Yan Tianhen asked with great concern, "Did they reconcile?"
Before leaving, Yan Tianhen clearly saw Zhan Fengting, who had always been warm, gentle and soft-spoken, slap Hai Kuanglang's face. When that slap hit him, he had felt his own face hurt.
Speaking of which, Hai Kuanglang forcibly breaking through Dragon Tomb's barrier was really irresponsible to the people of the whole world. However, the word "love" always made people act selfish. If it was Yan Tianhen, he wouldn't have been able to watch Lin Xuanzhi just die as well.
That slap probably chilled Hai Kuanglang's heart.
The Dragon Emperor said, "They didn't leave together. Little Lang left first. Fengting found him gone, and then hurriedly went to follow him."
Yan Tianhen blinked."Hai Shixiong must be angry. Otherwise, with his temper that likes to cling to Zhan Shixiong, he can't be willing to leave without him."
The Dragon Emperor also pressed his eyebrows together helplessly and said to himself, "But don't worry too much. One of them is the future Dragon Emperor of my dragon clan, and the other is the dragon clan's Holy Maiden. They are destined to be together. Young couples always have to quarrel a little in order to strengthen their bond."
Several pairs of eyes looked at the Dragon Emperor.
You Ming said, "Say, Longyao Xuan, since when did Hai Kuanglang become your family's Holy Maiden?"
Yan Tianhen also looked surprised."Isn't that Longyao Yizhu?"
Now that everything had already happened, the Dragon Emperor felt that there was nothing to hide, so he said, "My dragon clan's Holy Maiden has always been Little Lang."
He explained, "When Little Lang was born, Ah Jing was the only person close to him. He lost his mother when he was born. Ah Jing regarded him as her own child. However, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to protect Little Lang, so she gave half of her cultivation and all her blessings to Little Lang, but sealed his powers for the time being. Only when he becomes an adult will he be able to unlock it. But something went wrong, and Little Lang's seal was released ahead of time. But at that time, his identity was Ah Jing's son, and he was already hated enough. Thus, after much thought, Fengting and I decided to continue to hide this matter and announce to the public that the newly-awakened Holy Maiden is Longyao Yizhu."
Yan Tianhen clicked his tongue."Dragon Emperor, you really have too many schemes."
But he also felt happy after some thought. As a result, Hai Kuanglang and Zhan Fengting were destined to be a pair. No matter what, they were fated to be together.
Lin Xuanzhi also showed a sudden look of understanding."I was wondering why Hai Kuanglang could open the gate to the Dragon Tomb Holy Land. So it was because of this."
The Dragon Emperor also sighed with emotion, "Therefore, I've always suspected that only the Holy Maidens are the biological children of our Ancestor. The Dragon Emperor and everyone else are just adopted."
Yan Zhonghua said to Xuan Wushe, "You've always had contact with the former Pill Emperor, Yi Buxun. You might as well mention the matter regarding the Illuminating Sky Cauldron to the Pill Emperor's descendants first so that after we get there, we can speed up the progress."
Xuan Wushe naturally agreed."I just released the paper crane and told Yi Zishang, the son of Yi Buxun, about it first. However, my relationship with Yi Zishang is average, so it is hard to say whether he will agree."
He looked at Yan Zhonghua and smiled."But with your relationship with the South Sovereign, you just have to say a word to borrow the cauldron."
Yan Zhonghua: "..."
Why must you hurt me?
You Ming sneered again, his displeasure self-evident.
Yan Tianhen shrugged and secretly stuck out his tongue at Lin Xuanzhi.
Seeing this, Lin Zhan went over and rubbed Yan Tianhen's head."Stupid, my family's Xuanzhi lured you to him so easily."
You Ming raised his eyebrows."Your family's Xuanzhi? Xuan Wushe, your wife is giving another man territory right in front of your eyes. How can you be so indifferent?"
Of course, You Ming knew that the relationship between Lin Zhan and Lin Xuanzhi was by no means lovers. So to speak, he just wanted to find out what connection Lin Xuanzhi had with the East Empress.
Xuan Wushe hooked his lips and said lightly, "This is my son."
You Ming replied, "Oh, this is your son... What did you say?"
After dropping such a bombshell, Xuan Wushe then shut his mouth like a clam.
You Ming was so anxious that he scratched his head and wished to pry open Xuan Wushe's mouth."Tell me clearly, what do you mean he's your son? Do you mean adopted or illegitimate son?"
You Ming muttered to himself, "Definitely not an illegitimate child, or else Lin Zhan would chop you to death, right? No, is this the son you two secretly gave birth to?"
You Ming thought this was most likely. After all, Lin Zhan was quite keen on Lin Xuanzhi. With Lin Zhan's temper, although he was unlikely to be a stepmother who would abuse his stepson into a dog, he would never be so attentive to a stepson. You Ming was severely shocked by this idea.
He was stunned to see Lin Zhan, who did not refute but nodded with a smile, and felt a little complicated.
"Dad, in fact, you knew this before." Yan Tianhen couldn't help feeling that You Ming was overreacting.
He tugged You Ming's clothes and said, "But when the Five Continents' barrier was opened, the Dao of Heaven intervened. That's why you forgot Dage. He used to live with godfather all the time."
You Ming couldn't resist gasping and said, "You guys hide secrets way too well. To think that you could hide such a big matter for so many years. For so many years, I stared at the two of you, thinking about when you'd have a son."
Xuan Wushe also looked at Lin Zhan with pride.
Lin Zhan said, "I wanted to find a suitable opportunity to say it, but I couldn't find it."
"No." You Ming frowned and said, "Your son is the first heir, so if that happens, what would my son do?"
Yan Zhonghua: "..."
Only You Ming could be so simple and straightforward when talking about the succession unabashedly.
Lin Xuanzhi smiled."You can rest assured that I won't compete with Ah Hen for this succession. Moreover, if Ah Hen wants that position, I will do my best to help him and never hide anything."
Lin Zhan also said, "Everyone is one family now, so why care about such a title? Moreover, since they have decided to be together, it is time to disclose Xuanzhi's identity. After all, it is a strong alliance, and other people who covet the supreme position should also weigh their identity and strength."
Xuan Wushe said, "This matter should be handled with caution. Xuanzhi has been in the limelight recently, so he doesn't need to attract more attention. Otherwise, he will attract the attention of the current emperor, and that person has never been kind to the Xuan clan."
"That's true." Lin Zhan nodded thoughtfully.
In the end, Lin Zhan and Xuan Wushe decided to go back to the East Land together to find out the information about cultivating the body with evil Qi. Lin Xuanzhi and Yan Tianhen and the others went to the South Land to borrow the cauldron together, and after refining the pill, they would return to the North Land to give it to Yan Huaizhen.
The two tiger cubs decided to go back with Fu Li to accept the inheritance of the tiger family, so as to improve the cubs' cultivation as soon as possible and inspire them to prepare for future battles.
Before leaving, Yan Tianhen whistled a few times at the sky. After a moment of silence, a fat rabbit, which looked like a round ball and was white all over, quickly rolled and hopped towards Yan Tianhen. Because the rabbit was raised too round, it looked like a snowball from a distance.
The rabbit howled and cried, and quickly grabbed Yan Tianhen's clothes and climbed into his arms. It didn't even dare to look Lin Xuanzhi in the eyes.
You Ming tsked and asked, "When did you get a rabbit?"
Yan Tianhen touched the rabbit's ear."In fact, it just looks like a rabbit, but in essence, it's actually very powerful."
You Ming glanced at the rabbit and was not interested."This is also good. If there's nothing to eat on the road, we can roast it to fill our stomachs."
Fu Zhu: "..."
Fu Zhu was about to cry, and his red eyes were like drops of blood.
Yan Tianhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, this rabbit can hunt. Take it with you, and you'll never die of hunger."
Without further delay, You Ming and Yan Zhonghua joined together on a sword and took the lead in getting on the road to leave. They also placed some magic talismans on the sword to help speed up. Lin Xuanzhi and Yan Tianhen followed.
Lin Xuanzhi looked at the rabbit shivering in Yan Tianhen's arms, which cast secretive glances at him from time to time. He said, "Fu Zhu looks more pleasing to the eye like this."
Yan Tianhen nodded."I think so too."
Lin Xuanzhi asked, "Is this the ancient beast that you released when you were in the Tomb of Youshan?"
Yan Tianhen replied, "I didn't remember the past until I released Fu Zhu."
He voluntarily revealed, "I couldn't bear the thought of Fu Zhu dying with me, so I sealed him in the Tomb of Youshan ahead of time. Fu Zhu only listened to my orders from beginning to end. It was only because I as his master cultivated evil Qi that there was evil Qi in his body. In fact, he's still an ancient spirit beast, so he won't spread more evil Qi in Heaven and Earth."
Lin Xuanzhi said, "I remember that there was more than one ancient beast around you before."
Yan Tianhen sighed."But in the end, only this one survived. All the others are dead. If they didn't insist on following me and becoming the enemies of the Nine Lands, maybe now they would've all become grand monsters admired by everyone, and they wouldn't need to end up in ruin and come to a bad end."
When Lin Xuanzhi heard his melancholic tone, he knew that he had accidentally reminded Yan Tianhen of a sad memory.
During the Spirit Sect period, when ancient beasts were everywhere, Lingyu liked to raise some flowers and plants, and also liked to freely raise some beasts as well. Lingyu started raising most of these beasts when they were still young — only the size of his palm — so these monsters were very loyal to Lingyu.
When Lingyu left, Spirit Sect's beasts were divided into two groups. At that time, they had a fight, which darkened the world and dimmed the sun and moon. Some of them chased after Lingyu and left Spirit Sect, while the vast majority of them chose to remain behind to defend Spirit Sect. When they met again, they were already enemies.
Lin Xuanzhi said, "If the spiritual energy is abundant and the road to ascension is reopened, the ancient monsters that have been unable to wake up because of the depletion and barrenness of spiritual Qi will certainly reappear. As long as we eliminate the evil Qi cultivators, mend Heaven's Wail, and then plant the remaining sacred Jianmu tree that Xi He left behind, the Nine Lands will usher in a new Myriad Dao Era."
Yan Tianhen smiled and looked forward to the future.
He couldn't help but think of Tu Feng.
Was Tu Feng innocent? Of course, he wasn't innocent, because Yan Tianhen knew better than anyone else. If Tu Feng wanted his evil gu to exert its maximum strength, then he would have to use living humans as nests for his insects. He directly controlled people's thoughts and behaviors, and then had his insects slowly and thoroughly devour their life force. It was truly impossible to count how many people Tu Feng killed.
After a moment, Yan Tianhen's smile faded gradually."Dage, who exactly do you think that Tu Feng is?"
