Chapter 640 - 640 Ye Qiu's Background
640 Ye Qiu’s Background
“This guy is quite interesting. He’s not as difficult to get along with as the rumors say.” She evaluated in her heart. In the beginning, when Hui Caiyi heard Ye Qingxuan introduce Ye Qiu, he had said all kinds of bad things. He had a bad temper, was arrogant, looked down on everyone, and liked to be a hooligan.
Therefore, she felt a little disgusted. But now that she saw him, she didn’t seem to think that Ye Qiu matched what Ye Qingxuan said at all.
Not only was he not arrogant at all, but he was also very approachable, gentle, and elegant. She didn’t know what grudge Ye Qingxuan had with Ye Qiu. Why was he belittling him?
“Fairy, please.” Ye Qiu didn’t know what Hui Caiyi was thinking. He poured a cup of tea and smiled.
“Thank you, Young Master.” Hui Caiyi nodded and lightly took the cup of tea. She took a sip and was suddenly shocked. She was more or less shocked that Ye Qiu would take out such immortal tea to entertain her. This was an extremely high level of respect for her. She couldn’t help but feel grateful.
After she drank the cup of tea, Ye Qiu continued to pour the tea in an orderly manner. Then, he slowly said, “I wonder if Fairy has any doubts? Fairy, feel free to ask. It’s my honor to be able to answer your questions.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Hui Caiyi couldn’t help but look up at Ye Qiu. Her heart trembled and she was secretly delighted. It seemed that he was really not as arrogant as Ye Qingxuan had said. Instead, he was very polite, easygoing, and carefree.
“Haha, Young Master must be joking. I was a little rash. I hope Young Master won’t blame me if I offended you.” With a sweet smile, Hui Caiyi slowed down. She looked at Ye Qingxuan, who was gritting his teeth in anger not far away, and hesitated. “I wonder where Young Master comes from? Are you from a big clan in my Nine Heavens and Ten Lands?”
This was Hui Caiyi’s first question. She wanted to confirm Ye Qiu’s identity. After all, the King’s seal on his forehead was too similar to Ye Qingxuan’s. She also knew that this question was more or less offensive, but in order to solve the mystery in her heart, she gritted her teeth and asked.
This was the first time Ye Qiu heard this question. He looked at Hui Caiyi in confusion, unable to figure out this girl’s thoughts. Why was she asking about my background? To check my household register?
Ye Qiu had nothing to hide about his background. After all, many of his enemies knew his background.
This was not a secret.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Qiu smiled faintly and said, “Haha, I came from a commoner background and cultivated all the way from the Great Desolate World. I was lucky enough to ascend and barely entered this Heaven Mending Holy Land. I’m not worthy of that big family.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Hui Caiyi’s eyes were slightly moved, as if she was very surprised. “Great Desolate?”
A trace of shock flashed across her eyes. After carefully thinking through Ye Qiu’s words, she understood Ye Qiu’s background. He came from a small world called the Great Desolate World and was an ascender.
She more or less understood about ascendants. Usually, such figures would experience various calamities and obtain the recognition of the Heavenly Dao before they could ascend to become immortals.
The price of becoming immortals was much harder than any genius in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. This was because that small world was originally barren and the laws were incomplete. It was extremely difficult to cultivate.
Ye Qiu must have experienced hundreds of battles and various hardships to be able to reach this point.
Thinking of this, Hui Caiyi was incomparably shocked, and her eyes were filled with admiration. Compared to these ascenders, their cultivation path was too smooth. They could not experience the pain of millions of people fighting for a chance of survival.
But on second thought, since Ye Qiu was an ascendant, why was the King’s seal on his forehead so similar to Ye Qingxuan?
After a while, Hui Caiyi said again, “I didn’t expect Young Master to be the legendary ascendant. I’m sorry. I still have a question in my heart. I wonder if Young Master can answer it?”
Ye Qiu smiled and didn’t say anything. He had roughly guessed Hui Caiyi’s doubts. Ever since she asked about his background, Ye Qiu had vaguely guessed it.
After a while, Ye Qiu said indifferently, “Haha, Fairy, you want to ask why the King’s seal between my eyebrows is so similar to that Young Master Ye, right?”
Ye Qiu’s words exposed the mystery. Hearing this, Hui Caiyi was also shocked. She knew that Ye Qiu had already guessed her thoughts. She couldn’t help but admire this person. Be it his mental state or shrewdness, he was very deep.
Hui Caiyi nodded and didn’t continue speaking because she knew that this question was a little rash. Therefore, if Ye Qiu wanted to answer, he would. If he didn’t, she couldn’t continue asking.
Seeing that she was so curious, Ye Qiu rolled his eyes and glanced at Ye Qingxuan not far away. He revealed a meaningful smile.
Ye Qiu was indeed quite confused about this King’s seal at first. After all, in his memory, he was not related to this so-called Immortal Ancient clan. Therefore, it was unlikely that he was a descendant of the Ye Clan.
In his memory, from wandering in the Great Desolate World to being brought to Violet Cloud Peak by Daoist Xuantian, all his past memories had nothing to do with this large clan. However, what Ye Qiu couldn’t confirm was that before he was discovered by Daoist Xuantian, he had been wandering for a long time. He didn’t keep any memories during this period.
Perhaps it was because he was too young at that time and did not remember it. In his blurry memories, there was only one fire. That fire often appeared in his dreams. However, Ye Qiu couldn’t remember how that fire came about.
He only knew that when Daoist Xuantian discovered him, he told him that there was a ferocious beast riot at the foot of the mountain. All the nearby villages had been flattened by the ferocious beasts. The mountain flames covered the entire wasteland and burned for more than a month.
Therefore, the fire in Ye Qiu’s memory should be the mountain fire caused by the beast riot.
Ye Qiu recalled in his heart and replied with a smile, “Fairy, you’re thinking too much. I’m a commoner from a humble background. I can’t climb up to that supreme clan.
“As for this King’s seal, it might be a coincidence. There are all kinds of strange things in the world. It’s predestined. It’s not good for me to follow the path of cultivation if I care too much about the past.
“The path to immortality is long. Fairy, if you want to ask about the future and the path to immortality, I might be able to answer your confusion. However, I can’t answer this question.” Ye Qiu spoke confidently and freely.
Hui Caiyi nodded silently when she heard this. It seemed like they were indeed not in contact. The little hope in her heart was shattered.
Why did she ask Ye Qiu about this? Especially when she heard that Ye Qiu came from the Great Desolate World in the lower realm. It was actually very simple. She still had fantasies in her heart and was unwilling to accept the fact that her fiancé, whom she had yet to meet, had already died in the sea of flames.
She was still hoping that at some special time, he would return again. Even if he couldn’t complete the unfinished marriage, he should cancel this marriage agreement with her and remove the last shackles in her heart.
