"Good daughter, I miss you so much. How are you? Is Vibrant back to normal?"
"Don't worry, it's all fine. Father has brought back a master who has many pills to restore Vibrant. Don't be afraid; I will do anything to get a few pills for you. Rainbow Net, I'm with you all the way!"
"Sit down quickly, sit down! What are you doing? Don't move around. Giving birth is not like anything else; it requires calmness, especially in the next three to five years. Don't get angry..."
As Ye Kai and Long Ao stepped into the hall, they heard Xuan Yi Zhen Jun's words that sent shivers down their spines. Almost stumbling, Ye Kai looked at the overly eager and somewhat fawning figure with a dark expression.
Damn it!
This old fellow's daughter obsession was undeniable.
"Please, esteemed seniors, have a seat."
Long Ao wiped away nonexistent sweat from his forehead, his lips twitching as he forced an awkward smile.
He was already used to such scenes, but there were outsiders present. This was too unreliable for a Father-in-law.
That said, he dared not speak up; otherwise, even if his father-in-law was nothing special, he feared that his **Willow Brow would be raised against him, and he would be in deep trouble.
"Alright, alright, Ao, these are not outsiders; relax a bit." Thunder Dragon True Monarch couldn't bear to watch any longer and patted Long Ao on the shoulder. After all, he understood this family better than anyone else here.
What kind of person Xuan Yi Zhen Jun was after thousands of years of friendship—how could he not know?!
Though he secretly grumbled, he couldn't remain silent.
"Father, I am already at the peak of Nascent Soul cultivation. With my husband by my side and plenty of pills available, Vibrant has already recovered significantly."
Just as Ye Kai and the others settled down, a gentle female voice rang out: "Moreover, this time I have already troubled several seniors; how can I ask for more? Father, I am fine. Please don't keep the esteemed seniors waiting; otherwise, I would be too rude!"
Ye Kai's face revealed a bitter smile as he glanced at the Thunder Dragon True Monarch, who also looked over with an equally pained expression.
He knew that in this family, aside from Long Ao, neither Xuan Yi nor his daughter were easy to deal with. Their words were all meant to advise their old father not to be too anxious or hot-headed; everything would turn out fine.
With her husband by her side and some medicinal pills in hand, her health was nearly restored.
Yet, thinking of the phrase "my own Vibrant has already recovered more than half," Ye Kai couldn't help but smile bitterly again. It seemed that as a senior, he was going to face financial loss once more!
Although he didn't care much about it, the feeling was still rather unpleasant.
Sure enough, Xuan Yi Zhen Jun wore a smug smile as she turned around, and the woman also stood up, supporting him as they walked slowly over.
She was an extraordinarily beautiful woman, her smile blooming like a flower, her voice melodious. Adorned with a golden hairpin and wearing jade ornaments at her waist, she radiated elegance. Her attire flowed gracefully with the wind, and her gaze sparkled with brilliance. She exuded an air of calmness and poise.
As the woman glanced at Long Ao before shifting her gaze more towards the Thunder Dragon True Monarch and Ye Kai, he suddenly recalled an article he had read in his past life titled "The Ode to the Goddess of Luo": "Her form is like a startled swan, graceful like a wandering dragon; she shines like autumn chrysanthemums and flourishes like spring pines. She is like light clouds veiling the moon, drifting like snowflakes in the breeze."
"Is this how Cao Zhi felt when he first saw the Goddess of Luo?" Ye Kai mused, his mind racing while his heart had already sounded the highest alarm.
The beauty before him surpassed his few red-faced acquaintances not only in composure but also in grace. In his lifetime, only his own princess could be compared to her.
The princess and this woman were indeed like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums—each shining brightly in their own right.
However, unlike when he faced his own princess back then, he now found himself in the role of an elder. Although some might think that under certain circumstances it could be quite stimulating, Ye Kai insisted that he was not that kind of person.
Faced with such an exquisite beauty, he felt no spark of excitement; instead, his scalp tingled slightly.
It was well-known that Wuji's mother had said that the more beautiful a woman was, the more deceitful she could be.
The danger level of this woman was definitely not inferior to that of Wuji's mother; she was undoubtedly in the same league.
"Greetings, Uncle Brontosaurus, Uncle Ye," the woman said.
Looking at the gentle demeanor of the woman, Ye Kai felt a headache coming on. Aside from Long Ao, who had turned into a fool upon seeing his wife, everyone else had caught on to the underlying meaning of her words.
Especially the way she emphasized "Uncle," which clearly indicated that she was expecting gifts!
Xuan Yi Zhen Jun's eyes sparkled as he laughed heartily a few times. "Brothers, it's our first time meeting our niece. We can't come empty-handed, can we? You are all powerful beings; surely you wouldn't be stingy with a few trivial items!"
Hearing this, Ye Kai nearly lost his temper, but before he could speak, his niece put on a delicate and shy expression. "Father, the uncles are all newcomers. How can we be rude? As the saying goes, respect for elders is important. I'm already overjoyed that the uncles have come. I only hope that you won't think poorly of my humble Crystal Palace while attending Zer’s hundred-day banquet."
With that, she performed a slight bow, displaying a hint of shyness and restraint typical of a junior meeting their elders for the first time.
Damn it!!!
Whoever thought this pair in front of Ye Kai were not father and daughter would be in trouble!
What beautiful words! The subtext was all about showing her virtuous character and respect for her elders.
But in reality, it was a blatant reminder: "Uncle, it's our first meeting at my hundred-day banquet; surely there should be some acknowledgment!"
Damn it!!!
She was a real enchantress!!!
Looking at the woman who appeared both aggrieved and somewhat at a loss, Ye Kai felt a wave of frustration. Just as he saw this girl about to continue, he hurriedly interrupted her. "You little girl, so cunning..."
Rolling his eyes again, he sighed softly. "Aside from the Falling Star Pill, Restorative Pill, and Warm Origin Pill, there's also the Yuan Yang Dan. This Jade Liquid True Water Bottle can condense three drops of true jade water each month. Long-term consumption not only preserves youth but also nourishes your physical body. As for other benefits, you'll have to discover them yourself."
While preparing, he quickly exchanged glances with the Thunder Dragon True Monarch and the two behind him, She Yuanjun and Gongyang Zhenjun, urging them to hurry. If they delayed any longer, it would no longer be a simple gift-giving occasion.
There was no way they could let this father and daughter leave without shedding a layer of skin!
Especially for She Yuanjun and Gongyang Zhenjun, both of them had quite a few valuable items in their possession. Since they had already addressed him as "uncle," if they didn't produce something soon, who knew what kind of ridicule they would face?
The others also wore wry smiles as they opened their bags, revealing Material Treasures, elixirs, rare flowers and herbs, and even a Dragon Pearl, which piled up on the table.
Seeing this scene made Ye Kai's mouth water.
But looking at Xuan Zhen'er's radiant smile, like a blooming flower, he couldn't help but calm himself slightly.
“Daddy, Mommy, has Grandpa arrived?”
At that moment, a delicate child of about three or four years old suddenly ran in from outside the main hall, followed by seven or eight Mermaid Attendants who were gasping in surprise.
“Wow!!!”
Upon hearing the child's sweet voice, Ye Kai turned his head curiously. However, when he saw the child, he was taken aback and stood up abruptly, whispering, “Donghua Qingling Body!!!”
