Chapter 1129: Banquet
Chapter 1129: Banquet
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Ye Clan once fell because of Ye Nantian and had been suppressed for seventeen years. Now, also because of Ye Nantian, it rose again! As it rose up, it was a strong eternal foundation that was built under it!
As a clan, it was allied to Qiong-Hua Palace, Misty Cloud Palace, and Cold Moon Palace at the same time. It was definitely unique in the history of Qing-Yun Realm!
At the same time, Ye Nantian's shout had sounded in the other clans' places.
The people of the other clans all trembled when they heard the shout! They were terrified!
That shout was the roar of a great lion who had been sleeping for many years and suddenly woke up!
An awakened lion descended to the world like a king.
In the roar, it indicated the domineering attitude and the splendidness of a king!
…
Ye Nantian strode forward. He directly went to his study room!
After that, he sat in front of his desk.
After a while, he quietly lowered his head to touch the desk. He just stayed low on the desk.
After a long while, he raised his head with tears in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, stared at the void, and murmured, "Xue'er, our misfortune is going to end!"
"We created the disaster because of our impulsive love! Because of the disaster, we have our son!"
"Now that all is ended, our suffering is going to end because of what our son has done!"
"Our son ended the suffering of us!"
"We are going to take you home!"
"We will be reunited. You and me, we will never be apart again!"
"Xue'er, wait for me!"
…
Everybody was guessing what the reason was for all that had happened, except Ye Nantian. He knew his son had done everything.
He didn't know what Ye Xiao had exactly done and how he managed to do it!
However, he knew that there would be no other people who could lead things to such a result.
Those dan beads were brought to him by his son!
His son fought and killed to create Ye Clan's solidarity!
Misty Cloud Palace became an ally of Ye Clan not only because of Xuan Bing's strange favor, but also because of his son's lotuses. A firm relationship was built beyond a stable exchange of interests. Misty Cloud Palace suddenly announced the alliance with Ye Clan because they wanted the lotuses from his son. Nobody else in Ye Clan had done anything to contributive to the alliance.
Cold Moon Palace supported Ye Clan because of his son. Ye Xiao was Cold Moon Palace's most important disciple. That was why they would fully support Ye Clan.
Qiong-Hua Palace supporting Ye Clan was an abrupt change. Ye Nantian didn't understand it, but he was sure Ye Xiao had played an essential role in the change.
Ye Nantian had spoken to the two ladies before they had the conversation with Ye Xiao. Ye Nantian also had told them everything he could, but the two ladies wouldn't care about justice or righteousness at all… However, before the two ladies changed their minds, Ye Xiao was the only person who had talked to them, nobody else did!
So…
Ye Nantian took a deep breath.
He felt that he didn't know his son well enough anymore.
Although he had felt Ye Xiao's strangeness before when they were in the Land of Han-Yang, however, that feeling had risen to the strongest point at the moment.
He felt a ring of mystery on his son!
No matter how he tried, he couldn't see the truth behind it!
[No matter how mysterious he is, he is still my son!]
[The more mysterious my son is, the better!]
[Let the ring cover him from the eyes of all the people in the world, and that will keep him absolutely safe!]
[The secrets of him…]
[Humph!] Ye Nantian suddenly laughed. [No matter how arrogant he is, no matter how mysterious he is, he is still my son!]
[I shout at him when I want to shout at him; I hit him when I want to hit… Wait… He hasn't done anything wrong. I shouldn't beat him. Right. Just shout at him!]
[That means all to me. Nothing else matters!]
[To dig the secrets behind him…]
[I am better than that!]
[A secret means a secret!]
[I raised him up by myself. I changed his pants, and I fed him what he needed. I am literally like both a mother and a father to him…]
[What else should I care? Why would I be worried?]
…
That night, Ye Clan held a big banquet to entertain the guests!
Some of the other clans that hadn't left Town of Ye all received the invitation!
They would probably disdainfully throw the invitation letters away like trash if they received it a few months earlier. Few of them would attend the banquet in the old days.
However, now they felt flattered.
[Oh god! Ye Clan actually invites us to the banquet!]
[What an honor!]
[What a compliment!]
[How surprising!]
Everybody started to dress up formally like an important figure. Every clan had prepared a priceless gift that literally had cost so much that it made them feel hurt. Everyone went to Ye Clan beaming cheerfully.
It was a big banquet, but in fact, there were only eight tables.
In the outer hall, those who represented the other clans were eating quietly in the company of the elders of Ye Clan. It wasn't as bustling as the typical banquets, but both the guests and the host were having a wonderful time.
There was a table that was specially arranged in the side room of the inner hall. It was for the ladies from Misty Cloud Palace, accompanied by the ladies of Ye Clan.
In the inner hall, there was a big table.
Whoever sat around this table were the main figures of this banquet.
Whoever was invited to sit at this table should be powerful enough to earn respect from the most powerful sects in Qing-Yun Realm!
Ye Shuqing didn't sit here; instead, he was sitting at a table in the outer hall. He should be qualified enough to sit here, but he didn't like to relax in a depressing atmosphere. He shouldn't be forced to sit down after all…
Around this table, there were Zhan Yunfei, Zhu Jiutian, Li Yunxuan, Yue Shuang, Yue Han, Ye Nantian, and Ye Xiao.
Such a big table was shared by only seven people!
Han Bingxue didn't show up.
Ye Nantian wanted this mysterious figure, who had been supporting his son all along, to join the banquet!
Could Han Bingxue join them?
No!
So he pretended to be fussy. He said, "I don't like a noisy situation!"
As he said so, Ye Nantian felt more admiring of him. [That is such a superior cultivator's behavior! I honestly am much worse!]
In such an enjoyable day, Han Bingxue was sitting at a small table on his own in a secret room. It was sad. He drank to himself and refilled his own bowl. The poor Frost Sword was still in confusion.
He took a sip of the fine liquor and made a sigh.
