Chapter 40 Ch 40: Ye Lihua’s Worry
“You have guts, kid!”
A strange smile appeared on Yu Rong’s face. Then she pointed at Ye Xiao and a ray of light directly shot into his head. The next moment, Ye Xiao fell down and immediately lost his consciousness.
“Junior sister, what are you doing?”
Yu Hao looked at Yu Rong and asked. He was not worried about Ye Xiao, for he was fully aware of Ye Xiao’s importance. After all, among billions of contenders till now, only Ye Xiao was the one with traces of Chaos’s Origin in his body and soul. He was most likely the person they were waiting for countless years.
Yu Rong will definitely not harm such a person.
“I think that kid is going to suffer a lot!” Yu Feng smiled and continued to say: “Send him to me for the trial to obtain the Second Key. I will be waiting!”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and disappeared.
Now, only Yu Hao and Yu Rong as well as unconscious Ye Xiao were left.
Yu Rong looked into Yu Hao’s eyes, causing Yu Hao to subconsciously retreat. Yu Rong snorted and said: “Coward!”
Then she spoke: “If he is really the destined one, then it will not be long before we will be together!”
As she said this, a pretty smile appeared on her face. Yu Hao, on the other hand, smiled bitterly. He said: “I will definitely not go back on my words. Since I promised to be with you after the destined one appears, I WILL BE WITH YOU!”
“But… What are you planning to do?”
Yu Rong looked at unconscious Ye Xiao and smiled, saying: “He is lacking in many ways. I’m gonna train him!”
“Train him?” Yu Hao looked at Ye Xiao and shook his head, muttering: “Boy, you are gonna experience hell. Be prepared now!”
“You should inform his parents about his situation so that they should not be worried about his disappearance!” Yu Rong said and disappeared along with Ye Xiao’s unconscious body.
Yu Hao sighed. Then he waved his hand and a water screen appeared in front of him that projected the scene outside.
…..
Outside the Golden Tower, Ye Lihua was waiting with a few maids and her mother-in-law as well as her aunt, Ye Moling.
“It has already been a week since he entered the Golden Tower. Why has he not come back? It should not have taken more than two days to complete trials of the First Floor. Why is he not out yet?” Ye Moling asked her aunt worriedly.
Ye Moling was also extremely worried, but if she showed her worries, Ye Lihua will break. Thus, she consoled Ye Lihua, “Don’t worry about him. Nothing will happen to Xiaolong. You should know that Xiaolong has the Blessing of Morning Stars. How could something happen to a person with the blessing of a land that easily?”
Ye Lihua nodded her head but her heart calmed down a little. But the worry in her eyes was not lessened at all.
Ye Moling can only sigh upon seeing Ye Lihua like this.
But Ye Xiao was really making them worry for him. They have no idea what he has been doing inside the Golden Tower for an entire week.
They will definitely not believe that Ye Xiao could clear the trial of the Second Floor with his strength. In their eyes, Ye Xiao could at most pass the trial of the First Floor. And he should have come out by now with the reward in his hand.
But he has yet to come out.
If it was possible, they would have entered the tower to bring him out. However, the Golden Tower was very special.
Two and more people could never meet each other inside the tower. It is as if each of them will be teleported to a secret space in order to complete the trial.
This is also the reason why they have yet to enter the tower to look for their son and grandson. 𝒃𝙚𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝙢
On the other hand, Ling Wei Long, Ling Cheng, and others who entered the Tomb of Green Flame Emperor have yet to come out as well.
No one knows how long it will take them to explore the tomb and return.
Their absence made these women more worried in their hearts, for they does not have the support of their husbands to make them stronger and more patient.
It was at this moment, for the very first time, the Golden Tower shone with resplendent light.
“What happened?”
“Why is the Golden Tower shining brightly?”
“This has never happened before!”
Ye Lihua, Ye Moling, and all the maids were immediately alerted. They have been in the Ye Family for many years but had never seen the Golden Tower shining this brightly.
Looks like something must have happened inside.
But… Ye Xiao was also inside the tower.
Did something bad happen to Ye Xiao?
The more they thought, the more anxious they became. They were already worried, but the sudden change in the Golden Tower boosted their worries and caused them to become more anxious.
The light on the golden tower disappeared not long after.
Ye Lihua and Ye Molong were shocked to discover a person coming out of the Golden Tower. They have never seen this person before, and neither did they saw him ever entering the tower.
Not to let these women misunderstand him, Ye Hao said: “Don’t worry ladies, I am the spirit of Golden Tower. I have come to inform you of something very important!”
“What?”
“Spirit of the Golden Tower?”
All ladies were shocked to hear him. It is because they never thought that the Golden Tower also has spirit.
“Yes! Otherwise, why do you think everyone who enters the tower has to go through a trial to climb? Do you think the trial was processing without anyone’s controlling them?” Yu Hao asked as if it was too obvious. He also acted in a way that everyone immediately started seeing him as the Spirit of the Golden Tower, completely unaware of the fact that he was not the spirit of the Golden Tower, instead, he could be said to be the spirit of a Land who escaped the rule of Chaos and become what he is today!
“Then… Then… How is my son, Xiaolong?” Ye Lihua hurriedly asked. She wanted to know about Ye Xiao’s situation really badly.
“I am here to tell you about him!” Yu Hao smiled and continued to speak: “You should know that the Golden Tower was given to the ancestor of the Ye Family for lifesaving grace.”
This was a known fact, so everyone nodded their heads.
Seeing everyone nodding, Yu Hao continued: “Actually, even that person only obtained the Golden Tower from a ruin. Let me tell you about the reason behind Golden Tower’s existence.”
“The Golden Tower was created by an expert called Yu Long, with the support of his three apprentice brothers and sisters named Yu Feng, Yu Hao, and Yu Rong. The purpose of its existence is to find a successor.”
“And your son is the most talented I have ever seen. He is currently receiving the inheritance of a very strong person. The inheritance of that strong person is divided into a few parts. To obtain each part, he has to go through a trial. So, it might take him a few years to come out. I am here to tell you not to worry about him. You all should go and live your life as you have always done. He will come back to you in a few years!”
“A few years to receive just an inheritance? What kind of inheritance is he receiving?” Ye Lihua could not help but ask. The worries in her eyes started to fade now that she finally heard about her son. Ye Moling also heaved a sigh of relief.
Yu Hao shook his head, saying: “I can’t tell you about that. When you meet your son again, ask him yourself. I have said everything I was here for, I’ll be going now!”
As he said, he stepped inside the tower again. But before he completely disappeared, he halted and turned back to look at Ye Lihua and Ye Moling before saying: “The purpose of Golden Tower’s existence has been completed. The Golden Tower will cease to exist as of now!”
With that, he disappeared completely. And along with his disappearance, the Golden Tower also started crumbling rapidly. It did not take long for the Golden Tower to be completely destroyed.
Just as Yu Hao said, the purpose of Golden Tower’s existence was achieved so there was no need for it to exist anymore.
Everyone was shocked by the sudden destruction of the Golden Tower. Ye Lihua’s eyes flickered with light and she hurriedly asked: “Aunt, the Golden Tower is destroyed. Where is Xiaolong? How will he come back?”
Ye Moling took a deep breath. Her experience was greater than Ye Lihua’s. She calmed down, thought for a while, and soon come up with an answer. She said: “Lihua, calm down. You remember right, everyone person has to go through a trial upon entering the Golden Tower. And the trial is held in a secret space every time.”
“I think, Xiaolong must be one of those secret spaces, going through trials and receiving the inheritance. After completely receiving the inheritance, he will definitely come back. We just have to wait for him a few years!”
