"What's wrong with you all?"

After Ye Chen arrived and saw all the wives, his heart warmed instantly. However, before he could fully bask in the warmth, he noticed something was amiss! Immediately, Liu Shihua cried and ran to him, burying her head in his chest and sobbing, leaving Ye Chen dumbfounded.

"Ye Chen, our children are gone, Ye is gone, and even Ye is gone!"

Liu Shihua cried fiercely, her words were even more terrifying, directly scaring Ye Chen into a stupor. Their children were gone?

"Shihua, don't cry. Tell me what happened?" Ye Chen steadied his emotions and asked.

"They were taken away, and I was also injured. I'm really useless, can't even protect them... boohoo." Liu Shihua held onto Ye Chen, buried her head in his chest, and cried her heart out.

"..."

Liu Shihua cried intensely, her words were incoherent, leaving everyone speechless. However, Ye Chen wasn't impatient; rather, he felt a pang of sympathy.

Ye Chen didn't know what had happened, but one thing he knew was that his woman was upset!

"Alright, alright, Shihua, be good, don't cry!" Ye Chen hugged Liu Shihua, gently patted her back, and softly comforted her.

"I lost my daughters. I'm truly useless, boohoo..." Liu Shihua continued crying, guilt-ridden.

"..."

Liu Shihua cried while only Ye Chen comforted her; the others stayed silent, creating an odd atmosphere.

Ye was abducted, and as Ye's mother, Liu Shihua naturally cried!

Moreover, Liu Shihua blamed herself for not protecting her daughters, unable to be persuaded otherwise at this moment.

Since that's the case, let her cry and vent her feelings!

Yet seeing Ye Chen comforting Liu Shihua warmed the hearts of the women; this was their man, who loved them the most!

Though Ye Chen was affectionate, he truly cared for them all! Every one of them mattered absolutely to him!

Furthermore, Ye Chen was their life, their sky, their god!

As soon as Ye Chen appeared, the women regained their backbone, feeling no fear even if the sky collapsed.

"Shihua, stop crying and tell me what happened?"

"Where are our daughters, why can't I find them?"

"Ah ah ah, what do I have to do for you not to cry?"

Liu Shihua cried intensely, and Ye Chen felt heartbroken, continuously comforting her.

However, Liu Shihua wouldn't listen to persuasion and just kept crying, leaving Ye Chen feeling powerless and somewhat impatient.

Moreover, all the women had hidden injuries, and their daughters were nowhere to be seen, leaving Ye Chen bewildered and anxious!

"Liu Shihua, will you stop?" Zhang Xinlan spoke. "If you keep crying, we'll lose valuable time, and our daughters might be in real danger!"

"Then I won't cry!" Indeed, with Zhang Xinlan's words, Liu Shihua stopped crying, lifted her face, and looked at Ye Chen.

"What's up?" Ye Chen asked with patience.

"Saint Linglong took them away and wants you to exchange the Great Saint status for them!" Liu Shihua said succinctly.

"Saint Linglong abducted Ye and Ye, asking me to redeem them with my Great Saint status?" Ye Chen repeated and asked.

"Yes!"

Liu Shihua nodded, no longer crying.

Crying a little can be soothing, but crying too much can harm one's health!

Women can cry when weak, but can't cry continuously, or it would be annoying.

"Linglong... What an interesting woman, using such a trick!" Ye Chen wasn't panicked; he even smiled and then looked at Qing Luo. "Qing Luo, were your injuries also caused by her?"

"Yes." Qing Luo answered.

"She's also a ruthless character, killing even her own daughter!"

Ye Chen laughed again but with anger in his laughter, clearly fired up.

Family was Ye Chen's reverse scale; whoever dared to touch it would face his wrath!

Moreover, Ye and Ye were so young, yet Saint Linglong dared to abduct them, driving Ye Chen completely furious!

"Ye Chen, when will you rescue them?" Yun Zheyue asked.

Saint Linglong captured Ye and Ye, equating to grabbing their vital spot, which made Yun Zheyue very uncomfortable at heart.

Besides, who knows if he would go insane and harm Ye and Ye?

"I'll go now!" Ye Chen knew this matter couldn't be delayed for even a moment, or if any mishap occurred, he would regret it forever.

"Did you really get injured when battling the Heavenly Dao?" Yun Zheyue asked again, her top concern.

"No problem." Ye Chen didn't particularly explain; he only shook his head, signaling he's okay.

Xiahou Chun shared many secrets of heaven and earth with him, which shocked Ye Chen and left him deeply unsettled.

Ye Chen became more cautious, not wanting to stand out and attract attention.

Therefore, he had to keep pretending and not reveal the truth to prevent inviting calamity.

"Really okay?" All the women were very concerned about Ye Chen, worried about his health.

"I'm fine!" Ye Chen replied. "I'm going to rescue our daughters now, don't worry, just wait for me!"

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, he vanished, using the technique that conquers distances, and left directly.

Additionally, Ye Chen seemed to foresee something, knowing Saint Linglong's location, so he left confidently and decisively.

"..."

Ye Chen's straightforward departure left the women feeling a bit empty.

However, realizing Ye Chen hadn't really left but had gone to rescue Ye and Ye, they recovered.

"Ye Chen, you must bring them back!" Liu Shihua prayed in her heart.

...

The night unfolds.

In the northwest of Huaxia, a mountain cave glows with firelight as a woman, accompanied by two young girls, gathers around the campfire—barbecue time!

The woman is Saint Linglong, and naturally, the young girls are Ye and Xiao Ye.

After injuring Qing Luo, Saint Linglong brought them here.

As the sky grew darker, Ye and Xiao Ye felt hungry, so they started cooking.

Saint Linglong possesses a Qiankun Bag, packed with numerous ingredients, enough to make a banquet.

However, being a powerful woman, how could Saint Linglong possibly make a fire and cook food?

Therefore, this arduous but magnificent task fell upon Ye and Xiao Ye.

At this moment, Saint Linglong appeared rather glum, handing over chicken legs, wings, and skewers from the Qiankun Bag, letting the two chefs go wild.

Also, Saint Linglong somewhat regretted abducting Ye and Xiao Ye!

These two little troubles were too rambunctious and showed no signs of being intimidated, leaving Saint Linglong quite hurt.

"Ah, Ye, your chicken leg is burning, hurry, stop grilling, or it'll be scorched!" Xiao Ye exclaimed.

"I like it charred!" Ye ignored the advice, continuing to grill.

"Shameless!" Xiao Ye scoffed.

"How am I shameless?" Ye retorted.

"If I call you shameless, you're shameless. Why question it?" Xiao Ye replied.

"..."

"Aunt Linglong, hurry up and find the cumin powder for me, I'm about to finish grilling my wings!" Xiao Ye called out again.

"Here!" Saint Linglong found a small bottle and handed it over.

"You sprinkle it for me!" Xiao Ye said.

"I can't!" Saint Linglong replied.

As a peerless female saint, Linglong only needed to look beautiful and cute, why bother with sprinkling cumin?

"You can't even sprinkle cumin powder, do you still want to marry?" Xiao Ye asked.

"What does sprinkling cumin powder have to do with marriage?" Saint Linglong glared.

"Why not?" Xiao Ye replied. "You're a woman, and such a beautiful woman at that, yet you can't sprinkle cumin powder. Isn't that quite excessive?"

"Who would want to marry a woman who can't sprinkle cumin?" Xiao Ye teased Saint Linglong while grilling wings.

"You're talking nonsense!" Saint Linglong responded angrily. "So what if I can't sprinkle cumin, there are many who want to marry me!"

"I'm young, don't try to fool me!" Xiao Ye exclaimed with widened eyes, looking adorably naive.

"You're driving me crazy!" Saint Linglong glared at Xiao Ye, nearly losing her mind, practically wanting to spank her and teach her a painful lesson!

"What, you want to hit me?" Xiao Ye, impertinent beyond her years, spoke. "Don't blame me for not warning you, my dad loves me dearly. You can ransom me, but if you dare hurt me... not only will you get nothing, but my dad will kill you!"

"..."

Saint Linglong felt even more enraged upon hearing this, but had to admit Xiao Ye was right; Linglong dared not harm them.

"Linglong, come over and sprinkle some cumin for me!" Ye shouted.

"Why should I sprinkle cumin for you? What makes you think you can order me around?" Saint Linglong was furious, almost seething.

"We're hostages now, if you don't serve us well, how can you use us to threaten my dad?" Ye justifiably declared.

"You two little brats!"

The sisters were each more loathsome than the other, practically treating her like a servant, driving Saint Linglong mad.

She, a dignified saint king, was being bossed around by two children. If word got out, her reputation would be ruined!

However, even if Saint Linglong's anger was difficult to calm, she dared not genuinely act against the sisters!

Ye and Xiao Ye were just children and wouldn't normally cause Linglong fear, but their father was too formidable!

Linglong's decision to abduct Ye and Xiao Ye was already a huge risk, possibly leading to life-and-death danger.

However, kidnapping and harm are different matters; taking Ye and Xiao Ye might bring unanticipated wealth and benefit!

But if she dared harm them, she would just be courting disaster! Ye Chen would definitely kill her!

So, even though Linglong kidnapped them, she treated them with good food and drink, not daring to truly harm them.

Yet, Ye and Xiao Ye were mischievous, so abducting them only brought Saint Linglong her own misery!

"Are you going to sprinkle or not?" Xiao Ye spoke up. "If you don't, we won't eat! And if we starve to death, how will you threaten my dad?"

"..."

Listening to Xiao Ye's childish threats, Saint Linglong was about to explode; these two little rascals!

"Hurry up!"

Ye was raised single-handedly by Yun Zheyue, and her character was as aloof as Yun Zheyue's, exuding aloofness in every word and action.

However, due to her young age, the aloof demeanor lacks authority, instead making her seem charmingly cute.

Ultimately, Saint Linglong succumbed, lowered her royal stature, and sprinkled cumin powder for the sisters.

"That's more like it!" Xiao Ye smiled contentedly, her eyes curving into crescents.

"I want some peace and quiet." Saint Linglong said after sprinkling the cumin powder.

These two kids are too tormenting, practically little demons, making Saint Linglong desire to flee.

"You want some peace and quiet?" Xiao Ye asked.

"Yes!" Saint Linglong exhaled deeply.

"Who is Peace and Quiet?" Xiao Ye queried.
