Yan Tianhen said while hiding, “My master must have thought the same thing in those days. But didn’t you still run away with Father?”
“Bullshit.” You Ming sneered, “My Elder Martial Brother was very comforted. He said that You Ming was unreliable from childhood to adulthood. Now he finally found a reliable person so that my elder martial brother would not have to wipe You Ming’s ass every time he makes trouble. He was very touched!”
Yan Tianhen, “…pfft!”
Yan Zhonghua looked at the dad and son exchanging feelings with a smile.
Originally, the two wanted to ask what happened in the Tomb of Youshan, but it was their son who was more important than anything else, so the Tomb of Youshan was put on hold, and the topic all revolved around the feelings of Lin Xuanzhi and Yan Tianhen. There were too many things for You Ming to ask. In order to make Lin Xuanzhi impress You Ming, Yan Tianhen naturally chose everything that he could praise Lin Xuanzhi so much like he was the only one in the sky and couldn’t be found on the ground. If he let go of such a good son-in-law, he’d be out of his mind.
Yan Tianhen spoke so much that he was thirsty, but he did not dare to mention that Lin Xuanzhi was the eldest son of that person in the East Land. He also tried to find out, thinking that if You Ming could remember the memory that was erased by the Dao of Heaven, maybe they would be given a pass faster, but obviously, You Ming and Yan Zhonghua could not remember the past.
Yan Tianhen was afraid of revealing the truth and did not dare to say more.
Before long, a maid came from the outside. “Huarong Sword Immortal has sent a letter of visitation and is waiting at the door.”
The maid’s cheeks were flushed, obviously shocked by Lin Xuanzhi’s appearance. Yan Tianhen couldn’t help but sigh.
In his very first life, when he saw the appearance of Chang Sheng for the first time, even his eyes stopped wandering around. He only felt that the world was bright, and he did not understand how there could be such a beautiful person with the utmost nature in the world. If it is said that beauty was in the eye of the beholder, he would deny it.
Although the vast majority of the ranking in the 《The Beautiful Treasures of the Nine Lands》 compiled by the authoritative person in the previous life was disputed by people all over the world. It was because they felt that the ranking was poor. However, Chang Sheng Sword Venerable, the chief disciple of Hidden Spirit Sect, was ranked first, but it was uncontested and no one dared to argue. Chang Sheng’s appearance was peerless, so that was it.
In the blink of an eye, before You Ming could speak, he saw that Yan Tianhen had already ran out and wanted to meet him at the door.
You Ming said with some headache, “Look at him. How can he be a husband in the future? If people see this, they’ll think there is something wrong with it.”
Yan Zhonghua took You Ming in his arms and comforted him. “It’s not entirely right for you to say that. Although Ah Hen is active and enthusiastic, it’s impossible not to see that Huarong Sword Immortal accompanied Ah Hen to our home first, and then came to the door so quickly. It’s still uncertain who will eat who.”
When You Ming thought about it, he felt it was very reasonable and was at ease in mind.
When Yan Zhonghua looked at him, he couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. No matter how old You Ming was, his mind was always like a child. When someone coaxed him, he would be happy.
Yan Tianhen expected that Lin Xuanzhi would come to find him soon after he saw those people in the Reincarnation Palace. But he didn’t expect that it would be this soon. Yan Tianhen thought he would not see Lin Xuanzhi for a while. When he saw Lin Xuanzhi again, he felt excited after a long separation. It could be seen that he was deeply in love. Flying into Lin Xuanzhi’s arms, Yan Tianhen ignored the curious eyes around him. “Why did Dage come so quickly? Did you miss me?”
Lin Xuanzhi said, “Naturally, I missed you, so I came.”
He involuntarily tightened his arms and hugged the person in his embrace. The dull pain in his heart that made it hard to breathe just now gradually subsided. It seemed that as long as he hugged this person, he was already embracing his whole world. His mind was at peace.
Yan Tianhen said in a low voice, “Just now, I told my father and dad about your matter, but now, they are a little resistant, especially my dad. He can’t turn the idea in his head for a while, so he will probably give you some trouble. But don’t worry, Dage. I will protect you and won’t let dad bully you.”
Lin Xuanzhi just wanted to say with a smile that Demon Venerable You Ming couldn’t bully him, but he saw a bright red figure rushing out of the door and coming straight towards them.
“In bright daylight — Yan Tianhen, restrain yourself!” You Ming’s internal anger had already cooled down. But at the sight of his son and the pig who had their cabbage in his arms and was acting so carefree with each other, the fire in his heart surged again.
Yan Tianhen was shocked and quickly let go of Lin Xuanzhi. He stood straight and smiled at You Ming. “Hey, Dad, why are you still coming out to welcome us? You’re an elder, I will take Dage inside.”
You Ming, “…”
Welcome, your head!
You Ming and Lin Xuanzhi had a couple of encounters before. At that time, You Ming only felt that this person was extremely elegant and impressive. In a few years, he would definitely be famous all over the world, and his impression was quite good.
At this time, however, when he saw Lin Xuanzhi again, he only felt that he was disgusting. With such a deceptive face, he must be an indecent and malicious playboy whose sole purpose was to seduce his family’s Ah Hen.
Although it was one thing to know that your cabbage had been eaten, it was another thing to truly see your cabbage wish so dearly to be eaten by the pig.
No matter how he looked at it, Lin Xuanzhi didn’t look like someone who could marry someone willingly into King Ye’s residence. You Ming thought that Yan Tianhen would be like a tail in the future. He would follow Lin Xuanzhi wherever he went, so You Ming was very worried.
You Ming didn’t have a good face on. With a cold hum, he swept Lin Xuanzhi a scornful glance. “Inappropriate.” With that, You Ming turned around and strode into the house, making it clear that he didn’t want to pay attention to them. This should be regarded as a loss of face.
Probably, in a few days, the news that Consort Ye gave Huarong Sword Immortal a bite at the gate of King Ye’s palace would spread throughout the Dao cultivators. It would create another turmoil.
Yan Tianhen had to turn his eyes for help from Yan Zhonghua.
After all, he was calmer than You Ming. With You Ming playing a bad cop, Yan Zhonghua didn’t mind being the good cop. With a faint smile, the gentleman said, “I don’t know if Huarong Sword Immortal has come from afar, but I still hope you will forgive us for missing it.”
Facing his future father-in-law, Lin Xuanzhi naturally lowered his posture. “I should have sent a letter in advance, but I did have some matters to visit. I hope you can pardon this son-in-law.”
He claimed to be a little son-in-law and used it very well.
Everything about Lin Huarong was basically a mystery to the outside world. Some people guessed that he was over a hundred years old now. Some people guessed that he was no more than 50 years old. Yan Zhonghua never touched his bones. Naturally, he didn’t know his age. But by saying “little son-in-law”, it could be seen that Lin Xuanzhi had put himself in the position of peers with Yan Tianhen.
Even if he was now a thousand years old or a hundred years old, due to the seniority distinction, if he wanted to be together with Yan Tianhen, Lin Xuanzhi could naturally afford to claim himself a junior to Yan Zhonghua.
Yan Zhonghua said with a smile, “No need to be so formal, please enter.”
Yan Tianhen grinned at Lin Xuanzhi. The two held hands and followed Yan Zhonghua into the gate of King Ye’s palace.
“The one before, but is he the Huarong Sword Immortal, who is known as the light of the Dao cultivators?” The people couldn’t help talking about it together in King Ye’s palace. After the master left, these maids and servants who watched the whole process said, “Look at that appearance, look at that bearing, look at that charm, tsk, tsk, except for the legendary Huarong Sword Immortal, I’m afraid it can’t be anyone else. It seems that the little master of our family has an extraordinary relationship with Huarong Sword Immortal. Could they be… in that kind of relationship?”
“Obviously, otherwise, when have you ever seen the consort look this angry? It was likely that he felt his cabbage had been eaten by a pig.” Having said this, the maid felt this was the truth.
Lin Xuanzhi was still visiting King Ye’s house for the first time. Apart from the close relationship between him and Yan Tianhen, he was also recommended by the Sect Master of Fuyao Sect. He was also the Hall Master of Sword God Hall from Myriad Dao Academy. His status was not low, so Yan Zhonghua also entertained him with the highest standard.
However, it was quite different from official hospitality.
There was a wonderful scene in King Ye’s house, which was called Frost-Returning Snow Terrace.
Looking from the outside, this terrace was a vast and misty place. If you were far away from the clouds, you would not see it. However, if you were in it, you could see the wonderful scenery of flowers, snow, ice and sparkles. It was pure, elegant, yet heroic. But it wasn’t until Lin Xuanzhi stepped into Frost-Returning Snow Terrace that he realized that the rumors from the outside were not as good as the scenery here, because it was not only a viewing platform, but also a large array. Those swirling tens of thousands of frost flowers were mischievously jumping and floating, sometimes dancing around Lin Xuanzhi, sometimes falling on his clothes and skin, and then melting away.
Sometimes there were frost flowers forming into one meter high humans. They held various weapons in their hands and skillfully danced away, their flowing movements just like a real person.
The weapons in their hands were made up of frost flowers, so they were changeable. Sometimes a zither, other times a flute, a whip, a halberd, and a long blade. Their moves were also different. They were models of a hundred sects, which were so tolerant and admirable. Lin Xuanzhi looked for a moment, then he saw the deep meaning of this picture.
On the table was nectar and jade with an elegant fragrance. The frost flowers danced again with graceful appearances and delicate and charming abnormalities.
Yan Zhonghua asked, “What do you think?”
Lin Xuanzhi said with sincerity, “Although King Ye has never been involved in the battlefield, he has arranged his troops here. Frost flowers serve as soldiers and the leaves serve as cities. They guide the rivers and mountains and are extremely charming. It was like the magic of nature had entered the realm of perfection.”
Yan Zhonghua had not yet opened his mouth, but You Ming who had been drinking hard for a while sneered, rolled his eyes, and quibbled, “You’re just a flatterer.”
Lin Xuanzhi, “…”
Yan Tianhen put down the wine cup and said, “What does dad think of father’s Frost-Returning Snow Terrace?”
Without thinking about it, You Ming proudly said, “Naturally, it’s incomparable under the heaven.”
Yan Tianhen curled his lips and said sourly, “Flatterer!”
You Ming, “…”
You Ming got angry and slapped the table as he got up. “Little rabbit, do you dare to say that again?”
Yan Tianhen stuck out his neck. “If you can praise my father, then you can’t not allow Dage to tell the truth. Since my Dage entered the door, you have been picking your nose and finding fault with him. No matter what, all the visitors are guests. If I go to my Dage’s home another day and receive the same cold treatment from his father and dad, will my dad still feel happy?”
