Ye Kai was not particularly interested in the so-called Longevity Secret. His main goals were twofold: one was to find the Jingyan Palace, which held the War God Codex and was guarded by the Demon Dragon.
The other was the He Shi Bi.
As for the plot, he really didn't care much. If he had any grievances against this Dimension, they were few and far between.
First, there was Consort Zhen's buns (ahem, those with dirty thoughts can go face the wall).
Second, there was the pitiful girl Su Su, and he wanted to deal with the scum known as Fragrant Jade Mountain.
Third, he was utterly in love with Wanwan, to the extent that long ago, he had read a fanfiction where it mentioned what would happen if Wanwan had a father who was also an SS.
And now, he was doing just that. If it weren't for his deep-seated obsession, how could he have become a Wanwan fan (a Loli enthusiast) while also being a devoted father figure?
Fourth, there were the Twin Dragons. He had long wanted to train these two properly, and now that they had become his disciples, it was even better.
Fifth, there were many secrets he kept to himself, like Master Feixuan, Shiqing Xuan, Shang Xiuxun, and so on—cough, some things were better left unsaid…
As for Fu Junruo, the cold beauty, after he had Alice send Yuwen Huaji flying, he thought everything would be fine. But now? The slap on her face echoed loudly!
Moreover, his two adopted disciples were crying uncontrollably, which only fueled his anger.
They were merely sixteen years old—still kids—though they carried a rebellious air about them. Still, he appreciated their spirit.
“Ha! Yuwen Huaji, this Sect is letting you off easy, and look at you now…”
Ye Kai was furious. He turned sharply and with a grim expression ordered Ye Yi and the others: “Listen up! Go catch that bastard immediately. If anyone dares to stop you, throw them into the Divine Realm to feed the turtles!”
“Yes, Lord God!”
With a loud roar, a violent aura surged from Ye Yi and Ye Er, causing everyone within hundreds of meters to hold their breath in fear of the terrifying sight.
With the Multifunctional Detector in hand, Ye Kai was not worried about them failing to find Yuwen Huaji. Taking a deep breath, he looked at Kou Xu, whose face was streaked with tears and snot, and said with irritation, "What are you crying about? A manly man sheds tears but does not wail. Wipe your eyes; your mother is definitely not dead. Look up! Someone has come to take you away!"
Not only did Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stop crying in shock, but even Zhu Yuyan gasped in surprise.
Suddenly, a deep blue light pierced through the clear sky with a rumble, and several robots gracefully descended, quickly beginning their rescue efforts.
Looking up again, everyone noticed that the sky remained a brilliant blue, with nothing else in sight!
The Divine Realm!
God!
A Supreme Deity!
Wanwan's eyes immediately lit up; she was the only one among them who quickly regained her composure and obediently stepped forward to stand beside Ye Kai.
"Ah!"
Ye Kai secretly let out a sigh of relief; Fu Junruo's life had finally been saved. He then turned to Kou Xu and said, "Alright, your mother is fine. She just needs some time to recover fully."
After pondering for a moment with a frown, he decided it would be best not to keep these two troublemakers around. Wherever they went, there would never be a dull moment, and he could openly enjoy the thrill of 'slapping faces.'
He had yet to experience this feeling of being a true show-off!
They were already considered his disciples, so if anyone threatened them in the future, he would back them up. He rarely engaged in such acts of defiance.
As he thought about it, a sense of excitement began to stir within him.
He instructed the Combat Robot to take Fu Junruo into Hope for recovery, while Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling received a rather unkind order: they were to go their own way and only seek help if they encountered a formidable enemy.
Otherwise, as their master, he would have to punish them severely.
After everyone listened to this absurd command with mixed feelings, Ye Kai suddenly suggested going out for food, leaving everyone stunned. He wasn’t interested in any delicacies or lavish meals; he simply wanted buns!
Buns!
In his eyes, aside from Wanwan, perhaps only half of Zhu Yuyan was somewhat pleasing; he couldn’t be bothered with anyone else. So he immediately treated everyone to buns.
With exasperated expressions, the others claimed they had important matters to attend to in their sects and declined to join him.
…
Yangzhou, located east of the Yangtze River, served as a crucial transit point for trade with Japan, Ryukyu, and various regions in the South Seas. Thus, Yangzhou became one of the most important transit stations for foreign trade in the country, busier and more tense than any other city.
Ye Kai had nearly forgotten about his order to deal with Yuwen Huaji because as soon as he stepped out of the Yin Kui Sect’s courtyard, he was captivated by the lively atmosphere of Yangzhou City.
Vendors were calling out to customers, candy hawkers were weaving through the crowd, and there were stalls offering various meals akin to street food that opened his eyes wide.
Forget about Ye Kai being a bumpkin or any notions of modern people being out of place in ancient times; this place was truly fascinating. There were all sorts of people—some dressed extravagantly, others in rags, and even wild men clad in shoulder-baring leather jackets carrying bows and arrows.
He looked around curiously; indeed, he resembled a country bumpkin who had never been to a city before. If it weren’t for his overly extravagant attire, he might have been looked down upon!
However, someone was completely oblivious to their own peculiarities, continuing to wander around with great enthusiasm.
Gurgle, gurgle, Ye Kai's stomach issued its final ultimatum; if it didn't see food soon, it would start a strike. Indeed, he was feeling a bit hungry!
This time, he had his sights set on the buns made by Consort Zhen. Wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, he looked around and confidently strode down a path.
At that moment, a delightful aroma wafted through the air. Ye Kai took a deep sniff.
It was a unique fragrance, far superior to any bun he had ever tasted.
Sure enough, just as he reached his destination, he saw customers eagerly handing over money. The young woman with a bright smile, gently wiping the beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, was none other than Consort Zhen, as mentioned by Kou Xu.
Her eyes were just as described—kind and warm, like a clear stream. Ye Kai felt a warmth in his heart and had an urge to whisk her away.
Wei Zhenzhen's face flushed slightly. She had noticed a richly dressed young man boldly staring at her without any pretense. This made her feel flustered and somewhat embarrassed.
But then she sighed inwardly; she was already married, so she might as well accept her fate!
"Are you afraid of me?"
With a slight smirk, Ye Kai stepped forward, looking at this woman who could truly be called the Bun Beauty.
"No, you don't seem like a bad person at all," she replied.
Her voice carried the unique sweet and sticky accent of Jiangnan Water Town, adding an extra charm to her words.
Surprisingly, Wei Zhenzhen denied her fear. Ye Kai's smile widened as he observed the still slightly nervous Bun Beauty and softly said, "Come with me."
The words, though plain, struck Wei Zhenzhen like a thunderclap, causing the bun in her hand to fall to the ground.
"Hey, you shameless woman! This bun isn't worth money. How did our Feng Family end up marrying someone like you, a harbinger of doom?"
The shrill voice startled Ye Kai, making him furrow his brow involuntarily. As he turned slightly, he saw a wicked woman brandishing a wooden spoon, ready to strike. His gaze darkened immediately.
"Bang!"
After casually tossing down nearly fifty taels of silver, his Dual Eyes suddenly flared with intensity as he spoke, "Zhen'er will be mine from now on. Bring me the contract of sale, and this silver is yours..."
"Yes, yes, yes! Young Master, good morning! I'll fetch it right away!"
Though the wicked woman was under Ye Kai's influence, her greedy nature overshadowed any other thoughts. She hurriedly waddled back into the house to retrieve the so-called contract of sale.
As for the others, including Old Feng, Ye Kai paid them no mind. He stepped forward and gently said, "Zhen'er, I'm hungry. Quickly bring me some buns; let's go!"
Wei Zhenzhen felt a mix of sorrow and joy in her heart, tears already rolling down her cheeks.
Being sold as a concubine was something she resented deeply, but what could she do? She was just a weak woman after all.
With a self-deprecating smile, she numbly untied her apron. Who would be willing to spend so much money on someone as useless as herself? But then again, it was no worse than enduring the beatings and insults here!
Watching the contract fluttering in someone's hand, her eyes reddened further. She thought to herself that wanting to escape was nothing but a delusion. Well then, jumping into another pit of fire seemed inevitable!
Such was fate!
"Why are you crying, silly girl?"
Watching Wei Zhenzhen cry silently, Ye Kai immediately reached out and pulled her into his embrace, speaking gently, "From now on, you are a free person. Of course, you can only be the wife of the Ye Family. As for that contract of servitude, I will shatter it into a million pieces for you."
Feeling the strength of his arms and the masculine aura surrounding him, Wei Zhenzhen was startled, her face filled with panic.
But soon she gave up struggling, for she had witnessed the contract disintegrate into fine powder before her eyes.
Ye Kai truly felt pity for this woman whose fate had been so tumultuous; it was an obsession of his. Now, that obsession had been shattered because he held beauty in his arms, and his heart raced in response.
He had genuinely fallen for this woman, the one who made him want to protect her wholeheartedly from the very first glance.
"Zhongling, those two are now my disciples. Would you like to meet them?" Ye Kai gently wiped away the tears from Wei Zhenzhen's eyes and softly said, "Come with me!"
Upon hearing that familiar name, Wei Zhenzhen snapped back to reality. However, this made Ye Kai a bit dissatisfied; it seemed he was less important than those two!
"Ha!"
Wei Zhenzhen laughed, a tear-streaked smile lighting up her face. She found this young man incredibly amusing; she had never met anyone quite so entertaining.
But as she felt his large hand tighten around her, her cheeks flushed instantly. She couldn't care about anything else and shyly closed her eyes.
