Shen Mengxi was very curious about how Ye Zhen and the others cultivated, but she also knew that cultivation was not something that everyone could do. After asking a few questions, she no longer mentioned it. She only hoped that the demon beasts would leave the human world quickly and return peace to China.
After sitting for a while, Shen Mengxi got up and left. With her here, Ye Zhen and Zhao Yang could not talk about personal matters.
Zhao Yang and Ye Zhen got up and sent Shen Mengxi away, leaving only the two of them in the room.
"Did you just come from your father's place?" Zhao Yang asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile and set up a barrier around their room so that their voices would not be heard outside.
Zhao Yang glanced outside and frowned. "I wanted to move out several times, but …"
"If you can't move out, you can live here." Ye Zhen said, "It doesn't matter where you live now."
"Your father, he … he has been in a bad mood since he made those cannons and guns. Every time he comes back, he stays in his study for a long time. I ask him but he doesn't say anything. I am very worried about him." Zhao Yang whispered to Ye Zhen. This matter had been pressing on her heart for a long time, but she could not tell anyone else.
When Ye Zhen tested the guns last time, she saw that Ye Yiqing did not like these cannons and guns, but he developed them for survival. If he were to use these guns on the battlefield in the future, it would be absolutely impossible.
"Although cannons and guns can deal with demon beasts, they can also gnaw at people's hearts." Ye Zhen whispered, "Some people have no ambition. It's not that they don't want to conquer the whole world, but they know that they don't have the ability. Once the opportunity is placed in front of them, the world becomes at their fingertips, then their ambition will be infinitely magnified …"
Zhao Yang was shocked and stood up abruptly. "Your father has such great ambition?"
Ye Rou raised her eyes to look at Zhao Yang. Seeing the worry on her face, she burst out laughing. "You still don't understand my father. If he had such ambition, would he have waited so many years to create cannons and guns? As early as when the Ye family was beheaded, he made them and killed Mo Rongzhan. "
"You scared me to death." Zhao Yang glared at Ye Zhen and chuckled. "I really panicked."
"My father has no ambition, but it doesn't mean that others don't." Ye Zhen said faintly, "That's why my father was worried and was careful not to draw an illustration."
Zhao Yang frowned, "I understand what you mean, but how can I help your father? This can't go on. "
Ye Zhen looked at Zhao Yang and said, "I discussed it with my father. I want to send you and the child back to the Ning Kingdom first. Now that Ming Yu is the Heavenly Princess of the Ning Kingdom, she will protect you."
"Back … to Jingdu?" Zhao Yang's eyes brightened. In the beginning, she left Jingdu after marrying Ye Yiqing because she didn't want to hear any gossip, but Jingdu was her home after all. How could she not miss it?
If they could return to the capital, that would naturally be the best. It would also allow Ye Yiqing and Ye Chunnan to reunite. He definitely wanted the whole family to be together.
Zhao Yang immediately thought of Qi Yu. "But, can we leave?"
"With me here, it is naturally not difficult to send you back to the capital." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "However, Qi Yu will have to think about how to explain it."
"If we want to leave, he can't force us to stay." Zhao Yang said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen said, "Of course he can't, but try not to shed all pretense of cordiality."
Zhao Yang couldn't help but worry. If they really wanted to leave the country, she was afraid that Qi Yu would not agree. Once he opened his mouth, he might even put them under house arrest.
"In two days, I'm afraid someone will take you to the Ye residence. There is no need to tell Qi Yu." Ye Zhen said.
"Will those demon beasts appear again?" Zhao Yang asked.
"It's hard to say, but they won't dare in a short time." Ye Zhen said. The capture of the flood dragon could at least subdue them for a while.
Zhao Yang nodded gently, "I'll listen to your arrangements."
Ye Zhen stood up, "Then I'll go first. You should get ready first. Don't mention this to Father when he comes back today. He knows what to do. There are some things that should not be discussed in the palace."
"I know." Zhao Yang immediately understood what Ye Zhen meant.
When Ye Zhen walked out of the room, she saw two young women dressed as palace maids sweeping the floor outside the house, looking a little flustered.
"Not all the servants in the family have moved to the palace, so the emperor sent a few palace maids to serve them." Zhao Yang whispered.
"The emperor is really considerate." Ye Zhen said with a smile, and after signaling to Zhao Yang, she left the new city.
The two palace maids looked at each other in bewilderment. They were originally able to hear the voices inside, but for some reason, they suddenly couldn't hear anything.
… …
… …
Ye Zhen returned to the Northern Border City. Because the flood dragon was captured, the city was guarded by divine soldiers. Almost all the monsters in the island dared not go out. Even if they went out to hunt for food, they only dared to catch some beasts and bring them back.
"Little Yao, you came back just in time. The little white dragon doesn't seem to be quite right." White Tiger finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ye Zhen return.
"What's wrong with her?" Ye Zhen was shocked and hurried to find her.
As soon as she walked to the door, she heard her sobbing.
Ma Niao never cries.
Ye Zhen hurriedly walked in. "What's wrong?"
"Ah Zhen, you're back. She … she wants to see Ming Xi." Ye Muxin said helplessly. No matter how she persuaded her, it was useless. The little girl's crying was heartbreaking.
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Zhen asked.
"Madam, I … I don't have my spiritual power and cultivation. I want to see Ming Xi." Shang'er said sadly. She had already woken up for a few days. At first, she thought that her injuries were too severe, so she couldn't recover her spiritual energy. However, after so many days had passed, she still didn't have a trace of spiritual energy. Ming Xi also didn't see her, so she couldn't help but panic.
Ye Zhen listened to her words, chuckled, and let Ye Muxin and the others go first.
"Little Yao, I didn't have time to explain to you before. Listen to me first. Your spiritual power and cultivation are now sealed, otherwise you won't wake up. As long as you find the White Dragon King and let him unlock the seal he left on you ten thousand years ago, you can recover." Ye Zhen told Little Yao everything after she was in a coma. "… Ming Xi is in seclusion. When he comes out, he will naturally see him."
"You mean … Grandpa Black Dragon locked me up?" Little Yao's eyes widened, unable to believe what Ye Zhen said.
Ye Zhen said, "We don't know the past grievances. When we find your father, maybe we will understand."
"I didn't expect so many things to happen after I was in a coma." Little Yao pouted. "When will Ming Xi come out?"
"This … I want to know too." Ye Zhen smiled bitterly.
