"It's alright, as long as you're alright."
Shen smiled silently with satisfaction, his smile like the warmest sunshine in spring, dispelling the gloom that had lingered in his heart for many days.
Since Ye Chen disappeared, he has been deeply worried.
At first, there was only a vague sense of unease, but as time went on, that unease gradually turned into despair.
Every day and night, he would think of Ye Chen's energetic and resolute face, and secretly pray that a miracle would happen.
Now that Ye Chen has finally reappeared before him, it has undoubtedly injected a new hope into his nearly broken heart.
"Master, I noticed you seemed uneasy just now. Has something happened?"
Ye Chen asked with concern.
In fact, as soon as he stepped into this place, he keenly noticed Shen Wuyan's strangeness. His brows were furrowed and his face was solemn, which was completely unlike his usual calm and composed demeanor.
If Ye Chen hadn't spoken up to ask, Shen Wuyan would probably still be lost in his own thoughts.
It should be noted that although Ye Chen has now reached the Immortal Lord realm, Shen Wuyan is, after all, a powerful peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal.
Logically speaking, with his cultivation level and perception, he should have been able to easily detect the movements around him. However, the fact is that even when Ye Chen came close, Shen Wuyan did not notice him at all, which shows that he must be troubled by something extremely important deep in his heart.
"Sigh..." Upon hearing Ye Chen's question, Shen Wuyan couldn't help but sigh softly, a look of undisguised sorrow appearing on his face.
"It's your junior sister."
The god spoke in a deep voice without words.
"Junior sister? Master, you've taken on another disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen quickly asked with a smile!
You should know that before this, his revered master had never accepted any personal disciples!
He has always been Shen Wuyan's only and first disciple.
However, to his utter surprise, during the years he had disappeared, his master actually recruited another disciple.
However, upon closer reflection, this might not be such a bad thing after all. At least during the long period of his absence, someone could accompany their master, preventing him from being alone all day and appearing too lonely and desolate.
It should be noted that Shen Wuyan is no ordinary person; he is the dignified Temple Master of the Human Race Temple!
Therefore, apart from a few people who were extremely close to him, everyone else was extremely respectful, even trembling with fear, when they met the god who was speechless.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this lofty position that Shen Wuyan often felt a deep sense of loneliness wash over him like a tide.
"She is not a newly accepted disciple, but my daughter."
At this moment, a hint of undisguised pain and a touch of helplessness flashed in Shen Wuyan's eyes.
"What? Master, you already have a daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was greatly surprised, and his face instantly filled with disbelief.
Back in the day, before he disappeared, his master was all alone!
Who would have thought that now that he has finally returned, his master already has his own blood relative—a lovely daughter.
"Hehe, Ting'er, she was born into this world a full thousand years after you disappeared. So, you two haven't even met yet!"
A bitter smile appeared on Shen Wuyan's lips as he sighed helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen quickly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and congratulated Shen Wuyan with a joyful expression, saying, "Congratulations, Master, on the birth of your beloved daughter! I imagine Junior Sister is as gentle and charming as her name suggests."
Immediately afterward, Ye Chen looked concerned and cautiously asked, "Master, what's wrong with Junior Sister? Why are you so worried and frowning? Could it be that something serious has happened?"
Shen Wuyan sighed deeply and slowly explained:
"Well, to be honest, your junior sister has an unusual constitution. Every hundred years, she will experience a strange change."
"At that time, her delicate body will be tightly enveloped by an icy chill, and she will be frozen instantly, unable to move. Over the years, in order to find a way to save her, I have traveled almost all over the Zhongtian Star Region and visited countless famous doctors and experts, but I have always come up with nothing."
At this point, Shen Wuyan's voice trembled slightly, his face full of pain and self-blame: "Just recently, the mutation in Ting'er's body has erupted again."
"Whenever I think of the unbearable pain and torment she is enduring right now, it feels like a thousand steel needles are piercing my heart at the same time, the pain is so intense that it's almost impossible to breathe..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Wuyan choked up, his eyes reddening and tears welling up.
"Such a thing is true?"
Upon hearing Shen Wuyan's words, Ye Chen frowned slightly.
"Master, may I go see my junior sister?"
Ye Chen asked!
Although he had never met his junior sister, Ye Chen was certain that he loved and cared for his master's daughter very much.
"Okay, come with me!"
Shen Wuyan nodded and led Ye Chen toward a bedroom on the side.
As the two entered the bedroom, Ye Chen immediately felt an extremely cold chill, a chill that even he, a Celestial Lord, felt.
"That intense?"
Ye Chen's face was filled with disbelief, and his heart was in turmoil.
