Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1196 - 1182: Sudden Misfortune

Central Continent.

Sumi Sword Sect.

This is one of the two great sacred lands, an affiliate sect of the Tongtian Sword Pavilion.

The founding ancestor of the Sumi Sword Sect was a disciple of the Tongtian Sword Pavilion. After mastering his skills, he left the Tongtian Sword Pavilion and established the Sumi Sword Sect above the Central Continent.

After thousands of years of development, today’s Sumi Sword Sect has also become a colossal entity.

Within the sect.

The strongest is the founding ancestor, Taoist Xumi, whose cultivation has reached the Supreme Realm Peak, only a step away from the Hundred Steps Holy Venerate Realm.

Furthermore, with the Sumi Sword Sect backed by the Tongtian Sword Pavilion.

As a result, there are very few in the Central Continent who dare to provoke them.

Ye Qiu.

Is the only son of Ye Zhan, the current sect master of the Sumi Sword Sect.

This child has an extremely astonishing talent, especially his swordsmanship talent which is considered paramount. Ye Qiu, with the Indestructible Sword Body, received favor from Taoist Xumi as soon as he was born and was taken in as a final disciple.

For decades.

Ye Qiu did not disappoint Taoist Xumi; he reached the Heavenly Venerate Realm Peak half a month ago in cultivation.

He’s only one step away from the Supreme Venerate Realm.

With his innate advantage of the Indestructible Sword Body, he is a match for true Supreme Venerate Realm experts, rivaling even the Saint Heirs in the sacred lands.

He is hailed as one of the Four Young Masters of the Central Continent.

Ye Qiu’s life has been smooth sailing, and he can even be described as the chosen child of heaven.

Until a few days ago...

Ye Qiu encountered a little chubby boy claiming to know the past thousand years and predict the coming hundred years. Out of curiosity, Ye Qiu let the chubby boy give him a divination.

And it was this divination that drastically changed Ye Qiu’s life.

Sumi Sword Sect.

In a side courtyard.

Ye Zhan looked at the despondent and gloomy Ye Qiu in front of him, frowned slightly, and said, "Qiuer, that little chubby boy might just be a charlatan playing tricks in Jianghu. Why take his words to heart?"

Ye Qiu forced a bitter smile, looked up at Ye Zhan, and said, "Father, you may not know... after extensive investigation, I’ve confirmed that the boy is indeed from the Tiance Clan in the Mysterious Realm. You should know that people from that clan are most proficient at divination. Since he said I would die within half a month, there can be no mistake..."

"This..."

Ye Zhan opened his mouth, unsure of how to console him.

How could he not know the identity of the little chubby boy?

He indeed came from the Tiance Clan!

Just then...

From outside, a figure rushed in excitedly and said joyfully, "Sect Master, young master, great news, wonderful news!"

"Hmm?"

Both men inside were startled, looking at the newcomer in confusion. Ye Zhan asked, "Lan Kai, did you find that little chubby boy?"

Lan Kai was the Deputy Sect Master of Sumi Sword Sect.

Under the gaze of the two, Lan Kai shook his head and then said, "Although I didn’t find the little chubby boy, I encountered someone else claiming to be from the Tiance Clan. I have already invited him into the sect, and he’s waiting in the hall..."

"What? Another person from the Tiance Clan?"

"Since when are the Tiance Clan people so easy to encounter?" Ye Zhan and Ye Qiu exchanged a puzzled glance.

Lan Kai said, "This is all due to the young master’s incredible fortune. The heavens knew we were looking for someone from the Tiance Clan, so they came to us!"

"Enough nonsense, quickly take me to see this expert!" Ye Qiu couldn’t contain his impatience.

The three hurried towards the hall.

Moments later. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

When they arrived in the hall, they saw a young man, dressed in a Yin Yang Garment and holding a white banner with the words ’Flawless Strategies,’ sitting solemnly in the hall.

His demeanor was mysterious and unpredictable.

"This person exudes even more of the Tiance Clan’s aura compared to that little chubby boy!" Ye Zhan nodded to himself.

Lan Kai winked at Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu nodded and stepped forward, saying, "I am Ye Qiu. May I know how to address you?"

The young man glanced at him, maintaining an aloof manner, and said, "I am a mere outsider; my name is not worth mentioning. I came this time because I have a bond with Young Master Ye, here to help you avert your crisis!"

Lan Kai winked at the two, seemingly saying: See? We didn’t mention anything about the young master’s crisis, yet he could point it out in one word, so he must have some skills!

Ye Zhan hummed, his heart already believing a bit in the young man’s identity.

Ye Qiu felt the same.

After a moment’s contemplation, he said in a deep voice, "May I know how you intend to help me avert this crisis?"

Ever since the little chubby boy predicted he would face a deadly calamity within two weeks...

In the following days...

Ye Qiu had been unable to sleep or eat!

The young man discreetly glanced at Lan Kai, closed his eyes slowly, and remained silent.

Lan Kai conveyed through a soundless message to Ye Zhan and Ye Qiu, "Sect Master, young master... I heard that people who engage in these divination arts burn their own lifespan and cultivation. We have no relations with him, the fact he proactively came to us is already a great favor. Asking him to divine without compensation might be..."

"Deputy Sect Master Lan is right, it was our oversight!" Ye Zhan realized.

Ye Qiu also spoke, "Master, if you can help me avert this calamity, I, Ye Qiu, am willing to gift you a hundred source stones..."

"A hundred source stones?"

The hand underneath the young man’s sleeve trembled slightly.

That was a hundred source stones!

He was just scheming with Lan Kai to swindle some coins, not expecting the other party to offer a reward of a hundred source stones. He was about to agree, when...

Lan Kai hurriedly interrupted, "No, no, master, don’t get it wrong, Ye Qiu means the hundred source stones are just a token for meeting you. If you can avert the calamity, we will additionally grant you a thousand source stones as a thank you!"

As he spoke.

Lan Kai secretly conveyed to Ye Zhan and Ye Qiu, "Sect Master, young master, this master is from the Tiance Clan, he couldn’t possibly be short of source stones. We must offer sufficient rewards!"

Ye Zhan felt what Lan Kai said made sense and took out one thousand one hundred source stones, placing them carefully before the young man.

The young man glanced at the source stones, his heart slightly trembling.

That was over a thousand source stones!

Priceless treasures!

He feigned nonchalance as he waved his hand slightly, appearing calm as he collected the source stones, saying deeply, "To those like us, source stones are merely external objects. However, I foresaw a bond with Young Master Ye, so be it, I’ll tell you the solution..."

Ye Qiu’s expression shifted drastically: "Thank you, Master!"

The young man nodded, calculating with his fingers, murmuring words.

Moments later.

He suddenly paused, pointing toward the northwest, and said, "You must head northwest immediately and capture the first woman you encounter for a sacrificial ritual to resolve your crisis! Remember, it must be the first woman you encounter..."

"I understand!"

"Please rest assured, Master, we know what to do now..."

Ye Qiu and his father exchanged a glance, then soared into the sky, speeding towards the northwest.

Meanwhile.

Xiao Yi and Fang Qingzhu were savoring a delicious barbecue on the deck, completely unaware of the impending disaster about to befall them...
