Urban Seduction: Housewives Club-Chapter 1283: The Master’s Surprise

Ye Fei’s comment made Yin Hanyan a bit embarrassed. She had indeed come quietly on purpose, but not to watch them being affectionate as Ye Fei suggested.

Instead, she wanted to secretly observe whether they were truly in love. However, seeing this scene, she didn’t need to guess anymore.

To cover up her slight awkwardness, Yin Hanyan continued to tease her disciple, "Xueqi, you must be very happy now, right? You should be grateful to your master for making the arrangements. To help you two, I used up half of my already limited supply of ’Dreamlike Illusion.’"

Hearing this, Song Xueqi felt a pang of bitterness. If Ye Fei weren’t her grandson, she would be extremely grateful for her master’s arrangements.

But now, she didn’t know what to say.

If her master hadn’t been so hasty and given her more time to get to know Ye Fei, last night’s tragedy might have been avoided.

Of course, Song Xueqi understood that her master’s actions were entirely for her benefit, and she harbored no resentment. She could only blame fate for being so cruel.

Seeing her disciple’s fluctuating expression, Yin Hanyan thought she was just shy and continued with a smile, "What’s wrong? So soon, you only have eyes for your lover and don’t even want to acknowledge your master?"

Yin Hanyan had no idea what Song Xueqi was thinking, but Ye Fei knew all too well. To avoid upsetting his grandmother further, he quickly interjected, "Master, please stop teasing Xueqi. I have something I’d like to ask you."

"You’re quite considerate. It seems my disciple has chosen well," Yin Hanyan said with a smile, then sat down on a nearby chair. "Go ahead and ask. After you’re done, I have something to ask you as well."

"I’d like to ask where the passage to Earth is located," Ye Fei said directly. Consulting Yin Hanyan on this matter was the best choice, as she had personally gone to Earth to bring Song Xueqi over.

Yin Hanyan was taken aback. "Why do you ask this now?"

"It’s like this. Ye Fei knows I miss my family on Earth, so he wants to find out more," Song Xueqi quickly answered, fearing that Ye Fei would reveal he was also from Earth. If their master started probing further and figured out their true relationship, it would be utterly embarrassing.

Hearing this, Yin Hanyan gave Ye Fei an approving look. From these small details, it was clear that her disciple had made a good choice. She became even more amiable towards Ye Fei.

"I’m very pleased that you care for Xueqi so much. However, the passage is currently sealed. It’s almost impossible to force it open."

"What do you mean?" Ye Fei asked urgently. Although he had found his grandmother in this True Void world and unexpectedly his great-grandmother as well, his mother and the others were waiting for him back home. He couldn’t stay here for too long.

"The passage between the two worlds operates on a cycle of sixty years, known as a jiazi. Within this cycle, there is a ten-year period when the passage is very loose, allowing relatively easy travel between the worlds, especially from the True Void world to Earth. Almost anyone could do it. But for the remaining fifty years, the passage is sealed. Even if all the great multiplication cultivators in the True Void world were to work together, they might not be able to force it open," Yin Hanyan explained in detail.

"The last sealing happened twenty years ago. That means you’ll have to wait another thirty years to go through."

"How can this be?" Ye Fei was completely stunned. This was not a result he could accept.

Song Xueqi had just fully understood the situation. She had thought that her master had said that only the person from the Nuwa Palace could force the passage open, and she had assumed that it simply meant that person had to take action.

Now she realized that her master hadn’t meant that at all. Instead, it meant that only that person had the power to mobilize all the great multiplication cultivators.

After a pause, Ye Fei, still not willing to give up, asked, "What if we get more spirit transformation cultivators to help?"

"It won’t work. The quality of the true energy of spirit transformation cultivators is not sufficient. No matter how many there are, it won’t make a difference," Yin Hanyan shook her head.

"What about using brute force?" Ye Fei thought of the tens of thousands of meters high mountain in the Thunder Valley, which could absorb all true energy but could be broken through with brute force. Maybe the passage was similar?

To his surprise, Yin Hanyan continued to shake her head, "Even less so. The passage is intangible. Brute force won’t have any effect at all. It can only be opened with true energy."

It seemed that the passage between the two worlds was not only different from the Thunder Valley but was the complete opposite.

At this moment, Ye Fei felt incredibly frustrated. However, he was relieved to know there was a way, at least a direction to strive for.

Feeling the strength and quantity of the true energy of Yin Hanyan, a great multiplication cultivator, and comparing it with his own, Ye Fei thought that if he could dissolve the yang energy in his meridians, he wouldn’t need all of it. Just dissolving about half would be enough for him to break through the passage alone.

But that was easier said than done. He and his grandmother had been cultivating together for so long, and last night he had unexpectedly cultivated with his great-grandmother as well. His meridians had only just shown the slightest bit of relaxation.

When would he be able to dissolve half of it?

However, pessimism and despair were never Ye Fei’s style. Moreover, at least now he had a direction to work towards. So, he quickly composed himself and asked, "I wonder what you wanted to talk to me about, Master?"

"Well, I wanted to ask how you managed to take a full blow from Zhuifeng yesterday and come out unscathed?" This question had been bothering Yin Hanyan for a whole day.

Zhuifeng was a master at the peak of spirit transformation. His full-force attack would leave even her, a great multiplication cultivator, with some injuries if she took it head-on. Yet, Ye Fei had managed to do it without a scratch.

Normally, this wouldn’t be a question to ask casually, as it involved Ye Fei’s secrets.

But things were different now. He had become her disciple’s lover, and the two were so much in love.

In a way, Ye Fei could be considered a disciple of the Cuiyan Sect, so she didn’t have as many reservations.

Ye Fei had taken Zhuifeng’s blow thanks to his incredibly strong physical body.

Even if it were Yin Hanyan herself, a great multiplication cultivator, who struck him, it might not even leave a scratch. After all, a body tempered by over eight hundred heavenly tribulations was no joke.

However, if he were to state this matter-of-factly, it would be too discouraging. Fortunately, Ye Fei was prepared. He took out a pitch-black object from his spatial ring, which looked like a heart-protecting mirror, and handed it to Yin Hanyan, saying, "I relied on this."

Yin Hanyan was curious about what kind of treasure could be so powerful.

As soon as she took it, her beautiful face immediately showed a look of intense surprise, "The Ten Thousand Calamities Stone, it’s the Ten Thousand Calamities Stone?!"
