Chapter 587: Ye Xiu: He Is a Man Worth Entrusting

A certain person's face involuntarily floated into my mind.

It's too similar!

"Is this your child?"

Li Daoyun pointed at Xiao Chen, his eyes unbelievably terrified.

Isn't the child's father the Academy's Guest Minister Elder Ye Xiu? Then why does he look so much like the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt?

Could it be...

The child's father is the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt?

"Impossible!"

Rumor has it the Emperor Sovereign has a child, protected well at the Summit of the Hunt; how could it possibly be in their Academy?

Could Ye Xiu and the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt be relatives? So their child would resemble the Emperor Sovereign?

But no one has heard that the Emperor Sovereign has any relatives.

Ye Qingran thought for a moment and understood why Li Daoyun reacted so oddly.

Indeed, Xiao Chen looks a lot like his father.

Only, most people have never seen the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt in person; even if they have, they wouldn't readily associate Xiao Chen with that Emperor Sovereign.

No wonder Li Daoyun reacted that way.

Before Ye Qingran could answer, Xiaohu Xiaocheng hurriedly clutched Ye Qingran's thigh, "Dean Grandpa, does it even need to be said? Of course we are mother's children."

Li Daoyun showed a polite yet awkward smile.

He didn't doubt that the child's birth mother was Ye Qingran; what he doubted was the child's father...

"Your father..."

"Our dad is the Academy's Guest Minister Elder Ye Xiu!"

Li Daoyun: "......"

Ye Qingran humorously patted the two children's heads and said with a smile, "Xiaohu Xiaocheng, Dean Grandpa isn't an outsider; we don't need to hide it from him."

Originally Fu Hanxiu concealed his identity merely to avoid trouble; even if his disguise fell off, it really doesn't matter.

Li Daoyun widened his eyes, feeling a bit horrified.

What does she mean? Could it be that Xiaohu Xiaocheng aren't of Ye Xiu's bloodline?

"Qingran, by doing this, might it be unfair to Elder Ye Xiu?"

Li Daoyun spoke earnestly.

Who the child's father is no longer matters; what matters is that Ye Xiu is Ye Qingran's man, yet not the child's father?

Ye Qingran made a questioning face, "What does that mean?"

"The child isn't Ye Xiu's; does Ye Xiu know?"

What?

The child isn't Ye Xiu's?

Ye Qingran looked at Li Daoyun for a second, finally catching on.

Turns out Li Daoyun misread the situation, thinking she cheated on Ye Xiu?

She twitched the corner of her mouth, deciding to joke, "I know!"

"Know?" Knowing so calmly?

Li Daoyun expressed confusion.

"Ye Xiu is a man worthy of entrusting; from now on, you... be nicer to him!"

Knowing the child isn't his, yet treating Ye Qingran so well, even regarding the child as his own.

In this world, perhaps no man surpasses Ye Xiu as a good man.

Although his status is a bit ordinary and his masked appearance is marred, those don't matter; as long as he treats Ye Qingran well, that's enough!

Ye Qingran: "......"

She felt like laughing.

"Did you hear? Be a bit nicer to me!"

Fu Hanxiu's voice came from outside, and in the next instant his tall, upright figure appeared at the entrance of Qingfeng Cave.

"Hmm, indeed, I really should be nicer to you, after all the child isn't yours!"

Ye Qingran smiled mischievously.

Xiaohu Xiaocheng blinked, his little face bewildered.

How could they not be dad's children again?

Fu Hanxiu twisted his eyebrows.

Just now he only heard Li Daoyun earnestly tell Ye Qingran to be nicer to him, and didn't catch the earlier conversation.

So the premise of that sentence was that Li Daoyun thought Ye Qingran had betrayed him?

"The child isn't mine; then whose could it be?" Fu Hanxiu swept his long arm, pulling Ye Qingran into his embrace, and with his other hand shielded the two children in front of him.

The family of four were inseparably close, the male and female leads loving each other deeply.

As if proclaiming sovereignty!

Li Daoyun examined Fu Hanxiu carefully; not looking closely was fine, but the more he looked, the more his heart raced.

Previously unnoticed, Ye Xiu seemed shrouded in mist, making it hard to discern at a glance; the more closely he was examined, the more his hidden depths were revealed!

"Elder Ye, what relation does he have with the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt?"

He became increasingly certain that the Ye Xiu before him must have a great connection with the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt!

"Dean Grandpa, dad is the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Hunt!"

Xiao Hu tugged at her father's sleeve, her tone tinged with pride.

At those words, Li Daoyun's gaze instantly shattered.

This child says his father is the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt?!

"Dean Grandfather, you should have seen my Father Lord; I look just like Father Lord, didn't you guess?"

Li Daoyun: "......"

Child, who would dare think in that direction?

He would rather believe that people in this world can look strikingly alike, and would not dare to believe you are the Emperor Sovereign's child!

Moreover, the world only knows the Emperor Sovereign has a single offspring; when did another appear?

Li Daoyun, shocked again, stared straight at Fu Hanxiu.

Ye Qingran bumped Fu Hanxiu's waist with her elbow, laughing mischievously, "Emperor Sovereign, your disguise fell off!"

Fu Hanxiu lowered his eyes to look at her, then reached out and removed the silver mask from his face.

A familiar face instantly appeared in Li Daoyun's view.

A face chiseled like a knife and axe, stunningly handsome, worthy of creation's admiration.

A demonic god's body, an emperor's aura, and the fleeting figure from his memory overlapped completely!

If it's not the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt, who else could it be?

"Emperor Sovereign..."

"Hmm."

Fu Hanxiu lightly nodded, as a response.

Even though Li Daoyun's seniority is above Fu Hanxiu's, this world has always spoken through strength; Fu Hanxiu's strength surpasses his, making him more esteemed.

If not for the fact that he is Ye Qingran's senior uncle, with his temperament, ignoring him would be possible.

Even Lu Yunfeng was stunned.

It turned out that the Academy's Guest Minister Elder's true identity is the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt.

"Hahaha~" surprised, Li Daoyun shook his head and chuckled lightly.

The Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt actually lowered his status, serving as an obscure Guest Minister Elder at their Shenzhou Academy.

Although the Guest Minister Elder of the Shenzhou Academy is already a prestigious position for many, for the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt it truly means nothing.

Li Daoyun smiled; besides this reason, more so because the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of the Deer Hunt is actually his niece's husband!

To him, this is a face‑brightening honor!

"I told you, Xiao Chen looks so much like the Emperor Sovereign; turns out it's the Emperor Sovereign's bloodline."

At this moment, the father and son stood together, looking about seventy‑or‑eighty percent alike; Xiao Chen was practically a tiny Emperor Sovereign.
