Chapter 131 Losing both the wife and the son
After the trip to the market, the master and the disciple returned with a full load.
Liu Yishu was in a particularly good mood when he thought that Chaoyang would not be back for three days and he and Xu Weichen could spend three days alone at Xiaoyue Peak.
However, his good mood disappeared when he saw someone standing outside the fence.
Even from a distance, one could see the aura of "keep away from strangers" emanating from Ye Yunhan.
"Where is Chaoyang?" Ye Yunhan couldn't even wait for them to come over. He stepped forward and asked coldly.
"Chaoyang went down the mountain to help me with something. It will take him three days to come back." Xu Weichen was stunned for a moment before answering.
Hearing this, Ye Yunhan felt even colder, and frowned, "Brother, you are very good at using me! Why don't you ask your beloved little disciple to do the work? Chaoyang has just passed the golden elixir tribulation, and it is the time when he needs to consolidate his cultivation. Brother, you are really biased!"
Liu Yishu didn't like to hear this.
"Senior brother is also the master's disciple. What's wrong with being the master's disciple?" He leaned over from behind Xu Weichen and said.
"Besides, you said that I am your master's beloved baby, so of course I should always keep me by your side and take good care of me!" Seeing Ye Yunhan's ugly face, Liu Yishu added without hesitation.
Ye Yun glanced at him coldly. If Liu Yishu was just an ordinary person, he would probably freeze to death under his gaze.
However, he still pretended to be very scared, shrank back, and hid behind Xu Weichen.
Seeing this, Ye Yunhan immediately transferred his anger to Xu Weichen, "Chaoyang Tianjiao has an extraordinary understanding of the way of the sword. If you don't know how to cherish him, why not give him to me? I will definitely accept him as my personal disciple and teach him everything I know!"
Although Xu Weichen also felt that it would definitely be better if Chaoyang could become Ye Yunhan's disciple than being his apprentice, it was Chaoyang's freedom to choose who to become his master, and he could not interfere or make the decision for him.
So Xu Weichen didn't respond to his question and just asked, "Junior brother, what do you want to see Chaoyang about? If it's not urgent, I'll let him know when he comes back."
Ye Yunhan's expression froze slightly.
It wasn't obvious before that Chaoyang had been staying at Linxue Peak, but as soon as Chaoyang was gone, the suppressed fire spirit root in his body seemed to become particularly restless, making it impossible for him to calm down and practice.
He knew very well that Chaoyang stayed at Linxue Peak before only because his master Xu Weichen was unable to protect him for the time being and later left the mountain gate, so he let Chaoyang stay with him temporarily. But now Xu Weichen is back, and his cultivation level surpasses all the cultivators in the entire Suzaku Continent. There is no reason for Chaoyang to continue staying at Linxue Peak.
"It would be great if Chaoyang was his apprentice, then I could stay with him in Linxue Peak forever!"
While waiting outside the fenced courtyard, this thought kept appearing in Ye Yunhan's mind, and just now, on impulse, he spoke this thought out loud.
But after he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. How could he compete with his senior brother for a disciple?
"Nothing, no need to tell me!" He hid his shame with a cold face, said a few words stiffly, turned around and left.
Xu Weichen looked at Ye Yunhan's back as he fled in panic, feeling very puzzled.
"Master, I can probably guess what uncle wants to see you about!" Liu Yishu leaned close to Xu Weichen's ear and whispered.
"What's the matter?" Xu Weichen asked curiously.
Ye Yunhan's behavior was really too abnormal.
He has always been straightforward, speaking and doing things from the heart, and it is rare for him to be awkward like this.
"This matter is related to the hidden danger of my uncle's spiritual roots." Liu Yishu said.
As a half-involved person, Xu Weichen knew very well what hidden dangers Ye Yunhan's spiritual roots had.
Back then, Ye Yunhan was born with great expectations from his parents, but when his spiritual roots were tested, it was discovered that he actually had dual spiritual roots.
At a time when natural spiritual roots are almost extinct, dual spiritual roots are considered to be excellent spiritual roots, but unfortunately Ye Yunhan's dual spiritual roots are water and fire respectively.
Although his spiritual roots are mainly water and his fire spiritual roots are very weak, the spiritual roots of cultivators correspond to the five elements, which are mutually generated and restrained. Water generates wood, and wood generates fire, but water and fire cannot mix.
Ye Yunhan was found to have dual spiritual roots of water and fire, which meant that he had almost no chance of becoming an immortal.
However, it has always been difficult for cultivators to have children, and the higher the cultivator's cultivation, the more difficult it is. At that time, Ye Qianjun was already the leader of a sect in Taicang Mountain, and had reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. His Taoist partner was his junior sister from the same sect, who had also reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul. He fully believed that the child he and his junior sister would have would combine the best of both of their strengths and be extremely talented. However, fate played a trick on them, and the child he placed great hopes on turned out to have a useless spiritual root.
He was unwilling to give up and tried every possible way, but he could not eliminate the fire spirit root in Ye Yunhan's body.
Later, Ye Qianjun even went so crazy as to start coveting Xu Weichen's Tianshui spiritual roots.
He secretly practiced a forbidden technique to deprive people of their spiritual roots. He wanted to deprive Xu Weichen of his spiritual roots and implant them into Ye Yunhan's body, and use Xu Weichen's Tianshui spiritual roots to consume the trace of fire spiritual roots in Ye Yunhan's body.
If his plan succeeded, the spiritual roots in Ye Yunhan's body might really be eliminated. Unfortunately, his crazy behavior was discovered by his Taoist partner, Xu Weichen's master's wife.
Master's wife was one of the few people in the world who treated him sincerely. Even after Ye Yunhan was born, Master's wife's care and protection for him did not diminish in the slightest. It was a rare warmth that he could feel in his youth.
The master's wife discovered Ye Qianjun's behavior and stopped him. It was not just a simple stop. Once the forbidden technique was activated, it would not stop unless the spiritual roots were taken away. The master's wife replaced him and made Ye Qianjun forcibly take away his own spiritual roots.
The master's wife was a cultivator who had lived for hundreds of years. After losing her spiritual roots, she lost all her cultivation and became an ordinary person. She died within a few days.
Before she died, she used her last breath to force Ye Qianjun to swear not to hurt Xu Weichen.
This is also the reason why Xu Weichen was still able to survive under Ye Qianjun's various tortures. Because of this incident, Ye Qianjun's jealousy towards Xu Weichen turned into hatred.
He and his wife met, got to know each other, and fell in love when they were young. After hundreds of years of companionship, his wife had long been the most important person in his life. But she chose to sacrifice herself for Xu Weichen, an unrelated outsider. How could he not hate her?
In addition, although his wife's spiritual roots can be barely used, the dual water and wood spiritual roots are ultimately no match for Xu Weichen's heavenly water spiritual roots. Although with the assistance of the Millennium Ice Lotus, Ye Yunhan's spiritual roots were successfully transformed into mutated ice spiritual roots, the hidden danger of that trace of fire spiritual roots still exists.
And Ye Yunhan completely hated Ye Qianjun because of this incident. From then on, he never called him "father" again, nor did he ever give him a good look.
This is the true meaning of losing both the wife and the son.
So many years have passed, and I wonder if Ye Qianjun will feel some regret when he thinks of what happened back then?
But based on Xu Weichen's understanding of Ye Qianjun, Ye Qianjun might hate him even more, right?
Because he is that kind of person!
