496: Chapter 496 Encountering an Acquaintance

After a while, they had all become familiar with one another.

"Are you out for a stroll today?"

Bai Muya looked at them and immediately asked.

"Yes, we just thought that since there wasn't much to do lately, we'd quickly come out to explore the Imperial Capital Barrier. After all, the Imperial Capital Barrier is a Super First-Tier Barrier. We just took a look, and the Imperial Capital Barrier is indeed much better than the Modu Barrier. It's just that we are all from out of town and aren't familiar with the area..."

Before Zhou Lingxue could finish, Bai Muya spoke up, "Sisters, you should have told me sooner after arriving. When I went to find you last time, didn't I tell you that if you had the chance, you should come to the Imperial Capital Barrier, and I would take you around? Since it's such a coincidence, let's go. We know everything about the fun, delicious, and good places to visit in the Imperial Capital like the back of our hands. We'll take you."

Bai Muya said.

Zhou Lingxue and the others smiled; this was actually quite good, as they wouldn't have to find places on their own.

"Let's go, let's go, let's set off!"

"Haha, let's go!"

...

After a while, they had visited several places, leaving Zhou Lingxue and the others dazzled. These places were not easy to find; without a local guide, it would have been truly difficult to locate them.

"How is it? These places are pretty good, right?"

Bai Muya said, and everyone nodded.

Seeing that their relationship was warming up, Bai Muya glanced at her younger sister. Her sister, Bai Rou, was a Wasted Artifact Spirit. She had previously heard that Ye Qing possessed the ability to make Wasted Artifact Spirits undergo an Ancestral Return and become powerful Artifact Spirits, though she didn't know if it was true.

"Ling Xue, let me ask you something."

Seeing Bai Muya asking, Zhou Lingxue nodded, "Go ahead and ask."

"I heard that Ye Qing has a certain ability, which is to allow Young Women who are Wasted Artifact Spirits to undergo an Ancestral Return and become powerful Artifact Spirits. Is that true?"

After these words, Bai Rou and Shangguan Yanran both looked over.

Their faces wore inquisitive expressions. After all, this was what the rumors said—that Ye Qing had such an ability—but they didn't know if it was actually true.

Furthermore, they themselves were Wasted Artifact Spirits, so they were naturally very interested in this topic.

"Yes, it is."

Zhou Lingxue nodded.

Beside them, Zhu Yin leaned in, "That is definitely true. Sister Ling Xue is now a powerful Artifact Spirit who has undergone a Third Ancestral Return."

Boom! This single sentence was like a thunderclap on a clear day.

It made Bai Muya and the others widen their eyes sharply, hardly able to believe what they had just heard.

They looked at Zhou Lingxue, feeling completely stunned. Good heavens, a Third Ancestral Return?!

This... a Third Ancestral Return was something they had only ever heard of in legends; they had never actually seen it.

This was their first time seeing an Artifact Spirit who had undergone a Third Ancestral Return.

"Alright, alright, don't say that. Aren't most of you already at a Second Ancestral Return? And Yunshu and the other two are like me, at a Third Ancestral Return. Don't worry, with Hubby around, you will definitely all be able to reach a Third Ancestral Return in the future. It's just a matter of time..."

Zhou Lingxue said to Zhu Yin.

At this moment, the three of them—Bai Muya and the others—could hardly stand still.

Good heavens. Ye Qing really did have such an ability. From the looks of it, Ye Qing didn't just have this ability; it was also terrifyingly powerful. These Artifact Spirits had actually all undergone an Ancestral Return, and they were all powerful Artifact Spirits.

"You guys are just too amazing."

After being stunned for a long time, Shangguan Yanran said.

Afterwards, Zhou Lingxue waved her hand, "This isn't our credit; it's all our husband's credit."

Bai Rou's mouth twitched. Ye Qing was indeed the Prodigy that the rumors described. If nothing else, this single skill alone was enough to make him formidable.

Furthermore, his innate talent was shocking enough on its own.

Such a Powerful Expert could be said to be a peerless existence throughout history.

A storm raged in Bai Muya's heart; she hadn't expected so much. At that moment, a thought crossed her mind: if her younger sister could form a Contract with Ye Qing, wouldn't she also be able to become a powerful Artifact Spirit just like Zhou Lingxue and the others?

Furthermore, the Bai Family could establish a connection with Ye Qing and become an even more powerful, prestigious Family...

Thinking of this, Bai Muya looked at Bai Rou, her eyes gleaming with a different kind of light.

Bai Rou felt like she was being pricked by needles under such a gaze. She looked sharply at Bai Muya, her eyes filled with confusion.

What is she trying to do? How did things suddenly become like this? Why that kind of gaze? This is too terrifying! What does my Older Sister want?

Bai Muya thought for a moment, then changed the subject, "Ling Xue, my father and grandfather would like to meet Ye Qing. I don't know if it's convenient. After all, we were waiting outside the door yesterday, but we didn't get to see Ye Qing."

"My father and grandfather are the same."

Shangguan Yanran quickly added.

Zhou Lingxue understood their intentions; after all, she and her group had received their kindness and guidance today. This was ultimately a matter of reciprocating favors.

"Hubby's intention was to wait until he was done with his busy schedule before meeting these Family heads, but there shouldn't be anything going on tomorrow. How about this: you come over tomorrow, and we will take you in."

"How about it?"

"Okay!"

Bai Muya and Shangguan Yanran looked at each other and smiled, saying in unison. Coming out to shop today had been so meaningful; it had actually solved a major problem for their families.

"Let's go, let's go. We won't talk about anything else. Today, we'll take you out to have a good time and enjoy yourselves to the fullest."

"Yes, yes, yes, let's go..."

As they spoke, they led Zhou Lingxue and the others forward.

Along the way, they ate, drank, and had fun.

Many people nearby watched these Young Women, and one by one, they were mesmerized.

They were just too beautiful.

Whose daughters from noble families were these, coming out in a group today?

However, these people were truly to be admired from afar and not to be trifled with. They gave everyone nearby such a strong sense of distance, just like Heavenly Immortals from the Nine Heavens, making it impossible for anyone to harbor any covetous thoughts.

By evening.

Everyone was just about tired from playing.

"We really visited quite a few places today, ate a lot of delicious food, and had a great time."

"Haha, as long as you had such a fun time, that's great."
