Chapter 42 - Uneasiness (2/2)

There was still no news from Gu Hai.

Just as he got off work, Ye Xiao’s cell phone rang.

It was not Gu Hai, but Qin Yuyan.

She had borrowed books many times before, so the two of them had a way to contact each other.

“Hello.”

Ye Xiao picked up the phone, and Qin Yuyan immediately said,

“Hello, Ye Xiao, are you off work?”

“I just got off work. What’s the matter?”

“Nothing much. Wanwan asked me to ask if Gu Hai has called you in the past two days.”

“No. Has he not contacted Wanwan?”

“No.”

“What did the garrison team say?”

“The garrison team said that they entered deep into the mountains to fight, and the signal was bad, so they couldn’t be contacted for the time being. However, the garrison team has already sent a second wave of troops for a search.”

“It shouldn’t be a big deal. Tell Wanwan not to worry too much. She’s still pregnant, and her health is more important.”

“Mm. I’ll be here with her tonight. If it’s convenient for you, can you give me a few books? Anything about the saber technique.”

“I have some matters to attend to temporarily, but I’ll get Huan Liuli to bring them over for you. She knows the way to the Gu Hai residence.”

“Then thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

After hanging up the call, Ye Xiao sighed slightly. He found a few books related to saber techniques and got Huan Liuli to send them over.

He returned home and began his closed-door cultivation.

He had a vague feeling that he was about to advance.

It had not been long since his last advancement. However, it did not take long for a grandmaster to enter the great sect and for a great sect to enter the divine sect.

All he needed to advance was an opportunity!

The first two grades had already caused him to accumulate enough spiritual energy in his body.

The difference between the third and fourth grades was no longer a difference in quantity but in quality.

If he found an opportunity, he could easily enter the great sect.

That opportunity was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

How many grandmasters were there in the world? How many became great grandmasters?

If a grandmaster was one in ten thousand…

Then a great grandmaster was one in a million!

To be able to produce a great grandmaster out of a hundred grandmasters was already quite remarkable.

In Jianghai city, there were only three grandmasters and no great grandmasters.

Unfortunately… After cultivating for half a day, Ye Xiao still did not get any results even at midnight.

‘Is it not happening anytime soon?’

Ye Xiao could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

After all, it was a great sect, and it was not so easy to cultivate it.

If it could be reached so easily, it would not be called the great sect.

It was also Ye Xiao, whose character was more nonchalant. If it were another person, they would probably be anxious for quick success and instant benefits and would have long been on fire.

Ye Xiao was open-minded.

It was useless to be anxious.

Huan Liuli had already returned and was lying on the sofa sleeping. Ye Xiao shook his head and was also prepared to lie down to rest when the phone screen suddenly lit up.

It was a message from Gu Hai.

Ye Xiao opened the message and his expression could not help but become a little solemn.

“Old Ye, I might not be able to return. We’ve been ambushed. There are too many of them.

“Don’t tell Wanwan.

“I know that it’s selfish of me to send you this message now, but I really can’t think of anyone else other than you, my good friend.

“If I really can’t return, I’ll have to trouble you to help me look after my parents. I’m an only child and there’s no one to take care of them.

“As for Wanwan… You tell her not to keep the child. If she does, her life will be over. What man would want her with the baggage of a child?

“As for my pension, the garrison should give it to my family directly. You don’t have to spend money. Just go and see them on a normal day.

“I don’t know what else to say. There’s no time.. They’re comi @% & amp;% & amp;%”
