92: Ip Man fighting with his daughter

Listening to Zi Yue's words, Ye Wen couldn't help but smile.

He then walked over and sat down in front of Ji Ziyue. Once seated, he noticed her attire; she was wearing an ink-colored cheongsam, and through the side slit, the lace trim of her garter stockings was faintly visible.

Meanwhile, their daughter, Ye Nianyue, was currently suckling, making little kitten-like purring sounds.

Watching his daughter eating so happily, Ye Wen suddenly reached out with both hands and picked her up.

"Eating so happily, it seems your mother's breast milk is very sweet and fragrant."

...The little one in Ye Wen's arms kicked her legs in dissatisfaction, struggling within his embrace.

"Give Yue'er back to me. Yue'er just woke up and hasn't been drinking for long. How shameless." Ji Ziyue looked at Ye Wen with a speechless expression.

She then snatched the child back from Ye Wen's arms and continued breastfeeding her.

Having regained access to the milk, the child immediately quieted down.

"Wasn't it just because I saw her eating so joyfully?" Ye Wen's words made Ji Ziyue's face flush instantly. "Big Scoundrel, I really underestimated your thick skin." Ji Ziyue held her daughter tightly and looked at Ye Wen warily.

She was afraid he would try to take her daughter away again.

Suddenly, a silver-bell-like laughter came from the side. Qin Yao was reclining on the couch holding Ye Siyao, her crimson-painted fingertips undoing the frog buttons of her cheongsam: "If Husband loves it..."

"Nonsense!" The Jade Lake Saintess hurriedly covered Ye Huaiyao's eyes, though the tips of her own ears were red enough to bleed. Her legs, beneath her moon-white cheongsam, crossed uncomfortably.

Yao Xi unhurriedly tied Ye Chengxi's swaddling clothes, her jade nail guards tapping against a celadon cup: "According to the 'Classic of Raising Infants'... to test the temperature—the Saint Highness is indeed following ancient rites." The golden-threaded Phoenix on her black cheongsam rose and fell with her breathing, her eyes sweeping over Ye Wen with a faint, lingering smile.

The most extreme was Jiang Caixuan, who held Ye Caixuan and shrank behind a screen, a crimson blush spreading from her neck down to her calves clad in black stockings: "You... all of you... the children are watching..." Before she could finish, the little girl in her arms suddenly giggled, milk stains marking the daylily embroidery on the front of her mother's cheongsam.

Phoenix raised an eyebrow and stuffed Ye Qihuang into her husband's arms, her red-gold nail guards undoing the standing collar of her cheongsam: "Since... lest it be said this Palace is biased." The gilded Phoenix locket on her chest jingled softly, startling her daughter into grabbing a lock of her mother's hair.

Zi Xia hurriedly used her rosy clouds shawl to cover Ye Wanxia, the hairpins in her hair swaying into blurred shadows: "Saint, quickly coax Nianyue! Sister Ziyue's silk fan is about to poke through the screen!" Before her voice fell, Ye Xibi in Ji Biyue's arms suddenly let out a milky burp, freezing this farce in the morning light.

"Stop fooling around. And Husband, first thing in the morning, don't make things difficult for us." The Jade Lake Saintess spoke up, looking at Ye Wen with a coquettish glare.

It was as if she were blaming his recklessness, and then she looked at Phoenix, Qin Yao, and the others. "You too, following him in his nonsense. You are all mothers now; you should restrain your temperaments a bit." It was the first time the Jade Lake Saintess had spoken in such a tone.

Her words caused Phoenix and Qin Yao to sit back on the couch, not daring to say anything more.

The others followed suit upon seeing this.

Ye Wen saw that the Jade Lake Saintess was getting a bit angry.

A smile couldn't help but appear on his face: "What does it matter? We are an old married couple. So what if you've become mothers? Things should be as they are. Besides, the children will be sent away soon anyway."

Hearing Ye Wen's words, the women's faces were filled with shock.

Why were the children being sent away?

At this moment, Yao Xi spoke up to explain: "Children will limit you and also affect the relationship between us and Husband. Therefore, after the children have their talents tested and reach their full moon milestone, they will be sent away. Don't worry, the place they are going is our rear area. Our sisters are there, and they will take care of the children. You don't need to worry."

Yao Xi told the women about the matters regarding Lingxu Grotto-Heaven.

Hearing that they were to be separated from their daughters, the women's moods immediately became dejected.

Especially Phoenix and Ji Ziyue.

"Big Scoundrel... are the children really being sent away?" Ji Ziyue looked at the little cutie drinking milk in her arms. Such a cute daughter—she really couldn't bear to send her away.

And sending them away at the full moon—wasn't that too fast?

"It's not fast. Waiting until the full moon is already showing consideration for you." Ye Wen looked at them and couldn't help but say: "Keeping the children by your side will only harm you. Moreover, having the children here will affect the feelings between you and me. You wouldn't want our relationship to be affected because of the children, would you?"

Ye Wen's gaze swept over them.

Although separating from their children was cruel to them, it was inevitable. The children could not stay by their sides, and it was impossible for them to only give birth to this one child.

They were Cultivators; they only needed to recuperate for a few days to be able to continue having children.

However, Ye Wen would wait until the children reached their full moon before continuing to have more children with them.

One month was enough for them to recover their bodies and prepare for the next pregnancy.

The more children they bore, the stronger their power would become.

At the same time, the more power he could obtain. Therefore, Ye Wen could not allow the children to hinder him.

"One month... alright... but Big Scoundrel... can I send the child back to my mother's side? It would be fine to let her help take care of the child." Ji Ziyue thought that sending the child back to the Ji Family was also a good choice.

"Husband... I also want to send the child back to my parents' side, to let them hold their granddaughter." Ji Biyue also spoke up.

"Husband... me too. I've been away for nearly a year. If the child is with the Jiang Family, my parents will be very happy."

"The same for me. Let's send the child back to the Feng Family. The Feng Family has many resources to take good care of the child." Phoenix also stood up and said.

Hearing that they wanted to send the children back to their maternal homes.

Ye Wen thought for a moment and finally looked at Ji Ziyue and the others.

"It's not impossible, but the children can only be entrusted to your mothers' care. If you promise that, I will let you send the children back." Ye Wen ultimately agreed to their request.

Seeing Ye Wen agree, Ji Ziyue and the others nodded repeatedly in agreement, stating they would definitely ensure their mothers took good care of the children.

"Since it's settled, let's take a look at our first batch of children and see how much of our talent they have inherited." Ye Wen's gaze turned toward the children in their arms.

Ji Ziyue and the others, holding their suckling children, stood up and surrounded Ye Wen.

"How will you check?" Ji Ziyue looked at Ye Wen while holding Yue'er.

Not just Ji Ziyue, but also Ji Biyue, Jiang Caixuan, and the others all surrounded Ye Wen.

Seeing their nervous expressions, Ye Wen gave them a smile to reassure them.

"It's very simple and will be very quick." Ye Wen reached out and touched his daughters' foreheads to begin checking their Cultivation talent.

With the help of the System, he could precisely inspect the Cultivation talent of these children.
