After Favorability Is Maxed - Chapter 347: The Ye Family Head Visits
347 The Ye Family Head Visits
The Guihuan Elder was an old senior of the Black Tortoise lineage of the sea cleaving tower. He was one of the 28 constellations, Xu Su Constellation, and a mighty figure in the Crossing Calamity stage. His original form was a Guihuan Python whose eyes were connected to the Tianshu earth vein.
Liu Yuan recalled some information about the Guihuan Elder from the game.
Speaking of which, the one who contributed the most in the drawing of the Tianshu geomancy map in his hand was Guihuan Elder, which could be considered as a cause and effect.
However, as a player, he had only come into contact with NPCs of this level in the later stages of the game. Furthermore, Liu Yuan was not a butterfly in the plot at that time. After Gu Chang turned into a boss, the Gu family did not have a good ending. The Black Tortoise’s Secret Treasure had been snatched away by the Immortal cultivation sects. Gu Siyin did not have the chance to develop her Black Tortoise bloodline, so she naturally could not come into contact with the Sea Slashing tower.
Now, because of his actions in Chiyu Villa, he had directly reversed the fate of Gu Chang and a group of people. Gu Siyin had also embarked on the path of an Immortal cultivator because of this. The bloodline of the Black Tortoise had awakened, and it was only then that it had been discovered by the Guihuan Elder.
Since the Guihuan Elder had gone to Chiyu Villa, he should have met that Xie Blabbermouth… Oh, no, Xie Qian.
A thought flashed across Liu Yuan’s mind. After comforting Gu Siyin, he bowed and said, “Greetings, Senior Guihuan. Siyin is young and mischievous. I’ll need your guidance.”
Crossing Calamity stage cultivators were top powerhouses no matter where they were. With his current strength, he could not afford to be reckless, so he naturally had to be respectful.
Not to mention that the other party was from the Sea Slashing Tower, which was considered part of his family… Oh, now that Gu Siyin had become his disciple, they were ‘closer’ to each other. He could not neglect her even more. Cough, cough. At least he had to maintain a slightly more serious image.
He did not know that the old man had already seen through his act of hiding in Ling Hua’s room alone, but he did not say it out loud.
The Guihuan Elder scrutinized the young man in front of him. He had to admit that this guy, who was highly regarded by the Dao Master, was a monster in terms of age and cultivation. He had even stirred up a storm in the battle that overturned the Jade Mirage Sect. More importantly… The relationship between the Saint and him was not shallow, and he was probably being nurtured as a disciple.
However, after all that talk, he still managed to kidnap Divine Lord Black Tortoise!
Elder Hu Huan felt indignant, as if his cabbage had been eaten by a pig, he snorted. “You’re still polite, but there’s one thing you’re wrong about. Divine Lords can’t be as ‘naughty’ as you.”
Liu Yuan sweated. This old man clearly meant something. He could not help but turn his eyes to look at Ling Hua next to him, but he happened to meet the latter’s eyes. The two guiltily looked away.
In terms of their relationship, she was indeed a little too ‘naughty’.
Fortunately, the old man did not have the intention to make a big deal out of this and passed it by after coughing for a while. However, Gu Siyin had not seen her Brother Junxuan for a long time and was filled with longing. She pulled the old man aside and begged for three days of forgiveness so that she could stay at the Jade Mirage Sect and get along with Liu Yuan to relieve her longing.
These few days naturally passed by in the blink of an eye. No matter how unwilling Gu Siyin was, she could only bid Liu Yuan farewell with tears in her eyes.
After a few steps, the little girl ran back, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed Liu Yuan on the lips.
Gu Siyin blushed and said softly, “Brother Junxuan, the next time we meet, I, I’ll grow up and give it to you…”
Elder Xun Huan’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He pulled Gu Siyin and disappeared without looking back.
Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then could not help but laugh. This old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years treated Gu Siyin like his own granddaughter and couldn’t bear to be provoked.
However, You Su was the only one in the Azure Dragon lineage. Divine Lord Vermilion Bird had already squeezed him dry a few hundred times and Little Siyin was about to become Divine Lord Black Tortoise.
He basically had conquered more than half of the Four Symbols Divine Lords!
“I wonder if Shaoying has any sisters…” Liu Yuan touched his chin and began to think about what was in the pot.
He had just sent away the reluctant Gu Siyin and was thinking about how to ask Xie Qian’s simple-minded guard when he received the news that the head of the Xuanyin family had come to congratulate the new Sect Master.
The head of the Xuanyin family, Ye Danqing, was Ye Cike’s biological mother. In other words, she was his mother-in-law in name.
The outside world was in an uproar because of this news. The four great families had always lived in seclusion, especially the Xuanyin family, which was an all-female family. They basically did not appear in public.
Back then, Ye Cike’s jealousy of Liu Yuan against the Green Lotus Swordsman and the Cith Lord of Ten Thousand Swords had already been enough to make people dumbfounded. However, everyone thought that it was the spontaneous actions of the younger generation. Even the later rumors that the Xuanyin family wanted to recruit Liu Yuan as their son-in-law had only been targeted at an individual. But now that Ye Danqing had personally visited the Jade Mirage Sect, she had truly taken a stand.
Some said that Ye Cike’s love was too deep, and after Liu Junxuan ‘died’, the Xuanyin family decided to cooperate with the Jade Mirage Sect to give their Young Mistress some comfort.
Some people said that this was because the new Sect Master of the Jade Mirage sect was a woman, and she had the same goal as the Xuanyin family, which was full of women.
Liu Yuan, however, revealed a meaningful smile.
Rather than saying that they were like-minded and hit it off, it was better to say that they all wanted him…
He had not seen Ye Danqing’s face since he came to this world. The only time he had seen him was during the long-distance call.
And now, this nominal mother-in-law had come all the way here to collect the medicine, and the first time they met, she had been betrayed by Duan Lanruo and the others.
The Xuanyang Pearl was in his body, and Duan Lanruo had used him as a drug primer to secretly concoct an ointment that could adjust the short lifespan of the Xuanyin bloodline, which was due to excessive yin and declining yang. It was equivalent to the life-saving straw of the Xuanyin family.
However, the only portion of the ointment was swallowed by Chuichui. Ye Danqing was duped and actually thought that she had to take the medicine personally, which was why she came to the Jade Mirage sect.
It was very different from what outsiders had guessed, and it made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
In fact, Liu Yuan did not expect his mother-in-law to be so gullible. She was clearly in charge of an entire family and had such a big daughter, but she was still a blank piece of paper when it came to matters between men and women. She knew nothing.
Liu Yuan looked at the mature beauty in front of him, holding back his smile, and solemnly bowed, “Liu Junxuan, your son-in-law, greets Master Ye. I’ve always heard Cike praise you, and today I see that you truly live up to your name. If I’ve offended you in the past, please forgive me.”
Ye Danqing originally did not have a good impression of this little thief who had stolen the Xuanyang Pearl and a girl’s heart. Before she came, she had rehearsed more than ten ways to use her aura to mock and curse. She came over angrily, and her expression was naturally serious and cold. She was ready to show off her power.
But now, before she could show her power, Liu Yuan had lowered himself and put on a serious look. A gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, and his words were appropriate. He was like a polite young man, completely different from what Ye Danqing had imagined.
Even, even… It was very in line with the Ye Family Head’s position of an outstanding young talent.
Ye Danqing was silent for a while. The momentum she had been building up collapsed in an instant.
The hatred she had for Liu Yuan in the past and the faint affection she had for him now were contradictory. It formed a very subtle feeling that made her feel uncomfortable and she did not know how to say it.
