"Reunion? Heh, with this ghastly appearance of mine, how can I face him?" Qin Mingyuan said with a self-deprecating laugh upon hearing this.
In truth, he desperately wanted to reunite with Ye Feng, but in his current state, completely paralyzed and emaciated to the bone, looking neither human nor ghost, he dared not.
Furthermore, as a father, he had failed in his paternal duties for over a decade, making him even more ashamed to face his son.
At this moment, Grandpa Qin's expression suddenly turned serious as he spoke, "It's too soon for a reunion. It's better not to reunite for now!"
Butler Zheng, confused, frowned and asked, "Why?"
"Why? Do you remember how Mingyuan disappeared? And how he was ambushed upon his return?" Grandpa Qin asked with a frown, his voice cold.
Upon hearing this, Butler Zheng immediately recalled something and whispered, "Oh, oh, I understand. This is to better protect the young master, right!"
Grandpa Qin nodded, "Exactly! In the eyes of those forces now, our Da Qin family is considered to have no heirs, which is why they haven't targeted us these past few years!"
"If he suddenly reunites with Young Ye, those people will definitely set their sights on him! He hasn't grown strong enough yet, and I don't want him to fall into the same danger as Mingyuan!"
"It's actually better if they don't reunite. Look at Young Ye's current growth rate; it's no less than that of young masters from those prominent families, and he has even more advantages!"
Butler Zheng immediately nodded, "Yes, yes, the master's foresight is truly remarkable!"
"Mmm, Father is right! Young Feng's current growth state is the best! We just need to lend a hand when he needs help!" Qin Mingyuan also chimed in.
A moment later, Ye Feng returned, holding a set of silver needles in his hand.
Seeing the three of them chatting, he asked, "Hey, Grandpa Qin, what were you guys talking about? Why so hushed!"
"We were talking about you!" Grandpa Qin said with a smile.
Ye Feng, confused, asked, "Talking about me? What's there to talk about me!"
"Haha, just kidding! Did you bring the silver needles?" Grandpa Qin quickly changed the subject.
Ye Feng nodded, "Here, I brought them! But it's not convenient to perform it here. You guys can carry him to my room!"
"Alright!"
Thus, the group carried Qin Mingyuan to Ye Feng's room, and Ye Feng began to perform acupuncture on Qin Mingyuan.
As Ye Feng inserted silver needles into Qin Mingyuan's limbs, the Sea God's power was also injected into those meridians through the needles. Qin Mingyuan could clearly feel the changes in his body.
The sensation was itchy, as if many insects were burrowing within him, which made Qin Mingyuan extremely excited.
His limbs had been paralyzed, completely devoid of sensation. Now, the feeling of numbness and itchiness indicated that Ye Feng's treatment was very effective.
An hour later, Ye Feng exhaled, pulling out all the silver needles.
"The acupuncture treatment is finished for today! It has some effect, but it won't be easy to fully recover! It will take at least half a year of treatment!" Ye Feng explained.
Qin Mingyuan, upon hearing this, hurriedly said, "Thank you, the effect is very good! Before, I had no feeling at all, but now, although I still can't walk, I can feel the numbness and itchiness!"
"Haha! That's already fantastic! As long as you persevere, I believe you'll get better with time!" Grandpa Qin said excitedly.
Ye Feng nodded, "Yes, yes. By the way! I'm going to the Rocky Island Sea Domain tomorrow and will likely be staying there for a while. If you have nothing else to do, you can come with me!"
"Rocky Island Sea Domain?" Grandpa Qin looked puzzled.
Qin Mingyuan and Butler Zheng also looked bewildered, seemingly having never heard of this place.
Seeing their confused expressions, Ye Feng explained, "Oh, oh, I forgot to mention, that's where I raise my fish, about a hundred nautical miles east of the East Sea! Your Uncle Mingyuan's condition will improve much faster there!"
The Rocky Island Sea Domain housed the Sea God Palace, which constantly emanated Sea God's power. If Qin Mingyuan went there, his body would be nourished by the Sea God's power, leading to a faster recovery.
Otherwise, relying solely on the Sea God's power within Ye Feng, it might not even heal him in a year, let alone half a year.
The three of them finally understood and hurriedly said, "Oh, oh, alright! We don't have anything going on recently. Will this bother you!"
"No, don't worry!" Ye Feng replied.
And so, the next day, Ye Feng led the three of them towards the Rocky Island Sea Domain.
Half a day later, they finally arrived at the Rocky Island Sea Domain.
Upon their arrival, they were stunned by the environment.
Bright sunshine, a blue sky, calm waters, lush green islands... everything on Rocky Island exuded tranquility and peace.
The feeling was such that just a glance at it would instantly calm one's mind.
Soon, Ye Feng arranged accommodations for them and said, "Alright, you guys rest here for a while. I have some matters to attend to, so I'll be busy."
"Yes, yes, yes, you don't need to worry about us!" the three of them said with smiles.
After Ye Feng left, he first checked if everything in his fish farming pens was in order, then found the person in charge to inquire about recent developments.
Once Ye Feng confirmed that everything was fine, he returned to his room and, using the Sea God's Trident, teleported to the Sea God Palace a thousand meters below the surface.
However, the moment Ye Feng teleported away, a figure suddenly appeared in his room.
"Huh? What, what's going on? He, he actually disappeared right under my nose? How is this possible?" the person exclaimed in shock.
He quickly searched the room and its surroundings but found nothing.
If Ye Feng saw this person, he would be greatly surprised, for this person was none other than General Meng, the Grandmaster of Heavy Swords, who had severely injured the Black Lotus Sect that day.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng had already entered the Sea God Palace. He glanced at the dark egg, which showed no change, still quietly absorbing the dense Sea God's power.
"Forget it, I won't bother with you! I'll rest properly first!" Ye Feng muttered and sat down cross-legged beside the egg.
On Rocky Island, Butler Zheng and the other two felt the surroundings and were astonished.
"I can feel it, this place is filled with the same energy as in Feng'er's body!" Qin Mingyuan exclaimed.
Butler Zheng, standing beside him, said, "Not only that, have you sensed it? The spiritual energy here is also extremely dense!"
"How did this kid find such a blessed place, with such dense energies of both kinds!" Grandpa Qin was astonished.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside the three of them; it was the heavy sword man whom Butler Zheng called General Meng.
"Hey, why did you suddenly appear! You scared me to death!"
His appearance startled Butler Zheng, who muttered a few displeased words.
Grandpa Qin and Qin Mingyuan also looked at him with confusion.
"Didn't I tell you to follow the young master? Why are you here!" Grandpa Qin asked.
General Meng knelt on the ground and said, "Master, I am extremely sorry. I don't know why the young master suddenly disappeared..."
