Chapter 926: 0926 Villa Completed! (First Update)
An entire night had already passed, and there was still no news from the Assassin.
The elder of the Wang family at the War God level revealed a hint of disappointment. "It seems the operation has failed!"
"Failure is not the issue. If he’s dead, so be it. But if Ye Qiu finds out it was your doing, he will surely come to settle the score," the Xu family War God level elder said with concern.
The elder of the Wang family at the War God level showed no hint of panic and said, "Don’t worry. This Assassin I hired is no ordinary one. Even we two may not necessarily detect his presence. In terms of concealment, this man has already reached the realm of the God of Assassins."
The Xu family elder let out a soft "Oh," understanding the weight of what the God of Assassins represented—a pinnacle existence in the assassin world. Such a top-tier assassin could be said to have never failed. Only someone with a flawless record of success could hope to earn the title of God of Assassins.
"In that case, our chances of exposure are much lower. Even if he failed to assassinate, he should be able to quickly hide himself," the Xu family War God level elder said.
The elder of the Wang family at the War God level nodded in agreement. What the two of them didn’t know was that this God of Assassins had been dealt with by Ye Qiu in just one encounter, leaving no opportunity to conceal himself. Moreover, using a spiritual probing technique, Ye Qiu had already uncovered the mastermind behind it: the elder of the Wang family at the War God level.
However, Ye Qiu did not immediately confront him. He was waiting—waiting for his strength to recover further.
As time passed, the War God level elders of both the Wang family and the Xu family began to sense not only the failure of the assassination but also the likelihood that the God of Assassins had been killed by Ye Qiu. Ever since that night, there had been no news of him.
Ye Qiu continued to focus on regaining his strength each day. The foundation had long been set, and the subsequent recovery progressed much faster. The villa itself was built almost overnight, using modern materials such as special steel walls, aside from the foundation.
At Ye Qiu’s request, a massive boulder had been preserved, and the area around it was renovated into a training room. Moonlight would stream through the transparent roof to illuminate the stone.
The entire villa was completed in less than half a month.
Both its design and renovation were uniquely crafted, earning Ye Qiu’s satisfaction.
"I’ve recovered four levels of my strength. Just one more, and then it’ll be time to settle accounts with that ’fellow Daoist,’" Ye Qiu murmured, sitting cross-legged on the boulder, absorbing the moonlight.
The days passed one by one.
The Capital City was as calm as a still lake, devoid of ripples. The Iron Triangle families’ status grew increasingly stable, while the Liu family had long since been marginalized to the lowest rank, reduced to a minor family. Liu Wen rarely appeared anymore.
As for the other three influential scions of the Capital City, Wang Lin and Xu Rui still frequently appeared together and continued to command attention and respect. Ye Sa had embarked on a path of politics, transferred to an outpost for training by the elder Ye. Meanwhile, Ye Shuang was traveling across the country for unknown purposes. According to her, she wished to find a powerful individual, someone at least as strong as Ye Qiu, and ultimately marry such a person to bring a War God-level ally into the Ye family.
This idea was somewhat outlandish, but the elder Ye did not interfere, simply letting Ye Shuang wander as she pleased.
Moonview Peak had become a hot topic in the Capital City, as it had now become someone’s private residence.
Many wished to pay their respects to Ye Qiu and went to Moonview Peak for that reason.
However, the path leading to Moonview Peak was treacherously steep, surrounded by swirling mist. One careless step could send someone spiraling into death below.
The path was so daunting that older individuals had no chance of climbing it, and even the young trembled at the thought of scaling it.
For a time, the challenge of reaching the summit of Moonview Peak became a popular topic for adventurers.
Fang Sijie and Yinyin rode on Jin Yu to ascend Moonview Peak. Yinyin felt a deep sense of wonder, particularly enchanted by the breathtaking beauty at the summit, which filled the little girl with joy.
Fang Sijie was also entranced by the scenery before him and found himself momentarily lost in its splendor. This place was like a paradise on earth—no wonder Ye Qiu loved it here.
Caroline, dressed in alluring attire, greeted Fang Sijie. By now, Fang Sijie was no stranger to this foreign beauty, having met her before. This time, they coexisted peacefully without any contention.
Seeing a small empty plot in front of the villa, Fang Sijie started planting vegetables there, personally digging the soil, creating pits, and sowing seeds.
Watching the two women busily tending to the makeshift farm, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but feel that this kind of pastoral life brought incredible tranquility to his heart. If he could avenge the Du Gu clan, returning here to live a simple life seemed like a good idea.
After spending an entire day at Moonview Peak’s villa, Yinyin reluctantly followed Fang Sijie back, the trip made possible by the wondrous creature Jin Yu, who swiftly ferried them home.
Over the next three days, Ye Qiu’s energy had grown significantly denser. His immense aura stirred the clouds atop the mountain, and under his control, the mist transformed into various ancient beast forms, appearing quite amusing.
Jin Yu soared through the mist. Seeing the ancient beasts formed from the clouds, it immediately dove through them, scattering the figures and then smugly displaying its triumph.
Ye Qiu beckoned, and with a swift motion, Jin Yu flew over to him.
The giant creature had grown increasingly majestic of late. Unfortunately, Ye Qiu presently had no alchemical pills on hand and could only have Song Jie deliver live chickens and small snakes daily to satiate Jin Yu’s appetite.
Every time Ye Qiu saw Jin Yu’s reluctance to eat these offerings, he couldn’t help but laugh. The creature had become picky.
"Once I’ve dealt with that ’fellow Daoist’ soon, I’ll refine a few batches of pills for you."
Jin Yu, understanding Ye Qiu’s words, shook its head affectionately in agreement.
Stroking Jin Yu’s wings, Ye Qiu marveled at how the creature had grown to nearly thirty meters, surpassing the size of a helicopter. Its speed and strength far eclipsed that of an ordinary gyrfalcon.
There was no denying it—this creature had mutated!
Especially in recent days, Jin Yu had begun practicing breathing techniques alongside Ye Qiu. It had even exhaled a visible puff of turbid air from its beak, much to Ye Qiu’s astonishment.
Could beasts cultivate, too?
Reflecting on the mythical worlds filled with demons and spirits, Ye Qiu figured it wasn’t so far-fetched. That Jin Yu could cultivate wasn’t surprising after all. Its intelligence was exceedingly high, and following Ye Qiu’s training had clearly borne results. Furthermore, the various Spirit Pills Ye Qiu had fed it in the past had undoubtedly contributed to its current state—it all made sense.
With these thoughts out of his mind, Ye Qiu no longer hesitated.
Without needing Ye Qiu to speak, Jin Yu understood and immediately spread its wings. Ye Qiu lightly stepped onto its back, and with a leap, Jin Yu soared into the sky.
Whoosh!
Jin Yu’s massive form cut through the clouds, with Ye Qiu standing atop it, his hair fluttering gently in the wind.
"To the Capital City—Wang family!"
Jin Yu emitted a sharp cry and flapped its wings forcefully. In an instant, they disappeared from the summit of Moonview Peak.
The Capital City. Wang family.
The War God-level elder of the Wang family was abruptly roused from his cultivation, feeling an intense unease.
His gaze slowly turned toward the skies outside, and suddenly, his eyes narrowed as he saw a black dot rapidly enlarging.
The elder’s heart sank—it was Ye Qiu!
