400 – The Real Ancestral Land

Chapter 400 – The Real Ancestral Land

Ye Qingyu's biggest goal of coming to the imperial capital this time was to enter the imperial household's ancestral temple, to find the so-called truth that his father said before he died. He had been trying to gain fame and status, including establishing the Two River Gang and so on, just to achieve this goal.

It was only that the imperial household's ancestral temple was heavily guarded, and can be called the most terrifying forbidden area of the imperial capital. From the news that he received these days, even with the most optimistic of estimates, Ye Qingyu still felt that he needed at least two years of time, in order to increase his cultivation to a level able to intrude the into the imperial household's ancestral temple.

There seemed to be no other way than forceful entry.

But now, Xing'er was saying that she would take him into the imperial household's ancestral temple?

In that instant, Ye Qingyu felt his luck was almost too good, like someone that had just dozed off was given pillows and blankets.

"Is it not surprising that you should take me, an outsider, to the imperial household's ancestral temple?" Ye Qingyu said, expressionless, trying to erase her suspicions, then went over to sit at the side of the deck, immediately changing the topic. "You still haven't told me, why are we going to the ancestral hall?"

Xing'er was staring suspiciously at Ye Qingyu with her beautiful big eyes, saying in a skeptical tone, "When you ran into the biggest matter before, I've never seen you react so strongly... Of course we have something to do at the ancestral temple. It's boring going there by myself, and since I ran into you at the station, I brought you with me and let you accompany me. I did not expect that we would run into uncle on the way..."

"I see, but as far as I know, the imperial household's ancestral temple is a forbidden territory. Outsiders are absolutely not allowed to enter, how can you take me in there?" Ye Qingyu took an indirect approach.

"You'll see." Xing'er said smugly, keeping him in suspense.

Ye Qingyu did not question further, after a brief thought he asked, "Right, from your attitude, it seems like you dislike that Uncle a lot?"

Xing'er was silent for a long moment, before she responded, "When I was young, father was always busy with cultivation and government affairs. He rarely cared about me, but Uncle was often in the imperial palace. He was very good to me, never had he refused any requests, and sometimes when I get into trouble, he would help me hide it. When the matters were too serious, he would help me talk to father and mother. He treats me better than my father does; he is the person closest to me in the palace. In my heart, I had hoped many times before that, if Uncle is my father, how good would that be..."

Ye Qingyu nodded.

He could tell that Yu Feiyan favoured Xing'er.

"Then something happened in the palace. My three older brothers suddenly fell ill and died. Father thought that there was something ominous about the palace, so told one of the four saints, [Painting Saint] Master Liu to take me away from the palace, to Youyan Pass. Uncle personally took me to Youyan Pass. I really missed him when I was in Youyan Pass, but then something happened and I began to not understand Uncle. When I returned to the capital, I heard a lot, saw a lot, and noticed a lot of things. I investigated some past events... Although I don't want to believe it, but Uncle really has changed, I... do not know how to face him, so I have been deliberately avoid him, I don't want to see him, I did not expect that...
