Chapter 773 – Yang Ye’s Sword Dao! (1/2)

It was Lu Wan’er.

At this moment, Lu Wan’er didn’t seem weak and delicate as she used to be, but she didn’t have an oppressive aura as well. She was very indifferent and quiet like water.

A wisp of surprise flashed through Yang Ye’s eyes when he saw her, “You’ve attained the 7th level of sword intent? How could this be possible…?” It had only been a short period since he last saw her, and she didn’t even know how to use the sword then. Yet now, she was at the 7th level of sword intent!

Lu Wan’er nodded and said, “I have a huge number of things that I don’t understand. I might be able to figure it out if we compete!”

“Elder Mu says that she’s an extraordinary genius in the Sword Dao!” Meanwhile, Ding Shaoyao walked over. Qin Xiyue, Xiao Yuxi, Su Qings.h.i.+, and An Biru were by her side. Moreover, a pretty little girl was standing by Su Qings.h.i.+’s side.

Yang Ye’s gaze descended onto the little girl, and the little girl was looking at him as well. There was a trace of curiosity in her eyes, and there was a trace of affection within them as well.

“Nianxue?” As soon as he spoke, Yang Ye was already in front of the little girl, and he grabbed her in his arms. Yang Ye’s actions were quite rough, but the little girl wasn’t afraid, and she even spoke in a clear and melodious voice, “Dad, daddy….” The reason she wasn’t afraid wasn’t because of a natural feeling of closeness with Yang Ye. It was because Su Qings.h.i.+ had told her that Yang Ye was her father.

Yang Ye’s eyes instantly became moist. However, he was beaming from ear to ear. That feeling of being a father was impossible to describe with words.

“Brother!” Suddenly, another clear and melodious voice resounded, and then Yang Ye felt a delicate figure embrace him. It was Little Yao!

Little Xiao wasn’t immature as she seemed before, and she was slightly more mature now.

“Big Brother, you’re finally back!” Little Yao was slightly choking with sobs, but there was a smile on her face. Since their mother had pa.s.sed, her older brother was the one and only loved one in her heart.

Yang Ye rubbed her head, and then his gaze swept past Su Qings.h.i.+ and the others. He said, “I know that all of you were definitely worried about me throughout this time. I’m unable to give any promises to all of you, and I don’t want to apologize about it. Because we’re all a family, and all of that isn’t necessary!”

“I’m not part of your family!” It was Ding Shaoyao who spoke these words. For the sake of backing up her words, she even walked over to the side and created some distance between Su Qings.h.i.+ and the others.

“But you are!” Yang Nianxue spoke in a clear and melodious voice, “You are part of our family!”

The others smiled when they heard this.

The corners of Ding Shaoyao’s mouth twitched slightly, and she walked over to Yang Nianxue before lightly pinching her cheek. She said, “Little Girl, how many times have I told you that I’m not. I’m your aunt. Understand?”

“Why!?” Yang Nianxue grabbed Ding Shaoyao’s hand and said, “Does Aunt Shaoyao not like daddy?”

The corners of Ding Shaoyao’s eyes twitched slightly, but she revealed a gentle smile and said, “Who said that I liked him?”

Yang Nianxue raised her hand and started counting with her fingers, “Mother, Aunt Xiao, Aunt Qin, Aunt An, and… and…. All of them know….”

Su Qings.h.i.+ and the others couldn’t help but chuckle while Yang Ye was quite embarra.s.sed. Ding Shaoyao’s face flushed red as well. She pinched Yang Nianxue’s cheeks again, and then she glared fiercely at Yang Ye before leaving the hall.

“Daddy, did I say something wrong? Aunt Ding seemed to be unhappy!” Yang Nianxue felt quite sad.

Yang Ye laughed bitterly, and then he kissed Yang Nianxue on the forehead and said, “Oh, you….”

In the following days, all the profounders of Profounder Continent were turned into soldiers under Ding Shaoyao’s management. Of course, besides Half-Saints, all the others were just cannon fodder regardless of how numerous they were. However, Yang Ye and Ding Shaoyao’s objective wasn’t to make them fight against the defiant profounders and the Hallowed Grounds. They just wanted everyone to sense the danger that was approaching!

Only by sensing danger and suffering that great pressure would many people work hard and do all they could to get stronger!

At the moment of life and death, the potential of many could be stimulated without end!

Yang Ye gave himself 10 days of rest. He didn’t cultivate throughout those 10 days, and he didn’t pay any attention to the matters within the city. He used all his time to accompany Yang Nianxue, Su Qings.h.i.+, and all his wives.

Yang Ye felt quite a sense of guilt towards all of them. After all, he used most of his time cultivating or doing something or other. The time he stayed by their side could really be counter with his fingers. Moreover, he was very clearly aware that they were definitely extremely worried about him throughout this period that he’d gone to the Hallowed Grounds!

But it couldn’t be helped. Because if he didn’t work hard, then only death would be awaiting him!

Early in the morning one day, Yang Ye was playing with Yang Nianxue in the backyard of the City Governor’s Estate when Lu Wan’er suddenly appeared in front of him.

“Let’s compete in the sword!” She stared at him and didn’t waste her breath at all.

Yang Ye had quite a headache when he saw her. Since the day she saw him, she’d been asking him to compete with her in the sword every single day. Of course, it was naturally impossible for her to be a match for him. The main problem was that she would immediately look for him once she obtained new gains, even if it was late at night!

Yang Ye could refuse her of course, but he didn’t. Because Lu Wan’er’s natural talent in the Sword Dao had truly shocked him. Less than 5 days had pa.s.sed, yet she’d actually attained the 8th level of sword intent from the 7th! Even he couldn’t help but feel embarra.s.sed when facing such a speed of advancement!
