Chapter Ninety-Five Decision

  The room remained quiet, and even when Ye Shuo and Tie Yi Tian left, Chen Ye didn't notice...

  In his mind, he kept thinking about Ye Shuo's last words. A woman had the courage to choose, but did Chen Ye not have the courage to give her happiness?

  After a long, long time, Chen Ye let out a loud, bitter laugh: "Ye Shuang, Yi Tian, it's not that I don't have the courage to give you happiness, but rather...I don't know how to give it. In the future, if I gain enough power, then I will be the one who kills her father and destroys her family - this happiness, how can I give it?"

  "Even if she was really all set, I'm really not ready at all. Moreover, I have no idea how to get prepared!"

  He also wants to be sentimental and wantonly once, but he can't do it. As Ye Shuo said, when he does things, he often thinks too much.

  However, how can we not consider it?

  He now knows the preciousness of life, understands that grasping it is not easy, and cherishes the hard-won opportunities. Whether it's his family or his mother, Chen Ye doesn't think much of himself, but now his family may not need to pay too much, what about his mother?

  Even now, I still remember that year on the north mountain, those black-clothed men appeared and with a slight push, my foundation was destroyed. My mother in their hands also had no power to fight back!

  The mother's cultivation was unknown, and at that time, Chen Ye didn't have a general impression in his mind. However, he knew that if the mother got angry, his father, who was in the middle of the Mystic Realm, wouldn't be able to withstand even one move from her.

  What was said about getting angry and not being able to take it anymore, wasn't that the father pitied the mother and didn't dare to lay a hand on her, or after laying hands on her, showed mercy, but in the real and actual confrontation, the father was defeated!

  A mother's cultivation like this can guarantee that even if it's the old master, he won't be able to make Father lose, which means Mother's cultivation is still above the old master!

  Judging from this, it can be imagined what kind of cultivation those black-clothed men have!

  Chen Ye had never told his family in detail about what happened on the night of Beiwang Mountain, but just the fact that his mother was taken away was enough to let everyone in the Chen family know that those people were not something they could resist.

  So this responsibility can only be borne by Chen Ye alone, and he doesn't want to drag the entire Chen family into an inescapable crisis because of his own affairs.

  For his mother, for the reunion of his family, Chen Ye must live a good life, and living in this world, apart from strength, it also requires sufficient caution and wisdom!

  For Xuan Ling, he also had a strange fondness in his heart. As time passed by, although they hadn't been together for many years, the good feelings established since childhood didn't weaken with the passage of time. On the contrary, it was like fine wine, the longer it aged, the sweeter it became!

  But he couldn't make a wise choice for this, even if what Yeshake said was right, it could only be like that.

  Perhaps everything should be left to fate and time to decide. This approach is not in line with Chen Ye's style, but he really didn't have a better solution at the moment.

  He let out a light sigh, closed his eyes and sat down. After a month and a half of healing through sleep, when he woke up, he was afraid that everyone would be worried, so he hastily walked out of the room, not even having time to properly feel the changes in his body after this injury had healed.

  As for other things, just let them go!

  The Knife Spirit Awakens. Although the Ancient Emperor's Palace has yet to recover and remains mysterious, with the Knife Spirit present, future cultivation will surely undergo great changes.

  And yet, Tian Dao, as the treasure of Hunyuan, is currently not strong enough to protect such a treasure, let alone the treasure of Hunyuan. Even if it were a divine sword or a pre-heavenly spiritual treasure, there would be others who would covet it.

  Can't think of getting into trouble again because of Tian Dao and causing unnecessary big troubles for myself and the Chen family!

  During this time, also in front of many people, the use of a small knife is unavoidable, and some people with ulterior motives will pay too much attention to it. Perhaps they won't think it's the treasure of chaos, but for Chen Ye, it's still not suitable.

  So, I can't stay in the Imperial City for long.

  It's not just because of the Tian Dao, but also due to his own cultivation, which has already reached the first realm of the Initial Mystery. Continuing to stay in the Imperial City won't be of much help to his growth in power. A young eagle must go through a true tempering process before it can become a majestic eagle soaring in the skies.

  Of course, before leaving, first and foremost is being able to leave with peace of mind.

  Three days passed in the blink of an eye!

  When Chen Ye walked out of the room again at night, he found that Lao Ye was outside.

  "Grandpa, when did you arrive?"

  "I've been waiting for you all along. Ye Shuo and Yi Tian have had a lot of discussions with me." Old Master Chen said with profound meaning.

  Chen Ye's heart suddenly became anxious and he shouted: "Grandpa..."

  Grandfather Chen waved his hand and said, "Yè, there's no one else here, so don't treat me like your grandfather. Just think of me as an ordinary person, a stranger you've never met before. Tell me, what are your true thoughts?"

  "Me?"

  "After a long silence, he slowly said: 'Grandfather, the things I've experienced don't allow me to be too reckless, too emotional. As for matters of the heart... Grandfather, if the Chen family is not at peace...'"

  "The Chen family may not have truly settled down yet, but you can rest assured that the current Chen family is not invincible like a golden shield, at least for several years, the Emperor will not take any action against the Chen family."

  The old man's words were so affirmative that Chen Ye was very curious. Had something changed in the imperial palace over the past three days, with time passing peacefully and safely?

  Even if there are changes, some promises, when they conflict with the future map, also often don't work. The emperor is the son of heaven, and it's said that a gentleman doesn't speak in jest, but whether this is actually true remains to be discussed.

  "Tonight, don't doubt the truth of what I'm saying!"

  Old Man Chen smiled and said, "Most of the strength of my Chen family has been shown to everyone in the Imperial City, and it's not all of it, but enough to intimidate everyone, including the royal family. And there's one more thing that made the Emperor completely give up on being an enemy with my Chen family for now!"

  "What's wrong?" Chen Ye's eyebrows furrowed, and he felt a slight unease in his heart.

  "It's Xuan Ling!" Old Master Chen said calmly!

  "It's really her!" Chen Ye let out a deep sigh.

  "Yes, I didn't expect that either," said Old Master Chen with a sigh. "Three days ago, after Xuan Ling returned to the palace, the two powerful experts by her side began to release their strong aura, and all those who were hiding in secret to monitor Xuan Ling were killed and their corpses sent back to their masters."

  "The Empress of the Eastern Palace, all the ladies of the palace, the adult princes, and the Emperor! When the body was sent back, another sentence was added: You are the most important person to her, Xuan Ling. If anyone dares to lay a hand on you again in the future, her revenge will be even more brutal!"

  "No one had expected that Xuan Ling's cultivation had already reached the Early Mystic Third Realm, while the two powerful experts beside her, the old man named Xuan Wu, was at the Middle Mystic Third Realm, and the masked woman had shockingly reached the Middle Mystic Seventh Realm."

  "Besides Yun Taixu, there might be some others who can rival the top experts beside the Emperor. However, they have been in the imperial palace for many years without being discovered, which is enough to show that behind Xuan Ling, there is an even more powerful force. This power is something that even Yun Taixu personally acknowledged."

  "Night," Old Master Chen sighed, "in that case, how could the Emperor possibly provoke our Chen family without being fully prepared?"

  "Ling'er, she's for me... She touches my heart!"

  "So, you can't let her down!" Old Master Chen was a man of great justice and morality, and in his eyes, right and wrong were crystal clear. He could see the sincerity in Xu Ling's heart towards Chen Ye.

  Upon hearing this, Chen Ye let out a bitter laugh and calmly said: "Grandfather, the Chen family is safe for now, but what about Mother?"
