Chapter 2022: Chapter 2019: Already a Grandpa?
The Nine Netherworld Phoenix did not choose to leave with Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan glanced at the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, leaving only one sentence.
"Just remember what was said before."
Watching Ye Xuan’s departing figure, a trace of gloom flashed in the eyes of the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.
But it ultimately said nothing.
Actually, by now, it had mostly confirmed.
In the future, Ye Xuan and it will simply not be on the same side.
The two will eventually become enemies.
But no matter what, if Ye Xuan hadn’t spared its life, it would have long been dead.
Although it is known as the Lord of Death, with a violent and murderous nature.
There are certain matters where it still has its limits.
Agreed upon matters must ultimately be fulfilled.
It only hopes Ye Xuan will quickly let it complete those tasks.
So as not to wait for that battle to arrive.
However...
The Nine Netherworld Phoenix understands better that these are merely desires after all.
Based on its understanding of Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan will surely wait until after that battle begins to make it fulfill its promises.
Certainly.
The premise is that it can reclaim its true form.
Otherwise, it can’t complete the promise.
And if it can’t reclaim its true form, Ye Xuan probably wouldn’t take interest in it.
————
Outside the Thunder Pond.
Breathing in the fresh air.
It seems all emotions have been soothed.
Ye Xuan looked at the hand he was holding, belonging to Ye Sixing.
The girl’s pretty face still held curiosity.
Since stepping out from the Dark Thunder, she has always maintained her curiosity.
In this world, everything is fresh to her.
Worth investigating.
"So beautiful..."
Ye Sixing uttered softly.
This place is Fu Lei Heaven in the Heavenly State.
Outside the Thunder Pond, one can see various spectacular phenomena atop the Sky Dome.
Dragons swimming across the Sky Dome.
Sunrise in the east.
Phoenix calling across the Nine Heavens.
Strange lights and auspicious colors.
In the Heavenly State, it is possible to witness all kinds of wondrous phenomena.
And to Ye Sixing, this was unfamiliar.
"By the way, dad."
At that moment, Ye Sixing looked at Ye Xuan and softly said, "Just now, that Nine Netherworld Phoenix has issues with you."
Ye Xuan nodded slightly: "I know."
Ye Sixing was somewhat curious: "Then why don’t you expose it?"
Ye Xuan rubbed Ye Sixing’s head, softly saying, "Knowing doesn’t mean you have to reveal it."
Ye Sixing seemed half-understood and simply uttered an ’oh’, no longer asking.
"Let’s go, dad will take you home."
Ye Xuan said softly.
"Home?"
Ye Sixing’s pretty face was full of anticipation.
"Yes, home." Ye Xuan reiterated.
"Great, let’s go see dad’s residence!" Ye Sixing exclaimed excitedly.
"Home is not just a residence."
"Huh? The home I know is similar to a Demon Beast’s lair, isn’t that so?" Ye Sixing was a bit puzzled.
"Where the heart finds peace, there is home." Ye Xuan patiently explained.
"Where the heart finds peace..." Ye Sixing murmured, suddenly showing a sweet smile, clinging to Ye Xuan’s arm, leaning softly against him, saying tenderly, "Then my home is wherever dad is."
Ye Xuan looked into the distance, softly saying, "What about your mom then..."
Ye Sixing looked at Ye Xuan, "I haven’t met mom yet."
Ye Xuan felt slightly melancholic: "You’re a lot like her, you’ll have to be good when you meet her."
Ye Sixing nodded repeatedly: "I’ll listen to dad."
Then, Ye Sixing asked, "Will we see mom this time when we go home?"
Ye Xuan shook his head: "She’s very busy, probably won’t be able to."
Ye Sixing inexplicably felt a bit down: "Oh..."
Ye Xuan seeing this, was somewhat surprised: "You haven’t even met your mom, why so sorrowful?"
Ye Sixing shook her head: "I don’t know, just feel strangely empty inside..."
Ye Xuan smiled faintly.
Didn’t express any comfort.
He was contemplating a question.
Whether at the moment of Ye Sixing’s birth, he and Youwei already existed.
In Ye Sixing’s heart, he is dad, Youwei is mom.
On his side, it’s easily explained.
But what about Youwei’s side, what’s the situation?
Even Ye Xuan wasn’t fully sure.
Forget it.
Ask Youwei when they meet.
Ye Xuan took Ye Sixing, flying for half a month before reaching Daozhou.
Along the way, offering Ye Sixing many experiences.
Ye Sixing noticeably became much steadier.
Increasingly similar to Ye Xuan.
After returning to Daozhou, Ye Xuan did not go to Zhongxuan Mountain, instead heading to Wan’an City in Yun Country.
Grandfather Ye Hongli, uncle Ye Mingyang, second uncle Ye Minghai were all there.
As for Brother Hao, Sister Yuxuan, and younger sister Ye Ling’er, none were in Wan’an City.
Since this lineage returned to Eternal Mountain Ye Family, they have mostly been cultivating on Eternal Mountain.
While grandfather Ye Hongli and both uncles have spent most of their lives in Wan’an City, they have become accustomed to it, unwilling to go to Eternal Mountain Ye Family, so they remained in Wan’an City.
When Ye Xuan returned with a daughter, the three were shocked.
They truly couldn’t understand how Ye Xuan, walking the Emperor Road, could come out with a daughter.
Yet looking at Ye Sixing’s appearance, it was hard to say she wasn’t Ye Xuan’s daughter.
Especially with Ye Sixing sweetly calling great-grandfather, granduncle, second granduncle, they couldn’t help but admit.
"Dad and mom, where are they?"
Ye Xuan inquired after Ye Mingtian and Jiang Ye.
"Said to be visiting your maternal grandfather, should be returning soon." Old Ye Hongli replied.
"Maternal grandfather..."
Ye Xuan murmured.
Regarding Jiang Family’s relatives, he currently only knows cousin Jiang Ya, and Jiang Ya’s father Jiang Chengdao.
Other people are completely unknown.
In the timeline nine thousand years ago, even if a maternal grandfather existed, likely he was among the younger generation of Jiang Family. Back then, Ye Xuan only knew several Jiang Family old monsters and two named disciples.
Others were completely unknown.
At this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly felt an impulse.
"Sixing, follow me."
Ye Xuan called out.
Ye Sixing, who was squatting on the ground playing with a kitten, heard the call, immediately got up and ran towards Ye Xuan: "Dad, where are we going?"
"Taking you to see grandpa and grandma."
Ye Xuan said with a smile.
Ye Sixing was instantly delighted: "Great!"
"Great-grandpa, granduncle, second granduncle, we’re leaving!"
Ye Sixing didn’t forget to turn back to greet Old Ye Hongli, along with Ye Mingyang and Ye Minghai.
"Slow down." Ye Hongli waved his hand.
Watching Ye Xuan and Ye Sixing leave.
Strong and silent Ye Mingyang seemed somewhat sullen.
Thin and slightly gaunt, with a prominent knife scar on his face cutting from below his left eye to his chin, making a particularly grim appearance, Ye Minghai at this moment held his chest with one arm, while supporting his chin with the other, seemingly smiling: "Brother, you say how did little Xuan move so fast, we’re granduncles already?"
Ye Mingyang looked at his second brother, saying nothing.
But Old Ye Hongli, whose hair was white and eyes were heavy, seemed spirited, smiling and saying, "What’s the big deal, back then your brother married at fourteen, had little Hao at sixteen, and Yuxuan at eighteen."
Normally quiet Ye Mingyang couldn’t help but blush, but being exposed by the old man, could only cough lightly in slight protest.
"Minghai, now that little Xuan’s child is so grown, perhaps you should also consider things?"
Old Ye looked at amused Ye Minghai, smiling.
Ye Minghai’s face immediately fell.
