Chapter 38: Changes in the Hidden Dragon Rankings

Inside the Qingyun Sect, Li Yu had just distributed the roasted lamb to the craftsmen.

Two enormous flying spirit beasts flew over from the sky.

Li Yu looked over curiously to see Ye Qiu and two other people.

As the spirit beasts landed in the courtyard, three figures jumped down from them. There was an old man, a young man, and a middle-aged man.

“Senior Brother, I trust you’ve been well since we last met!” Ye Qiu rushed over excitedly.

After that, he introduced his grandfather, Ye Tianming, and his father, Ye Guxiong.

“Master Li is truly remarkable. Nice to meet you!”

“Hmm, you young man is indeed a dragon among men!”

Ye Guxiong and Ye Tianming immediately sang praises, and Li Yu was dumbfounded.

“Master Li, I would like to represent the millions of citizens of the Great Xia Dynasty to thank you!”

“Since ancient times, heroes have always come from the young. It is the fortune of our Great Xia Dynasty to have a young and promising hero like you!”

Li Yu finally understood the issue. It seemed like Ye Qiu had told Li Yu’s story to his family.

“It’s not a big deal. Everyone is responsible for the country’s prosperity and decline. It’s not a big deal to me!” Li Yu said humbly.

Ye Tianming and Ye Guxiong looked at Li Yu with admiration.

This awareness was highly commendable!

“Oh yes, is the sect master here?” Ye Guxiong asked.

“He’s in seclusion,” replied Li Yu.

“Grandfather, father, since I’ve reached here safely. You two should hurry back!” Ye Qiu hurriedly said.

“Alright, young man, we shall meet again in the future!”

“Farewell, sir!” Li Yu cupped his hands and sent Ye Tianming and Ye Guxiong off.

After his grandfather and father left, Ye Qiu hurriedly explained, “Senior Brother, don’t worry. I know that you like to keep a low profile. You don’t want anyone to know that you killed the Wolf King and eliminated the Netherworld Demon Sect, so I’ve already instructed my grandfather and my parents not to tell anyone of your identity. They’ll surely keep this a secret!”

“Eh?” Li Yu’s lips twitched.

How could you tell that I like to keep a low profile?

However, Li Yu didn’t mind. He didn’t have any feelings for fame.

Furthermore, he didn’t want to be a hero and become the center of attention either.

That would be too tiring.

His father had led a difficult life while carrying the name of the Divine Firmament Holy Land’s Holy Son.

He could not even choose who to marry.

Li Yu did not want to live such a tiring life.

Moreover, because of the Hidden Dragon Rankings, trouble arrived endlessly.

Therefore, wretched development was still important.

“When will our master come out of seclusion?” Ye Qiu asked.

“Tonight.”

“Oh, yes, Senior Brother, I’ll give you the sect fee first!” Ye Qiu brought 1000 taels of silver and 200 spirit stones.

Even though Li Yu already possessed the enormous wealth left behind by the Netherworld Demon Sect, the payment was still a token of appreciation from his junior brother, so he accepted it graciously.

At night, Li Qingyun came out of seclusion. The Profound Life Fruit restored most of his meridians.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu had also completed the apprenticeship ceremony and officially became the third disciple of the Qingyun Sect.

That night, on the Hidden Dragon Rankings of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Ye Qiu had already taken over third place on the Hidden Dragon Rankings from Gu Cangming, and his background information had changed.

Hidden Dragon Rankings # 3: Ye Qiu

Origin: That’s Quite a Large Sect

This amendment attracted attention and alarmed many instantly.

Ye Qiu was a somewhat famous young genius in the Great Xia Dynasty. Coupled with the Hidden Dragon Rankings, he was practically known by everyone.

In a restaurant in Xilan City, a group of martial artists looked at the rankings in the night sky outside the window in surprise and discussed animatedly.

“The Ye Family’s Ye Qiu entered That’s Quite a Large Sect!”

“My word. Back then, Perfected Taiwu of the Jade Pure Dao Sect wanted to make an exception and accept him as a personal disciple, but he didn’t join. Why did he suddenly enter that small sect?”

“Yeah, this choice of his is really hard to understand!”

“Perhaps That’s Quite a Large Sect is pretty strong. After all, Li Yu is on the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings!”

“Hmm, maybe. But I feel that this choice isn’t wise!”

The Elder of the Jade Pure Dao Sect’s Hall of Justice, Perfected Taiwu, looked at the Hidden Dragon Rankings in disappointment.

He exclaimed somewhat disconsolately, “How could Ye Qiu join That’s Quite a Large Sect! I was thinking of a way to take him under my wing through our sect recruitment convention!”

In the Eastern Palace, Murong Xingqiao also saw the changes in the Heavenly Dao Rankings. He couldn’t help but smile and say, “Ye Qiu is an interesting one!”

At the same time, far away in the Tai Prefecture, Yi Caidie was leaning against the window of her room. Her hand supported her cheek while her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity. “I wonder what kind of interesting things would happen between Ye Qiu and Li Yu!”

“Does Ye Qiu really think that ‘That’s Quite a Large Sect’ is really a large sect?” The third prince, Murong Taisheng, had a mocking look on his face. “But this is good. I’ll find a chance to eliminate these two brats in one go!”

The people from the various noble families were also shocked. They didn’t understand Ye Qiu’s choice.

Although Ye Qiu’s talent was outstanding, resources were also essential besides talent and hard work in the path of cultivation.

That’s Quite a large sect was only a little Daoist temple.

From the shabby appearance of the sect and Li Yu’s greedy nature, one could tell how poor this Daoist temple was.

If Li Yu could become the first on the Hidden Dragon Rankings, he had probably emptied anything the small Daoist temple could offer.

If Ye Qiu went there, where would he find the resources to support his cultivation?

Any sect in the Great Xia Dynasty would be better than that small Daoist temple.

“What is Ye Qiu thinking?” Zhu Xiaotian looked at the golden scroll list in the night sky and couldn’t understand.

Even if Li Yu topped the Hidden Dragon Rankings, that didn’t mean that his sect was the best.

Li Yu was an anomaly that could not be replicated.

“Does Ye Qiu seriously think that he can become Li Yu just by entering that small Daoist temple? What a joke!” Zhu Xiaotian sneered.

“Forget it. Why should I think about his own issues?!” Zhu Xiaotian shook his head. He turned around and returned to the Immortal Seeking Pavilion to enter seclusion.

The night passed uneventfully.

Early next morning, Zhu Xiaotian arrived at Nan’an City and went to the Eastern Palace to pay his respects to Crown Prince Murong Xingqiao.

“Is His Majesty’s health getting better?” Zhu Xiaotian asked.

“Sigh, each day is worse than the last. He did seem much better when he heard about the Wolf King’s death and the Netherworld Demon Sect’s doom. He could even get out of bed and walk around. But today, He’s bedridden again!” Murong Xingqiao sighed and said.

She actually hoped that her father could recover and live for a few more decades.

After all, she was not fond of the throne.

If not for her mother, she would not be willing to disguise herself as a man and become the crown prince everyone knew.

“I believe heaven helps those who are worthy, like His Majesty. Right, Your Highness, this is the Heavenly Vein Flower that my master found in the Netherworld Demon Sect after destroying it. It’s said to have a great suppressive effect on Your Majesty’s curse poison. I hope it can be of some help to Your Majesty’s illness!”

Zhu Xiaotian took out a spirit plant from his storage magic treasure and handed it to Murong Xingqiao.

“That mysterious expert is your master?” Murong Xingqiao looked at Zhu Xiaotian in shock.
