30: Yao Xi's wariness of Yan Ruyu
After Wuming brought Ye Wen and Yan Ruyu in, he looked at the scene before him in shock.
"Do not be surprised, and maintain reverence. This is the Yao Emperor tomb of a Great Emperor; you must show reverence." Ye Wen looked at the complex of ancient buildings before him, all crafted from various precious Materials.
There were also many spirit-linked weapons within it.
"Apologies for the disturbance, Senior Qing Di, I have brought your descendant here." Ye Wen bowed very sincerely towards the ancient palace in the very center.
Then he brought Yan Ruyu and Wuming forward.
Not long after moving forward, Ye Wen felt a massive amount of Yao Race power, and Wuming, by his side, felt the Emperor's Might even more acutely.
It was definitely the Emperor's Might remaining after a Great Emperor's death.
Heavens, he had actually entered the tomb of a Great Emperor, and how did the Saint know this was the Yao Emperor tomb?
Ye Wen ignored Wuming's shock and instead looked at Yan Ruyu beside him, saying: "The rest is up to you to enter on your own. You are the descendant of Qing Di; once you enter, you will naturally be able to receive the Legacy of Qing Di."
Ye Wen did not continue to accompany Yan Ruyu inside.
Yan Ruyu looked at Ye Wen, finally took a deep breath, and walked into that ancient palace.
Behind Ye Wen, Wuming wanted to speak, but was stopped by Ye Wen raising his hand.
"The Emperor Weapon belongs to the Yao Race, and since she is the descendant of Qing Di, do not touch it. It is possible that Qing Di might still be alive..."
Ye Wen naturally knew the situation of Qing Di; although he had abandoned his Physical Body, his divine body was within the desolate tower.
And the desolate tower would fall into the hands of Ye Fan in the future.
Regarding Ye Fan, Ye Wen did not want to interfere too much; anyway, it would be enough once he had collected the women.
Plus, the Ruthless Great Emperor was also her; those so-called Opportunities were of no use to him.
Not to mention that he now had an Emperor Weapon as well.
Ye Wen and Wuming waited outside for a long time; about three hours passed before Yan Ruyu walked out of the ancient palace.
"It seems you have obtained the Legacy of Qing Di. My promise has been fulfilled, so the rest is up to you."
Ye Wen heard the System say that the chaos green lotus and the Yao Emperor's Sacred Heart were already with Yan Ruyu.
"I will agree to your trade. Let's go back now, because since I have taken the Legacy, this place will soon be revealed to the world."
Yan Ruyu had a smile on her face.
She had obtained her ancestor's Emperor Weapon, the chaos green lotus, as well as her ancestor's heart.
This was left by her ancestor for his descendants, and now it had been obtained by her.
Seeing that Yan Ruyu agreed, a smile also appeared on Ye Wen's face.
"Since that is the case, then let us return."
Ye Wen looked at Wuming.
The latter nodded, then brought the two of them and left.
After arriving outside, Wuming tore through the Void Realm and brought the two of them back to the Yaoguang Holy Land.
Upon returning to the Yaoguang Holy Land, Ye Wen let Wuming go back, telling him he would be summoned if needed.
He then brought Yan Ruyu back to Yao Xi's Main Peak.
From leaving to returning, it was only half a day's time.
When the two returned, they saw Yao Xi and Wei Wei waiting in the courtyard.
"Husband, you have returned."
Wei Wei did not know where Ye Wen had gone, but she knew that Ye Wen must have gone to carry out something with Yan Ruyu.
Yao Xi looked at Yan Ruyu beside Ye Wen; this was her first time seeing Yan Ruyu.
She was an extremely beautiful woman, like an orchid in an empty valley, very otherworldly, possessing a serene beauty that blended perfectly with the beautiful natural scenery around her, as if she were a part of the heaven and earth's spiritual essence.
Yao Xi was confident that she was not inferior to anyone, yet the woman before her gave her a feeling of flawlessness. It was not just her beauty which was stunning, but even her temperament was so otherworldly and detached from the mundane world, making others feel inferior, as if all the beautiful things in this world would be eclipsed in her presence.
This woman of peerless grace looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. Her black hair danced lightly, her long eyelashes fluttered, her eyes seemed misted with water, her red lips and jade teeth shone with a crystalline luster, her neck was slender and graceful, her skin was like ice and jade, her features were exquisite, her face was stunning, and her silhouette was hazy and perfect, making one feel she was flawless and pure, so perfect.
Yao Xi was still very confident in herself and was not affected too much. After a brief moment of distraction, she quickly calmed down and walked forward with large strides.
Just at this moment, Yan Ruyu looked towards Yao Xi. Yan Ruyu smiled lightly, and instantly it was like a celestial flower blooming, extremely brilliant, causing even the sun in the sky to lose its color.
For some reason, Yan Ruyu felt a trace of hostility from Yao Xi, but it dissipated quickly.
Yan Ruyu watched Yao Xi walk towards her and also took the initiative to step forward.
"Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Yan Ruyu." Yan Ruyu introduced herself with a smile.
"Yan Ruyu?" Yao Xi was slightly surprised: "The Yao Race Princess Yan Ruyu? No wonder, no wonder, I was wondering who could be so beautiful and moving; so it is the Yao Race Princess."
Yao Xi naturally knew about the Yao Race Princess Yan Ruyu.
As part of the new generation, she knew quite a lot.
"You are not bad either, Shaoguang Saintess." Yan Ruyu looked at Yao Xi with a faint smile.
After knowing that she was in the Yaoguang Holy Land, she recognized that the person before her was the Shaoguang Saintess.
"Not bad? In what way not bad?" Yao Xi smiled, feigning ignorance.
She naturally understood the meaning behind Yan Ruyu's words.
"Let us go inside first before chatting about other things, everyone." Ye Wen spoke from the side, breaking the conversation between the two.
Hearing Ye Wen's words, Yan Ruyu and Yao Xi looked at each other, then both smiled slightly and followed Ye Wen inside.
Behind them, Wei Wei looked at Yao Xi and Yan Ruyu with an awkward expression.
Had the two of them just been secretly competing against each other?
Was she mistaken? She always felt that the two of them didn't get along the moment they met.
Ye Wen brought the three women back into the living room.
Yan Ruyu and Yao Xi each sat down, and Wei Wei came to Ye Wen's side and sat with him.
After sitting down, Ye Wen said: "First, let us congratulate Yan Ruyu Young Miss on joining our big family; everyone, let us applaud to welcome her."
Ye Wen took the lead and started applauding.
Wei Wei also followed suit and applauded to congratulate Yan Ruyu on joining.
Yao Xi also applauded with a smile.
Yan Ruyu thanked everyone with a smile.
"This is Wei Wei, you should know her already; this is Yao Xi. In the future, you will all be sisters. Get to know each other, as everyone will be living together from now on."
Ye Wen introduced Wei Wei and Yao Xi to Yan Ruyu.
And Yan Ruyu nodded and smiled in response to both.
"I will call you Ruyu, so it will be more intimate. Although we are a transaction, you can rest assured that I will treat you like a true Dao Companion. And your task is very simple: it is to Dual Cultivation with me at home and help me improve my strength."
"By Dual Cultivation with me, you will also be able to obtain huge benefits. These are things you need to experience for yourself. When you experience them, you will understand why I said that following me will be your greatest Opportunity."
Ye Wen told Yan Ruyu what she needed to do next.
It was nothing more than Dual Cultivation with him, and incidentally, conceiving a few children. Ye Wen knew Yan Ruyu's personality; perhaps she would like staying at home to raise children very much.
After hearing Ye Wen's introduction, a blush appeared on Yan Ruyu's face as she said: "Everything will be as the Saint commands. So, when shall we begin?"
Yan Ruyu looked at Ye Wen with some shyness.
"Of course, right now?" After Ye Wen finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards Yan Ruyu.
Yan Ruyu looked at Ye Wen walking towards her, completely bewildered. Before she could react, she was swept up into Ye Wen's arms in a bridal carry, and then he headed towards the room.
Yao Xi, seeing this, cheered from behind: "Ruyu Young Miss, if you feel it is too much, you can call me, and I can help you, provided you are willing to call, of course."
Yao Xi said with a smile.
"No... need." Facing Yao Xi's words, Yan Ruyu answered very softly.
