Ye Tian Yun highly doubted Prime Minister Fang's words.
But everything was going as he had planned so he didn't interrupt the latter.
Madam Xin's anger however calmed down.
Her biggest worry was her son and his future.
Fang Chen's cultivation talent has already proved to be pathetic. This put Fang Chen's appointment as the next clan head at risk.
Madam Xin wanted her soon to have a good and secure future, and him becoming the next clan head was on her wish list.
"Will sending Chen'er to the battlefield really help?" Madam Xin asked.
Fang Yuan shook his head, "It's not a guaranteed deal. But if this brat can make use of the opportunity, he will definitely rise in the ranks of the kingdom."
"But what about his cultivation?" Madam Xin asked, "Is there really no way to increase his talent?"
Prime Minister Fang Yuan shook his head, "I am afraid there is not."
"Um… can I say something?"
Ye Tian Yun's voice rang out in the room.
The Fang couple turned their attention, and Madam Xin asked, "What is it, son? You don't want to go to the war? If you don't want to, just tell me. No one will force you to do it."
Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "It's not like that. The war is a good opportunity for me, and I want to make use of it. I just interrupted because I wanted to show you something."
"Hm? What?" Prime Minister Fang frowned.
It was rare for Fang Chen to speak in front of him.
'Did he grow some balls?'
Ye Tian Yun cleared his throat, and in the next instant, a sudden aura burst out of his body.
"This…"
The Fang Couple's eyes widened in shock as they came to an unthinkable conclusion.
"Ninth Level Qi Condensation Realm!"
Prime Minister Fang Yuan stood up from his seat and came in front of Ye Tian Yun to test the latter's cultivation on his own.
"It really is…."
A huge smile formed on Madam Xin's face, "Haish…. Finally…. Heavens have finally blessed us… my son is not a talentless cultivator. Oh, heavens, thank you for these blessings!"
Her eyes were getting moist by the time she reached the end of her sentence.
Prime Minster Fang Yuan was also surprisingly happy.
One of Ye Tian Yun's motives for showcasing his cultivation was to see Prime Minister Fang Yuan's emotions.
Suddenly, two prompts appeared on the Fang Couple's head.
[Fang Yuan. 4 Star Favourabiulity. Complicated emotions. Hard to judge. The main reason for not liking you is your heritage.](Fang Chen)
[Xin Xue Yan. 6 Star Favourability. For her, you're three of the most important people in the whole world alongside her daughter and her husband.](Fang Chen)
Ye Tian Yun was surprised to see the prompts.
'Damn, I always forget the fact that I have the Token Of Fate….'
He was still not used to seeing and checking the prompts.
And this time, he noticed something else too.
There was Fang Chen's name at the end of the prompt.
'Why's that for?'
"Son, I am really proud of you!" Madam Xin's sudden exclamation interrupted his thoughts.
He turned his head towards and let out a small smile, "As long you're happy."
"Why were you hiding your cultivation?" Prime Minister Fang Yuan had already recovered himself, "You like to be treated like shit by everyone around you?"
Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "I was not hiding. I simply didn't get the chance to show it."
Fang Yuan frowned, "Hmm, but how did your cultivation increase this much? Even Fang Yunru had like five to six breakthroughs in the time you were gone. And you broke through about eighteen to twenty times in just eight months?"
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "I don't remember. All memories related to my time spent in the Gracious Sword Sect are gone now. Maybe in a few days, I will recover them; only then will I be able to recount everything."
"Hm…" The frown on Prime Minister Fang's head loosened, "Don't worry, I will ask the Sect itself. I won't reveal your cultivation, but I will tell them about the incident. I am confident that the Sect will help us in your situation."
"Really?" Madam Xin frowned, "With how bad your relations are with Sect Leader Su, I highly doubt that. But if they can send us the details of all incidents related to our son, then maybe upon reading them, he might recall some memories?"
"Yeah, that's what I hope for," Fang Yuan nodded, and after a slight pause, he smirked while saying, "As for Su Ming not cooperating… don't worry about that. That guy loves his disciples. I am sure he won't hesitate to help."
Fang Yuan then went back to his seat and, looking at Fang Chen; he said, "With his cultivation potential now changed, should we change our deal with the Gao Clan?"
Madan Xin frowned, "Why?"
Fang Yuan shrugged, "Why not? With his talent, he might compete for the 'Young Dragon' position."
"What!?" Madam Yunru made a horrified expression, "Xin Xue Qing is his cousin, for god's sake! Stop thinking about getting them together!"
Fang Yuan pursed his lips but didn't reply.
Madam Xin frowned, "Husband, don't make any reckless decisions. I don't want my son to entangle with that princess."
"Hm? What's wrong with her?" Fang Yuan was confused, "Other than the fact that these two are cousins."
Madam Xin took a deep breath and said, "Xin Xue Qing might be my niece, but I don't like her. She gives me a bad feeling, just like how her mother makes me feel. I don't want that bratty princess in my house."
Prime Minister Fang raised his hands in surrender, "Alright, alright. I won't break off my promise with the Gao Clan then."
"Hmm, so when are you going to make this public?" Madam Xin said.
"Before Fang Chen goes to war."
"Why?"
Prime Minister Fang replied, "The longer we delay, the more complicated things will become. Right now, Gao Clan is in the weak spot, and since Fang Yuan has returned, it's better to get done with this thing."
Ye Tian Yun was confused about what these two were talking about, but then Prime Minister Fang Yuan dropped a pipe bomb that gave him a dreadful feeling.
"Maybe by next year, we might have grandkids if we keep the promise with the Gao Clan."
