338 The Day Ling Hua Bes the Sect Master Is the Day Xuanyin Family Visits
The City of Ten Thousand Swords. The City Lords’ Mansion. The study.
Duan Lanruo’s beautiful eyes widened slightly as she looked at the woman in front of her, who had snatched the power of themunication array away with an angry expression. She blinked and said softly, “Ye Family Head, don’t be impulsive. Perhaps there are other ways.”
Ye Danqing flicked her sleeve and stared at the array as if she could kill the bastard who had taken her daughter away with her eyes. She said angrily, “What other way is there? You said it yourself, this is the only way!”
The corners of Duan Lanruo’s mouth curled up into a profound smile, and she continued without changing her expression, “But you can’t go and get it yourself. Moreover, it’s really not convenient for Junxuan to do it now… It’s better to let Cike go.”
She turned her head to look at the young girl who was secretly peeking in from outside the door, and the two of them looked at each other.
Ye Cike felt extremely guilty.
“Meow?” Chuichui sneaked out of her arms, shook her ears, and stuck out its pink little tongue to lick her paws.
The demon beast dragon thought disdainfully, ‘Hmph, I’m not that stupid. How can I eat everything? That’s too damaging to the dignity of the Scarlet Mist Flowing Scaled Wrym. It’s obviously the instructions of this little girl, she wants to hide it.”
However, when she thought of this, she remembered that her originally beautiful red scales had turned dark blue and felt a wave of depression.
The orange cat drooped her ears in a daze, thinking that she had to find a way to change back.
Ye Cike walked in with Chuichui in her arms and said in a low voice, “Mother, I can go to him…”
Will you be able toe back in one piece?
She was here talking about Junxuan every day. Back then, even if that man did not do anything, you would still rush to him and stick to him. He’s going to eat your bones clean!
Even if they were almost in the midst of marriage, they had not decided yet, had they?
At this time, she had to be careful. She could not let this little bastard get what he wanted. If she took the initiative like this, she would suffer more losses in the future.
If the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family were to lower her head and act like a lowly servant in the future, how would that be appropriate?
The more Ye Danqing thought about it, the angrier she got. She red at the cat in her daughter’s arms. Looking up, she said coldly, “You can’t go! Didn’t you hear what he said? Divine Lord Vermilion Bird is by his side and everyone knows the Phoenix’s temper. Although she has just achieved Nirvana, she must have recovered to the Form Synthesis stage at the very least to be able to break the restriction of the forbidden area of the Mythical me Sect. It’s a waste of time for you to go there. What would I do if something were to happen to you?”
“Oh…” Ye Cike nodded.
Normally, Ye Danqing would be able to sense that something was wrong with such a well-behaved child like Ye Cike. But now, she had lost most of her rationality in her anger, so she was not suspicious of her daughter’s sudden rebellion.
Ye Danqing turned to the Sound Tracking Array and said coldly, “Jiang Feng, or should I call you Liu Yuan now? If you can really save the Xuanyin family, then I will marry Cike to you, and all the previous matters can be written off in one stroke.”
She paused and said slowly, “However, don’t even think of using this to plot against the entire Xuanyin family. I’m only going there for the benefit of the entire family. You better remember this – I am the current Head of the Xuanyin family, Ye Danqing, and also Cike’s mother. If you have any improper thoughts, think about this clearly first!”
“Otherwise, even if I die, I will make you pay the price!”
Her stern and cold tone was business-like, and Liu Yuan could feel the resentment in her voice from thousands of miles away.
It was probably because the problem had been deeply rooted in the Xuanyin family since its birth. When they finally found a solution, it was suddenly stolen and eaten by a cat.
This feeling of hope being suddenly shattered made the Xuanyin Family Head burst with anger. She had been burdened with a lot of responsibilities and was already in a terrible fix because of her daughter’s matter, and this was a tipping point.
Most importantly, she could not understand how such a half-hearted person could win the favor of so many women! This was a rotten person!
Ye Danqing was furious and puffed up her cheeks out of habit. This was a habit she had when she was a girl and she had not changed it until now.
It was only because she had to y the role of a mother and the head of the family that she deliberately hid it.
Now, she was so angry that she did not even try to hide it.
Liu Yuan, who was on the other side of the Sound Tracking Array, was a little surprised. This seemingly coquettish Ye Family Head actually had a deep understanding of his ‘I want everything’ nature.
It was actually a warning…
Liu Yuan smacked his lips as he listened to the angry pantinging from the opposite side. It belonged to thispletely unfamiliar woman who he had a special rtionship with. He imagined how beautiful Ye Cike’s angry face would be when she grew up.
Was she trying to say ‘even if I die, I won’t let you touch it’?
But even though she talked big, didn’t she still take the ointment before that? Since she was the head of the family, she had topromise for the sake of the family.
If she really did not want topromise, she should have thought of other ways to get it.
The Ye Family Head was thinking that if it could be done once, it could be done again. Since it had alreadye to this, why couldn’t she do it this way? After crossing that line, it would be difficult to step up again.
Liu Yuan was amazed. City Lord Duan’s skills were profound and she was really powerful.
However, a melon that was forcefully twisted was not sweet. If the Ye Family Head was really unwilling, she would not overstep the boundaries, but if she was half-rejecting and half-epting… He was also very interested in it.
He smiled and finally said his first words to his mother-inw from thousands of miles away, “You must be joking, Master Ye. Although I can’t say for sure that my feelings for Cike can be seen by the sun and the moon, they are indeed sincere. Back then, I identally stole the Xuanyang Pearl, which led to this result. I also hope that I can make up for the Xuanyin family and not scheme for anything…”
“To put it bluntly, the City of Ten Thousand Swords and Bi Luo Mansion have to obey my orders. The Sky Treasure Pavilion has to give me some face as my Grandmaster. The demonic sect’s branch is in my hands and Divine Lord Vermillion Bird is by my side. With at least ten cultivators at the Form Synthesis stage and two cultivators at the Crossing Cmity stage, I really don’t have to waste my energy on the Xuanyin family.”
The aristocratic families were neutral forces, so he was not worried about exposing his control over Bi Luo Mansion and the demonic sect.
He only said this to raise his position and improve his mother-inw’s impression of him, so that the Ye Family Head wouldn’t be blindly confident.
He was referring to the matter of marrying Ye Cike to him.
Ye Danqing was stunned for a moment. She calmed down, realizing that the anger had gone to her head. She felt that the voiceing from the other side was young and gentle. The calm tone of the voice was telling her something that was almost shocking.
In her imagination, this Jiang Feng should be a shameless viin with an oily ent. However, in these few sentences, he had at least disyed an ambitious giant who had formed alliances with others.
However, from his tone, it was as if the Xuanyin family was not worth plotting against. Even if that was the truth, Ye Danqing could not maintain her dignity. With a cold expression, she said, “It’s good that you know.”
Liu Yuan vaguely heard the sound of a sleeve being flicked, probably because she had left.
Soon after, Ye Cike, Ling Zhen, and Chuichui took turns reminiscing about the past, and themunication was cut off with Duan Lanruo’s gentle farewell and blessings.
Before she finished, she chuckled and added, “Oh, by the way, Master Ye said that the day Ling Hua ascends to the position of Sect Master is the day the master of the Xuanyin family visits the Jade Mirage Sect.
