C619 026 】 Punishment
Breaking through to the small star realm was relatively easy. Although it would still take a year or more for an ordinary Saint Ruler to break through to the next realm, Ye Han was far more powerful than a normal Saint Ruler under the combined effects of the Heaven Swallowing Art.
In addition, when Ye Han first came out of seclusion, his strength was already around the level of a 2-star Saint Ruler. Thus, it was very normal for him to reach the peak after half a year.
However, breaking through between the star levels was extremely difficult, especially when compared to being a Saint Ruler.
For an ordinary Saint Ruler, ten years would be more than enough time. Even if Ye Han cultivated an abnormal cultivation method, he would still need to go into closed-door seclusion for at least half a year, or even close to a year.
Now, with the Jadeite fruit, once consumed and refined, it would probably take more than a month to smoothly break through to the Three-Star Holy King Stage, saving around ten months or so.
Ten months, by that time, he'd probably already be at the bottleneck of breaking through to 4-star.
Before the age of 30, this was a golden sector in the rapid development of strength. In this age range, the more time was saved, the further one would go in the future.
Suddenly, Ye Han thought of the Ma Family Chamber of Commerce's ability to pry information, and could not help but ask: "Shuling, about the Profound Sect, has your Ma Family branch's Chamber of Commerce been able to detect them yet?"
"This …"
Ma Shuling thought for a moment and said hesitatingly, "It's certain that we won't be able to get inside information. However, it's quite common for there to be some information that's spread outside. We can actually get it."
Although he was slightly disappointed, Ye Han understood that Ma Family was too weak in the Floating Cloud Empire. It was already not bad to be able to reach such a degree, even if one could only detect and estimate that Floating Cloud Empire was something that anyone who possessed a Saint Ruler would know.
But even so, it was still better than having Ye Han's two eyes covered in black.
Ye Han immediately said: "I want you to investigate the Profound Sect's Zi Wan. Zi Wan is of Mysterious Maiden's physique and should be the focus of attention of many experts in the Floating Cloud Empire. I estimate that you all should be able to obtain quite a bit of information."
Mysterious Maiden's Physique?
Ma Shuling was still young, so she didn't know what Mysterious Maiden's physique meant. However, she nodded in agreement as she knew that Mysterious Maiden's physique was pretty strong. A few days later, Ma Shuling found out about Mysterious Maiden's cold physique and was overwhelmed with shock, especially after knowing the relationship between Zi Wan and Ye Han.
Two perverts working together, in the future …
Fortunately, she had secretly formed an alliance with Ye Han in place of Ma Family. Ma Shuling had rejoiced at her decision more than once, and of course, this was a matter of a few days later. The current Ma Shuling, with a head full of doubts, went to inform the people below to investigate.
"..."
Within the current Xing Family, the Xing Family Ancestor and the Eighth Star Saint Lord were saying to the middle-aged man below: "Heavenly Energy, tomorrow's young master Ma Family will come, when the time comes you can go and greet him."
If it was the past, Xing Family Ancestor would definitely personally welcome him. But now, he had merely instructed his eldest son who had reached Four-Star Holy King.
Don't forget, Butler Yu was in the Seven-Star Holy Lord Stage, so it could be seen how perfunctory Xing Family were to one's Ma Family.
Otherwise, at the very least, they would need to be received by Seven-Star Holy Lord Stage experts.
"This... It's not good, even though the Ma Family has declined, there are quite a few of them, and currently, the Ren Family Masters are also at the Half-Step Holy King Stage level. "
Xing Tian Li frowned as he replied:
The Xing Family Ancestor curled his lips and said: "Yumeng will soon become the wife of the Wu Family's Young Patriarch, and in the future, Madam Wu Family will continue to decline, maybe even continue to decline. She isn't worthy of our serious treatment, so tell Yumeng, just let that Young Master Ma Family drop his heart tomorrow, how can he be worthy of us, Yumeng!"
No matter what happened in the world, there was nothing worse than this. The Ma Family from before was not any worse than the Wu Family, and even if it fell in the end, it still did not know what Wu Family it was …
"..."
On the second day, only four people came to Ma Family: Ye Han, Ma Jieyu, Ma Shuling, and Butler Yu.
Butler Yu's face did not look good, because the one leading them to the Wu Family Hall was actually just Nine-Star Purple Jade's servant. This was simply an insult!
Ma Jieyu also had a sullen face along the way.
Soon, the four arrived at the main hall.2
"Seniors, the Patriarch is already waiting for you in the hall. I will take my leave."
The servant said perfunctorily, without caring that the four of them did not respond, he left. Butler Yu was so angry that he almost could not help but destroy this person.
"I never thought that Xing Family would be like this … I was really blind back then! "
Ma Jieyu gritted his teeth as a cold light flashed in his eyes. This was something he would never see before.
Ye Han naturally noticed it and thought, "If it wasn't for that experience on the road, I'm afraid Ma Jieyu would be looking at Shuling and Butler Yu with fear and grievance. Now, everything is gone. He has learnt to place everything on himself."
As the four of them entered the hall, Xing Tian Li immediately chuckled and waved his hands at the head of the table, "The four of you, please sit!"
This caused Ma Jieyu's expression to darken once again. He didn't even get up to greet them. Thinking back, he really was …
Butler Yu said, "Patriarch Xing Family, I wonder if old patriarch Xing …"
"Hehe, Father is cultivating right now and doesn't have the time to come. Butler Yu still needs to take more responsibility!"
Xing Tian Li laughed as he spoke, not moving at all, it was extremely fake. Xing Tian Li originally didn't plan on doing this, but Xing Tian Li was worried that Ma Jieyu would shamelessly lie to them, so he decided to show off.
When Butler Yu heard this, he knew that it wasn't because he didn't have time. He didn't want to see them at all, so his expression turned ugly.
Ma Jieyu clapped his hands fiercely, causing Xing Tian Li to immediately turn his head to look at Ma Jieyu. He was immediately stunned. The Ma Jieyu in his memory seemed to be … Different?
Ma Jieyu suddenly said: "Xing Family Master, I came here for a matter."
In the past, Ma Jieyu had always addressed him as uncle Xing. Now, he addressed him as clan head.
Judging from his understanding of Ma Jieyu, it shouldn't be like this, it should be with an awkward expression as he called out "Uncle". Although Xing Tian Li also planned to distance himself from Ma Family, this kind of tone was perfect, but Xing Tian Li was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had missed something.
However, hearing Ma Jieyu say that he had something to do, he quickly suppressed the doubts in his heart. He thought to himself: "I probably want to fulfill the engagement. No, I must refuse it."
Just as Xing Tian Li was about to speak, Ma Jieyu suddenly said, "After thinking about it, when I was young, the engagement I made was too hasty, so I decided to cancel that hasty engagement!"
"Hehe, the marriage contract …" What? Are you going to lift it? "
Xing Tian Li was about to retort, when he suddenly realized that Ma Jieyu was talking about cancelling the engagement. This caused Xing Tian Li to be stunned. This progress was way too smooth. He hadn't even made a show of refusing!
"..."
Third!
