Supreme Sword God

Chapter 645: Chapter 644: Farewell to Third Uncle, Youth Before the Grave

In the mountain forest.

Beside a simple small wooden cabin.

Ye Zhenming looked anxious and uneasy.

”Dean Yu, what exactly happened? Why was the commotion so big just now? Is it an enemy coming to seek revenge? If that’s the case, Dean Yu, please give me a swift end; I can’t be taken away, I can’t be Chen’Er’s weakness!”

Yu Sheng looked at Ye Zhenming and said, ”Rest assured, Ye Chen is here; he was the one fighting just now. Your nephew, he’s really something. Do you know how strong he is now?”

”Chen’Er is here... Dean Yu, don’t stay here protecting me, go help Chen’Er quickly...”

”Uh... well, I’m actually not qualified to interfere in Ye Chen’s battles now. He’s capable of taking down legendary figures at will!” Yu Sheng said with an embarrassed expression.

What a shame!

Ye Chen, just a twenty-year-old youngster, is already so formidable. I, the dignified dean of Luofeng Martial Arts Academy, am not even a legendary figure yet!

Ye Zhenming was taken aback after hearing this.

Chen’Er is that formidable now?

He can kill legendary figures at will?

Yu Sheng smiled and said, ”So there’s no need to worry about him. He’ll be here shortly.”

At that moment.

A somewhat choked voice arose.

”Third uncle!”

Ye Zhenming suddenly raised his head.

When he saw Ye Chen not far away, he immediately stood up, rushed forward, and without a word, gave him a hug that belonged to a Ye Family man!

Back then.

When Ye Chen went to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, at the ancestral graves of the Ye Family, as he parted ways with Ye Chen, it was this kind of hug.

Later.

When Ye Chen was about to leave the Great Zhou Dynasty, after arranging a place for Ye Zhenming, it was the same kind of hug during their separation.

”Good, good, good!”

”It’s good that you’re back.”

”If big brother and my Ye Clan members knew, they would definitely be happy for you, proud because of you!”

......

A moment later.

Ye Chen came out from the cabin.

”Dean Yu, thank you for taking care of my third uncle during this time.”

Earlier, Ye Chen was alone with Ye Zhenming inside, secretly checking his condition.

Although Ye Zhenming had given up on cultivation, he had a good physical foundation, undoubtedly due to Yu Sheng’s help as an Alchemist.

And now.

Ye Zhenming was sleeping in the cabin.

Ye Chen introduced a large amount of ancient clan essence into his body to continue improving his constitution.

If third uncle wanted to cultivate again, it would be much easier to do so, and as for cultivation techniques, Ye Chen could provide the best.

If third uncle didn’t want to cultivate, then it would be to prolong his life!

The ancient clan essence, as valuable as it is, is not more important than my family.

”Ye Chen, there’s no need to be polite. You entrusted your third uncle to me, so I can’t betray your trust. Also, the future belongs to you young people. My chubby son wants to go explore with you, and I hope you can take care of him as well.”

”Brother Fatty and I share a life-and-death bond; I will do my utmost to ensure Brother Fatty’s safety,” Ye Chen said solemnly.

The saying goes, when one person attains the Tao, even their pets ascend to heaven. That’s what it means.

When you become strong, you can’t just ignore the people around you!

Of course, there is selective help involved.

If Fatty lacks talent, then I can only provide him with abundant resources for a comfortable life within the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But Fatty has great talent, being an Earth Seal Spirit Master with Six Groups of Spirit Patterns, and he has an innate understanding of Alchemy, with great potential!

If not for this, I wouldn’t want Fatty to follow me on adventures!

”Dean Yu has some understanding of matters in Cangzhou, so I suppose you must be familiar with Mu Zhengxiong, the greatest Alchemist in Cangzhou?”

Yu Sheng nodded and said, ”The name of Alchemist Mu is renowned!”

Ye Chen said, ”I plan to have Brother Fatty study Alchemy under Mu Zhengxiong!”

Fearing that Yu Sheng would still worry, he directly gave him reassurance.

Mu Zhengxiong was Mu Qingqing’s grandfather, and since Mu Qingqing didn’t learn Alchemy, Mu Zhengxiong had no heir yet. Sending Fatty over was perfect!

Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng’s entire body shook with excitement. It would be a great opportunity if his grandson could become a disciple of Mu Zhengxiong.

After calming down, Yu Sheng remembered an important thing and said, ”Ye Chen, those people just now...”

Ye Chen said, ”They merely stumbled upon this place by accident, but indeed, they came for me. Not one was left; they were all killed, rest assured. Their backers don’t even know they came to the Great Zhou Dynasty, so the trouble won’t spread.”

A guy from the Situ family was merely gathering a group of ten to investigate my background and didn’t report back to the Situ family.

I’ll return to Celestial Cyan City; if I encounter anyone from the Qi Family, I’ll throw the power of the contract at Qi Shengjing. If the Situ family wants to settle scores, they can find Qi Shengjing!

That evening.

Ye Zhenming woke up.

He felt as if waking from a dream, as if he was reborn.

No need to guess, he knew it was Ye Chen’s doing.

”Chen’Er, is my cultivation potential big now?” Ye Zhenming asked.

”It’s alright, you can at least reach the Heaven-Reaching Realm!” Ye Chen said with a smile, ”Third uncle...”

Before Ye Chen could finish, Ye Zhenming said, ”Chen’Er, I’m going to cultivate, become strong. I can’t keep letting you protect me!”

Ye Chen nodded and said, ”Alright, the cultivation techniques, martial arts, and resources are all in this Storage Ring.”

Saying this, he handed over a Storage Ring.

When Ye Zhenming checked the Storage Ring, he was completely stunned.

Ye Chen continued, ”Third uncle, I plan to send you to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, then you’ll go with my teacher to Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom.”

Ye Zhenming wasn’t entirely in the dark now; Yu Sheng visited him from time to time and had mentioned Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom.

”Chen’Er, the Moon God from Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom let Li Jushan go last time...”

Ye Chen: ”...Don’t worry about the Moon God, Third uncle. She... in terms of seniority, she has to call you Third uncle. Once you get to Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom, if there’s a problem, just let her handle it. If she doesn’t handle it actively, I’ll beat her up next time!”

Ye Zhenming was dumbfounded!

The Moon God of Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom has to call me Third uncle?

”Chen’Er, you and the Moon God...”

”She’s my wife!” Ye Chen grinned widely.

Ye Zhenming remained stunned for a while, and then laughed heartily and said, ”Chen’Er, it’s just you and me in the Ye Family now, you must quickly expand the family. By the way, what about that girl from the Hua Family? She’s also good!”

”She also has to call you Third uncle; Patriarch Hua and Lady Hua have both agreed!”

Ye Zhenming was even more delighted, the more he married, the better; the Ye Family is sparse now, they need to have many children!

Afterward, the uncle and nephew went together to pay homage to the Ye Family clan members.

At the time, the situation was urgent, so Ye Chen entrusted Yu Sheng with the task, not only hiding Third uncle but also relocating all of Ye Family’s ancestral graves.

”Chen’Er, you stay here to talk with your father; I’ll wait outside,” Ye Zhenming patted Ye Chen’s shoulder and then left.

Ye Chen knelt before his father’s grave.

”Father, Chen’Er has been unfilial, unable to visit you often,” Ye Chen’s voice was choked, the image of fatherly love and filial piety seemed just like yesterday.

The whole night.

Ye Chen kneeled in front of the grave, telling about his experiences.

There was confusion, frustration, and also fear... none of these were ever shown in front of anyone else.

No matter how decisive and radiant he appeared outside, he was still just a child in front of his father.

Unknowingly, as dawn broke.

Ye Chen said, ”Father, I’ve almost figured out the matter concerning mother. Next time, I’ll definitely bring her to see you!”
