Chapter 118: Aunt?

  At dinner time, Ye Chen looked worried and said to everyone, "They said they will come again tomorrow, what should we do?"

  The four of them listened to Ye Chen's helpless words, exchanged a smile with each other, and didn't respond to Ye Chen, as if there was no such person as Ye Chen at the dinner table.

  Ye Chen looked at the crowd ignoring him, helplessly shrugged his shoulders, and ate alone, thinking quickly in his mind about what method he could use to deal with the crowd tomorrow.

  In the end, Ye Chen couldn't think of a good solution and shook his head with a tragic expression. As he lifted his head, he was stunned to find that Ye Tong and the others had left without him knowing when. The whole table was empty except for himself. He got up, cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks he used, and walked towards his room.

  As soon as Ye Chen entered the room, he saw Liu Yuer staring at him with a seductive expression, saying softly: "Now you're happy, right? This girl is going to marry you!"

  Ye Chen took a look at Liu Yuer's seductive expression, helplessly shook his head, and didn't think about what to do tomorrow. He directly rushed towards Liu Yuer and knocked her down on the bed, saying: "Aren't you afraid that someone else will snatch me away?"

  Liu Yuer smiled lightly and said: "I'm not afraid of that, anyway you're not just mine, Xinger has to worry too!"

  "Haha!"

  Ye Chen burst out laughing and directly covered Liu Yuer's mouth with his, starting a passionate kiss. As they kissed, the two of them gradually removed their clothes, entwining themselves together...

  The next day!

  It was still a while before dawn, and Ye Chen got up from the gentle village, put on his clothes and prepared to go out for practice. In fact, Ye Chen got up so early to practice in order to avoid the matchmaker.

  "Brother Chen, why are you going out so early! It's not even light yet!" Liu Yuer rubbed her still unopened eyes and lazily said to Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen's face turned red as he said with a stern expression: "Cultivation must be bitter! I absolutely cannot have a moment of slackness!"

  Liu Yuer lazily smiled and said: "You're not afraid of those people, are you?"

  "How is that possible? How can I be afraid of them?" Ye Chen said with a "I'm the strongest" expression to Liu Yu'er, but others could see through his nervousness at a glance.

  "Cut!" Liu Yuer rolled her eyes at Ye Chen and turned back to continue sleeping.

  Ye Chen looked at Liu Yuer and saw that she had fallen asleep again, then he hastily walked outwards, while also sneakily looking around cautiously. As soon as he left the house, he transformed into a gust of wind and rapidly swept towards the outskirts of the village...

  On the hillside, Ye Chen let out a deep breath and muttered to himself: "Fortunately, they weren't blocking me at the door this time. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome. I won't go back for breakfast in the morning either. Let's just eat together when we get back tonight!"

  Then, Ye Chen took a deep breath, calming his fluctuating emotions, and began the dull and tedious cultivation.

  "Seize the dragon and gaze at the moon!"

  "Dragons and tigers fight!"

  .....

  As Ye Chen's fierce attack unfolded, the true energy within him was dwindling. When his internal energy was almost depleted, Ye Chen sat cross-legged, ready to begin cultivating the Killing Aura Technique...

  True energy quickly appeared around Ye Chen and immediately, like a child who had been away from home for many years finally finding his way back, rapidly drilled into Ye Chen's body.

  Ye Chen's eyes were tightly closed, feeling the increasingly abundant true energy within his body, and a relieved smile appeared on his face. As he had expected, after experiencing these two major battles, he had indeed killed many people, and the true energy in his body had increased significantly. At the same time, Ye Chen also discovered that when he killed stronger enemies or those with heavier killing intent, the killing intent he accumulated was even greater...

  In an instant, Ye Chen's true energy had fully recovered and reached the peak of Gathering Qi Second Layer, and at any time, he might step into Gathering Qi Third Layer.

  Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes, feeling the true energy filling his body, and smiled foolishly to himself: "I wonder what level of cultivation those brothers have reached now. If they saw my current cultivation, I don't know how shocked they would be!" He then let out a sigh and continued: "And I also wonder how Xiang Er and Bing Er are doing. It's been so long since we last met, do they still think of me?"

  Ye Chen immediately began practicing his martial skills again...

  Reality is so wonderful that when you think of someone, he or she may also be thinking of you. It's really a case of "heart-to-heart connection"!

  In the Taiyun Mountains, Wang Zhan killed a first-class demon beast in front of him with one punch and turned to the crowd, saying: "I don't know what level Old Five has reached now!"

  "Yes! It should have broken through!"

  "It shouldn't be much different! We absolutely can't fall behind him, or else us older brothers will really lose face!"

  Wang Zhan and three others were also thinking of Ye Chen...

  At the same time, in Lianyun Sect Ye Chen's residence, Shen Xiang and Mu Bing were also gazing into the distance with a thoughtful expression.

  "Xinger sister, do you think Brother Chen is thinking of us?"

  "That's for sure, he can't leave us!"

  "Are you thinking of him?"

  "You're just like me!"

  ......

  ——————

  As Ye Chen restored the true energy consumed within his body to its original state, he looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky and smiled slightly, saying: "Now those people should have left too, right?"

  Ye Chen slowly stood up and his figure disappeared into thin air like the wind, rushing towards the direction of his home.

  Ye Chen had just walked into the house when Ye Tong came up to him, made a face and said: "Brother, why haven't you been seen all day? I've been looking for you for half a day!"

  Ye Chen smiled awkwardly and said: "I... I went to cultivate! How come you didn't go to cultivate?"

  "I went, but I came back early. My aunt brought my cousin to our house and I'm accompanying her at home! However, I don't like this aunt!"

  "Aunt? Cousin?" Ye Chen was taken aback, furrowing his brow as he said: "What cousin? When did I get another aunt?"

  "Aunt is father's sister, and cousin is aunt's daughter!" Ye Tong explained to Ye Chen with a "you're really stupid" expression.

  Ye Chen helplessly shrugged his shoulders, he naturally understood this kind of relationship, what he meant was who exactly was this so-called aunt.

  At this time, Liu Yuer also walked over from the side and stood beside Ye Chen, using her hand to twist his waist fiercely and said in a low voice: "Everyone has been waiting for you at your house all day, why don't you go take a look quickly!"

  Ye Chen felt a sharp pain in his waist and pitifully glanced at Liu Yu'er, but didn't dare to cry out.

  "Chen'er is back!"

  A strange voice came from inside the house, and immediately a woman who looked similar to Ye Tong walked out with a reserved woman by her side.

  Ye Chen was taken aback and stared blankly at the middle-aged woman in front of him, revealing a puzzled expression: "Aunt?"

  "Ah! This is my sister, who is also your aunt!" Ye Tong walked out of the house with a smile on his face and gave Ye Chen a slight smile.

  His name is Ye Hua, who is actually Ye Chen's aunt. She just got married and moved to another village when she was young. Plus, Ye Chen has been away for eight years, so it's not surprising that he doesn't recognize her.

  Upon hearing this, Ye Chen thought carefully for a moment and realized that he indeed had an aunt like that. He smiled slightly and respectfully said: "Auntie!"

  Ye Hua looked at Ye Chen and thought of himself, smiled happily, and immediately walked up to pat Ye Chen's shoulder, saying: "It's been ten years since we last met, now you've really grown into a big man! I remember when you were young, you even peed on your uncle's shoulder!"

  Ye Chen thought for a moment and found that he indeed had such an experience when he was young, then smiled awkwardly at her and said: "Auntie, this is all old news!"

  "Haha!" Ye Hua smiled and immediately pulled the blushing woman beside him forward, saying softly: "Do you still remember her? She's your cousin Zhou Qian, you two used to play together when you were young."

  Ye Chen was taken aback, only to realize that his aunt wasn't just making a casual visit, but had actually come to introduce him to a potential wife. He awkwardly nodded in response.

  "Alright! The meal is ready, let's eat and chat!" Ye Xian shouted to everyone as she came out of the kitchen.

  Upon hearing this, Ye Chen hastily replied: "Mother, I'll help you!" As soon as the words left his mouth, Ye Chen ran towards the kitchen like a fugitive.

  Ye Hua looked at Ye Chen's appearance and slightly frowned, then said to Zhou Qian beside him: "Qian'er, go help your older cousin!"

  "Ah!"

  Zhou Qian shyly answered and immediately hurried towards the kitchen.

  Ye Tong looked at Ye Hua's expression, pouted her small mouth, pulled Liu Yuer's arm and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I don't like her. In the past when brother wasn't around, she didn't even come to see us. Now that she's here, it's only because brother has abilities! Aren't you angry at all? She clearly knows you're here, yet she deliberately lets her daughter get close to brother!"

  Liu Yuer smiled slightly and touched Ye Tong's head, saying softly: "You're still so young, yet you bear grudges!"

  "Hmph, I just don't like her!" Ye Tong pouted and said with a displeased face.

  Liu Yuer looked at Ye Tong's expression and smiled helplessly, saying softly: "Alright! Don't worry, your brother will absolutely not take a liking to that cousin of yours!"

  "I hope so!" Ye Tong nodded with a mature expression beyond his years.

  Before long, everyone gathered around the table, but a contradiction arose. The table in Ye Chen's house was too small, and it was already crowded with five people normally, now seven people simply couldn't sit down.

  Ye Hua glanced at Liu Yu'er and didn't care whether others had a seat or not, then directly pulled his daughter to sit down on the seat.

  Liu Yuer looked at Ye Hua's expression and knew she was targeting herself, so she frowned and didn't sit down, just standing there with a very displeased look.

  Ye Tong's small mouth twitched, and she pulled Liu Yuer's hand to sit down at the table, whispering to her: "Don't mind her, let's just sit down!"

  Liu Yu'er furrowed her brow, looking at Ye Tong and the others who were all still standing. If she sat down herself, Ye Tong and the others would certainly not want to let her get up again, which would be awkward later on.

  "Come on, Ye Tong, Ye Xin, Chen Er, hurry up and sit down!" Ye Hua directly ignored Liu Yu'er and Ye Tong...
