After staying in the Sky Cloud Martial School for a day, Ye Chen rushed to the Ye family in Luo City the next morning.
The Sky Cloud Martial School was twelve thousand miles away from Luo City. When he was still an outer disciple, it took Ye Chen half a month to go home for the first time. But now, riding on the flying puppet, it only took him half an hour. If he didn't ride on the flying puppet and used the sword light flying skill, the time would be even shorter.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the sky above Luo City, the flying puppet slowly descended. Its huge wings kept flapping, creating a whirlwind.
"Young Master Chen is back!"
When Ye Chen jumped down from the flying puppet and stood in front of the Ye family's gate, the thousands of people in the Ye family all started to move. Some prepared for the banquet, some came out to welcome him, and some cleaned the yard. It was a very busy scene.
"Chen 'er!"
As soon as Ye Chen entered the gate, Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing already walked over. Beside them were a boy and a girl about six or seven years old. They looked very similar to the young Ye Chen.
"Father, mother!"
A gentle smile bloomed on Ye Chen's face. It was the smile of a son returning home. He then greeted the other elders.
"Good, good!" At this moment, Ye Tianhao couldn't say anything. He kept repeating the word 'good', and then looked at Ye Chen with all his might. It seemed like he wanted to see how his son had changed in the past few years.
Shen Yuqing grabbed Ye Chen's hand. His eyes were red, "You little bastard. You didn't come home even once in a few years. Do you miss your father and me?"
Ye Tianhao came back to his senses. He glared at Shen Yuqing and said contradictory words, "Our son is a man who will do great things. How can I come back just like that? But Chen 'er, if you have time, you still have to come back."
"Alright."
Ye Chen felt warmth in his heart. After all, the people of the Sky Cloud Martial School were not related to him by blood. After a long time, they would become estranged from each other. However, home would always be home, and parents would always be parents. They would not become distant just because their son had become stronger.
"Big brother! Carry! "
Perhaps it was because they were related by blood, or perhaps it was because they contained a trace of Ye Chen's Dragon Vein Qi, but the boy and the girl recognized Ye Chen at first glance. They were not shy at all, hugging Ye Chen's thigh and shaking it vigorously, clamoring for him to hug them. Their rosy cheeks and watery eyes were very lovable.
Chuckling, Ye Chen picked up the little boy and the little girl, one in each hand, and said to Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing, "Father, mother, I've made you worry. Little Xuan and Little Xiao, be good!"
Hearing this, Shen Yuqing's expression was incomparably happy. Hearing this, he said, "Little Xiao is a bit better, but Xuan 'er is a troublemaker, and will soon become the tyrant of Luo City."
Ye Chen looked at Ye Xuan, "Little Xuan, is it true?"
"Big brother, I did not bully anyone." Ye Xuan lowered his head, afraid that Ye Chen would not like him.
"Bullying people is wrong. As time goes by, people will not like you, and will gradually hate you. Do you want everyone to dislike you? Of course, big brother is not asking you to be bullied without fighting back. As long as you do not take the initiative to bully others, it will be fine. "
"Got it, big brother!"
Hehe!
Ye Xiaoxiao giggled at the side. Seeing Ye Xuan being humiliated made her very happy.
"Chen 'er, I've already asked people to prepare a banquet. Let's go inside and talk." Ye Tianhao said.
"Okay!"
Ye Chen carried Ye Xuan and Ye Xiaoxiao and followed behind.
The banquet lasted until late at night. Ye Batian also attended the banquet. As for Ye Tang, he was still in the Emerald Valley, while Ye Feng had joined the South Rudra Sect. Ever since the destruction of the Purple Sun Sect, the disciples and elders of the Purple Sun Sect had either joined the South Rudra Sect or the Emerald Valley. Very few joined the Sky Cloud Sect, mainly because there were too many conflicts in the past.
Ye Chen no longer cared about Ye Batian. According to his father, Ye Batian had completely changed. He had started to think about the family in all aspects, and his relationship with everyone had greatly changed. Therefore, if he continued to care about it, he would seem petty. Moreover, he was no longer the little genius of the past. Although the current him was not invincible in the South Rudra Region, there was almost no one who could threaten him. His goal was the entire continent and the Endless Ocean. Tangling with some past conflicts would undoubtedly be too narrow-minded.
The past was the past, and the most important thing was the future.
…
By the time Ye Chen returned to the Sky Cloud Sect, the news had already spread like wildfire. On the seventh day of his return, the entire Windy Nation knew that Ye Chen had returned. The originally somewhat peaceful Jianghu once again exploded. Many people rushed to Luo City from far away, or to some nearby towns, just to catch a glimpse of Ye Chen's true appearance.
Looking at the overcrowded Luo City, the Luo City Lord and the Ye Family's Patriarch, Ye Tianhao, felt somewhat helpless. However, deep down, they were actually quite proud, especially the former. He didn't have much of a relationship with Ye Chen, so he cherished the honor he received from Ye Chen even more. He firmly believed that as long as he did his best and didn't abuse his power, Ye Tianhao wouldn't let him step down. Moreover, Luo City's prospects were too good. He had already begun to discuss with Ye Tianhao about expanding Luo City and making it into a city comparable to the Royal City. As for the Windy Nation's Emperor, he would definitely support it. Nowadays, who would dare to offend the Ye Family of Luo City?
Moreover, Ye Chen's statue had been built in the Luo City's central plaza since the day before yesterday. According to the scale, it would be a hundred meters tall golden statue.
"Big brother Ye Chen!"
In the hall of Ye Chen's courtyard, a lot of people had gathered.
The one who spoke was Fourth Uncle Ye Wenhao's daughter, Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan was half a year younger than Ye Chen, and was already twenty-three years old. She had a dignified appearance and a tall and slender figure. However, standing in front of Ye Chen, she seemed very reserved, and would sneak glances at him from time to time.
Ye Chen faintly smiled, "Little Xuan, let bygones be bygones. There's no need to blindly think about it. Right now, you're also a mediocre Late Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist. Try a bit harder and advance to Astral Reaching Realm as soon as possible. Don't tell me you don't have any confidence?"
"I will."
Ye Xuan let out a sigh of relief. The pressure Ye Chen gave her was too great. Sitting there, she almost couldn't breathe. This wasn't because Ye Chen was doing it on purpose, but because she had too many distracting thoughts in her mind. Some elders and juniors of Ye Family didn't feel the slightest bit of pressure in front of Ye Chen. They only felt that Ye Chen was very lofty.
"Ye Chen, we …" Ye Tang and Ye Feng both looked at Ye Chen nervously.
Ye Chen was a bit helpless as he smiled at them, "You guys are the same. As long as you think about the family, it will be fine. Of course, the most important thing is to increase your own power. Only by increasing your power can you strengthen the family and protect the family, because you guys are just like me, part of the family."
"Thank you, Ye Chen."
Ye Tang and Ye Feng were both embarrassed, feeling that they were very childish before.
"Oh right, where's Ye Hai?" Ye Hai was the one who had a good relationship with Ye Chen, and he had even given him a Yuan Light Ball.
Ye Tianhao said, "Ye Hai is the same as you. After he left with his master, he hasn't come back yet. His parents are always thinking about him. Sigh!"
Hearing him, Ye Chen frowned.
If Ye Hai were still in South Rudra Region, it wouldn't be a problem. But, if he were to leave South Rudra Region, then he wouldn't be able to find out anything. What he was most afraid of was running into some kind of danger.
"If there's a chance in the future, I'll ask someone to ask around."
…
In the blink of an eye, another ten days had passed. Apart from cultivating every day, Ye Chen spent most of his time chatting with his parents and siblings, trying to make up for the many years he owed them.
During this time, South Rudra Sect's leader, Long Biyi, personally came with three youngsters. They were Rain Hero Nangong Yun and Yuan Xuemei, as well as a disciple that Ye Chen didn't recognize. Without exception, all three had entered Astral Reaching realm.
Their purpose was very simple: to select the fifty spectators for the Martial Tea Gathering.
Without saying a word, Ye Chen approved all of them.
Long Biyi and Dragon God Celestial Palace's kindness to Ye Chen would never be forgotten by Ye Chen.
After South Rudra Sect, North Snow Martial Academy was next.
North Snow Martial Academy also had three young experts who had entered Astral Reaching realm. They were Young Master North Snow Su Wen, 'Quick Blade' Lynch, and 'Tyrant Blade' Yu Yue.
Su Wen was currently the leader of North Snow Martial Academy, and his cultivation base was at mid Astral Reaching realm. Yu Yue was at early Astral Reaching realm. As for the ordinary-looking Lynch, his cultivation base was the highest, reaching late Astral Reaching realm. His body was suffused with a trace of sharp and formless blade Qi.
"Lynch, your blade intent has already reached perfection. You have the strength to participate in the Martial Tea Gathering. " How powerful was Ye Chen's eyesight? Even if Lynch intentionally hid his blade intent, it couldn't escape Ye Chen's senses.
Xue Wuren, who had abdicated as Supreme Elder, smiled and said, "Ye Chen, I wonder what level Lynch is at in the Martial Tea Gathering?"
Ye Chen said in a low voice, "I don't know this time, but last time, it should be low grade."
Hearing these words, the faces of everyone in the hall changed, including those of Ye family.
There was no one in Windy Nation who didn't know Lynch's strength. In fact, if there were no Ye Chen, Lynch would definitely be the number one expert in Windy Nation.
This kind of strength was actually low grade in the Martial Tea Gathering. Moreover, it was last time. Just how high was the level of this Martial Tea Gathering?
It was simply unheard of!
Finally, people from the Emerald Martial School arrived.
There were three of them. One was the leader of the Emerald Martial School, Zhuang Qingxian, one was Liu Wuxiang, and the last one was Ji Xueyan. Young Master Emerald Zhuang Fei was naturally also an Astral Reaching expert, but he didn't come.
Ever since Ye Chen's complete rise, Zhuang Qingxian had already given up on dominating Windy Nation. Therefore, he abdicated to Liu Wuxiang, making him the new leader.
Liu Wuxiang was a peaceful person, neither arrogant nor rash, which made him worthy of being the leader.
"Ye Chen, we are all from the same Windy Nation. I wonder if our leader Liu Wuxiang and Ji Xueyan have the right to enter the top fifty?" The new Martial Tea Gathering would be held in a few months, and all the martial institutions had gradually learned about the privileges of the hosts. Therefore, Zhuang Qingxian had thrown away his pride and brought his people here. In fact, he was quite worried, not knowing if Ye Chen would refuse right away or not.
Ye Chen nodded, "Two, or three?"
"Three. The other one is my son, Zhuang Fei." Zhuang Qingxian said carefully.
"Sure."
Ye Chen had originally planned to let all the young Astral Reaching experts of Windy Nation watch the Martial Tea Gathering, regardless of who it was. Of course, if they didn't come, he wouldn't take the initiative to include them. After all, apart from Windy Nation, there were many young Astral Reaching experts in South Rudra Region.
Standing beside Zhuang Qingxian, Ji Xueyan's expression was extremely complicated. She bit her lower lip and blankly stared at Ye Chen, looking at the little youngster who had now become a peerless genius of South Rudra Region.
At this moment, Ye Chen's gaze also shifted to Ji Xueyan.
