Chapter 1403: Chapter 1403: One Day on Earth Equals Fifteen Days in the Martial Realm

"However, Ye Luo, you don’t need to be too worried. In fact, we also found out later that the time in the Martial Realm is completely different from the time on Earth. Due to the abundance of Spiritual Power, time in the Martial Realm passes much faster than on Earth. We have roughly estimated that one year in the Martial Realm is less than a month on Earth, with an approximate ratio of fifteen to one! Fifteen days in the Martial Realm is equal to one day on Earth!"

The sudden remark from Li Wuyue made Ye Luo’s eyes widen with surprise. Ye Luo had heard a saying while on Earth: One day in the heavens is like one year on Earth!

That was the time ratio in Earth’s mythical stories.

And the main setting of these mythical stories was the Heavenly Court!

Once, Ye Luo had believed that the Heavenly Palace Corporation was the Heavenly Court from the myths.

But now, it seemed that wasn’t the case. The truth was the complete opposite.

Fifteen days in the Martial Realm only equated to one day on Earth!

By that calculation, in fact, Ye Luo had been away from Earth for barely more than a dozen days!

One could say that for Ye Luo, this was absolutely fantastic news.

Because Ye Luo no longer had to worry about not having enough time!

As long as the time ratio was different, Ye Luo would have ample time to find a way back to Earth and didn’t have to worry that he wouldn’t even be able to witness the birth of his own son!

This trip to the Heavenly Palace Corporation was not in vain for Ye Luo; on the contrary, it was the right decision!

Feeling as if a huge boulder that had been pressing on his heart had finally landed, Ye Luo felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

"Haha, thank you, Wuyue. You’ve given me some incredibly good news! Alright, I won’t bother you any longer. I’ll come to visit in a few days!"

Content in his heart, although Ye Luo still hadn’t found a way to return to Earth this time, at least he now understood the time difference between Earth and the Martial Realm, which meant he didn’t have to worry too much.

Of course, Ye Luo would continue to persevere in searching for a way back to Earth because, after all, he must return to Earth! To bring back his family!

As Ye Luo was preparing to leave, Li Wuyue called out to him directly: "Wait a moment, Ye Luo. Are you really just planning to leave like this?"

Ye Luo was about to nod in response but then realized that what Li Wuyue meant was that she wanted Ye Luo to join the Heavenly Palace Corporation.

Ye Luo was not adverse to joining the Heavenly Palace Corporation. In fact, in the Martial Realm, it might be the only place with people from Huaxia on Earth.

So naturally, there was no way Ye Luo would object.

But not now.

"Wuyue, I know what you’re trying to say, but don’t worry. I am a person from Huaxia, no matter where I go. In a few days, I plan to join the Royal Academy. Perhaps I will be of greater help to everyone at the Royal Academy!"

Ye Luo expressed his thoughts.

Li Wuyue was slightly taken aback upon hearing this: "What do you mean, you qualify to join the Royal Academy? That’s impossible. Our Heavenly Palace Corporation has tried everything but can’t send anyone to the Royal Academy. How did you manage it?"

For this, Ye Luo naturally found it difficult to explain. Firstly, he did indeed get the opportunity due to Yun Liancheng’s recommendation, but most importantly, it was Ye Luo’s own strength that mattered, otherwise no recommendation would have been effective.

Ye Luo didn’t want to explain, not because he was worried about what Li Wuyue and the others might do if they knew, but because it might seem somewhat demeaning.

After all, no one from the entire Heavenly Palace Corporation had qualified, but Ye Luo had.

"I can’t explain the specifics, let’s just say I owe it to a friend’s blessing. But rest assured, if I don’t join the Royal Academy, I will definitely choose to join the Heavenly Palace Corporation!"

"With your word, I feel assured. However, since you are one of our Huaxia people, you are already part of the Heavenly Palace Corporation. Here, this is our Identity Token, which is also linked to the internal network platform of the Heavenly Palace Corporation. You can trade some of the things you want here and seek help from others. Of course, with this token, visiting the Heavenly Palace Corporation will be much less of a hassle!"

As she spoke, Li Wuyue tossed a token to Ye Luo. In the Martial Realm, tokens were widely used for various purposes, including as symbols of identity and proof of identity.

Of course, just an Identity Token was not very useful; the most important aspect was the things it contained within.

Ye Luo certainly wasn’t going to refuse—after all, he had certain ties with the Heavenly Palace Corporation.

Upon receiving the token, Ye Luo headed towards the exit.

But just as he reached the entrance, he heard noisy voices coming from outside.

...

"Boy, do you want to die for daring to ruin my fun as a mere gatekeeper?"

A voice came through, seemingly indicating that someone was having a conflict with the gatekeepers of the Heavenly Palace Corporation.

At the same time, another voice rang out.

"Kid, the lady isn’t from your Heavenly Palace Corporation. Can’t you see her identity? She’s just a songstress. I’ll naturally go to her owner and buy her. For now, if you continue to obstruct, don’t blame me for not showing face to your Heavenly Palace Corporation!"

Lady? Songstress!

Ye Luo immediately quickened his pace because he knew that this conflict was probably caused by Lu Yi.

This wasn’t the first time Lu Yi had instigated a conflict, and the reason was simple: her appearance, as well as her status as a songstress!

So-called songstresses in the Great Tang Empire were of low status and allowed to be bought and sold at will. In fact, most songstresses stayed within their own estates and seldom ventured out, and even when they did, they would wear a veil to avoid trouble.

Ye Luo wasn’t aware of these customs, which is why he never took any measure to disguise Lu Yi when taking her out.

Quickly, Ye Luo arrived outside, where Lu Yi was being shielded by two gatekeepers of the Heavenly Palace Corporation. In front of them was a group of young men.

However, Ye Luo could tell at first glance that these men were probably not causing trouble just for Lu Yi; she was likely just an excuse for them, as Ye Luo spotted several people lurking nearby, who clearly had higher cultivation levels than these young men.

Even more distant, Ye Luo spotted guards!

Adding to this, the young men seemed to intermittently glance towards the inside of the Heavenly Palace Corporation, leading Ye Luo to conclude that these people were looking to cause trouble for the Heavenly Palace Corporation.

Ye Luo suddenly remembered something that Li Wuyue mentioned—the Heavenly Palace Corporation was in a rather precarious position, even within the confines of the Great Tang Empire, and it had quite a few enemies.
