Extra: Daddy’s Troubles (IV)

Ye Bufan had just settled Xiao Yezi's matter and comforted his daughter when he received a call from his mother, Ouyang Lan, whose tone was very unkind, "You come over here!"

"Okay, I'll be right there."

He hung up the phone feeling a bit bewildered. He hadn't done anything, so why did his mother sound unhappy? Could it be that Xiao Yezi's matter had been found out? It shouldn't be so fast.

With a belly full of suspicion, he quickly arrived at Ouyang Lan's residence. Upon entering, he saw that besides his mother, Situ Dianmo and his son, Ye Dianhui, were also there.

Ouyang Lan's face was indeed not looking good, Situ Dianmo's face was stern, and Ye Dianhui was even more dejected. The atmosphere in the room was a bit strange.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Ye Bufan was a bit lost.

Ouyang Lan glared at him: "How can you be such a father? You have so many wives, but not a single son. Don't you know to care for Dianhui and do something for him?"

Ye Bufan was speechless. Hearing it was about this, he felt relieved knowing it wasn't a big deal.

"Mom, my wives were all brought back by my own ability. Can he blame others if he lacks the ability?"

Ouyang Lan patted him on the shoulder: "Why not blame you? Xiao Hui had a girlfriend, and everything was going well, but because of you, she was rejected by her Family!"

Ye Bufan was a bit puzzled: "What is this all about? What does it have to do with me?"

He kicked Ye Dianhui's backside, "What's going on with you, kid? Explain it clearly to me."

The current Ye Dianhui was just over twenty years old, with a face seven parts similar to Ye Bufan's; he was also a handsome young man.

"Dad, it's like this…"

Ye Dianhui recounted the whole story. He met a girl named Zhao Muyue while training in Kunlun Continent. They fell in love at first sight and quickly became a couple.

After a few months of getting along, Zhao Muyue took him directly back to her Family, a large Family in Tianwu State of Kunlun Continent.

Originally, the Zhao Family members also greatly admired him and were very enthusiastic, but after learning about his parents' situation, they directly refused and drove him out.

And Zhao Muyue was confined, strictly forbidden from meeting him again in the future.

Ye Dianhui was full of grievances, not knowing where he fell short, and even less willing to give up Zhao Muyue, so he came back to his Family for help.

Ouyang Lan snorted: "Did you hear that? It's all because of you. No matter what method you use today, you must solve this matter for my Grandson."

Among his many Grandsons and Granddaughters, Ye Dianhui was the closest to her, which is why he came here after returning.

"Zhao Family? I haven't provoked this Family before?"

Ye Bufan, however, was utterly confused. The Zhao Family of Tianwu State, he had never even heard of them, let alone offended them.

Moreover, with his current reputation, major powers all knew the prestige of Immortal Saint Ancestor. They would be scrambling to curry favor, so how could they reject a marriage because of him?

At this moment, Situ Dianmo gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Son, tell your father what that girl's mother's name is?"

Ye Dianhui said, "Oh, her name is Chu Lingxi."

"What?"

Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment, "Chu Lingxi? Does she look particularly like your mother?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that's right, they look almost identical."

Ye Dianhui nodded repeatedly. He was extremely surprised when he first saw Chu Lingxi, not expecting someone to look so much like his mother.

However, later, due to the immense blow he suffered from Zhao Muyue's situation, he became dispirited and forgot to mention this matter.

Ye Bufan rubbed his head, feeling a bit helpless. The world is so vast; he never expected his son to meet Chu Lingxi's daughter and fall in love at first sight.

Ouyang Lan didn't know these things before, and seeing his reaction, she reached out and pinched him, "Who is Chu Lingxi? Did you provoke another girl?"

"No, Mom, this has nothing to do with me."

Ye Bufan was full of helplessness. Although his relationship with Chu Lingxi was good back then, that was all it was. If something had truly happened between them, then there would be no son to speak of.

Ouyang Lan said discontentedly, "I don't care. You go figure out a way now. Anyway, you must bring this Granddaughter-in-law back. You can't let my Grandson suffer because of you."

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me."

Ye Bufan secretly sighed, being a father is truly not easy. He just finished dealing with his daughter's matter and now has to busy himself with his son's marriage.

But no matter what, he still had to step forward in this matter and explain any misunderstandings to Chu Lingxi.

Subsequently, he took Situ Dianmo and Ye Dianhui, the three of them, to leave Earth and appear in Kunlun Continent.

It had been almost thirty years since he last saw Chu Lingxi, and they had no contact. He first found Old Man Li Daoran to understand the situation.

It turned out that after his Ascension, Shui Mu University became the top academy in the entire Kunlun Continent. As one of the first batch of veteran Disciples, Chu Lingxi's status also rose.

By chance, she met Zhao Tuotu, a Disciple from Tianwu State. The other party fell in love at first sight, and the Zhao Family was also very satisfied, so they sent someone to the Chu Family to propose marriage.

The Zhao Family originated from Tianwu State and possessed great strength. Although it was just a Family, it was no less powerful than an eight-star Sect.

For the ordinary Chu Family in Tianluo State, this was a great stroke of luck, and they naturally would not refuse.

Although Chu Lingxi hesitated somewhat, she ultimately agreed. Thus, the two Families formed a marriage alliance, and she officially married into the Zhao Family. Even the entire Chu Family relocated to Tianwu State.

As for Zhao Muyue, she was the biological daughter of Chu Lingxi and Zhao Tuotu.

The situation was clear. It was natural for a man to marry and a woman to be given in marriage, so Chu Lingxi's marriage was not unexpected.

However, the doubt in Ye Bufan's heart remained unsolved. His current identity and status in the cultivation world were self-evident, and his relationship with Chu Lingxi was also quite good, so why did they refuse this marriage when they heard it was his son?

"Let's go to the Zhao Family now and ask her to clarify the matter."

"It's not appropriate for you to go like this."

Situ Dianmo stopped him, "She is now the Zhao Family's daughter-in-law. It might not be appropriate for you to visit her privately like this."

"This…"

Ye Bufan thought about it and realized she was right. Kunlun Continent was not like Earth; the social customs were not as open, and Chu Lingxi was no longer the Chu Lingxi of the past. Visiting her privately indeed seemed impolite.

"Then what do you suggest?"

Situ Dianmo said, "It's simple. Since it's a major marriage matter for their children, just go directly to propose marriage."

Perhaps their previous refusal was also because they felt our sincerity was not enough."

"You're right!"

Ye Bufan nodded, feeling that it seemed to be the case; otherwise, he couldn't find any other reason for the refusal.

Zhao City, in the entire Tianwu State, was considered a medium-sized city. The fact that it could be named after a Family's surname showed the strength of the Zhao Family here.

In the center of the city was a magnificent mansion, which was where the Zhao Family resided. Not only did it cover a vast area, but the Family was also thriving with a large population, with thousands of servants, housekeepers, and guards.

Just as everyone was busy, a clear voice resounded throughout the mansion.

"Ye Bufan pays his respects to the Zhao Family, and requests an audience with the Family Head!"
