile helplessly. Looks like these few years, the desire that his mother suppressed in her heart finally erupted.
After meeting, the father and son pair could not dispense with a round of showing great concern. Ye Yuan briefly recounted the Vast Heaven Pagoda journey, making Ye Hang very excited.
An artifact which made the entire Endless World crazy was actually taken into possession by his own son. This sense of accomplishment was huge.
Being informed that his son had to leave again tomorrow, Ye Hang said with a loud laugh, “Go on, go on! Fine men have to be ready to realize their aspirations all over the world! But now, the situation has changed drastically. This Crimsonlight City is an extremely dangerous place. Take utmost precaution!”
Ye Yuan perceived unwillingness to part and concern from Father’s eyes. But Ye Hang put on an appearance of not caring at all. It was hilarious. But Ye Yuan was touched in his heart even more.
Although Ye Yuan’s current strength had long surpassed Ye Hang, in Ye Hang’s heart, Ye Yuan was forever a child.
But Ye Hang’s support regarding Ye Yuan’s decision already became unconditional. Because he believed in his own son.
Apart from this, Ye Hang had unbounded confidence in his son.
If one was to say the name of the Endless World’s savior, then this savior was definitely Ye Yuan!
“Father, put your mind at ease. Yuan-er has a score in his heart and won’t mess around. Moreover, in the Vast Heaven Pagoda this time, I obtained a type of very powerful talisman. Even when facing Peak Divine Traversing Realm martial artists, I have the strength to protect myself too,” Ye Yuan said smilingly.
The reason why Ye Yuan took on this mission which everyone was unwilling to take was that Crimsonlight City was too important.
Unless they sent out Divine Traversing Realm powerhouses, other people going would only be courting death.
Furthermore, the martial artists of a dozen over southeastern cities were gathered in Crimsonlight City. The number was huge. Once the city was breached, then the people would be plunged into an abyss of suffering.
Ye Yuan had long treated the Endless World as his own home already. How could he bear to watch such a thing happen?
Of course, Ye Yuan going this time still had another objective, and that was to see what were these Fierce Gale World folks were planning. Why would they carry out this sort of heartless act like massacring the people in these cities?
In Ye Yuan’s impression, although the Fierce Gale World’s people were warmongers, they were not bloodthirsty.
There were definitely reasons for doing such a thing.
Indeed, once Ye Hang heard Ye Yuan say so, his heart was immediately set at ease.
. . . . . .
“What? Ye Yuan he actually wants so many medicinal herbs in one go? He . . . Even if he’s taking these medicinal herbs to eat for food, he doesn’t need so many either, right?”
Ning Yixian saw the inventory in his hand and was shocked until his jaws nearly hit the ground.
The grades of these medicinal herbs were not high. The highest was also just Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal herbs. But the quantity marked on the list was seriously too massive.
“You mustn’t forget, this boy is still an alchemist!” Jing Xuan reminded.
Ning Yixian was stunned, but he still shook his head and said, “Of course I know that he’s an alchemist. But there aren’t that many alchemists inside Crimsonlight City either. What does he want to do with so many low-level medicinal herbs? Him refining medicinal pills alone, even if he refined till the year after next, he can’t finish refining either, right?”
“Ye Yuan tends to exceed all expectations when doing things. Him doing so should have his own intentions. Going to Crimsonlight City this time, he’s only bringing the four of us. Then this big play naturally has to fall on these medicinal herbs. Although I don’t know how he will refine medicinal pills, I think that he wouldn’t go so far as to do this because he’s bored,” Yin Yanhua said.
Ning Yixian was stunned. Thinking carefully, it seemed to be like this. He then ordered people to prepare the
medicinal herbs.
“Do the three of you have anything in mind? Ye Yuan playing a lone hand this time, how on earth is he planning on resolving Crimsonlight City’s crisis?” Ning Yixian suddenly asked.
The three people all shook their heads blankly. Guo Taoqun said, “Honestly speaking, starting from the first time I laid eyes on Ye Yuan, I’ve never figured out his thoughts at all! My thoughts simply can’t keep in pace with his. When I calculate ten steps, he probably already calculated a hundred steps long ago.”
Ning Yixian smiled bitterly when he heard that and said, “Putting aside you guys, even this old man has never figured out his thoughts before either. Forget it, forget it, let him toss and turn himself. Us, these old fellows, just have to ensure the logistical work will do! Old Man Qin, our two families each send out a team again, and head towards Fairsun and Perpetual Peace, these two cities, respectively!”
Qin Hongtao nodded and said, “Alright. No problem!”
“Since the three of you are going follow Ye Yuan in the future, keep in mind to not give in to personal feelings. His strength has already surpassed yours by far too much now. You guys have to double up yourselves. Not just anyone has the qualifications to follow by a powerhouse’s side!” Ning Yixian said solemnly.
The three people’s expression tensed up, and they all nodded their heads somberly.
. . . . . .
Ye Yuan and Ye Hang conversed all the way till midnight before returning to their own rooms.
In is room, with just a will of his mind, he arrived inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda.
“This Nine Characters True Word Formula is truly incomparably profound. The ‘Lin’ character’s first hand seal, I’m unable to form it to this day. But through such a long time of fumbling about, I’m only missing one final step as well. I wonder if my Heart Realm can break through after forming this first hand seal.”
This period of time, apart from cultivating the Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm, Ye Yuan was comprehending the ‘Lin’ character.
Except that this rate of progress was even slower than he imagined.
Ye Yuan had been anticipating all this while that he could have some breakthrough in Heart Realm after this ‘Lin’ character had some breakthrough.
Ye Yuan closed his eyes slightly and started visualizing the ‘Lin’ character.
Through this period of visualization, Ye Yuan could faintly sense that this ‘Lin’ character had a total of nine hand seals. But what he could visualize clearly right now was only this first hand seal.
These nine hand seals formed a complete seal. If one could completely acquaint themselves with these nine hand seals, the power would likely be unimaginable!
In a twinkle, a night passed. Dawn was breaking.
All of a sudden, a rather mysterious sensation poured into Ye Yuan’s heart.
Ye Yuan opened both eyes abruptly, both hands swiftly forming a seal!
Ye Yuan who was initially just lacking one final step actually successfully formed it this time!
Right at this moment, Ye Yuan’s heart rate suddenly sped up. The Heart Realm which had already reached a bottleneck originally actually burst through directly!
Except, this final result made Ye Yuan rather disappointed.
“Sigh . . . I thought that I’d already reached the threshold of Heart Like Monolith. Turns out that it’s just the Heart Like Still Water’s bottleneck! No wonder Heart Realm boundaries are so hard to break through. Just the first level of Heart Like Still Water is so challenging already. If I didn’t acquire this Nine Characters True Word Formula, I’m afraid I don’t know how long I’d have to be stuck at this bottleneck,” Ye Yuan said helplessly.
Chapter 594 - Try to Let Her Be Carefree
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yun Bixue raised her head and looked at Xie Limo. After seeing the dark and faint glint in his exquisite eyes, her heart trembled. She knew that he wasn’t lying.
Xie Limo was domineering. She felt lucky that she loved him. She recalled what Xie Liu had said before—the other women who were in love in Young Master Xie would feel miserable since they couldn’t have him.
And the woman whom Young Master Xie loved would feel either opposite extremes—she could be miserable or utterly blissful.
The difference between these two extremes was whether that woman loved Young Master Xie or not.
She knew that Xie Limo loved her and that she belonged in his heart. Being pampered and coddled by him, it was fortunate that she loved him, that was why she could enjoy such happiness.
Sometimes, she thought that if a woman was being loved by someone like Xie Limo, she would surely be moved by him too. How could she not like such a man back?
It was just like her heart. Regardless of how cold and broken it had been, it slowly warmed up and melted after being protected and cared for by him.
She didn’t know why, but with Xie Limo staring at her, Yun Bixue’s heart began to pound. She opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but she couldn’t say a single word.
After some time, Yun Bixue lowered her head. Pinching the corners of her shirt, she finally said, after feeling conflicted, “Ever since you pulled me out of my misery, I’ve wanted to spend my whole life with you.”
Yun Bixue’s low and gentle voice crept into Xie Limo’s ear. She sounded so soft, and it stirred his heart and brightened up his mood. Those words made him extremely happy. “Sure, my wife will stay with me for the rest of my life.”
Xie Limo paused for a moment then continued, “Since you’ve decided to spend your life with me, you have plenty of time to understand what I do and everything else about the Xie family, don’t you? There’s no hurry!” He was truly worried that he would cause his wife to feel too burdened.
Some time back, she had overwhelmed herself in order to share his burdens and strengthen herself. As a result, her body was worn out. If she were to learn more and force herself further, he couldn’t even imagine how she would push herself, given her personality.
In that case, it would be better for him not to let her know. He wanted her to live life in a carefree manner, without any stress and burden.
Later that night, the two of them went to the supermarket to buy groceries. They were discussing what to buy for their dinner.
“Hubby, we haven’t had tomato fried eggs in a long time. Let’s eat have these for dinner, okay?” Yun Bixue asked Xie Limo as she stood in front of the tomatoes and picked several of them.
“Okay, you want to eat what I cooked, right? I’ll cook it for you tonight.”
After picking two of the largest and ripest ones, she hooked her arm in Xie Limo’s. He pushed the cart, and the two of them continued walking. In fact, Yun Bixue liked the feeling of walking and buying ingredients together for their meal.
Just as the two of them were about to go to the checkout aisle, they heard an argument coming from the makeup shelf in front of them.
Yun Bixue wasn’t a nosy and curious person, so she didn’t go over to take a look. However, she heard a woman’s cry for help, and the voice sounded familiar to her.
Yun Bixue’s paused in her steps. When she turned around, she saw a crowd of people talking among themselves.
“Isn’t this Mistress Chen? Has she started to shoplift now? Tsk, tsk. She still pretends to look like a rich madam. So disgusting. She’s even here to steal things. What a disgrace!”
“I don’t know anyone like that. I heard that she had stolen several times already, but since her daughter was married into the Su family, their backing had allowed her to bail out. Now that Meng Xinyan had been chased out by the Su family, let’s see who can bail her out now.”
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree indeed. I heard that Meng Xinyan even tried to strangle her own daughter. The Su family even refused to see her now!”
“Well, what do you expect? With Chen Pei as her mother, there’s no way Meng Xinyan could be nice!”
Chapter 594 -
Slaughter Our Way In!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Heart Realm this sort of thing was a mystery even among mysteries. Even in the Divine Realm, nobody could give the accurate minor boundaries divisions either.
All along, Ye Yuan had half-baked knowledge regarding Heart Realm as well.
Along with the time of him entering Heart Like Still Water Heart Realm getting increasingly longer, he thought that he had already walked very far along the path of Heart Realm.
But looking at it now, it was not the case at all!
Ye Yuan realized that he probably only stayed for a time on a Heart Like Still Water’s minor boundary up until now.
And succeeding in the ‘Lin’ character’s first hand seal, Ye Yuan finally broke through this minor boundary.
Ye Yuan entered into Heart Like Still Water Heart Realm and fastidiously sensed the changes after breaking through.
However, he discovered to his dismay that there did not seem to be too obvious a change.
“Could it be that apart from reducing the expenditure on heart force, there aren’t other changes? The advancement in Heart Realm is a kind of auxiliary realm. There must still be other effects! Oh right! Comprehending concepts!”
Ye Yuan suddenly had an inspiration and started to comprehend concepts.
At this time, Ye Yuan discovered to his joy that his speed when comprehending concepts actually obtained a substantial increase!
This sort of enhancement was not worth mentioning when relatively speaking about the entire concept’s comprehension duration, but accumulating months and years, this sort of enhancement margin would be very terrifying!
Ye Yuan attempted to comprehend the Scorching Concept earlier. He discovered that the short while of comprehension efficiency just now was twofold than before!
In the past, Ye Yuan already noticed that under Heart Like Still Water Heart Realm, the speed of comprehending concepts was slightly faster compared to normal.
But breaking through the bottleneck now, he did not expect that the extent of the increase would actually be so great!
