210: Chapter 59: Meeting at the Hot Springs (Part 3)_1 210: Chapter 59: Meeting at the Hot Springs (Part 3)_1 Ye Yinzhu naturally knew what she was referring to, nodded, and said, “Alright then.
Tomorrow it is.”
“I…I don’t think I should go.” Sura stuttered, his head bowed low.
The expression on his face appeared timid.
Xiang Luan giggled, saying, “Sura, what’s with that expression?
It seems as if going out with us two beautiful girls embarrasses you.
I used to think that Yin Zhu was the shy one, but it turns out you’re even worse.
I really suspect you’re a girl.”
Ye Yinzhu laughed and said, “Elder Sister Xiang Luan, don’t tease Sura.
Sura, e with us.
We’re all practicing hard every day, so it wouldn’t hurt to go out and relax.
Who knows?
It might even be beneficial for our cultivation.”
“I…” Sura raised his head to look at Ye Yinzhu, his eyes full of plicated emotions.
Xiang Luan said, “No more hesitating, it’s settled.
Don’t be a spoilsport.
I’ve already promised not to take you to the Northernmost Wilderness, so just treat this as an opportunity to acpany me for fun.
We’ll meet at your dormitory tomorrow morning.
We’re going back now to pack.
Let’s just play for two days.
It’s not like we have any classes anyway.
We’ll leave tomorrow and return the day after tomorrow.
A two-day hot spring trip, how wonderful!”
Having sent Xiang Luan and Haiyang off, Sura stood there in a daze, lost in his thoughts.
“Sura, what’s wrong?
Don’t you like hot springs?
Why don’t you want to go?” Ye Yinzhu patted his shoulder, asking with concern.
Sura shook his head and said, “N-No, it’s nothing.
Let’s go together then.” Going to the hot springs, actually going to the hot springs.
But, wouldn’t it be…
Just as Ye Yinzhu wanted to ask Sura why he was hesitant, there was another knock at the door.
Smiling wryly, Ye Yinzhu murmured, “This is surprising.
We usually don’t have that many visitors.
Now though, they seem to be ing in droves.” While speaking, he walked to the door, quipping playfully, “Who else is gracing us with their presence now?”
The door opened, Ye Yinzhu felt a throbbing pain on his forehead, and a disgruntled voice said, “It’s your father.”
“Eh…” Ye Yinzhu’s attention was immediately caught.
The visitor was none other than his own father, Ye Zhong.
“Dad.
You…
why are you here?” Though his forehead throbbed where Ye Zhong had knocked him, Ye Yinzhu could not hide his excitement.
This was his first time leaving the Blue Sky and Sea!
Having not seen a family member for over half a year, his father’s sudden arrival brought warmth to his heart.
He hurriedly invited Ye Zhong inside.
Ye Zhong, clad in a green warrior uniform, his black hair draped over his shoulders, didn’t look much older than Ye Yinzhu despite being in his forties.
Covered in the dust of the road, it was evident he had traveled a long distance.
The feigned anger in his eyes dissipated at the sight of his son, who appeared to have grown taller.
Ye Zhong’s gaze softened into a warm smile, and under Ye Yinzhu’s guidance, he stepped into the dormitory.
“Sura.
e here, let me introduce you.
This is my father.” The excitement in Ye Yinzhu’s eyes was unmistakable due to Ye Zhong’s arrival, and he quickly pulled Sura over.
By this point, Sura had roused himself from his shock.
He looked at Ye Zhong with surprise.
Ye Yinzhu was very much like Ye Zhong, at least six parts alike.
However, pared to his father, he was slightly thinner.
Ye Zhong was tall and broad-shouldered.
He wore a longsword on his back, and his handsome and calm face, along with his soft gaze, made him look more like Ye Yinzhu’s older brother.
“Dad, let me introduce you.
This is my roommate, Sura.
He has taken good care of me throughout the school year.”
Ye Zhong nodded at Sura and said, “Hello.
Thank you for looking after Yin Zhu.
This dormitory of yours is really something.
Milan is indeed the strongest nation on the continent.
The environment of this academy can’t be pared to any place in Acadia.”
“Hello Uncle.” Sura greeted Ye Zhong politely and grabbed a cup of water for him from the side.
Ye Zhong nodded in approval and said, “Thank you.”
Ye Yinzhu pulled up a chair and sat down opposite his father, “Dad, why did you e all the way from Acadia?
Don’t tell me you came to pick me up.
I’m grown up now, I can make my own way home.”
Ye Zhong laughed and said, “Pick you up?
You wish.
I just happened to be passing by, so I decided to e and see if you’ve been slacking off in your studies here in Milan during the school year.
Not bad, your Douqi seems to have improved somewhat.”
“Passing by?” Ye Yinzhu looked at his father in confusion.
Ye Zhong explained, “There’s a lot going on at home this year.
I’m here to carry out some errands for your Grandpa.
Your Grandpa suggested that you should just focus on studying at the academy, so you don’t need to e home this year.”
Ye Yinzhu exclaimed in surprise, “What could possibly happen to our family?
I remember you not even stepping outside once a year before!”
Ye Zhong gave a small smile, saying, “You’ll understand when you return next year.
It’s a secret for now, your grandfather doesn’t want you to know.”
A bit impatient, Ye Yinzhu asked, “Are grandpa, Grandpa Qin, and mom doing well?”
Ye Zhong nodded, saying, “They’re all doing very well, your mother misses you dearly.
If she wasn’t also busy with matters, she might have e with me to see you this time.
You’ve grown taller, seem to have bee stronger as well.
The food here must be good.
That puts my mind at ease.”
At that moment, Sura suddenly said, “Uncle, chat with Yinzhu.
I’ll go out and buy some things.
You can have dinner here tonight.” After saying that, he bowed to Ye Zhong again before leaving the dormitory.
Ye Zhong gave a smile, saying, “This boy is very sensible!
You’re lucky to have found such a good roommate.”
Yinzhu agreed wholeheartedly, nodding while saying, “Yes!
Sura practically does everything in the dorm by himself.
He’s really a good person.”
Ye Zhong said, “After you left, your two grandfathers did something major, you might have heard.
Under the leadership of your two grandfathers, Acadia, with weary forces, resisted the oning hundred-thousand-strong army from the Bo Pang Kingdom, practically annihilating the enemy, their losses heavy.
They also paid a significant amount of money to ransom back their prisoners of war.
As a result, the national strength of Acadia improved somewhat.
Your two grandfathers have bee popular figures in Acadia.
But it also means that the risks have increased.
This is why they do not want you to return for now.”
“Dad, I’ve grown up now, isn’t it time that you tell me about our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans?” Ye Yinzhu suddenly said.
Ye Zhong looked at his son with surprise, “Why the sudden mention of this?
Did you find out something?”
Ye Yinzhu nodded, saying, “At the Milan Magic Martial Academy, we have two disciples from the Hua Sect.
Though they didn’t tell me, I can guess some things from their indirect ments.
More importantly, I learned some of the history of the continent from other places.
Dad, didn’t our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans originate from the Eastern Dragon Empire?”
Ye Zhong’s face changed dramatically in an instant, his figure flashing to the door in a blink.
He opened the dormitory door and looked outside, a deep yellow Douqi radiating from his body, elevating his senses to their limit.
After a long pause, once he confirmed that there was nothing to be worried about, he shut the dormitory door and returned to the room.
He looked at Ye Yinzhu somberly, transmitting to him, “Don’t ever mention the words ‘Eastern Dragon Empire’ anywhere.”
He conversed with his father using transmissions, “Does this mean it’s true?”
Ye Zhong slowly nodded, “Where did you hear about the Eastern Dragon Empire?
Those who know about this history on the continent are extremely few.”
“Zi told me.” Toward his father, there was naturally no reason for Ye Yinzhu to hide anything.
He explained the conversation they’d had that night briefly, laying out Zi’s origins and aims clearly for his father to hear.
Ye Zhong listened very seriously, not interjecting with a single word.
His expression only grew more serious.
“…the repetition of the word ‘Dong Long’ reminded me of our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans, and Zi speculated we were related to the Eastern Dragon Empire.”
Ye Zhong looked at his son, a sparkle in his eyes, “Yinzhu, you’ve indeed grown up, no longer that naive boy who wouldn’t think about these issues.
It looks like Uncle Qin sending you to Milan for exposure was not a mistake, indeed, it accelerated your growth.
And you should indeed know about our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans’ origins.”
After saying this, he pondered for a moment before continuing the telepathic munication, “Generally speaking, Zi was not wrong.
Our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans are indeed direct descendants of the Eastern Dragon Empire, and are of the purest Eastern Dragon lineage.
Descendants of the dragon.
However, there are many things that even Zi does not know.
The original collision of continents was not any sort of divine punishment.
At the time, the civilization of our Eastern Dragon Empire was far superior to this continent, you could take the West Dragon Empire as a substitute.
According to the scholars of the Eastern Dragon Empire, the collision of continents was due to the drifting of the continental plates, produced over a long period due to various factors.
It’s just that when the collision happened, the tides of the great sea experienced violent fluctuations, exacerbating the collision.
Otherwise, the consequences wouldn’t have been so severe.
In the eyes of Zi’s ancestors, perhaps we collided with them, but in fact, it cannot be said who collided with whom, it was merely a mutual collision.”
“Daddy, what is a plate?” Ye Yinzhu asked curiously.
“In our world, the vast sea occupies the largest area.
Within it lies the continents which originally belonged to the West Dragon Empire, as well as the continent of our Eastern Dragon Empire.
There may even be other continents.
Each standalone continent could be referred to as a continental plate.
Under a variety of influences, these continental plates are constantly moving.
You can think of it as the continents drifting across the ocean.
The scholars of Eastern Dragon said that the movement of these plates is largely related to the movements of the oceans and the Earth’s crust.
This stuff is too plex, I don’t understand much about it.
That so-called divine punishment, the collision, brought much more damage to the Eastern Dragon Empire than the West Dragon Empire.
Volcanic eruptions, large scale earthquakes, practically destroyed our highly advanced cities.
Even now, on the Ryuzakinus continent, there is no country that could pare to our former Eastern Dragon Empire.”
“What about the Dead Spirits?
What’s the deal with the Dead Spirits?
If it wasn’t a divine punishment, why did Dead Spirits appear?” Ye Yinzhu did not quite understand his father’s words.
