"Eh? What's wrong? What are you doing?" The handsome young man in fancy clothes asked.
When Ye Liuyun heard the voice, he turned his head slightly and glanced at the two people coming behind him.
Just with this one look, for some reason, Ye Liuyun felt that there was an inexplicably familiar aura around these two people.
Especially that girl, because this girl looks about 60% similar to Ye Liuyun as a female.
"Master Mu Feng, Miss Mu Yu, you are back. Someone came to our family to cause trouble." The people who had just stopped Ye Liuyun hurriedly explained.
The two heard this, especially the girl.
"Really? Who is so brave? In my entire life, I have never seen anyone who dares to cause trouble in our Nangong family?" After the girl said this, she immediately walked towards Ye Liuyun with the young man.
Ye Liuyun's current appearance has changed based on his appearance when he was a male, and is definitely very different from what he looked like back then.
But if you look closely, you can also find that she has obvious similarities with the boy and girl.
"Strange, Xiaoyu, have you noticed that this person looks familiar?" The boy felt that the person in front of him looked more and more familiar as he approached.
The girl also nodded. After the two of them carefully observed Ye Liuyun, they asked.
"Who are you? Why are you causing trouble here?" the boy asked.
Ye Liuyun quickly guessed who these two people were. The familiar aura definitely could not come out of nowhere.
"Hey? Xiaoyu, Xiaofeng?" Ye Liuyun shouted.
After all, she just heard the guards calling the two people "Master Mu Feng" and "Miss Mu Yu".
Her eldest sister's daughter and son are named Nangong Mufeng and Nangong Muyu.
This is certainly not a coincidence.
When Ye Liuyun called out, the two of them were like their DNA waking up, and they immediately realized who the familiar person in front of them was.
"Uncle?" The two looked at each other and called out at the same time.
Ye Liuyun smiled, and was certain that these two people were his niece and nephew.
Chapter 399: Learning the Truth (6000 words)
The two little guys, Nangong Muyu and Nangong Mufeng, have not seen Ye Liuyun for nearly seventy or eighty years. Under normal circumstances, they should be in their seventies or eighties.
But seeing how young they are at this moment, there is no doubt that they must be cultivators.
Moreover, Lin Qingyou told Ye Liuyun that the two of them had reached the Dao Palace Nascent Soul stage. Although it was still far behind that of the monsters, it was already considered an excellent qualification.
"Oh my God, uncle, I didn't expect you were still alive?" Nangong Muyu was very excited and very surprised at the same time.
She was about to go up and give Ye Liuyun a hug, but was stopped by Nangong Muyu.
"Mu Yu, wait, don't be anxious, first confirm whether he is your uncle..." Nangong Mufeng pulled Nangong Muyu and said a few words in her ear.
At the same time, Nangong Muyu's previous words directly choked Ye Liuyun.
"Eh? Little girl, what you said shows that you are really filial. You asked me as soon as we met why I was still alive. Shouldn't I be alive?" Ye Liuyun said with a twitching mouth.
After Nangong Muyu exchanged a few words with Nangong Mufeng, she first glared at her brother, then said with a smile.
"Cough cough cough, sorry sorry, it was a slip of the tongue. I was too excited. Uncle, please don't mind. I was just slapping myself on the mouth." Nangong Muyu gently slapped himself on the mouth.
When the people from the Nangong family around saw this scene, especially the few people who had just stopped Ye Liuyun, their expressions gradually stiffened, and some even said they were a little scared.
"This? Could this weird guy really be a relative of our Nangong family? It's over, he's dead. If this guy is really the eldest young lady's wife's brother, then what I did just now was just..." The guards felt that they were in big trouble, and the more they thought about it, the more scared they became.
So I couldn't help but ask quickly.
"Ms. Mu Yu, Master Mu Feng, this young man is really your uncle. How come we have never seen or heard of him?" the leading young man asked hurriedly.
His question actually had two meanings. One was to give everyone a heads-up in advance.
If there really is no problem with Ye Liuyun's identity, then it is simply because they just didn't know about it. Isn't that what is meant by ignorance being innocent?
At the same time, he also wanted to confirm with the two of them, or even remind them that the identity of the person in front of them might be an imposter.
In fact, they don't need to say too much. Although they both look like young people, they have lived for decades after all and have their own judgment.
Although they were 70% sure that the person in front of them was their uncle, many years had passed since they last saw Ye Liuyun.
So they were not quite sure whether the person in front of them was Ye Liuyun. They knew that Ye Liuyun was an immortal cultivator, but the identity of the person in front of them needed further confirmation.
"That's true, uncle. How do you prove that you are our uncle?" Nangong Mufeng thought for a while and then asked.
This problem made Ye Liuyun feel troubled.
"Proof? How can I prove it? Our Qixia Town is gone. The last time I met you was when I got married to your aunt. Afterwards, I returned to the sect." Ye Liuyun recalled, touching his chin.
It's true that the person who knew about this matter was a good person, and it was also one of the answers that proved his identity.
"Eh? That's right, that's right, brother, it must be right. I remember the smell of my uncle. There was a floral scent. Yes, that's right, that's the smell." Nangong Muyu came close to Ye Liuyun and smelled it.
When Ye Liuyun saw Nangong Muyu sticking her head towards him, he immediately reached out and pushed her little head away.
"Go away, are you a puppy? And there is a special smell on me, how come I don't know it?" Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes.
"It's definitely right. This smell can be found on my mother, second aunt and third aunt as well." Nangong Muyu put his head on Ye Liuyun's chest again and sniffed.
The corner of Ye Liuyun's mouth twitched violently, then he reached out again to push away the little girl who wanted to get close to his chest.
"The last time we met was indeed when my uncle and aunt got married. Well, forget it, let's go and let our mother verify the authenticity, right?" Although Nangong Mufeng felt that the person in front of him was his uncle Ye Liuyun.
However, I have some questions, which are not convenient to discuss here.
"Oh! Okay, then let my sister tell the authenticity." Ye Liuyun looked helpless.
Just when everyone was struggling, two figures fell from the sky and landed in front of Ye Liuyun in an instant.
No need to look, it’s Ye Ninglu and Nangong Yinghui who are here.
"Young Master, Young Madam." The people around them immediately saluted when they saw the two people coming.
"Mom and Dad, you're here. Please open the car quickly. Our uncle is here, but our brother said he's not sure if it's our uncle and wants you two to come and see him." Nangong Muyu quickly ran to Ye Ninglu and pointed at Ye Liuyun.
Ye Ninglu only took one look at Ye Liuyun and she was completely sure that she was not looking at Ye Liuyun's appearance, but at Ye Liuyun's eyes.
"You all go away. There is nothing left for you to do here." Nangong Yinghui waved to the guards around him.
Having said that, these people also understood that the person in front of them was indeed related to their Nangong family, so they all dispersed obediently, especially the guards who had clashed with Ye Liuyun.
They hurriedly returned to their original position. Not pursuing them was already the best outcome, so it was better to talk less nonsense.
After they left, Nangong Yinghui looked at Ye Ninglu. He had not seen Ye Liuyun many times, the last time they met was when Ye Liuyun was twelve years old, so he could not make a direct judgment.
Ye Ninglu nodded gently to her husband, telling Nangong Yinghui that he was not wrong.
Nangong Yinghui was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh! It's really you, kid. How did you find this place?" After getting confirmation from his wife, Nangong Yinghui immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then walked forward and laughed in shock.
However, Ye Liuyun dodged Nangong Yinghui and came in front of Ye Ninglu.
"Sister, I miss you so much." Ye Liuyun gave his sister a hug without any hesitation.
Actually, Ye Ninglu couldn't help herself just now, but because of some things, she couldn't show too much enthusiasm.
"Oh, you guy, it's been decades and you're still like this. Some things are not convenient to say here. Let's go inside and talk." Ye Ninglu said in a low voice.
Ye Liuyun was stunned, then turned to look at Nangong Yinghui and his two nephews.
"Hey, hey, hey, kid, do you know what it means that men and women should not have physical contact? Although Ninglu is your sister, she is my wife now, do you know that?" Nangong Yinghui was embarrassed.
Just now, he wanted to give his brother-in-law a long-lost hug, but Ye Liuyun dodged it.
But Ye Liuyun immediately snorted coldly at Nangong Yinghui.
"Tsk, you're a family, but you're hiding it from me. I don't even know your real name." Ye Liuyun complained.
These words suddenly made Nangong Yinghui embarrassed. He felt a little awkward and laughed a few times.
"Okay, okay, Mu Yu, Mu Feng, let's go back first. We can talk about anything when we get back." Ye Ninglu said.
Several people nodded, and finally entered the Nangong family and went to Nangong Yinghui's residence outside.
The structure of the Nangong family is rather strange. Mortals and cultivators live together. Although the cultivators are the ones guarding the Nangong family, the people in charge of the outside races are all mortals of the Nangong family.
Even the Nangong family cannot guarantee that all members of the family can practice. Those who cannot practice remain in the outer clan to serve as a front, while those who can practice enter the inner clan.
The current head of the inner clan is Nangong Yinghui's father, and Nangong Yinghui belongs to the direct line of the Nangong family.
The inner tribe does not allow outsiders to enter, so they certainly cannot bring Ye Liuyun into the inner tribe.
"Oh, it's okay, we're safe. I say, little brother, how did you find this place? Seriously, I heard from your brother-in-law that you were here, and I was so scared." As soon as she arrived at their residence, Ye Ninglu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked excitedly.
Seeing his sister's reaction, Ye Liuyun nodded with satisfaction. Ye Ninglu's reaction just now was too calm.
"Answer me first, what is going on? Aren't you a mortal? How did you suddenly become an immortal cultivator?" Ye Liuyun couldn't understand.
This question made Ye Ninglu feel a little embarrassed. She looked at her husband and said.
"Since you have come to find me, there is no need to hide it from you. This guy is called Nangong Hui, and he is the eldest son of the current generation of the Nangong family..."
Ye Ninglu began to carefully explain things that Ye Liuyun didn't know.
The general meaning is that the Nangong family has an unwritten rule, that is, in each generation, someone must first marry and have children as a mortal, and only after giving birth to a child can they practice cultivation.
Of course, the prerequisite is that it also depends on the qualifications of the offspring. If the qualifications are particularly good, then he can practice directly, and the task of passing on to future generations will be given to those with poor qualifications.
Nangong Hui has two brothers. In their generation, how should we put it, their aptitude was relatively poor, so Nangong Hui did not start practicing from the beginning, and he was indeed a mortal before.
They started practicing when they were around 30 years old.
After giving birth to Nangong Muyu and Nangong Mufeng, the two little ones had good aptitude, so they started practicing directly.
Therefore, the cultivation levels of these two little guys are higher than that of their parents.
Let’s talk about Ye Ninglu’s problem. Ye Ninglu is not an ordinary person. Don’t forget, she is the granddaughter of Li Muyun, and the bloodline that Li Muyun awakened is the emperor’s blood. The ancestor of the Li family is the Emperor Jiuxiao.
However, this Emperor Jiuxiao is a woman, and her bloodline will only awaken in female descendants. Of course, it is just a matter of probability.
And since Li Muyun has awakened the imperial blood, then Li Muyun's descendants, that is, the three sisters Ye Ninglu, are really the best bets, even though they have not awakened the imperial blood.
But it can also pass on this hidden bloodline through reproduction, and one day, someone will wake up.
Of course, the Li family’s bloodline is not uncommon in the Tang Kingdom. After all, it has been passed down for so many generations.
Ye Feiwu was a high-ranking official in the Tang Kingdom back then, so he must have had contact with the Nangong family. The Nangong family also knew that Ye Feiwu's wife had awakened the emperor's blood and was later brought back to the holy land by the Jiutian Holy Land.
Let alone anything else, just based on this relationship, Li Muyun’s three granddaughters are definitely the best.
The four families of the Tang Kingdom secretly contacted Ye Feiwu, and what happened next was very clear. The Ye family secretly married into the three families. Of course, this was to avoid the surveillance of the court and they could not use legitimate identities.
So, with the help of his family, Nangong Hui disguised his identity and became an ordinary merchant son in Jiangzhou Prefecture.
Given the Nangong family's status in Nanling, it would be easy for them to prevent the imperial court from finding any problems.
What happened next was that after Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue got married, the last stone in Ye Feiwu's heart fell. He had planned to fight the imperial court in the last possible time, but who could have thought that Ye Liuyun suddenly gave them an evergreen life-extending pill.
The arrival of this elixir caused Ye Feiwu to slightly modify his plan.
As for the Lin family, it was also easy to explain. Anyway, it was Ye Feiwu's idea to let their three daughters join the major sects in the secular world of the Tang Kingdom and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.
Therefore, the plan of the Lin and Ye families had been prepared many years ago, and had nothing to do with Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue.
Just as Ye Liuyun thought, Ye Feiwu finally waited for this opportunity after decades of silence.
Therefore, the rebellion of the Nine Princes in the Tang Kingdom was instigated by Ye Feiwu.
Of course, the reason why he didn't want to tell Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue was actually very simple. He just didn't want them to be involved. This fight seemed to be just a worldly fight, but in fact, it was not that simple.
If you lose the game, it will definitely bring disaster to future generations.
However, Ye Ninglu and the others definitely knew about his grandfather's plan and were willing to cooperate. But all of this was just preparation. Ye Feiwu had been considering whether to implement it collectively. It was not until the Ye family suddenly gave birth to a son that Ye Feiwu felt relieved and prepared to take a chance.
Ye Liuyun got a huge headache after hearing this. She had never expected that her grandfather had so many backup plans and made so many preparations.
"It's so complicated." Ye Liuyun was speechless after listening to his sister's story.
"Anyway, this is what happened. But I still don't understand how you knew I was in the Nangong family?" Ye Ninglu was a little confused.
To be honest, if Ye Liuyun hadn't met the Saint Lady, she probably wouldn't have thought of this problem, because her family's concealment of the matter from her and Lin Aoxue was too secretive.
"Yes, kid, I can guarantee that there is absolutely no flaw in our plan. Besides, the court has changed one or two generations of emperors over the years. How did you connect your Ye family with our Nangong family?" Nangong Hui was confused.
Now that they have spoken frankly, Ye Liuyun naturally cannot continue to hide things.
"Oh, I didn't know at first, but I met my grandma." Ye Liuyun said bluntly.
