However, Ye Qiu, who had arrived in Shenzhou City, disappeared without a trace over the next two days.
The Sword Dao Sect dispatched a large number of people to search extensively, but they could not find any trace of Ye Qiu.
Everyone was curious about where Ye Qiu had gone.
'Could it be that the Xia Emperor has fled?'
'Impossible, the Xia Emperor would never run away.'
'Based on Emperor Xia's past military record, he has never been one to desert in the face of battle.'
'The Xia Emperor must be plotting something big.'
'We await the arrival of the Xia Emperor.'
Online, countless people are eagerly anticipating it.
Some people have raised questions, but those who do are a very small minority.
Because Ye Qiu had already accumulated great prestige in the Great Xia Dynasty.
But two more days passed, and Ye Qiu still didn't react.
In contrast, the Sword Dao Sect has become extremely arrogant.
Xiao Polu personally posted online: Didn't he say he would kill all the high-ranking officials of our Sword Dynasty within three days? Four days have passed, and he's gone into hiding. What Emperor Xia, what genius, he's nothing but a coward.
These words infuriated the entire court.
However, at the same time, a considerable number of people began to develop distrust.
They had no idea why Ye Qiu was hiding. Was he really afraid?
At this time, Ye Qiu was hiding in an ordinary family's home in the suburbs of Shenzhou City.
Ye Qiu was here, comprehending the Dao of the Divine Seal.
A few days ago, Ye Qiu's battle with the Heavenly Dragon Dao Master allowed him to break through to the Divine Seal Realm and condense the Water God Seal.
But Ye Qiu doesn't only have one method; all twelve divine shadows must condense a divine seal.
During the four days of seclusion, Ye Qiu had already condensed divine seals for both the Golden Dao Divine Shadow and the Wood Dao Divine Shadow.
Once you understand one thing, you understand everything. Ye Qiu believed that it wouldn't be long before he could cultivate all twelve divine seals of the divine shadows.
At that time, the chances of defeating the Sword Dao Sect will be even greater.
"Emperor Xia, your sister is calling you for dinner."
Inside the room, a boy ran out and smiled at Ye Qiu, who was meditating.
"good."
Ye Qiu got up and went into the house.
In the kitchen, a girl dressed simply carried out the last dish and gently placed it on the dining table.
This girl has bright eyes and white teeth, and her smile is very gentle. She looks like the kind of good girl who is a virtuous wife and loving mother.
"Wang Ji, go get the rice."
"Okay." The boy named Wang Ji hurriedly went to get some rice.
The girl then fetched chopsticks and respectfully handed them to Ye Qiu with both hands.
Ye Qiu was speechless for a moment, then laughed and said, "I've told you several times, don't be so polite with me, and don't call me Emperor Xia."
"You are the Xia Emperor, how dare I overstep the rules? If people find out, they will curse me to death," the girl said softly.
"Wang Xiaoyu, if you're going to be so polite, then I'll feel bad staying here any longer. I'd better leave."
Ye Qiu made a move to leave.
Wang Xiaoyu panicked immediately and subconsciously grabbed Ye Qiu: "I... I won't call you Emperor Xia anymore, please don't go."
"Yes, yes, Xia..."
"Hmm?" Ye Qiu glared at Wang Ji.
Wang Ji shrank back and quickly changed his words: "Brother Ye, my sister said she won't call me anymore, so she definitely won't call me anymore. Don't go."
"Yes, yes, I definitely won't call him that anymore. I'll call him Brother Ye too."
Wang Xiaoyu followed up.
"That's more like it, be casual about it," Ye Qiu said.
"knew."
Wang Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After spending several days together, Wang Xiaoyu had already discovered that Emperor Xia was not as unapproachable as she had imagined.
On the contrary, Ye Qiu gave her a very gentle feeling, without any sharpness or arrogance.
During the meal, Wang Xiaoyu kept putting food on Ye Qiu's plate.
Ye Qiu also chatted with the siblings and asked them about many things.
It turns out that Wang Xiaoyu had just been admitted to Beijing North University, the highest institution of learning in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Unfortunately, before Wang Xiaoyu could go to school, she encountered the revival of spiritual energy in the world.
She had no choice but to suppress her disappointment and return home to escape the chaos with her brother.
Ye Qiu sighed. If the world hadn't changed, Wang Xiaoyu would be the darling of heaven in most people's eyes.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".
Wang Xiaoyu, during the spiritual energy revival, did not awaken a powerful talent like many others. She is beautiful, but ordinary.
In Wang Xiaoyu's view, he has a wealth of knowledge, but in today's world, he has no place to use it.
His younger brother, Wang Ji, is quite different from Wang Xiaoyu.
Wang Ji is highly talented, with a hidden vertical eye between his eyebrows, which is a talent he has awakened.
However, Wang Ji himself did not know how to use and cultivate it, and Ye Qiu had been considering whether to take him in as a disciple.
After finishing their meal, Wang Xiaoyu was about to wash the dishes, but Ye Qiu stopped her.
"Wang Ji, go wash up."
Ye Qiu stared at Wang Ji.
"Brother Ye, I don't know how."
"If you can learn to help your sister with her work and protect her, then I might consider taking you as my disciple," Ye Qiu said with a faint smile.
"Ah!" Wang Ji jumped up immediately. "Really? Brother Ye, you're not lying to me, are you?"
"Okay, okay, okay." Wang Ji was overjoyed. "I'll wash the dishes right away."
Wang Xiaoyu also got excited, and her eyes even reddened.
For my younger brother to be able to become Emperor Xia's disciple is an unparalleled honor, a source of pride for our ancestors.
After her younger brother cleared the dishes and went into the kitchen, Wang Xiaoyu immediately knelt down in front of Ye Qiu: "Emperor Xia, my brother and I are just ordinary people. We have nothing to repay you with, but we are willing to give our lives in gratitude. Whatever you ask us to do, we will do it."
"What are you talking about?" Ye Qiu pulled Wang Xiaoyu up. "I helped you, and you helped me too, didn't you? I've been eating and drinking for free at your house for a few days now, and I'll probably continue to eat and stay for free for the next few days. We're even."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoyu bit her lip slightly, about to speak, when Ye Qiu spoke first: "Wang Xiaoyu, do you want to cultivate?"
"I can't do it." Wang Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "I didn't awaken like the others, so I'm afraid I can't."
"If you want to, then you can."
"Of course I want to."
"Then why don't you and your brother become my disciples together?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile.
“This…” Wang Xiaoyu hesitated, “I would be happy for my younger brother to become my disciple, but I… I’m a little reluctant.”
"Why? Didn't you want to cultivate?" Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.
Wang Xiaoyu lowered her head, stammering, "I...I'm worried...about the future...I..."
"What's there to worry about if you become my disciple? Don't you think I'm capable enough?"
"No, no," Wang Xiaoyu hurriedly waved her hands, "Your strength is unparalleled in the world, how could I dare to look down on you? I am... I am that... what was it again..."
"Brother Ye, my sister doesn't agree to be with you because she likes you but is afraid of the generational gap."
Wang Ji, who was in the kitchen, suddenly shouted out loud.
