Book 16. Chapter 37. Perseverance
At this moment, Zhou Xian’s face was filled with smiles. He turned to Qin Yu and them; with a humble smile, he said. “Everyone, I shall go and meet the Exalted Celestial first then. Hopefully everyone will also be able to obtain a gift bestowed by the Exalted Celestials.”
As he said that, Zhou Xian proceeded to walk up the steps of the Thunder Punishment Palace, one of the three side palaces. When he walked up the steps, he walked over to Yao Lin and even greeted her with a very courteous salute. “Senior sister Yao Lin, thank you.”
Yao Lin was also smiling. She then led Zhou Xian into the Thunder Punishment Palace.
As for Qin Yu and Duanmu Yu who were watching this scene from afar, they both felt a sense of disgust in their hearts. Even Kuiyin Hou and them were starting to feel indignant.
“Brother Duanmu, are we to continue trying to ascend this Heaven Connecting Flight of Stairs?” Qin Yu looked to Duanmu Yu.
At this moment, Qin Yu was filled with anger and indignance. “I truly never would’ve expected that this Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial was biased in helping his own descendents so openly. The Utmost North Sage Emperor has given us ten entire years to prepare. Why didn’t this Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial wait two or three years before summoning this Zhou Xian? Instead, right after this Zhou Xian appeared before the Mountain Sea Palace, he immediately showed himself and summoned Zhou Xian. This bias is too obvious.”
It was so obvious that Qin Yu felt angry.
With his current frame of mind, it was practically impossible for him to surmount the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps.
“Qin Yu, let’s rest for half a day first and regulate our frame of minds. After we reach our best states, it would not be too late for us to scale the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps then.” Duanmu Yu’s voice was still as amiable as before.
