Qin Zhantian had sent for Ye Qingchen early in the morning. Hearing that Qin Zhantian would attempt to climb the Stepping Heaven Ladder today, the people from the Rising Sun Pavilion had also gathered early to watch. They were, however, somewhat puzzled to see Ye Qingchen standing by Qin Zhantian's side.
An Elder from the Rising Sun Pavilion spoke up, asking Qin Zhantian, "Family Head, the Stepping Heaven Ladder has never allowed outsiders to climb it. Moreover, even Qin Family disciples must have outstanding merits to be granted permission to ascend it."
Qin Zhantian glanced at the Elder and said coldly, "Do I need you to teach me how to do things? Ye Qingchen is my grandson-in-law. Doesn't that make him a member of the Qin Family? Furthermore, he saved my life. Is that not an outstanding merit? As the Family Head of the Qin Family, am I not qualified to allow Ye Qingchen to climb the Stepping Heaven Ladder?"
