Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

The shameless Shenfeng still managed to freeload a meal at Ye Ling's place, making Ye Ling give him nothing but cold looks throughout dinner.

"Hey, hey, hey, look at you. Just mooch food if you must, but as a high-ranking official, why do you eat like a pig, as if you were a starving ghost reborn?"

However, with Shenfeng giving a thumbs up in praise of Wang Shufen's cooking skills, Ye Ling restrained himself from smacking the guy to death.

"Look, look, look at him making faces. That's a provocation, isn't it?"

And when Wang Shufen found out that Shenfeng was Shen Yuexin's cousin, she became even more enthusiastic. After all, this was a relative of one of her son's girlfriends, and she had to make sure to host him well so as not to disgrace the Ye Family.

As it turned out, after the meal, Shenfeng even had the audacity to say he wanted to stay in touch and develop a closer relation with Wang Shufen, since he was now representing Shen Yuexin's family after all.

"Shenfeng! If you don't get lost in one minute, no! In half a minute, I swear I'll turn all your meridians into dust!" Ye Ling said fiercely.

Shenfeng immediately trembled, hurriedly stood up, and as he reached the door he called back to Wang Shufen who had come to see him out, "Auntie, no need to see me off, I'm leaving now. Rest assured, I've got Ye Ling and Yue Xin's matters in hand, there won't be any problem with our families."

"He respects the elderly and loves the young, and keeps the nation's affairs close to his heart; he's courageous and righteous—it's like he's a role model!" Shenfeng said, leaning against the doorframe and swinging his leg.

Ye Ling's face darkened. Was this ruffian really an official? Or a small-time thug from some drama troupe?

Upon hearing this, Wang Shufen was immediately overjoyed. She had always been worried about the Shen Family's opinion of Ye Ling, considering Shen Yuexin was the President and Chairman of Huamei Group.

She knew all too well what kind of guy her own Ye Ling was, with his being a university graduate being the only thing she could ever take pride in him for in this lifetime.

Of course, Ye Ling's recent dramatic change and his current self were both sources of Wang Shufen's pride.

Ye Ling, who had kicked Shenfeng out, firmly closed the door and hugged Wang Shufen, saying, "Don't listen to that guy's nonsense, or he'll brainwash you before you know it. You know these government meal-eaters are the best at brainwashing."

"Besides, who is your son now? The Shen Family, the Liu Family, which one would reject me? Right, Yue Xin?" As he spoke, Ye Ling tilted his head toward Shen Yuexin.

Shen Yuexin's face instantly darkened, and she turned to sit on the sofa, muttering, "I really don't know if choosing this bastard was the right decision or not."

Liu Qiao'er also sat next to Shen Yuexin, holding her hand and laughing, "Well, I was tricked by him too, otherwise I would never have fallen for such a liar."

Everyone laughed. Wang Shufen also knew that these prospective daughters-in-law were joking and pointed at Ye Ling, saying, "This little rascal, having you girls is his good fortune. I reckon the Ye Family's ancestral graves must be billowing with thick smoke by now."

All the girls were taken aback, but Ye Ling laughed, suddenly finding his mother quite humorous.

Just then, the doorbell rang. Zang Hua went to open the door, and it was Lin Yuqing. She walked straight into the house and up to Ye Ling, her eyes slightly red.

"Big Brother Ye, I was wrong. I shouldn't have thrown a tantrum and cried. Can you forgive me?" Lin Yuqing said, her lips pouting in grievance.

Ye Ling stood up and rubbed Lin Yuqing's head, "Silly girl, it's me who should say sorry."

"Really? Then when will you teach me how to cultivate into an immortal, Big Brother Ye? I want to beat up the bad guys!" Lin Yuqing said excitedly, swinging her fists.

Ye Ling was taken aback and looked at Zang Hua and Liu Qiao'er, who nodded at him. However, Shen Yuexin and Wang Shufen both looked stunned.

Cultivate into an immortal?

This girl must be sick, right?

"Ye Ling, is there really such a thing as becoming an immortal?" Shen Yuexin, as a Houtian martial artist herself, was aware of the existence of Foundation Establishment Stage powerhouses, but was the concept of becoming an immortal true?

Ye Ling nodded, "If there are powerhouses in the Foundation Establishment Stage, then the idea of becoming immortal is indeed plausible."

"Son, are you having a fever?" Wang Shufen looked worriedly at all the abnormal women in the room.

Becoming immortal?

For thousands of years, how many powerful emperors have coveted immortality for long, yet who has succeeded?

"Mother, it's true, and I can teach you the techniques. Although in today's era, becoming immortal has almost become a fantasy, there's always a chance for miracles, right?" Ye Ling said with a casual smile.

Wang Shufen hurriedly rubbed her forehead. While she did believe in Buddhism, faith and science weren't the same.

"Big Brother Ye, then are there really gods in the sky?" Lin Yuqing asked excitedly.

Ye Ling nodded, "There are, but not in the sky. They are in another space, a vast expanse where immortal power is abundant—a holy land for cultivation. Yet it is more bleak and realistic than our current society."

"Then are there Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie?" Lin Yuqing's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Ye Ling was taken aback for a moment, picturing in his mind an imposing figure standing between heaven and earth, defying the Heavenly Emperor, aiming to turn the world upside down. The monkey who had fallen in battle during his calamity, it was uncertain whether he was dead or alive now.

"Are there any Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?" Wang Shufen quickly asked, praying every day, hoping the Buddha and Bodhisattvas would grant Ye Ling a lifetime of peace. Now she wanted to know if there really was such a deity receiving her prayers.

Ye Ling nodded, "There are, but Mother, you should know that even gods are just like people, possessing inconceivable means. In the future, you all can do the same!"

"You all wait at home. Shen Yue Xin and I will go out for a bit to prepare the necessary items. When we come back, I'll help you refine your bodies, and then teach you how to cultivate," Ye Ling said before leaving with Shen Yue Xin.

Inside the villa, Lin Yuqing jumped up excitedly, waving her fists and shouting. As a naive and straightforward person, her thoughts were simple.

She didn't consider how difficult cultivation could be; she only knew that she was about to become very powerful, a heroine no less, able to walk on walls and fly through the air!

Wang Shufen was also praying fervently, overwhelmed with excitement. Even she couldn't contain her enthusiasm for the legendary practice of cultivation.

In the car outside, Ye Ling looked at Shen Yuexin with a serious expression, "Yue Xin, tell me, what was that ban inside you when I came to rescue you?"

Ye Ling still remembered the terrifying ban within Shen Yuexin, which even he perceived as having a hint of deathly aura.

Fear flashed in Shen Yuexin's eyes, but it disappeared in a blink, and she took a deep breath, her gaze uncertain as she looked forward.

"That ban must have been set by someone in the Foundation Establishment Stage at the very least. Does the Shen Family have such a powerful person?" Ye Ling, once an Immortal Emperor, of course sensed the ban's strength and weakness.

Shen Yuexin nodded, "That ban was indeed laid by an elder in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but he is not from my Shen Family. It was set by the person who wants to kill me!"

Ye Ling was suddenly startled. So the person who wanted to kill Shen Yuexin had also set a ban to prevent the deadly qi inside her from erupting?
