Chapter 478: Attendant? Ye Qingxuan's Speechlessness

~14 min read 2,689 words

Shortly after Ye Qingxuan suppressed the Evil Witch Yun.

The two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, followed the flight trajectory of the World Map and arrived at the battlefield where Ye Qingxuan had suppressed the Evil Witch Yun.

When the two saw the seven-colored phantom condensing atop the World Map, their faces lit up with joy, and they bowed together, saying:

"Zhaoheng (Zhaoyu) pays respects to Young Master!"

Looking at Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, Ye Qingxuan nodded gently and said:

"Hmm, you two wait here for me!"

Having spoken, Ye Qingxuan's Primordial Spirit phantom seized the World Map and flew toward a certain direction.

Not far in that direction lay the general area where he had first sensed the appearance of the Evil Witch Yun.

Before leaving, Ye Qingxuan wished to try and see if he could locate the wormhole tunnel opened by the Green Demon Realm in this region.

Upon arriving at a vast expanse of water, Ye Qingxuan stood suspended in the air and said calmly:

"It should be this place!"

Having spoken, Ye Qingxuan projected his spiritual sense and began to carefully probe the various spaces within this body of water.

"Cannot sense it?"

Unfortunately, after Ye Qingxuan probed for a long time, he still detected no trace of the wormhole tunnel.

Regarding this, Ye Qingxuan was not disappointed.

After all, the wormhole tunnel opened by the Green Demon Realm had its exit on the Earthly Mystic Realm side hidden within the spatial layer.

Under normal circumstances, relying solely on spiritual sense to probe indeed made it difficult to pinpoint the exact location.

"Enough!"

After probing once more and finding still no way to locate the exit of the wormhole tunnel opened by the Green Demon Realm,

Ye Qingxuan shook his head slightly and prepared to depart.

Yet unexpectedly, at this moment, a faint spatial fluctuation suddenly arose from three hundred li below the water area to the lower right of Ye Qingxuan.

Detecting this faint spatial fluctuation, Ye Qingxuan uttered a soft exclamation, then directed his spiritual sense toward this spot.

In the next instant, that space trembled slightly.

Shortly after, about a hundred li away from that space, a Nascent Soul realm figure of the Green Demon Race suddenly appeared.

"Hehe, what a coincidence! So the entrance and exit are here!"

Seeing the suddenly appearing Green Demon Race figure, Ye Qingxuan was not surprised.

He knew this suddenly appearing Green Demon Race figure had just been transmitted from the Green Demon Realm through the wormhole tunnel.

Before that Nascent Soul realm Green Demon Race figure could react,

Ye Qingxuan lightly waved his hand, and a special wave swept toward that Green Demon Race figure.

Under this special wave, the soul and spirit of that Nascent Soul realm Green Demon Race figure were directly obliterated by Ye Qingxuan.

After killing that Nascent Soul realm Green Demon Race figure, Ye Qingxuan did not waste it.

Even a mosquito is still meat.

With a thought of his spiritual sense, Ye Qingxuan casually stored the corpse of that Nascent Soul realm Green Demon Race figure, then his form flickered as he arrived at the space his spiritual sense had locked onto.

Activating his spiritual sense, the World Map beneath his feet fully revived once more.

The seventeen rules of the Three-Thirds Realm contained within the World Map condensed into a single point, and under Ye Qingxuan's guidance, struck directly at the space his spiritual sense had locked onto.

"Crack!" "Crack!" "Boom!"

After the rule attack condensed into a single point struck that space,

that space instantly began to crack, then suddenly shattered its surface layer, revealing a pitch-black circular hole tunnel.

The remaining rule power struck the pitch-black circular hole tunnel, immediately breaking its balance.

"Boom!"

Only after the deafening boom echoed did

that pitch-black circular hole tunnel gradually dissipate.

Although the heavenly and earthly restrictions in the Earthly Mystic Realm have now increased, and even Ye Qingxuan cannot vanish into the void,

after locking onto the space where the wormhole tunnel resides,

he can still condense rule power to break the surface with a single point, shatter a small area of surface space, and destroy the wormhole tunnel located within the spatial layer.

After Ye Qingxuan destroyed the wormhole tunnel opened by the Green Demon Realm in the Earthly Mystic Realm,

far away within the Green Mystic Blessed Land of the Xuantian Sect,

a special clear qi descended from the sky, instantly enveloping Ye Qingxuan's original body's Primordial Spirit.

Wrapped within this clear qi, Ye Qingxuan directly entered a special ethereal state, and his comprehension slightly improved.

"Is this the reward for destroying the wormhole tunnel?"

Sensing his current state, Ye Qingxuan shook his head slightly and said disappointedly:

This special ethereal state is only slightly stronger than the Void Meditation state of the Void Meditation Realm.

For experts of the Void Meditation Realm, it can only be considered better than nothing.

Gathering his mind, he no longer paid attention to the matters of the Primordial Spirit and Soul Transformation realms within Qingzhou.

Ye Qingxuan's original body closed his eyes once more, and his mind sank again into the contemplation of the Minor Divine Arts.

On the other side,

after Ye Qingxuan's Primordial Spirit phantom sensed that his original body had entered the ethereal state, it also paused slightly.

Immediately, carrying the World Map, it transformed into a phantom and flew toward the place where the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, were waiting.

When Ye Qingxuan's Primordial Spirit phantom appeared before Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu once more,

before the two could react, Ye Qingxuan had already spoken first:

"You two return to the Ye family territory first. Wait three days for my return, and then you may go back to the Qingxuan Blessed Land."

"Yes, Young Master!"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu beamed with joy.

They had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Seeing no objection from the two, the Primordial Spirit projection of Ye Qingxuan nodded slightly.

Immediately after, his Primordial Spirit projection rolled up the World Map again and flew toward a certain direction in the Qingmu Manor.

Before leaving, he planned to spend three days cleansing the Qingmu Manor and the surrounding areas of the Qing Demon Clan.

Now that the Qingxuan Cave Heaven Blessed Land has just advanced to the Seventh Rank, the accumulated foundation from before has been completely exhausted.

It now requires vast resources to fill it and accelerate the accumulation of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land's origin.

And the corpses of the Qing Demon Clan are the best resources.

After Ye Qingxuan departed.

The two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, did not linger at the spot either; they turned and flew toward their temporary encampment.

During the flight, Ye Zhaoyu suddenly remembered the two sisters, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er. He looked at Ye Zhaoheng beside him and asked:

"Big Brother, we are returning. What about Yun'er and Cail'er?"

Although the time spent with Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er was short, Ye Zhaoyu truly liked these two little girls.

Now that they were about to return to the Qingxuan Blessed Land, he felt extremely reluctant to part.

Hearing Ye Zhaoyu's words, Ye Zhaoheng pondered for a moment before speaking:

"How about we take Yun'er and Cail'er back to the Qingxuan Blessed Land to serve as attendants for the Young Master?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhaoyu's eyes immediately lit up with excitement as he exclaimed:

"Hahaha, good, that's a great idea!"

Before the two brothers left the Qingxuan Blessed Land, their Young Master had given them the task of finding attendants.

Now only three short days remained, and they had no time to search for suitable candidates.

So they might as well take the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er, back to the Qingxuan Blessed Land to serve as attendants for their Young Master.

Thinking of this decision, Ye Zhaoyu chuckled inwardly:

"Hehehe."

He felt this decision was very appropriate.

After all, their Young Master did not have strict requirements for attendants.

Three days later.

A flying boat soared into the sky.

On the flying boat, the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er, had tears in the corners of their eyes as they waved their short little hands reluctantly.

They bid farewell to Ye Qingxiao and Yu Xueqing, the couple below:

"Uncle Xiao, Aunt Qing, we are leaving now. Remember to come visit us later!"

Afterwards, the flying boat turned into a streak of light and quickly vanished into the distant horizon.

Three days prior.

When the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, returned to the encampment, Ye Qingxiao had already finished his patrol and returned.

Upon hearing that Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu intended to take the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er, back to the Qingxuan Blessed Land,

Ye Qingxiao showed no reaction, but Yu Xueqing immediately voiced her refusal.

However, after persuasion from the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, and a joint discussion among the four,

plus the fact that Ye Qingxiao and Yu Xueqing currently had sect missions to attend to,

if Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er were left behind, someone would inevitably have to stay behind to care for them during every patrol.

So Yu Xueqing could only soften her stance and compromise, deciding to summon Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er to let them choose for themselves.

Thus, after a difficult choice by the two little girls,

they ultimately chose to follow the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, to the Qingxuan Blessed Land together.

After Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu departed with the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cail'er,

Yu Xueqing still stood in place, her face showing deep reluctance.

Clearly, during the years spent with the two little girls, Yu Xueqing had developed very deep affection for them.

Seeing this, Ye Qingxiao, standing nearby, wanted to comfort his wife, so he spoke jokingly:

"If you like children, we can have a few more ourselves."

Hearing Ye Qingxiao's words, Yu Xueqing came to her senses, her eyes lighting up, but soon they dimmed again as she sighed:

"Sigh, with our current realm, conceiving a child is not that easy."

In the years since becoming Dao Companions with Ye Qingxiao, how much did she not wish to bear a child?

But in the early stages, the two needed to prioritize their cultivation.

And once their cultivation improved, the difficulty of conceiving a child had risen sharply.

Seeing that Yu Xueqing was somewhat downcast, Ye Qingxiao chuckled:

"Hehe, if we try this matter a few more times, we will surely have a chance."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xueqing rolled her eyes at Ye Qingxiao without speaking, then turned and walked toward her courtyard.

Seeing this, Ye Qingxiao chuckled and followed closely behind Yu Xueqing; the two entered the courtyard one after the other.

More than two months later.

A silver streak of light cut across the sky and vanished into the territory of Xuanzhou.

Inside the flying boat, Ye Zhaoyu looked at the two listless little girls and smiled slightly, saying:

"Yun'er, Cai'er, we are almost there."

Hearing Ye Zhaoyu's words, Liu Yun'er's large eyes instantly lit up, and she exclaimed with joy:

"Uncle Zhaoyu, are we going to our new home?"

Beside her, Liu Cai'er quickly jumped down from the seat.

"Thump, thump, thump," she ran to the edge of the flying boat, gazing curiously at the scenery outside, and shouted excitedly:

"Oh, we are going to our new home!"

After more than two months of flying boat travel,

the two little girls, after the initial novelty, began to feel bored and dull.

So for the rest of the time, the two of them had been listless.

Now that they knew they were about to reach their new home, they were naturally both expectant and excited.

Not long after, the flying boat carrying the four of them arrived before a formation barrier.

After Ye Zhaoheng summoned his attendant token, he piloted the flying boat into the formation barrier, speeding toward the location of the Qingxuan Blessed Land.

After continuing to fly for some time, the flying boat carrying the four of them finally arrived at the mountain peak where the Qingxuan Blessed Land was located.

Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu brought the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er, out of the flying boat and landed on a platform outside the stone pavilion.

At this moment, the two little girls were constantly turning their small heads, lightly biting a finger on their right hand, curiously surveying the scenery around the mountain peak.

Gazing at the fairy-like, beautiful scenery surrounding the mountain peak, the two little girls immediately felt a sense of novelty.

At this time, Ye Qingxuan, who had been in seclusion within the Qingxuan Blessed Land, received Ye Zhaoheng's transmission and silently appeared inside the stone pavilion.

Sensing Ye Qingxuan's arrival, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu hurriedly bowed and said:

"Young Master!"

Ye Qingxuan nodded slightly, but his gaze curiously turned toward the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er, behind them.

Meanwhile, the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er, were also hiding behind Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, biting their fingers and tilting their small heads as they curiously sized up Ye Qingxuan.

Looking at the two little girls, Ye Qingxuan asked in confusion:

"Zhaoheng, Zhaoyu, who are these two little girls?"

Although a strand of his Primordial Spirit resided within the World Map carried by Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu,

during ordinary times, that strand of his Primordial Spirit slept within the World Map.

Therefore, Ye Qingxuan knew nothing about the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er.

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's question, Ye Zhaoheng stepped forward, looked up cautiously at Ye Qingxuan, and began to explain:

"Young Master, these two little girls are attendants we retrieved for you."

"Attendants? Them?"

Looking at the two little girls who were only five or six years old, Ye Qingxuan felt speechless.

He helplessly looked at the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu.

For a moment, he wondered if entrusting the task of finding attendants to the two brothers had been somewhat unreliable.

However, since the matter was already done, Ye Qingxuan did not intend to reject the choice made by Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu.

While Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu felt somewhat uneasy, Ye Qingxuan finally spoke slowly:

"Very well, let it be them!"

Looking at the two little girls, who were hiding behind Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, sizing him up, with porcelain-like skin and exquisitely delicate features,

Ye Qingxuan sighed softly in his heart:

"If they are a bit younger, then let them be a bit younger."

Afterwards, Ye Qingxuan gazed gently at the two little girls and asked:

"Little girls, what are your names?"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's voice, the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er, hesitated and instinctively looked up at Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu.

Sensing the gaze of the two little girls,

Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu extended their hands and gently pushed the two little girls forward.

They pushed the two little girls to the front, then each placed a hand gently on their small heads to comfort them.

Feeling the comfort from Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, the two little girls relaxed, instinctively holding each other's hands, and spoke in turn:

"Uncle, my name is Liu Yun'er!"

"Uncle, my name is Liu Cai'er!"

"Uncle?"

Hearing the two little girls address Ye Qingxuan as "Uncle," Ye Qingxuan fell silent.

Meanwhile, the two brothers, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, felt extremely awkward.

"Ahem!"

Ye Zhaoyu instinctively coughed lightly and corrected:

"Yun'er, Cai'er, you must address him as Young Master!"

Hearing Ye Zhaoyu's words, the two little girls, Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er, looked at Ye Zhaoyu in confusion.

Finally, the two little girls obediently spoke again to introduce themselves:

"Young Master, my name is Liu Yun'er!"

"Young Master, my name is Liu Cai'er!"
