Chapter 165: Meeting Grandfather

  As soon as Sun Hao mentioned her name, Yu Ling subconsciously asked it out.

  "Yes, it's your master, Zi Ling Wang Zhao Shu!"

  Upon hearing Sun Hao's determined tone, Yu Ling didn't say anything else. She lowered her head slightly, lost in thought. Meanwhile, Cang Ye, who was also somewhat surprised by the complexity of things, remained silent as well.

  Both of them stopped talking. Among the core disciples behind, half of whom were younger, also showed a listening expression. Sun Hao sighed slightly in his heart. Although he shouldn't have said anything about his master's affairs, to prevent Cang Ye from leaving a shadow in her heart, he decided to tell her everything that had happened back then.

  Moreover, this time after seclusion, I will advance to the rank of Spiritual Emperor, and the promise from back then will also be fulfilled. Everyone will definitely know about it.

  Death, and everything will also disappear in smoke. Continuing to keep this secret is meaningless too.

  A moment of silence, as if sorting out his thoughts. Sun Hao slowly began to speak about the past, a hundred years ago...

  A hundred years ago, when Xuanmu Peak had not yet declined. As one of the top three super existences among the eight main peaks of Qingxia Sect, they were in their heyday.

  Li Tian Luo was the most talented disciple of the previous generation. On Xuan Mu Peak, he was an extremely strong and noble existence. His master, Ji Huang, was ranked among the top ten strongest people in the world at that time. In Qing Xia Sect, only second to the previous generation's sect leader, Feng Tian Huang Li Qing. With such a powerful backing, combined with his own terrifying talent and strength, he also became an idol figure for the entire Qing Xia Sect. Even Yue Xing Yan, who had already become the sect leader at that time, couldn't compare to Li Tian Luo in terms of popularity.

  In the same era as Li Tian Luo, there were only seven cultivators who relied on their own efforts to become Supreme. Among them was Zhao Zihui, the peak master of Youyue. As fellow disciples growing up together in the same era, Zhao Zihui's status at that time was similar to that of Yu Ling in Qingxia Sect.

  Everyone doted on the youngest sister. Because Zhao Zihui had once made a grand vow, not to enter the royal family, and all living beings did not marry. So it wasn't until a hundred years ago, when she became the Spirit King, that she received the fierce pursuit of all the unmarried disciples in the Qingxia Sect. And among these people, only Yue Xingyan and Li Tianluo were the most promising.

  The outcome of the matter was also as these people thought. In the end, Li Tian Luo really got the beauty back. Originally, the two were about to come together when an event that occurred a hundred years ago, which directly led to Xuan Mu Yi Feng being completely removed from the Eight Great Main Peaks, happened.

  Li Tian Luo abandoned Zhao Zi Huan and vowed that as long as Xuan Mo didn't return to the main peak, he wouldn't get married.

  It's also because of this that there has been a chilly relationship between Youyue Peak and Xuanguang Peak for fifty years.

  Or it was because he felt indebted to Zhao Zilong, Li Tianluo never dared to appear in the range where Zhao Zilong existed. This also made Zhao Zilong harbor a lot of resentment towards Li Tianluo.

  However, it's possible that Zhao Ziyun truly liked Li Tianluo. She has been waiting until today, a hundred years later. Since then, this once-renowned beauty of Qingxia has remained in the secret chamber. Only when accepting disciples would she end her seclusion and come out once.

  For such a situation, Li Tian Luo also knew. So, he suppressed it for a hundred years, until the recent return of Cang Ye's severe injury, thoroughly triggering the emotions hidden in his heart. In the end, he made this decision!

  Understood the course of events, Cang Ye can only keep sighing.

  The most inexplicable thing in the world is love...

  Under Qingxia Mountain, on the small path in Qingxia City.

  Yu Ling held onto Cang Ye's arm and walked quietly. She only lowered her head, never lifting it up again.

  Cang Ye, at this time, seemed still upset about Master's matter and remained silent.

  Finally, it was Yu Ling who broke the silence.

  "Brother Ye, if you were in Li Shifu's position, would you also make such a decision?"

  At the sound of Yu Ling's question, Cang Ye's footsteps stopped instantly.

  Yes, if I were in the master's shoes back then, how would I solve it?

  Just quietly ponder for a moment. The gaze of the dark night was once again filled with determination. He looked at her seriously, gazing quietly at his feathered spirit. In a rarely used solemn tone, he said to her.

  "No!"

  No, absolutely not! The sword of Cang Ye is not only a destructive sword, but also a protective sword! He wants to protect all his loved ones and friends. If so, how can he let them be in sorrow?

  Upon hearing Cang Ye's response, Yu Ling's originally somewhat depressed mood suddenly lifted. A warm and touching smile reappeared on her delicate face.

  Seeing Yu Ling's smile, Cang Ye's mood finally lifted a little.

  Yes, I've already understood this point, so why still hold a grudge against Master's affairs? Master's closed-off state is irreversible, so cherishing the present is his top priority!

  He tightly grasped Yu Ling's arm. Finally, that warm and gentle smile also returned to his face once again.

  In the city center, in front of the secular wine industry of Qingxia Sect. The two people standing at the door were quietly gazing at this Qingxia Building. The martial artists passing by looked at the two people with incomprehension. If it weren't for the two people's outstanding appearance, they would even suspect that the two had some mental problems.

  What's so special about this tavern? It's just that this tavern is the property of the number one sect in the world, except for the boss being different, there's nothing else that's different!

  "Night brother, Wei sister and grandfather are just inside, let's go in!"

  It was Yu Ling who gave Cang Ye the courage. Upon hearing her words, he finally took a step forward and walked towards the entrance...

  "Is the young master/mistress going to have a meal or take a rest?"

  As soon as he walked in the gate, the little second who had been waiting for a long time came to greet him. For people like this, they have seen many of them. At this age, with such attire, most of them are young masters from imperial families. They always like to take advantage of their youth and run around everywhere to gain some experience. As the outer gate tower of Qingxia Sect, it naturally attracted the most people to come and pay their respects to the prestige of the number one sect in the world.

  "We're here looking for someone."

  Cang Ye didn't speak up, it was Yu Ling who answered instead. At this point, he no longer had any extra thoughts to spare on answering these unimportant questions.

  Under the guidance of Yu Ling, he walked directly towards the stairs, leaving only the little second in a dissatisfied expression. However, no one who can come here is someone that this little second can afford to offend. Although dissatisfied, he didn't say anything and could only turn his head towards the door, expecting the arrival of another guest.

  Along the corridor, Cang Ye moved quietly with his footsteps. Even if he was walking in empty space, he would be extremely calm, but now that he stepped on these solid floorboards, he seemed unusually heavy. Yu Ling knew that this was because Cang Ye's mood was heavy at this moment. Others might not understand Cang Ye's mood, but as his fiancée, as Shangguan Xia's future daughter-in-law, Yu Ling naturally knew many things that others did not know.

  For this uncle, the night brother she loved the most, there was always some resentment. At that time when he left Yan Tian, Shangguan Xinghong's strength had already reached the level of a high-ranking spiritual master. In the Cang family where only the strongest were peak spiritual masters, if he could come back to visit his daughter from time to time, things would not have developed to that point.

  The hardships of his parents over the years, the humiliation and subservience back then, and the subsequent poisoning. All this has made Cang Ye full of prejudice against this grandfather he had never met before. However, after all, there is a blood connection between them. And Shangguan Xia has never truly resented this grandfather of Cang Ye's. That's why now, Cang Ye doesn't know what attitude to take when meeting this grandfather.

  For such a situation, Yu Ling was also unable to intervene. At this time, she could only encourage Cang Ye on one side and accompany him.

  It seems that a decision has been made. Cang Ye's footsteps also quickened. What was originally a long staircase that took a long time to climb, this time was traversed in an instant.

  Shangguan Xinghong, Qinquan and Yiyi's residence was arranged by the disciples stationed in Qingxia City. However, there was one person who came personally sent by Wushang, whose identity was unknown. But it was clear that he was not someone a single disciple could afford to offend. So, the three were arranged to stay in the most luxurious place in Qingxia Sect within the city.

  And the most luxurious place is on the top floor of Qing Xia Lou, the seventh floor.

  After a considerable amount of time, Cang Ye finally arrived at the door of the room that belonged to his grandfather on the top floor.

  Took a deep breath, looked at the feather spirit beside me. Found her eyes full of encouragement, this time she directly pushed open the door to the room!

  Without careful observation, he stepped right in.

  "Brother and sister-in-law, you've arrived! Has your injury fully recovered, brother?"

  A voice full of surprise came over first. Upon hearing this address, Cang Ye also knew who the owner of the voice was. The only one who can be here and call him that is his cousin, Yve, whose family has been destroyed.

  Unconsciously, a serious face finally cracked a slightly stiff smile.

  "Xiao Wei, I've recovered."

  Looking at this lovely beauty walking towards him, Cang Ye opened his mouth to respond.

  "Ah! You must be here to see Grandfather, right? He's not here now. I suppose he went out with Qinquan!"

  Hearing Yvonne's words, Cang Ye let out a slight sigh of relief. However, thinking that what was meant to come would still come, he asked again.

  "Xiao Wei, where did Grandpa go? Do you know?"

  "At this time, Grandfather should have gone to the martial arts arena with Qinquan! You also know that Qinquan is passionate about swordsmanship, and Grandfather is even more of a cultivation madman. After they recovered from their injuries, they went there every day."

  Nodded, indicating understanding.

  "Well, I'll go look for them then. Are you staying here or coming with me?"

  When Cang Ye heard the words, Yvonne directly shouted to get together. As the eldest daughter of the Yin family in the past, she was a girl who liked excitement. It's just that because of the destruction of her home and being dependent on others, she hid her natural personality. Now that her great revenge has been avenged and she has also found two relatives, her natural personality has finally returned somewhat.

  "Let's go together!"

  After finishing speaking, Cang Ye walked out first. Immediately following, Yu Ling also walked out with Yi Wei, arm in arm, behind Cang Ye's back.

  As they passed through the lobby of the wine house, the little waiter watched with wide eyes as Cang Ye took Ivy away from here. His heart was filled with relief.

  Fortunately, I didn't say anything unpleasant at that time. Otherwise, it would have been terrible.

  Ivy's identity was unclear to him, but he knew that this young and beautiful girl lived in the topmost Emperor's Pavilion of Qingxia Building. Even a Qingxia guardian who came here years ago only stayed on the fifth floor. But this girl could live in one of the rooms on the very top floor. Her status must be even more noble than that of the Qingxia guardian!

  And this young talent who went to find him, it seems that his status will not be low either. For people like them, wanting to make themselves disappear is just a matter of one sentence!

  What is royal law? In this world, only power is eternal, everything else is just an illusion.

  To be honest, Qingxia City was really too big for Cangye. Every time he went down the mountain, he would head straight to the transmission array in one direction. As for other places, he didn't understand at all. And when he first went down the mountain that year, the arena where they had a decisive battle with the Qingxia disciple who offended them was also taken directly by Li Tianluo under his arm. So, even though he had been there once, Cangye still didn't know how to get there.

  Fortunately, Yu Ling knew. She was different from Cang Ye. Cang Ye rarely stayed in the Qingxia Sect, but she had spent most of her time here over the past decade. By nature, she also liked lively places more. With her innate talent and Zhao Zihui's closed-door meditation, that period of time could be said to have been completely unmanaged. So, when Cang Ye was not around, she often came to this city alone to relieve boredom.

  So for here, she is quite familiar with it already.

  Following closely behind Yu Ling, Cang Ye also took the opportunity to relax and observe his surroundings. Having lived in this city's guardian mountain for nearly four years, he still didn't know its layout. In the past, there was no time; now that there was, why not take a good look?

  With Cang Ye and Yve, they headed directly towards the very center of the city. Because the Martial Arena was right there!
