Chapter 767: Red Snow: Mother Is a Dragon? Not Human?
On Longshe Shan.
Shang Hongxue greets Long Ming and the other person, the pressure is a bit great, but it's okay.
When Long Ming sees her, they walk straight up, grasp Shang Hongxue's hand, pull them up the mountain, ignoring Chen Yuan behind.
Chen Yuan rubs their nose, gives a bitter smile, follows up, passes the mid‑mountain, glances at the house where Hu Yueer lives, sees Hu Yueer and her two children working, Hu Yueer senses Chen Yuan's gaze, stops working, lifts their head, meets Chen Yuan's eyes.
The two exchange a glance, Chen Yuan quickly ascends, daring not to linger.
Hu Yueer's daughter and son by her side do not notice anything unusual, focus on their work; even if they did notice, they act as if they didn't, because they have little feeling for Chen Yuan as a father, as if he were a stranger.
Hu Yueer feels bitter inside, lips twitch, still cannot shout, lowers head, continues working, eyes hide fear and dread of Long Ming.
Long Ming also notices the scene, does not interrupt Chen Yuan, nor stop them.
"Mother, why did you all suddenly go up the mountain? Chuyang brother is still in seclusion, may not emerge soon."
Long Ming holds Shang Hongxue's hand, affectionately says, "Hongxue, it's fine, mother can wait; when roughly might Chuyang emerge?"
Shang Hongxue blinks, shakes head, "Don't know, maybe a month, maybe two months."
She cannot pinpoint the exact time; the news of mother and they going up the mountain may have reached Chuyang brother, and his not coming out to greet shows that he currently has no time, cannot come out for now.
Shang Hongxue dares not give a time; if wrong, it cannot be remedied.
"That long?"
"Probably, lately Chuyang brother's seclusion periods are long; he's been in seclusion for half a month, not coming out soon. Perhaps mother and father should descend first; when Chuyang emerges, I'll send you news?"
The two have stayed on the mountain, the pressure on her is great, especially as Chen Yuan and Long Ming seem not yet reconciled.
It's just an extra woman, the rice is already cooked, the matter is settled, continuing to scold is useless.
Father's ability is not strong enough to control mother Long Ming.
Their affair, Shang Hongxue will not intervene, nor speak recklessly, letting them resolve it themselves.
If it were Chuyang brother, it would have been settled long ago.
"No need, since Chuyang hasn't emerged, it's perfect I also want to stay here for a while; Longshe Shan's spiritual energy is dense, suitable for my cultivation, Hongxue, you have no objection, right?"
Shang Hongxue repeatedly shakes head, "No, no, mother can stay as long as she wishes."
Just kidding, how could she have an objection.
This mother is very strong, that pressure is truly great.
Standing beside her, the invisible oppressive aura keeps coming; if she hadn't greatly increased her strength, she might have knelt down outright.
That oppressive aura is even more terrifying than Heishanyang's.
"I'll prepare a room for mother right now."
"Thank you, Hongxue."
Shang Hongxue hurriedly goes to prepare, tidies a room for Long Ming; as for father, they never speak, staying beside.
His appearance is not that of a husband but a servant; Shang Hongxue dares not ask, nor speak.
Long Ming sees their room, is very satisfied, pulls Shang Hongxue to chat together.
The woman's chat content is simple, just various gossip.
Chen Yuan stands outside, surveys Longshe Shan up and down, internally exclaims, "Longshe Shan has risen again, spiritual energy density increased severalfold, already a divine realm, that kid Chuyang is truly impressive, achieving this transformation."
"If the Chen Clan had this spiritual energy density, the disciples' cultivation speed would at least double."
"The mountain's spiritual herbs are varied, second and third grades are abundant; seems my son is quite wealthy."
Dragon Tooth Rice and Dragon Blood Rice are abundant, the scale has expanded severalfold, each time expanding a portion, yearly output is astonishing.
No longer the previous quantities, not enough for them to eat themselves.
Then the people on the mountain; among them, Shang Hongchen's appearance made him pause, Chen Yuan knew Shang Hongchen had ascended, didn't expect she had also formed a Golden Core.
"Shang Yingnian that old fellow's daughter truly has extraordinary talent; Hongxue's girl formed a Golden Core not long ago, Shang Hongchen also formed one; the recent Thunder Tribulation she likely overcame; if that old fellow Shang Yingnian knew, he'd be very happy."
"I also don't know how my girl…"
Chen Yuan misses his daughter, not by his side, always staying at Spirit Sword Sect, never returned.
The daughter has grown, eyes lack this father.
As for the other daughter, Chen Yuan looks toward the mid‑mountain.
That petite, exquisite figure takes a deep breath.
Chen Li senses something, body trembles, lowers head to continue work, dares not look up.
Chen Qinger looks at the approaching elder uncle, hurriedly stops sword practice.
"Uncle, could you not come over here? I don't want Aunt to target me."
Long Ming's gaze is terrifying, that oppressive aura on them makes it hard to breathe.
Since childhood, they feared this aunt, often punished by aunt.
It can be said Chen Qinger fears no one, only this aunt truly scares them.
Even meeting is scary, let alone… aunt is still angry, truly deadly.
"What are you afraid of? Uncle is here, why are you still scared that aunt will eat you?"
Chen Yuan smiles, says, patting chest, "With me here, nothing will go wrong."
Chen Qinger rolls eyes at Chen Yuan, distances from this uncle, cherishes life.
"Uncle, you are now a dangerous person, don't approach me, nor bring disaster upon me."
"If you come again, I won't be polite to you."
Drawing sword, pointing at Chen Yuan, the Golden Core cultivation on them manifests; Chen Yuan raises eyebrows, "Qinger, have you formed a Golden Core?"
"Yes, recently I successfully passed the tribulation, uncle, I don't want to lay a hand on you."
"No need to be nervous, why didn't you tell uncle you succeeded in forming a Golden Core?"
"Does your father know?"
Chen Qinger shook her head: "I don't know."
Chen Yuan rubbed his hands, his hands were itchy.
"Qinger, Great Uncle hasn't fought anyone in a long time; since you have successfully condensed your elixir, Great Uncle happens to have made a breakthrough, so let's play together."
Upon hearing that, Chen Qinger felt terrible.
She immediately put away her sword blade, turned and ran back to her room; she didn't want to fight Great Uncle, who at a glance was clearly an old schemer, and after his cultivation breakthrough, beating her would be no different from a father beating his son.
"Qinger, come out, Great Uncle promises not to strike hard."
Chen Qinger hid in the room, activated the Formation, not wanting to go out and get beaten.
Anyway, she could not go out; Great Aunt is very dangerous, must not provoke her.
Great Uncle is courting death; she doesn't want to follow him to death.
