With that thought in mind, Ye Chen nodded without hesitation. For warriors, they would train their mind at the same time as they trained. Only by focusing on their own mind would they be able to reach a higher realm. If they kept lying to themselves, they would eventually fall into the heart demon and never be able to get out of it.
Seeing Ye Chen nod, Murong Zhishui chuckled. It would be great if there was one. If there was none, then he would have come here for nothing. He would feel bad for his daughter as well, since he could tell that his daughter actually cared about Ye Chen a lot. It was just that her personality was not good at expressing it.
"I have been paying attention to you for a long time. There are spies from my family in the Windy Nation as well." Pausing for a second, Murong Zhishui continued to say, "Although Qingcheng looks so calm, she is actually not good at expressing her feelings. It is the same at home and with me. Only when she is with her mother would she show the emotions of a little girl. Therefore, she is different from you. Although this is the first time we have met, I can tell that everything you say and do comes from your heart. Even answering this kind of question is very calm."
Murong Zhishui liked Ye Chen a lot. His mentality was not only admirable, but also frightening. What kind of environment could create such a mentality? This kind of mentality was something that even Life and Death Realm warriors might not have. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and was always honest to himself.
It turned out that Murong Zhishui still had this side to him. Hearing Murong Zhishui's words, Ye Chen chuckled to himself.
"Uncle, what happened?"
Ye Chen asked.
Murong Zhishui said, "Qingcheng is not that young anymore. Originally, she was supposed to marry Yuwen Ye from the Yuwen family in half a year. But, what we did not expect was that after Qingcheng came back from the outside world, her bloodline had already grown to the perfect demon bloodline. Because some of the masters in the family were very supportive of the marriage, the news had already reached the Yuwen family. They were afraid that something bad might happen if they waited too long, so they pushed the wedding forward by three months. In other words, in three months, it would be the wedding day of Qingcheng and Yuwen Ye."
"Yuwen family is a demi demon family?"
"Indeed! There are more than twenty different families in the demi demon family. Among them, the Yuwen family is the most powerful one, which is the main family of our demi demon family. As for Yuwen Ye, he is one of the top warriors among the young generation of the Yuwen family. Plus, he is just like Qingcheng, with the perfect demi demon bloodline. He has already awakened his special power. Once Qingcheng and Yuwen Ye get married, their children will definitely have the perfect demi demon bloodline as well. That is the meaning of this marriage."
Ye Chen frowned. "What do you need me to do?"
Murong Zhishui smiled, "Very simple, snatch Qingcheng back."
Ye Chen was a bit surprised, "Although I also do not want Qingcheng to marry Yuwen Ye, but I do not understand why you, as a member of the demi demon family, would not want Qingcheng to marry Yuwen Ye. Normally, demi demons can only marry demi demons, which is the rule of your demi demon family. Plus, I am a human, not a demi demon. Being with Qingcheng would be breaking the rule of the demi demon family."
"Of course, I know that. I just do not want to see Qingcheng marry someone she does not like, especially when he is a member of the Yuwen family. I am not afraid of you laughing at me, but back in the day, I had a lover, and we loved each other very much. We could have been husband and wife, because she was also a demi demon. But in the end, we did not get together because of the bloodline. Her demi demon bloodline was very high, almost reaching the perfect demi demon bloodline. Therefore, she was forced to marry into the Yuwen family."
As he spoke up to here, Murong Zhishui's voice turned cold, "Why can the Yuwen family do whatever they want to our branch family? The ones with the higher bloodline have to marry into the Yuwen family, and the pretty ones have to marry into the Yuwen family as well. What kind of rule is this? The worst part is that there are a lot of branches of the Yuwen family, and the women with the higher bloodline will not marry into the branch family. Instead, the branches of the Yuwen family will marry into each other, as long as they are three generations away. They do not care about our branch family at all."
"This is indeed very selfish."
In Ye Chen's opinion, the Yuwen family was like a blood-sucking bug. The essence of the branch family kept flowing into the Yuwen family, which made the Yuwen family prosperous. On the other hand, the branch family would never be able to surpass the Yuwen family, and might even start to weaken.
"Now, you understand why I am doing this, right?" Murong Zhishui looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen looked back at him and said, "You said it yourself. The Yuwen family is the main family of the demi demon family. So, there would definitely be Life and Death Realm warriors in the main family. Are you sure that I alone can fight against the Yuwen family, and even challenge the whole rule of the demi demon family?"
"If it were someone else, I would not be able to, but you can."
"Why?"
"Because you have the leader of the Dragon God Heaven Palace, the Dragon King, behind you. With him as your support, who in the demi demon family would dare to oppress you? Even the demi demon king would not dare to do so. Without the support of the Dragon King and Xuanhou, the situation of the demi demon family might not be as good as it is now. You also know that we demi demons have the bloodline of the Demons inside us after all. So, a lot of Life and Death Realm warriors are hostile to us."
"Is it the Dragon King?"
Ye Chen nodded. Indeed, with the Dragon King as his support, the demi demon family would not do anything to kill him, because it would be the same as turning against the Dragon King. It was not because he was arrogant, but because he had reached the Sea of Souls Realm before the age of twenty-five, and had the power of a top spirit warrior, it would be impossible for the Dragon King to not value him. Although he really wanted to rely on himself, in this world, which martial genius did not have a powerful background? Without a powerful background, people would kill you without waiting for you to grow up. Having a powerful background was also a part of one's power, and it was an unchanging truth.
With that thought in mind, Ye Chen had already made up his mind. In fact, even if the Dragon King did not come, he would not just watch Murong Zhishui get married. If she got married, he would have regrets and flaws in his heart. If he had the power to stop it, why not? Everything had to be fought for by himself, regardless of the result.
"What is your choice?"
Murong Zhishui asked.
Ye Chen said, "Since you do not care about the rules of the demi demons, then why should I? Oh right, does Murong know that you are here?"
"I did not tell her why I am here. I think she would have guessed it for sure. Besides, it is not that I do not care about the rules, but your value is way beyond the rules. With your current achievement, I am afraid that you will become a Life and Death Realm warrior in a couple of years. By then, who would dare to talk behind your back?"
It was true that Murong Zhishui valued Ye Chen's background. But, if Ye Chen was not that powerful himself and did not have enough potential, he would not have come. Breaking the rules of the demi demons was not a joke, and there would be consequences. Right now, he could only place his hope on Ye Chen. But, he believed that if it were anyone else, they would also bet on Ye Chen's potential, since he was so young.
Ye Chen naturally knew that Murong Zhishui was not only looking for Murong Zhishui's happiness, but there must be something else that he did not know about. But, he did not care, since he knew that Murong Zhishui had his own purpose. Anyway, he could not let Murong Zhishui marry Yuwen Ye.
"Chen'Er, who is this?"
Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing walked into the living room.
Ye Chen introduced, "Father, mother, this is the leader of the Murong family, Murong Zhishui. Uncle, these are my parents."
"Haha, brother Ye, sister Shen, is it too rude for me to call you guys like this?" Murong Zhishui was a bit older than Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing. It was only because of his higher cultivation that he looked younger. He did not look down on the two who were only at Early Astral Reaching Realm, since they were Ye Chen's parents, and they might become in-laws in the future. So, no matter what, he had to build a good relationship with them.
Soon, the three got familiar with each other. Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing also vaguely knew what they were here for, so they had a smile on their faces.
"Brother Ye, sister Shen, I would like to borrow Ye Chen for a while. You won't object, right?" He did not go straight to the point. Instead, he revealed a bit about Ye Chen and his daughter before saying that he wanted to borrow Ye Chen.
Indeed, Ye Tianhao hurried to nod and said, "Not just for a while, even three to five years would be fine." This was related to his son's lifelong happiness. If he really could not see his son for three to five years, he would have to hold back his longing.
"Alright, brother Ye is indeed reasonable. Let's not waste any more time. Ye Chen, come back to the Murong family with me! Three months is not that long, but it is not that short either. Even going to the Yuwen family would take a long time. "Murong Zhishui stood up and said.
Ye Chen looked at his parents, "Then, Chen'Er will leave with uncle Murong first."
"Yeah!"
Shen Yuqing nodded and reminded, "Be careful out there."
"Chen'Er knows."
After that, Ye Chen and Murong Zhishui walked out of the living room. Their bodies flashed, flying into the sky.
Shoo! Shoo!
The two turned into two beams of light and disappeared.
Outside the living room, Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing looked at the direction where the two disappeared and let out a breath. Shen Yuqing laughed, "Chen'Er is too mature. I thought he was not interested in girls."
"Hehe, the younger generation will have their own happiness. What is the rush? I heard that he was quite close with a girl called Xu Jing when he was in the Sky Cloud Martial School."
…
The Murong family was located in a huge mountain range in the west of the South Rudra Region, which was two million miles away from the Windy Nation.
In the afternoon of the third day, Ye Chen and Murong Zhishui arrived at the mountain range.
"Our Murong family is not that famous, but the only thing in the South Rudra Region that we do not dare to mess with is the South Rudra Martial School. The other rank 6 martial institutions are not as powerful as our Murong family. Even the royal families of the four empires are slightly weaker than us."
Looking at the center of the mountain range, Murong Zhishui kept flying at a high speed as he introduced the Murong family to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded. It seemed like Murong Zhishui letting Murong enter the Sky Flying Demon Martial School was just a cover so that people would not know that she was a member of the demi demon family.
"Uncle, why do so many people on the continent want to target the demi demon family? Demi demons look no different from humans, and they do not seem to cause any harm."
Ye Chen did not understand. He did not think that the reason why people would target the demi demon family was because they hated the Demons.
Murong Zhishui sighed, "Actually, there is a reason. Our demi demon family is indeed a big threat. The bloodline of the Demons is not that easy to get. But, what can we do? Just because we are demi demons, we have to take away our right to live."
Murong Zhishui still wanted to say something, but they had arrived at the Murong family.
From a distance, the entire Murong Clan appeared to be very mysterious and vast. The buildings were all very ancient, and there were also countless towers. The sky above the Murong Clan was different from the outside world. The color was darker and gloomier, and dark clouds covered the sky.
