Chu Yunhai then let out a small sigh of relief, thank goodness, the Sky-Opening Axe still can’t be used, so Qin Yu won’t take the Sky-Opening Axe away!

After all, it is the number one Divine Artifact of the Ancient Martial World; even if it can’t be used, keeping it at the Shanyang Sect still carries prestige.

"Husband, I’m a bit hungry, can we stop researching this broken axe?"

Qin Yu fondly ruffled Lin Haixin’s head and laughed, "This is not just any ordinary axe! I have confirmed that it truly is the Sky-Opening Axe!"

"Even if it really is the Sky-Opening Axe, it’s no use if you can’t wield it," Lin Haixin pouted.

"Who said I can’t use it? Just now the Sky-Opening Axe was still very heavy, but it has already become much lighter than before I adjusted it! Grandpa Yang, take a look, can it be adjusted further?" Qin Yu asked with a smile, looking toward the Heavenly Secret Elder.

The face of the Heavenly Secret Elder lit up with ecstatic delight; he had feared there would be no change at all, but as long as there was a change, he was confident that he could let Qin Yu wield the Sky-Opening Axe!

"Yes! Of course! From my observations, this scale is divided into three levels; we just used the second level, I will immediately adjust it to the third level for you."

"Thank you," Qin Yu said with a smile.

The Heavenly Secret Elder picked up the Sky-Opening Axe and once again fiddled with the patterns on the handle. With a click, the pattern moved once more.

To confirm there were no other levels, the Heavenly Secret Elder exerted force once again. This time, he felt the pattern seemed to have reached a critical value; no matter how hard he tried, the pattern did not budge.

"This is the limit. If it still can’t be used, I have no other solution," he said.

The Heavenly Secret Elder handed the axe to Qin Yu with a look full of anticipation.

Under everyone’s gaze, Qin Yu took a deep breath and raised his hand to receive the Sky-Opening Axe passed by the Heavenly Secret Elder.

As the elder’s large hand let go, Qin Yu felt the weight of the axe soar! The axe dragged Qin Yu’s arm down rapidly and landed heavily on the ground!

With a thud, a small pit was smashed into the ground!

Although the pit on the ground was not as large as before, only a few centimeters deep, Chu Yunhai still breathed a sigh of relief!

Great! The Sky-Opening Axe is staying!

Chu Yunhai forced out a look of regret and said, "What a pity. Alliance Hierarch Qin still can’t use it. It seems the Sky-Opening Axe is just a useless rib."

The Heavenly Secret Elder also showed a look of disappointment—Qin Yu’s inability to wield the Sky-Opening Axe meant their efforts had been in vain!

Everyone was disappointed, the only indifferent one was Lin Haixin, thinking it was just a broken axe and not even pretty!

What does it matter if it can be used or not?

Lin Haixin tugged at Qin Yu’s arm and whispered, "Husband, it’s just a broken axe. If you can’t use it, then you can’t. When we get back to Huanhai, let grandpa get you another Divine Artifact."

"Xin’er, you’re sweet, but you’re my woman, how can I take your things?"

Qin Yu said beamingly as he rubbed Lin Haixin’s head, which made her roll her eyes in annoyance.

Hearing this, Chu Yunhai’s forehead broke out in heavy sweat! What the hell? Qin Yu didn’t question Lin Haixin’s words, which meant she truly came from Huanhai?

Chu Yunhai pulled the Heavenly Secret Elder aside and asked in a low voice, "Elder Yang, who is Miss Lin’s grandfather?"

"Xin’er’s grandfather is Lin Xiaotian, the former Huan Sovereign of Huanhai," the Heavenly Secret Elder replied frankly.

Gulp, Chu Yunhai swallowed hard, erasing the last bit of wishful thinking from his mind!

Between Huanhai and Shanyang Sect, who would Heaven’s Gate choose?
