326: Chapter 326 Revisiting the Mine

According to Ye Qing's analysis, there should be a mineral vein down here.

Subsequently, Ye Qing activated his God-Level Detection Skill to investigate.

As Ye Qing expected, there truly was a mineral vein below, and its reserves were massive.

It could be said that it was even greater than the one in Jiangcheng.

He could do the same as he did in Jiangcheng: keep quiet for now, extract the best Ore from the mineral vein tonight, and as for the rest, just let King Fenghai mine it.

Thinking this, Ye Qing looked at everyone. "Alright, let's head back first."

"Okay, hubby."

Zhou Lingxue nodded, and then everyone followed Ye Qing back toward Qishan Villa.

After finishing the meal.

Sophia looked at everyone with a grateful expression. "Sisters, thank you for taking me around this afternoon. My father and brother are currently at the Modu Military Department, so I won't disturb you any longer and will head back now."

"Oh, what are you saying? You've come from so far away in the West; hosting you is just us fulfilling our duties as hosts. In the future, when we go to the West, you can just take us around too." Li Ziqin waved her hand, telling Sophia not to be so polite.

"That's for certain."

"In that case, I'll head to the Military Department first."

Just as Sophia was about to leave, Zheng Yuxin took her hand. "Sophia, why go to the Military Department? The conditions there aren't as good as Qishan Villa. Besides, aren't your father and brother staying in Modu for a while? If that's the case, why not just stay here at Qishan Villa? There are so many rooms here; how could there not be a place for you?"

"If you leave like this and King Fenghai sees it, he'll think we're inhospitable."

"Exactly, exactly. Just stay here tonight and go find your father and the others tomorrow."

...

Everyone chimed in one after another, making Sophia's heart waver.

"Then I shall impose upon you."

Sophia spoke with a bashful look on her face; after all, staying here really was an imposition on them.

"It's fine, it's fine. It's no trouble at all."

"I'll take you to pick a room."

Zhou Lingxue took Sophia's hand and led her toward the other side.

A moment later, Sophia looked at a room. "Sister Ling Xue, is anyone in this room? If not, I'll just stay here."

Zhou Lingxue looked at the room Sophia had chosen; it was quite close to Ye Qing's room.

A helpless expression appeared on her face. This girl really knew how to choose; staying so close to her husband's room, wasn't she afraid of not being able to sleep well at night?

However, Sophia probably wasn't aware of her husband's prowess yet.

"How about you pick another one?"

Zhou Lingxue didn't know how to warn her, so she could only speak hesitantly like that.

Hmm?!

What's going on?

Sophia was completely bewildered, not understanding what Zhou Lingxue meant.

"Is there something wrong with this room? Is it not okay?"

"How could it not be okay?"

Zhou Lingxue spoke hurriedly, then looked at Sophia with a strange expression.

Good sister, don't blame me for not warning you; you were the one who didn't catch my drift.

With that, she took Sophia inside to set things up.

Night fell.

Sophia was preparing to sleep.

Then, rustling sounds began to ring out.

Hmm?!

This is?!

Sophia listened intently, and then her eyes suddenly widened. She could hardly believe what she was hearing.

What is going on?

Good heavens.

This is also...

In an instant, she remembered Zhou Lingxue's previous words and slapped her own forehead.

My brain is really stupid. Sister Zhou gave me such a clear warning, and I still did this.

Sigh...

She sighed and turned over, trying hard to block it out, but the more she tried, the clearer it seemed to become.

She waited silently.

One hour...

Two hours...

...

Ahhh!

Sophia was about to go crazy.

Having no choice, she could only get up and go out into the courtyard.

She intended to clear her head.

A while later, the sounds finally disappeared.

Then, she saw Ye Qing slowly walk out of the room.

Hmm?!

What is Ye Qing coming out for?

She watched Ye Qing and saw him tap his foot lightly, heading out of Qishan Villa.

This...

Why is Ye Qing going out instead of sleeping so late at night?

She also wanted to follow him and see, so she went to the main gate of Qishan Villa and opened it slightly to look outside.

Then, she saw two exotic beasts guarding the entrance.

She opened the door a bit wider and saw the Six-Winged Sky Tiger, though it was currently wrapped in its six massive wings, greedily absorbing the power of the moonlight.

How miraculous.

To think there was such a method.

Sophia had never seen this before and found it fascinating. Just as she was about to move closer to take a look, she felt a prickling sensation on her back, as if she were being watched by something.

She looked to the other side and locked eyes with the Moon-Devouring Demon Wolf. At this moment, the Moon-Devouring Demon Wolf's eyes were blood-red, and its entire Aura was filled with violence.

Its appearance could be described as incredibly ferocious.

Sophia's legs instantly turned to jelly from fear.

At this point, any thought of going out had vanished; she only wanted to stay inside Qishan Villa forever.

She returned to her room in a daze.

After a while, she fell asleep.

Meanwhile, outside on the hilltop.

Ye Qing looked at the ground.

With a stomp of his foot, a massive eight trigrams disk rose up.

Then the earth split open.

Revealing the Spiritual Vein below, Ye Qing looked and smiled. He placed the Ores filled with surging energy into his space.

The quantity could be said to have reached a terrifying level.

Furthermore, the energy within could be described as vast.

Although there were many other Ores, compared to these, they were like scrap metal.

They weren't even worth mentioning.

"Wait until tomorrow, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

After Ye Qing absorbed one Ore, he tapped his foot and rose from the ground, then with a sweep of his hand, the unearthed soil completely covered back up.

Ye Qing tapped his foot lightly and headed into the distance.

A while later.

Ye Qing returned to Qishan Villa.

By now, the sky was starting to pale.

Ye Qing sat there, admiring the sunrise.

Another hour passed.

Creak.

A door opened.

"I slept quite well last night."

Zhou Lingxue came out, and then she looked ahead to find a gaze falling upon her.

This?

Hubby?

"Hubby, why did you come out of the room so early today?"
