The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 723 - 721: The Meeting
Chapter 723: Chapter 721: The Meeting
Following the successful testing of the Vitality-Depleting Pill.
In the days that followed, Ye Chenfeng assisted Uncle Wang in regaining his strength and helped those Han Sect disciples who had been locked in the dungeon to recover their senses. Having completed these tasks, Ye Chenfeng was ready to leave the Han Sect.
In fact, two days earlier, Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue had already discussed it. Currently, Han Chuxue still had four years to live, and the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass had not yet reached its maturity. Therefore, Ye Chenfeng planned to accompany his parents back to the Secular World and afterward return to the Ancient Martial World to join one of the top-level forces.
Han Chuxue, of course, intended to accompany Ye Chenfeng back to the Secular World. She did not want to be away from him for a moment. Now that the effects of the Death-Defying Technique in her body had worn off, her strength had fallen precipitously from Heaven Rank High Grade to Earth Rank Lower Grade. With regard to the position of Sect Leader of the Han Sect, Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue decided, after consultation, to nominate Uncle Wang as the current Sect Leader of the Han Sect.
In the grand hall of the Han Sect.
Ye Chenfeng, Han Chuxue, Sun Hengfei, Sun Xiaoli, Uncle Wang, and members of the Wing Guard Team were all present. Ye Chenfeng spoke directly, "Uncle Wang, Chu Xue and I are leaving the Han Sect. After careful consideration, we have decided to appoint you as the Sect Leader of the Han Sect."
Originally, Uncle Wang did not know why Ye Chenfeng had summoned him to the grand hall. Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, he immediately responded with excitement, "Young Master Ye, Miss, this is absolutely impossible! How could an old man like me be worthy to be the Sect Leader of the Han Sect? Even if Miss does not wish to be Sect Leader, Young Master Ye, you could take up the position! I believe everyone in the Han Sect would support that."
With a gentle voice, Han Chuxue said, "Uncle Wang, there’s no one more suitable than you to be the Sect Leader of the Han Sect. You have devoted so much to the sect; please, no more refusals. Besides, I want to go to the Secular World with Chenfeng to visit his family, so we must leave the Han Sect today."
"Uncle Wang, don’t hesitate any longer. Chu Xue is right. We are both leaving the Han Sect today, so it must have someone to manage it. Don’t you want to contribute to the Han Sect?" Ye Chenfeng added.
Uncle Wang hurriedly shook his head and said, "Young Master Ye, of course, I am willing to go through fire and water for the Han Sect, but..."
Ye Chenfeng immediately interrupted Uncle Wang, "There are no buts. Since you are willing to devote yourself to the Han Sect, then the position of Sect Leader should be yours to take."
After hearing the firm tones of Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue, Uncle Wang knew he could no longer refuse. He sighed and said, "Young Master Ye, Miss, I must lay it out clearly beforehand. I will only be taking charge of the Han Sect temporarily until the Miss and Young Master Ye return from the Ancient Martial World. Then, I will hand over the position of Sect Leader back to you."
"Alright, alright, as you wish!" Ye Chenfeng said offhandedly. As long as Uncle Wang agreed to take on the role of Sect Leader of the Han Sect for now, they could discuss future matters later.
"Young Master Ye, Miss, are you sure you don’t want to stay in the Han Sect for a few more days?" Uncle Wang asked with reluctance.
"Uncle Wang, there will be plenty of time in the future. I still have many matters to deal with, so I must go today," Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said.
"Alright then! But, Young Master Ye, Miss, you should at least stay in the Han Sect for lunch before you go. You can at least agree to this old man’s request, right?" Uncle Wang asked.
Therefore, Ye Chenfeng, Han Chuxue, Sun Hengfei, and others stayed in the Han Sect for lunch. After the meal, Ye Chenfeng told Sun Hengfei, Sun Xiaoli, and the members of the Wing Guard Team to leave first, while he accompanied Han Chuxue to a grave at the back mountain of the Han Sect. The grave was that of Han Chuxue’s parents.
As they were about to leave the Han Sect and unsure of when they would return, Han Chuxue wanted to visit her parents’ graves before departing. She knelt on the ground, kowtowed twice to their graves, and said, "Dad, Mom, Chu Xue has avenged you. Now you can rest in peace. I am very happy now, so please rest assured!"
Ye Chenfeng also kowtowed twice towards the tombstone and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, although we have never met, I will take good care of Chu Xue in the future and ensure she never suffers any grievances."
After paying their respects to Han Chuxue’s parents, Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue left the Han Sect. They boarded a carriage that was prepared in advance. Since there was no urgency now, Ye Chenfeng did not need to run by himself. Instead, he sat in the carriage, holding Han Chuxue in his arms, enjoying the moment of peace and warmth.
...
Sun Hengfei, Sun Xiaoli, and members of the Wing Guard Team had returned to the Zhen Tian Sect’s Training Ground before Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue. Moreover, Sun Hengfei had already informed Sun Boyi, Sun Meiqin, and Ye Donghua of Han Chuxue’s situation, so they were all waiting on the Training Ground for Ye Chenfeng’s return. When they saw a carriage in the distance approaching, Sun Meiqin showed a radiant smile and said, "It must be Chenfeng and the others coming back."
How could Sun Meiqin not be happy? She was about to meet her daughter-in-law, and in her heart, she was eagerly looking forward to embracing her grandchild soon.
Inside a carriage not far from the Zhen Tian Sect, as they got closer to their destination, Han Chuxue began to feel nervous. After all, this was her first time meeting Ye Chenfeng’s parents, and it was natural for her to feel a bit anxious. She asked Ye Chenfeng, "Chenfeng, will your parents like me? How do I look right now?" freewebnσvel.cѳm
Ye Chenfeng pinched Han Chuxue’s tender nose and said, "Chu Xue, don’t worry, you look great right now. Besides, being nervous is pointless; an ugly bride will have to meet her in-laws sooner or later."
Han Chuxue gave Ye Chenfeng an annoyed look and said, "Chenfeng, you are still teasing me at a time like this."
"Alright, alright, I was wrong; it should be a beautiful bride will eventually have to meet her in-laws." While saying this, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but caress Han Chuxue’s chest, which annoyed her enough to gnash her teeth. Just as she was about to retort, their carriage arrived at the Zhen Tian Sect’s Training Ground, and Ye Chenfeng got out, pulling Han Chuxue by the hand.
When Sun Meiqin saw her son and daughter-in-law get off the carriage, she was the first to walk up and warmly take Han Chuxue’s arm as if they already knew each other and said with a smile, "You must be Chu Xue, right? Such a spirited beauty! Chenfeng is so lucky to have found a beauty like you; it’s really a blessing from a past life! If this kid Chenfeng dares to bully you in the future, make sure to tell me so I can deal with him."
Made even shyer by Sun Meiqin’s enthusiasm, yet reassured by her words, Han Chuxue pursed her lips and softly called out, "Mom!"
"Yes, good child, we’re family now. There’s no need to stand on ceremony with me," Sun Meiqin was very pleased with her daughter-in-law Han Chuxue.
Seeing Sun Meiqin and Han Chuxue getting along so well, Ye Chenfeng pretended to be depressed and said, "Mom, now that you have a daughter-in-law, do you not want your son anymore?"
With her arm still linked with Han Chuxue’s, Sun Meiqin said, "Chenfeng, I just like Chu Xue, okay? Chu Xue can give me a big fat grandson; can you do that?"
Ye Chenfeng replied innocently, "Mom, that’s not something you should say! Without us men, you women can’t have children either."
"Chenfeng, you child, how can you say such an embarrassing thing? You’re exactly like your dad when he was young. No wonder even a beautiful girl like Chu Xue was tricked by you," Sun Meiqin said with her cheeks slightly red.
Ye Donghua on the side was even more frustrated; he had been inadvertently shot while lying down!
Then, with Ye Chenfeng’s introductions, Han Chuxue met Sun Boyi, Sun Yang’an, Ye Donghua, and others one after another, following Ye Chenfeng’s lead and calling them grandfather-in-law, grandfather, dad..., addressing all the elders present one by one.
As everyone walked towards the Zhen Tian Sect’s grand hall, Ye Donghua deliberately lagged behind two steps and whispered in Ye Chenfeng’s ear, "Chenfeng, you certainly have quite the luck with ladies; this girl is as beautiful as your mom was back in the day."
Ye Chenfeng thought to himself, "Is this considered good luck with women? Wait until we return to the Secular World and you see my other women; I really wonder what kind of expression you and mom will have?"
After all, women like Bai Xueling and Wu Xiaofei are top-notch beauties, their appearances easily rival Han Chuxue’s. (To be continued.
