Gao, I'm a notary. You wouldn't renege on your debt, would you"He is very displeased with Gao Haisheng right now. This guy just made him prepare for his father's funeral one after another, and then sa...Huatian Heaven Palace, where once resided the Divine Emperor Su Fei, was now a picture of tranquility. Su Fei sat nestled beside Ye Tian, her arms gently caressing her prominent belly, a radiant smile illuminating her face as happiness radiated from within.
After returning to Earth, he rushed to find Ye Tian first. As the saying goes, "Love always finds a way." Under the matchmaking of Ye Bufan and others, the two finally got married.
However, the wedding was very simple and took place on a small scale. It wasn't even announced to Xiangxi Zhuyou's family.
This is one of two conditions Ye Tian proposed: first, the wedding should be simple, and second, she must not return to her family home before giving birth to a child.
Even Ye Bufan was powerless against this. As the core disciple of the Zhuyu Family, a clan in Xiangxi that had been passed down for thousands of years, some of his views were deeply ingrained and simply couldn't be changed.
Among the three greatest acts of unfilial piety, having no descendants is the most serious.
Sophie's affection had been clear to Ye Tian for all these years, and he was deeply moved. The reason he chose to ignore it was his worry that, as a former corpse demon, he was incapable of intimate relations with women, let alone carrying on the lineage of the Zhu family.
Although everything had changed the moment he achieved his Asura Form, he still lacked the courage to face it.
Every person has their own weakness. Ye Tian has always been ruthless and taciturn, able to disregard life and death, but he never dared to touch the weaknesses in his heart.
Now, under the matchmaking of Ye Bufan and others, although he has accepted this feeling, he dares not return to Xiangxi Zhu's family before continuing the incense. He feels ashamed to face his ancestors.
It was precisely this mindset that led him to propose the two conditions earlier.
Luckily, Sophie didn't mind these things. She didn't understand Chinese traditional thought, but it didn't affect her. As long as she could be with the man she loved, everything else didn't matter.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed. Now she is six months pregnant, with her due date just around the corner.
"Little Tian, Ye Yixian said I'm carrying twins, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Sophie stroked her belly, a look of overwhelming maternal love on her delicate features.
"Of course it's true, how could big brother be wrong!"
Compared to a year ago, Ye Tian had undergone a tremendous change. He was no longer the aloof and unapproachable person he used to be.
Having a wife, and soon to have children of my own, has melted away much of the coldness within me.
According to Ye Bufan's speculation, Sophie was carrying twins, a boy and a girl, and was about to give birth.
However, unlike ordinary people, Ye Tian did not choose to go to the hospital, but chose to return to Xiangxi with his wife.
He once was the eldest grandson of Zhu Youjian, the heir to the family. According to ancestral rules, his child was born in the ancestral hall.
He used to think he wasn't a normal human, so he gave up that identity.
And now that she is about to have a child, a normal human one who will inherit the Zhu Youjia legacy, this rule naturally cannot be abolished.
"Come on, let's go back to Zhuyu's place now."
Ye Tian took Su Fei away from the Heavenly Palace and headed to Xiangxi. As for the long journey, it was nothing to a powerful being of his level. Thousands of miles apart were just a blink of an eye.
It's been a year since their marriage, and now Sophie is finally going to meet her husband's family. She feels a mix of nervousness and excitement.
Zhu Youjia, after experiencing two major upheavals, has now firmly established himself as the head of the Xiangxi First Family. Together with the Guiwang lineage, they have become the two most powerful forces.
At this moment, the council chamber of the Yu Family was packed with people, each with a grim expression, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere.
The head of the household, Yu Guangji, sat in the main seat. His head was completely white, and his face looked much older than before.
Although the spiritual energy on Earth is now countless times more abundant than before, his cultivation level remains at the Heavenly Rank and there hasn't been much progress.
It's no wonder, being the head of a family is not easy. For so many years, he has been diligently busy with family affairs, leaving little time for personal cultivation.
Adding to the hardship, his son and daughter-in-law also died young, and now his only grandson is facing this situation. He's deeply heartbroken and looks much older than he really is.
In contrast, the elderly men seated in the front row were full of vitality, their faces flushed with health and radiating an air of power.
As a family that has been passed down for thousands of years, the Zhu You family is flourishing with many descendants. In addition to the main family line, there are also three branch families, all of whom are direct descendants of the Zhu You family.
The three elderly men sitting together were the heads of the three main side courtyards, Zhu Youguangyuan, Zhu Youguangsheng, and Zhu Youguangdu.
When Zhu Yu Guang Ji inherited the position of head of the family, they were both Earth rank powerhouses. In terms of talent and strength, they were inferior. However, over the years, with the revival of spiritual energy, they have dedicated themselves to cultivation, making their strength advance by leaps and bounds.
Among them, Zhu Youyuan, with his unrivaled strength, has already reached the peak of Tianjie.
Many people are greedy and insatiable, their strength grows little, but their desires grow much faster.
Today, the three arrived with a single purpose: to force Zhu Youguangji to abdicate and hand over the position of head of the family to Zhu Youguangan.
Behind the three men were dozens of powerful fighters, all core disciples of the three major branches. Among them, Zhu Youxian, the son of Zhu Yuan, was the strongest, already at the peak of the Earth Rank, and one of the most outstanding among the next generation of the Zhu family.
Zhu Yugeng wore a smug expression, completely unapologetic, his tone even carrying a hint of arrogance.
"Big brother, the three of us are here today for one thing only: to ask you to abdicate and hand over the position of head of the family to your second brother, Guangyuan."
As soon as he said that, Zhu Youguang's disciples behind him changed their expressions dramatically. They had already guessed that these people were not good, but they didn't expect them to be so direct when they spoke.
Normally, Zhu Youguangji shouldn't be less than a hundred years old. The Zhu Youjia family has always been focused on medicine. Reaching the Heavenly Rank at this strength, a hundred-year-old age is considered prime time and he hasn't even reached retirement age.
Therefore, at this time, proposing that the head of the family step down is to force a palace coup, which is coercion.
Zhu Youfei instantly flew into a rage, taking a step forward: "Grandfather Three, what are you saying"
"Yu Guangsheng let out a cold smile. 'Don't I make myself clear The position of head of the family should go to the most capable person. Big brother, you're no longer fit to be the head of the family, and it's time for you to step down and make way for someone else.'"
"You farted!"
After confirming that the other party was forcing her grandfather to abdicate, You Fei directly swore.
"Of the four elders, my grandfather has the lowest cultivation, but think about it, what could be the reason for this"
When Grandpa took over as the head of the family, he was the first genius in the clan, the strongest one. Why is he not as good as you all now
Is it not for the family that I have worked tirelessly, overexerted myself Without my grandfather's contributions, could the family have prospered so much, could you three have achieved such strength
What has our grandfather sacrificed for the family How much have we contributed My father, my mother, they died fighting for the family!
My brother, being the family's genius, was secretly targeted by the Shangguan family!
"Now, I wish you are all stronger and your strength has improved. You've come around to try and force my grandfather to abdicate Where is your conscience Has it been eaten by dogs"bout anything else, he directly dispersed his divine sense, covering all the residences in Tian Luo Prefecture. The result was still the same, they were all empty, with only the wretched old man alone...
