Ye Fei immediately looked at Ye Liuyun with pleading eyes, but Ye Liuyun just smiled and said...

"Xiao Fei, it's alright. This is my sister, my family, and your family too."

Ye Fei relaxed a little after hearing this.

Ye Ningxue then picked Ye Fei up in her arms.

"I'm so envious, so envious! I want a cute daughter too! Ah, eldest sister, second sister, even you have children now. Why am I so unlucky?" Ye Ningxue sighed.

Ye Liuyun was stunned when he heard this.

"Huh? Third Sister, you and your brother-in-law don't have any children yet?" Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

“No, your brother-in-law’s constitution is different from ordinary people, and he has difficulty conceiving. By the way, who is this senior?” Ye Ningxue answered casually, and then looked at Jiang Wanshan.

Jiang Wanshan laughed heartily.

"Haha, Miss, I am the young master's bodyguard. My name is Jiang Wanshan." Jiang Wanshan quickly introduced himself.

This surprised Ye Ningxue again. She had the cultivation of a Dao Palace Golden Core Realm cultivator, but she still couldn't see through the other party, which meant that the other party was much stronger than her. Such a master was actually serving as a guard for her younger brother. She began to develop a strong interest in her younger brother's experiences over the years.

"Oh, I see. Well then, Liuyun, let's go inside. It's too noisy here. Let's go to my place. I'm going to ask you what you've been doing all these decades." Ye Ningxue suggested.

Ye Liuyun nodded, and so they flew up with Ye Ningxue, heading towards the interior of the Ximen family.

However, as they flew, they encountered Ximen Tianyang, who was chasing after them.

"Hey? Third brother-in-law." Ye Liuyun quickly waved to Ximen Tianyang.

When Ximen Tianyang saw Ye Liuyun, he froze, and the image of a little devil immediately popped into his mind.

"This? It's Liu Yun, what brings him here?" Ximen Tianyang was stunned.

This should have been a happy occasion, but Ximen Tianyang was far from happy. These were his wife's family members, her own brothers. For the Ximen family to do something so humiliating to their legal wife would definitely make Ye Liuyun very dissatisfied.

"You brat, ignore him." Ye Liuyun originally wanted to stop and greet Ximen Tianyang, but his sister's words made his happy expression turn serious.

Although Ye Ningxue didn't say anything, she could clearly sense her sister's unhappiness and depression.

Ye Liuyun knew Ye Ningxue's personality all too well: a very cheerful, playful, and outgoing person.

However, judging from the situation just now, Ye Ningxue was obviously forcing a smile. It wasn't that she was unhappy to see Ye Liuyun, but rather that she had something unpleasant on her mind, which made her seem somewhat depressed.

Ye Liuyun followed Ye Ningxue past Ximen Tianyang, which made Ximen Tianyang very embarrassed.

Ximen Tianyang remained in place, watching Ye Liuyun and the others leave. Just then, a member of the Ximen family came to Ximen Tianyang.

"Young Master, Young Master, what are you doing here? The Patriarch is looking for you and wants you to prepare to welcome the new Madam," a female disciple of the Ximen family said anxiously as she approached Ximen Tianyang.

Ximen Tianyang was already very irritable, and now that Ye Liuyun had arrived, he felt that things would only become more complicated.

"This is so annoying. Go tell my father that I never agreed to marry Fang Yin. Whoever made the decision on their own will be allowed to marry her." Ximen Tianyang snorted and hurried back again.

He knew he couldn't change anything, but he still had to maintain his stance.

Let's take a look at Ye Liuyun's side.

"What's wrong, sister? Did you and brother-in-law have a fight? I sense something's off about the atmosphere," Ye Liuyun asked softly.

Ye Ningxue didn't really want to tell Ye Liuyun about her unhappiness, but something this big couldn't be kept secret forever.

"Oh! It's nothing. The Ximen family arranged a new marriage for your brother-in-law," Ye Ningxue replied, quite annoyed.

Ye Liuyun was taken aback, but she didn't think too much about it at the moment. After all, it was very normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines in this world, and it was even more normal in larger families. She had no reason to be dissatisfied with such a thing.

However, Ye Liuyun could tell that this matter was definitely not that simple. If it were just taking a concubine, it wouldn't be done so grandly. Taking a concubine should be a very low-key affair, because to distinguish it from taking a wife, it is usually done in a very discreet manner.

Such a commotion is a bit of an overreaction; I doubt even my own sister's wedding had such a grand spectacle.

When Ye Ningxue got married, the wedding was held in Jiangzhou Prefecture, and the scale of the ceremony was not large.

"Is taking a concubine really necessary to make such a fuss? Third Sister, tell me the truth, has Ximen Tianyang done something disgusting?" Ye Liuyun's eyes gradually turned unfriendly.

She wouldn't allow anyone to bully her older sister.

“Oh! It’s not your brother-in-law’s problem, it’s the family’s problem. The family wants to form a marriage alliance with the Blazing Sun Valley, and the other party requires that the marriage be to a direct descendant of the Ximen family. A disciple of the Ximen family, naturally, is your brother-in-law,” Ye Ningxue replied.

Alright, now that I've said that, Ye Liuyun understands everything.

Because of the other party's prominent status, the Ximen family would not possibly welcome her into the family as a concubine. It is highly likely that she would be welcomed into the Ximen family as a secondary wife.

A concubine is someone who is on equal footing with the principal wife. Apart from the difference in ranking, they are almost no different from the principal wife.

No wonder her sister looked so upset. This was a clear humiliation of Ye Ningxue. If the other woman were to join her sect, what would she be? Her future would be bleak, and her reputation would suffer.

"Is that so? Sister, what's your opinion?" Ye Liuyun asked.

In this matter, she was not qualified to directly stand up for her sister; she should at least consider Ye Ningxue's own opinion.

"Sigh! What can I say? Your brother-in-law and I are both cultivators, so it's difficult for us to have offspring. The family is bringing him another woman to increase the chances of reproduction. I'm a woman who hasn't given birth to any offspring of the Ximen family, so I have no right to stop it." Ye Ningxue was angry, but she wasn't unreasonable.

"Didn't the Ximen family consult with you?" Ye Liuyun asked again.

Ye Ningxue gets angry whenever this is mentioned.

"Discuss what? I only found out yesterday when I saw them preparing for the wedding that my husband is going to take a concubine as a concubine," Ye Ningxue said irritably.

To be honest, if the Ximen family had discussed it with her beforehand, she wouldn't have reacted so strongly. It's just that nothing was said, and it was all very sudden.

Of course, Ximen Tianyang must have known all along, but he just didn't dare to tell Ye Ningxue.

Soon they entered the valley where the Ximen family was located. The valley was very large, like a small city. Over the years, the Ximen family had divided the valley into two layers: the outer valley was where the branches of the family lived, and the inner valley was where the main branch of the Ximen family was located.

The relationship between collateral branches and the main branch is different from the relationship between collateral relatives and direct descendants.

The main lineage is the Ximen family, the lineage of the founding ancestor, while the side branch is the lineage of the brothers of the founding ancestor of the Ximen family.

The main lineage is further divided into direct descendants and collateral descendants.

"Is that so? That's a bit too much." Ye Liuyun's gaze turned hostile; she felt it necessary to teach the Ximen family a lesson.

She couldn't let the Ximen family look down on her sister, or on the Ye family.

Of course, she understood her sister. Although Ye Ningxue had a somewhat volatile temper, she could still distinguish right from wrong when it came to matters of principle. She would definitely choose to compromise herself so that her husband wouldn't lose face in front of the family and guests.

Ye Liuyun has already started thinking of ways to secretly sabotage the wedding. If the wedding goes ahead, how will her sister face the Ximen family in the future?

However, this matter is somewhat difficult to handle, because it is not easy for her to openly and honestly stop it, as the situation of the Ximen family and the Dongfang family are completely different concepts.

She couldn't go too far with her methods, so she had to come up with a way that wasn't too extreme, yet perfectly prevented Ximen Tianyang from taking a concubine.

"Hey? I've got it, let's do it this way." Ye Liuyun turned slightly to look at Ximen Tianyang behind him.

She had a quirky idea, but she definitely needed to get her brother-in-law's opinion first.

They soon arrived at the residence of Ximen Tianyang and Ye Ningxue.

"Sister! I have a way to help you solve this problem. Do you want to give it a try?" Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.

Ye Ningxue, who had just landed, was taken aback by Ye Liuyun's words before she even had a chance to tease Ye Fei.

"Stop it? How? Disrupt the wedding? Let's not, that's not appropriate." Ye Ningxue shook her head after asking a question.

Chapter 453 The Ximen Incident (Part Two) (4000 words + 18 Fire Coins Bonus Chapter)

Ye Ningxue was unaware of her younger brother's abilities and did not want to cause him any trouble. Moreover, she felt she had no reason to stop him.

Ye Liuyun could tell that her older sister lacked the confidence to stop her, not that she didn't want to, so she still wanted to stand up for her sister.

"Alright, since you don't want to pursue this matter, Third Sister, I can only go along with your wishes," Ye Liuyun said, feigning helplessness. But in reality, she still wanted to stop the marriage.

She didn't care about this Ximen family; the Ximen family wasn't her family. They couldn't possibly step on her sister's head. But she definitely couldn't tell Ye Ningxue about this behavior.

Ye Ningxue definitely wouldn't agree to Ye Liuyun doing this, and Ye Liuyun was also aware of this.

Just then, Ximen Tianyang returned to his residence.

"Haha! Liuyun, how did you find this place? Did your older sister tell you?" After returning, Ximen Tianyang immediately greeted Ye Liuyun with a hearty laugh.

Ye Liuyun glanced at Ye Ningxue, who was carrying Ye Fei into the house, and then stood at the doorway, arms crossed, looking at Ximen Tianyang who was walking over with a dissatisfied expression.

When Ximen Tianyang saw Ye Liuyun's expression, he knew that Ye Liuyun already knew everything.

"Long time no see, Third Brother-in-law. Come, come, let's catch up over here." Ye Liuyun glanced again at Ye Ningxue, who was playing with Ye Fei inside the house, and then said.

Ximen Tianyang knew that Ye Liuyun was definitely going to cause trouble, but he himself found it difficult to explain the matter. After all, it was the Ximen family that was bullying Ye Ningxue, and as a member of the Ximen family and Ye Ningxue's husband, he was the one primarily responsible.

After he followed Ye Liuyun to the side, Ximen Tianyang was about to explain something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Ye Liuyun suddenly punched Ximen Tianyang in the stomach. The punch was not light and made Ximen Tianyang gag.

"Ugh!" Ximen Tianyang clutched his stomach and collapsed to the ground.

"Hey! Keep your gagging down, don't let my sister hear you." After giving Ximen Tianyang a punch, Ye Liuyun told him to shut his mouth.

Ximen Tianyang understood why Ye Liuyun had hit him; he deserved the punch. However, Ye Liuyun hadn't used his full strength, only one-tenth of his power. If he had used his full strength, Ximen Tianyang would have killed him.

"You, you brat, we haven't seen each other for decades, and the first thing you do is punch me," Ximen Tianyang said, clearly annoyed.

"Well, this punch carries a bit of personal grudge. It's not just about your Ximen family bullying my sister, but also about you deceiving me. My eldest and second brother-in-laws are older, and you're about my age, so naturally I'll take my anger out on you," Ye Liuyun said seriously.

These words left Ximen Tianyang speechless. Indeed, he was four years older than Ye Liuyun, making them peers.

"You, oh dear, you really went too far. It seems I've become your brother-in-law's scapegoat." Ximen Tianyang struggled to his feet and then complained.

"Hmph! That punch was too light. Let me ask you, what's your opinion on this matter? Tell me the truth, do you really want to marry that so-called secondary wife?" Ye Liuyun asked, narrowing his eyes.

Ximen Tianyang was speechless upon hearing this, and then explained without hesitation.

“I’ve told your sister so many times that I’ve never even met Fang Yin, the youngest daughter of the Valley Master of Blazing Sun Valley. I’ve only seen a picture of her. Do you think I would agree to that? But you know, in a family like ours, it’s not up to me to refuse.” Ximen Tianyang complained.

Ye Liuyun could tell that Ximen Tianyang wasn't joking; he was clearly just as dissatisfied with the matter, but he couldn't refuse due to pressure from his family.

Even if he doesn't go to greet her, this woman will still enter the Ximen family. This is already a done deal, because the elders of both sides have already agreed that she will arrive at the Ximen family before dusk today.

"Hey! Fine, I'll take that as your honest opinion. But, Brother Ximen, I have to tell you, I have to find a way to ruin this marriage for your Ximen family. You don't mind, do you?" Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.

Ximen Tianyang was stunned, but he immediately replied with a serious expression.

“Kid, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but do you really have the ability to ruin this marriage? If you can, I’ll thank your ancestors for eight generations. But there’s one thing: absolutely no one should die, and the family can’t know it was you who did it.” Ximen Tianyang said with a serious and sincere expression.

He himself was truly helpless and powerless to change the situation, but that didn't mean he didn't want to refuse.

"Hehe, that's good to hear. Don't worry, leave this to me. I guarantee your family and the Bright Sun Valley won't be able to get married." Ye Liuyun revealed a sinister expression.

Looking at Ye Liuyun's gaze, Ximen Tianyang felt a chill run down his spine for some reason, and had a bad feeling.

"What exactly is your plan? Tell me, at least let me know what you're going to do." Ximen Tianyang had a headache.

"You don't need to do much. Just take this pill before the wedding. Don't worry, I guarantee that after I ruin the wedding, I'll restore everything to normal." Ye Liuyun chuckled and patted Ximen Tianyang on the shoulder, handing him a porcelain bottle containing the pill.

Ximen Tianyang accepted the pill in a daze. He originally wanted to ask what kind of pill it was, but Ye Liuyun had no intention of telling him.

Ye Liuyun was mainly worried that he would be too resistant, so she didn't want to talk to him for the time being.

The more Ximen Tianyang listened, the more uneasy he felt. Ye Liuyun had already walked towards the guest room, and Ximen Tianyang had no choice but to follow.

Upon entering the living room, they found that Ye Ningxue and Ye Fei were having a great time. Ye Fei was also giggling under the teasing of her playful older sister.

"What are you two whispering about?" Ye Ningxue asked immediately when she saw the two of them come in.

Ye Liuyun immediately chuckled.

"It's just a matter of catching up, since we haven't seen each other for decades, and also to complain about how you older sisters and brothers-in-law lied to me," Ye Liuyun said with a displeased expression.

As soon as the topic came up, Ye Ningxue didn't want to take the blame.

"Don't come looking for me about this. I'm innocent. I told you back then that it wasn't right to keep it from you, but who knew that my eldest and second eldest sisters would say that we only have one son in our family, and we can't let our youngest brother get involved in something so dangerous. The three of us sisters are enough," Ye Ningxue quickly said.

"Tch! Yes, yes, you're innocent, I'm the most pitiful one." Ye Liuyun shrugged helplessly.

Meanwhile, as for the head of the Ximen family, the higher-ups of the Ximen family must already know about Ye Liuyun's arrival.

This is not the residence of the head of the household, Simon.

"Oh! Ningxue's younger brother, Ye Liuyun, has come to see her from Nanling?" Upon hearing this news, Ximen Chuan immediately frowned and looked at a noblewoman in her early thirties beside him.

“Yes, Master, Young Master Ye has already been taken to the residence of the eldest young master and his wife by the eldest young mistress. Shall we invite Young Master Ye to pay his respects to the Master and his wife?” said a servant of the Ximen family.

Ximen Chuan and his wife thought about the person for a moment, then shook their heads.

"Forget it, if they want Ye Liuyun to come and pay his respects to us, they will naturally bring him over. However, at this juncture, it's best to let it go to avoid any trouble. But we still need to call the eldest young master over. This marriage alliance with the Hao Ri Chi Yang Valley means he can't act recklessly. We'll have to bring him here even if we have to tie him up," Madam Ximen said in a deep voice.

The servant of the Ximen family looked troubled.

"Master, are we really going to kidnap the eldest young master?"

This is the eldest young master! If they go too far, what good will it be for them, the servants, once Ximen Tianyang becomes the head of the family? They dare not do such a thing.
