Chapter 531: Chapter 530: Act According to One’s Capability vs. Overestimating One’s Capability
"Father-in-law, take these things and distribute them yourself." Ye Xuan flicked his fingers, sending the Storage Ring left by Zuo Yangming to Zhou Zihuang.
Zhou Zihuang took the Storage Ring and said in surprise, "These things were obtained because of you, so it is only fair that you distribute them."
Ye Xuan waved his hand and said, "I’m not interested in these things, just make sure those three Great Emperor Immortal Skills are not spread indiscriminately."
Zhou Zihuang nodded slightly, "Alright."
"Youwei, let’s go." Ye Xuan called out to Zhou Youwei and took the lead to leave, seemingly planning to give Zhou Youwei a lesson.
"I’m coming, husband." Zhou Youwei stuck out her tongue playfully, apparently picking up on the reprimand in Ye Xuan’s words.
"Father, mother, esteemed seniors, Youwei will take her leave first."
Zhou Youwei bowed to everyone.
"Go ahead." Zhou Zihuang smiled faintly.
After watching Zhou Youwei and Ye Xuan leave, the crowd gathered together, their expressions filled with excitement.
The arrival of Zuo Yangming today brought more of a pleasant surprise than anything.
At the very least, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect would no longer trouble the Emperor Immortal Sect.
For the Emperor Immortal Sect, it was a joy as grand as the New Year.
Moreover, the resources contained within this Storage Ring could only be described as terrifying.
Just those three Great Emperor Immortal Skills alone were enough to stir immense excitement.
"What happened today, let it stay among us," Zhou Zihuang said solemnly, not carried away by sheer joy but speaking in a heavy tone.
"Esteemed ancestors and seniors, please help Zihuang keep this secret well."
Zhou Zihuang bowed to the crowd.
"Of course," Ning Zongtang, Lv Tiangang, and others nodded in agreement.
This matter, indeed, must not be spread, otherwise the Emperor Immortal Sect would certainly face more enemies.
The attacks from the Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven already made them aware of the danger of possessing something valuable without the strength to protect it.
Although the Emperor Immortal Sect now had the intention to rise, they were still far from sufficient in terms of disciples.
The reason they were able to repel the alliance army of the nine major forces was more because of the surprise tactics from Ning Zongtang, Hua Yunzhang, Lv Tiangang, and others, along with Ye Xuan distributing the power of the Emperor Foundation and the Nine-Nine Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Formation to everyone, thus crushing the alliance army of the nine forces.
If it came to real combat strength, the Emperor Immortal Sect could hardly withstand a single charge from the alliance army of the nine forces, and they would all perish.
Thus, the current Emperor Immortal Sect was actually a paper tiger, its strength still far from sufficient.
If they attracted even greater trouble because of these Great Emperor Immortal Skills, it would be disastrous.
Everyone was well aware of the stakes involved and naturally they wouldn’t say anything careless.
"These three Great Emperor Immortal Skills, let Elder Ning study them first." Zhou Zihuang took out three black Divine Boxes and handed them to Ning Zongtang.
In these Divine Boxes were the three Great Emperor Immortal Skills.
After handing over the three Great Emperor Immortal Skills to Ning Zongtang, Zhou Zihuang put away the Storage Ring, planning to check it again after returning to Emperor Peak.
The rest of the crowd then gradually dispersed.
Speaking of Ye Xuan.
He returned to the Mystic Ice Cave Mansion in silence.
Upon entering the cave mansion, Ye Xuan sat squarely, while Zhou Youwei stood by his side, her head bowed, silent.
That appearance seemed like she was prepared to accept whatever Ye Xuan had to say.
Originally intending to lecture her, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Zhou Youwei’s demeanor, "What are you doing?"
Zhou Youwei kept her head lowered and didn’t speak.
Her appearance was indeed extremely endearing.
After a while, Zhou Youwei raised her head to glance at Ye Xuan, then quickly looked down again, "Husband, I’m sorry, Youwei shouldn’t have agreed immediately."
"Come here," Ye Xuan beckoned.
Zhou Youwei obediently walked over.
"Sit down." Ye Xuan patted the spot beside him.
Zhou Youwei hesitated for a moment but ultimately obediently sat next to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan collected his thoughts and said, "Do you think you were wrong?"
Zhou Youwei nodded lightly, "Wrong."
Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "No, you weren’t wrong."
Zhou Youwei looked up blankly, that flawless and exquisite face showing bewilderment.
"You were simply sticking to what you wanted to do." Ye Xuan’s tone softened.
Zhou Youwei’s lips curled into a slight smile, her eyes full of a tender smile, "You’re really good, husband."
Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile, "Let me ask you a question, and you answer me honestly."
"Okay," Zhou Youwei nodded seriously.
"If you encounter an unbeatable enemy in the future, would you choose to bide your time, becoming stronger before seeking revenge, or would you choose to fight even knowing you would die?" Ye Xuan asked.
Zhou Youwei thought seriously and said, "That depends on what the enemy has done."
"Don’t worry about what he has done; just speak what’s in your heart," Ye Xuan said.
"Act according to one’s capabilities," Zhou Youwei said.
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, "Such a pupil can be taught."
Zhou Youwei looked at Ye Xuan, puzzled, "Husband, are you saying that Youwei is still far from being a match for the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect?"
Ye Xuan scoffed, "Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect is nothing; among peers, there are very few of their disciples who can defeat you, not to mention I am here too."
Zhou Youwei was even more puzzled, "Then what does Husband mean by this question?"
Ye Xuan’s smile faded as he gazed outside the Mystic Ice Cave Mansion at the distant, boundless sky dome, and said softly, "I mean, in the future."
Suddenly, Zhou Youwei understood something, "Husband means that in the future, you might encounter some incredible beings, right?"
Ye Xuan turned his gaze back to Zhou Youwei, reached out to pinch her face, not caring whether Zhou Youwei blushed, and said with a smile, "If one day, I am no longer invincible, you must take good care of yourself."
Zhou Youwei shook her head, "No, in Youwei’s heart, Husband will always be invincible."
"Really?" Ye Xuan revealed a mischievous smile.
"Yes!" Zhou Youwei nodded.
Suddenly, Ye Xuan turned around and pinned Zhou Youwei beneath him, his eyes intensely aggressive as he looked at her, "Really?"
Zhou Youwei instinctively struggled, her face reddening to her ears, "Husband, what are you doing?!"
Ye Xuan leaned down to kiss her, then rolled off and left the Mystic Ice Cave Mansion.
Zhou Youwei was left sitting there, her face flushed and her heart pounding incessantly, yet she also felt a bit of loss.
She always felt that her husband had something on his mind.
After leaving the Mystic Ice Cave Mansion, Ye Xuan returned to his room and locked himself in.
Once back, Ye Xuan appeared calm, but his eyes carried a trace of solemnity.
In fact, the final battle with the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was far from simple.
In his calculations, the Double Emperors had definitely controlled the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, causing them to stir the clouds and suppress the Emperor Immortal Sect.
He was unsure whether there were still people from the Double Emperors inside the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.
If there were, going there would almost certainly cost him his life.
His Emperor Soul was still far from strong enough to take on the Double Emperors...
Although the Double Emperors would certainly not be there, the people they left behind were absolutely formidable!
There was another point.
The Revenge Lineage had not yet appeared.
In the situation where the Revenge Lineage had not appeared, the six month agreement with the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was actually very dangerous.
Many of Ye Xuan’s trump cards were linked with the Revenge Lineage.
"When the time comes and Youwei is with me, I must act cautiously," he thought.
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, a trace of fierce energy in his gaze.
If facing the people of the Double Emperors, he couldn’t guarantee he could suppress his killing intent.
The thing he hated most was betrayal,
especially from those closest to him.
Changxi, Mu Yun.
Their betrayal had driven Ye Xuan’s killing intent to its peak.
With a thought, Ye Xuan took out the Soul Box.
"Old pal, I need a lot of soul power," Ye Xuan said to the Soul Box.
The Soul Box remained still.
After a moment, the Soul Box slowly opened.
A stream of pure soul power slowly drifted towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan grinned, "Thanks, I’ll feed you some good stuff later."
He didn’t say anything more, silently absorbing the soul power.
The previous Heavenly Tribulation and resistance against the will of heaven had severely depleted Ye Xuan’s soul power.
During his first conversation with Zuo Yangming, he had again expended a lot of soul power.
Now, his soul power was really almost depleted.
He must recover by absorbing external soul power.
Reliant solely on natural recovery would take a very long time.
Four months’ time, without the boost of other soul power treasures, would not allow Ye Xuan to recover to his previous state.
If he went to Hengduan Mountain then, it would probably be disadvantageous.
Moreover, he had to make a trip to the Mo family beforehand.
