Chapter 944: 0944 A little surprise! (Fourth Release)
In Zhongshan City, Bai Xiong’s protection for Shen Mengchen was sufficient. Even if someone coveted Longjia’s Ten Thousand Spiritual Liquid, they wouldn’t be able to harm Shen Mengchen.
That evening, Ye Qiu returned to the Capital City. Hearing of Ye Qiu’s return, Song Jie and his two companions immediately came to report on the situation in the Capital City.
Currently, the three families of the Iron Triangle were thriving, becoming one of the major clans in the Capital City. Relying on Ye Qiu as their great benefactor, their development was smooth and flourishing, arousing envy from many other clans. If they had known that the Iron Triangle clans would achieve such success, they would have gone all out to foster good relations with Ye Qiu at the very beginning.
Ye Qiu’s meteoric rise was unstoppable. Stepping over several prominent families in the Capital City, he ascended to the highest position and was now undoubtedly an unshakable figure of great power.
Many people couldn’t help but feel pity for the Ye family, especially when seeing the development trajectory of the Iron Triangle clans, which now faintly surpassed the other three major families. Back then, Elder Ye had deeply valued Ye Qiu, even intending to adopt Ye Qiu as his godson. Unfortunately, Ye Qiu rejected the offer, and as circumstances changed, the Ye family’s attitude gradually grew distant from Ye Qiu, even showing inclination toward Wei Ziqing at that time.
And then, as Ye Qiu eliminated Wei Ziqing and successively suppressed the War God-level figures of the Liu family, including Wei Ziqing’s master, Ye Qiu became a dazzling and unparalleled presence, capable of turning the tide in the Capital City single-handedly.
Elder Ye’s attempts to mend relations with Ye Qiu were far too late. Now, Ye Qiu rarely saw outsiders, delegating all matters to Song Jie.
Ye Qiu was very satisfied with Song Jie’s attitude and generously bestowed him with spiritual pills. When Song Jie saw the spiritual pills Ye Qiu had given him, he understood their value and immediately felt both grateful and anxious.
"This kind of pill is extremely beneficial to you. Dissolve it in spring water and drink it. Remember, do not swallow the whole pill directly; otherwise, it will cost you your life."
Nearby, Jiang Hao and Luo Ming, who each received one as well, quickly committed Ye Qiu’s words to heart.
The three expressed their gratitude before taking their leave.
In Ye Qiu’s absence over the past few days, Jin Yu had stayed on Moonwatch Peak. Now that Ye Qiu was back, Jin Yu was overjoyed, circling and spiraling in the air repeatedly.
With its resplendent golden feathers, Jin Yu looked like a divine bird, majestic and extraordinary.
What surprised Ye Qiu most was that Jin Yu could actually release concentrated energy with its breath—this big creature had cultivated its own force!
Ye Qiu asked Jin Yu to further demonstrate, and Jin Yu unleashed a burst of energy that shattered distant trees.
"So it seems animals can also cultivate, as long as they possess a certain level of intelligence." Ye Qiu murmured to himself. He wondered whether ancient lands held any creatures similar to Jin Yu. Logically speaking, there should be, though Ye Qiu hadn’t encountered any so far.
"Keep up the hard work. Strive to cultivate True Qi at an early date." Ye Qiu patted Jin Yu’s head, harboring a small sense of expectation. If Jin Yu could also reach the Legendary Realm or even the Mythical Realm, what a wonder that would be.
A mythical-realm bird would certainly wield greater power than humans.
Playfully interacting with Jin Yu for a while, Ye Qiu turned his focus back to cultivation. He wanted to expedite his breakthrough to the Mythical Realm.
He was just one step away—once he perfected his domain, he would advance further.
Ye Qiu held immense anticipation for the Mythical Realm.
Deep into the night, moonlight filtered through the villa’s glass windows, illuminating Ye Qiu’s silhouette bathed in silver radiance. Seated in meditation, he delved into contemplation, persistently refining his domain in his mind.
Only very few people knew of Ye Qiu’s return to Moonwatch Peak, but even so, a steady stream of visitors climbed the peak daily, hoping to meet him. Some sought his miraculous healing, others aimed to establish ties, and still others wished to pledge loyalty to him.
All such visitors were turned away by Song Jie at the gate. Ye Qiu had explicitly instructed him not to see anyone, and Song Jie diligently enforced this directive, remaining unmoved by any pleas or persuasion.
After consuming spring water infused with the spiritual pill bestowed by Ye Qiu, Song Jie felt an inexhaustible surge of energy and vitality every day. Reflecting on how Ye Qiu had once restored his injured arm with wondrous techniques, Song Jie grew increasingly convinced that Ye Qiu was no ordinary man. Especially after witnessing Ye Qiu abstain from food and drink in recent days, Song Jie now believed Ye Qiu was akin to the legendary fasting Immortal.
Day after day, disappointed visitors departed Moonwatch Peak, even Elder Ye once made an attempt but returned gravely ill and narrowly escaped death afterward.
Time trickled by as Ye Qiu trained on Moonwatch Peak. Two full months passed, and Ye Qiu still felt his domain was lacking just a tiny aspect, preventing him from reaching perfection.
"Perhaps I’ve been too impatient," Ye Qiu muttered to himself. With continued refinement of his domain, Ye Qiu sensed his breakthrough drawing closer, yet the lingering impatience in his heart seemed to obstruct his final comprehension—leaving a small gap within his domain.
Deciding to descend the mountain for a change of pace and a clear mind, Ye Qiu called for Jin Yu and rode the eagle to Fang Sijie’s house.
After knocking several times on the door, Ye Qiu realized Fang Sijie wasn’t home, likely with Yinyin being at school. Ye Qiu had no choice but to leave.
Next, Ye Qiu arrived at the Dragon Group base.
"You brat! You’ve become the Group Leader of the Dragon Group, yet you’re never around. Aren’t you being too irresponsible?" As soon as Ye Qiu entered the base, he was scolded by his old master.
Ye Qiu could only meekly endure the reprimands—after all, the old man was his master.
Fortunately, Mei Huiling interceded, sparing Ye Qiu from further lecturing.
After discussing martial arts with his master and mistress, Ye Qiu found that both of them had also reached the Legendary Realm. However, achieving higher cultivation now proved exceedingly difficult.
Still, from a casual remark made by his master’s inadvertence, Ye Qiu gained invaluable insight into the persistent flaw in his domain.
The discovery filled Ye Qiu with elation; he hadn’t expected a moment of accidental wisdom from his master to spark a revelation.
Ye Qiu didn’t rush back to attempt a breakthrough, taking a relaxed mindset instead. Attaining the Mythical Realm now felt inevitable, and Ye Qiu’s mental state grew calm and composed.
After conversing with his master and mistress for half the day, Ye Qiu greeted several Dragon Group members. Upon seeing Ye Qiu, many of them had started addressing him as "Group Leader."
Ye Qiu noted that Ye Zi, the little girl, was in seclusion and chose not to disturb her, letting her focus on her closed-door cultivation.
Mu Zhige, Lin Wurou, and Li Xiaohu, the veteran members of the Dragon Group, also addressed Ye Qiu as "Group Leader," feeling a sense of nostalgia mixed with amazement.
Who would have thought that in a little over a year since they had brought Ye Qiu into the Dragon Group, he would rise above them, becoming their superior and the Group’s leader?
Ye Qiu greeted the trio and finally turned his gaze toward Si Ma’ao at the far end.
"Group Leader Ye, I humbly request the opportunity to exchange techniques with you. May I?" Si Ma’ao stepped forward and spoke softly.
Ye Qiu’s prolonged glance at Si Ma’ao stemmed from his surprise—Si Ma’ao had advanced beyond the True Qi stage and become a Legendary Martial Artist, a development that astonished Ye Qiu.
What Ye Qiu didn’t know was that Si Ma’ao’s breakthrough owed largely to the cultivation technique left behind by Wei Ziqing, whom Ye Qiu had defeated. Without Wei Ziqing’s legacy, Si Ma’ao would likely never have reached this milestone!
Seeing Si Ma’ao’s bold request to test skills with him, Ye Qiu didn’t decline. Instead, he calmly replied in front of everyone, "Very well. Let’s spar here, then."
