Chapter 24: Triple Top-tier Talents, Marriage Partner

Upon hearing that someone had arrived from Cangyuan Ancient City, Ye Wushang was initially quite surprised.

But he quickly realized that the visitor was likely here for Yue Rushuang.

Regardless of the exact reason, he knew he had to be cautious in dealing with this person.

There was no other reason—Cangyuan Ancient City was one of the dominant forces in the Canglan Region, and its reputation was not to be underestimated.

Even a small dynasty like the Great Xia Dynasty did not have the qualifications to be their vassal.

Anyone who casually walked out of Canglan Ancient City could shake the Great Xia Dynasty to its core with just a stomp.

With such a powerful force visiting the Ye family, Ye Wushang had to be extra careful.

Although he was confident that the Ye family would eventually surpass Canglan Ancient City, he was not yet in a position to disregard them.

Cangyuan Ancient City was located to the north of Great Xia, spanning the Tianhen Dynasty and the Black Dragon Empire. Here, a towering, ancient, and majestic city stood—this was Cangyuan Ancient City!

The city appeared small in terms of land area, but in reality, it was a miniature world.

Its vastness rivaled the combined land area of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The geniuses within were terrifyingly powerful, each one an existence of unimaginable strength.

Such a force was not one that any power would dare to underestimate.

As he thought about this, Ye Wushang walked toward the reception hall.

As soon as he entered, he saw many people standing inside.

At the seat on the left side, there was a woman. Her face appeared youthful, not much older than Ye Wushang’s, but her aura was formidable.

Even Ye Wushang could feel immense pressure from her.

Without a doubt, her cultivation was above the Purple Mansion Realm.

Moreover, her mastery in the Purple Mansion Realm was no ordinary feat—not something that a mere third or fourth-layer cultivator could compare to.

Such a young person with such terrifying cultivation demonstrated the frightening power of the force behind her.

Not only that, but she was equally stunning in both looks and aura, rivaling Yue Rushuang herself.

A woman with such perfection was certainly not to be underestimated.

At that moment, she was holding a cup of tea that had been served by the Ye family.

After taking a sip, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, but she quickly regained composure.

She naturally closed the teacup and placed it back on the table.

No one had noticed her actions, which spoke volumes about her cultivation and poise.

Ye Wushang didn’t particularly care.

The status of Cangyuan Ancient City and the Ye family were worlds apart.

The tea she drank was clearly not something the Ye family could match.

Just as he observed her, the familiar voice of the system suddenly rang in his mind.

[Ding! A potential marriage partner detected. Would you like to view?].

Ye Wushang froze for a moment, then quickly reacted.

Without thinking further, he activated his Fate Eye, and a beam of light landed directly on her.

[Mu Xiyao, Luck: Light Gold, Talent: Superior, Peak Purple Mansion Realm, Second-layer Sword Intent Bearer, Talent: Limitless Sword Body, Fearless Sword Bone, Peerless Sword Heart!].

Tsk!

Even Ye Wushang was stunned by her talents.

Limitless Sword Body, Peerless Sword Heart, Fearless Sword Bone—three top-tier talents!

Clearly, she’s a natural sword cultivator!

For a moment, Ye Wushang was shaken by the extraordinary quality of Cangyuan Ancient City’s prodigies.

Was this how terrifying their geniuses were—simply stepping out of the city?

With a calm expression, Ye Wushang withdrew his gaze and scanned the room.

Below Mu Xiyao, there was a middle-aged man in his forties. His eyes were closed, and he seemed indifferent to everything around him.

Ye Wushang couldn’t sense any aura around him, yet he gave off the impression of an ancient, ferocious beast.

It felt as though any slight movement from Ye Wushang would result in a thunderous strike, leading to instant death.

This feeling startled him!

He quickly realized that this man was likely her protector.

Such powers usually send protectors to safeguard their geniuses.

This middle-aged man’s cultivation likely surpassed the Purple Mansion Realm and may have even gone beyond the Dharma Image Realm.

At that moment, Ye Wushang dared not be careless.

Seated to his right was an old acquaintance—Yue Haishi, the head of the Yue family, who was Yue Rushuang’s maternal family.

He had attended Ye Wushang’s wedding with Yue Rushuang but had left shortly afterward.

When Mu Xiyao saw Ye Wushang enter, she turned her head to look.

A man dressed in black walked in, exuding calm confidence. Even in front of them, he showed no signs of fear.

That alone was enough to earn respect.

At this moment, even the middle-aged man opened his eyes and glanced at him.

To Ye Wushang’s surprise, a trace of astonishment appeared in his gaze.

It was clear that he had seen through Ye Wushang’s cultivation and was surprised by it.

“Ah, it turns out that a distinguished guest from Cangyuan Ancient City has arrived. Please forgive our lack of hospitality!”

Ye Wushang first addressed the middle-aged man, then turned his gaze to Mu Xiyao.

Upon hearing this, both of them were visibly startled, clearly not expecting Ye Wushang to have noticed the middle-aged man’s unusual presence.

After all, Yue Haishi, sitting nearby, hadn’t noticed the man’s extraordinariness at all.

He had assumed the middle-aged man was merely a subordinate.

However, the two of them were well-versed in the world and quickly regained their composure.

Mu Xiyao nodded directly: “There is no need for Ye Family Master to be so formal. We are the ones who intruded. To be honest, we are here for Sister Yue Rushuang!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wushang wasn’t surprised at all. He responded calmly, “Rushuang is currently in closed-door cultivation, but I have already informed her. She should be here soon.”

“That’s wonderful!” Mu Xiyao nodded.

For a moment, both sides were unsure of what to say next.

Thankfully, just then, Yue Rushuang arrived, relieving the awkwardness.

“Sister Xiyao, what brings you here?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wushang was also surprised.

Clearly, they knew each other, and judging by Yue Rushuang’s tone, their relationship was quite deep.

Mu Xiyao smiled brightly and looked toward her, but upon seeing Yue Rushuang’s slightly swollen abdomen, she suddenly fell silent.
