"Big Brother, what's wrong?"
Perhaps Ye Ling 'er felt that something was wrong, so she was afraid that her husband had done something wrong and angered Ye Xuan.
"Haha!"
Ye Xuan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm just happy for you. You've married such an outstanding husband and have such a happy family."
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Ye Ling 'er let out a sigh of relief. Then she hugged Tuoba Yuntian's arm and smiled happily at Ye Xuan. "Big Brother, Yuntian has been very good to me all these years. Now that you're back, you must stay here. In a few days, we'll settle the score with the Cultivation Alliance."
Following Ye Ling 'er's words, Tuoba Yuntian smiled and nodded. "Big Brother, Ling' er has been thinking about you all these years. You're also the person I've always admired. I still have many questions about cultivation that I'd like to ask you."
Seeing Ye Ling 'er's happy expression, Ye Xuan slowly nodded and smiled. "If that's the case, then I'll stay here for a few days."
…
A waning moon hung in the sky, and the stars in the sky flickered. The bright white moonlight sprinkled down, and it illuminated the courtyard to the point that it was spotless.
A gust of wind blew over, causing Ye Xuan's hair to flutter in the wind. However, the aura around his body slightly fluctuated. It was obvious that his current mood wasn't calm.
"Little Sister, what do you want me to do?"
Ye Xuan sighed. A trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes before it disappeared without a trace.
Today, Ye Xuan came to the Tuoba family to see his only family in the mortal world. After that, he would leave. However, when he saw Tuoba Yuntian, he changed his mind and decided to stay.
This was because Ye Xuan could see through Tuoba Yuntian's cultivation. Even though Tuoba Yuntian tried his best to hide it, how could he hide it from the eyes of an All-Heaven Xuan Immortal?
Tuoba Yuntian was not a Body Integration Stage cultivator. He was a true Immortal. He was a Heavenly Immortal and was the second person to become an Immortal in the Human World.
Ye Xuan was very sure that he didn't see wrongly, nor would he see wrongly.
However, Ye Xuan did not expose this matter in front of him. After all, he was his sister's husband.
A person who had become an immortal staying in the mortal world and hiding his cultivation was a very strange thing. This made Ye Xuan think of the things that had happened in the past five hundred years.
Ye Xuan already had a vague conjecture, but this conjecture was too cruel. If this conjecture was true, when his little sister found out the truth, it might destroy her life of happiness!
Ye Xuan's expression was calm. Celestial light swirled around him. He looked up at the waning moon in the sky and sighed. He just stood there quietly in the courtyard. No one knew what he was thinking.
…
Sleepless under the moon, his heart was heavy.
Ye Ling 'er was in a sweet dream. She did not know that her husband was no longer beside her bed. He was standing alone in the courtyard.
"He obviously went to the Earth Immortal Realm. Why did he come back? Why?"
Tuoba Yuntian's expression was gloomy. He was muttering to himself in the courtyard. When he opened and closed his eyes, there was a flash of fear. It was obvious that he was not calm.
"Did he … discover me?"
Tuoba Yuntian paced back and forth in the courtyard. Ye Xuan's face appeared in his mind from time to time.
Today, Ye Xuan's arrival was immediately known to him. When he saw Ye Xuan's real body, his heart was in turmoil. Fortunately, he was very shrewd and did not show any strange expression.
"Although I have successfully passed the tribulation and become an Immortal, I can't see through his cultivation at all. I'm afraid Ye Xuan has already stepped into the Profound Immortal Realm. He is an entire realm higher than me," Tuoba Yuntian said gloomily. His expression was even more uncertain.
However, he did not know that his every move was completely seen by Ye Xuan. This also made Ye Xuan sigh. He knew that his guess was true.
…
The next morning, the sun rose.
Ye Ling 'er's family of three came to visit Ye Xuan. Amidst Ye Ling' er's laughter, the family had a very pleasant breakfast. However, Ye Xuan had already abstained from eating for many years. He simply tasted a few mouthfuls of the food that Ye Ling 'er personally made and did not touch it again.
"Big Brother, I am busy with family matters. I will go and deal with them first. After that, I will hold a welcoming dinner for you," Tuoba Yuntian said apologetically.
"It's fine. A Worthy Younger Brother, feel free to do what you need to do," Ye Xuan said calmly.
"Ling 'er, you haven't reunited with your Big Brother for many years. Don't neglect your Big Brother." Before he left, Tuoba Yuntian earnestly instructed Ye Ling' er, and then he left the dining table.
"Uncle, Mother has always mentioned you in these past few years. She said that your cultivation is invincible in the world. Is that true?"
Tuoba Nianxuan spoke out curiously. Obviously, since he was young, he'd always heard his mother talk about Ye Xuan's strength. This caused him to be extremely curious about exactly what cultivation this mysterious uncle of his possessed.
"Look at that day!"
Ye Xuan smiled warmly. When his palm and fingers swept through the sky, the winds and clouds in the boundless sky changed. A myriad of bolts of lightning crisscrossed together while a myriad of rays of light bloomed in the sky. This miraculous scene caused Tuoba Nianxuan to be stunned speechless.
When this phenomenon appeared, not only was Tuoba Nianxuan shocked, but even Tuoba Yuntian, who had just arrived in the outside world, turned pale. He clenched his fists tightly and shot away in a streak of light.
Ye Xuan's pair of eyes pierced through the void. Tuoba Yuntian's every move was under his surveillance. He'd revealed this Celestial Art in hopes that Tuoba Yuntian would realize his mistake and mend his ways.
In front of Ye Xuan, Ye Ling 'er seemed to have turned into a young girl of the past. She looked at Ye Xuan with eyes filled with worship. "Big Brother, are … are you an Immortal now?"
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan didn't answer his little sister's question. Instead, he took a deep look at his little sister and said in a deep voice, "Little Sister, go and bring the wooden puppet I gave you on your wedding day."
"Ah?"
"O-Okay."
Ye Ling 'er hurriedly went into the house. When she returned, there was a wooden box in her hand. This was also the wedding gift Ye Xuan gave her on her wedding day.
When Ye Xuan opened the wooden box, two wooden puppets appeared. When he held the wooden puppets in his hand, a light of understanding flashed across his eyes.
Back then, before he left the human world, these two puppets contained two strands of supreme power, all for the sake of protecting Ye Ling 'er and his mother.
But now, the wooden puppets in his hand were only two pieces of rotten wood. The two supreme powers contained in them were long gone.
"Big Brother, this wooden puppet is a gift you gave me. Other than my husband and I, I've never shown it to anyone else," Ye Ling 'er said softly.
"Okay, put it away."
Ye Xuan put the wooden puppets back into the wooden box. A cold light flashed across his eyes. He'd finally confirmed one last thing. Tuoba Yuntian could become an Immortal in the mortal world in less than five hundred years because he'd absorbed and refined the two supreme powers in the wooden puppets.
One had to know that when he'd made these two wooden puppets, he'd been at the Great Vehicle Stage. His two supreme powers contained unimaginable power.
Tuoba Yuntian had secretly refined these two supreme powers behind Ye Ling 'er's back. Coupled with the recovery of the world's spirit qi, it wasn't strange that he'd become an Immortal in five hundred years.
