Chapter 155: Flying Ship!
Ye Xiao looked at Tong Nian speechlessly. Before this, he never thought that he will be helpless against a girl whom he took her as an attendant of the Treasure Pavilion. But who would have thought that this girl was actually the granddaughter of the owner of the Treasure Pavilion?
What was more was that this pair of grandfather and granddaughter actually knows his master.
Now that he thought about it, he looked at Tong Nian carefully and was surprised to find out that he can not see through the cultivation. It is needed to know that her grandfather was someone who owns a branch of Treasure Pavilion. He definitely is at the very least as powerful as his master. It means, her grandfather was at the very least a Martial Emperor Realm martial artist.
As her granddaughter, how could she not have any cultivation base?
Then to describe this situation, only two reasons appeared in his mind. One is that she is hiding her cultivation base with the help of a secret skill that she has cultivated. And the second reason was that her cultivation base is actually much more than what he can currently see through with his current strength.
Ye Xiao thought that the second reason was something that fit Tong Nian perfectly.
She has a powerful grandfather, how could she not has any cultivation base.
"What happened? Will you answer me or not? If you don"t want to answer me, it is ok. It is not like I have to know why your cultivation has increased by this much in a very short amount of time. It is just that I was curious seeing your cultivation that I asked!" Tong Nian said and stood up.
She wanted to leave and it could be seen that she was slightly unhappy with Ye Xiao because he did not tell her the reason why his cultivation increased by a major and two minor stages in just one month.
Before this, Ye Xiao never thought that he will encounter this type of situation. He also never thought that he would feel bad if he did not tell Tong Nian anything but right now, he really was feeling bad.
Why?
He does not know the answer, why?
He only felt that the pose of Tong Nian"s face was too innocent and cute. He even wanted to laugh at this moment after seeing how Tong Nian was behaving.
She was behaving like a little kid who did not get chocolate from his parents and started to pretend to be angry so that his parents would give him what he wants.
Ye Xiao laughed and said, "Big sis Nian, it is not like I don"t want to tell you. I was just thinking, now that I am already five days late, and everyone has already left, how will I go to the Grand Xia Empire?"
"As for the answer to your question, I just encounter a great opportunity one month ago when I entered the Cloudsmoke Forest which helped me breaking through to the Third Stage of the Martial King Realm from the Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm."
"Since I was busy cultivating and breaking through in my cultivation, I didn"t feel the flow of time, thus getting late."
When Tong Nian heard this, she also nodded her head. In her opinion, there was no other reason for Ye Xiao to arrive here late except for the reason he gave her.
She looked at Ye Xiao and said, "you don"t have to worry about how you will go to the Grand Xia Empire. I and my grandfather were waiting for you all this time. We are also going to the Grand Xia Empire and you are going to come with us. There is no room of discussion in this matter!"
She said as if she was ordering but one could easily tell that she was just pretending, and was trying her best to pretend and not found out by Ye Xiao. But her expression deceived her.
Ye Xiao did not know what to say. Just to not laugh after seeing the expression on Tong Nian"s face, he started to look in a different direction.
"Big sis Nian, why will I even refuse if you and your grandfather can lead me to the Grand Xia Empire? In fact, I will thank you in advance!" Ye Xiao smiled and said.
"Ok then, we will depart for the Grand Xia Empire in the evening. Till then, if you have anything to do, just do it!" Tong Nian said and after saying this, she left.
There was not much time left before it will be evening. He did not go anywhere instead he sat down on the bed in that room and started to cultivate. He did not start cultivating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique because this was not the right moment.
He still circulated the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique to see if he can feel the existence of the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon or not.
To his surprise, when he circulated the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he was not only able to feel the existence of the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, he also felt two other types of extremely destructive energy within his body.
But to his disappointment, he was unable to locate either of the three. He tried many times but every time, he felt that there was something that was blocking him to feel the existence of those two types of extremely destructive energy and the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon.
He also tried to communicate with the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, but still, he didn"t gain anything.
"Ye Xiao, let"s go!" While Ye Xiao was still trying to find a way to at least locate any one of the three existence, he heard Tong Nian"s call.
He opened his eyes and walked out of the room. There he saw that Tong Nian was walking toward him excitedly.
"Is it already evening?" Ye Xiao asked Tong Nian in confusion. He once again didn"t felt the flow of time.
"Are you for real..." Tong Nian looked at Ye Xiao and could not help but ask this.
"That... I again started cultivating and so..." Ye Xiao embarra.s.singly rubbed his hair a few times.
"Let"s go, it is already the time to depart for the Grand Xia Empire!" Tong Nian nodded her head and said. Then she turned back and walked down.
Ye Xiao followed her suit. Soon, both of them arrived at the place where he registered for the compet.i.tion that was held by the Five Great Sects. When he came here for the first time, this place was filled with hundreds of peoples, but now, it was all empty.
There was a large ship standing in the middle of this field.
"This is?" Ye Xiao looked at the ship in awe. He never had seen a huge and marvellous ship like this.
"It is a Low-Grade Mystical Rank Treasure, a flying ship!" Tong Nian replied Ye Xiao as she moved forward toward the ship.
"What? A Low-Grade Mystical Rank Treasure?" Ye Xiao"s mouth was wide opened as he heard Tong Nian saying that this marvellous ship in front of him was actually a Low-Grade Mystical Rank Treasure.
"Don"t be too surprised! My grandfather even had a Middle-Grade, and a High-Grade Mystical rank Flying Ship in his hands!" Tong Nian once again exploded a bomb on Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao looked at Tong Nian in surprise and said, "You are telling me this as if these are not Mystical Rank Treasures but just an ordinary ship!"
"In my eyes, yes. This ship is just like an ordinary treasure. In the Upper Realm, these mystical rank treasures are just like junks. You can see them everywhere. On top of that, all of those treasures will at least at the High-Garde Mystical Rank or above." Tong Nian once again shot an arrow.
Ye Xiao felt that if he continues to listen to Tong Nian, he will go crazy. But again, he noticed a point from what Tong Nian told him.
"Big sis Nian, can you tell me about the Upper Realm thing that you just told me!"
When Ye Xiao asked this, Tong Nian"s steps halted for two seconds, and then she once again continues to move forward toward the Flying Ship. At this moment, she also realised that her tongue slipped.
She said while walking, "After you will come out from the Secret Realm, maybe at that time, your master will tell you!"
As she said this, she turned to look at Ye Xiao and smiled at him. Then she suddenly flew up in the air, and with an extremely fast speed, she landed on the deck of the flying ship.
"So fast!"
She was so fast that Ye Xiao only saw a blur flickering in front of his eyes and the next moment, he saw Tong Nian on the deck of the Flying Ship.
