"Well said!"
Old Demon Su also walked over leisurely, slapped Emperor Qin Tian on the shoulder with a smirk on his face.
"Old Qin, I think it's more appropriate for you to do this kind of hard labor."
"We'll go back and wait to hold our grandchildren, hahaha!"
Wanting his apprentice to do hard labor? What a joke! No way!
Emperor Qin Tian was squeezed and looked helpless. Although Ye Chen was powerful, he had no interest in power at all.
"Come on, old Tiandi, I'm rooting for you!"
Tao Shasha's figure passed by Emperor Qin Tian.
She stopped, clenched her fists towards Emperor Qin Tian, and made a gesture of encouragement.
"I'm optimistic about you too!"
Nangong Zhuxuan walked lightly in front of Emperor Qin Tian and winked playfully.
"Don't feel pressured, as my junior brother is here to take care of you."
After saying that, she also imitated Tao Shasha and made a cheering gesture to Emperor Qin Tian.
Baili Hong and Ren Xiaoyao looked at each other and walked over.
The two men, one on the left and one on the right, patted Emperor Qin Tian's shoulders heavily.
"Old Qin, this kind of hard labor is indeed more suitable for you."
Ren Xiaoyao spoke casually, his eyes full of encouragement.
"That's right, keep going!" Baili Hong nodded in agreement.
The corners of Emperor Qin Tian's mouth twitched, and his old face completely fell. None of these people are reliable!
At this moment, Fu Jingxian, who was standing next to Tan Taiyue, quietly pulled her sleeve, with a bit of shyness and pleading in her eyes.
Tan Taiyue sighed inwardly and gave her a reassuring look.
Forget it, this is my only beloved disciple after all.
She moved lightly with lotus steps, her body swaying, and in an instant she blocked Ye Chen who was about to slip away.
"Xiaochen."
Tan Tai Yue's smile was as beautiful as a flower, and her voice was soft and charming.
"My disciple is deeply in love with you, can you really bear to... reject her?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent again. Everyone's gazes became ambiguous, and they all looked back and forth between Ye Chen and Tan Taiyue.
"Master's wife, please don't mess around with me."
Ye Chen was confused and subconsciously took half a step back.
"I don't even know your disciple, so how can you say I'm so infatuated with him?"
"Her disciple is me!"
A sweet voice sounded from behind Ye Chen.
A fragrant breeze blew over, and Fu Jingxian rushed up quickly and hugged his arm tightly without saying a word.
"Ye Chen, just take me in!"
"What?"
Ye Chen only felt his head buzzing and went blank.
"You...are my master's wife's apprentice?"
He turned his head stiffly and looked at the beautiful face so close to him.
This is a bit messy!
My second master married her master, and now she asked her master to come back and let my master's apprentice kill her!
This is all a mess!
"Haha... Saint, this is inappropriate. It's really inappropriate."
Ye Chen laughed dryly twice and tried to break free from her tight embrace.
"What's inappropriate!"
Fu Jingxian hugged him even tighter, pressing her soft body against him, and resting her little head affectionately on his shoulder.
"I don't care, I'm going to follow you!"
Her voice was not loud, but full of determination.
Ye Chen felt a headache and was extremely helpless.
Someone come and save me! He cried silently in his heart.
As if someone had heard his inner thoughts, Ye Chen subconsciously raised his head and met a pair of beautiful eyes in front of him.
There, Murong Xue's beautiful figure stood quietly, her cold eyes falling on him.
She just stood there, as if waiting for him.
"Handle it yourself. We'll go back and wait for you."
Just when Ye Chen's scalp was tingling, Luo Qingcheng's voice sounded quietly in his ears, her breath as sweet as orchid.
After she finished speaking, she exchanged a glance with the other women, then turned into several streaks of light and instantly disappeared into the sky.
"I'm waiting for you at home too!"
Seeing this, Fu Jingxian's eyes lit up and she let go of Ye Chen's arm.
He gave Ye Chen a triumphant smile, then turned into a stream of light and chased in the direction the women left.
In the blink of an eye, everyone who was originally very lively left tactfully.
Only Ye Chen and Murong Xue were left, facing each other from a distance.
Once again, only the sound of the wind remained between heaven and earth.
Murong Xue took slow steps and walked towards Ye Chen step by step.
She raised her head, and her icy eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
There is guilt, regret, expectation, and a hint of vulnerability that comes from the fear of rejection.
"Ye Chen..."
Her voice was dry and trembling.
"Before, I was short-sighted. I'm sorry. I... do we still have a chance?"
Ye Chen looked at the beauty in front of him and sighed silently in his heart.
Old Devil Su, this is all your fault! Why did you make such a random engagement?
He cursed his second master Su Taixu a hundred and eighty times in his heart.
"Miss Murong."
He said calmly, "I didn't take the past things to heart."
"That's your free choice. You're not wrong."
Ye Chen's eyes were clear, without a trace of complaint.
"You are a good girl, but if you miss something, you don't have to cling to it anymore."
His words were undoubtedly a tactful refusal.
"It's me...I'm not worthy of you."
Murong Xue's delicate body trembled, and her eyes were instantly covered with a layer of mist, filled with loss.
"I've always wanted to catch up with you and make myself worthy enough to stand by your side."
"But the gap between you and me is like heaven and earth."
"No matter how hard I chase, I can't touch your back."
She bit her lips tightly and raised her head stubbornly.
"But I will try! I will try to make myself worthy of you!"
She looked determined, as if she was taking an oath.
"Miss Murong, why are you doing this?"
Ye Chen frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"The past is like smoke and clouds, like a dream or bubble. Those who practice Taoism and cling to it blindly will only find themselves bound by heavy shackles, unable to move forward."
His voice clearly struck Murong Xue's heart.
“Only by learning to let go and letting things take their course can one achieve enlightenment.”
There was no deep hatred between him and Murong Xue, and he did not want the old incident of breaking off the engagement to become a demon in her heart on the road of cultivation.
Murong Xue's body trembled violently when she heard Ye Chen's words.
Let it go? Let it be?
She slowly closed her eyes and fell into a wonderful meditation.
Seeing this, Ye Chen did not disturb her, but just stood quietly by her side to protect her.
I don’t know how long it took.
"Buzz!"
A mysterious aura suddenly rose from Murong Xue's body, and her momentum continued to rise.
Her heart knot was untied, and she actually broke through to a new level on the spot.
After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes.
The eyes that were once filled with obsession and unwillingness now became clear and bright.
"Ye Chen, thank you very much."
A relieved smile appeared on Murong Xue's face: "I... understand."
