Chapter 773: (The Release of the Mighty Eagle)
Chapter 773 (The Release of the Mighty Eagle)
'It's as if I want to charge over right now and take everyone's heads, hang them at the city gate as a demonstration. This is the fate that awaits those who provoke my Supreme Spirit Sect!'
Both sides are advancing towards the Voidless Empire. Judging by the speed, the people from the Divine Steppes should be the first to arrive, as they are much closer. However, the Supreme Spirit has warships—ten warships carrying two hundred thousand disciples—are also headed towards the Voidless Empire!
This scale is much stronger than that of the Divine Steppes! Even the weakest disciples possess the strength of combatants.
However, at this moment, Ye Hua is engaged in a secret affair with his younger sister-in-law. Lately, he has grown fond of this feeling, finding it exhilarating.
"Brother-in-law, are you comfortable~?" Qing Yutong asked in a coquettish manner, gently caressing Ye Hua's abdominal muscles. It's truly addictive; she wonders if her sister has ever touched him like this.
Ye Hua patted Qing Yutong's perky buttocks, saying, "Yutong, your skills are getting better."
"Yutong just wants to make Brother-in-law happy."
"Haha, Yutong's the favourite of this deity." Ye Hua felt at ease; the service of his sister-in-law is particularly enjoyable, surpassing what Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi can provide.
Qing Yutong pouted and said, "Brother-in-law, will you make Yutong feel comfortable too~?"
Ye Hua raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "How do you want me to comfort you?"
"Brother-in-law~ You're teasing Yutong again, you know~" Qing Yutong blushed, feeling quite shy.
"Yutong, then ask me."
"Brother-in-law~ You're so naughty~" Qing Yutong playfully punched his chest, delighting Ye Hua. Qing Yutong truly exudes a unique charm, something that Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi lack.
Ye Hua's fingertip gently traced Qing Yutong's vermilion lips as he curiously asked, "Yutong, what if your sister discovers our relationship?"
"Then you're in trouble, Brother-in-law."
Ye Hua: "..."
"I'll just say that Brother-in-law forced Yutong... Yutong couldn't resist. Wah~"
Ye Hua can't resist playfully spanking her raised buttocks. "Yutong, you've become bold."
"Sob sob~ Brother-in-law~ It hurts~"
"You know it hurts. Reflect on it deeply. I'll go check on the children." Ye Hua sat up and stretched his arms.
Qing Yutong pouted, stood up and exposed her beautiful figure in the air. She carefully dressed Ye Hua.
"Brother-in-law, let's make a deal. Next time, you must make Yutong feel comfortable."
Ye Hua pinched Qing Yutong's little cheek. "Alright, next time I'll make you feel comfortable."
"Really?" Qing Yutong was initially joking but didn't expect Brother-in-law to agree.
"Hehe, when has this deity ever lied?"
Qing Yutong: "..."
Brother-in-law is being pretentious again, deceiving people every day.
Entering the children's palace, Ye Hua saw Ye Shen and Ye Liu engaging in their daily sparring. The two little ones are becoming increasingly formidable. Word has it that they're even researching new martial techniques and testing them out.
As for Ah Li and Ye Yan, they're out of the palace every day, playing outside. They have such contrasting personalities.
However, Ye Hua doesn't demand Ah Li and Ye Yan to be diligent. After all, they're still children; play is their main focus. They'll naturally become more motivated and diligent as they grow.
"Daddy."
"Daddy."
Seeing their father, the two little ones stopped and called him "Daddy" when no one else was around, but referred to him as "Father Emperor" in the presence of outsiders.
Ye Hua nodded and opened his arms.
Ye Shen stood still, not moving, while Ye Liu happily rushed into her father's embrace and gently pressed a kiss on his cheek.
"Did Liu'er and big brother discuss any new martial techniques today?" Ye Hua held his daughter in his arms, sitting in a nearby pavilion.
Ye Liu chuckled softly and said, "Dad, brother and I have been constantly thinking, and we should be able to develop a powerful martial technique."
"You two are doing well. It's rare for me to worry about you," Ye Hua praised them verbally.
Standing beside them, Ye Shen also showed a pleased smile. Getting praised by their father was a form of recognition, indicating that their efforts hadn't been in vain.
Upon hearing this, Ye Liu was also delighted. She gave her father another kiss and then snuggled up in his arms.
"In a while, you both will have a long-term task," Ye Hua said calmly. This idea had been lingering in his mind. On one hand, he wanted to train their independent abilities, and on the other hand, he wanted them to have their own space for thought. However, he wasn't sure about Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi's opinions.
Because this was a long-term task, it might be a decade before they saw their children again.
To be honest, Ye Hua found it difficult, but his children were grown up now. Just like releasing a mighty eagle, they needed to be set free. Always sticking by his side wouldn't help them grow into independent individuals.
"Dad, is this true?" Ye Shen's eyes sparkled with excitement. It seemed he had been hoping for this.
Ye Hua nodded.
"Dad, what kind of task is it?" Ye Liu curiously asked. Dad had finally given them a task, which meant they were growing up too.
Ye Hua said solemnly, "This task will take a while. You will have to stay outside for a long time. Perhaps when we meet again, you'll have grown taller than me."
Upon hearing their father's words, the two little ones hesitated for a moment before their excited expressions returned.
Ye Liu held onto her father tightly, seemingly reluctant, while Ye Shen also showed reluctance. He even went to the side and hugged his father's arm.
Seeing his son and daughter's reluctance, Ye Hua let out a deep sigh.
"You're both good children, but you'll have your own paths to follow. I hope you'll become independent and strong! Understand?"
Ye Shen and Ye Liu took a deep breath, then spoke in unison, "Dad, we understand. We accept your task!"
Ye Hua patted the heads of the little ones. "Dad still needs to get your mother's approval, otherwise, she might ignore me."
The two little ones fell silent, seeming a bit heavy-hearted.
Ye Hua stood up. "Think it over carefully. If not, you can leave in a few years. Spend some quality time with your mother."
"Okay, Dad, we understand."
Ye Hua smiled contentedly and then left the children's palace.
Watching his father leave, Ye Liu said slowly, "Brother, let's go spend time with Mom."
"Yeah." The two little ones also realised that they had been training every day and hadn't spent much time with their mother. If they were really going to leave, they didn't want to leave their mother.
So, while they still had time, they decided to seize the opportunity to be with their mother.
Walking through the palace, Ye Hua furrowed his brows slightly. Letting all of his children go was going to make Qing Ya and Baizhi furious, for sure. After all, the Sapphire Continent wasn't a place for mere play. The Supreme had fallen here before; his children might not be as lucky.
But this was also for their mental growth. He had to be resolute about this!
Unconsciously, Ye Hua passed by the palace where Mu Ran lived. He decided to enter and see what was going on.
