How could it not be strange! This, this rope tying method is designed to humiliate people, and she was only wearing a small dress! Ye Danqing frowned, and a blush of shame appeared on her fair and beautiful face. She bit her lips lightly, then opened her eyes wide, remembering that she was ambushed by the Wanjian City Lord Duan Lanruo, and was directly knocked unconscious after being poisoned... There is no doubt that the room in front of me is Duan Lanruo's bedroom. But now there was no one in the room, and it was quiet. Ye Danqing moved his body and found that his cultivation was also restricted by the rope. He remembered that he heard his daughter's voice just before he fell into a coma, and his heart sank. "Ci Ke..." Ye Danqing muttered to himself, frowning, "What exactly does Duan Lanruo want to do?" As a senior member of Jiange and the lord of Wanjian City, she represents the attitude of one side. Taking action against the head of the Xuanyin family is basically equivalent to declaring war. Because of Ci Ke's incident, the Tianhuan Sword was handed over, and the Xuanyin Family could only temporarily ease the relationship with Jiange. Originally, this was a good thing for Jiange, but what was Duan Lanruo trying to do by doing this now? As she was thinking this, the tightly closed door creaked slightly. The wooden door was pushed open, and the woman who walked into the room was wearing a crimson purple dress with wide sleeves. The square collar with dark-patterned edges revealed a large area of fair skin. Her long black hair was tied into a high bun. Her expression had a hint of laziness as if she had just woken up in the morning, and her eyes and eyebrows showed the charm of a mature beauty. She was no different from the Duan Lanruo that Ye Danqing saw before he fell into a coma. She seemed very calm and composed, and did not look at all proud of having grasped the leader of another powerful force, or as if she was planning something.
The way she looked at herself was strange. It passed from the face, to the chest, waist, legs in turn, then back to the face, and suddenly a smile appeared. That was not sarcasm, but satisfaction. Ye Danqing couldn't help but tighten her legs a little bit, feeling very strange in her heart, an indescribable strangeness. Obviously, the other person was a woman of the same level of cultivation as himself, and even lower in status, but why was there such a strange look in his eyes, not the condescending look of looking down on a prisoner? "mother!" The clear and pleasant voice of a young girl suddenly came from behind Duan Lanruo. Ye Danqing was stunned, and then saw her daughter running past Duan Lanruo and jogging over. She said in a worried voice, "Mom, are you okay?" Ye Ci Ke reached out and helped his mother up. When his eyes fell on the red rope on her body, he couldn't help but blush and his heart beat fast. This, this rope...what's going on with that woman? She suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and turned back to say, "City Lord Duan, you said you wouldn't do anything to my mother." Duan Lanruo came over leisurely and sat on the chair beside the bed. She smiled sweetly upon hearing this, and then said with some seriousness, "Of course not. As a woman, I have always respected the Xuanyin family." Many female cultivators have great respect and admiration for the Xuanyin family, which is composed entirely of women but stands at the top of the cultivation world. It is not only because of their strength. In the beginning, the Xuanyin family was not even a noble family, but they won their status through tenacious efforts. "Is this what you call respect?" Ye Danqing laughed in anger, looked at Duan Lanruo, and looked at the ropes on his body. Duan Lanruo said: "These are just some small measures that can make Master Ye talk to me calmly." She emphasized the word "calm", making Ye Danqing's expression even stiffer. The Lord of Wanjian City reached out and fiddled with the knots. His slightly cool fingertips brushed across the woman's skin, causing a slight shudder. Duan Lanruo looked at Ye Danqing's blushing expression with her lips bitten, as well as the puzzled look in her eyes about the ropes, and laughed in her heart. This expression... was surprisingly the same as the one when Ye Ci Ke was being played with by Ah Yue that day, quite a bit like the naivety of a young girl. No wonder he would target the vixen Hu Jiuniang. It turns out that the combination of a mature and beautiful woman's appearance and her tender and pure heart is so attractive.
After all, Ye Danqing had been in a high position for many years. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "What do you want to do?" Ci Ke is in her hands, so she must not act rashly. Duan Lanruo took back her hand and did not answer. She just smiled and said, "Master Ye talked to Ci Ke before and checked whether she was a virgin?" Ye Danqing's face suddenly changed, a cold light flashed in his eyes, his whole body was tense, as if he was ready to attack at any time regardless of the consequences. His expression was many times more stern than before. She didn't react so strongly when she herself was restrained, but once it came to Ye Ci Ke, she was like a mother leopard protecting her cubs, emitting a dangerous aura. It can be seen that all mothers in the world are the same. Duan Lanruo felt the same way and felt closer to the head of the Ye family, but she remained calm and said, "Don't worry, head of the Ye family. I've said before that I like Ci Ke very much. I didn't do anything to her, and I don't want to do anything to her... Even if the Lord of Wanjian City is cruel, she is still a woman after all, and she won't use this as a threat." She looked serious and spoke in a gentle tone. Ye Danqing was startled, but his body did not relax. He asked with constant vigilance: "Then why did you mention this?" Duan Lanruo said: "Master Ye, you only care about your daughter's innocence. Why don't you check her current physical condition?" She put Ye Ci Ke's hand in Ye Danqing's hand. Spiritual energy is flowing, and your tendons and veins are healthier than ever before. Ye Danqing was stunned: "How is it possible?" The Lord of Wanjian City was calm and composed: "Why not? With the complementation of yin and yang, wouldn't the Xuanyin family's thousand-year-old troubles be easily solved?" "But Ci Ke is clearly a virgin." Ye Danqing looked at his daughter, and a slight blush appeared on the girl's face. Duan Lanruo slowly took out a milky white porcelain bottle from her sleeve, with a sly look in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Master Ye, this is the solution." Chapter 183 Let’s Try The room fell silent for a moment. Duan Lanruo knew in her heart how big of an impact this incident would have on the Xuanyin family. If they could really solve the problem of short life that was like a curse accompanying their physical constitution, with the Xuanyin family's amazing talent for cultivation, in time, it would not be impossible for them to rival the Yuxu Taoist sect. The impact of this incident was not only on the Xuanyin family itself, but also had a huge impact on the entire Zhongzhou pattern. And because of some unspeakable reasons, the Lord of Wanjian City was very patient at this moment. He held the porcelain bottle in his hand and waited quietly for the reply from the current head of the Xuanyin Family. half an hour. Ye Danqing looked at the milky white porcelain vase, then turned his head to look at his own daughter. The girl was sitting in the morning light, her face as beautiful as a flower, her skin white and tender with a slight blush, full of the beauty and vitality of youth, which made her mother, who had watched her grow up, dazed for a moment. This is... a side of my daughter I've never seen before. In the past, this child was weak and always sat quietly in the corner. She was as thin as a daffodil that was easily broken, which made people feel distressed when thinking of her seemingly destined fate in the future. Although she would show a lively and spoiled personality in front of her family, most of the time, Ye Ci Ke always raised her chin, pretended to be arrogant, and ignored others. She was never willing to talk to other people, let alone make friends. Except for Xiu'er, a close maid who grew up with her, Ye Ci Ke never spoke to people of her age. Ye Danqing knew that it was not that the child did not want to talk to them. When she secretly hid behind the door and looked at her sisters with envy, she, as a mother, naturally saw it. But... Ye Ci Ke knew her fate. Her talent was inversely proportional to her lifespan. It could even be said that she had exchanged her life for the top talent of reaching the Void Refining Stage at the young age of 15. Therefore, she did not want to experience the pain of reluctance when one day she had to leave this world. Ye Danqing also advised her that love is a huge pain for people of the Xuanyin family, but this child is like a moth to a flame, and is completely devoted to Jiang Feng. Ye Danqing held Ye Ci Ke's hand tightly and began to investigate more carefully again.
As the spiritual power flowed through her meridians, the girl's physical condition appeared more completely before Ye Danqing's eyes. This is a body that does not seem to belong to someone from the Xuanyin family. Although it still looks thin on the outside, it is very healthy on the inside... the kind of health that a normal person would have. Originally, under normal circumstances, Ye Danqing would have been 37 years old this year, and Ye Ci Ke would have died at this age due to physical weakness. But in the current situation, she already has the foundation to live to be a hundred years old! Ye Danqing's beautiful eyes couldn't help but turn red, a wisp of mist quietly emerged, and her heart became excited. Could this really be the opportunity for the Xuanyin family to rise again? The curse that followed her like a shadow could finally be solved, and she wouldn't have to say goodbye to her clansmen again and again. Ye Ci Ke was also panicked for a moment, and hurriedly stretched out his fingers to wipe it, looking back at a loss, thinking that his mother was humiliated like this and was crying because of the grievance in her heart. The girl couldn't help but feel annoyed. If she had known earlier, she would not have joined Duan Lanruo in deceiving her mother. But if not... Mother will never accept that bastard, let alone the people in the clan. This is the only way. Although I always feel a little guilty, this is the best way. But seeing his mother about to cry in front of him for the first time, Ye Ci Ke felt very uncomfortable. Ye Danqing squeezed the girl's hand, and when she turned around, she said softly, "It's okay... Mom is happy." She then asked, "Tell me, is it really that thing that made your physique better?" A beautiful blush appeared on Ye Ci Ke's face again. His eyes wandered for a long time before he stammered and said "hmm". "What does um mean?" Ye Danqing looked at his daughter in confusion, then his eyes returned to the porcelain bottle in Duan Lanruo's hand, and he looked up at the Lord of Wanjian City: "What is this?" Duan Lanruo shook the bottle gently, raised a jade-white finger to her lips, and smiled: "It cannot be said." Ye Danqing said: "What is there to hide... Are you planning to use this recipe to threaten the Xuanyin family?" Duan Lanruo smiled and said, "It's not my turn to threaten you. I can't say it. I don't have much of this stuff left. It can't be kept for a long time, so I only have this bottle after refining it." What she said was vague and mysterious, which made Ye Danqing suspicious, but he roughly understood the preciousness of this thing. Thinking of the many industries under the name of the Lord of Wanjian City, he wondered if she was planning to raise the price and make a fortune. Ye Ci Ke hid aside and covered his face. Duan Lanruo smiled even more deeply. She walked closer and sat next to Ye Danqing. She opened the porcelain bottle, poured out some liquid in her hand, and handed it to the head of the Xuanyin family. Ye Danqing squinted his eyes and took a closer look. He found that the ointment was almost the same as that made from most pills. It was in a paste-like state and it was impossible to tell what the raw materials were at first glance. "Master Ye, even after I've said so much, you still don't trust me. Why don't you try it yourself? If I wanted to harm you, you'd have been unconscious for so long and I would have done what I should have done. Why do this?" Duan Lanruo said in a gentle tone. Ye Danqing hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be true, so he said, "Let's try it." After she ate it, she was stunned and felt that the taste was weird. ...But there are so many elixirs in the world that taste weird, so you can't say that just because this one tastes weird, there's something wrong with it. "Master Ye, feel your physical condition?"
Duan Lanruo said with a smile. Ye Danqing followed his instructions and felt his physical condition, and suddenly opened his eyes wide. "Master Ye, how does it feel to try it yourself? Does the medicine cure all your illnesses?" The beautiful woman came up, squinting her eyes with a charming look, and stretched out her hand to lift Ye Danqing's chin: "Master Ye, this is the lifeline of your entire Xuanyin family. It is in my hands now, and the raw materials only come from Jiang Feng... No, Liu Yuan knows, now, do you still oppose Ci Ke's marriage with him? Are you sacrificing your own family for the sake of the whole family, or are you ruining the future of the Xuanyin family for your own selfish desires?" "..." There was no expression on Ye Danqing's face, but the spiritual energy in his body was flowing. In an instant, his cultivation level broke through the barrier. He broke free from the rope and suddenly grabbed Duan Lanruo's neck. "Ah! Mother!" Ye Ci Ke was stunned. All the ropes on Ye Danqing fell off, her aura surged, and she stared at Duan Lanruo with a stern look. Chapter 184: The True Fragrance of the Ye Family Master Ye Danqing jumped up instantly and restrained Duan Lanruo. Duan Lanruo was not in a hurry. She half-lay on the jade mat, leaning against the pillow behind her, and said lazily: "Master Ye, is this how you treat your benefactor? It's really disheartening..." "What kind of benefactor is this?" Ye Danqing laughed in anger, feeling it was ridiculous, "To humiliate me like this..." Before she finished speaking, Duan Lanruo interrupted with a sneer, "Humiliation? Isn't this the best way?" Ye Danqing was tricked into eating something that he didn't know why, and he was extremely angry. "The best way? Seeing you eating it without any worries and enjoying it, I'm afraid that Jiang Feng has used some method to control your mind. The dignified Lord of Wanjian City actually did such a despicable thing. Jiang Feng is really good at it. I thought he was just sentimental, but I didn't expect him to be such a despicable villain!" She didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt more and more that the taste in her mouth was not right. But in fact, there was no taste when she put it in her mouth, and it even turned into pure yang energy in an instant, which was somewhat refreshing... Of course, the head of the Xuanyin family would not admit this. She would just feel that it was really despicable and she couldn't even spit it out! But after she said this, before Duan Lanruo could refute, Ye Ci Ke became anxious: "Mom, it has nothing to do with him. It's me, City Lord Duan and I who are willing to do this. We all like him, so..." Ye Danqing became even angrier, and turned around and said angrily, "You are so disappointing!" Ye Ci Ke was always weak in front of his mother. When he was scolded, he immediately whimpered subconsciously, tears welling up in his eyes and he dared not speak. But this time she mustered up the courage to whisper again: "He didn't know in the first place." "You, you unfilial son..." Ye Danqing was so angry that he couldn't speak. She could have comforted herself that it was Jiang Feng who was despicable and shameless, kidnapping her own daughter and eating her, and the child herself was unwilling. As for how to abduct, he naturally took advantage of the City Lord Duan who was already under his control. With this beautiful woman's foxy and scheming mind, wouldn't it be easy for her to deceive Ye Ci Ke? Now he actually says that Jiang Feng is unaware of it. Doesn't this mean that both his innocent daughter and the shrewd Duan Lanruo have fallen into depravity? ! The more Ye Danqing thought about it, the more difficult it became to understand. Duan Lanruo looked at her tangled expression and said with an unchanged smile: "Patriarch Ye is wrong. How is Ci Ke unfilial? She has found a way to make the Xuanyin family rise to prominence from now on. Even if Patriarch Ye does not have such ambitions, he does not want to see his people suffer from a short life, like mayflies in the world, born in the morning and dying in the evening, enjoying a moment of splendor and beauty, but not leaving a name in this world." Ye Danqing stared at her without relaxing the strength in his hands. He gritted his teeth and said, "There's no need to use such a disgusting method..."
"It is indeed not necessary." Duan Lanruo smiled faintly and said, "As long as the entire Xuanyin family practices dual cultivation with the despicable villain you mentioned, the problem will naturally be solved, and there will be no need to suffer this humiliation." Ye Danqing's expression was extremely ugly, and he said in hatred: "Where is he? I will kill him and take out the Xuanyang Pearl!" Duan Lanruo said, "Take it out? How does Patriarch Ye want to take it out? The Xuanyang Pearl is a pure energy body condensed from Yang energy. It has long been integrated with him. Do you dare to try to kill him once? When the Xuanyang Pearl dissipates, you will have no place to cry." A smile spread across her lips. "Besides, are you really willing to give up such an opportunity? The dignity that your Xuanyin family has been proud of for thousands of years, and the opportunity to change your fate, which one do you choose?" Ye Danqing's expression changed several times, his thoughts fluctuated violently, and he was speechless and unable to speak.
