Chapter 1454: Ice Palace Test (Part Two)

Chapter 1453 – Ice Palace Test (Part Two)

“Yes, father, I understand!” Xiaochen nodded, “Nobody is aware of our secret, not even that old thing… But, I am concerned that the ancient sects are getting suspicious. The thing that happened nineteen years ago is proof of that, they’re aware of something…”

“No need to worry about that- without an heir ceremony- even with the talent Yu Ning shows- nobody would suspect anything,” The Old Elder said with a wave of his hand as he spoke dully, “All you need to do is accept this glory! Once our House Yu has four Sky class practitioners- five, if you succeed as well, we will be the strongest existence, even among the ancient sects! At that point, we won’t just be a hidden house any longer, we would also be an ancient sect!”

With that thought, Old Yu couldn’t help but laugh loudly- he had been waiting for this day for such a long time, a long time indeed! House Yu’s day of full glory was closing in!

“Yes, father, I understand!” Xiaochen nodded solemnly.

“Yu Bingtian has good talent, but for him to break through into Sky class requires a certain amount of chance, just like for you and me. But, for Ning and her… It wasn’t a problem. The people who can break through into Sky class will be the core of House Yu, and the power will be controlled by those Sky class masters. The family matters though, could be left to Yu Bing to manage,” Old Yu said, “Right, how’s the thing with the qi gathering pill?”

“Father, it was a failure…” Xiaochen’s eyes flashed with disappointment as he spoke helplessly.

“So be it- we’ll try again when we get the chance,” Old Yu said, “Don’t put too much value on these types of things- it might affect your mood when you are practitioning!”

“Yes, father!” Xiaochen nodded.

“One more thing, you should know that the test will have its dangers- Yu Bing and Yu Shan could lose their lives there!” Old Yu sighed, remembering what had happened to him back then, “Everybody, for the sake of the final points, would take things too far even when it came to friends or teammates. Many despicable things happen there. Everyone knows how rare this chance is, so… You need to be prepared mentally.”

“Ah!” Xiaochen’s face darkened- he only knew that there were great rewards to be had in this test, but he didn’t know about the dangers! “So this means that, Yu Bing might be in danger if he went? Then…”

“Xiaochen, you’re not mentally stable enough- as a head of the house, what you should see are the future prospects of the house. There shouldn’t be bias or anything like that in the mind of a head! Yu Bing is my grandson, and Yu Shan as well- so are the girls my granddaughters!” Old Yu said, “In your eyes, however, you only see Yu Bing and not Yu Shan!”

“Please forgive me, father!” Xiaochen’s heart tightened, only then realizing the taboo that he had just committed! In order to advance their house, the head of the house shouldn’t be thinking about these things- he only needed to make sure that the house would take the path to glory! Once the head of the house let their private emotions get to their head, the house would be in danger!

“Yu Bing and Yu Shan are both talented, and this test- if they were to pass successfully- would allow the Ice Palace to help them greatly in their practitioning! If they don’t pass, they only have their own strength to blame. If they can’t even manage to survive against those other practitioners in the test, how could they have the right to manage the entire House Yu in the first place!” Old Yu was quite open minded about this, “For the sake of our house, the people suited for this must go!”

“Yes, father, I understand!” Xiaochen nodded seriously, “Yu Bing and Yu Shan…. Everything will be as you said!”

At the same time, the people who received the invitation for the test went well beyond just House Yu- there was the hidden House Zhao and the hidden House Pi, for example, as well as some other sects and groups. Anyone with the right qualifications would be invited.

Other than the nine common noble houses, of course, every other power had already received the invitation! It wasn’t that the Ice Palace was excluding these common houses, it was simply because the other common houses had no young Mystic masters, other than House Yu’s young Mystic masters! But the Ice Palace didn’t need to send an invitation to the common House Yu because if the hidden House Yu wanted the common House Yu to participate, they could order it themselves.

“Qiqi, this Ice Palace test will have to be passed by your own strength- you can’t always complete missions under my protection,” An elderly man said solemnly to a girl in front of him, “The Ice Palace test doesn’t allow outsiders to follow in- it would be meaningless otherwise!”

“Don’t worry, Grandpa Mubei- I’ll be careful. I’ll get the rights for the treasure exchange!” Yang Qiqi grabbed her fist in respect and nodded solemnly.

“You may be a Mystic class early phase physical practitioner, but you are far too inexperienced. Physical practitioners all lack battle experience, this is the fatal part of being a physical practitioner! You’re also a specialist in qinggong, and not offense… I really am worried here…” Mubei sighed, but here was nothing he could do. This was a very rare chance for them, after all, and who knew when the next one would be if they didn’t participate now?

“It’s fine- I’m good at qinggong, I can just run if I can’t win, right?” Qiqi smiled, “When I get enough points, I’ll just hide somewhere safe.”

“That would work, I suppose…” Mubei nodded, “Remember, when fighting the enemy, escape if your ambush fails. Don’t ever get into a battle! You might not even win against a Golden class in a direct confrontation, let alone a Mystic!”

“I understand!” Qiqi may have verbally agreed, but she didn’t completely accept her grandfather’s comment. How come she couldn’t even fight against Golden class fighters even as a Mystic? She wasn’t that useless!

The hidden House Zhao had received their invitation as well.

The head of the House Zhao, Guangyin, was pacing back and forth in front of his father’s isolation chamber- it was even making Elder Bi dizzy!

“Head of the house, the old head can’t just leave all of a sudden- perhaps you should just be the one to make this decision. The Sky Palace test may be important, but it isn’t as important as the old head breaking through into Sky class,” Elder BI said helplessly as he looked at the frowning Guangyin.

“Elder Bi, what is your opinion of this?” Guangyin couldn’t make the decision- he decided to ask Elder Bi instead.

Elder Bi was right- the test was important, but just not as much compared to what his father was doing in there. However, he couldn’t really make the decision on his own- the only person he could discuss this with was Elder Bi.

“Head of the house, this Ice Palace test is something we must participate in- other people will all be sending their men for sure, and we must do the same!” Elder Bi nodded, “This, we don’t need to ask the old head- it’s a decision we can make ourselves.
