Chapter 30: Chapter 30: First Heard of Immortal Sects, Su Yan ‘s Family_l
Through Ye Fan’s tireless efforts, Su Yan was finally pregnant again.
“My lord, I think you should take a concubine.” Su Yan looked at Ye Fan and said this seriously.
Take a concubine?
As a modern man, Ye Fan’s thoughts were still somewhat influenced by another memory.
He hadn’t contemplated the idea of having a concubine.
Ye Fan might dismiss the idea, but it was a decision Su Yan had to make on his behalf.
In this era, it was normal for a capable man to have multiple wives and concubines.
If Ye Fan did not take a concubine for an extended period, he could later be criticized as a jealous husband.
“My lord, you don’t need to worry about this. I’ll handle it for you,” she assured him.
Soon enough, Su Yan brought two women forward.
These two women were daughters of two prominent families in Wanlu County.
With Ye Fan’s current status, he couldn’t just choose anyone to be his concumne.
He needed women of status; he needed women with a significant background.
In other words, it needed to be a unification of powerful parties, a perfect match of social status.
As such, the Ye Family grew by two members in no time.
For Ye Fan’s grand marriage, many of the county’s families came to congratulate him.
“My lord, it’s time to rest.”
Ye Fan had begun efforts to increase his family’s population yet again.
In a blink of an eye, half a year had passed since Ye Fan got married.
As Su Yan’s belly grew bigger, Ye Fan spent his time with her, offering his companionship every day after work.
“Yan, we should name our child.’
“Let’s use the names we came up with before, Ye Jinxia for a girl and Ye Jindong for a boy.”
Ye Fan nodded in agreement, offering no objection.
In two months, Su Yan was due to give birth.
Just then, Ye Fan suddenly felt an enormous downward pressure from the sky.
It was as if his body was weighed down by a giant burden. He almost collapsed.
Struggling, he lifted his head and saw a person standing on a flying sword in the sky above the Ye family house.
A flying sword, an Immortal?
Ye Fan was stunned. Even a martial artist at the Innate Realm level could only glide in the sky. They couldn’t possibly float like this person.
Struggling to stand straight, Ye Fan respectfully but confidently asked, ‘May I inquire about the purpose of your visit to the Ye Family, immortal?” This Immortal did not seem to harbor good intentions.
“You are Ye Fan?” The Immortal slowly uttered, his gaze fixated on Ye Fan.
He’s really here for me!
Ye Fan’s heart pounded in unease, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t figure out when he had offended such a powerful entity.
The Black Mountain Thieves? Or the obliterated major families?
But it didn’t make sense. If there were Immortals behind these forces, they wouldn’t be in such a pitiful state.
At this moment, Su Yan, who was standing next to Ye Fan, regained alertness. “Could it be one of my elder family members from the Su Family?” she asked in an uncertain voice.
Hearing Su Yan, Ye Fan finally made the connection.
This Immortal had a slight resemblance to Su Yan, especially around his brows.
“You must be little Yan, ” the Immortal withdrew his imposing aura, landing in front of Su Yan.
Ye Fan’s body was drenched in sweat. In the presence of this Immortal, he felt as insignificant as an ant.
“It seems, young man, that you are her husband in the secular world.” The Immortal dismissed Ye Fan after one glance, and shifted his attention away.
“Little Yan, I’m your father’s elder brother. Your father had me look for you.
After all these year, I’ve finally found you.”
“Luckily you pawned that jade pendant, which eventually ended up in the city.
Otherwise, it would have been really hard for me to find you.”
With just a jade pendant leading the way to Wanlu County, Ye Fan couldn’t help but admire the Immortal’s capabilities.
“Su Yan, now that I found you, come back with me to the Su Family.”
The Immortal didn’t plan to stay long and intended to take Su Yan away immediately.
Hearing this, Ye Fan felt a chill in his heart.
This so-called Immortal had never cast a proper glance at him, nor cared about his opinion, even though he was Su Yan’s husband in name.
“Uncle, I can’t leave with you.”
Clearly agitated, Su Yan had already acknowledged her identity as Ye Fan’s wife, the mother of Ye Fan’s child. How could she just simply leave them now!
If she left, what would happen to their child, what would happen to Ye Fan!
“Su Yan, a descendant of the Su Family, can’t possibly stay in the secular world. Once you reach our blessed land, you’ll understand that the so-called secular life is nothing but fleeting. ”
The Immortal glanced at Ye Fan, “And they, will eventually return to dust.” The disregard for life implied in his words sent a chill down their spines.
Su Yan wanted to speak but Ye Fan cut her off, “Su Yan, I have something to tell you.”
“Senior, could you allow me to persuade Su Yan?”
Ye Fan bowed towards the Immortal in a respectful gesture.
A hint of impatience flashed in the Immortal’s eyes but faded quickly, “All right, I hope you can convince Su Yan. You as a secular martial artist, you are not worthy of my Su Family’s daughter.”
As expected, the drama was about to unfold.
Ye Fan’s life of late had been too tranquil, almost making him forget he was a transmigrator.
A transmigrator’s journey is never smooth-sailing.
Ye Fan guessed that even if he and Su Yan were unwilling to separate, this immortal would undoubtedly force Su Yan to leave with him.
Should he now shout out, ‘Every thirty years the river’s course shifts, do not bully a middle-aged man in poverty?’
No way, if Ye Fan dared to shout out like that, he might get killed with one slap.
Ye Fan took Su Yan into their room, “Su Yan, you go back to the Su Family with your uncle. I know what you want to say, don’t worry, I will come to find you.” As for cultivation, Ye Fan was merely troubled with finding a path.
Now that an opportunity was given and the System was with him, this so-called cultivation family didn’t seem out of reach anymore.
Outside the room, Su Yan’s uncle heard Ye Fan’s words and a hint of disdain flickered across his face.
It wasn’t easy for a mortal to transcend and become a cultivator.
In the end, Su Yan was persuaded by Ye Fan.
“Hubby, you must come, the baby and I will be waiting for you!” Touching her stomach, Su Yan looked resolute.
Ye Fan nodded in agreement. He was determined to visit Su Family.
Watching Su Yan board the Immortal’s flying sword, Ye Fan asked, “Senior, could you give me an address as a token of remembrance?”
“You still want to see Su Yan again? Ha ha ha, since you’re so infatuated, I’ll give you a chance.”
Su Yan’s uncle flipped his hand and two items appeared in the air.
The method of producing objects from — what seemed like — nothing was probably due to a storage pouch.
Having read many novels, Ye Fan wasn’t surprised by this method.
This caught Su Yan’s uncle’s attention and it changed his impression of Ye Fan somewhat. He had intended to intimidate Ye Fan with his show of prowess, letting him witness the Immortal’s methods.
But it seemed like it had absolutely no effect.
With a wave of his hand, two items floated to Ye Fan.
“This stone is a Spirit Stone, it can detect spiritual roots. The other is a token of the Su Family. If the child you and Su Yan have has Spiritual Root, bring the Token to Guanghe Prefecture and someone will get in touch with you.”
The Spirit Stone and the Token, does anyone in the Ye Family has a spiritual root?
Looking at the figure disappearing into the sky, Ye Fan clenched his fists.
The plot was indeed melodramatic, seems like over these years, he had been living too comfortably.
