Perhaps sensing something amiss, Ye Ling’er, fearful that she might have annoyed Ye Xuan by some shortcoming, hastily voiced her query.

“Heh heh!”

Ye Xuan responded with a laugh and said, “Nothing’s the matter, I’m simply happy for you, that you’ve married such an excellent husband and have such a blissful family.”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Ye Ling’er breathed a sigh of relief, then, leaning on Tuoba Yuntian’s arm, she smiled happily at Ye Xuan, “Brother, Yuntian has been very good to me all these years.

Now that you’ve returned, you must stay at home.

After some time, we’ll confront the Cultivation Alliance ourselves.”

As Ye Ling’er spoke, Tuoba Yuntian also nodded with a smile, “Big brother, all these years Ling’er has been missing you, and you have always been the object of my admiration.

I have many questions about cultivation that I wish to ask for your guidance.”

Watching the happiness on Ye Ling’er’s face, Ye Xuan slowly nodded and smiled, “In that case, I will stay for a few days.”

…

A waning moon hung in the Heavenly Vault, with stars twinkling across the heavens, their pale light casting a pristine glow over the courtyard.

Pavilions, high-rise buildings, and small structures by flowing water—a gentle breeze made Ye Xuan’s hair flutter in the wind, his aura fluctuating slightly, a clear sign his mind was far from calm.

“Little sister, what should I do?”

Ye Xuan sighed deeply, a hint of killing intent crossing his eyes before vanishing without a trace.

His visit to the Tuoba Family today was meant only to see the only relative he had in the Mortal World and then to drift away.

But, upon seeing Tuoba Yuntian, he changed his mind and took up residence.

Because Ye Xuan saw through Tuoba Yuntian’s cultivation with just one glance.

Even though the other tried hard to conceal it, how could he fool the eyes of a Luotian Mystic Immortal like him?

Tuoba Yuntian was not simply a Body Integration Realm cultivator; he was a true immortal, his cultivation at the level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and the second person to become an immortal in the Human World.

Ye Xuan was absolutely certain that he had not misjudged, nor could he be mistaken.

However, Ye Xuan did not confront the matter directly since after all, this man was his sister’s husband.

A person who became an immortal, lingering in the Human World and hiding his cultivation, was already a very strange matter.

This made Ye Xuan think of all the events that had occurred over the past five hundred years.

Ye Xuan already had a dreadful suspicion.

If this suspicion turned out to be true, once his little sister learned of the reality, it might ruin her lifelong happiness!

Ye Xuan’s expression remained serene as Immortal Light swirled around him.

He looked up at the remnants of the Heavenly Vault’s moon, letting out a deep sigh, standing silently in the courtyard, his thoughts unknown.

…

Restless under the moon, weighed down with heavy thoughts.

Ye Ling’er was lost in sweet slumbers, completely unaware that her husband was no longer beside her but instead stood alone in the courtyard.

“He had gone to the Earth Immortal Realm, why would he come back?

Why would this be?”

Tuoba Yuntian’s expression was dark and brooding as he muttered to himself in the courtyard, fear flashing through his eyes at each opening and closing, clearly his mind was not at peace.

“Has he…

discovered me?”

Tuoba Yuntian paced back and forth in the courtyard, Ye Xuan’s face surfacing in his mind from time to time.

Today, Ye Xuan’s arrival was known to him at the first moment.

When he saw Ye Xuan’s true form, his heart had already been stirred by a tremendous shock, but fortunately, he had deep composure and did not show any unusual emotion.

“Although I have already become an Immortal after successfully Crossing Tribulation, I cannot see through his cultivation at all.

I fear that Ye Xuan has already stepped into the Mystic Immortal Realm, a whole great realm higher than mine.” Tuoba Yuntian said in a somber tone, his expression changing unpredictably.

However, he did not know that his every move at this moment was being watched by Ye Xuan, which caused Ye Xuan to heave a sigh, knowing that his conjecture had indeed come true.

…

The next day, at the break of dawn, the early sun rose.

Ye Ling’er’s family of three came to pay respects to Ye Xuan.

Amidst Ye Ling’er’s cheerful laughter, the family enjoyed a pleasant breakfast.

However, Ye Xuan, having fasted for many years, merely tasted a few bites of the food Ye Ling’er had cooked before abstaining from eating more.

“Big brother, my family affairs are busy, I will go to take care of them first and then come back to welcome you properly,” Tuoba Yuntian said apologetically.

“Never mind, my good brother, just go about your business,” Ye Xuan calmly replied.

“Ling’er, you have not been with big brother for many years.

Do not neglect him,” Tuoba Yuntian earnestly advised Ye Ling’er before he left the dining table.

“Uncle, mother has always mentioned you over the years, saying that your cultivation is invincible in the world.

Is that true?” Tuoba Nianxuan asked curiously, as he had always heard from his mother about Ye Xuan’s strength and was very curious about the cultivation level of his mysterious uncle.

“Look at that sky!”

With a gentle smile, Ye Xuan swept his hand through the air, and the boundless heaven was transformed, as thunder crossed and lightning intertwined, with countless glows erupting across the sky, creating a miraculous scene that left Tuoba Nianxuan speechless.

When this spectacle unfolded, not to mention Tuoba Nianxuan’s amazement, even Tuoba Yuntian, who had just stepped outside, turned pale, his fists clenched slightly before he mounted his Escape Light and sped away.

Ye Xuan’s Dharma Eyes saw through the void, and every action of Tuoba Yuntian was under his surveillance.

He revealed this Immortal Technique, hoping that Tuoba Yuntian would find his way back to the righteous path.

“Brother, are you…

are you now an Immortal?” In front of Ye Xuan, Ye Ling’er seemed to revert to the girl she once was, looking up at Ye Xuan with admiration in her eyes.

Regrettably, Ye Xuan did not answer his sister’s question, but looked deeply into her eyes and said in a low voice, “Little sister, go get the puppet I gave you when you got married.”

“Ah?”

“Okay, okay.”

Ye Ling’er hurried into the house, and when she returned, she held a wooden box in her hands, which was the wedding gift Ye Xuan had given her on her marriage.

Upon opening the wooden box, two puppets were revealed.

When Ye Xuan held the puppets in his hands, a light of understanding flashed across his eyes.

Back then, before he left the Human World, he had imbued the two puppets with the Strongest Powers to protect Ye Ling’er and their mother for a lifetime.

But now, the puppets in his hands were merely two pieces of decayed wood, the Strongest Powers that were once contained within were no longer there.

“Brother, these puppets are the gifts you gave me, and besides my husband and I, no third person has ever seen them,” Ye Ling’er softly said.

“Mhm, put them away.”

Ye Xuan put the puppets back into the box, a flash of cold light barely noticeable in his eyes.

He had finally confirmed one last thing: Tuoba Yuntian had become an Immortal in the Mortal World within merely five hundred years because he had absorbed and refined the two Strongest Powers within the puppets.

To think, when he made these two puppets, he was at the Mahayana Realm, and the two Strongest Powers he imbued within them contained unimaginable force.

Tuoba Yuntian had secretly refined these two Strongest Powers without Ye Ling’er’s knowledge, and with the resurgence of nature’s spiritual energy, it was not so surprising that he could become an Immortal within five hundred years.
