Chapter 610 Visiting Xue Clan II

“Grandma! Mother!” Xue Xueyan ran to the two women as Bing Luo and Yi Qingcheng walked out, and she immediately hugged them in turn. “Hehehe, I missed you two so much! I- Ouch!”

“You’re such a naughty girl, you know?” Bing Luo spoke to her daughter in an angry tone, and she pinched her cheeks quite hard, causing them to turn red. “Didn’t you think about how we would feel when we found out you ran away secretly? You didn’t leave us any messages, causing us great worry, and we have been searching for you for several days. Although your cultivation isn’t bad, you’re still too weak to go to that forest alone, leading me to believe that one of those powerful beasts has already preyed on you. Fortunately, your aunt told us that you managed to survive, or else I would have ended my life to accompany you in the afterlife.”

‘Ugh! My mother can’t stop babbling when she’s angry.’ Xue Xueyan inwardly grumbled as she tried to pull her mother’s hands away. “Ouch! Mother! Please let go of my cheeks, or they will stretch! Moreover, your worry is too much because those beasts won’t be able to see me with the artifact that my grandmother gave me, and my grandfather has shown me the safest route, so I can get through the haunted forest without any trouble.”

Bing Luo let out a heavy sigh before pulling back both of her hands, but she immediately hugged Xue Xueyan so tightly, and tears involuntary dripped from both eyes. “I was terrified of the worst: losing you. However, I’m relieved that you’re still alive, and I could embrace you again.”

“I’m sorry, I made you worry about me, Mother.” Xue Xueyan said it guiltily, as she knew exactly how dear Bing Luo was to her. “I didn’t want to marry Hua Gaoyun, but my father was never willing to understand my feelings. That’s why I had to flee from our clan to avoid a forced marriage to that old fart. Moreover, my situation is not bad, and I am happy living in that sect, where I found my right man.”

Xue Xueyan then released Bing Luo from her arms and wiped her tears, but a hard slap suddenly landed on her buttocks, making her jump in surprise before rubbing them. “Grandma! You ruined my reunion with my mother!”

“Reunion, your ass!” Instead, Yi Qingcheng angrily shouted with narrowed eyes, causing Xue Xueyan to shiver, and she immediately pulled her ears. “Do you need to reunite with us if you don’t run away? I was trying to persuade your grandfather to stop your father from forcing you to marry Hua Gaoyun, but you had disappeared without a word! Fortunately, you acted wisely and brought the artifact I gave you, preventing those beasts from eating you alive!

“Ouch! Grandma, please stop it.” Xue Xueyan said it with a pitiful face and puppy eyes. “I’m back alive now, so you don’t need to keep scolding me like this. Besides, I brought you an outstanding grandson-in-law, so you should be happy with that, right?”

Chen Li and the others, who saw them like that, couldn’t help but smile. They could clearly see that Bing Luo and Yi Qingcheng cared so much about Xue Xueyan, so they behaved that way towards her.

Yi Qingcheng let go of her granddaughter’s ears before turning to Chen Li and the others, but she raised her eyebrows momentarily once she saw Xiao Shijian. ‘Sigh. This kid is truly terrifying, and there are too many powerful cultivators on his side. This little girl looks calmer and more playful compared to Xiao Hei, who we met a few days ago, but I’m sure she is much stronger than her.’

“Why are you looking at me like that, little girl?” Xiao Shijian, with a playful smile, asked Yi Qingcheng, leaving her and Bing Luo dumbfounded.

However, Xue Xueyan immediately told them. “Grandma! Mother! Big Sis Shijian is my husband’s old friend, but don’t mistakenly believe she is still ten years old. In fact, her current body is intended to seal her powers, and she is much more mature than your ages combined, but I have never seen her true form.”

“I know.” Bing Luo answered with a nod. “A few days ago, we met Senior Xiao Hei at Qingshui Restaurant, and Senior Shijian should be the same as her.”

“Big Shijian is the oldest among them; Big Sis Hei and Big Sis Meiyi are the second oldest.” Xue Xueyan then asked them. “Where is my grandfather?”

“Your grandfather is still in his cave, so you can go there to see him, but he will punish you for running away without a word.” Xue Xueyan shuddered at her grandmother’s words, but she still hurried off to look for her grandfather, and Yi Qingcheng invited their guests to sit down before speaking to Chen Li. “Honestly, I still feel strange about your relationship with my granddaughter, especially since you have so many wives, but I’ve heard quite a bit about you from Mayumi Keiko and Tang Wang. However, I can see that Xueyan has completely fallen for you, so I will entrust her to you, and I hope you will continue to love and protect her.”

Even though he had regained quite a lot of his past memories, Chen Li had not changed completely, and he respectfully replied to Yi Qingcheng. “Grandma, Xueyan is now my wife, so I will always love and protect her. Even though I have many wives, I will always treat them fairly and equally, so you don’t need to worry about her.”

“That’s good.” Yi Qingcheng suddenly stretched her hand forward after Chen Li sent a few bottles her way, and she immediately grabbed and opened one of them, shocking her and Bing Luo. “Peak-grade pills!”

“Are you the one who concocted these pills?” Bing Luo asked Chen Li. “I heard from your two wives that you are an alchemist, and you should be a grandmaster alchemist by now, right?”

Chen Li nodded to her. “You are right, mother-in-law. I am indeed a grandmaster alchemist, and I personally concoct those pills. They are basic pills, but their effects are much better compared to the basic pills available in this realm, which will strengthen your body even more. Since I am the son-in-law of this clan, I wanted to give them to all of you as a gift to our relationship.”

“Thank you; I will accept these pills.” Yi Qingcheng answered while storing the bottles of pills in her storage ring.

“Hey, trouble’s coming.” Xiao Shijian suddenly informed him.

Chen Li nodded in understanding as he spoke to the two women. “It seems I have to resolve some of the issues plaguing my relationship with Xueyan, or else they will continue to bother us.”

After hearing that, Yi Qingcheng and Bing Luo raised their eyebrows, but they suddenly saw two men walking over in a hurry. Xue Feng, who entered first, sharply glared at Chen Li.

Even Xuanyuan Jingtian, who was walking behind Xue Feng, looked at him with hostility in his eyes, especially since he also had a good relationship with Hua Gaoyun, and Chen Li snatched Xue Xueyan from him.

“Feng’er.”

“Husband.”

Yi Qingcheng and Bing Luo called out to Xue Feng to stop him, but he had already released his aura and killing intent before attacking Chen Li directly. Xuanyuan Jingtian also immediately moved to help his friend.

“Ignorant people.” Naturally, Xiao Shijian would not allow them to attack Chen Li, so she waved her small hand, sending them slamming into the wall opposite them.

*Bam… Bam…*

After they fell to the floor, the two men looked at Xiao Shijian in shock, especially since their cultivation was already at the sovereign level, but she was able to stop and blow them away so easily. However, their expressions became even more shocked after they couldn’t feel her presence, even though she was right before their eyes.

Before they could react, Chen Li had already used his void prison to confine Xue Feng, rendering him unable to move. ‘What the hell is this? His cultivation is only at Earth Realm, but he can confine me like this.’

Besides, Chen Li also used his void element to chain Xuanyuan Jingtian’s hands and feet to the wall, and he immediately tried to free himself from it. ‘Shit! What kind of technique is this? Why can’t I destroy these things with my current cultivation?’

After he lowered Xiao Shijian from his shoulders, Chen Li then walked towards Xuanyuan Jingtian as he transformed into his humanoid dragon form.

Not only were Xue Feng and Xuanyuan Jingtian shocked to see Chen Li’s changes, but Yi Qingcheng and Bing Luo were also shocked to see his current form, especially his golden eyes and the golden aura that enveloped his body.

The two women wanted to say something to stop Chen Li, but Xiao Shijian immediately stopped them, especially since she could feel his anger.

Chen Li was already standing in front of Xuanyuan Jingtian, looking at him with bright golden eyes. “We don’t even know each other, but I’ve sensed your killing intent since we were in the Xuanyuan Clan. At first, I didn’t understand your reasons, but I now know that you are hostile to me because of that old fart, Hua Gaoyun.”
