Chapter 88

After catching the tea water that Ye Jingyun deliberately dropped, Ye Chu didn’t mind that she had used it before. He blew to cool it down and drank it in one gulp, exclaiming, "Good tea! Thanks!"

Seeing Ye Chu drink the tea she had used, Ye Jingyun couldn’t help but blush and cursed him as a rogue in her heart, but she had no way to deal with Ye Chu.

Qing Wenting, seeing Ye Jingyun trying to cause trouble for Ye Chu, couldn’t help but smile. She thought, Ye Chu has dealt with so many people; although Ye Jingyun has her ways, she might not be able to outsmart Ye Chu.

Qing Wenting pretended not to see their confrontation and continued to ask Ye Chu, "Really can’t bring outsiders up? Will they really be thrown into a snake pit if they go up?"

"Do you think I’m lying to you?" Ye Chu rolled his eyes, "Do you really want to go up? It’s not as mysterious as you think!"

Qing Wenting rolled her eyes, thinking that of course you wouldn’t care since you’re up there. But for outsiders, it’s very tempting to climb.

"You’ve already reached the innate realm. When will you go back?" Qing Wenting finally gave up but was curious when Ye Chu would return.

Ye Chu let out a light sigh, thought for a moment, and said, "In a while."

Entering the Qingmi Mountain, one can witness its mysteries and peculiarities. But now that he had just reached the innate realm, Ye Chu needed to stabilize his realm before considering going back.

Most importantly, Ye Chu still had the General’s tomb on his mind.

"Will you stay in Yaocity all the time?" Qing Wenting asked Ye Chu, her beautiful eyes twinkling, "How about going to the Imperial City with us?"

"Go to the Imperial City?" Ye Chu was taken aback. Seeing Ye Jingyun’s dark eyes also looking at him, he smiled and said, "We’ll see! If I want to go one day, I’ll go."

"Do you dare go to the Imperial City?" Ye Jingyun suddenly laughed, "Your cousin Ji Die is in the Imperial City these days."

Ye Chu couldn’t help but think of a woman of extraordinary beauty, her face like a flower and her moon-like face. Remembering her disheveled charm, his heart couldn’t help but flutter. But thinking of how she had kicked him off the bed, Ye Chu felt extremely helpless. Although it was the previous owner’s humiliation, it would follow him for life.

"I think the focus should be on cultivation. Reaching the fifth level of the innate realm at an extremely fast speed is the right path," Ye Chu said with a sense of righteousness.

"Fifth level of the innate realm?" Qing Wenting asked in confusion, "Why must you reach this realm?"

"Because if I don’t go back when I’m at the innate realm, I must go back when I reach the fifth level of the innate realm!" Ye Chu said, "And I can apply to bring people back."

"Then hurry up and cultivate!" Qing Wenting became excited, never expecting to get such news. Being able to bring people in means she could finally see the Qingmi Mountain.

How tempting was this for her? She had long wanted to uncover the mysterious veil of the Qingmi Mountain.

Ye Jingyun and Tan Miaotong exchanged glances, finding it amusing. Who was Qing Wenting? A saintess of an ancient sect! She was extremely outstanding! Why was she so interested in a broken mountain?

What was so good about this broken mountain? Why was she so excited about it!

But no one understood Qing Wenting. Only those who had heard of the Qingmi Mountain would be infinitely yearning to know what kind of mysterious place it was.

Even the emperor of the empire wanted to see the Qingmi Mountain! That’s what the Qingmi Mountain was like!

"Do you think the fifth level of the innate realm is so easy to reach?" Ye Chu rolled his eyes. He had just reached the innate realm. There was still a great distance to the fifth level, but if he could reach this realm, Ye Chu was confident he could challenge the General’s tomb again.

With his unique constitution and the strength of the fifth level of the innate realm, even if he couldn’t succeed in the General’s tomb, the dangers would be much less.

The secrets of the General’s tomb were very attractive. When the General became the first person in the empire, far surpassing all previous empire’s strong figures, it was enough to drive people mad. It was said that obtaining the secrets of the General’s tomb could make one a world-class strong figure.

The white leopard had been inside, and Ye Chu had asked him if he knew the secrets of the General’s tomb. The white leopard told him that he had only gone to retrieve something he needed, and he didn’t know anything else. He also said that the item was only effective for his lineage.

Ye Chu chose to believe the white leopard. If so, the secrets inside were definitely not yet uncovered.

Since coming to this world, Ye Chu had always been rather lazy and had no ideals. But the only thing that forced him to work hard was to improve his strength.

Entering the circle of the Qingmi Mountain, not improving one’s strength meant death! No one wanted to die, including Ye Chu, who had already died once.

Dying once brought him to this strange place, but would dying again bring such good luck? That was clearly unrealistic!

Ye Jingyun clearly enjoyed causing trouble for Ye Chu, often contradicting and mocking him. But Ye Chu ignored her, filtering out whatever she said.

Ye Chu’s indifference represented contempt, making Ye Jingyun grit her teeth in hatred, but she had no way to deal with Ye Chu.

"Miss! Young Master Shangguan is on the opposite boat and wants to see Miss." Xiao Wei came in at some point and said to Qing Wenting, but his eyes glanced at Tan Miaotong.

Hearing this name, Tan Miaotong’s face turned red, and she looked at Qing Wenting, shaking her head.

"Hehe..." Qing Wenting giggled, "Really not let him come up? He’s been chasing us all the way, it would be too heartless to do this, right?"

"Wenting!" Tan Miaotong pouted, somewhat dissatisfied with Qing Wenting’s constant teasing.

"Okay, okay! If you don’t want to see him, then don’t! It’s not the first time you’ve refused him, so one more time doesn’t matter." Qing Wenting was about to have Xiao Wei pass the message, but Ye Jingyun interrupted.

"How can you not see him? I haven’t seen Young Master Shangguan in a long time, I miss him." Ye Jingyun giggled, "If you don’t want to see him, I do. Xiao Wei, let Young Master Shangguan come up."

"Jingyun!" Tan Miaotong pouted.

Ye Jingyun giggled, ignoring Tan Miaotong’s words, and urged Xiao Wei to invite the other party up.

Although Tan Miaotong didn’t want to see him, seeing that Ye Jingyun had already had Xiao Wei invite him up, she had no choice.

"Ye Chu! You’re also a member of the Ye family! Today, I’ll introduce you to a young man from a great family. If you can benefit from him, you might soar to great heights. I’m doing you a favor, right?" Ye Jingyun smiled at Ye Chu.

Ye Chu looked at Ye Jingyun’s dark eyes, which were twinkling with a strange smile. He couldn’t help but shiver, thinking what this woman was planning to do to him.

Qing Wenting seemed to know what Ye Chu was thinking and smiled helplessly, patting Ye Jingyun’s shoulder and saying, "Don’t say I didn’t warn you, you’ll have to bear the consequences!"

"Huh?" Ye Jingyun didn’t understand what Qing Wenting meant.

Qing Wenting giggled, not caring about Ye Jingyun and Ye Chu. She had already seen that Ye Jingyun and Ye Chu were at odds. But was Ye Chu so easy to scheme against?

Of course, for a good show, Qing Wenting was very willing, as it had nothing to do with her.

"No wonder Ye Chu said that being a bystander and watching the show is quite enjoyable. It does make sense," Qing Wenting’s beautiful eyes twinkled.
