Jianchen directly made his way to Bi Yuntian's room. As soon as he arrived at the entrance, the two female attendants cried out in surprise and joy, "Greetings to the fourth young master and madam. The fourth young master has returned."
"What? Xiang'er has returned?" Bi Yuntian's joyful and excited voice rang out from the room. Soon after, a series of hurried footsteps rang out, rapidly approaching the entrance.
"You two can leave. There's no need to stand guard here. Without my orders, no one is allowed to approach this room," Jianchen said to the two female attendants before entering the room.
"Yes, madam." The two female attendants bowed slightly before leaving.
"Xiang'er, you've finally returned. You have to stay at home for a few more days this time." Bi Yuntian was graceful and luxurious. She was wearing a white gauze dress as she walked out of the room. She was excitedly staring at her son's familiar face.
Jianchen's steely heart softened for once when he saw his mother. He said, "Mother, I've been unfilial. I haven't spent much time by your side. Have you been well?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I've been well every day. Xiang'er, on the other hand, you've been running about outside all day. You must be very tired." Bi Yuntian's voice was filled with concern and heartache.
"Xiang'er, I heard that you clashed with a Saint Ruler from a large sect called the Sect of Dragon and Tiger two days ago and even chased away a mighty Saint Ruler. May I ask if that's true?"
Jian Chen nodded and smiled, "That's right, it's true. Mother, the Flame Mercenaries are much more powerful than before because there are already two Saint Rulers in the mercenaries I've founded."
"Really? That's fantastic." Bi Yuntian's expression was full of excitement. She had heard this news two days ago. Now, she just heard it from Jianchen's mouth, so she was not too shocked.
"Xiang'er, I heard from them that you've already broken through to Saint Ruler. Is that true?" Bi Yuntian followed up with a question. Her voice trembled slightly as she looked at Jianchen eagerly.
Jianchen shook his head with a bitter smile, "Mother, I'm still a Heaven Saint Master right now. I only possess the battle prowess of a Saint Ruler. At the very least, the Saint Rulers who aren't too powerful can't pose much of a threat to me."
This time, Bi Yuntian was so excited that she couldn't speak. Saint Rulers were existences that stood at the apex of the Tian Yuan Continent in her eyes. She had never thought that her son would reach such a level as well, which made her feel extremely proud as his parents.
With a son like this, what more could a husband ask for?
After a moment of thought, Jianchen said, "Mother, I've come back this time because I have a very important matter that I want an answer to."
Bi Yuntian returned to her senses very quickly. She forcefully suppressed her surging emotions and said, "Xiang'er, just tell me what you want."
"Mother, I want to ask about the Bi family this time. May I ask if you know a lot about the ancestor of the Bi family?" Jianchen asked.
Bi Yuntian's face changed when she heard about the Bi family. The excitement on her face gradually vanished and was replaced with some helplessness. She said, "Xiang'er, I was still young when the Bi family was in trouble, so I don't know a lot about the Bi family. I've only seen a statue of our ancestor."
"Mother, do you know the name of our Bi family's ancestor?" Jian Chen asked nervously.
"Not only is our ancestor the founder of the Bi family, he's also the only Saint Ruler in the family. It's because of him that the Bi family became a thousand-year-old family. Therefore, everyone in the Bi family knows the name of our ancestor. His name is Bi Hai!" Bi Yuntian said gloomily.
"Bi Hai, he's actually Bi Hai. Our ancestor's name is actually Bi Hai." Jianchen murmured in a daze. In his mind, the blue-robed old man who had injured Jiede Tai kept appearing.
Bi Yuntian also heard the hidden meaning in Jianchen's words. She asked doubtfully, "Xiang'er, have you heard of the name Bi Hai before?"
Jianchen nodded slightly, but he did not say anything. He immediately took out a pen and paper from his Space Ring and began to quickly draw on the table. Not long after, he had drawn a portrait with god-like speed. The person in the portrait was the blue-robed old man Bi Hai. It was drawn to perfection, almost identical to the real person.
Jianchen handed the portrait to Bi Yuntian and said, "Mother, do you recognize this person?"
Bi Yuntian stared at the person in the portrait and firmly shook her head. She said, "I don't recognize him. I've never seen this person before."
"Mother, didn't you say that you've seen the statue of our ancestor? Take a closer look and see if this person could be our ancestor," Jianchen asked nervously.
"Xiang'er, when I saw the statue of our ancestor, he still had the appearance of a middle-aged man. It was completely different from the old man in the portrait," said Bi Yuntian.
Jianchen powerlessly put down the portrait in his hand and lowered his head in silence.
Jianchen's demeanor and actions from before had already made Bi Yuntian think of something. She stared at Jianchen sternly and asked, "Xiang'er, tell me, did you see someone who might be our ancestor?"
Jianchen did not hide this matter and said, "Mother, I did see someone called Bi Hai. However, I have not confirmed whether he is our ancestor or not. I still need to verify it."
"Xiang'er, then what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and verify it. No matter what method you use, you have to find out whether he is our ancestor or not. Don't forget that the blood of the Bi family still flows in our veins. As long as we can find our ancestor, we can't miss out on even the slightest bit of hope or possibility." Bi Yuntian said with a face full of urgency. She placed great importance on this matter.
Jianchen's heart tightened and he said, "I understand, mother. I'll go find a way to verify it. There's no time to lose, I'll go now." With that, Jianchen turned around and left without any hesitation.
