"Nothing must go wrong with this matter. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if the higher-ups pursue this matter. I'll leave it to you to oversee this matter. You'll have to make frequent trips to East Arrival Cave. As for Mount Calming Sea …" Miao Yi turned to look at the two girls, "If there's anything you need, you can bring them along to learn from them. When you're not around, leave some of the matters in Mount Calming Sea to them to handle. It's about time for them to learn a little more."
He didn't tell them his true intentions. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to return alive from the Sea of Constellations. These two women had been kept in captivity since they were young. Their ability to survive in the cultivation realm was truly worrying.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er were a little embarrassed. They knew they couldn't help Miao Yi much, and they couldn't share his burden.
Yan Xiu looked at the two of them and nodded in agreement.
Miao Yi immediately ordered Yan Xiu to rush over to East Arrival Cave and have a talk with the Cave Master of East Arrival Cave. At the same time, he sent a message to each Cave Master, requesting for their cooperation. South Edict Manor had also sent a reply.
After Qian'Er and Xue'Er had sent out the news from the various branches, the moment Qian'Er and Xue'Er returned, they saw Miao Yi waving the jade archive in his hand as he said to the two of them, "From today onwards, take a look at all the messages sent to and from Mount Calming Sea. Once you have an idea of what to do, send them to me. When the time comes, I will be asking for your opinions on how to deal with them."
"Yes!" The two women responded with slight fear.
The next day, South Edict Manor sent someone over to deliver the ship's blueprint and millions of Gold Crystals. Miao Yi was afraid that something would go wrong, so he made a copy of the blueprint and kept half of the funds for himself. The rest was sent to East Arrival Cave and handed over to Yan Xiu.
After dealing with this matter, Miao Yi said to Qian'Er and Xue'Er, "Come with me."
The two of them followed him into the silent quarters, feeling a little embarrassed. They thought Miao Yi was going to do it with them again. Unexpectedly, Miao Yi turned around and asked, "What do you think of Senior Yao?"
The two of them immediately realized that they were thinking too much. Blushing, they looked at each other and replied, "Master actually has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He's actually quite a good person."
"I could tell that a long time ago." Miao Yi nodded, then asked, "If I let the two of you acknowledge him as your adoptive father, what will you do to him? Are you willing? "
They didn't know why Miao Yi wanted them to acknowledge Yao Ruoxian as their adoptive father. However, they still nodded and said, "We'll listen to Milord's arrangements."
"It's not about listening to my arrangements." Miao Yi waved his hand and said, "You can't force yourself to do something like this. It all depends on your own conscience. If you're willing, then so be it. If you're not, then so be it. I want to hear the truth. "
The two of them were a little confused about his attitude. After looking at each other, they gave a smart answer. "We have no objections. We will listen to your arrangements."
Miao Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Alright then. Then I will help the two of you make the decision."
After explaining the situation, Miao Yi had the two girls prepare a gift first. It wouldn't be good to go empty-handed.
A few days later, when the two of them had finished preparing the gifts, Miao Yi personally led the two girls into the mountains.
As soon as he arrived at Yao Ruoxian's secluded cave and saw him, Miao Yi immediately laughed and said, "Senior Yao. I'm here to tell you the good news. "
Yao Ruoxian, who was twirling his beard and fiddling with the Yao Cores, didn't even raise his head as he scoffed, "You're here to take advantage of me, aren't you?"
Miao Yi walked over to his side and chuckled, "I've already brought the two of them here. I've asked them, and they're willing to acknowledge you as their adoptive father. Don't worry, I didn't force them. It's entirely up to them. The rest is up to you. Of course, I won't force you either. It's entirely up to you whether you're willing or not. If you're not willing, I will immediately bring them back and pretend this never happened. "
"Ah … this …" Yao Ruoxian, who usually yelled and scolded Miao Yi at every turn, was at a loss for what to do. He looked at the two beautiful girls and then looked at his own sloppy appearance. Looking at his own messy self, he didn't know what to say. He was extremely nervous.
Miao Yi looked at him strangely, thinking, 'This can't be, right? Aren't you usually very arrogant? '
However, he could tell that this old man was willing. Miao Yi then gave the two girls a slight nod.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er immediately walked up to him. They knelt on the ground in unison, each holding a gift in their hands as they shouted, "Your daughter greets Father."
The gifts weren't actually anything expensive. It was just a black robe that suited Yao Ruoxian's style, and a pair of shoes. They were all personally made by the two girls.
This was what Miao Yi said. 'This old man is richer than us, so we can't afford to give him an expensive gift. It's fine as long as he shows his sincerity.'
"Ah …" Yao Ruoxian was so excited that his face was flushed red. He was at a loss for what to do. He looked at Miao Yi for help, as if asking him what he should do. At this moment, he seemed to have become an idiot who didn't know anything.
"What are you 'Ah' for?" Miao Yi pointed at the two girls kneeling on the ground. "Say something if you're willing or not!"
"I'm willing, I'm willing." Yao Ruoxian finally squeezed out a few words as he nodded his head vigorously.
Miao Yi sneered. "Are you planning to let the two of them kneel and never get up?"
"Ah!" Yao Ruoxian cried out involuntarily. He hurriedly stepped forward and helped the two of them up by their arms. "Good children, good children. You two good children, quickly get up."
The two girls were a little embarrassed. They held up the gifts in their hands and said, "Father, these are the clothes and shoes we made for you. Please see if they fit."
As soon as they finished speaking, they put the gifts to the side and stepped forward to help Yao Ruoxian take off his dirty robe. Then, they unfolded the newly sewn black robe and helped Yao Ruoxian put it on.
Yao Ruoxian was so excited that his chin was trembling. He allowed the two girls to do as they pleased. Then, he was helped to the stone couch and sat down. The two girls squatted down and helped him take off the dirty shoes on his feet and put on a new pair of shoes.
"Father, please stand up and see if they fit." The two girls helped him up and let him turn around to take a look.
Yao Ruoxian spun around with his arms wide open and nodded his head vigorously. "Yes, yes, yes …"
Miao Yi chimed in from the side, "Senior Yao. Even though these things aren't worth much, they were personally sewn by them, stitch by stitch. It's a small gift, but the meaning behind it is great! Look at those fine and neat needles. They wouldn't be able to make something like this in a normal tailor's shop. They were the ones who personally made them for you. They've been with me for so many years, but even I have never enjoyed such treatment. Take a closer look at those neat needles. Aren't they more beautiful than the transcendent artifacts you refined? "
The two girls looked at him speechlessly. 'Aren't you lying through your teeth? It seems like all your clothes, inside and out, were personally sewn by the two of us.'
Miao Yi secretly gave the two of them a meaningful glance, telling them not to make a sound. He had his own plans.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Yao Ruoxian nodded his head vigorously. He kept pulling at his clothes and nodding his head. Then, he lifted his feet and looked at his shoes, nodding his head.
As he looked at them, tears began to flow from his small eyes. He raised his hand to wipe them away, but couldn't wipe them all. His small eyes were like the mouth of a spring.
Miao Yi and the others were instantly speechless. 'It can't be, right? He's actually moved to tears?'
The three of them couldn't understand Yao Ruoxian's emotional journey. He was a disciple who had suffered great humiliation and was publicly expelled from the sect. He had suffered for a thousand years and suffered so many hardships. He had to endure so many looks of disdain and ridicule. He was unkempt and hid. Who had ever cared about him? Today's warmth had struck the weakest spot in his heart. He actually had two beautiful daughters. He would never be lonely again in this life. His emotions were out of control.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er were a little flustered as well. They didn't know what to do and looked to Miao Yi for help. Yao Ruoxian was now their adoptive father after all. They had been orphans since they were young. Acknowledging him as their father meant a lot to them.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yi let out a dry cough. Taking advantage of the fact that Yao Ruoxian had lost control of his emotions and was in a daze, he said, "Senior Yao. Your two daughters have given you gifts. Shouldn't you at least give them a greeting gift as well? Didn't you obtain a pair of Third Grade Transcendent Halos in the Sea of Constellations? Why don't you give them one each? That would be perfect. "
"Alright, alright." Yao Ruoxian quickly wiped away his tears and shook the storage bangle on his wrist. Two black transcendent halos appeared in his hand, and he was about to give them to the two girls.
Miao Yi's eyes immediately lit up. These were two Third Grade Transcendent Artifacts! Either one of them was worth more than all the ones he had sold before. Qian'Er and Xue'Er's belongings were also his belongings.
He quickly shot a glance at the two girls, hinting for them to quickly accept the gifts and not give Yao Ruoxian a chance to change his mind.
The two girls were a little hesitant. If it were before, they would have let it go. But now, Yao Ruoxian was their adoptive father. Was it appropriate to take advantage of their father's state of mind like this? They looked at Miao Yi with troubled eyes, as though begging him to give up.
Their actions almost made Miao Yi stomp his feet in anger. Yao Ruoxian had always been the one to cheat him of his belongings. Now that he finally had a chance to cheat him back, how could he give up?
What they didn't know was that Yao Ruoxian wasn't an idiot after living for over a thousand years. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lived until now. He had been secretly observing the expressions and actions of the three girls. He just wanted to see if the two girls really thought of him as their father.
Now that he had verified their intentions, he realized that he hadn't misjudged them. He couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh maniacally. After living for over a thousand years, there was finally someone who truly cared for him and cared for him. It could be said that he hadn't lived in vain and was truly comforted.
Miao Yi and the others stared at him in astonishment. They didn't know what was wrong with him.
Yao Ruoxian wiped away his tears, then pointed at Miao Yi and said to the two girls, "My dear daughters, this brat isn't a good person. In the Sea of Constellations, he's known for swindling and killing without batting an eyelid. Don't listen to him trying to drive a wedge between us."
He tapped the magic rings in his hand. "Although these two items are worth some money, they are not suitable for the two of you. Don't worry, father will definitely refine a set of good magic treasures for the two of you as a gift. Father will definitely not treat the two of you unfairly."
Miao Yi sucked in a breath of cold air as he realized what was going on. 'It turns out that this old ghost is putting on an act. He's too damn good at acting. He's already so old, yet he can cry at the drop of a hat. Even I fell for it.'
He watched helplessly as Yao Ruoxian put away the two Third Grade Transcendent Artifacts.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er looked at Miao Yi meekly, as though they were afraid that Miao Yi would blame them. Yao Ruoxian, who was watching from the sidelines, sneered, "Why should we be afraid of him? With me here, let's see if he dares to make things difficult for the two of you! "
After that, Miao Yi became an outsider. He watched from the side as the three of them showed their affection for each other.
After staying there for over four hours, Miao Yi finally brought the two girls back.
Once they were far away from Yao Ruoxian's cave, Qian'Er and Xue'Er cautiously said, "Milord …"
