Chapter 444

Ye Xueqing's words made Ye Lin break down instantly.

"No... not bitter, I've been doing quite well, I'm very capable, no one dares to bully me."

Ye Lin said he was doing well, but tears slid down involuntarily.

He didn't choose to tell Ye Xueqing the truth.

In reality, having grown up in the slums, how could he not be bullied?

To not be bullied, he could only become worse and more ruthless than those who bullied him.

But Ye Lin didn't want Ye Xueqing to see that side of him.

"I'm sorry... Mom is a useless person; it was Mom's weakness that harmed you... and also harmed your father."

Ye Xueqing's face was full of guilt.

How could a child without a mother not suffer?

She had been absent from all the important moments of Ye Lin's growth, and even now, she was still dragging Ye Lin down.

She, Ye Xueqing, had talent, but in the end, she hadn't been able to protect anything.

If she hadn't chosen to retreat for the sake of family affection when facing Ye Yutian's framing back then, but had chosen to fight Ye Yutian to the end, she wouldn't have harmed so many people.

"Mom, don't say that."

Ye Lin held up the golden beam of light, his hair having turned completely white.

"You're not weak, you're very strong; you persisted in the Ye family forbidden area for twenty-some years without revealing a hint of my information; if it were me, I couldn't do it."

"Love you... Mom."

Ye Xueqing's tears burst forth.

"Fourth sister... I'm sorry... Second brother... didn't choose to believe you."

Ye Yuyang looked at Ye Xueqing, his voice choking with sobs.

"Fourth sister... we failed you!" Ye Yushan's eyes were scarlet.

Ye Xueqing's tear glands, which were originally uncontrollable, suddenly controlled themselves.

She looked at her two brothers with an indifferent gaze.

"You don't need to say sorry to me; I don't need it."

Late deep affection and late justice have no meaning.

Being locked in the Ye family forbidden area for these twenty-some years, Ye Xueqing had figured out a lot.

Looking at Ye Xueqing's indifferent appearance, Ye Yushan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally remained silent and lowered his head.

How he wanted to hear his fourth sister call him "third brother" again.

Ye Yuyang also remained silent.

Although they were kept in the dark, the harm they had done to Ye Xueqing over the years was real.

Wrong is wrong.

They really didn't have the qualifications to seek the fourth sister's forgiveness.

The two brothers looked at each other, supporting their heavily injured bodies to climb up, and attacked the golden beam of light.

They didn't know if doing this could make Ye Xueqing feel better, but at least, it could make them feel a bit more at ease.

Ye Xueqing ignored Ye Yuyang and the other.

She had finally woken up from her crazy state, and she didn't want to dwell on the rights and wrongs of the past anymore.

"Grant me three moments of freedom, to settle the mortal affairs of the world."

"That's enough."

Ye Xueqing slowly stood up, the iron chains on her body clattering; her hair was withered and yellow like dry grass, her body was thin, and her clothes were old.

But the moment she stood up, the older generation of the Ye family had a hint of shock in their eyes.

They didn't know why, but they always felt that the proud daughter of heaven had returned at this moment.

Snow suddenly began to fall in the sky, snowflakes drifting down like goose feathers.

"Frost and Snow Monarch's Arrival."

The aura around Ye Xueqing changed suddenly, an ancient and vast chill spreading, and even the air was frozen at this moment.

Crystal snowflakes decorated the surroundings into a world of silver, time seemed to become very slow, and even the Chuitian Demon-Subduing Array was frozen at this moment, the golden beam of light unable to fall any further.

Outside the silver world, Ye Yutian and the others seemed to be jumping, but Ye Lin couldn't hear their voices, and their movements were also slowed down.

Ye Xueqing stood in the center of this world, just like a true monarch of frost and snow stepping into the mortal world, making people look on with awe.

Ye Lin was stunned, staring blankly at Ye Xueqing; only then did he realize how heavy the title of "First Genius of the Five Great Clans" really was.

Sealed for twenty years, and able to block an array driven by seven Lie Yang Realm experts at once—was this the former first genius Ye Xueqing?

"This is... the prototype of a Divine Domain! You have actually comprehended a Divine Domain! This is impossible; you were sealed twenty-some years ago, you are at most a Fan Xing Realm expert now, how could you comprehend a Divine Domain!"

Ye Yutian's eyes were scarlet, jealous to the point of madness.

Why?

Why wasn't this talent on him?

He was the big brother! He was the eldest son of the Ye family!

The six elders of the Ye family also stared blankly at the slender figure in the sky full of ice and snow, their gazes incomparably complex.

A career as a job-changer has two hurdles.

One is stepping from Level 90 into the Fan Xing Realm.

Only by having a certain understanding of one's own profession can one cross this hurdle; relying solely on stacking experience points is useless.

The second hurdle is the peak of Level 99.

After a job-changer achieves the peak of Level 99, whether by hunting demonic creatures or seeking all kinds of crooked paths, they can no longer increase their realm by even a bit.

And during the First Human-Demon War, the Human Emperor of Da Xia at that time had snatched an extremely important classic from the Demon Clan.

The classic recorded that the second hurdle is heaven's curse on all living beings.

This heaven does not allow the appearance of living beings exceeding Level 99; whether it is the Human Clan or the Demon Clan, there are no exceptions.

And the Demon Clan had already researched a method to break it, which was to integrate all their own power, forcibly cutting out their own part from this world, so as not to be suppressed by heaven anymore.

If heaven doesn't allow it, then grab it yourself!

The Demon Clan calls existence that can cut through heaven and earth to make a breakthrough a "Demon Venerable"! The supreme venerable of the Demon Realm!

And after the Human Clan finished reading the Demon Clan's classic, they believed that this behavior involved the realm of gods, so they called it the Divine Domain Realm!

Theoretically, as long as a job-changer can integrate their own profession into themselves, they must also be able to step into that legendary realm like the Demon Clan.

It's just a pity that this is only a theory; from the end of the First Human-Demon War until now, looking at the entire Human Clan, no one has been able to comprehend their own Divine Domain prototype, let alone step into that ethereal Divine Domain realm.

And now, the first person to comprehend a Divine Domain prototype had appeared before their eyes.

If... if at that time, Ye Xueqing hadn't caused that trouble, and they had let Ye Xueqing increase her strength step by step, could they, the Ye family, have a Divine Domain-level expert now?

The elders of the Ye family were all somewhat regretful at this moment.

Ye Yutian also noticed the regret in the eyes of the elders, and he was jealous to the point of madness.

"What are the six elders waiting for? Do you think it's a good thing that Ye Xueqing reveals such talent?"

"We have locked her in the Ye family forbidden area for so many years, making her experience so many tortures; she will only have hatred for the Ye family!"

"If we don't kill her now while she hasn't become a climate, once she truly steps into that realm in the future, the Ye family will inevitably be destroyed in her hands! By then, what face will you have to face the ancestors?"
