Just then, a young figure suddenly rose into the air and, in the blink of an eye, stood half a step behind Ye Mu.
“Xuan’er…”
That person was Ye Ming.
When his gaze fell upon Su Xuan'er, Ye Ming's eyes instantly reddened.
Immediately afterwards, he sensed the powerful aura of the person in front of him and couldn't help but focus his mind slightly. He knew that his father had already decided to kill him.
After hesitating for a moment, he slowly said, "Father, things have come to this point, please agree to my marriage with Xuan'er. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and you are already so old..."
In the past, he would never have dared to say such things to his father.
A father's domineering nature breeds timidity in his children.
Often, even when speaking to Ye Mu, he had to mentally prepare himself, speaking in a soft, low voice, as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
If Ye Mu were to glare at him with a single sharp look, he would instantly feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Even so, when it came to Su Xuan'er, he behaved completely differently than before. Perhaps the boldest thing he ever did in his life was to fall in love with Su Xuan'er.
"Absolutely impossible."
Ye Mu shook his head coldly.
The gentle expression he had just shown when speaking to Jiang Jinyu had vanished without a trace, leaving only coldness and resoluteness.
A complex light flickered in his dark eyes.
Full of calculation.
Ye Ming's behavior made him feel increasingly flustered.
The Ye Ming of the past seems to have ceased to exist. The Ye Ming before him seems to have grown up overnight, almost becoming a stranger, and seems to be gradually slipping out of his control.
ground
Su Xuan'er also saw Ye Ming and immediately became excited, a smile blooming on her little face.
Before I knew it, tears were slowly streaming down my face.
The young girl hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward, tugged at Jiang Jinyu's arm, and said in a coquettish tone, "Ye Ming..."
"Is it him?" Su Xuan'er was pleased. Her gaze fell on Ye Ming, and she smiled, gently pinching Su Xuan'er's nose. "My Xuan'er has good taste. They are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
Su Xuan'er's face quietly flushed.
"Hate……"
She said shyly.
This is the look of an unmarried woman meeting her beloved, a hazy yet tender expression that is most captivating and enchanting.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Mu felt a sudden pang of sadness. He thought of Ye Mujiu, who was far away. For a moment, he could hardly breathe, as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on his heart.
The piercing longing, like a continuous breath, accompanies me.
For some reason, a sentence suddenly popped into his mind.
He had seen it in a book, and he felt it was the perfect word to use in this situation.
There are few true words in the world; a woman's blush is worth more than a thousand words.
"Love is such a complicated thing."
Zhou Mu spat out a mouthful of phlegm and said.
In mid-air
Faced with Ye Mu's resolute stance, Ye Ming suddenly felt an immense surge of power within him. For the first time, he felt a desire to defy his father, whom he had always been careful with.
"Father, I'm not discussing this with you."
His tone became more firm.
He, who had always been somewhat timid in front of his father, was now filled with a sense of determination.
Even if a knife were held to his neck at this moment, it wouldn't change his mind.
"You mean, this is a unilateral notification to me?"
Sensing the change in Ye Ming's tone, Ye Mu's expression gradually turned cold.
"Father, I'm sorry."
A dark glint flashed in Ye Ming's eyes.
He gritted his teeth, then suddenly spread his hands wide, and a surge of spiritual energy flowed out from his palms, enveloping his entire body in a short instant.
The next moment, he charged toward the hard protective shield.
"The traitor."
Ye Mu was so angry that his head was on fire.
Seeing this, he did not stop him.
This protective shield is undoubtedly one of the Ye family's greatest assets. It should be noted that this was a spirit array created by his ancestor after exhausting his family's wealth to find a Saint-level spirit array master. Although the limitations of the rare materials and spiritual treasures used at the time greatly reduced the Saint-level spirit array's quality.
But below the level of a sage, almost no one can break through it.
In recent years, as the Ye family's foundation has gradually expanded and its resources have become more profound, after investing in some rare natural treasures, it eventually reached the level of a saint-level spirit array.
Even a saint in person could not break through this solid protective barrier.
This is one of the reasons why he can now speak on equal footing with the prefectural governor's office.
Boom
With a loud bang, the most dazzling light naturally went out, crashing heavily to the ground like a shooting star, kicking up clouds of dust.
"Overestimating one's abilities."
Even though that person was his only child, Ye Mu couldn't feel a pang of heartache at this moment.
In his view, no one could go against his will.
"Ye Ming..."
However, this broke Su Xuan'er's heart. She was about to rush over when she was stopped by the transparent shield. She could only watch helplessly as her beloved lay unconscious in the pit.
"Waaaah... You're so silly."
She squatted on the ground and cried helplessly.
Like a lonely flower bud battered by a raging storm, adrift and uncertain.
This broke Jiang Jinyu's heart.
However, she still looked at Zhou Mu and asked, "Do you have a solution?"
This is, after all, Zhou Mu's home turf. If Zhou Mu were to intervene in some matters, there would still be room for maneuver.
Zhou Mu shook his head solemnly and sighed, "I didn't expect to find a Saint-level spirit array here. I didn't bring anyone with me, so, little rich girl, I can only rely on you."
"A rich woman?" Jiang Jinyu raised an eyebrow.
"Aren't you rich enough?" Zhou Mu asked matter-of-factly.
“Naturally wealthy,” Jiang Jinyu replied after a moment’s thought.
"That's incredible, little rich lady."
As Zhou Mu spoke, he chuckled softly.
After some teasing, which eased the tense atmosphere, Jiang Jinyu's gaze fell on Su Xuan'er. He said helplessly, "You little girl, you're so infatuated. Sigh... Oh well, what can I do? We hit it off right away."
As soon as he said these words, Zhou Mu knew that there was hope for the matter.
Jiang Jinyu slightly raised her beautiful face, revealing her swan-like white neck, and spoke towards a void, "Uncle Zhang."
As the crisp sound faded, everyone clearly felt their spiritual energy becoming somewhat out of control. An ancient and primordial aura filled the air, an aura many times stronger than when Jiang Jinyu had come out earlier.
It started as a small dot, but gradually, that dot expanded, and the aura from the ancient wilderness grew stronger.
