Hu Liena recalled, a helpless look on her face:
"He said his previous dream was to break through to Grand Soul Master, find a small mountain village, marry five wives, and live out the rest of his life in peace.
Qian Renxue nodded. This dream wasn't excessive; it was quite normal.
A Grand Soul Master, finding a village, marrying a few ordinary beautiful women, and living out the rest of his life in peace was very reasonable!
"Then he must not be content with being ordinary now, right?" Qian Renxue asked.
Hu Liena laughed out loud: "Heh! Of course, he's not content with being ordinary now. He's become stronger, and his dreams are also becoming stronger."
"His current dream is to marry ten wives, and they must be the most beautiful women on the Continent. He said... he wants them all!"
Hu Liena stretched out her hand and clenched her fist, imitating Liam's mannerisms about seventy to eighty percent accurately.
Qian Renxue was momentarily speechless. How could I call someone who hasn't forgotten his original aspirations a womanizer?
He's just alone and helpless in this world. He just wants to marry a few more wives, have a few more children, and he just wants a big home!
What could he have done wrong?
Qian Renxue thought of the diary entries she had read before and didn't even know how to complain in her heart.
It makes sense!
As a strong person who wants to marry a few more wives and live life, I truly can't find a reason to complain about you, Liam!
If everyone in this world were like you, how much less slaughter and conflict would there be? It would be a beautiful tomorrow!
Hu Liena, however, sighed again:
"It's just a pity! He said Teacher isn't normal. If Teacher were normal, he would send a generous betrothal gift."
"He said he was afraid that if he sent the betrothal gift, Teacher would use it to blow up Spirit Hall, and he even told the two of us to work hard and usurp the throne as soon as possible!"
"Xiao Xue, what should we do?"
Qian Renxue's face immediately fell: "How should I know? That woman wasn't normal to begin with!"
Hu Liena sighed. Now that they knew all of Bibi Dong's secrets, they actually hoped in their hearts that she could get better.
Face life properly!
Don't live a lifetime in hatred and pain.
Hu Liena yawned: "Forget it, I'll sleep here at your place first. Send someone to wait at Spirit Hall. When Liam and Ye Lingling return, tell them to come directly here!"
Let's talk about another matter.
Ye Family Residence.
Ye Lingling's home could hardly be called a family.
Because there weren't many people in Ye Lingling's family. Her only relatives were her Grandma and mother. Besides a few Enshrinements and Elders, there was no one else.
Ye Lingling's Grandma, Ye Yongjun, was another Martial Soul user of Nine-Heart Begonia, a Level 76 Soul Sage. A white-haired old lady.
Ye Lingling's mother was Yu Jing, a young beautiful woman, a Level 67 Soul Emperor. Her appearance was seventy to eighty percent similar to Ye Lingling's. It seemed Ye Lingling was born well, inheriting her father's Nine-Heart Begonia and her mother's appearance.
When these two women heard that Ye Lingling had brought a boy home, they both rushed over in a hurry.
"Ye Lingling."
"Good child."
When Ye Lingling saw her Grandma and mother come in from outside, she immediately rushed forward and threw herself into her Grandma's arms, crying excitedly.
Liam stood to the side, not yet speaking, just waiting for Ye Lingling to finish venting her emotions.
Ye Yongjun looked at her crying granddaughter in her arms and said heartbrokenly: "Good child, let's not cry for now. Tell Grandma what happened?"
Ye Mother was also full of worry on the side.
Ye Lingling choked out, saying:
"Grandma, Mother, my Martial Soul has evolved. From now on, our family's Nine-Heart Begonia will no longer have limitations. Every generation can have a Nine-Heart Begonia."
Saying that, Ye Lingling released her Martial Soul. Ye Yongjun could clearly feel a pressure; it was the king within the Martial Soul bloodline!
For a moment.
Tears couldn't help but fall from Ye Yongjun's aged face.
Logically speaking.
For a new generation to awaken the Nine-Heart Begonia, the one who passes away early must be the older generation. However, Ye Lingling's father's Soul Power wasn't high, so for the continuation of the family's Martial Soul in the future, he made his own choice.
The sacrificial inheritance of the Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul, Ye Lingling's father was not the first, but now... he was the last.
From now on, the Nine-Heart Begonia will no longer need to face such difficult choices and can finally break free from this ridiculous fate.
How is it not ridiculous?
The Continent's number one healing Martial Soul, yet it had to be built upon the wounds of one's own family. The Nine-Heart Begonia could save tens of thousands, but it alone could not save three generations of its own family living together.
"Good! Good child! Good child!"
Ye Yongjun comforted her granddaughter, tears also continuously falling from her eyes.
Ye Mother also wiped away tears on the side. Only their own family knew how bitter the Nine-Heart Begonia was.
Ye Lingling finally reacted, wiped away her tears, and pulled her Grandma to introduce:
"Grandma, Mother, this is my boyfriend. His name is Liam. He gave me the Immortal Herb, which helped my Martial Soul evolve."
"Liam, this is my Grandma, and this is my mother. I'm sorry just now; I couldn't control my emotions when I saw Grandma."
Liam didn't mind and politely called out:
"Grandma Ye, Auntie."
"My name is Liam."
These two were initially complex in their feelings when they heard Ye Lingling's first sentence, "boyfriend," but when they heard the latter half, they immediately became excited on the spot.
"Savior."
The two immediately wanted to kneel to Liam, but Liam quickly stepped forward to stop them:
"Grandma Ye, Auntie, Ye Lingling is my girlfriend. You are both my Elders, so I cannot accept this."
Ye Lingling also understood Liam through their interactions. Supporting her Grandma, she said: "Grandma, Mother, Liam is quite easygoing. He doesn't like it when people are too polite."
"Alright."
Ye Yongjun nodded and said to Liam: "Your great kindness, our family has no way to repay. It is also this girl Ye Lingling's fortune to be with you."
"We still need to repay this kindness. If you ever need this old woman in the future, please speak up as soon as possible. Please, have a seat!"
"Okay!"
Liam nodded and said:
"Grandma Ye and Auntie, please don't be so polite. Just treat me as a normal junior and call me Liam."
Within a day.
Liam stayed with Ye Lingling at the Ye Family Residence and also met with a few Elders in their family. Their strength was around Level 60 to 70, and almost all of them had received favor from the Ye Family and voluntarily agreed to stay and guard the Ye Family.
During this time, Liam also talked about their move to Spirit City. They didn't resist either; it was just moving to a different place to live.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The Shrek Seven Devils finally met today.
Early in the morning.
Ning Rongrong pulled Xiao Wu to register at Shrek, with Tang San following behind like a shadow.
During the registration test at the entrance.
The three of them met Dai Mubai. Both sides felt a bit of itching hatred in their hearts, but neither said anything to the other.
"Hmph!"
Xiao Wu coldly snorted. In her heart, she became increasingly dissatisfied with this broken school, Shrek.
Ning Rongrong was also dissatisfied in her heart.
However.
Their biggest goal now was to wait for Liam's arrival at Shrek. They didn't do anything about it, and like the normal plot, they passed the assessment and entered Shrek Academy.
Zhu Zhuqing also joined Shrek Academy with them on this day.
