Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day.
Ye Chen and Eldest Senior Sister woke up.
At this time, Ye Chen realized that his strength had increased quite a bit. Although he had not broken through, he was much stronger than before.
And Eldest Senior Sister Xu Qiuya had directly broken through to the middle stage of the Mahayana Realm.
With such a cultivation speed, it seemed that this dual cultivation method was really useful.
If she dual cultivated a few more times, would she not be able to directly reach the late stage of the Mahayana Realm, followed by the Deva Realm.
However, such matters could not be rushed.
Ye Chen continued to set up the city protection array.
Thus, after half a month, the city protection array was finally set up.
After the city protection array was set up, Xu Qiuya and Ye Chen stood on the city tower and looked at the city protection array that Ye Chen had set up.
“Little junior brother, are you done?” Xu Qiuya asked softly.
Ye Chen nodded.
Eldest Senior Sister was a little sad. The city-protecting array was completed. Ye Chen had nothing else to do in Sunset Cloud City.
Eldest Senior Sister wanted Ye Chen to stay.
But she also knew.
Ye Chen did not belong to her alone.
Besides her, Ye Chen had six other senior sisters.
She could not be so selfish.
“Senior sister, if you encounter any danger, activate the city protection array and hide in the city. Once this array is activated, even the immortals who have passed the tribulation can’t do anything to you!”
The Eldest Senior Sister nodded and looked at Ye Chen with a smile. “Don’t worry, little junior brother. Go and bring back all your senior sisters. Senior sister will guard this city and wait for your return.”
Ye Chen nodded his head firmly.
At night.
Ye Chen did not have any more sexual intercourse with Eldest Senior Sister.
He left the Sunset Cloud City and arrived at the Immortal Destiny Holy Land.
On the Immortal Jade Peak.
In the flower field.
Holy Mother Immortal Jade was sitting in a pavilion.
Ye Chen came before his mother.
“Little Chen, you’re back.” Holy Mother Immortal Jade calmly asked.
Ye Chen walked over and sat down opposite his mother.
At this moment, Holy Mother Immortal Jade spoke, “You came back this time because you wanted to ask about that matter, right?”
Ye Chen nodded. “That’s right. I want to know what kind of relationship you have with the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom. Also, who is my father?”
At this moment, Holy Mother Immortal Jade smiled. “Alright, since you already know, then I’ll tell you!”
“Your father’s name is Ji Xuanyuan. I met him when I was traveling.”
Upon hearing the surname Ji, Ye Chen immediately understood.
The Ji Clan was the royal family of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
It seemed that he was indeed a prince.
Holy Mother Immortal Jade continued, “Back then when I was traveling, I met him later on. He fell in love with me at first sight and began to pursue me.”
“At that time, he wasn’t the Emperor, but a prince. However, he was dressed incognito and I didn’t know of his identity. He was incomparably talented and was a romantic and suave man. Very soon, we fell in love.
“I thought that he and I could be together for a lifetime and live like this forever.
“However, I was wrong. Back then, I was already six months pregnant. However, at this moment, news came from the Eastern Imperial Kingdom saying that the old emperor had passed away.
“He left.
“Only then did I know that he was a prince.
“He asked me to go to the Imperial Palace with him, but I knew that the Imperial Palace was an abyss. Once I entered, I was afraid that I would never be able to come out again.
“Moreover, he was only a prince. He wanted to seize power away from his brothers, and it would be extremely dangerous for me to go with him. I wasn’t afraid of danger, it was just that I was worried for you. I wanted to ensure your safety.
“Therefore, I chose to leave him and return to this Immortal Destiny Holy Land to live in seclusion.
“When I gave birth to you, news came from the Eastern Imperial Kingdom saying that Ji Xuanyuan had become the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
“Therefore, when you were able to cultivate back then, I told you to conceal your strength. I was afraid that you would be too eye-catching and let the Eastern Imperial Kingdom know that you’re strong enough to become a tool for their politics.”
At this moment, Ye Chen understood everything.
It turned out that he…was really a prince.
“I understand!” Ye Chen nodded.
At this moment, Saintess Immortal Jade looked at Ye Chen and said, “Little Chen, don’t blame your father. He didn’t have a choice either.”
Ye Chen nodded and said, “Don’t worry, mother. I won’t blame him.”
Ye Chen was not some male protagonist who had suffered a great deal.
After all, he was an adult. He had already spent a childhood in the 21st century.
Therefore, he did not have any real feelings toward his father.
He would not hate him just because his father was not by his side when he was young.
If he was being honest, he did not hate him at all. More than that, he did not feel anything.
He would be a prince and cultivate his own immortal powers. Neither of them should disturb the other. This was the best.
As for his mother, she had the right to pursue happiness.
Hence, regardless of whether she wanted to return to the palace and become a concubine or Empress, Ye Chen would support her.
“Little Chen, after tonight, you will be leaving the Sunset Cloud City, right?” Holy Mother Immortal Jade asked as she looked at her son.
Ye Chen nodded. “I promised my senior sister that three years later, I will go and look for them.”
“In addition, I also want to walk out of here and take a good look at this beautiful world,” Ye Chen said.
Holy Mother Immortal Jade nodded. “Don’t you want to be a prince?”
At this moment, Ye Chen smiled. “Mother, don’t you understand me? I’m just a salted fish. I’m not suitable to be a prince, and I don’t want to live a life of fighting in the open and in the dark.”
“Then what about mother? I’ve already grown up. Do you want to go to the Royal Palace?” Ye Chen looked at his mother and asked.
At this moment, Saint Mother Immortal Jade smiled. “No wonder you said you’re my biological child. I’m the same as you, and I don’t want to get involved in the conflict of the royal family.”
“In addition, I’m not alone now. I have you and your seven senior sisters.
“Therefore, I want to stay in this Immortal Destiny Holy Land and help you guard this home. Back then, when we returned from our travels, we also had a place to reunite.”
At this moment, Ye Chen also smiled.
Suddenly, Saint Mother Immortal Jade looked at Ye Chen in a somewhat indecent manner and asked, “Little Chen, actually…you like your seven senior sisters, right?”
As soon as she said this.
Ye Chen’s face instantly turned red.
“Mother, what…what are you talking about? They are all my senior sisters!” Ye Chen hurriedly said.
He had absolutely never told his mother about the matter between him and his senior sisters.
Never.
Saintess Immortal Jade had a wicked smile on her face. “You were raised by me, so don’t think I didn’t know about you.”
“As the saying goes, don’t let the good water flow to others’ fields. Your seven senior sisters are all top-notch in the world, and they are all like my daughters. Moreover, they aren’t related to you by blood. So, if they all become your wives, I will definitely be very happy.”
Ye Chen looked at his mother in astonishment.
He had never realized that his mother was so good at joking before.
“So, Little Chen, you must do your best. Chase all seven of your senior sisters back so that your mother can have grandchildren as soon as possible…”
That night, Ye Chen and Holy Mother Immortal Jade had a good chat.
That was the first time Ye Chen had a heart-to-heart talk with his mother since he was young.
