Chapter 74 Incident

Chapter 74 Incident

When they returned to Jimin Hall, they suddenly sensed an unusual aura.

Shen Yi was the first to step into the courtyard, and saw Shen Fu standing aside in a proper manner, winking at him. At the stone table behind him, sat his aunt and cousin Shen Jiaorou.

Shen Yi's pupils shrank slightly and he froze in place.

When Shen Jiaorou saw him come in, she was surprised and delighted for a moment, but suddenly she realized something and her expression suddenly turned down. She said in a sad voice: "Cousin, you...you actually..."

Shen Yi didn't even glance at her, he just bowed to the second elder, "Aunt."

The second elder held a snake-shaped staff and stared at him sternly and sharply. His eyes were full of disappointment and anger. His fingers on the stone table trembled slightly. He wanted to say something several times but stopped himself. Finally, he said in a hateful voice: "Okay, very good! Now that you have grown wings, you dare to deceive me and do such shameless things!"

“.………”

Chen Yi was speechless and just lowered his head in silence.

Jiang Yuyan looked at the situation in the field and frowned nervously. She asked tentatively: "This...senior...what mistake did Shen Yi make?"

"Who are you?!"

The Second Elder's brows were locked into a shape of a "川" character. His sharp eyes slowly swept over her and he asked in astonishment, "Is the Snow Charm with you?"

Jiang Yuyan cast a glance at Shen Yi, who shook his head at her. Jiang Yuyan's heart shuddered, but she still said, "Yes."

"You vixen!" Shen Jiaorou's eyes turned red with anger, and she immediately drew her sword, "Mother, kill her and take back Xue Mei!"

"snort!"

The staff slammed into the ground, making a sound of cracking tiles. A chilly aura rose from the Second Elder's body, and in a flash, the staff attacked Jiang Yuyan with a fierce force.

"Aunt!" Shen Yi was shocked and tried to stop him. On the other side, Cang Yi had already caught the staff with his bare hands.

Looking at the weapon above her head, Jiang Yuyan took a breath. Her 100,000 taels were worth it! But the old witch had no moral principles and killed people without hesitation!

Chen Yi stopped in front of Jiang Yuyan and said, "Aunt, no! I have never asked you for anything. She is my chosen wife. Please let her go!"

The second elder's face turned cold and he was furious when he heard this.

"Chen Yi, have you forgotten your father's teachings? How could you be so foolish! You are the holy son of our clan, the head of our clan, how dare you despise yourself and want to share a wife with an outsider?!"

Chen Yi smiled bitterly, "Aunt, I never wanted to share my beloved with others! It's just that fate brought us together, and I'm deeply trapped now..."

"You are stuck in a deep pit! I will kill her even more! I don't believe I can't pull you back after such a long time!"

The second elder's slightly cloudy eyes were wide open, and he was obviously furious, and he attacked with another killing move. Cang Yi's eyes showed a cold light and he took them one by one without haste.

Shen Yi was deeply grateful for the upbringing of the Second Elder, and at the moment he felt heartbroken and torn, but he could see that Cang Yi was indeed a martial arts master, and his aunt could do nothing to him.

Shen Jiaorou shouted anxiously, "Cousin, have you forgotten who raised you? You actually let someone fight with my mother?!"

After saying that, he joined the battle.

She ignored Cang Yi and stabbed Jiang Yuyan in the face.

Seeing this, Shen Yi waved his robe and swept her sword away in an instant, shouting, "Enough!"

"She is pregnant with my flesh and blood, and she is the next Holy Son of my Lingshu Clan. This matter ends here, and I will return to my clan to accept the punishment for my crime!" Shen Yi's brows were solemn, and he exuded the majesty of a superior. Everyone was frightened and stopped.

"You!" The Second Elder's heart surged, "Are you serious?!"

"Yes!" Shen Yi looked back firmly.

The scene strangely calmed down. The Second Elder might have been so angry that he forgot to check and snorted, "You are so calculating! In order to protect her, you are willing to violate the clan rules and disregard your own reputation!"

Over there, Shen Jiaorou's eyes were already wet, and she ran out in a daze, covering her face.

Jiang Yuyan was also stunned by surprise. She cast a glance at Shen Yi. Could she be diagnosed with pregnancy in just half a month?

But she suddenly remembered that the fifteenth of last month was indeed her ovulation day, and she had not had her period at the end of the month a few days ago. Could it be that she really hit the jackpot?

Chen Yi turned his head and gently took off the crooked veil on her head, revealing a charming and stunning face.

The Second Elder and Cang Yi were both shocked.

Everyone loves beauty, so the second elder couldn't help but lower his voice a little, "Humph! In that case, you should take good care of your child, and I will come to pick you up in ten months. If you dare to escape privately, my Lingshu Valley will issue a hunting order throughout the world, and you will be killed without a complete body!"

Jiang Yuyan said nothing. Chen Yi also pretended not to hear her. He just gently stroked Jiang Yuyan's cheek and looked deeply into her eyes. That look seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, full of lingering reluctance and tenderness that was difficult to express.

Jiang Yuyan looked at him at a loss. Their long sleeves touched each other, and Chen Yi secretly squeezed her hand, and a piece of paper disappeared into his sleeve.

"Chen Yi..."

Several people, including Shen Fu, disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Jiang Yuyan stood there, her heart aching slightly.

She carefully opened the paper, and the three words "Return to Beijing as soon as possible" appeared before her eyes.

Jiang Yuyan was stunned. It turned out that Shen Yi said that she was pregnant only as a temporary measure, but he actually asked her to run away. He must have never thought that she would get pregnant so soon, and just took all the blame on herself. Jiang Yuyan could not imagine what Shen Yi would encounter after returning.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and Jiang Yuyan murmured with tears in her eyes: "What a fool he is! How can he be so stupid when he is so much older than me!"

"Madam, you need to take care of yourself and the young master..."

When a beauty cries, even an immortal cannot be hard-hearted. As soon as Cang Yi finished speaking caring words, he lowered his head in astonishment. In just two days, he was no longer like himself.

Jiang Yuyan didn't notice Cang Yi's awkwardness, her thoughts were churning. If she was really pregnant with the next generation of the Holy Son of the Lingshu Clan, perhaps she would have some bargaining chips to negotiate with them and rescue Chen Yi.

Jiang Yuyan's medical skills were limited, so she asked Cang to find several famous doctors in the city, but unfortunately none of them could diagnose the slippery pulse. This made Jiang Yuyan very nervous and she was not sure herself.

It was not until six days later that an old doctor said that the baby must be pregnant.

Jiang Yuyan was overjoyed, it was just as she expected!

“Wait for me…” Jiang Yuyan looked into the depths of the misty Lingshan Mountain and clenched her fists secretly.
