Chapter 611: 0612 Revenge Opportunity! (First Update)

"Congratulations Miss, Ye Qiu has broken through to Legendary status, and since you’ve saved his life before, he will certainly be able to help you obtain a great opportunity in the Great Emperor’s tomb."

"As long as we secure the opportunity, our Tang Family has a complete chance of rising to the most powerful ancient clan, and the patriarch will be immensely gratified."

Leaving the villa and on the road back to the ancient lands, Huan’er was chattering in Tang Surou’s ear.

Tang Surou nodded her head, Ye Qiu’s breakthrough to Legendary status had truly surprised her. In the mundane world of martial artists, it was exceedingly rare to see a young Legendary Martial Artist once in a hundred years, and even for individuals like Qian Zhen, who, despite having broken through to Legendary status, had limited paths ahead and could hardly make further breakthroughs.

However, Ye Qiu was different, his youth, being under thirty, was enough to prove his exceptional talent. Even among the many disciples of the ancient clans in the ancient lands, he was considered a genius. This matter was probably unknown to the various clans in the ancient lands. Tang Surou instructed, "Keep quiet about Ye Qiu becoming Legendary. I plan to have him enter the tomb under the identity of a disciple of our Tang Family. I believe it will catch many by surprise when the time comes."

Huan’er nodded her head like a bobblehead doll: "Hmm, Huan’er won’t tell anyone. The scions of the three great ancient clans are too arrogant, completely disregarding us martial arts clans. Many think that only Miss you, from the Tang Family, will enter the Great Emperor’s tomb, but they are unaware that Miss you have found a capable assistant."

Suddenly, Huan’er turned her small head and cautiously said, "Miss, do you think Ye Qiu could change his mind along the way? I’m afraid he might ruin your big plans. If Ye Qiu covets Miss’s opportunity, I fear..."

"You fear he might harm me?" Tang Surou asked with a light smile, then shook her head: "No, I have inquired about Ye Qiu’s character quite early on. Although he can be rather lustful at times and has his share of ambiguous relationships with women, overall, he is not the kind to commit vile atrocities."

Huan’er was still somewhat worried: "But we should always guard against others, after all, the opportunity within the Great Emperor’s tomb, even the scions of the three great ancient clans are envious, I fear..."

"If he really does that, it would just prove that I, Tang Surou, am poor at judging character..." Tang Surou sighed.

...

With the journey to the ancient lands looming, Ye Qiu had to prepare. The Great Emperor’s tomb that Tang Surou spoke of was surely the burial place of an extremely powerful being.

The Great Emperor, just hearing this title felt full of dominance. Although Ye Qiu did not know the exact realm of such a mighty figure, the fact that the scions of the ancient lands were eager to enter despite the risks suggested an exceedingly high-level warrior.

Now a Legendary Martial Artist himself, Ye Qiu knew that breaking through to a higher realm in this mundane world was a slow process, akin to water grinding stone. Moreover, there were hardly any in the martial world who could match him in combat. Even Ye Qiu felt that it was difficult to improve further or to find a worthy opponent for a duel.

Entering the Great Emperor’s tomb might not be a bad choice after all.

It would not only repay Tang Surou’s life-saving grace but also hone his strength, killing two birds with one stone.

However, he also knew that the Great Emperor’s tomb was definitely fraught with danger. When Tang Surou spoke about its perils, deep apprehension was evident in her tone. Inside, a mere Legendary Martial Artist like himself would certainly not be invincible, especially with the scions of the great ancient clans also entering. Ye Qiu would not allow those who destroyed the Du Guxi ancient clan to gain opportunities.

Ye Qiu had one intention upon entering the Great Emperor’s tomb: to foil the chances of the descendants involved in the annihilation of the Du Guxi ancient clan. Should these scions acquire the opportunity, it would only enhance the power of their clans, and Ye Qiu did not wish to face increasingly stronger adversaries. If he could annihilate these scions within the tomb, it would be the best outcome for him.

Yet, Ye Qiu harbored a concern: if he truly slew the scions of the ancient lands, it could affect the Tang clan. It seemed he had to plan strategically and act covertly.

Ye Qiu’s gaze flickered, the grand gift that Tang Surou had offered sparked his desire for revenge.

His anticipation for the opening of the Great Emperor’s tomb in three days’ time grew stronger.

To forge iron, one must be strong oneself; battling with the scions of the ancient lands required substantial strength, or one would simply be counter-killed.

Through indirect inquiries, Ye Qiu learned about the strength of the scions who would enter the Great Emperor’s tomb; the strongest seemed to have reached the later or even peak stage of Legendary status.

Compared with them, Ye Qiu was at a disadvantage in terms of realm. In the short term, he found it difficult to advance, especially since he had only recently broken through to the Legendary realm. Despite this, Ye Qiu was unwilling to shrink back when facing such powerful opponents.

Ye Qiu prepared to take stock of his strength. Even though his realm was somewhat lower, with several aces up his sleeve, he might still possess the power for a real fight.

The gap between myself and those chosen ones must lie in the difference in realms, as well as the unique methods of the various clans’ offspring.

With my strongest trump card, the dark transformation and the mysterious power of the Black Flame, I believe that I can handle any opponent.

Ye Qiu began his seclusion, bringing himself to the pinnacle of his condition.

Bai Xiong, knowing that the young master was about to enter the ancient land, was very excited, never expecting such a great gift from the heavens.

Bai Xiong wasn’t idle either, he began to refine his Tai Chi, the experiences of Tai Chi taught by Ye Qiu opened up a whole new world for him, presenting ideas he had never considered before.

Ye Qiu held nothing back, imparting all his insights from Zhang Sanfeng’s martial arts notes to Bai Xiong, hoping that this would help him achieve a breakthrough, not through the evolution of genetic potions, but by transcending realms through martial arts.

It was not a small challenge, and for Bai Xiong, it was a great one, but it also brought him a glimmer of hope.

Enhancing strength with genetic potions is ultimately a minor path, and even if one can bear the pain, it might not ensure corresponding strength. Bai Xiong understood this well. Unless technology rapidly advanced and could significantly improve genetic potions, Bai Xiong knew it would be very difficult for him to ascend to a higher level in the short term.

Master and servant practiced undisturbed in the villa, until one day when Elder Mo returned.

When Elder Mo came back, both Ye Qiu and Bai Xiong stopped their practice.

Elder Mo arrived looking travel-worn, and as soon as he entered the villa, he pulled Ye Qiu aside.

"Young Master, prepare yourself, I am going to send you into a secret tomb. As long as you enter, your strength is certain to rise once again."

Ye Qiu frowned. Could it be the Great Emperor’s tomb Elder Mo was referring to?

"This secret place opens once every thirty years and is only accessible to Legendary Martial Artists. Having broken through to the Legendary realm, the young master is more than capable of defending himself there. Once you seize the opportunity inside, the hope for revenge for the Dugu family will also greatly increase."

"Young Master?"

Seeing Ye Qiu’s strange expression, Elder Mo paused in his speech.

All Ye Qiu could do was give a wry smile and say, "Elder Mo, is this secret place you speak of the Great Emperor’s tomb?"

Elder Mo was instantly startled, his gaze sharp as a lance, "Young Master... how do you know of the Great Emperor’s tomb?"

His trip to the ancient land had cost him much effort just to secure an entry spot. Unfortunately, those families were unwilling to cooperate. However, that didn’t matter, Elder Mo decided he would sneak Ye Qiu in secretly.

Then, Ye Qiu shared Tang Surou’s invitation and explained his relationship with her. After a long while, Elder Mo finally understood. He couldn’t help but exclaim, "The heavens truly favor the young master. The Tang clan is not bad, having not participated in the destruction of the Dugu family. If the young master uses the Tang clan’s identity to enter, there’s no need for me to go through all this trouble."

Seeing Elder Mo’s sighs, Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Elder Mo, I have a question."

"Oh? Please ask, young master."

"I want to know what level of strength the Great Emperor was!"

"The Great Emperor..." Elder Mo’s gaze flickered, and he pondered for a moment.
