Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Ye Qinghan was sleeping soundly on the pile of rubble in the hall. More than half of the originally densely packed stone pillars in the hall had already been split apart by him, but there was still a small portion that was as good as new and was quietly standing upright.
At first, Ye Qinghan thought that as long as he could find the entry point, he would be able to break through the Stone of Fate like a hot knife through butter.
He originally estimated that he would need at most a few months to find all the stone pillars without sword qi. But now that half a year had passed, he had only eliminated two-thirds of them.
Indeed, this "Minesweeper" game had a knack. In fact, he could quickly calculate whether the stone pillars had sword qi or not, and then quickly break through them. But when he really started to move, Ye Qinghan tragically discovered that this was not a game. This wasn't a game, and most importantly, he couldn't afford to make any mistakes. Because if he made a mistake, he might lose his life. Moreover, he also discovered that this chessboard was too big, and there were too many stone pillars. He did not have any objects that could be marked, nor did he use any cheats. So … he could only calculate very carefully, and every time he made a move, he would double check before he dared to make a move.
Because of this, his speed of breaking through the stages became quite slow, and because he was full of tools that could be marked, he could only rely on his brain to calculate and remember. Because of this, not only did his brain have to work very fast, but he also had to constantly remember which stone pillars nearby had sword qi, and those stone pillars were very suspicious …
So he was quite mentally exhausted. Every time he eliminated a portion, he had to stop and sleep for a while to recover his energy.
"Sigh …" After a long time, Ye Qinghan woke up, rubbed his aching head, and prepared to start another round of "Minesweeper". Looking at the tens of thousands of stone pillars nearby, and the tens of thousands of broken stone pillars, he could not help but sigh. It seemed like the military engineers in his previous life were having a hard time …
"Kid, let me remind you, you've already spent half a year. If you don't speed up, the Heaven's Road will open in half a year, and there are still two small stages after that! Of course, you have to speed up when you're sure it's safe! "Lu Xi was sitting in a corner, and seeing that Ye Qinghan had woken up, she reminded him.
"Eh! Thank you for your reminder, Senior. I will take note! " Ye Qinghan nodded. He rubbed his temples, narrowed his eyes, bent his body, and continued his career as a military engineer.
…
Behind the Ye Family Castle.
Ye Tianlong was very angry. His eyes were wide open, and the few white whiskers on his chin were fluttering in anger. As the leader of the Ye Family, he hadn't been this angry for many years. The last time he was angry was when Ye Qinghan caused havoc in the Enchanted Garden a few years ago. However, at this moment, not only was he extremely angry, but he was also unable to vent his anger, so he was very angry.
In the Ye Family, the only person who made him angry but did not dare to do anything was Ye Ruoshui. Of course, after Ye Qinghan wreaked havoc in the Intoxicated Heart Garden, he also had the right to do so. But now, there was one more person, Ye Qingyu.
That's right, it was Ye Qingyu who made Ye Tianlong so angry that he almost went berserk this time.
The cause of the matter was actually a gathering order from the Ye Family a few days ago. It had been four and a half years since Ye Qinghan had entered the God-slaying Mountain. In another half a year, the God-slaying Mountain's Heavenly Road would open. Not to mention that Lord Devour's message said that the supreme treasure of the God-slaying Mountain would appear this time. Because Ye Qinghan's life and death were still unknown, Ye Tianlong had listed this God-slaying Mountain trip as the top priority of the Ye Family.
Thus, a gathering order was issued from the Ye Family Castle. The Ye Family wanted to recall all the Emperor Realm experts of the Ye Family. They also sent out name cards and paid a high price to summon all the peak Emperor Realm experts of the House of Ares. Half a year later, an extremely powerful lineup was prepared to welcome or rescue Ye Qinghan.
He had asked Ye Ruoshui and she had told him that there was a high chance that Ye Qinghan was still alive. Thus, he didn't hesitate and prepared to organize the largest force that the Ye Family could organize to head to the God-slaying Mountain to rescue Ye Qinghan.
Ye Qinghan was the hope of the Ye Family's resurgence. Ye Ruoshui had said that if Ye Qinghan grew up, he would be more useful to the Ye Family than him …
The gathering order was issued in secret, but unexpectedly, Ye Qingwu still found out. In the end, Ye Qingwu made a big fuss and insisted on going to the God-slaying Mountain. Although her strength had only reached the second level of the Marquis Realm, she pestered Ye Qingniu every day, saying that she must go. Even if she couldn't go in, she wanted to wait outside the God-slaying Mountain for the result.
Alright, Ye Qingwu made a fuss and Ye Tianlong endured it. But why was it that when Ye Qingwu and Ye Qingniu were arguing, Ye Qingyu just happened to hear it?
Ye Tianlong looked at the young girl in front of him, who had a delicate expression but an unusually resolute look in her eyes. He glared fiercely at Ye Qingniu and Ye Qingwu and waved his hands resolutely. "There's no room for discussion. You can't go to the God-slaying Mountain, no matter how much you beg me! Ye Qingwu, go back to your room and stay there. "
"I'm going!" In these four years, Ye Qingyu had grown taller and had become more mature and beautiful. However, the delicate aura that emanated from her face was still very obvious. At this moment, she stared at Ye Tianlong and gently opened her lips. Her tone was very calm, but it was clear that she was determined.
"Yes, Great Grandfather!" Several years had passed, but Ye Qingwu was still the same. It was as if her face would never age. She pouted and didn't dare to say anything else. She turned around and left.
"Young lady, I'm begging you, don't make a fuss, okay? The family has already organized nearly sixty emperors to go and welcome Little Han. What can you do even if you go? " Ye Qingniu saw that Ye Tianlong had reached the limit of his temper and hurriedly prepared to atone for his mistake. He came over to mediate, "If you go, not only will you not be able to help, we will also have to take care of you. If this goes on, you will implicate them."
Ye Baihu also hurried over to mediate, "That's right, girl, don't make a fuss. You have to know that your identity is currently a secret. If you go to the God-slaying Mountain, it is very likely that you will attract the attention of the Monster race and Barbarian race. They will then try to assassinate you at all costs!"
"I don't need them to take care of me, I can protect myself!" Ye Qingyu shook her head and still said indifferently. It was as if she wasn't discussing this with them, but rather informing them.
When Ye Tianlong heard this, he harrumphed heavily, turned around, and scolded her without any trace of politeness, "You can protect yourself? Don't think that you are very powerful just because you have reached the second level of the Emperor Stage. Let me tell you, this time, there are a lot of powerful people in the God-slaying Mountain. Any one of them can kill you. Let's not talk about other things, just the Ye Family alone has sent more than ten peak stage emperors this time. These people can kill you easily! "
Ye Qingyu's cultivation speed was very shocking. Two years ago, she was only at the peak stage of the Duke Realm. Ye Tianlong thought that Ye Qingyu's cultivation speed would definitely slow down this time. After all, the Emperor Stage required one to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth. This wasn't something that could be achieved through cultivation alone. It required comprehension and exploration.
Just as Ye Tianlong and the others were about to explain some relevant information to Ye Qingyu … However, in just a few months, Ye Qingyu directly broke through to the Emperor Stage. It was as if she didn't need to comprehend it and directly understood it as she cultivated …
Now, Ye Qingyu's strength had reached the second level of the Emperor Stage. Although the Ye Family had sent almost all of their Emperor Stage experts to the God-slaying Mountain this time, Ye Qingyu and the others obviously wouldn't let her go. Although Ye Qingyu's realm was high, they were very doubtful that Ye Qingyu had the strength corresponding to her realm. After all, Ye Qingyu had never cultivated martial arts or fought in actual combat.
"I can protect myself. If you don't believe me … you can try!" Ye Qingyu was still very stubborn and said indifferently. It seemed that she was very confident in her strength and actually opened her mouth to provoke them.
