Chapter 1164: I Am Xu Que

"Wh... what? Old man, you said... Xu Que is your son? Yaochi Saintess Bai Cailing is your daughter-in-law?" The soldier was shocked upon hearing this, completely dumbfounded!

Yaochi was the most powerful force in the Tianxiang Immortal Domain. He, a mere soldier, didn't even dare to get close on weekdays. If it weren't for sympathizing with this old man, he wouldn't have come here no matter what.

But now, this old man actually said such an absurd thing, daring to say that Yaochi Saintess Bai Cailing was his daughter-in-law.

Heavens, it was fortunate that he didn't bring him in, otherwise he would have died here today!

"Yes, I am Xu Que's father, what's wrong? Did that child of mine do something wrong?" The old man looked at the soldier with a confused and worried expression and asked.

The soldier immediately smiled bitterly: "Old man, you might have been deceived! As far as I know, Xu Que is the Gang Leader of the Zha Tian Bang. He sent his subordinates, Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, who once looted a treasure pavilion in the Yaochi Holy Land. Now Yaochi is hunting down Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude everywhere, and even Xu Que!"

"What? This... this rebellious son actually did such a shameful thing..." Upon hearing this, the old man was so angry that the veins on his hands bulged, and his face flushed red.

"I... cough, cough, cough..."

The next moment, the old man opened his mouth to continue speaking, but was overcome with anger, coughing up a mouthful of blood on the spot. His entire aura appeared increasingly desolate, on the verge of death.

The soldier's face changed drastically. He hurriedly patted the old man's back with his palm, pouring a trace of vitality into him, and comforted him: "Old man, your body is not good, you must not get angry. How about this, I will find you an inn, you rest well, but you must not tell anyone about Xu Que. Besides, it is impossible for Xu Que to have a marriage contract with the Yaochi Saintess. That kind of high-and-mighty pearl, a daughter of heaven, how could she be... uh, forget it, old man, I think you should understand!"

"I understand, I understand!" The old man nodded repeatedly, tears sliding from the corners of his eyes, his expression sad, and continued: "Little friend, you are a good person, what is your name?"

"Back to old man, my name is Zhang Mingjun, I will send you to the inn first!" The soldier smiled slightly and helped the old man prepare to leave.

However, the old man stood still, waved his hand: "Little friend Zhang, thank you! However... my unfilial child did such a thing, how can I, as a father, ignore it? You go first, this old man must give Yaochi an explanation!"

"Ah! This..." Upon hearing this, Zhang Mingjun was panicked and hurriedly persuaded: "Old man, absolutely not. If Yaochi knows that you are Xu Que's father, they will definitely..."

"This little brother, in your eyes, is my Yaochi that kind of sect that bullies the weak and doesn't reason?"

Before Zhang Mingjun finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly surged from the Yaochi Holy Land, and at the same time, a dignified female voice came.

From the voice, it could be judged that the owner of this female voice was not young, and this aura could almost judge the other party's realm, at least above the Golden Immortal Stage.

"Se... Senior, please forgive me, the little one just spoke out of turn!" Zhang Mingjun immediately knelt on the ground, full of panic.

He, a mere guard soldier of Tianxiang City, said such words outside the Yaochi Holy Land, which was indeed courting death.

"Forget it, I heard everything you said just now. Considering your kind heart, I will not hold it against you this time. You may withdraw first. As for this old man, you can come into my Yaochi." At this time, the woman's voice came again.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Mingjun breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, but looked at the old man with some worry, then gritted his teeth, bowed toward the Yaochi direction and said: "Senior, please forgive the little one for being bold. Although this old man is Xu Que's father, he is unaware of Xu Que's actions, please Senior..."

"Presumptuous!" A scolding came from the Yaochi Holy Land: "I just said, in your eyes, is my Yaochi Holy Land that overbearing? Hmph, you little kid, young and with low cultivation, you are quite righteous. I can guarantee you that we will definitely not hurt this old man in the slightest. You may withdraw. If there is another half-sentence of nonsense, you don't have to leave!"

"Yes, the little one is guilty, thank you Senior!" Zhang Mingjun hurriedly bowed, and the worry on his face disappeared completely.

Since the big shot of Yaochi had said so, they certainly wouldn't hurt this old man.

He looked at the old man, smiled, and said: "Old man, then I will send you here, please take care!"

"Good, little friend Zhang, thank you. You are really a good child!" The old man had a kind smile on his face, patting Zhang Mingjun's hand, like an elder praising a junior.

"Old man is too kind!" Zhang Mingjun smiled and scratched his head, then bid farewell to the old man and turned to leave.

At this time, the old man also looked at the Yaochi Holy Land. The gate on the steps had already opened, and several young female disciples stood outside the gate, all looking at him.

"Sigh!"

The old man shook his head slightly, sighed, and took a difficult step, heading toward the Yaochi gate.

Although every step he took was so difficult, within just a few steps, his figure had already reached the gate, which was a very simple body movement technique.

The few Yaochi female disciples at the gate were not surprised, but felt that the old man's speed was too slow. However, they didn't have the slightest impatience, because this old man was very kind, and the feeling and impression he gave were very good, just like the Zhang Mingjun before, making people couldn't help but want to sympathize with him.

"Old man, please this way. The Saintess and Deacon Lin are already waiting for you in the council hall!" One of the female disciples led the way for the old man and said with a smile.

As the female voice said before, Yaochi was not a sect that bullied the weak and didn't reason. Even if the old man claimed to be Xu Que's father, they didn't blame the old man for the hatred, not to mention that they had just heard that this old man actually came to atone for the mistakes Xu Que made. It was truly a pitiful heart of parents.

Soon, the old man was led to Yaochi by the female disciple. Entering his eyes was a series of green lakes, the lake water was incomparably clear, with lotus flowers growing, emitting rich Immortal Yuan and fragrance, refreshing the heart and spleen.

In the middle of several large lakes, there was a small path, paved with seven-colored small stones, leading to the end.

The old man walked on the small path, vaguely feeling that the vitality in his body was slightly increasing, and his whole person was much more refreshed than just now, feeling very comfortable.

He looked around curiously while following the female disciple forward.

Soon, the two had walked past the small stone path and came to a large courtyard. In the center of the courtyard was a large array, and in the center of the array was a seven-colored giant stone.

In the old man's astonished gaze, the female disciple cast a spell, opened the formation, and the seven-colored giant stone instantly flashed a blue light, shrouding the old man and rolling him into the formation.

After a burst of pulling force, the illusion in front of the old man suddenly changed, and he was actually teleported into a spacious and bright council hall.

The council hall was full of people. The Saintess's seat at the head was vacant, but dozens of chairs were arranged on the left and right sides below, arranged from front to back, almost full of women, from old to young.

Except for the first few chairs which were vacant, a young woman sat at the head, in clean white clothes, with a delicate and beautiful appearance, an extraordinary temperament. Opposite her sat a middle-aged woman. From the aura, it could be judged that the one who just transmitted the voice was this middle-aged woman.

The old man's appearance immediately attracted the attention of dozens of women in the hall.

At this time, the white-clothed female disciple at the head stood up, looked at the old man and said: "Old man, just heard you say, you are Xu Que's father?"

"Not bad, I am Xu Que's father!" The old man leaned on his cane, nodded slightly, and sighed: "Sigh, this unfilial son who doesn't live up to expectations actually did such a shameful thing. This old man apologizes and pleads guilty to everyone on his behalf!"

Saying this, the old man bent his trembling body and was about to kneel on the ground.

"Wait!"

The white-clothed woman hurriedly stopped the old man and said: "Old man, don't worry, I am the Saintess of Yaochi, Bai Cailing. I had a few encounters with your son Xu Que more than ten years ago, and was even saved by him, so we won't hold him accountable for his actions, please rest assured. However... you just said outside that Xu Que has a marriage contract with me, which is a lie. I don't know who you heard it from?"

"Ah! You are my daughter-in-law... cough, cough, sorry, this old man was abrupt. Saintess Bai, and everyone here, actually, what this old man said outside was not all. My son's marriage contract with Saintess Bai is based on a marriage contract!"

Speaking of this, the old man waved his hand and pulled a thin piece of gold paper from his crotch, with a few lines of small characters written on the paper, and "Bai Cailing"'s signature below, accompanied by her divine soul aura.

Swoosh!

In an instant, the whole hall was silent. Everyone was full of astonishment.

Bai Cailing stared straight at the gold paper, obviously recognizing this "IOU"!

But she couldn't figure out at all how the IOU became a marriage contract!
