The sky gradually darkened. Through the dense leaves of the ancient trees, one could see the afterglow of the setting sun slowly fading away.
Ye Qinghan activated his Battle Aura and walked quickly for a while. Then, he slowly relied on his physical strength to recover his Battle Aura. After recovering his Battle Aura, he continued to move forward. Walking and stopping like this, he had already left Barbarian City in the afternoon. He was now nearly 20 kilometers deep into the mountain range.
"Phew! Let's call it a day. Let's find a place to rest. "
Ye Qinghan carefully looked around. About 20 kilometers deep into the mountain range, the environment had changed greatly. There were ancient trees that were dozens of meters tall everywhere. Their leaves covered the sky, and the ground was covered with unknown ancient vines and weeds.
Whoosh —
Ye Qinghan kicked the ground and leaped lightly. Grabbing with both hands, he jumped onto an ancient tree branch that was the size of three people standing side by side. After a few leaps, he used both his hands and feet to pass through the dense leaves and climbed to the top of the ancient tree.
"Hmm, this place is not bad. Let's rest here for the night."
High up on the ancient tree, a few thick branches stretched out side by side, just like a few wooden planks put together to form a natural bed. Ye Qinghan lay down on it, feeling quite comfortable. He decided to spend the night here.
Taking out some dry food and fresh water, Ye Qinghan ate hastily and closed his eyes to meditate. Absorbing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, he used the "Night Emperor Mantra" to slowly recover the Battle Aura he had used up in the afternoon. Leaning against the tree trunk, he fell into a deep sleep.
…
At the same time, under the same night sky, in Cang City a few hundred kilometers away. Ye Qingyu, however, could not fall asleep. The cold air of the spring night was still present, but she stood alone in her own courtyard, gazing into the distance towards the south. Her brows were furrowed, and her face was filled with worry.
Stars shone on the ground, and also on Ye Qingyu's snow-white face. Her clothes were whiter than snow, and when the night wind blew, her sleeves fluttered. From afar, Ye Qingyu looked like a fairy that had fallen to the mortal world. Looking up at the sky, she didn't know when she would be able to return to heaven.
"Brother …"
Ye Qingyu suddenly opened her mouth and said. Her two beautiful eyes that were like stars unconsciously became misty. Her body trembled slightly. After a while, she wiped away her tears and began to mutter to herself in the direction of the south. It seemed that she had many things to tell her brother who was far away in the south.
"Brother … Where are you? You don't know this, but after you left the Moon Queen, someone from the family suddenly came. She said that she wanted to marry me to the Xue Family, to Xue Wuhen … At that time, I was scared stiff and refused. At that time … you don't know the situation. You almost couldn't see your sister anymore. They were also scared silly and didn't dare to threaten me too much … But, brother, do you know, they came back a few days later. They … they actually threatened me, saying that if I didn't agree, they would send people to kill you … Wu wu! I didn't know what to do, I really didn't know what to do … In the end, I could only lie to them and say, "It's fine to marry him, but I have to wait for your return, or else I'll commit suicide … I, I really didn't know what to do. Now that they have people watching me all the time, I don't know what to do. Brother, come back quickly … "
As she spoke, Ye Qingyu's pretty face was filled with tears. Her delicate expression was heartbreaking.
Ever since Xue Wuhen saw Ye Qingyu in Niulan Street, he called his bodyguard Old Shi to rush back to the family and bring 20 bottles of high-grade pills to exchange for Ye Qingyu's hand in marriage. He knew that Ye Qingkuang and Ye Rong had been coveting his Snow Panacea for a long time. He planned to marry Ye Qingyu, who had the Jade Spirit Body, with a 20th-grade pill.
More than a month later, Old Shi returned to the Ye Family. At the same time, he brought 20 bottles of high-grade Snow Panacea. Xue Wuhen went to look for Ye Qingkuang that very night and told him that he liked Ye Qingyu very much. He hoped to exchange 10 bottles of Snow Panacea for Ye Qingyu to be his concubine.
As expected, Ye Qingkuang went to look for Ye Rong that very night. The two of them had a secret discussion and decided to do it secretly. After all, if this matter was reported to the family, the family would definitely agree to it. However, out of the 10 bottles of Snow Panacea, they would be lucky if they could get even one bottle.
Therefore, they made a false report in the name of the family. Ye Qingkuang also sent one of his right-hand men, Ye Qingxie, to announce the marriage. Who knew that Ye Qingyu, this girl, was actually very strong-willed on the inside. When she heard the news that day, she actually wanted to commit suicide in front of Ye Qingxie. Ye Qingxie had no choice but to leave in a hurry and inform Ye Qingkuang and Ye Rong.
Ye Qingkuang and Ye Qingxie didn't dare to make this matter big. They were afraid that if the family found out, they would not only get nothing, but they would also be accused of colluding with outsiders to bully an orphan.
After a few days, Ye Rong came up with a plan. He continued to send Ye Qingxie to tell Ye Qingyu that if she didn't get married or committed suicide, someone would harm her brother. As expected, Ye Qingyu panicked and didn't dare to cut her wrist. In the end, she could only lie to Ye Qingxie that she had to wait for her brother to come back before getting married. Otherwise, she would rather die.
The Ye Family's side courtyard was brightly lit.
"Young Master, how do you think we should deal with this matter?" In the courtyard, Xue Wuhen, who was dressed in white and had a face as white as jade, sat in the middle of the main seat. He had an imposing air of nobility and an extraordinary temperament. His eyes were shining brightly like a crown prince walking out of the palace. Beside him, two old men, one white and one black, stood respectfully. The one who spoke was Old Shi in white.
Seeing that Xue Wuhen was silent and seemed to be thinking about something, Old Mo's face turned gloomy. "Ye Qingkuang and Ye Rong, you two useless things. You can't even handle such a small matter. Why don't the two of us directly kidnap that girl and bring her back to the Drifting Snow City?"
"No need!" Xue Wuhen waved his hand and finally spoke, "Don't act rashly and alert the enemy. If the three old men from the Ye Family are drawn out, we won't be able to get anything. You should know that ordinary people can't see the Jade Spirit Body, but the three old men can definitely see it. Moreover, that girl is very strong-willed. If she wants to die, then all our efforts will be in vain. "
Eh! Old Shi and Old Mo nodded slightly. Only a living one could be called the Jade Spirit Body. A dead one could be called a corpse. The Ye Family's Clan Leader and the two Supreme Elders were extremely powerful. If they were drawn out, it would be troublesome.
"Next, we'll do two things. Tell Ye Qingkuang to add another ten bottles of Snow Panacea after the matter is settled. Ask him to think of a way to settle this matter. Also, send Xue Yi and the others to the Barbarian City to take down Ye Qinghan and force Ye Qingyu to give in … I must get the Jade Spirit Body! "
"Yes, Young Master!"
It was deep into the night. At this moment, hundreds of miles away, Ye Qinghan was still sleeping soundly. He didn't know that a conspiracy against him and his sister, Ye Qingyu, was slowly unfolding, quietly blending into the thick darkness of the night.
The sky gradually brightened. The golden sunlight from afar shone through the mottled leaves and onto the ground, illuminating the entire Barbarian Mountain Range.
Ye Qinghan had already woken up and was cultivating his Battle Qi as usual. He operated the "Night Emperor Method" and slowly converted the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth into a faint trace of Battle Qi in his body. This Battle Qi was then stored in the cells and meridians of his body.
The cells of the human body could only store a small amount of Battle Qi. Furthermore, when Battle Qi was used, the circulation speed was very slow. Therefore, Battle Qi was basically stored in the meridians after cultivation.
Everyone was born with some impurities in the meridians more or less. Therefore, this required a martial artist to cultivate after birth. Using the small amount of Battle Qi in the cells of the body to dissolve, impact, and dissolve the impurities in the meridians, making the meridians clear and thick so that they could store more Battle Qi and circulate it faster. From there, a large amount of Battle Qi could be used to form more powerful attacks, defenses, and other functions.
Right now, Ye Qinghan was using the Yang Meridians, Yin Meridians, and the Battle Qi in the cells of his body to dissolve and corrode the impurities in the meridians of his body. Battle Qi and the impurities fused together and slowly corroded each other. After Battle Qi was used up, he would use the "Night Emperor Method" to absorb the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth and gather Battle Qi. After gathering, he would continue to corrode the impurities. Over and over again, the cycle repeated.
"Phew! Too slow. "
Two hours later, Ye Qinghan opened his eyes and stopped cultivating. Every time he cultivated, he would feel a trace of bitterness in his heart. There were too many impurities in his meridians. The twelve meridians were like twelve rivers filled with sand. Every time he cultivated, it was like holding a small shovel and slowly shoveling the sand out. Moreover, he couldn't go too fast, otherwise the riverbed would collapse and he would be finished.
After cultivating, it was time to hunt for magical beasts.
