Chapter 81 The Differences in Ancient Martial Cultivators

Qin Hao and Ye Tianping came to the living room. They were going to settle family matters and didn’t want others to know.

Qin Hao explained what happened between him and Ye Siyu in details. Hearing his words, Ye Tianping’s expression was filled with regret and helplessness. He sighed, “I’ve always been worried that Siyu wouldn’t like you. As expected, it happened. If I was there, I wouldn’t let it happen. Don’t worry, I’ll talk to Si Yu. Marriage is not a trifling matter. The wedding ceremony had been held, and you can’t break up just like that. ”

Qin Hao smiled, “Uncle Ping, the past is in the past, you don’t have to mind about it. Let me and Siyu handle the matter between us by ourselves.”

Hearing that Qin Hao had a mind of his own, Ye Tianping was stunned. Staring at Qin Hao, he felt a sense of unfamiliarity. In the past, Qin Hao had always been at the mercy of others and didn’t have any own idea. In fact, it wasn’t that Qin Hao didn’t have his own opinions before, it was just that he didn’t have the qualification to express his opinions. Even he did, no one would care about it.

“Little Hao, in just a few months, you changed so fast that I almost can’t recognize you. Also, how did you become a Martial Cultivator? Tell me the details. ” Ye Tianping looked at Qin Hao, his eyes were filled with anticipation.

Qin Hao scratched his head. Everything happened to him was too bizarre, even if he told, no one would believe him. So, he didn’t know how to say. After thinking for a while, he said slowly, “Uncle Ping, I don’t know why, anyway, I accidentally received the inheritance of a Martial Cultivator and then became a Martial Cultivator.”

Ye Tianping also thought that it might be this kind of reason. It seemed like Qin Hao’s fortune was truly heaven-defying. It was something would only happen by chance. An ordinary person becoming a Martial Cultivator at the middle period of inner stage within a few months, it’s rare! Other Martial Cultivators would go crazy if they heard this.

“You should be more specific.” Ye Tianping really wanted to know the details.

Qin Hao was speechless. He could only make up a story. He was really a genius at lying. He made up a story carefully and could even make Ye Tianping believe it. In the end, he almost believed what he said too.

Ye Tianping kindly reminded Qin Hao, “Little Hao, the inheritance you have obtained will make people jealous. In the future, you must always keep a low profile and not show off. Otherwise, if this matter is let out, others will envy you. The world of Martial Cultivator is different from the world of urban. Those people can do anything. It’s normal for them to kill people for treasures. ”

It was already too late when Ye Tianping said that. Qin Hao had already been targeted by others. As for keeping a low profile, it was impossible for Qin Hao. Damn it, why did he cultivate the Ancient Martial Art? Wasn’t it just for increasing his power and being arrogant? If he still needed to keep a low profile, why would he cultivate it?

Of course, Qin Hao couldn’t say that even he thought so. Because he could feel that Ye Tianping truly cared about him. Qin Hao was grateful to those who cared about him.

“Yes, I understand, Uncle Ping.” Qin Hao nodded obediently.

“It’s good that you understand.” Ye Tianping nodded with satisfaction.

“Oh right, Uncle Ping, I’ve always wanted to ask you a question. Why did you go through so many troubles to find me and let me marry your daughter?” This question was always in Qin Hao’s heart.

Ye Tianping also knew that he wouldn’t be able to avoid this question, and he would have to tell Qin Hao sooner or later. However, if he were to tell him the reason, he would recall the past and remember his brother — Qin Ying, Qin Hao’s father. This kind of memory made him feel sad.

“Little Hao, do you know who is your father?” Ye Tianping kept silent for a moment before he asked with a hint of sadness.

Qin Hao shook his head. He thought to himself, “How could I know if no one told me?”

“Your father is called Qin Ying, he was my best brother. He is a Martial Cultivator from the Divine Doctor Sect like me.”

When Qin Hao heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He really didn’t think that his father would be a Martial Cultivator from a famous sect. But how could a Martial Cultivator get married with a woman in the city and gave birth to him?

Honestly speaking, he had no idea about his dad. His father had gone before he was born.

In fact, in his heart, there was no place for his father. It didn’t matter to him whether he had a father or not. It could even be said that he hated his parents somehow.

Logically speaking, a child was a treasure of the parents, but he was nothing. He only had a tragic childhood and youth. If he hadn’t become a Martial Cultivator today, he would have continued living a miserable life. Had his parents ever cared about him? If bringing him to this world was only to make him live a miserable life, then he would rather not come to this world.

His heart was filled with resentment. Of course, he was somewhat influenced by the other soul in his body, whose resentment was a hundred times greater than his.

When Ye Tianping spoke of Qin Hao’s father, he knew what Qin Hao was thinking when he saw the look of hatred on his face. Ye Tianping sighed helplessly, “Little Hao, I know you’ve suffered a lot in these years, but I hope you don’t hate your father. If you want to hate someone, then hate me.”

Qin Hao laughed. Why would I hate you for no reason? You had no obligation to raise me.

“Twenty years ago, our sect’s treasure, the Medicine King Scripture, was stolen. Your father and I followed the sect’s elder to search for it. At that time, your father met your mother, Mu Qingyao. They fell in love at first sight, so they had you. ” Ye Tingping continued to reminisce about the past, but he did not mention one thing. He also fell in love with a woman in the city at first sight, and they secretly did that thing, then Ye Siyu came to this world.

“On that night under the bright moonlight, your mother told your father that she was pregnant and that child was you.” Ye Tingping continued to reminisce, “Your father was very happy to hear this news, but that night, we found the person who stole the Medicine King Scripture. Your father and I joined the fight of killing that man. He was too powerful, many people of us died. However, he was only severely injured and escaped from our hand in the end. In the end, we did not take back the Medicine King Scripture, and your father died in that battle.” When speaking this part, Ye Tingping raised his face, tears appeared in his eyes, and his voice began to tremble, “Actually …. the one who died should be me! Your father blocked a blade for me, so he …” Ye Tingping, as a dignified man, was actually choked with sobs and was unable to continue. Then he became silent, as if in mourning for the dead.

After a long while, he recovered from his sadness and let out a breath. “Your father told me to take care of you and your mother before he died. However, I didn’t make it. I let your father down and I feel sorry to you. So, you should hate me, not your father.”

Ye Tianping had his own problems, he could even barely take care of his own daughter, let alone Qin Hao. The two of them had secret affairs with women in the city during the mission, which was a violation of the sect’s rules.

The truth was after the mission ended, Ye Tianping didn’t dare to reveal what he and Qin Ying did during the mission. In the end, not only did he abandon Qin Hao and his mother, he couldn’t even take care of his own woman and child. He followed his people back to the Divine Doctor Sect.

Later on, his status in the Divine Doctor Sect increased gradually, and he had the right to come out occasionally. Only then did he learn that his woman had given birth to a daughter for him, and her name was Ye Siyu. After that, he could only go out to visit the mother and daughter by chance. When Ye Siyu was a teenager, she joined the Profound Martial Sect, he had less chance to take care of her. In that situation, how could he take care of Qin Hao?

Although Qin Hao wasn’t clear about all of this, he didn’t blame Ye Tianping for not taking care of him. To him, Ye Tianping had no obligation to take care of him, so what he did was not important.

From the beginning to the end, Qin Hao didn’t say anything, nor did he have any intention to blame him, this caused Ye Tianping to feel even worse. If Qin Hao had some resentment towards him, perhaps he would feel better.

“Little Hao, I owe your father and you a lot. Therefore, I hope to make it up for you …” However, Ye Tianping was interrupted by Qin Hao.

“So, you want to marry your daughter to me to make up for your guilt?” Qin Hao finally understood everything. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, “Uncle Ping, you don’t have to do this. You don’t owe me anything. Maybe you owe my father, but it has nothing to do with me. Therefore, you don’t need to interfere in the matter between Siyu and me.”

“But little Hao, I …” Ye Tianping felt guilty.

“Uncle Ping, don’t say any more. I appreciate your kindness. I’ll take care of it myself. I did marry your daughter, but I’m not a gift to make up the guilt. What I need is her heart. “Qin Hao said firmly.

Ye Tianping came into deep thought. Qin Hao’s words seemed to make sense. Did he do it wrong? However, other than repaying Qin Hao in this way, what else could he do for him?

“All right, Uncle Ping, let this matter end here. Don’t think about it too much. ” Qin Hao changed the topic when he saw that Ye Tingping still had a distressed look. “I want to ask you something else. What did you mean by Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivators and Semi Ancient Martial Cultivators?”

“Whew.” Ye Tianping came back from his thoughts. He let out a breath and said, “Little Hao, now that you’re a Martial Cultivator, I’ll tell you about the Ancient Martial Arts.”

Qin Hao became interested immediately. This was something he really wanted to know.

“In many people’s mind, all Martial Cultivator are Ancient Martial Cultivators. It’s very hard to find a real Ancient Martial Cultivator in the city. ”

Qin Hao’s curiosity was piqued by these words. He asked in astonishment, “Are they not Ancient Martial Cultivators?”

“At least they are not real Ancient Martial Cultivators. The real Ancient Martial Cultivators are in the Ancient Martial World. ” Ye Tianping continued, “The Ancient Martial World is an independent world. Although it’s still on earth, it is isolated from our world. The Martial Cultivators in this world can only be called Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivator and Semi Ancient Martial Cultivator. ”

“Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivators are the most familiar Martial Cultivators in the city, including the famous Seven Great Sects. As for the Semi Ancient Martial Cultivator, outsiders can’t meet them often because they rarely come out. If there isn’t anything important, the people from Divine Doctor Sect wouldn’t have come out so easily. ”

“Uncle Ping, you came out for the Medicine King Scripture?” Qin Hao was only guessing blindly, he didn’t expect that he was right.

Ye Tianping nodded, “Yes, but, little Hao, I only tell you about this matter, I hope you can keep it as a secret. The Medicine King Scripture is related to if of our Divine Doctor Sect could return to the Ancient Martial World. We do not want to cause any unnecessary trouble. ”

“You want to return to the Ancient Martial World? The Divine Doctor Sect is from the Ancient Martial World? “Qin Hao thought of something else.

Ye Tianping nodded again, “Yes, a few hundred years ago, our Divine Doctor Sect was one of the most famous sects in the Ancient Martial World. Unfortunately, we encountered some accidents, our sect declined. We were forced to leave the Ancient Martial World and developed in the outside world.”

“It’s not bad outside, why must you go back to the Ancient Martial World?” Qin Hao said disapprovingly.

Ye Tianping laughed at Qin Hao’s ignorance, “Do you know why there are such things as Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivator, Semi Ancient Martial Cultivator, and true Ancient Martial Cultivator?”

Qin Hao shook his head. He knew nothing about this, “Uncle Ping, tell me why.”

Ye Tianping frowned and didn’t know how to explain it. Finally, he raised his eyelids and found the simplest way to explain, “It’s like this, there are eight Ancient Martial stages, beginning stage, inner stage, perfection stage, spirit stage, void stage, immortal stage, saint stage, divine stage.”

“For the Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivator, being able to cultivate to perfection stage is a success. Once one reaches the spirit stage, it will be considered reaching the peak. Pseudo Ancient Martial Cultivators who can reach the spirit stage are extremely rare, and we haven’t heard that there are any one of them had reached the peak of spirit stage. Currently, the strongest one of them is only at the late period of spirit stage.”

“As for the Semi Ancient Martial Cultivators, there are people who can cultivate to the void stage, and someone can even break through to the higher stage – immortal stage. However, I only heard of them. As for the saint stage and divine stage, they are just legends to the outside world. No one can reach there.”

“Why?” Qin Hao didn’t understand. He didn’t believe that the people outside couldn’t reach the saint stage and divine stage.

“Because the spirit qi and resources needed for cultivation limit the growth of the Martial Cultivators’ strength in the outside world.” Ye Tianping explained patiently, “Compared to the outside world, in the Ancient Martial World, the spirit qi is dense and the cultivation resources are abundant. In the outside world, the spirit qi is almost depleted and cultivation resources are scarce. Hence, there is simply no chance for further development or improvement. If you want to get improved, you must go to the Ancient Martial World. ”

Qin Hao understood by hearing this. Indeed, the spirit qi and cultivation resources outside were too scarce. If it weren’t for his extraordinary luck, he wouldn’t have been able to obtain current strength. It seemed that if he wanted to develop further in the future, he would have to go to the Ancient Martial World. Of course, that was after a long, long time. Right now, he didn’t even need to think about it. With his current strength, if he wanted to go to the Ancient Martial World, he would only die on the way.

“Uncle Ping, which stage are you in now?” Qin Hao suddenly asked. He stared at Ye Tingping and thought since he came from a Semi Ancient Martial sect, he should be very powerful, at least in the middle or late period of perfection stage.

Ye Tianping flicked a glance at him and smiled, saying lightly, “Middle period of spirit stage.”

“Uh, what, the middle period of spirit stage?” Qin Hao opened his mouth widely. Ye Tianping was equivalent to a Fourth Stage Martial Cultivator. Damn, Qin Hao had still underestimated his strength. This kind of person was the number one expert in the city. The Seven Great Sects were nothing in front of him.

Seeing Qin Hao’s shocked expression, Ye Tianping felt very proud, and laughed, “Little Hao, work hard, I believe you will reach this stage in the future. My brother, Qin Ying’s son, won’t be bad. Oh, right. I don’t have anything good with me, only one small thing for you. It would be helpful to you.” As he spoke, he took out a small yellow book and handed it over to Qin Hao.

Qin Hao received it doubtfully. What kind of cultivation technique was this? Honestly speaking, he was not lacking in cultivation techniques. The cultivation techniques he had were much more powerful than those in this world.

“This is not a cultivation technique. It will not help you in improving your strength.” Ye Tingping explained.

Qin Hao rolled his eyes. Then why did he give it to him? However, he couldn’t say these words in front of Ye Tingping, but he could not refuse, so he planned to throw it away after a while.

“This is called Hidden Breath Art. After you learn this cultivation technique, you can hide your Martial Cultivator’s inner breath, making others unable to find out that you are a Martial Cultivator. It will be very helpful for you in hiding your identity and strength. Now you need to keep a low profile, so this thing is useful. Remember to keep it safe, this is very precious. I also got it by chance, and have not discovered anyone else who has this technique till today. ”

Qin Hao finally understood. No wonder he could not feel Ye Tingping’s inner breath in the beginning. If he didn’t have his spirit sense, he wouldn’t have been able to tell that Ye Tianping was a Martial Cultivator.

Now Qin Hao was happy. It’s great! With this thing, he could confuse the enemies when facing them. With his Yin Wind Bone Erosion Palm, even if the opponent was stronger than him, he might not be able to defeat Qin Hao. He didn’t think of using this thing to keep a low profile.

He planned to throw it away, but now he knew it was a treasure. Qin Hao immediately put it in his clothes carefully.

“Elder Ye, Elder Ye.” Someone was shouting at Ye Tianping from outside. It seemed he was very anxious.

“What is the matter?” Ye Tianping immediately stood up and said, “Come in.”

A member of the Divine Doctor Sect immediately walked in. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Qin Hao, he shut his mouth and quickly walked to the side of Ye Tianping, whispering a few words into his ear.

Qin Hao did his best to listen to what he was saying. However, with his current strength, it was hard for him to hear the whispers of these experts. All he heard was a buzzing sound. It was already quite good to be able to hear the buzzing sound.

After that person finished speaking, Ye Tianping’s expression changed as he said decisively, “Let’s return to the Nanlin city immediately.
