Chapter 398 Xuan Shuai (fifth update)
The mountain behind Langya Pavilion.
There are green hills, lush trees, gurgling streams, and a man and a woman are walking leisurely among them.
The man was wearing a mysterious robe and was past middle age. His eyes were bright and clear, his nose was straight, and his brows contained the elegance of a scholar and the fortitude of a general on the battlefield.
Two completely different temperaments blend perfectly in him, forming a unique charm.
The beautiful woman next to the man in Xuanpao looks like she is in her twenties or thirties. She walks lightly, behaves dignifiedly, has black hair, has a beautiful and refined face, and her skin is as good as snow.
But the subtle wrinkles at the corners of the woman's eyes confirm that her actual age may be older.
The two walked side by side and chatted softly. They were quite intimate, but they didn't look like a couple.
This beautiful woman is Ye Taoyuan, who is known as the "unparalleled woman" in the world. She is a third-level Pulse Master and Shen Zhiwei's mother.
As for this man in Xuanpao, he is Ye Xuan, who is famous all over the world and is known as ‘Shuai Xuan’!
Ye Taoyuan said softly: "Actually, for this matter, just let the kid Lingyun come over by himself. You don't have to go there yourself."
"You don't want me, but I want to come and see you."
Ye Xuan looked sideways, his eyes soft.
The two are just cousins.
The old pavilion master had no children and regarded Ye Xuan as his own. When he was a child, Ye Xuan also grew up with Ye Taoyuan.
The relationship between the two is even better than that of biological siblings.
Ye Taoyuan didn't appreciate it and snorted softly and said: "You are less here. If you can let the dignified 'Xuan Shuai' go down the mountain in person, there must be something important."
"The first important thing is, of course, to see you mother and daughter."
After a short pause, Ye Xuan continued: "As for the second thing, my uncle is a little worried."
When mentioning the old pavilion master, Ye Taoyuan didn't look good. He seemed to still be brooding about what happened back then. He said lightly: "What should I worry about? There is a veil among the younger generation in Langya Pavilion. Zhiyuan takes action, Jiange still has luck, and there is no possibility of defeat.”
Ye Xuan could feel Ye Taoyuan's emotional changes and sighed in his heart.
Because of what happened that year, Ye Taoyuan never returned to Jiange.
The father and daughter have never met.
Ye Taoyuan's husband died tragically, her children disappeared, and her family was almost destroyed. It was only natural for her to have resentment in her heart.
This knot is difficult to resolve.
After hearing that the missing Zhiwei had returned, Ye Xuan realized that this might be an opportunity for the father and daughter to reconcile.
Ye Xuandao: "Lingyun has been cultivated to the realm of enlightenment. His combat power is good, but after all, he only practiced in Jiange and has never experienced life and death."
"You also know that it is one thing to compete in martial arts, but it is another thing to fight for life and death. There are too many uncertain factors, and spiritual luck still lacks some experience, and..."
Ye Xuan paused slightly and then said softly: "My uncle told me that there are experts in the palace."
"Huh?"
Ye Taoyuan's expression changed.
She knew her father's temperament, he was free and unrestrained, but she would never say such things randomly.
What kind of cultivation can be called an expert by my father?
Who is this person?
How come I've never heard of it before?
Ye Taoyuan's heart tightened and he asked: "Are you saying that Langya Pavilion may lose this battle with the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"I don't know."
Ye Xuan shook his head and said: "My uncle was just a little worried, so he asked me to take his handwriting and come down the mountain."
"If something unexpected happens, take out his handwriting and take Zhiwei to Jiange. Neither the Holy Emperor nor the Prime Minister can do anything to him, so the matter can only be dropped."
There were some words that Ye Xuan didn't say, but Ye Taoyuan understood them in his heart.
If it really gets to that point, it will have some impact on the reputation of the Sword Sect.
Ye Xuan said tentatively: "Actually, what happened back then was not that my uncle didn't take action, but that he had other hidden agendas. He..."
"Forget it, it's all in the past, don't mention it anymore."
Ye Taoyuan shook his head, as if he didn't want to mention the old things.
Ye Xuan was a little helpless and sighed: "You, after so many years, you still have the same temper." "You still talk about me."
Ye Taoyuan counterattacked: "How many years have passed since the relationship between your father and daughter is still not like that?"
"Why are you talking about me again?"
Ye Xuan feigned anger.
Ye Taoyuan smiled with bright eyes, glanced at Ye Xuan, and said: "However, I heard that after he came back this time, he came to find you. I was afraid that you would be worried, so I wanted to tell you that he was safe."
Mentioning this matter, Ye Xuan said dissatisfiedly: "What's the purpose of reporting peace? She just told me a secret, and then left without even thinking of staying and having a meal with me."
"And my uncle has actually noticed what she said."
Ye Taoyuan smiled and said: "Just be satisfied. What I told you is true, and the report of safety is also true. Otherwise, why would she go to see you in person."
Ye Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and his expression showed a bit of reminiscence, a bit of regret, and a bit of pain, and he murmured softly: "After all, I still can't forgive her mother."
"There was nothing you could do about what happened back then."

Ye Taoyuan sighed.
Ye Xuan shook his head and said: "Because of me, she doesn't trust any man in the world, and she doesn't want to have any contact with him. She just wants to practice martial arts. Now she is twenty-two, and she is still alone. What's the use of becoming famous? ”
"Who said that."
Ye Taoyuan said: "I heard that she was very close to a soldier from the Northern Expeditionary Army."
"Wrong."
Ye Xuan shook his head and said: "I asked her tentatively, but she didn't react at all when I mentioned Song Wu, but..."
Ye Xuan stopped talking.
"What?"
Ye Taoyuan asked.
Ye Xuandao: "This time when she came back from overseas, she was indeed a little different from usual. Sometimes she would be alone in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking."
Ye Taoyuan smiled and said: "That may be a sweetheart. If there is a chance, I will help you ask her."
"Yeah."
Ye Xuandao: "She did mention one person, saying that she was rescued overseas, but I wanted to ask in detail, but she refused to say anything."
"Having said that, Song Wu from the Northern Expedition is really good."
Ye Xuandao said: "I have seen this person. Although he is of humble origin, he has great character, ambition, magnanimity, and a clear sense of grudges. He will definitely become a great person in the future."
"Oh?"
Ye Taoyuan was a little surprised.
Her cousin had a very high vision and spoke directly, which was not very pleasant to listen to.
When she was a child, she was often beaten by her cousin.
It was rare for her to see Ye Xuan speak so highly of a young man.
Ye Taoyuan asked again: "Compared with the general Liu Daojian you brought out in the Northern Expeditionary Army? As far as I know, this Song Wu is now working under Liu Daojian."
Ye Xuan pondered: "Liu Daojian is brave and resourceful, which are his advantages. But he is scheming, suspicious, and capricious, so he should not be reused."
Ye Taoyuan said: "As far as I know, Liu Daojian now has a very high status in the Northern Expeditionary Army, and Wang Xiaobo thinks highly of him."
The two were walking and chatting. At this moment, three people ran out of a courtyard in the distance.
The man in the middle was wearing iron armor, holding one person with his left and right hands, and laughed loudly. The three of them were extremely happy and walked side by side towards the distance.
"The man in the middle seems to be Song Wu."
Ye Taoyuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "The one next to me is Zhiyuan, who is the other one?"
Ye Xuan's ears moved, as if he heard something, and said: "Let's go over there and have a look."
I have written a total of five updates today, 11,000 words, which can be regarded as a small burst. I would like to ask for a monthly ticket, thank you fellow Taoists~
