The Villainous Eldest Senior Brother and His Yandere Junior Sisters-Chapter 399 - 171 - The Empress Mother is Insulted! Ye Chen: Rationality! How do you expect me to stay rational! _3
"Princess Consort, do you know that the Soul Ring you secretly left for him, the one confining that mysterious old man with an incredibly powerful background... even he has given up on Ye Chen!"
Seeing the lingering anger in her eyes and fearing a major calamity, Lin Xiao had no choice but to reveal this part of the plot earlier than planned.
"You... how do you know about this..."
Nangong Biyao’s lips parted slightly, her beautiful eyes staring at the handsome youth in shock. Her previous anger had unknowingly subsided by more than half!
What replaced it was deep fear!
Exactly who is this extraordinary young man...? This secret she had undertaken back then was known only to her in all the world. Not even Ye Chen, her own son, was aware of it! Just how did this young man learn about the Soul Ring?
"Alright, I roughly understand what’s going through the Princess Consort’s mind now."
Lin Xiao seized the opportunity to gently caress Princess Consort Beichuan’s hands. They were snow-white, tender, and exquisitely maintained, like those of a noblewoman. "In any case, there’s only one thing you need to know. I, Lin Xiao of the Hehuan Sect... Ahem... I mean, the Qinglan Sect, know countless secrets of this world, including the true nature of the Demon Sect..."
"If I’m not mistaken, Ye Chen, that silly... Ahem, that clever little rascal, originally planned to exploit the Blood Demon for his own benefit, to strengthen his own power. But he didn’t expect it to backfire, and now he’s in a bind."
"Therefore, if we hastily take action against the Blood Demon, Ye Chen’s life will be in even greater danger."
"Trust me, Madam! If we follow my plan, we will surely eliminate the Sky Yin Blood Demon and successfully rescue your son!"
Once again, Lin Xiao displayed his exceptional acting skills, his face a mask of sincerity.
One second.
Two seconds.
After three seconds of silence.
The dignified and beautiful Princess Consort Beichuan slowly lowered her head.
"Very well... I... I will trust you this one time."
She pressed her lips together. After a moment, she lifted her head again and asked softly, with a hint of a plea, "Then... can I go to the Demon Suppression Tower’s exterior and see my son?"
"If the Princess Consort can maintain her composure later, then perhaps... it might be possible."
"It might... be possible."
Lin Xiao glanced at the distant Demon Suppression Tower, shrouded in a bloody mist, and nodded.
...
...
The two of them concealed their auras, passed through several grand illusion formations, and finally arrived before the Demon Suppression Tower.
"Chen’er, Chen’er, are you in there?"
Although she had promised not to make any sound, now, only a step away from her beloved son, Nangong Biyao looked utterly distraught. She gently caressed the mottled tower wall, murmuring incoherently.
"No! Mother... Mother must save you!"
Nangong Biyao’s emotions spiraled out of control once more. Just as she was about to rush towards the tower gate, she was again blocked by that figure in snowy-white robes!
Indeed, this young man from the lower realm possessed a movement technique even more refined than her own, the fairy from the Jade Pool!
This time, Lin Xiao didn’t bother wasting words. He directly pulled her delicate form into his arms. Then, his resolve hardening, he kissed her full on the lips before she could unleash her fury! SMACK.
"’I apologize for the offense; it was to help you calm down,’ Lin Xiao said, having only lightly brushed her lips. Then, seizing her moment of daze, he added a soft peck to her forehead."
Oh my Heavens! This boy actually did it again... Beast! You little beast! My Chen’er is still in there!
Nangong Biyao’s pretty face flushed red to the tips of her ears at a visible rate, and her sense of shame reached its absolute peak! 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
「Meanwhile...」
Inside the Demon Suppression Tower.
Due to being within the Borrowing Luck Big Formation, which had massively drained his fortune, the Princely Heir of Beichuan, whose physical body had temporarily taken on a female form, found his emotions inexplicably spiraling out of control. He opened his furious eyes, let out several roars, and was about to charge out!
Just then, from the direction of the upper tower summit, a strange and profound demonic voice sounded,
"Tsk tsk, Ye Chen, my boy. Just now, you were using this venerable one’s ’Outer Demon Eye’ to observe the situation outside, weren’t you? Hmm?"
"Yes!" Ye Chen knelt, gritting his teeth as he declared, "Father! I want to go out now!"
"What’s wrong? Could it be that you know that man and woman outside?" the demonic figure inquired with interest.
"Father! The woman outside... is my mother!"
Ye Chen tilted his head back and let out a sorrowful cry, tears streaming down his face!
His emotions at this moment were undoubtedly on the verge of erupting!
On one hand, he was deeply moved that his mother had awakened ahead of schedule and come to the Eastern Region to find him!
But on the other hand, he had just witnessed Lin Xiao, the man he hated most in his life, using his filthy hands...
To defile his mother, who was like a supreme goddess to him!
Not only that, he... he had even used his mouth...
This undoubtedly reminded him of the time in Beacon City when this scoundrel had kissed his beloved sister right in front of him!
Seemingly also somewhat shocked, the demonic voice from above paused for a long while before slowly continuing,
"Alright, alright."
"Be rational, good boy. In a couple of days, after you help your father replenish his core essence and overturn the seal, there will be plenty of time to reunite with your birth mother. We of the Demon Sect always keep our public and private affairs separate. Understand?"
The demonic voice, in a rare moment, spoke with gentle reassurance.
"Rational? Father! How do you expect me to be rational?!"
"As you saw... the man outside, currently toying with my mother, he is... he is..."
Ye Chen’s eyes were bloodshot, each word choked with tears, his voice trembling.
Before he could finish his sentence, the demonic voice from above, with a tone of considerable curiosity, proactively asked, "This venerable one understands! That young cultivator... he’s your stepfather, right?"
Ye Chen: !!??
