Wan’an City has been reached.

Compared to the past, Wan’an City has developed increasingly well, evidently becoming the most prosperous city within Yun Country.

Of course, this is greatly related to the Ye Family of Wan’an City.

Firstly, the Ye Family of Wan’an City has openly acknowledged their relationship with the Eternal Mountain Ye Family.

Secondly, the young master of the Ye Family, Ye Xuan, has long since earned worldwide fame.

Thirdly, Ye Mingtian, the third brother of the Ye Family from years past, has returned. It is rumored that this third brother, Ye Mingtian, fared extremely well outside, even overshadowing the fame of his own son, Ye Xuan.

The wife he married was none other than the Holy Daughter of Kunlun Ruins from back in the day, also someone from the main lineage of the Jiang Family of Longevity Family.

With such a background, Wan’an City Ye Family indeed received a grand coat of gold.

Not to mention ordinary people, even the Human Emperor of Yun Country or the Human Emperor of Star Moon Upper Country must be respectful upon arrival.

Star Moon Upper Country is very understanding, having profited back then from Star Moon Sect’s support of Ye Xuan, allowing Star Moon Upper Country to become a renowned Upper Country in the Southern Domain, second only to the Lie Tian Heavenly Country, which shares lineage with the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Because of this, the status of Wan’an City Ye Family is actually very high in the Southern Domain.

This has attracted more and more businesses to set up in Wan’an City.

As a result, Wan’an City’s development naturally improves more and more.

And with Ye Mingtian returning to the Ye Family, Ye Family’s spiritual medicine business also prospers increasingly.

It is renowned throughout the entire Southern Domain.

Previously, Tong Shishi’s praises for the Ye Family were, in essence, moderately conservative as she lacked in-depth understanding.

However, due to Ye Xuan’s connection, Tong Shishi was the first to purchase the desired batch of spiritual medicine. For this, Tong Shishi wished to invite Ye Xuan for a grand meal to express her gratitude, but Ye Xuan had returned home for reasons other than accompanying Tong Shishi, so he postponed the meeting.

Tong Shishi naturally understood that Ye Xuan had matters to attend to and could only lament, repeatedly expressing gratitude to Ye Xuan before temporarily residing in Wan’an City to clear her thoughts.

Regarding this, Ye Xuan had nothing further to say.

The words he spoke to Tong Shishi on the way were already a benevolent act.

To be honest, initially toward this overly kind young lady, Ye Xuan felt no particular fondness.

Though, after several chance encounters, he observed Tong Shishi’s change and thought she was a promising talent, so he offered her some advice. How much she understood depended on her.

Throughout ancient eras, Ye Xuan has seen many gifted individuals but due to their personality, they ended up with a tragically different life.

A person’s decisions at every turning point greatly impact their entire life.

Just like Ye Xuan.

If back then, he fell into despair after being refined into that monster body, would the Undying Night Emperor have been born?

Naturally, it wouldn’t have happened.

Or, if Ye Xuan was subdued by the Emperor Burial Lord, choosing to become his pawn as one of his subordinates, then today, Ye Xuan would face a completely different situation.

So, at every life’s turning point, each choice you make shapes a different future scene.

Whether the outcome is joyful or sorrowful, you can only know once reaching that point.

For the successful, looking back, they appreciate their past choices, reminiscing and strengthening their conviction to continue onward.

For the unsuccessful, perhaps regret prevails for making such choices.

When facing choices, people’s personality often plays a significant deciding role.

In summary, Ye Xuan’s words to Tong Shishi are entirely beneficial without harm.

Otherwise, Tong Shishi would certainly meet her end due to her excessive kindness in the future.

This, Ye Xuan sees very clearly.

Although Tong Shishi’s kindness was somewhat excessive, Ye Xuan ultimately did not wish for a kind-hearted girl to face ruin and death.

It’s inherently wrong.

Despite spanning ancient times, some things when doable should be done.

Perhaps insignificant.

Yet, it holds its meaning.

......

"How does it feel?"

In the small courtyard.

Father and son were sitting together fishing, Ye Mingtian grasped the pole in one hand, resting the other behind his head, half-lying on the chair as he asked with a smile.

Ye Xuan, however, was sitting cross-legged on a cloud, his hands tucked in his sleeves, the fishing rod floating automatically, eyes half shut, speaking leisurely, "Really boring."

Ye Mingtian rolled his eyes and said, "Son, bring some youthful spirit, you are now the most renowned strongest Reserve Emperor in the Xuanhuang Great World, soon to embark on the peak of the Emperor Road, why appear so old-fashioned?"

Ye Xuan glanced at his father with annoyance, speaking calmly, "As my father, watching your son being besieged, you’re not worried at all? Not visiting Zhongxuan Mountain?"

Ye Mingtian pursed his lips, "You brat, I brought your true self to the Eternal Ground, the one left at Zhongxuan Mountain is clearly an avatar, why should I bother?"

Smack!

Ye Mingtian received a slap on the forehead.

Ye Mingtian’s eyes rolled up and caught sight of a stunning visage, instantly frightened into sitting upright, nervously speaking, "Wife, why are you here."

The visitor was Ye Mingtian’s wife, Jiang Ye, also Ye Xuan’s mother.

Jiang Ye was still dressed in her plain white attire, serene and indifferent, her immaculate visage without makeup, yet still outshining the so-called fairies.

This was indeed the Kunlun Saintess from back then, who drove countless young cultivators in the Cultivation World crazy, even the Changsheng Hall’s Dao Thousand Jie Saint Heir secretly admired Jiang Ye.

Alas, who would’ve thought such a Kunlun Saintess would be swept away by a poor lad from Daozhou East Desolation South Domain.

"Don’t be so unseemly in front of Xiao Xuan."

Jiang Ye glared at Ye Mingtian, speaking irritably.

"Certainly, wife." Ye Mingtian agreed instantly, then lamented with despair, "But shouldn’t a father like me have dignity before Xiao Xuan?"

"Say no more!" Jiang Ye pinched Ye Mingtian’s ear hard, forcing him to beg for mercy.

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on the side, filled with black lines, always feeling like his old man wanted to take advantage of him.

The key is, there’s no retorting, isn’t it?

Oh dear.

Ye Xuan sighed, looking askew at the cloudless sky, inexplicably melancholic.

"Xiao Xuan, your father is like this, not very serious." Jiang Ye treated Ye Xuan with utmost gentleness, unlike her treatment of Ye Mingtian.

"Mother, I want to eat San Xiang." Ye Xuan sniffled, speaking softly.

"Alright, Mother will prepare it for you." Jiang Ye smiled lightly.

Seeing his mother off, Ye Xuan turned to his father and spoke softly, "Dad, do you know about the Black Sky Clan and the Guming Clan?"
