The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 554 - 553: Willow Branches

Chapter 554: Chapter 553: Willow Branches

The matter at Chunxiao Building was soon taken care of by people sent by Yun Chui.

"Mr. Ye, the Family Head’s matters have been almost dealt with. I have been dispatched to invite Mr. Ye to the grand hall for a discussion."

The person who came was Yun Chui’s trusted aide, Mo Long. Mo Long spoke to Ye Xuan with great respect, his eyes filled with excitement.

Seeing Ye Xuan again, Mo Long could only feel profound reverence.

It could be said that he revered him as if he were a deity.

In Mo Long’s eyes, Ye Xuan was no longer just a man, but a god!

Only such a god could reverse the overall situation and turn the universe upside down!

"Hmm." Ye Xuan nodded slightly, then turned to look at Mo Qinglian in the corner, who was continuously retching and crying, and said with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Girl, can’t you hold up anymore?"

Mo Qinglian’s face was pale. Thinking of the cruel scene just before, she shivered, but hearing Ye Xuan’s tease, she stubbornly replied, "I’m fine."

Ye Xuan grinned, "Step it up. Becoming my maid is not that simple."

Having said that, Ye Xuan then strode away.

Mo Qinglian watched Ye Xuan’s back. She wanted to follow him immediately, but just as she moved, she felt her stomach churn again, and she had to turn back and continue retching.

For Mo Qinglian, this was definitely the most unforgettable day of her life.

......

The Mo family grand hall.

Yun Chui was full of vigor, and his originally cloudy eyes intermittently flashed with divine light, looking quite extraordinary.

Yun Chui arrived outside the hall and quietly waited.

Sometime later, footsteps came from the outer hall.

Yun Chui looked up, stepped forward, and bowed deeply, saying, "Mr. Ye."

The person who arrived was Ye Xuan.

"You dealt with it quite quickly," Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.

Yun Chui laughed loudly, "The credits go to Mr. Ye for eliminating Mo Tongfeng and Mo Yunli, otherwise it would have taken a lot more effort."

"Mr. Ye, please come inside."

After straightening up, Yun Chui also took the initiative to invite Ye Xuan into the grand hall.

There was no one else inside the grand hall.

Yun Chui knew that Ye Xuan did not like disturbances, so he did not invite others.

Upon entering the grand hall, Yun Chui intended to offer Ye Xuan the seat of honor, but Ye Xuan simply pulled out a chair and sat down, leaving Yun Chui no choice but to sit next to him.

"Mr. Ye, what is that item you need?" Yun Chui asked aloud.

This had been agreed upon when they were at the Xuan Yao Mountain Range in the Southern Domain.

Ye Xuan had never mentioned exactly what it was, and while Yun Chui had speculated it might be something valuable, he was now unsure.

"It’s nothing impressive, just a willow twig," Ye Xuan said casually.

"A willow twig?" Yun Chui looked puzzled.

There were indeed many willow trees in the Liu Shu of Chunnan Mountain owned by the Mo family, but the willow twig Mr. Ye wanted was clearly not so simple.

Yun Chui humbly asked, "May I know where that willow twig is located?"

Ye Xuan rubbed his thumb over the ink jade ring and thoughtfully said, "If no one has touched it, it should still be in your Mo family’s Holy Treasure."

"The Holy Treasure?" Yun Chui’s expression showed his difficulty, "Mr. Ye, to be honest, there has been a problem with the family Holy Treasure."

Ye Xuan slightly raised his eyebrow, "What problem?"

Yun Chui gave a bitter smile and said, "Actually, since the few generations after the old ancestor of Qian Kun, no one has opened the family Holy Treasure again. Over time, no one even knows how to open the Holy Treasure, not to mention me, even the Mountain Tiger Ancestor and Divine River Ancestor might not know."

Ye Xuan fell silent.

The Mo family couldn’t open their own Holy Treasure?

What kind of situation was this?

It was no wonder the Mo family was no longer as prosperous as before—unable to access their deepest foundation, they couldn’t possibly be considered powerful anymore.

Mo Yunchui felt deeply ashamed and could not face Ye Xuan.

"Alright, I’ll help you open the Holy Treasure for free," Ye Xuan said, somewhat speechless about the Mo family.

"Mr. Ye can open the Holy Treasure?" Mo Yunchui was shocked.

Ye Xuan smiled indifferently and said, "Although I have not seen your family’s Holy Treasure, given your ancestor Mo Tianxing’s character, the method to open it should not be difficult."

Mo Yunchui: "......"

It should not be difficult?

If it really were not difficult, why had no one in the Mo family been able to open the Holy Treasure since several generations after the ancient ancestor Qian Kun?

Over these long years, countless generations in the Mo family had attempted to open the Holy Treasure, but nearly all had ended in failure.

And Mr. Ye was telling him it was not difficult to open the Holy Treasure?

If it were anyone else, Mo Yunchui might have driven them out on the spot.

It was completely nonsensical!

However, the speaker was Mr. Ye. Recalling Mr. Ye’s various methods and that mysterious ink jade ring, perhaps Mr. Ye really could open the Holy Treasure.

With this thought, Mo Yunchui calmed his mind and said, "Mr. Ye, please wait; I will immediately go inform the elders Mountain Tiger and Divine River. The matter of the Holy Treasure must be approved by the elders."

After saying this, Mo Yunchui stood up, preparing to make a report.

"There’s no need," said an old voice just as Mo Yunchui stood up.

Immediately afterwards, two figures appeared out of thin air in the great hall.

It was none other than Mo Shenchuan and Mo Shanhu.

"Divine River elder, Mountain Tiger elder!" Mo Yunchui was slightly startled but promptly greeted them respectfully.

Both elders waved their hands, their gazes falling on Ye Xuan with three parts wariness, six parts excitement, and one part apprehension.

"Mr. Ye, are you truly confident in opening our Mo family’s Holy Treasure?" Mo Shenchuan asked apprehensively.

Ye Xuan stood up from his chair, glanced at the two elders, and said two words: "Lead the way."

He had noticed these two nosy elders listening in a while ago, but there was no need to be secretive about this; it also saved some trouble.

"Yes, Mr. Ye!"

Mo Shenchuan and Mo Shanhu, having regarded Ye Xuan as almost a divine figure, naturally followed his instructions closely.

Led personally by the two elders, Ye Xuan and Mo Yunchui followed behind, flying toward the upper part of the Mo Family Divine City.

As they flew, clouds from the Nine Heavens continuously descended.

Finally, after the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Mo Shenchuan stopped.

The scene before them had undergone a drastic transformation.

Theoretically, as they flew toward the sky, they should have gradually approached the Cosmic Starry Sky. However, they now found themselves amidst a realm of floating white clouds and extending mountains.

In this realm, the nature’s spiritual energy was incredibly dense, accompanied by the essence of the sun and moon.

This was undoubtedly a prime cultivation ground, even a hundred times more formidable than the Mo Family Divine City!

This place was where the Mo family’s Holy Treasure was located.
