Xuan Xi's arrival caused the Qin Family disciples in the main hall to stand to the side and not make a sound. As for Qin De, he walked over respectfully and said. "Benefactor and my son are old acquaintances?"
"Old acquaintances? That's right, I am indeed acquainted with your son, Qin Yu. "Xuan Xi said with a smile. Immediately after, her gaze turned toward Qin Yu.
Qin Yu slightly frowned.
What was this Xuan Xi trying to do? From the looks of it, this Xuan Xi ought to have already found his royal father and the others. If Xuan Xi wanted to kill them, she would've done so long ago. Why didn't she kill them? Instead, she treated them so courteously?
"Little Yu, earlier, you said that your benefactor was the Mystic Emperor? What's going on? " Fengyuzi asked. At this moment, Fengyuzi's brows were tightly knitted. It was obvious that he was distressed.
Who didn't know about the grudges between Qin Yu and Emperor Yu?
However, the Mystic Emperor and Emperor Yu were husband and wife. After Emperor Yu died, the Mystic Emperor treated Qin Yu's family so well. She even married her beloved disciple to Fengyuzi. As long as one had a brain, they would be able to tell that something was amiss.
"Mystic Emperor." Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face. "How did you conceal your identity and become my family's benefactor? I wonder if you would be able to explain it to me?"
When Xuan Xi mentioned this, she had a bitter smile on her face. "Qin Yu, earlier, I did not tell your father and the others my true identity. The main reason was because I did not want them to make wild guesses."
Qin De, Qin Feng, Fengyuzi and the others were all standing to the side. They were quietly watching Qin Yu and the Mystic Emperor's conversation.
"Wild guesses? Mystic Emperor, you have protected so many people of my Qin Family. My Qin Family is indebted to you. I truly want to thank you. However, to be honest, Mystic Emperor, I truly do not understand why you would do such a thing. "Qin Yu said calmly.
The Mystic Emperor shook her head and said in disappointment and frustration. "If I were to say that I had completely repented, would you believe me?"
Qin Yu was stunned.
Completely repented? How could Qin Yu possibly believe that?
An expert who had reached the Ninth Grade Immortal Sovereign level would definitely have an unwavering understanding of right and wrong, hatred and enmity. They would even change and repent of their own beliefs. It was almost impossible for a person with such weak mental fortitude to reach the Ninth Grade Immortal Sovereign realm.
Of course, it wasn't impossible for him to repent.
But who was he to the Mystic Thearch? The leader of a major force in the Immortal World would be an empress in the Mortal World! How could such a person repent?
The Mystic Thearch did not wait for Qin Yu to speak as he continued, "Qin Yu, I originally did not have any enmity with you. However, because of my husband, Feng Yu, I eventually became your enemy. That time, when Feng Yu was killed by that expert under your command, I was furious and wanted to kill you. "
Qin Yu did not make a sound. His eyes locked onto the Mystic Thearch as he continued to listen.
"But then you disappeared, and as time passed, the hatred slowly faded. I, Xuan Xi, am also a Ninth Grade Immortal Sovereign. I will not be blinded by hatred. When I was fully awake, I realized something. From the beginning to the end, it was Feng Yu who forced you, vainly trying to obtain your Divine Artifact. This led to his death. "
Xuan Xi smiled indifferently, "In fact, Feng Yu's death allowed me to have no more worries. Now that I am wholeheartedly pursuing the Dao, my soul realm has also improved rapidly. As for you … I also do not want to be entangled with you. Therefore, I can only bestow you a favor and hope that we can end the enmity between us. "
Qin Yu scanned with his Divine Sense.
The last time they met, the Mystic Thearch's soul realm had just entered level nine Immortal Sovereign realm. But now, it was almost consolidated. This cultivation speed was indeed fast.
But even so, was the Mystic Thearch's words true?
"Can I trust her?" Qin Yu asked himself.
"Yu 'er, trust the Mystic Thearch for now." Qin De's immortal sense transmission suddenly rang in Qin Yu's mind. After hearing it, Qin Yu's heart calmed down.
Although his Royal Father's martial power was not high, his judgment and handling of matters was much higher than his own. His Royal Father must have his reasons for making such a decision. Qin Yu immediately sighed, "Sigh, Mystic Thearch, if Emperor Yu was as sensible as you are now, then there wouldn't have been such a series of things between me and Emperor Yu, and Emperor Yu wouldn't have died."
"Feng Yu's death was his own doing. Actually, he had already completely sunk into his heart's devil. It was useless for anyone to persuade him. As his wife, I could only help him at that time." Xuan Xi sighed.
Qin De laughed out loud. "Haha, good. It's good that Senior Mystic Thearch and my son's enmity has been settled. Senior Mystic Thearch, let's attend the banquet in this courtyard today."
"My pleasure." The Mystic Thearch smiled and nodded.
Her eyebrows were like the moon, her eyes were like autumn water, and her white clothes were fluttering in the wind. This Mystic Thearch indeed possessed a moving temperament.
*****
At the banquet.
Qin De, Fengyuzi, Qin Feng, Qin Yu … a group of Qin Clan's disciples, Mystic Thearch, Nine Amplifications Sect's Sect Master, Great Elder, Second Elder and other people had all arrived.
The courtyard was bustling with noise and excitement.
The Nine Amplifications Sect's Sect Master, Great Elder and other people had also come to know that the legendary Qin Yu was actually a Qin Clan's disciple.
Although they were puzzled as to why the Mystic Thearch had not killed the Qin Clan and instead treated them so courteously. However, the Nine Amplifications Sect's Sect Master and others did not dare to offend Qin Yu. All of them were extremely respectful, and their attitude towards Qin De was much more sincere than before.
Qin Yu, Qin De, Fengyuzi and his wife, Qin Feng, Mystic Thearch, Nine Amplifications Sect's Sect Master and Great Elder. These eight people were seated at the same table.
Ever since Xuan Xi had revealed her identity in the hall, these Qin Clan's disciples had been in a state of excitement.
At this moment, at the other tables, those Qin Clan's disciples were discussing the Immortal Realm's peak existence, the Mystic Thearch, their pride, Third Supreme Elder, Qin Yu, and some of the Qin Clan's deeds in the Immortal Realm. Only today, the Qin Clan's disciples were able to confirm that … Qin Yu was the legendary Qin Yu. This caused this group of Qin Clan's disciples who worshipped Qin Yu to become even more excited.
Meanwhile, at Qin Yu's table, all of them were toasting each other with smiles on their faces. They were not as excited as the people at the other tables.
"Brother Qin Yu, your cultivation speed is the fastest I've ever seen or heard of in my entire life … After not seeing you for over three thousand years, Brother Qin Yu's strength has become even more astonishing. I wonder what level Brother Qin Yu has reached now? "Xuan Xi smiled as she looked at Qin Yu.
At this moment, Qin De, Qin Feng, and the others were also looking at Qin Yu.
"Me? I reckon I'm not far away from undergoing the Divine Tribulation, "Qin Yu said with a smile.
Qin Yu could imagine that his soul's level had even surpassed ordinary Deities. His cultivation base and fleshly body had already reached the ninth level. He was definitely in line with the requirements to undergo the Divine Tribulation.
However, Qin Yu was unable to determine when the Divine Tribulation would descend.
"It can't be that the Divine Tribulation won't descend because I'm still at the 'Middle Stage of the Origin,' right?" Qin Yu guessed in his heart.
"You're not far away from undergoing the Divine Tribulation. In that case, I must congratulate Brother Qin Yu," Xuan Xi immediately said.
Qin De and the others did not ask any questions. Instead, they immediately changed the topic and talked about other things.
…
After the banquet had ended, the Mystic Emperor also left with the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect. Only then did Qin Yu, Qin De, and Qin Feng arrive at a room. Only then did the three of them have a proper chat.
The three of them sat around a small table and poured a cup of tea for each of them.
"Royal Father, earlier, you wanted me to believe in the Mystic Emperor? What's going on? Could it be that you think that everything the Mystic Emperor said was true? "In the room, Qin Yu immediately asked the question in his heart.
Qin De held the teacup with both hands and said with a smile, "No, I did not think that what he said was true."
"Then Royal Father, you …" Qin Yu frowned.
Qin De shook his head and said. "I did not believe that what the Mystic Emperor said was true. I also did not believe that what she said was false. There is simply no need to determine whether it's true or false. "
"Little Yu, before that, let me tell you something first. There are twelve of our Qin Clan's disciples who have Dao companions and wives in the Immortal Realm. There are also three Qin Clan's women who have husbands. As for these Dao companions, wives and husbands, all of them are related to the Mystic Emperor. "Qin De slowly said.
Qin Yu's expression changed.
"The Mystic Emperor is indeed ruthless." Qin Yu felt that the Mystic Emperor was hard to deal with.
There were not many Qin Clan's disciples in the Immortal Realm to begin with. For fifteen Qin Clan's disciples to have Dao companions related to the Mystic Emperor all of a sudden, this matter was truly troublesome. If they were to deal with the Mystic Emperor, then what would those fifteen Qin Clan's disciples do?
Qin Feng also nodded and said. "My grandson Little Nan also has a pretty good relationship with a girl recently. According to what I know, that girl lives in the Nine Amplifications Sect."
"Amazing, amazing." Qin Yu had a trace of anger in his heart.
Now that the Mystic Emperor had used this move, even if Qin Yu wanted to deal with her, he would not be able to easily do so.
"Yu 'er, there's no need to think too much about it. If that Mystic Emperor wanted to kill our Qin Clan's people, she would've done so long ago. She would also not have dragged it out until now … Furthermore, the Mystic Emperor has indeed shown grace to our Qin Clan." Qin De said.
"Grace? What grace? "Qin Yu asked.
Qin Feng spoke and said. "Our Qin Clan's clansmen that have ascended to the Fish Sun Star have all encountered dangers before. Even my Royal Father and I were the same. However, every single time, we would be saved by the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect. There was even one time when the Mystic Emperor personally came to save us. According to the words of the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect, the reason why they protected us like this was because of the Mystic Emperor. Of course, in the past, they had only said that the Mystic Emperor was an expert with an extremely high status in their Nine Amplifications Sect. "
"Dangerous. This Mystic Emperor might have deliberately set up some dangerous situations." Qin Yu was instead filled with vigilance toward the Mystic Emperor.
If the Mystic Emperor was sincere.
Then why would she allow so many women, and even men, to become the Dao companions of the Qin Clan's children?
"That might be the case. However … I am certain that the Mystic Emperor has shown grace to our Qin Clan. Furthermore, it's a very great grace." Qin De said solemnly. "Yu 'er, before that, let me tell you something. You'll understand."
"Royal Father, please speak." Qin Yu said.
Qin De said. "Yu 'er, you should know that the people of the Purple Mystic Star of the Mortal Realm, as long as they are Immortal cultivators, would all ascend to the Fish Sun Star. Furthermore, out of every ten people that ascend to the Fish Sun Star, over half of them would not even live past a hundred years. "
"Really?" Qin Yu was astonished. He had never cared about this sort of thing before.
Qin Feng nodded and said. "That's right. When they had just ascended, they were merely level one Heavenly Immortals. Level one Heavenly Immortals are considered to be at the bottom of the food chain on the Fish Sun Star. However, because those people that ascended were all outstanding talents in the Mortal Realm, the majority of them would possess some treasures and the like. However, because the Heavenly Immortals of the Fish Sun Star were too ordinary and their status was too low, their treasures were far inferior to the Immortals that ascended. Thus, the Immortals that ascended would generally be slaughtered by people with ulterior motives. "
Only now did Qin Yu come to understand.
"Five out of ten would die. This is the approximate ratio. The vast majority of them are like this. However, in all these years, not a single descendant of our Qin Clan that ascended has died! "Qin De said solemnly." Why is our Qin Clan so special? It's precisely because of the protection of the Nine Amplifications Sect and the secret orders of the Mystic Emperor. "
"Even though some of the dangers that our Qin Clan encountered were set up by the Mystic Emperor, some of them … still exist normally. For other sects like the Clear Void Monastery, half of the people that ascended would die. Not a single one of us would die. I presume that you also understand the great grace that the Mystic Emperor has shown to our Qin Clan. "Qin De looked at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu slowly nodded.
Regardless of what the Mystic Emperor wanted to do, it would appear that the Mystic Emperor had shown grace to the Qin Clan.
After all, if it wasn't for the protection of the Mystic Emperor, it would be hard to say whether or not his royal father and big brother would still be alive.
"Yu 'er, that's why I said that there's no need to determine if the Mystic Emperor's words are true or false. When you weren't here, she didn't kill us. Now that you've returned, she would definitely not kill us. For her to do this, she definitely has her reasons. In the future … I believe that everything will come to light. "Qin De advised.
Qin Yu did not say anything. However, he was pondering in his heart.
Qin De and Qin Feng glanced at each other. They did not disturb Qin Yu.
"If I were to directly kill the Mystic Emperor now, it could be considered as me repaying kindness with evil. However, my royal father and the others would definitely not agree to it. However, if I don't kill her … there's still the possibility that the Mystic Emperor might kill my royal father and the others. What should I do? "
Qin Yu pondered for a moment.
"Even if I were to kill the Mystic Emperor, how should I treat Uncle Feng's wife? How should I treat the Dao Companions of the fifteen children of my Qin Clan? " Qin Yu slowly shook his head. "It would seem that I still cannot deal with the Mystic Emperor now. Mn … for the time being, I can only do this."
Qin Yu had already made a decision in his heart.
"Royal father, you should leave for a period of time. Come back soon." After Qin Yu finished speaking, he disappeared. Only Qin De and Qin Feng were left looking at each other in dismay. They could not help but wonder what exactly Qin Yu wanted to do.
