Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

"Ye Kai is my father, and my mother should be called Bei Ming Piaoxu. She is a direct descendant of your Bei Ming family, right?" Ye Liuyun replied.

After hearing this, the guard looked surprised. Ye Kai had been with the Beiming family for decades, so it was impossible for the Beiming family not to recognize him.

Furthermore, since Ye Liuyun can name his father and mother, it's unlikely he's mistaken.

"This? It really is Young Master. Young Master, please wait a moment. We are from a collateral branch and have never met you before. We can only inform Miss Piaoxu and Young Master Ye Kai to come and pick you up."

Although the guards were very polite, they still didn't let Ye Liuyun in directly, but that was the normal thing to do.

"Okay, sure." Ye Liuyun nodded.

After greeting Ye Liuyun, the guard walked to the side, took out his communication magic item, and first contacted Ye Liuyun's uncle, Beiming Chengfeng. He did not contact Beiming Piaoxu directly.

A moment later, in a beautifully decorated cultivation room of the Beiming family, a young man who looked very much like Beiming Xuan was seen cultivating in peace.

This person is Bei Ming Chengfeng, the eldest son of Bei Ming Bo, the current head of the Bei Ming family.

Suddenly, Bei Ming Chengfeng noticed that his identity token was trembling, so he opened his eyes and quickly picked it up to take a look. What he saw left him stunned for a long time.

"What? This kid actually came to Beiyuan in person?" Bei Ming Chengfeng was stunned. After thinking for a moment, he immediately stood up and left the cultivation room.

Now that his nephew has arrived, he'll definitely have to inform his sister and brother-in-law.

Although she found it a bit strange, she didn't think anyone might be impersonating her, so she had the guard at the door bring the person in first, and then she went to inform Bei Ming Piaoxu herself.

With Bei Ming Chengfeng's permission, the guards at the gate immediately stepped forward and spoke to Ye Liuyun.

"Young Master, please come with me and your entourage. Young Master Chengfeng has already informed your mother and father. He asked me to take you directly to Miss Piaoxu and Young Master Ye Kai's residence."

Ye Liuyun smiled and nodded, then gestured for Ye Fei to lead Jiang Wanling inside.

"Oh, Young Master Chengfeng? Was he the first person you notified? I wonder what Chengfeng's relationship is with my mother?" Ye Liuyun asked, somewhat puzzled.

Since the other party did not notify his mother immediately, but was a stranger, it is clear that this person is someone who has influence in the Beiming family and must be very close to his parents.

Therefore, Ye Liuyun thought that the other party might be his mother's siblings, or someone from his father's generation.

The guards of the Beiming family didn't think there was anything wrong with Ye Liuyun asking this question, because they had never seen Ye Liuyun before. In other words, this was Ye Liuyun's first time visiting the Beiming family, so it was normal for him not to know the hierarchical relationships within the Beiming family.

“Young Master, Young Master Chengfeng is your mother’s elder brother, that is, your maternal uncle. Today, a major event occurred in the Northern Plains, and most of the family members have gone out. Currently, Young Master Beiming Chengfeng and your maternal grandfather, the head of the Beiming family, are in charge of the family affairs,” the guard explained.

Ye Liuyun understood.

Let's take another look at where Bei Ming Piao Xu and Ye Kai live.

"What? Liu Yun is here? Big brother? You're not kidding, are you?" Bei Ming Piao Xu's face was filled with surprise and delight.

Ye Kai, who was standing to the side, was equally surprised.

You must understand that this is the Northern Plains, not the Southern Ridge. Their son is in the cultivation world of the Southern Ridge. Ever since the day they left the Southern Ridge, they have been mentally prepared that they may never see each other again in this lifetime.

"It shouldn't be fake. Who would impersonate this kid for no reason?" Bei Ming Chengfeng laughed.

The couple nodded excitedly, and then followed Bei Ming Chengfeng away from their residence.

As for Ye Liuyun, she has already entered the inner city. Well, there's nothing particularly special about entering the inner city. It feels similar to the outer city, except that the buildings are more exquisite, and almost all of them have independent courtyards.

This place is full of cultivators, not a single mortal, but their lifestyle seems not much different from that of the mortals in the outer city.

There were many children of varying ages on the streets; those in the inner city must all be members of the Beiming family, or at least people related to the Beiming family by blood.

However, this place is the residence of a collateral branch of the Beiming family; the more prominent and grand mansion in front is the residence of the direct line.

The sudden entry of an outsider into the inner city caused the young members of the Beiming family on the streets to look at Ye Liuyun with curiosity.

Because the Beiming family has strict rules regarding clothing and appearance, and the Beiming family is not only a family but also a sect.

Family members all wore white clothes with blue patterns. Those with simple patterns were usually collateral relatives, while those with more complex patterns were important figures in the collateral relatives.

It's clear that there's a strict hierarchy here. This inner city houses over 100,000 members of the Beiming family, and without strict rules and regulations, it would be extremely difficult to manage.

"The atmosphere seems alright." This was Ye Liuyun's first impression of the Beiming family. It wasn't too oppressive, and the streets were filled with the laughter of children, exuding a strong sense of everyday life, somewhat reminiscent of his childhood in Qixia Town.

After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the gate of the mansion where the direct descendants of the Beiming family lived.

When Ye Liuyun was still dozens of meters away from the gate of the mansion, she saw three people standing at the gate. Upon closer inspection, a look of joy and happiness appeared on her face.

She led Ye Fei away, and Bei Ming Piaoxu and Ye Kai, who had been waiting at the door for a few minutes, also saw the familiar face approaching from afar.

"It really is Yun'er, my husband, look, it really is Yun'er!" Bei Ming Piaoxu was so excited that she was about to cry.

They hadn't seen each other for nearly sixty or seventy years, so it would be a lie to say they weren't excited. Ye Liuyun was also very excited, but this was the Beiming family, and she wasn't familiar with the situation here, so it was best to remain rational and calm.

As Ye Liuyun gradually approached the two, Bei Ming Piaoxu couldn't contain her impatience any longer and ran directly towards Ye Liuyun, quickly arriving in front of him.

Ye Liuyun also stopped. After staring into Ye Liuyun's eyes for a while, Bei Ming Piaoxu couldn't help but reach out and touch Ye Liuyun's face.

When his mother touched his cheek, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but let his emotions flow.

"Mother? I've finally found you." Ye Liuyun grasped Bei Ming Piaoxu's hand and smiled slightly.

The moment Bei Ming Piaoxu came into contact with Ye Liuyun, the bond between mother and child was strong, and she was completely certain that this was her son.

Upon realizing this, she burst into tears and hugged her son tightly.

Silence speaks louder than words. When Ye Liuyun first came to this world, she always felt that she didn't belong here and that there was an insurmountable gap between her and her relatives in this world. But after living in this world for a hundred years, her mindset changed completely.

"Yun'er, it really is you!" Bei Ming Piaoxu cried with joy.

This was the first time in decades that Ye Liuyun had felt her mother's warmth and affection.

"Yes, it's me, Mother. However, although I suggested you move away from Qixia Town back then, I never expected you would all disappear. If I hadn't accidentally learned that my brother-in-law was related to the Nangong family, I might not have known where you were. You kept it from me for so long," Ye Liuyun said with some resentment.

Hearing this, Bei Ming Piaoxu was both happy and somewhat embarrassed, but she didn't try to explain herself.

There aren't many complicated words exchanged between mothers and sons, or fathers and sons, unlike between husbands and wives.

"I'm sorry, we were wrong about this. We should have told you before we left. It was mainly your grandfather's idea. Of course, your father and I also bear responsibility. Let's go see your father and uncle. Tonight, you should tell your mother how you've been all these years." Bei Ming Piaoxu hugged Ye Liuyun for a few minutes before letting go.

However, just as she was about to take Ye Liuyun to Ye Kai and Bei Ming Chengfeng, her gaze suddenly fell on Ye Fei.

Ye Fei was staring wide-eyed at Bei Ming Piaoxu.

"Huh? Who is this little girl?" Bei Ming Piaoxu wondered. The little girl being held by Ye Liuyun's hand made her have an unrealistic guess.

Seeing that Bei Ming Piaoxu was looking at Ye Fei with a scrutinizing gaze, Ye Liuyun didn't hide anything from her.

“Mother, this is my adopted daughter, named Ye Fei,” Ye Liuyun explained.

Upon hearing this, Bei Ming Piaoxu's eyes showed obvious disappointment. She had thought this little girl was Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue's daughter, but she hadn't expected her to be just an adopted daughter. But even if she was an adopted daughter, she was still her granddaughter.

"Is that my granddaughter?" Bei Ming Piaoxu asked in surprise.

“Of course, Xiao Fei. This is my mother, your grandmother. Call her Grandma,” Ye Liuyun said.

Ye Fei nodded blankly.

"Grandma, nice to meet you, I'm Ye Fei," Ye Fei introduced herself.

The moment Bei Ming Piaoxu called out "Grandma," she was completely charmed, and she knelt down and picked Ye Fei up in her arms.

Although she wasn't his biological daughter, Ye Fei was very pleasing to the eye, and Bei Ming Piaoxu knew that she probably wouldn't have any grandchildren, so Ye Liuyun's adoption of one was a consolation.

"Yes, so cute. Don't worry, from now on, you're my granddaughter." Bei Ming Piaoxu said with a smile.

After saying that, Ye Liuyun smiled and led Jiang Wanling to the main gate of the direct line with Bei Ming Piaoxu.

Upon arriving at the main gate, Ye Liuyun immediately waved to Ye Kai with a grin.

"Hey! Old man, are you surprised or not? Your son has come to see you in person." Ye Liuyun said to Ye Kai with a smile.

Ye Kai was initially happy to see Ye Liuyun, but his expression immediately fell when he saw that Ye Liuyun was still acting so disrespectfully.

He felt a sudden urge to hit her, but ultimately restrained himself. If this were at home, Ye Liuyun would definitely get a beating.

"Kid, it's been decades, and you're still as disrespectful as ever. But since your old man is in a good mood today, I won't punish you." Ye Kai replied with a wry smile, then stepped forward and patted Ye Liuyun on the shoulder. The father and son exchanged a casual greeting like that.

Ye Liuyun looked Ye Kai up and down with great interest.

"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Look how much younger you've become. How about I change how I address you? I won't call you 'old man' anymore, I'll call you 'brother' instead," Ye Liuyun continued to tease.

This time, Ye Kai couldn't hold back any longer. He raised his hand and slapped Ye Liuyun on the back of the head.

"Ugh! How could you just hit me like that? You were just saying you wouldn't punish me." Ye Liuyun complained.

"Sorry, my hands just wouldn't cooperate. The moment I saw you, I wanted to hit you," Ye Kai explained kindly.

Seeing his father rubbing his fists together, ready to beat him up, Ye Liuyun quickly gave an embarrassed smile and stopped teasing Ye Kai.

Ye Kai then turned his gaze to the little girl in his wife's arms.

"Eh? Who is this little girl?" Ye Kai asked.

“Your granddaughter, although she’s not my biological daughter, is my adopted daughter, so she’s definitely your biological granddaughter,” Ye Liuyun replied.

Ye Kai nodded; he understood what Ye Liuyun meant.

"Oh? With your character, how dare you be someone's father? Don't you dare corrupt this little girl," Ye Kai said, rolling his eyes.

"Tch! That's going too far. Xiao Fei, this is Grandpa, my father. Call him Grandpa." Ye Liuyun didn't bother arguing with Ye Kai and instead introduced him to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei obediently called out to Ye Kai again.

"grandfather."

"Alright, alright, Madam, let me hold our granddaughter." Ye Kai's face lit up with a smile, and he reached out to take Ye Fei from Bei Ming Piaoxu's arms.

"Go away, I haven't hugged him enough yet. Oh, right, Liuyun, this is your maternal uncle, Beiming Chengfeng, my elder brother from the same mother." Beiming Piaoxu then remembered that there were other people here, so she quickly introduced the young man standing at the door to Ye Liuyun.

After greeting her parents, Ye Liuyun took a closer look at Bei Ming Chengfeng. The moment she saw him, two words immediately flashed through her mind: "It's over."

Because this Bei Ming Chengfeng looks very similar to someone she beat up today, they look like father and son or brothers. If you say they are not related, she will never accept it.

However, Ye Liuyun certainly couldn't bring himself to discuss these matters here. So, he straightened his posture, walked up to Bei Ming Chengfeng, and bowed respectfully to him.

"Nephew Ye Liuyun greets his uncle."

Bei Ming Chengfeng revealed a gentle smile, because Ye Liyun was his only nephew, and his other sister was not married.

"Well, welcome back to the Beiming family. By the way, who is this senior Liuyun?" Beiming Chengfeng smiled and nodded at Ye Liuyun, but immediately turned his gaze to Jiang Wanling beside him.

Because Jiang Wanling exuded a powerful aura, far stronger than his, and this woman in the blue dress, with such high cultivation, was dressed as a maid following behind Ye Liuyun, Bei Mingchengfeng was somewhat confused.

Just as Ye Liuyun was about to say something, Jiang Wanling spoke first.

“Young Master Chengfeng, I am Jiang Wanling, and I am Young Master Ye’s maid.”

Now that Jiang Wanling has spoken, Ye Liuyun certainly doesn't need to explain anymore. In fact, Jiang Wanling taking the initiative to speak is beneficial to Ye Liuyun.

After all, Ye Liuyun's cultivation level seemed too low, making him easy to be underestimated. Jiang Wanling, on the other hand, was at the third level of the Nascent Soul realm. With her words, Ye Liuyun's importance in Bei Ming Chengfeng's eyes would definitely rise sharply.

"Oh, it's Liuyun's maid. I see. It seems that you haven't just joined a small sect all these years, as your father and mother said. Let's test your skills." As Beiming Chengfeng spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and struck Ye Liuyun with a palm.

Ye Liuyun seemed to know what Bei Ming Chengfeng meant, so he didn't hesitate to exchange a palm strike with Bei Ming Chengfeng.

The two palms collided, but there was no significant energy fluctuation; it seemed to be just a pure physical collision.

Ye Liuyun was definitely no match for Bei Mingchengfeng, but Bei Mingchengfeng didn't use much power either; he was just testing Ye Liuyun.

What appears to be an ordinary palm strike between the two is actually quite profound.

Bei Ming Piaoxu and Ye Kai were somewhat worried upon seeing this scene, but they did not stop it. In cultivation families, only the strong have dignity.

They had just discovered that their son, despite cultivating for so long, was still only at the Spirit Stream Realm, which they found somewhat incomprehensible.

Bei Ming Chengfeng and Ye Liuyun exchanged a palm strike, then Bei Ming Chengfeng paused for a moment before withdrawing his hand in surprise.

"Not bad, not bad, very powerful physical strength. This physical strength is comparable to that of a half-step Four Extremes cultivator. Liu Yun, you are following the path of body refinement, right?" Bei Ming Chengfeng asked with a questioning look.

"Well, Uncle, you should have noticed that I'm not good at this. I have a Five Elements Spiritual Root, so there's no future in the Qi Refining path. In addition, I unexpectedly obtained an ancient body refining method, which is why I embarked on the path of body refining," Ye Liuyun replied.

Bei Ming Chengfeng nodded in surprise.

“Is that so? Well, that’s your good fortune. Alright, stop talking at the door. Your Ye family of Nanling is basically gone now. From now on, the Beiming family will be your home. You’ve come at the right time. The family is actually discussing whether to let you and your three older sisters return to the Beiming family and change your surname to Beiming.” Beiming Chengfeng said.

These words startled Ye Liuyun, who instinctively glanced at her parents.

Ye Liuyun wasn't particularly concerned about surnames. After all, Beiming was his mother's surname, so taking his mother's surname wasn't out of the question.

As for Ye Kai, he clearly showed displeasure when he heard this. Bei Ming Piaoxu also smiled awkwardly after seeing her son's expression.

As the daughter of the Beiming family, she now lives with her husband in the Beiming family. Their current cultivation level is entirely thanks to the Beiming family. As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to do his bidding."

Although Ye Kai wasn't particularly happy with this approach, he couldn't refuse.

"This? Isn't this a bit too sudden, Uncle? Didn't you discuss it with my grandfather?" Ye Liuyun asked doubtfully.

Upon hearing this, Bei Ming Chengfeng immediately realized that he had been too hasty. Even if he had this idea, he shouldn't have said it here.
