"Lingxi, it's not that I can't let go!" Ye Lingtian said with a bitter smile.

"If you're hesitating like this, then what is it if not reluctance?" Lingxi sneered. "Your son has already agreed that as long as you divorce that woman, our family can reunite. But you're hesitating, isn't that reluctance?"

"Heh!" Ye Lingtian laughed bitterly at her words. It wasn't that he couldn't let her go; it was that he simply couldn't divorce her!

Cao Xuerou's love for him was deeply ingrained. If Ye Lingtian divorced her, Cao Xuerou might end her own life!

Ye Lingtian had already hurt Lingxi and did not want to hurt another woman.

"Do you love that woman?" Ye Chen looked at Ye Lingtian and suddenly asked.

"Love!" Ye Lingtian said without hesitation.

"True love?" Ye Chen frowned.

"True love!" Ye Lingtian replied.

"..."

Ye Lingtian's earnestness made Ye Chen feel heavy-hearted, as things were becoming more complicated.

"True love?" Lingxi laughed sadly. "Ye Lingtian, I was grateful for you saving my life back then, so I gave you my purity and bore you a son. Now you're abandoning your wife and child, falling in love with another woman. Are you being fair to me and our son?"

"In your eyes, is that woman more important than our mother and son?"

Lingxi's personality was somewhat arrogant, which made life difficult for Ye Lingtian. But at most, she was a spoiled wife. Ye Lingtian's actions were a blatant betrayal!

"Lingxi, I love you too!" Ye Lingtian said.

"Haha, you say you love me?" Lingxi said angrily. "Your heart is thinking of another woman, but your mouth says you love me. This is like having your cake and eating it too!"

"I feel sorry for myself, for our son, and for that woman. You despicable bastard!"

"..."

Confronted with Lingxi's accusations, Ye Lingtian was rendered speechless. Because Lingxi was right, he wanted it all.

In fact, given Ye Lingtian's status, not to mention finding one concubine, finding a whole group would be perfectly reasonable.

But Ye Lingtian's mistake was finding a strong-willed wife!

Lingxi was noble, far superior to Ye Lingtian, and her personality was fiercely determined and possessive.

Once Ye Lingtian became her man, he had to obey her, without the slightest thought of betrayal. But Ye Lingtian couldn't bear the loneliness and left Lingxi to find a concubine... so he was in a bad situation!

"Lingxi, I still love you..."

"Pa!"

Ye Lingtian wanted to explain and salvage the situation, but Lingxi gave him no chance. She slapped Ye Lingtian across the face.

"Son, did you see that?" Ye Lingtian held his face and looked at Ye Chen. "Your mother treats me like this. How can I not find a concubine?"

"..."

"Ye Lingtian, don't use our son to pressure me!" Lingxi said. "For so many years, I've been waiting for you in the Holy Flame Palace, waiting for you to finish playing around and come back to me. But you've let me down too much!"

"From now on, we'll go our separate ways, and have nothing to do with each other!"

Seeing Ye Lingtian's hesitation, Lingxi seemed to make a decision, cutting off all ties with him.

"Lingxi, what nonsense are you talking about? We're already married. How can we have nothing to do with each other?!" Ye Lingtian said in a low voice.

"How can you be worthy of being a husband?" Lingxi sneered.

"You..." Ye Lingtian opened his mouth, wanting to speak but stopping, his face full of sorrow.

Ye Lingtian and Lingxi had been entangled for years, and every meeting ended in a fight. Despite their poor relationship, they had never spoken harshly. Lingxi now wanting to break off all ties was unprecedented, leaving Ye Lingtian at a loss on how to respond.

"For so many years, Chaoyang has been pursuing me, but I've remained faithful, waiting for you. But with your coldness today, I can't be too rigid," Lingxi muttered.

"Chaoyang?" Ye Lingtian's face changed.

"Yes, Chaoyang!" Lingxi looked at Ye Lingtian coldly, with a mocking expression.

"Son, your mother wants to find you a new father. Chaoyang is a young Saint from an ancient forbidden area. He has admired your mother for many years... your mother wants to be with him and abandon us!" Ye Lingtian was truly anxious.

"I don't want to interfere in your matters, and I can't!" Ye Chen had been a spectator, not wanting to get involved.

Chaoyang Saint might adore Lingxi, but Lingxi definitely didn't love Chaoyang.

Lingxi bringing up Chaoyang was probably to provoke Ye Lingtian, to make him anxious, purely out of spite.

Moreover, Ye Chen saw that his parents were like enemies; neither could abandon the other! Even if they were at odds for a while, they would eventually reconcile.

As for Ye Lingtian's concubine and Lingxi mentioning Chaoyang… Ye Chen couldn't interfere and could only let them decide for themselves.

"Lingxi, don't go to Chaoyang. That guy has married eighteen wives already. If you marry him, you'll be the nineteenth..."

"Ye Lingtian, we have no ties anymore. Don't appear in front of me, get lost!"

"..."

Ye Lingtian and Lingxi were making a lot of noise, while Ye Chen quietly watched from the side, feeling the atmosphere of "home".

The reason Ye Chen came to Canglan Realm was to find his father and mother, and also to enhance his strength.

Now, Ye Chen's strength had increased, and he could definitely fight against a Saint King. Even in the vast and boundless Canglan Realm, he was considered a peerless figure! Moreover, Ye Chen had found his biological father and mother... He wanted to leave!

However, Ye Chen still needed to make an explanation before leaving!

Leng Aofu, Qin Yan, Qing Luo, Feng Wu, Lingyun, Qi Li, Qing Ya, Qian Qiu... these women were all waiting for him, waiting for his explanation.

There were too many mysteries surrounding Ye Chen, which had long aroused the women's suspicions. But Ye Chen felt that the time was not right, so he had been hiding his identity.

Now, as Ye Chen truly rose to prominence and was about to leave Canglan Realm, it was time to come clean with the women.

...

In the end, Ye Lingtian and Lingxi left.

Ye Chen opened his heart to them, exchanged feelings, and made them very satisfied.

Moreover, the daughter-in-law sent so many gifts, making them extremely happy, to the point their steps felt light and airy.

"I hope the next time we meet, you two can get along harmoniously and not be so confrontational!"

Ye Chen called Lingxi "mother" several times, which meant he had forgiven her and accepted her as his mother.

However, Ye Chen did not acknowledge Ye Lingtian as his father, because Ye Lingtian still had a concubine at home, and Ye Chen did not want to have another mother.

But just because Ye Chen didn't recognize Ye Lingtian now, it didn't mean he wouldn't recognize him for life.

When Ye Lingtian resolved everything and received Lingxi's forgiveness, Ye Chen would kowtow and call him father!

"Ye Chen, where did you go just now?"

As soon as Ye Chen returned to Baihua Palace, Qin Yan, Leng Aofu, Feng Wu, and Tao Xi Yao came looking for him.

"I persuaded Ye Lingtian and Lingxi to leave!" Ye Chen said.

"Persuaded to leave?" The women were taken aback.

Ye Lingtian and Lingxi wanted to take Ye Chen away, but they were expelled by the Saints. However, these two were very persistent. Even after being expelled, they did not leave but waited outside the palace for an opportunity.

This matter caused quite a stir; many disciples had heard about it, and naturally, Feng Wu and the others knew about it as well.

But Ye Chen's attitude toward Ye Lingtian and Lingxi was very strange.

Ye Chen had a fiery temper, even dared to fight the Saints. Why didn't he drive them away forcefully? Instead, he persuaded them to leave? Why was Ye Chen being so gentle? Could it be that Ye Chen fancied Lingxi?

"What are you thinking?!" Ye Chen saw the women's expressions and knew they were overthinking it. "Ye Lingtian and Lingxi have a connection with me, so I didn't use force against them!"

"What connection?" Feng Wu asked.

"Hehe, what exactly it is, you will soon know!" Ye Chen said. "You go call everyone, summon your masters, senior sisters, and uncles, I want to hold a major meeting!"

Ye Chen wanted to return to Earth, but he had to settle everything first so he could leave with peace of mind.

Leng Aofu, Qin Yan, Feng Wu, Tao Xi Yao, Tian Yu, Qing Ya, Lingyun, Qi Li... Ye Chen owed them all an explanation.

Besides, if Ye Chen wanted to establish the foundation of the Heavenly Court, he needed these women to assist him, and he had to reveal everything to them.

"Ye Chen, you..."

The women glanced at each other, all looking a bit surprised and doubtful.

They all sensed the secrets Ye Chen held, but Ye Chen had never wanted to disclose them. Why was he willing to reveal everything now?

"Go call Lingyun and the others, and be careful not to be discovered!" Ye Chen said.

"Ye Chen, let's put these matters aside for now. Master Jue Qing wants to see you, you should go meet the Palace Master first!" Qin Yan said.

"Master Jue Qing wants to see me?" Ye Chen said in surprise.

After the enthronement ceremony, Master Jue Qing had secluded herself, seemingly seeking a breakthrough. Why did she suddenly want to see him?

"Yes, my master plans to enter seclusion and wants to see you to entrust you with some matters!" Feng Wu interjected.

"Seclusion?" Ye Chen frowned. "Master Jue Qing is already at the Peak of the Holy Realm, is she planning to become a Human King?"

"My master's cultivation is unfathomable; who knows what she might achieve. You'll know once you see her!" Feng Wu said.

"Uh."

Master Jue Qing's cultivation was rather impressive; she was at the pinnacle of being a Saint, just a step away from becoming a Human King.

Ye Chen took Master Jue Qing seriously, worried she might see through everything and discover his Heavenly Emperor identity.

However, Ye Chen had created the Five Styles Heavenly Emperor Fist, the Heavenly Emperor heart began to condense, and his cultivation could rival a Human King, thus his worries gradually lessened.

But if Master Jue Qing became a Human King, it would absolutely be a huge threat. Even if Ye Chen wasn't afraid, he needed to be cautious!
