He Can Seal and Unseal

Qin Ruoxian's small face immediately fell.

To them, Ye Yu's action now was no different from a refusal; he had even taken out his sword.

Qin Wushuang sighed inwardly as well. It seemed he had been too hasty. Patience was a virtue, and he needed to take things one step at a time.

Watching Ye Yu walk slowly closer, Qin Wushuang took a deep breath and was about to speak when he saw Ye Yu turn his palm, actually handing the Autumn Water Sword to Qin Ruoxian.

Qin Ruoxian looked at Ye Yu with a bewildered expression, clearly not understanding what he meant.

Before going to Great Yan, Qin Ruoxian had investigated Ye Yu, but not in great detail.

For instance, Qin Ruoxian knew Ye Yu went to the Liu Manor to retrieve the Autumn Water Sword, but she didn't know the reason why Ye Yu wanted it back. She simply thought it was purely for the sword itself.

After all, no matter what, the Autumn Water Sword was the foremost sword in Great Yan, so it was only natural for Ye Yu to want it back.

Ye Yu saw Qin Ruoxian's confusion and smiled, "This sword belonged to my mother. She once asked me to give it to the person I would spend my life with."

Qin Ruoxian stared blankly at the Autumn Water Sword in Ye Yu's hand, her cheeks flushing. But the next moment, she put the sword into her storage ring and ran away.

Qin Wushuang's mouth twitched. Was this still his little devil of a daughter? Truly, a daughter grows up and leaves her parents.

Then, Qin Wushuang looked deeply at Ye Yu and smiled, "My daughter is completely smitten with you. You'll have to call me Imperial Father sooner or later."

"Uncle Qin, please don't change the subject. Is there something else?" Ye Yu asked with a smile.

"I won't hide it from you. The Nine Nether Blood Spring within Great Qin has been growing more restless lately. I want to know how to seal it," Qin Wushuang said seriously.

Ye Yu showed an expression of "as expected" upon hearing this, but then he spoke, "I can tell you the method, Uncle Qin, but I'm afraid the price might be too much for you to bear."

"Tell me first," Qin Wushuang frowned. He knew sealing the blood spring wouldn't be easy and had some psychological preparation.

Ye Yu then explained the method for sealing the Nine Nether Blood Spring. The more Qin Wushuang listened, the uglier his expression became.

"So, according to you, sealing the Nine Nether Blood Spring requires sacrificing a Heaven-grade Spiritual Root?!" After dealing with state affairs, Qin Wushuang summoned Ye Yu to inquire about the sealing method for the Nine Nether Blood Spring.

Ye Yu nodded. "At least a Heaven Spiritual Root is required. Spiritual Roots below Heaven grade cannot absorb the Nine Nether Blood Qi. Even a Heaven Spiritual Root can only maintain the seal for five years. After five years, it will erupt again."

Hearing this, Qin Wushuang's face grew even more grim.

A cultivator with a Heaven Spiritual Root was invaluable to a dynasty.

Moreover, even if a dynasty was willing to sacrifice a Heaven Spiritual Root cultivator.

Would that Heaven Spiritual Root cultivator be willing to sacrifice themselves to protect people they had no connection with?

Thinking of this, Qin Wushuang looked deeply at Ye Yu. It was this young man before him who had sacrificed his own Spiritual Root to help the Great Yan Dynasty seal the Nine Nether Blood Spring.

Yet, he had received such a tragic end.

He truly didn't know what the people of Great Yan were thinking, to be so heartless and ungrateful.

Ye Yu looked up at Qin Wushuang, whose expression was complex. As if sensing his thoughts, Ye Yu smiled faintly and then said, "However, in my opinion, Lord Qin doesn't need to worry about the Nine Nether Blood Spring problem."

"Why?" Qin Wushuang was startled and asked. The Nine Nether Blood Spring was a major threat to the various dynasties in Qingzhou.

"Because even if it's sealed, the blood spring will erupt again within a few months. Sealing it is useless," Ye Yu said calmly.

In his past life, even though he had sacrificed his Spiritual Root to seal the blood spring, an accident still occurred a few months later.

"What did you say!" Qin Wushuang suddenly stood up, looking at Ye Yu.

Qin Wushuang had no doubt about Ye Yu's words. In all of Qingzhou, no one understood the Nine Nether Blood Spring better than Ye Yu.

After all, he was the only one who had sealed the Nine Nether Blood Spring and walked out alive.

However, Ye Yu showed no intention of answering this time, rubbing his finger, a cold glint in his eyes.

Seeing that Ye Yu had no intention of answering, Qin Wushuang didn't press further. He sat back in his seat and sighed, "Then it seems we still need to make plans as soon as possible."

"No need. Just do what you need to do. Don't worry about the Nine Nether Blood Spring erupting," Ye Yu waved his hand and then looked at the confused Qin Wushuang, speaking again, "Because I am in Great Qin."

His powerful confidence made even Qin Wushuang's eyes widen. It was hard to imagine what heights this young man would reach in the future.

If this person were an enemy, it would truly make one lose sleep, but fortunately, he was his future son-in-law.

"Alright, the matters are concluded. I need to rest for a while," Ye Yu stood up and walked towards the hall. He stopped halfway.

"Lord Qin, it's best to withdraw some of the troops stationed at the Great Yan border. The blood spring there is about to erupt."

Watching Ye Yu's receding back, Qin Wushuang seemed to recall something and gasped.

Everyone had forgotten one thing.

The seal on Great Yan's Nine Nether Blood Spring was created by Ye Yu. If he could seal it, he could naturally unseal it!

Immediately, Qin Wushuang no longer hesitated. He issued several imperial decrees, ordering the stationed troops to be ready to withdraw at any time.

Upon arriving at the palace Qin Wushuang had arranged for him, Ye Yu sat down cross-legged and began to adjust the spiritual energy within his body.

According to his memories from his past life, a secret realm was about to appear in the barren lands of Qingzhou in the next few days. In his past life, due to his physical condition and various other reasons, Ye Yu had not been able to go to that secret realm.

Now, reborn, Ye Yu certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Soon, Ye Yu finished his adjustments and felt the abundant spiritual energy in his dantian. Ye Yu couldn't help but marvel at the divine nature of the small cauldron again.

Because of the Nine Nether Blood Spring, Ye Yu had lost his Spiritual Root. Now, he relied entirely on the small cauldron to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth. However, the speed at which this small cauldron absorbed spiritual energy was even faster than his former Saint Spiritual Root.

Having just recovered to the late Golden Core stage, the spiritual energy in his dantian was already enough for him to attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Having already taken the Bodhi Infant Transformation Pill, it was natural to pursue a higher quality Nascent Soul.

After all, once a cultivator successfully condenses their Nascent Soul, they should begin cultivating their techniques, converting the spiritual energy within their body into attribute-based power.

This power is far more formidable than mere spiritual energy, which is why the Nascent Soul Stage is a watershed moment for cultivators.

As he was thinking this, the small cauldron trembled. A day had passed, and it was time to open the treasure.

Immediately, Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy within his body began to converge towards the small cauldron.
