Ye Chen raised his hand and waved gently.
A pale golden light curtain appeared out of nowhere, like an upside-down glass bowl, instantly enveloping Nianrou and Mingyuan.
This barrier blocked all sight and sound from inside and outside, leaving a private space for the father and daughter who had not recognized each other for a thousand years.
Inside the barrier, time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Nianrou looked at the man in front of her whose eyes were full of guilt and who didn't even dare to extend his hand, and the last trace of resentment in her heart disappeared.
Nianrou slowly reached out her hand, gently held Mingyuan's trembling hand that was suspended in mid-air, and placed it on her cheek.
"Father...Father."
The two words came out of Nianrou's mouth awkwardly, as if she had used up all her strength.
"I don't blame you."
Nian Rou's eyes were red: "I know your difficulties."
Two lines of clear tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the back of Mingyuan's hand.
A thousand years ago, when Ye Chen took her to Qingshui Village in Xizhou to meet Mingyuan for the first time, she already had some guesses about her life experience.
She had been waiting for this day for a thousand years!
When Mingyuan heard the word "Father", his whole body shook violently, as if he was struck by lightning.
He, the Buddha whose mind had long been calm, could no longer remain composure at this moment.
He looked at his daughter in front of him, feeling the warmth on her cheek, his voice filled with deep remorse.
"My child... I feel sorry for you and your mother."
"Over the years, as a father, I have been restless day and night, feeling guilty!"
Nian Rou shook her head gently, her eyes full of understanding: "Father, I already know what happened back then. You are not to blame for what happened to Mother."
"Your mother is the kindest woman in the world. It's my fault that I failed to protect her."
Mingyuan's eyes were blurred and his voice was trembling slightly.
"Father, the invasion of the evil god is unpredictable. Mother will not blame you. I want to go to Xizhou to pay my respects to her."
Nianrou gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up at Mingyuan with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
"Okay, let's set off for Xizhou immediately!"
Mingyuan looked at Nianrou and nodded, his voice filled with a hint of relief.
Mingyuan raised his hand and waved lightly, and the light curtain of the pale golden barrier slowly dissipated, revealing the figures of two people.
"Master, I want to go to Xizhou with my father to pay homage to my mother."
Nian Rou walked up to Ye Chen, bowed respectfully and said.
"Go ahead, be careful."
Ye Chen nodded slightly, his eyes full of gentleness.
"Amitabha, Master Ye, I will go first."
Mingyuan clasped his hands together, finished speaking, and turned into two streams of light and left with Nianrou.
At this time, Xiao Wuhen and Zhuge Kong walked towards Ye Chen with evil smiles on their faces.
"The father and daughter finally recognized each other!"
Zhuge Kong looked at the direction Mingyuan left and said.
"Brother Ye is so lucky that even the Saint is so enthusiastic."
Xiao Wuhen winked and spoke in a teasing tone.
Ye Chen glared at them helplessly.
"You two should stop teasing me. This is for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, three drops of thunder liquid emitting purple-gold light flew out from his fingertips and flew towards Zhuge Kong, Xiao Wuhen and Fu Jingxian respectively.
Zhuge Kong and Xiao Wuhen's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and they swallowed it without hesitation.
"Wow! Brother Ye, this Thunder Tribulation Liquid is really good stuff, thank you very much!"
Zhuge Kong was filled with excitement, feeling the vast power surge within his body, and his cultivation level also showed signs of a breakthrough.
"Brother Ye, you're so kind! This brotherhood is really worth making!"
Xiao Wuhen's face was also filled with joy, and he quickly sat down cross-legged to refine this power.
Fu Jingxian happily swallowed the drop of thunder liquid into her stomach, feeling her talent improving rapidly, her heart filled with excitement.
"Ye Chen, I know that you still have me in your heart!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to throw herself into Ye Chen's arms again.
Ye Chen was prepared and quickly avoided Fu Jingxian's "enthusiasm" with a flash of his body.
"Saint, enough is enough!"
Ye Chen looked helpless. This little girl didn't even bother pretending anymore and just revealed her cards directly.
"Humph, stingy guy, you can't even give me a hug!"
Fu Jingxian curled her lips in dissatisfaction and pretended to be angry, but there was still an unconcealable smile in her beautiful eyes.
Ye Chen ignored her nonsense and turned to look at everyone, his expression instantly becoming serious.
"This cancer of the ancient clan must be eradicated."
As soon as these words were spoken, the air around them seemed to freeze, and an invisible aura of solemnity and murderousness spread.
"Brother Ye, if you have any plans, just tell us. We will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"
Xiao Wuhen put away the playful smile on his face, looked solemn and spoke seriously.
“No need.”
Ye Chen's eyes were firm, and his tone was calm but carried an unquestionable majesty.
"I alone am enough to destroy the ancient clan."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
"Brother Ye, don't be careless!"
Zhuge Kong calculated for a moment with his fingers, his brows furrowed.
"The Ancient Clan may have more than just the four saints that are publicly known."
There was a hint of worry in his tone.
"No problem."
"He's just a saint who has one foot in the coffin."
Ye Chen said with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Decades ago, when he broke into the ancient Peng family, he had already sensed the aura of that acquired saint.
But everyone was shocked when they heard Ye Chen's words. The ancient clan actually had a hidden acquired saint.
Ruoxi and Xiaodie looked at each other, but their faces were calm.
They had long known that there was an acquired saint in the ancient clan who had problems breaking through, whose qi and blood were depleted, and whose lifespan was nearing the end.
