Chapter 167 - 167 162 I said you were my daughter-in-law at

?Chapter 167: Chapter 162: I said you were my daughter-in-law at that time Chapter 167: Chapter 162: I said you were my daughter-in-law at that time Xiao Bai saw this as an opportunity to showcase his capabilities. With the sect leader’s position up for grabs, he needed to make a good impression, as it would benefit him.

Xiao Bai said, “Don’t be sad, junior brother. Our primary duty now is to guide the disciples of the New City Sect.”

Jiang Zhuge had been killing for two days straight without rest. He had ridden back all night without sleep. Now that Xiao Bai had come over, having just contested for the sect leader’s position, he found it hard to accept and felt a severe headache. He said, “Kong Sha, handle affairs here in my stead. I have a terrible headache. After a short rest, I’ll rise as I did not sleep at all last night. It seems he did not much care to deal with Xiao Bai.”

Kong Sha nodded his head and said, “Mmm, I will arrange everything.”

Xiao Bai shot him a cold glance and walked in another direction.

Mu Wanlan followed Wei Yiling out. Wei Yiling could not accept the news of her father’s death. How could she just take her father’s death lying down?

Wan Lan noticed and caught up to ask, “Where are you going, Ling’er?” Several of the disciples were following behind.

“I am going to find my father.”

“Your father is already dead.”

“That’s not possible. My father promised me he would always be there for me. He wouldn’t die just like that.” Ling’er couldn’t accept the brutal truth.

She had prepared a horse, ready to leave the city.

Wan Lan couldn’t stop her and could only let her be. Ling’er’s father had died; it was understandable if she didn’t want to acknowledge it. Wan Lan contemplated for a moment before yelling, “Fine, we’ll find your father. I’ll go with you.”

Wan Lan, along with several disciples, prepared horses and followed her out of the city.

The New City Sect was in a state of chaos, as if the sky had fallen. Everyone was engulfed in sorrow and found it hard to come to terms with the reality.

Ye Chen and his companions spent two days in the cave, ensuring that the men in black had left before resuming activities. Luckily, they had plenty of food prepared in the cave.

“I am very curious, how did you develop a liking for an old man?” Ye Chen asked.

“Do you ever stop chattering?” Feng Niang stoked a fire as they had already exited the secret cave.

“From my perspective, you’re able to fall for an old man, so crossing species boundaries must be just a matter of time.”

“In that case, why don’t you find a female monkey and try crossing the species barrier yourself? Let me know when you succeed.”

Ye Chen chuckled at her words, laying down on the ground and looking up at the sky. The first stars of the night were starting to appear. By tomorrow, they would be able to leave this place.

“I’m just genuinely curious. How did you develop a liking for an old man, especially while you were still a young girl, loving an old man so passionately and devotedly. I want to examine when this emotional journey started.”

“Maybe we women are inherently emotional and thus have low IQ,” Feng Niang retorted.

“Really? So why aren’t you two together then?”

“Why are you so desperately curious?””
“Ah, well, there’s nothing else to do now, so why not talk about it?”

“It’s because of her daughter, that’s why we aren’t together. Now stop asking,” Feng Niang seemed unwilling to continue the conversation.

“You mean the girl called Ling’er?”

“You know his daughter?”

“Of course I do, we’re at serious odds.”

“At odds? Not… You didn’t, did you?”

“Of course not! I fled Wasteland City because I couldn’t bear her constant pursuit. She drove me out.”

“Oh, hearing you talk, it sounds like there’s some kind of story between you two.”

“Absolutely infuriating.”

“Infuriating? You’re afraid of her?”

“It’s not exactly fear.”

“She’s in love with you?”

“Your imagination is really something. In love?! She loathes me and wants to flay me alive.”

“Flay you alive? Did you impregnate her?”

Ye Chen laughed, saying, “Would I be so careless? I’m not sure how, but somehow I got under her skin.”

“How so?”

Ye Chen, slightly embarrassed, threw out: “I bumped into her changing clothes.”

“Bumped into her changing? More like you were peeping. Who would’ve thought you had such a hobby.”

“You think that’s the kind of person I am? Remember when you were drunk that night? I didn’t undress you. How could I be the kind of person who peeps at others changing?” Ye Chen coldly said.

“Easy to bump into people changing, huh? I’m curious, how did you bump into her changing?”

“The New City Sect had just moved near my house. Seeing their bustling activity, I snuck in for a look, and mistakenly stumbled upon a girl changing. There was already friction between us. She wanted to capture me, so I hid in Wei Yiling’s room without expecting her to be in the midst of changing clothes.”

“So, did you peep while she was changing?”

“I saw a little before I was discovered.”

“Oh, just a little. I’ve heard her daughter is very pretty.”

“Madwoman. Indeed, she’s quite attractive, but she refuses to let me go,” Ye Chen said.

“Maybe she likes you.”

“Those I like are all out to skin me.”

“You’re pretty close in age I guess.”

“About the same, we knew each other since we were kids.”

“You even had stories when you were young.” Feng Niang asked, “What kind of stories, hurry up and tell me.”

“Hey, how have I let you corner me into this? I was the one supposed to be asking you, not you asking me, how do you even like Wei Sisan, surely not just because he’s an old guy.”

Feng Niang chuckled lightly.

“Don’t laugh, how on earth did you get smitten with him and waste so many years of your life?” Ye Chen said.

“If you want to delve into my past, I’m not going to tell you,” Feng Niang replied.

“Oh come on, let me gain some wisdom. For when I become an old man, how to entice young girls. You couldn’t have just taken a liking to him because he’s the Alliance Leader of Third Demon, has a lot of power. That shouldn’t be it, you probably don’t pay too much attention to these things. How could you be captivated by these worldly matters?” Ye Chen said.

“Child, you don’t understand anything.”

Ye Chen pulled a handkerchief from his pocket. Suddenly remembering something, he said, “Oh right, there’s something I haven’t told you yet.”

“What is it?”

Ye Chen said, “That night, when I saved Wei Sisan, I had this handkerchief over my face. But this plum blossom pattern was seen by Wei Sisan. He asked me about my relationship with you, and I told him you were my wife.”

“What?” Feng Niang gave him a hard slap.

“I wanted to see Wei Sisan’s reaction. That night, I overheard you talking about Wei Sisan. I didn’t quite believe it, so I wanted to provoke him a bit.”

Feng Niang gave a cold laugh, snorted and said, “All you men are the same.”

“Hey, what’s the matter, am I not good enough for you! He even complimented me, said I’m handsome and that my martial arts are good, which is very rare.”

“You men, you just love to compete. Do you need this sort of thing to boost your sense of achievement?”

“What sense of achievement? I am still young and you…”

“What about me?”

“You’re so charming, so it’s actually rather fitting.”

If he dared to call her old, she would have to hit him with a stick, and beat him to death.

“I was just trying to help you save face. Imagine if people knew that you had been alone all these years, they would think you had a pitiful life.”

“I think you’re just trying to feed your ego, showing everyone you’ve got a woman others can’t get.”

“Well, there is a bit of that, but it’s not entirely that.”

“Stop it, I know what you guys think.”

“Oh, my dear sister.”

“You like to possess things just to prove your power.”

“No, I haven’t claimed you as mine.” Ye Chen said, “I heard from Wei Sisan that he hasn’t seen you in many years. I guess you haven’t seen him for a long time either. What was it like seeing him again, did you want to throw yourself at him again?”

“Throw my head at you.”

“Don’t, that old guy can’t handle that, If you’re going to throw yourself at someone, it should be us young people, that way you won’t waste yourself.”

“Silly boy, you understand nothing.”

“Right, I know I understand nothing, so why don’t you enlighten me, let me learn something!”

“At this age, there’s nothing much left to say.”

“He may be old and sick, but in my eyes, you’re still so young and attractive.”

She kicked him hard.

“A young one who could already be your mother,” said Feng Niang.

Ye Chen said, “If you don’t care about the old man, it resonates with me. I don’t mind older women.”

“If you dare call me an old woman, I’ll beat you to death.”

“Hehe, but you’re the sister I recognize. How can a sister treat her own brother like this?”

“It’s all in the past.”

“The past? If you don’t decide to start over, only then everything could genuinely be in the past,” said Ye Chen. “Even if you say you want a fresh start, but you’ve never really done it, it doesn’t count. Only when you act on it can you truly move on.”

“Eat your food; don’t lecture me like an old scholar,” Feng Niang blew up.

“Yeah, I’m just someone who knows nothing. Just spouting nonsense,” Ye Chen said.

Suddenly, a shout came from inside, “The master has awakened.”

The disciples of the New City Sect at the entrance of the cave hurried inside. Ye Chen didn’t rush in. That’s not his master, and he didn’t have to go gallivanting in.

Ye Chen continued eating and drinking. Feng Niang snatched the wine bag and took a sip.

Ye Chen glanced at her and said, “He’s awake, aren’t you going to go in and see? Your old flame is there!”

“Why should I go in?”

“Everyone says you can’t let go, and you see, I was right. People are like this, those involved see things least clearly.”
