Realms In The Firmament Chapter 1462

Chapter 1462 - People of the Ye Clan; the Poor Dark Evil Spirit

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

‘Master Ling’s people?’

Ye Xiao was indicated, but he didn’t say any word but only humphed.

The Dark Evil Spirit looked in struggle now, because he saw the golden light that Ye Xiao let out.

That golden light was from a small tower.

The Golden Soul Tower!

It was the great protective weapon Ling Wuxie gave Ye Xiao back in the Land of Han-Yang as a gift.

It was a treasure of spirit!

“The Master Ling you said… Is it Ling Wuxie?” Ye Xiao sharply sensed the change of mental state of the Dark Evil Spirit. It was a drastic change. The Dark Evil Spirit was scared when he first saw the Golden Soul Tower, but then it changed. It seemed he was going to make up his mind to kill Ye Xiao again soon, so Ye Xiao talked first.

This was the best chance Ye Xiao had today to escape death. If he made any mistake, he will die!

The Dark Evil Spirit was surprised again. In his eyes, fear flashed over.

It seemed the name Ling Wuxie was powerful enough to frighten him.

How powerful was Ling Wuxie?

Ye Xiao realized that he knew too little about Ling Wuxie. All he knew about the man was based on what happened a few years earlier in the Land of Han-Yang. It was shallow and very likely wrong. He only knew that he was a cultivator in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, nothing more. Except what Ling Wuxie told him, all he knew about this man was from his own imagination!

Now as he gave it a second thought, how could a good friend of Master Bai be an ordinary figure!

He had just mentioned the name of Ling Wuxie, and the Dark Evil Spirit was already frightened so badly!

“You… Who are you?” The Dark Evil Spirit looked at Ye Xiao with confusion in his eyes.

He couldn’t understand. How could such a weak cultivator call Master Ling’s name directly?

“I am not Master Ling’s people.” Ye Xiao decided to be honest first. It lit up the Dark Evil Spirit’s eyes, as expected. However, what came next totally shocked the Dark Evil Spirit again. Ye Xiao said, “When he gave me the Golden Soul Tower, he said nothing. I don’t think I ever became his people. All in all, this tower is merely a keepsake for me.”

‘He said nothing!’

‘I am not his people!’

‘Just a keepsake for me…’

‘A keepsake…’

Well, Ye Xiao didn’t lie. When Ye Xiao helped Master Bai with the Heaven Seizing Supreme Dan, he said he needed something to resist the divine thunder strikes. Ling Wuxie wanted to protect his best friend—Master Bai, so he gave Ye Xiao the treasure of spirit, the Golden Soul Tower. As a matter of fact, Ling Wuxie did give the tower to Ye Xiao on his own. Ye Xiao didn’t brag on this point!

The Golden Soul Tower was some amazing weapon. It was made of the hearts of ninety-nine stars beyond the heavens. This treasure was now in Ye Xiao’s hands, so its true power couldn’t be brought to play, and the tower couldn’t grow as much as it could. However, because of its amazing power, it still helped Ye Xiao many times. If not that he had this great treasure with him, he would have died over a hundred times!

Such a great treasure of spirit was not only rare in the Qing-Yun Realm and the Land of Han-Yang but also rare in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. When Ling Wuxie finally completed this treasure, the whole world knew about it. People who had experience in the martial world all knew that this treasure was Ling Wuxie’s favorite treasure!

If not that this treasure was so famous, the Dark Evil Spirit wouldn’t be able to recognize it at first sight, and stopped the attack immediately. If the attack struck down, even though Ye Xiao had the Golden Soul Tower, he would get killed in a miserable way as well, because he couldn’t bring the best power of the Golden Soul Tower into play!

Now, this favorite treasure of Ling Wuxie was in the hands of another person. How could that not frighten and confuse the Dark Evil Spirit?

The Dark Evil Spirit seemed to be more and more hesitating. He kept asking,‘What is going on with this man?’

‘This guy is unbelievably weak. I can kill him by blowing a breath. He doesn’t even have a strong mind. Otherwise, he wouldn’t panic like that and humbly call me master. He said he wasn’t Master Ling’s people, yet he kept showing off Master Ling’s Golden Soul Tower… and he called it just a keepsake…’

‘What the hell is going on? Is there any secret that I don’t know?’

“Hmm… Who are you?” The Dark Evil Spirit rubbed his head. He was not only curious but also aggrieved. He was aggrieved because he actually felt nervous and anxious in front of such a weak shrimp.

It was all because of the Golden Soul Tower.

When Master Ling made the Golden Soul Tower, the entire world knew it. It was the only treasure Ling Wuxie made on his own for himself. Although when Ling Wuxie was immensely excited to take it out to show everybody the tower, people said that it was not as powerful as he expected, and the tower wouldn’t be able to grow as strong as he wished, it was still Ling Wuxie’s favorite.

Ling Wuxie was a little embarrassed when people pointed out the flaws of the Golden Soul Tower, but he told everybody that it was going to be his life treasure, which was definitely going to have a great future.

Those who were well-informed all knew that he didn’t use enough great materials on the tower, although he had used the hearts of ninety-nine stars beyond the heavens. To make this tower great, more great materials were needed. These great materials were extremely rare, and they were all difficult to find even in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Collecting the materials must be ten times even harder than making the Golden Soul Tower!

What shocked the world was that this tower was going to be Ling Wuxie’s life treasure. After all, people like Ling Wuxie had an immortal life. He didn’t use enough materials on the tower, but he had a long time to spend on the tower. If he truly spent tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years to let the tower grow—the Golden Soul Tower might still become a phenomenal success someday. Therefore, after that day, the entire Human Realm Upon Heavens remembered this Golden Soul Tower.

Unexpectedly, the Golden Soul Tower that had only appeared once in the past was now in the hands of a strange young man!

The Dark Evil Spirit was absolutely in doubt!

To answer the Dark Evil Spirit’s question, Ye Xiao took a breath in and said in a deep voice, “I am sorry. I can’t tell you.”

The Dark Evil Spirit was surprised and amused when he heard it. ‘What? Your life is in my hands, and you really dare not to answer my questions? Who gives you the courage?’

As he thought deeper, he was a bit frightened again.

‘That tower is Master Ling’s life treasure!’

The Dark Evil Spirit didn’t dare to hurt Ye Xiao before he made sure it was safe!

In the treasure of spirit, there was always a string of the soul of the person who made it. He was afraid that if he killed Ye Xiao, Master Ling would directly aim at him.

That would be a disaster for him!

The Dark Evil Spirit gave it a second thought. ‘Hmm… This isn’t easy… The Golden Soul Tower is a treasure of spirit. The entire Human Realm Upon Heavens knows it. Ling Wuxie actually gave it to this pretty boy, so there must be something special between them!’

‘This pretty boy is extremely weak. There is totally nothing good about him, except a good-looking face. What is the use of a good-looking face anyway? Can you drink it? Can you eat it? Hmm. Maybe a good-looking face is useful and I haven’t realized it. He can lure people for protection with his pretty face… He can be… that to another man. That’s right. This man is important to Ling Wuxie, but this man is too weak, so Ling Wuxie gave him the life treasure. It makes sense, doesn’t it?’

‘Of course, he wouldn’t admit that he is Ling Wuxie’s man. There is always something you can’t let others know. That’s understandable!’

Ling Wuxie’s offscreen voice sounded, “Don’t you dare! Cut the nonsense! That pretty boy is not my type! I gave him the Golden Soul Tower for another man…”

“Cough, cough, cough…” The Dark Evil Spirit thought that he had figured out the truth, so he smiled and his whiskers were shaking. His eyes rolled around, and he peacefully said, “Young Master, I know that it is a secret of you and Master Ling, so I won’t ask more about it. The martial world is full of dangers. You are new to this world. Just take care.”

He looked at the peacock egg on the floor and said, “You and me, I guess we meet because of our destiny. When I saw you for the first sight, I feel like we are good friends. Look, take the egg. Take it as a gift from me. A small gift from your big brother! Please don’t refuse it just to be polite. Hah hah hah…”

He loudly laughed and then shook his sleeves, and then dashed up and flew away.

He just left like that.

Ye Xiao was shocked. Apparently, what happened, in the end, was totally unexpected to him. As he looked at the round peacock egg before his eyes, he thought, ‘Damn that man. Look at this. He gave it to me like it was some great treasure, yet it turns out to be an egg that who knows what is the use of it.’

‘What did you say? To be polite? Polite your ass!’

‘Besides… You gave it to me as a gift? Was this egg yours anyway?’

‘Big brother? Who are you? You called yourself a big brother to me? I won’t forget this!’

He pointed up the middle finger to the sky to show the scorn on the man, and then he sat down on the floor.

‘What the hell. The Human Realm Upon Heavens is too dangerous… This is too much… I could die at any second…’ Ye Xiao thought. He was still scared by what might happen, and cold sweats came out on his forehead.

‘I guess I was wrong… I was too naive… I thought I could easily become influential because I dominated the world in the Land of Han-Yang and the Qing-Yun Realm… I thought I was not that weak in this world…’

‘It turns out… It turns out I am not just weak in this world. I am just like ash in this world…’

‘The fight of the bird and the man actually hurt me severely, and it was just the rarefaction wave of their attacks.’

‘If anybody directly attacks me, I guess I will be torn into pieces easily!’

After a while, his wounds finally healed. Ye Xiao stood up and picked up the egg. He put it into the Boundless Space, thinking maybe it could be valuable someday. He jumped out of the pit and saw how miserable the pit on the ground was, and he took a cold breath in fear. He murmured, “I guess I should stay as low as I can…”

At that moment, a voice sounded behind him with a compliment. “That is right. Little Brother, you must stay low in this world.”

Ye Xiao immediately turned around and looked over, and he saw the Dark Evil Spirit was actually standing behind him.

“You? Didn’t you already leave?” Ye Xiao was confused.

‘I saw him off! I saw him leaving! When did he come back? I didn’t sense anything at all!’

“Ahem… I did leave. You are right. Well, I gave it a second thought. You, my little brother, are a good friend to Master Ling. Now you are alone, traveling this Limitless Ocean. I am worried. I can’t stop worrying. The Limitless Ocean is a chaotic world, full of ignorant people who are blind in their heads. I won’t accept anything bad happening to you. It will hurt you, and it will get the others into big troubles as well. To be honest, I am an old friend of Master Ling. You are lucky, that I am not busy these days. I will accompany you, stay on your side when you cross this area. Besides, I was trying to hurt you, and I should do something as an apology.” The Dark Evil Spirit seemed to be quite sincere.

Ye Xiao twisted his lips.

‘There he is… He won’t be willing to give up. He talked like it is an act of apology, that he will accompany me because of his kind heart, but what truly does he want in his heart?’

Ye Xiao was having a headache now.

‘With this guy around, I am like carrying a super powerful bomb that is going to explode for any word I say wrong. I have no idea when it will explode me to pieces.’

‘Apparently, it is not an option to refuse him.’

‘He has made up his mind to stay with me. I guess there is no way to get rid of him.’

Ye Xiao pretended to be overjoyed, and he said, “That will be great! I was in an accident earlier, and my guards from my clan went away for it. Now I have lost sight of them. I was just worried about my safety, and then you showed up, Brother Dark! This is great!”

“Your guards from your clan?” The Dark Evil Spirit was surprised, so he asked, “What is your name, brother?”

“I am Ye. Ye Xiao.” Ye Xiao pretended to be so sincere to the guy and said, “Pleasure every night; laughter every night.”

“Hah hah hah hah…” The Dark Evil Spirit laughed loudly. He looked pretty straightforward but was having his secret thoughts in mind. ‘Ye? I don’t remember there is a Ye Clan in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Well, but if he isn’t from a great clan, why would Ling Wuxie make friends with him?’

He kept thinking about it for a while and then was suddenly enlightened. He was shocked. He totally lost words.

He thought of that name just like the captain in golden armor did, the name of a person who was from ancient time.

Ye Hongchen.

The story about Ye Hongchen was so famous. All high-level cultivators knew about the story. The Ye Clan, where Ye Hongchen was from had disappeared for a hundred thousand years, but the name Ye Hongchen was still like a taboo that nobody dared to speak of.

Destiny of a man was like the shadow of a tree. Ye Hongchen used to be as powerful as the five conquerors in the Human Realm Upon Heavens.

‘Is the Ye Clan, which has gone for a long time, back to the Human Realm Upon Heavens now?’

The Dark Evil Spirit thought of it and started to tremble. He couldn’t help murmuring and said, “That’s right… That’s it… A hundred thousand years… It has been a hundred thousand years now… Good… Good… That was close…”

He couldn’t help still feeling scared of what he might have done earlier.

“What?” Ye Xiao looked the man with confusion, pretended to be as innocent as a kid.

“Little brother, are you a member of the Ye Clan?” The Dark Evil Spirit didn’t sound like talking from a higher position anymore. Instead, he was trying to be as cautious as possible.

‘If this young man is truly a member of the Ye Clan, it makes sense that Ling Wuxie would give him the Golden Soul Tower. Of course, he would absolutely give him the best he has.’

“Yes, I am. My name is Ye, so I am from the Ye Clan. Am I not?” Ye Xiao nodded, speaking like a simple and honest man.

He was curious though. ‘Is there really a Ye Clan that is extremely powerful in the Human Realm Upon Heavens? The fatty never mentioned it… Why?’

The Dark Evil Spirit’s face turned green and blue, and he said, “May I ask for where you live, little brother? If you allow me, I can accompany you back home.”

Ye Xiao looked upset and said, “Brother Dark, that is really a problem. I have no idea where I live… Please don’t laugh at me. I know it is ridiculous that somebody doesn’t know where he lives… My families sent me out to be steeled in the martial world, and they didn’t leave me any spare time. A few guards grabbed me and sent me up to the clouds directly. The next moment when I realized it, I was already out here…”

Then he pretended to be enthusiastic, “I know it sounds a bit pretentious, but I am telling you the truth, brother. If you believe me, and if you want to be my friend, I will be glad to have you around for the journey later.”

The Dark Evil Spirit was surprised again. He thought, ‘As it sounds to me, this kid seems to be lying… Well, after giving a second thought of what he said, it does make sense for a clan that had been a mystery in the world for a hundred thousand years… It sounds exactly like the Ye Clan.’

As he thought so, he felt like he had grabbed a hot potato in hand.

‘If I go with this man for a while, many people will see me with him. If something happens to this guy later, the Ye Clan will definitely come to me. It is not going to be nice…’

Thinking about that, the Dark Evil Spirit was rather regretful.

‘I should just go! I did leave!’

‘Why did I come back? What was I thinking? What am I doing? Am I looking for troubles? I am definitely making troubles for myself!’

‘The peacock is gone. I don’t get to have my mount here. Why can’t I just let this man go free?’

‘Why would I come back? Now, this is great. I become somebody’s guard. No! More like a babysitter!’

The Dark Evil Spirit regretted it so much when he was on the road. From far away, two men flew over.

“Oh, Dark Evil Spirit, I thought you are a loner. Home come you are with somebody today? Wait… Is that your son?”

“No… No, no, no.” The Dark Evil Spirit shook his head hard and looked bitter like he had eaten a lot of Chinese goldthreads.

‘When somebody sees me, I will kill him if he is weak, and I will run away if he is powerful. Unluckily, I am seen by two men with big mouths, and I can’t defeat them if they fight together. I don’t think I can escape either. Besides, I have a big burden here, who are easily killed by anyone. One flick, he dies. He is more fragile than a glass vase. Maybe it won’t bother this much if he isn’t so annoyingly talkative…’

The Dark Evil Spirit had all rights to complain because Ye Xiao had been asking him all kinds of questions on the way!

Xiao Monarch was a man who was always content with things as they were. To put it in a more understandable way, he was a man who would resign himself to adversity. He figured since there was nothing he could do to change the fact, he should make good use of it to the utmost extent.

An experienced cultivator in the Human Realm Upon Heavens was right on his side, so he definitely was going to get as much information as he could from the man. It would be unacceptable for him if he didn’t get anything for the mouthful of blood he spat out.

“Brother Dark, what are the different areas in the Human Realm Upon Heavens?”

“Brother Dark, what is the most powerful force in the Limitless Ocean?”

“Brother Dark, what are the different stages in the Human Realm Upon Heavens? How do I tell who is in what level and what stage?”

“Brother Dark, what are the treasures that are common in the market in the Human Realm Upon Heavens? What are the levels of the medical materials in this world?”

“Brother Dark, what are the levels of the spiritual beasts in the Human Realm Upon Heavens?”

“Brother Dark, I am broke… I am counting on you… I think we need some money for the trip…”

The Dark Evil Spirit felt like he was more miserable than a dead man.

He believed there was nobody in this world who could be more tragic than he was!

He had found himself a hot potato, and it was a curious hot potato, an extremely talkative hot potato!

What annoyed the Dark Evil Spirit most was that Ye Xiao actually knew nothing.‘How can you not know anything?’

As Ye Xiao asked him more and more questions, the man was more and more convinced.

He was sure that this young man Ye Xiao was definitely from the Ye Clan, which had disappeared for countless years!

Only people from a clan that had been missing for a hundred thousand years knew nothing about the current world.

He was more ignorant than a moron!

The questions Ye Xiao asked were all too easy. Even the ordinary people in the Human Realm Upon Heavens knew the answers. Those were common sense that everybody had to learn to live in this world.

However, the young lord did not know anything. He didn’t have a clue of anything at all.

In fact, people who had just ascended to the Human Realm Upon Heavens didn’t know anything either, but the Dark Evil Spirit didn’t think of such possibility at all, because of the Golden Soul Tower.

It was impossible for a man who had just ascended to the Human Realm Upon Heavens to get the life treasure of the great Ling Wuxie! It was a sure thing!

The Dark Evil Spirit didn’t really believe Ye Xiao at first, and he even wanted to kill Ye Xiao. After that, he wasn’t quite sure about killing him and then believed Ye Xiao. In the end, he started to convince himself… Now he was so sure that this young man, Ye Xiao was from the Ye Clan, later generation of the great cultivator Ye Hongchen. It was beyond all doubts for him…

The change of minds was done in a short time. The Dark Evil Spirit was now a hundred percent sure of it.

Nobody could change his mind now, not even Ye Xiao, not even if Ye Xiao said, “I just happen to be named Ye. I have no connection to the Ye Clan and Ye Hongchen. I am just a weak cultivator who has just ascended to this world! That’s all!”

The Dark Evil Spirit would probably tell himself that the young lord Ye Xiao was intentionally trying to hide his real identity to stay low in this world. He might have thought, ‘He actually pretended to be a normal cultivator who has just ascended to this world! What a cautious man! What a man of a great clan!’

The Dark Evil Spirit was totally done.

Ye Xiao, whose family name was Ye!

That meant he was from the Ye Clan!

He was definitely Ye Hongchen’s later generation!

He was the later generation of the man who actually fought against the Sky King!
