The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2294 - 2291: Seriously Ill

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged in the dark void.

Behind him, the Dark Divine Palace representing the Heavenly God Temple had completely dissolved into nothingness, becoming a thing of the past.

Ye Xuan slightly hunched his body, his right hand absent-mindedly fiddling with his fingers in the void, his left elbow resting on his knee, holding his chin, eyes closed, face calm.

It seemed he was pondering something.

He was reflecting on what he saw after merging with the Emperor Soul, and weighing it against the game that enveloped the ancient eras.

"Was my return a move in her game?"

Ye Xuan’s right hand halted.

He slowly opened his eyes.

His ink-black eyes shone with a deep, mysterious light.

"You clearly know of my existence, yet did not come to find me, but intentionally revealed your whereabouts..."

Ye Xuan mused to himself in the void.

"Is the Myriad World Bronze Coffin something you took?"

Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed slowly.

The ’you’ and ’her’ he referred to was the same person—the Emperor Burial Lord.

The one who had subjected him to endless suffering and torment, whom he loathed profoundly.

That hatred was etched into his bones.

Every painful perseverance only deepened his grudge against the Emperor Burial Lord.

Yet Ye Xuan had meticulously contemplated all of this.

Why did the Emperor Burial Lord choose to seize his soul?

Back then, when he was taken, he was only eleven, not even a youth.

And amidst his reflections after returning, his only conjecture was the Taoist Body.

The issue lay with one point.

Did the Emperor Burial Lord know that his true form was the Taoist Body?

This uncertainty Ye Xuan could not discern.

Yet, with the gradual recovery of his strength and the answers he had obtained, Ye Xuan found it difficult to gauge the ’enemy’s’ stance.

The Myriad World Bronze Coffin entangled too many secrets.

It even surpassed the ancient scheme.

Thinking back and forth.

Perhaps only the Emperor Burial Lord had the power to take that object.

But all the answers require him to take a trip to the Emperor’s Burial Ground.

Additionally, figures like the Lie Tian Emperor, Sword Emperor Xuanyuan, and War Demon Hong Yuan also needed him to collect their remains.

No matter the inherent fear of that place.

Ultimately, he must go there.

"Not too long..."

Ye Xuan clapped his hands, then slowly rose, a subtle mocking smile on his face.

Before that, focus on the Luotian Grand Jiao first.

It’s just unknown how many eyes are watching him as he seizes control of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds and becomes Emperor through the Luotian Grand Jiao...

No matter.

Even the Hong Yao Immortal Emperor, last of the Immortal Ancient Immortal Emperors, was grasped by him.

Other individuals are inconsequential.

Speaking of which, he somewhat misses Youwei.

Perhaps he should say something that day.

Just uncertain about what to say.

After all, Ye Xuan also has his obsessions.

If his father and mother are truly from the Dou Tian Divine Domain, how should he feel?

Yet the more it’s like this.

The more he feels the underlying game board is somewhat beyond control.

This feeling isn’t pleasant.

But Ye Xuan enjoys the sensation of gradually seizing sovereignty.

Just like how he once freed himself step by step from the Emperor Burial Lord’s manipulation.

As Ye Xuan took a step, he had already returned to the Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven.

Xu Dengxian had already sorted things out, including dealing with those hidden figures in other grotto heavens.

This time, it seems no one can stop the offering of the Luotian Grand Jiao.

The Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth will encompass All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, it’s merely a matter of time.

Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven.

A relatively secluded cave residence.

Inscribed as Yunlu Mountain Sword Absolute Cave.

It was founded by the Daoist Sword Emperor of high seniority and great renown in Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven.

Ordinary people could not come to this cave residence.

Even Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven’s current Sect Leader True Person cannot come here freely.

Must first receive consent from two ancient elders in Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven.

Of course.

To Ye Xuan, it was of no consequence.

Just the backyard garden of his own house.

Only...

As he walked into this Sword Absolute Cave, Ye Xuan tilted his head, looking curiously at the jade person lying on the bed.

Enveloped by Mysterious Light, skin as smooth as cream.

The perfect silhouette lay on the bed at this moment.

A head of white hair cascaded like a waterfall.

When Ye Xuan entered the cave, the woman slowly turned her head, her eyes like gemstones gazing at Ye Xuan: "You’ve come?"

Ye Xuan: "?"

The woman sat up against her side, patting beside her, calmly saying: "Come and rest with the old man."

Ye Xuan paused for two seconds, looking at this being known as Daoist’s longest-living ancestor, then slowly voiced: "Have you lived too long and spiraled into madness?"

Did this woman have a screw loose?

Last time at Pengxuan Cave Heaven, he almost couldn’t withstand this fellow’s peculiar mindset.

Now what’s the trouble again?

The woman was none other than Daoist’s longest-living person on the Water Jade Bed in Pengxuan Cave Heaven!

Originally occupying Ye Xuan’s bed, forcing Ye Xuan to go to Mystic Cave Grotto Heaven.

Now it’s better.

Ye Xuan went out once.

Upon returning, this sister occupied his bed again.

Interesting, interesting.

Truly interesting.

Seeing the woman silent, Ye Xuan chuckled: "You said before the Luotian Grand Jiao is fully arranged, you won’t awaken, otherwise it would affect the Daoist’s fortune. Now this is no longer a problem?"

The woman stared directly at Ye Xuan, calmly said: "It indeed affects it, but under the old man’s calculations, the biggest factor affecting the Luotian Grand Jiao has been eradicated by you, so awakening or not makes no difference, besides..."

The woman suddenly laughed: "That was merely the old man’s excuse to avoid disturbances from those who lack sense."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan squinted his eyes, mocked: "Lived to this age and can’t even lie properly?"

The woman was confused: "Who lied?"

Ye Xuan crossed his arms, calmly said: "With your realm, if you truly want to sleep, who can disturb you?"

"Tell me, what’s your purpose for seeking me?"

Ye Xuan’s tone turned extremely cold.

On hearing this, the woman stopped feigning ignorance, smiling slightly: "Not worthy of being the Uniquely Across Eras Undying Night Emperor, you are truly clever."

Ye Xuan was long immune to such low-level flattery, calmly said: "You’re mocking me."

The woman shook her head: "Genuine praise."

Seeing Ye Xuan unimpressed, the woman grimaced: "Looks like old man’s miscalculation, pre-conversation politeness is meaningless."

Ye Xuan watched the woman, suddenly gaining some insight.

This person, though having lived long and able to discern many causalities, seems to rely more on... ’calculation’ for many things?

Could that be why she speaks so immaturely?

Doesn’t quite fit.

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed to a slit: "You better speak plainly, otherwise if we fight later, it’s bad for everyone."

The woman slowly stood from the bed, a grand Daoist robe enveloping her perfect form.

Her jade feet moved.

Clouds billowed underfoot.

She smiled slightly.

Like a Nine Heavens Mysterious Goddess descending to the mortal realm.

"Actually..."

"Just wanted to confirm."
