Chapter: 117

The space twisted, and three people appeared within Xiao Lie's courtyard.

"Yun Che?" Xiao Lie, who was enjoying his life of salted fish lying beside the pond with Canghai, was startled. He looked at sacred Xuanyuan Jue and unconscious Xuanyuan Wendao confusedly and inquired, "Who are they?"

"He is the father of Feng'er." Yun Che pointed towards Xuanyuan Jue before throwing Wendao towards Xiao Lie. "And he is the one who killed your son. I especially brought him here so you can deal with him. Don't worry about him attacking. I already crippled him."

Xiao Lei's body trembled. He hurriedly stood up, same with Canghai, and glared towards the unconscious Wendao with unhidden killing intent and anger.

"Che'er, how did you catch them?" Canghai curiously asked before his eyes widened. "Don't tell me, did you attack the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region all alone? Che'er! Even if it's you, that's dangerous!"

"Geez, gramps, calm down." Yun Che rolled his eyes before shrugging and further explaining. "These guys wanted to capture Cang Yue to drag me and you out, so they attacked the capital city. Since I already knew it, I decided to catch them."

"Oh, so that's the case." Canghai nodded before he glared towards Xuanyuan Jue. "So? Did you bring them here so that your grandfathers can have fun torturing them?"

Xuanyuan Jue shuddered and took a step backward. Canghai looked really scary right now.

"Do you want your daughter-in-law to hate you, gramps? Keep your sadistic pleasure to yourself… or for people unrelated to us. Stop scarring my father-in-law. Look at him! So pale! If not for my insurance, he might have pissed himself by now."

"..." Xuanyuan Jue.

"Hahaha, I was joking. Of course, I wouldn't want to kill the father of my grandson's woman." Canghai laughed before looking towards Wendao, who seemed to be regaining his consciousness. "Can't say the same thing about him, though. He is the son of Wentian, right? His face looks punchable."

Yun Che shrugged his shoulders.

"Can't agree more with that. Do whatever you want. I really don't care if he lives or dies."

"That's great, then." Canghai smiled before he looked at Xiao Lie and found out that he was still glaring at Wendao with a murderous look. He walked closer to Xiao Lie and patted him on the shoulder. "Well, old man Lie, don't let emotions take over your sanity. Our grandson has spent extra effort in bringing him to you, don't kill him instantly."

Xiao Lie closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm down his emotions before nodding.

"You are right, Old man Canghai." He looked towards Yun Che and smiled. "Che'er, can you leave him to us?"

"No problem." Yun Che nodded.

He turned around and patted Xuanyuan Jue's shoulder before smiling.

"Let's go, father-in-law. I will take you to meet your daughter."

…

Silence dominated the room as Yun Che sat with a smile on his face, with Yufeng sitting beside him with an extremely awkward expression, not daring to look up at the old man sitting in front of her.

She held her hands tightly over her lap, and her head was lowered as she played with her fingers, waiting for her father's response.

"You are saying… You fell in love with your junior..." Xuanyuan Jue's face cringed, but he soon returned to normal, once again glaring daggers at his daughter and continued. "And now you both are in a relationship with each other?"

At least, that is what Yufeng told Xuanyuan. She thought there was no need to go too deep into what had transpired within these two months. She found it unnecessary. And since she didn't bother explaining it, Yun Che also did not say anything additional, bringing them to their current situation.

Xuanyuan Jue stared at her daughter's nervous expression before a long sigh left his lips.

"Why are you so nervous now? It's not like this is the first time you have done something outrageous. Humph. When you left everything and ran away with that Ling boy, you didn't care what we thought. Why are you acting all shy and awkward today?"

Yufeng embarrassingly smiled.

"But you should be aware that the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region has issued an arrest warrant for... your lover, his grandfather, and anyone related to them." Xuanyuan Jue's expression turned serious as he stared at his daughter worriedly and said, "Even if it's me, I cannot do anything regarding this matter. The relationship between your lover's grandfather and the Sacred Grounds is extremely bad... more so after your lover basically killed the son of the Sword Master."

"About that..." Yufeng stared at her father before looking towards Yun Che, who returned her a nod. She looked back at her father and said with a serious expression, "Father, I will be taking over as the new Sect Master of Mighty Heavenly Sword Region!"

"..." Silence descended before Xuanyuan Jue looked between Yun Che and Yufeng before he finally asked, his voice filled with bafflement. "Huh? I think I am getting old and didn't hear it clearly... what did you say again?"

"She said she will be becoming the next Sect Master of Mighty Heavenly Sword Region." With the same smile, Yun Che answered.

Finally, not being able to take it, Xuanyuan Jue stood up and glared at Yun Che and Yufeng like looking at two idiots.

"Have you guys lost your mind? Do you really think it is so easy to take over the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region? If it was that easy, it wouldn't have been called one of the Sacred Grounds!"

"Calm your bear down, father-in-law, you are too excited right now." Not caring about Xuanyuan Jue's outrage, Yun Che waved his hand. "Others couldn't do it, doesn't mean I cannot either. It's just a matter of time."

"I believe in him too, Father."

"You both..." Xuanyuan Jue took a deep breath before looking at his daughter with worry evident in his eyes. "Listen, I wouldn't say that Yun Che is weak, he is not, maybe even as strong as the Sect Master... But fighting a single peak Sovereign Profound Realm is way different than fighting with the Sacred Grounds. Also, let's say he does defeat the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, what about other Sacred Grounds then? Do you think they will sit still watching another Sacred Ground being destroyed? No, they will definitely use this chance to get as much as they can get. Is he confident in fighting all Sacred Grounds at once?"

Yufeng, hearing her father, turned to look towards Yun Che.

"I can."

Hearing his confirmation, Yufeng nodded before turning her head back to her father, who looked at her with a dumbfounded expression.

After a long time, he finally let out a loud sigh before his body fell on the couch. His expression blank, he stared at the ceiling with a blank gaze before suddenly starting to chuckle.

"I think I'm going mad, hahaha..."

"I think we broke your father, Feng'er. You won't be mad at me, right?" Yun Che had a weird expression as he stared at Xuanyuan Jue, who was still laughing and mumbling to himself.

Yufeng simply shook her head and smiled.

"He is just impressed by your demeanor, Husband."

"Oh, that's so! Makes sense then."

Yufeng was a woman who, if she chose a man, would give her all to him. It was the same with Yuefeng and now with Yun Che.

Now she had decided to give her all to him and him alone.

"By the way, it seems like your training is going well. You are already in the middle of the Emperor Profound Realm."

Yufeng nodded before a dangerous glint passed through her eyes.

"Though the concentration of Profound Energy has decreased a lot, it should be possible for me to enter the Tyrant Profound Realm in another month or so."

Due to the Profound Gathering Formation, a concentrated zone had formed at the core of the formation due to the Profound Energy of miles of area around the Floating Cloud City, so Yun Che had Lingxi and Yufeng train there.

If they could absorb all that energy before it dispersed once again, it would benefit them a lot. This made Yun Che happy. After all, he was happy that his girls were becoming self-sufficient. Having a damsel in distress was cool and all, but that shit definitely didn't work in a cultivation world where being weak was considered a sin itself.

"That's good." Yun Che nodded and played with Yufeng's hair with a weird smile on his face, both completely ignoring the madman laughing in the background. "Then once you enter the Tyrant Profound Realm, we will initiate our attack on the Sacred Grounds then. This place isn't nourished enough to give birth to a Sovereign Profound Realm cultivator, even with the formation."

A devilish smirk formed over his face as he added, "Eating a Sacred Ground doesn't sound like a bad start."
