Marriage? What a joke!
Ye Zhen had guessed several possibilities. She knew that the original owner of the body must have been taken back to be used, but she never thought that she would replace Ye Mulan in the marriage. What kind of place was Tianhao City? Ye Mulan needed the Ye family's daughter to be conferred the title of Ye Family's first wife. Thinking about it, there must be no benefits. Otherwise, why did Ye Mulan not want to go?
She must not be sent to get married. Otherwise, how could she find Ming Xi? What should she do? She had to think of a way.
"I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?" The girl who just spoke raised her voice, displeased with Ye Zhen's indifference.
"What did you say to me?" Ye Zhen frowned and raised her head. She really didn't hear anyone talking just now. She was just thinking about how to get out of here and find Ming Xi.
The girl who spoke didn't look very old, but because the age calculation in the human world was not the same, Ye Zhen couldn't tell how old she was. She seemed to be about the same age as Ye Mulan.
"Sister Lan, this third sister is so arrogant." The girl looked at Ye Zhen indifferently.
Ye Mulan smiled. "Baoyi, third sister just came back. She has lived in the mountains since she was a child. She is shy. Don't blame her."
"How can I blame third sister? She is the daughter of the main family. It's just that the second prince and the red prince are here. She is too rude." The girl was called Ye Baoyi, a girl from a branch of the Ye family. Because she attended the family school and liked to curry favor with Ye Mulan, she often came to the main family. Although her cultivation was not as good as Ye Mulan's, she was already the best among her peers in the branch, so Ye Mulan was willing to associate with her.
However, Ye Baoyi was now jealous of Ye Zhen. She worked so hard to reach the initial realm, thinking that she could get the attention of the head of the family and make an exception to let her live in the main family. In the end, she didn't wait for anything. Ye Zhen, whose cultivation was inferior to hers and didn't even have a Dantian Qi Sea, moved in.
Even if she was the daughter of the first wife, her parents died at birth and she didn't even have a spiritual root. Why should she live in the main family?
"She is your second uncle's daughter?" Hong Feiyang looked at Ye Zhen. "Isn't that Ye Quan's sister?"
At the mention of Ye Quan, Ye Zhen saw a trace of contempt on Ye Baoyi's face.
"Red Prince, she is second brother's sister. However, it seems like second brother is still in the family school and hasn't returned yet." Ye Mulan smiled and said to Ye Zhen, "If second brother comes back today, you can see him."
Ye Baoyi chuckled. "It's been a few days. Ye Quan hasn't mastered the Fire Manipulation Technique yet. I'm afraid he won't be back so soon."
"Third sister, don't worry. Second brother will be back soon." Ye Mulan took Ye Zhen's arm. In the eyes of others, she was a sister who took good care of her younger sister.
"I'm not worried." Ye Zhen said lightly, "I won't hinder you anymore."
Ye Baoyi stopped her, "Third sister, we are admiring the phoenix that the second prince tamed. You used to live in the mountains, so you probably didn't have the chance to see a spirit beast. You should thank the second prince for being able to see a third rank spirit beast."
What Luan! Ye Zhen was not interested at all.
"What kind of spirit root does Third Miss Ye have?" Hong Feiyang asked curiously. In the past, Ye Shiqing's reputation was resounding. He was almost the most talented person in the Western Continent. If he hadn't been plotted against during the competition with the holy sects, he wouldn't have died so young. Speaking of which, Ye Shiqing and his wife were both martial artists with profound cultivation. There was no reason for a pair of children to not have spirit roots.
"I don't know." Ye Zhen shook her head gently. She didn't understand what they were talking about.
Ye Baoyi couldn't help but chuckle. "Then what do you know?"
"What do you think I should know?" Ye Zhen looked up at her, her voice cold.
Thinking that she was going to replace Ye Mulan in the marriage, Ye Zhen couldn't care about anything else. How could she care about pretending to be weak and wronged?
"Don't you know what a spirit root is?" Ye Baoyi asked in surprise.
Ye Zhen's eyes flashed with impatience. Of course, she could hear that Ye Baoyi wanted to step on her in front of the second prince and Hong Feiyang. What the hell was a spirit root? She really didn't know. What she wanted now was to know what the Ye family wanted her to do.
"Baoyi, Third Sister has no teacher in the mountains, only her wet nurse. It's normal that she doesn't know anything. In two days, she will go to the family school and learn everything." Ye Mulan gently helped Ye Zhen out of the predicament.
Ye Baoyi pursed her lips. "Sister Lan, I've heard that Third Sister doesn't seem to have a spirit root since she was a child."
The second prince didn't seem to hear their words. He just looked at Ye Mulan. "Lan 'er, don't you want to see the Luan? Don't pay attention to unimportant things. "
"Okay, Third Sister, let's go together." Ye Mulan said to Ye Zhen with a smile.
Ye Baoyi secretly stamped her feet. She didn't understand why Ye Mulan was so good to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen wanted to know what was going on with the marriage. After thinking about it, she couldn't find anyone else to ask except Ye Mulan.
"Second Prince, quickly release the Luan," Hong Feiyang said with a smile. "Lan 'er must have been looking forward to it for a long time."
"This Luan hasn't been completely tamed yet, and it hasn't recognized its master. Be careful," the second prince said, but his eyes were on Ye Mulan.
Ye Zhen happened to look up at Ye Mulan and saw her shyly look back at the second prince.
It turned out that Ye Mulan liked the second prince. No wonder she wanted to find someone to replace her in the marriage.
"Okay." Ye Mulan nodded with a smile.
The second prince looked at her and smiled. He took out a ring from his pocket and cast a spell on it. A crisp chirp resounded through the sky. Then, a bird with colorful patterns on its body and a long tail soared into the sky. It was shaped like a yak, and its voice gave people a sense of tranquility.
"Wow, it's so beautiful." Ye Baoyi sighed softly.
Ye Zhen looked at the flying Luan indifferently. It looked beautiful, but it couldn't be compared to her Fire Phoenix.
"Second Prince, I heard that Luan is very rare. Its appearance can herald peace in the world." Ye Mulan was immediately moved when she saw the Luan. If she could have such a spiritual beast, it would be a great honor.
"I found it with great difficulty," the second prince said with a smile. He lowered his eyes to look at Ye Mulan. "You're about to reach marriageable age. This Luan will be a gift for you."
Ye Mulan's eyes lit up. "Second Prince, are you serious?"
"The Luan is still in my array and can't fly out. Quickly tame it and let it recognize you as its master," the second prince said with a smile.
"Giving Lan 'er a Luan? Second Prince, you're really generous," Hong Feiyang said with a smile. His tone was a little sour. It was obvious that he liked Ye Mulan.
Ye Baoyi looked at the Luan in the sky with envy and exclaimed, "Ah, it's flying over."
