573: Chapter 573 You Can Only Be Mine
On the other side, after leaving the palace of Qianren Hongchen, Ye Chen immediately headed towards his own residence!
He was completely unaware of what was about to happen inside the palace!
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother, you're back!"
Just as Ye Chen walked to the door of his residence, a crisp and pleasant voice came from behind him!
A young girl dressed in a light green dress, with a tall, graceful figure and beauty that could topple nations, approached Ye Chen with a look of delight and called out happily!
"Huan Yue, you've come out of seclusion. How is it? How much has your strength increased?"
Upon seeing the young girl, Ye Chen also asked with a look of delight!
Qianren Hongchen had a total of three disciples, one male and two females. Ye Chen was the second eldest, and above him was a Senior Sister named Ye Xuening. The young girl before him was his Junior Sister, named Xia Huan Yue!
"Senior Brother, I'm very impressive now! I've successfully achieved a Breakthrough. Isn't that amazing?"
Xia Huan Yue hugged one of Ye Chen's arms and said intimately. Her charming big eyes were sparkling like little stars, making her look exceptionally cute and moving!
"Indeed, Huan Yue is truly amazing!"
Hearing this, Ye Chen also affectionately patted Xia Huan Yue's head!
He had watched Xia Huan Yue grow up since she was a child and had long treated her like his own younger sister, so the two of them had been very close since childhood.
Hearing Ye Chen's praise, Xia Huan Yue's face beamed with a brilliant smile, as bright and moving as a flower blooming in spring.
"Senior Brother, what have you been busy with lately? I want to go down the mountain to play. Senior Brother, why don't you accompany me down?"
Xia Huan Yue tilted her head slightly, her lively big eyes looking at Ye Chen with full anticipation.
Ye Chen smiled dotingly and said softly, "Senior Brother has things to take care of next, so I don't have time to accompany you down to play. Why don't you find your Senior Sister?"
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, Xia Huan Yue immediately wrinkled her cute little nose and said, "Senior Brother, what are you going to do? I want to go with you too."
As she spoke, Xia Huan Yue hugged Ye Chen's arm tightly, as if she were afraid he might suddenly disappear.
Feeling Xia Huan Yue's reliance on him, Ye Chen shook his head helplessly. "Be good, Huan Yue. Not this time. It's a bit dangerous, and it's not convenient to take you with me. Next time there's an opportunity, I'll take you out to play!"
He was planning to go snatch a bride this time; it was dangerous enough even for him alone, so naturally, he couldn't take Xia Huan Yue along!
After soothing Xia Huan Yue, Ye Chen returned to his attic!
Immediately after, he took out a message-transmitting jade tablet and input a line of text into it!
Not long after, a very mysterious middle-aged man dressed entirely in black appeared in his attic. He then knelt on one knee, bowed to him, and said, "Greetings, Master!"
"You all go back and prepare. In a few days, I will head to the Gu Family in Yong Province to snatch a bride. Find a way to contact my elder brother, Thunder Dragon Taoist, and have him come to assist me!"
"Also, notify the head of the White Family in Yong Province. It's time for them to repay the favor they owe me!"
"In addition, send someone to the Nine Profound Holy Land to find their Saint, Mo Tianyun. He is also my sworn brother. Find a way to convey my message to him. If he has time, ask him to go and assist me!"
Since Ye Chen dared to go to the Gu Family to snatch a bride, he certainly had a certain degree of confidence. His connections were extremely broad, and he knew many experts, all of whom owed him a favor to some extent!
Especially his opportunistic elder brother, Thunder Dragon Taoist, whose true form was a Thunder Dragon; his strength had reached the Eighth Level of the Great Saint Realm, which was terrifying!
The reason he came to know the other party was entirely by accident. Once, when Thunder Dragon Taoist was Cultivating, he accidentally encountered some mishaps, which caused his body to be severely injured and his Foundation to be damaged! Coincidentally, he happened to have medicinal herbs in his possession that were useful to Thunder Dragon Taoist, so he generously gave them to him, gaining his favor!
This Thunder Dragon Taoist quite appreciated his personality and felt like old friends at first sight, so they became sworn brothers. Since Thunder Dragon Taoist was older, he became his elder brother!
This time, when this matter arose, he thought of Thunder Dragon Taoist immediately! Besides that, to ensure his bride-snatching went smoothly, he also called upon the people of the White Family in Yong Province!
The White Family was the hegemon of Yong Province, and the overall strength of the Family was no weaker than the Gu Family. The old patriarch of the White Family had suffered a hidden injury when he was young and had been tormented by it ever since he grew old. It just so happened that he possessed a secret technique that could treat this hidden injury, so he had forged a deep friendship with the White Family!
The other party owed him a favor and had promised that if he had any matters in the future, he could give them a word, and the White Family would do their utmost!
As for his other sworn brother, Mo Tianyun, his identity was a bit special. Although his strength had not reached the Great Saint Realm, he was the Saint of the Nine Profound Holy Land, and his status was very prestigious!
The Nine Profound Holy Land was much stronger than the Gu Family in terms of both strength and status, and there was even a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert guarding the Holy Land, making its status supreme!
If his sworn brother stood up for him, it would certainly add significant weight to his side!
"Yes! This subordinate will go handle it immediately!"
Hearing Ye Chen's instructions, the middle-aged man in black immediately cupped his hands and bowed to him, replying respectfully! Then, his figure merged into the night and disappeared from the spot!
After watching his subordinate disappear, Ye Chen came to the window, then looked up at the bright moon in the sky, murmuring to himself, "Xian'er, no matter what, I will not let you marry anyone else. You can only be mine!"
"Not necessarily; you could also be mine!"
Qin Xiao looked at Ye Chen's affectionate appearance and, upon hearing this sentence from him, muttered in his heart.
What Ye Chen did not know was that the scene he had just enacted had been projected entirely by Qin Xiao using the Mirror Image Technique, and it was all being watched by Qin Xiao and Qianren Hongchen!
"Hongchen, it seems your precious disciple has quite extensive connections. Even without us stepping in, he still has a great chance of snatching a bride!"
Qin Xiao held Qianren Hongchen's slender waist, sitting on the bed, and said with a smile!
"I didn't expect that Xiao Chen would know so many people!"
Qianren Hongchen had also seen the entire scene just now, and a trace of shock had passed through her heart!
Regarding her disciple going to snatch a bride, she was strongly against it, because the Gu Family was not just some random group; they were powerful and simply not comparable to her Red Dust Dao Palace, so she was worried!
However, she knew Ye Chen's temper and knew that since he had decided, he certainly wouldn't change his mind and would go all the way to the end! So, she didn't try to persuade him further!
But she still decided to secretly follow him, no matter what, she had to protect Ye Chen!
But now it seemed her worries were superfluous. Her disciple's connections were even stronger than she had imagined! If these people took action, even the Gu Family would treat it seriously. Even if the bride-snatching didn't succeed in the end, Ye Chen would still not be in any life-threatening danger!
