C785 (2/2)

Actually, this matter had always been a sickness in his heart.

In ancient times, when he had just testified to the dao, he had been very proud and arrogant.

In the end, it was Ye Xiong who showed mercy and even took him in as a lackey. This made Emperor Huang furious on the spot, and made him afraid that Ye Xiong would spread the news and ruin his reputation.

However, Ye Xiong did not reveal this matter to the public after a long while, making Emperor Huang feel that he owed Ye Xiong, so he was afraid of Ye Xiong and did not dare to face him.

Now, after suddenly finding out that Ye Xiong was still alive, the shadow in Emperor Huang's heart appeared again. This caused him to no longer dare to face Ye Xiong, afraid that Ye Xiong would bring up the past again and leave him with no place to hide his old face.

simply did not have the courage to tell Ye Ling and the others about it. After all, it was a good thing for him to lose face, so he felt ashamed about it.

Ye Ling and his grandfather, Ye Tianqiong, looked at Emperor Huang for a long time. The grandfather and grandson duo also felt very troubled.

”Senior, you can't really leave.”

”Feng Yu's matter has not been resolved, Underworld Realm's matter has not been resolved, and now that it's Xue Jiu Hun, this junior still needs Senior's great help.”

Ye Ling knew in his heart that Emperor Huang would not abandon him, so he intentionally opened his mouth to urge her to stay, revealing an innocent look and gaining Emperor Huang's sympathy.

The King of Wasteland didn't feel good about Ye Ling, but he still shook his head when he thought about his pride.

When Ye Ling saw this, his face immediately revealed a depressed look. Emperor Huang was so determined, what could he do?

Seeing that Emperor Huang wanted him to stay, he was afraid that he did not have the qualifications to do so, so at this moment, he had a difficult expression on his face.

”Senior Emperor Huang, for the sake of junior's sake, can you stay?”

”Ye Ling really needs your help. Right now, Xue Jiu Hun and Leng Wushuang are both after Ye Ling's life. If not for your help, would he really not be able to live much longer?”

Seeing that Emperor Huang was determined to leave, but she could not bear to see him sad, so she walked over to Emperor Huang with tears in her eyes. She begged Emperor Huang to keep him.

When Emperor Huang saw how Xia Yao was crying, he couldn't help but ask, especially after hearing Xia Yao's worry for Ye Ling. How could he reject the request of a weak girl?

Seeing Xia Yao appear, Ye Ling actually hesitated for a moment, and could be considered to be grateful. Xia Yao's appearance made it difficult for Emperor Huang to refuse.

Furthermore, with Xia Yao's cowardly and sorrowful look, even with Emperor Huang's sympathy, he simply could not refuse Xia Yao's request.

”Ai!”

”Forget it!” This emperor and Ye Ling have lived together happily and bitterly for so long, that I have achieved enough to treat Ye Ling as my own kin. Now that Xia Yao has come forward to plead for me to stay, if I do not agree to it, it would only make this emperor feel a little unfeeling. ”

Emperor Huang could do nothing about it, but in the end, he sighed and nodded his head to agree to Xia Yao's suggestion. In truth, he did not want to leave either, it was just that he could not let go because of the face issue.

However, when he thought about it carefully, it was actually not a big deal. In the past, he was young and frivolous, but now, he was much calmer. There was no need for him to care about the past of those youths.

Seeing that Emperor Huang had changed his mind, Ye Ling and his grandfather Ye Tianqiong's faces were filled with smiles. They had to thank Xia Yao for this matter this time, and if not for Xia Yao's tears, Emperor Huang would not change his mind at all.

… ….

The next morning.

Ye Ling, Xia Yao and the others prepared themselves.

Today was the day that Ye Ling and the rest would head to the Ye Family Patriarch's seclusion grounds. Please come out on the big day when the Ye Ancestor, 'Ye Xiong', came out.

When Ye Tianqiong appeared, Ye Ling and the rest immediately flew into the air, heading straight for the Ye Family's ancestor.

In the Ye Family's ancestral land, in the vast mountains a hundred miles away from the Ye Family.

Furthermore, this place was extremely well-hidden, and only the Ye Family Head knew of it. This was to prevent outsiders from disturbing the old ancestor's cultivation.

Under Ye Tianqiong's lead, Ye Ling and the others passed through the vast void and arrived at the southernmost area of the Southern Martial Continent, which was at the border of the continent.

The white mist filled the air, and the mist within a hundred mile radius began to move. The towering mountains and lofty peaks below could only be seen, but it was difficult to see everything below.

”My Ye Clan's ancestral grounds are beneath this Fog Sea.”

Ye Tianqiong stopped on top of the clouds, and introduced the place to Ye Ling and the others while looking at the sea of clouds below.

”This Ye Family's ancestral land is really hidden. It's actually hidden in this vast mountain range?”

Emperor Huang looked down in shock at the mountain region below. This was the most remote corner of the Southern Martial Continent, far away from the border of the Eastern Sun Continent and the Western Aurora Continent. If not for the Ye Family leading them, who would have thought that the Ye Family's ancestor would be here?

Ye Tianqiong laughed. Not only was Emperor Huang shocked, when he inherited the clan master's power, he was also surprised to learn that the patriarch lived in seclusion here.

The four of them floated in the air for a long time before they all headed down into the sea of clouds. After passing through the sea of clouds, they entered the forest.

Not long after they entered the forest, they saw a towering, humongous figure in front of them. The words on the monolith that read ”Halt!” seemed even more ordinary.

However, when they shifted their gazes behind the stone monument, they saw that there was no path in front of them. And underneath their feet, there was actually a bottomless abyss.

When Ye Ling and the others saw this, they could not help but inhale a breath of cold air. Fortunately they did not rush in, otherwise they would have already been in the abyss.

”Grandfather, are you sure that Ancestor Ye Xiong is here?”

Ye Ling's expression was strange, in front of them was a cliff. If they stepped into the abyss, where would they find the road to go?
