Giving Birth But Not Raising, Why Are You Crying Now That I’ve Become an Immortal Emperor? - Chapter 29 - Chapter 29 – Ye Chang He Will Return to the Ye Family!

As Ye Chang just stood firm, he slightly pursed his lips, and a subtle, impatient voice of inquiry immediately reached Qin Yao’s ears.

Qin Yao didn’t respond immediately. She simply raised her hand and silently pointed forward.

Following the direction of Qin Yao’s finger, Ye Chang turned and immediately noticed the young figure sitting cross-legged in front of the Sword Forest. His gaze froze in place.

Could this young man be my son?

“Son…” At this moment, the man, who had experienced countless battles and was as resolute as iron, felt his mighty body waver slightly.

After searching for twenty years, he had finally found his child, and Ye Chang felt a sudden sense of relief, as if a heavy weight had been lifted off his heart.

If it weren’t for the presence of others, he would have wanted to throw his head back and howl at the sky, releasing the guilt and frustration that had accumulated in his heart for many years.

Qin Yao, clearly noticing the excitement in his eyes, quietly pulled him aside and gently explained, “I heard that this child seems to have been found by the Empress of Great Chu while traveling outside, and was adopted into the imperial palace.”

“My disciple said she heard people in the palace calling the child’s name—Ye Lingyun.”

“So, I think there’s a very good chance that he is our son!”

Qin Yao spoke softly, her lips trembling slightly, and her eyes gradually reddened. At this moment, seeing her beloved again, she could no longer hide the complicated emotions within her heart.

Upon hearing this, a sharp light suddenly flashed in Ye Chang’s eyes, and his spirit was lifted.

“Yao’er, if we want to confirm whether this child is our son, it’s very simple!”

“Our Ye family has had the bloodline of the Human King flowing through us for generations. Anyone from the Ye family will awaken their bloodline when they come of age!”

“It’s just that the extent of awakening differs, and the strength of the bloodline varies, but there will always be some manifestation. Moreover, if he truly is my son, the bloodline power will definitely not be weak!”

“As long as we can investigate this child, we’ll be able to fully confirm his identity!”

Ye Chang comforted her.

Hearing this, Qin Yao gently nodded, then turned her gaze back to the Sword Forest and said, “Alright, but this child is currently trying to comprehend the sword intents in the Sword Forest, aiming to gain the recognition of the Taibai Immortal Sword.”

“He is very talented.”

Ye Chang frowned slightly upon hearing this and also looked toward Ye Lingyun, replying, “Then we’ll wait for him to finish comprehending.”

“But for a child of his age to seek the recognition of an immortal sword, isn’t that a bit too ambitious?”

“Even our Ye family’s ancestor, Sword Master Yi, who was born with the seed of the sword path, one of the strongest sword cultivators in the Nine Provinces and Eight Wastelands, failed to obtain the Taibai Immortal Sword in his time.”

Qin Yao pursed her red lips and didn’t respond, instead falling into silence. After a moment, she softly spoke again, “Maybe this child will succeed.”

“Brother Chang, do you think he will blame us?”

“Back then, he was so young… he was…”

At this point, Qin Yao sighed deeply, a look of sadness on her face. She couldn’t finish the sentence.

Nearby, the two sisters, Liu Ruohong and Liu Ruoxue, stared at the two of them in astonishment. Their curious eyes darted back and forth between Qin Yao and Ye Chang.

The two women exchanged a glance, and a subtle expression of gossip appeared on their identical faces.

It seems like Master cares a lot about Ye Tian…

What’s going on?

The sisters, hand in hand, quietly retreated to the side and began whispering.

“Yao’er, our son must have suffered a lot over the years, I know that, but we can make it up to him.”

“Our Ye family has had a Human King in our ancestry, and even now, we have the best cultivation resources in the Nine Provinces. We are one of the top families in the Nine Provinces!”

“Trust me, he will come back.”

“After all, with him cultivating outside, could he find better resources than what the Ye family has to offer? We’ll make it up to him with all our strength.”

Ye Chang looked at his wife, whose face was full of worry, and comforted her, his words showing immense confidence. In his view, Ye Lingyun would definitely choose to return to the family!

The Ye family’s reputation stretches across the Nine Provinces and beyond!

Perhaps, once Ye Lingyun learns of this, he will even be happy about his heritage!

However, unlike his confidence, Qin Yao slowly shook her head.

“Not necessarily.”

“Brother Chang, I think that child is upright and determined, and he has some pride and stubbornness. I fear he may not be willing to return to the Ye family.”

At this point, her expression darkened again. Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, and she covered her lips with her hand, her voice choking as she said, “It’s all my fault. If I had agreed not to send him away for fostering, and had stayed by his side to watch him grow up carefree, how much better it would have been…”

“He has been alone out there all these years. I don’t know how much hardship and injustice he’s suffered.”

Seeing her so full of self-reproach, Ye Chang felt even more heartbroken. He quickly comforted her.

…

Time passed slowly, and a month later.

On the high platforms around the Sword Forest, the once bustling crowd had mostly dispersed. Only Qin Yao and a few others remained, still anxiously waiting for Ye Lingyun. The rest had already left.

After all, almost no one had expected Ye Lingyun to succeed in gaining the Taibai Immortal Sword’s recognition, making it reappear after crossing a thousand years of time.

However, there were exceptions.

The siblings Li Yang and Li Yue from the Demon God Palace had stayed behind and never left.

“Big Brother, it’s been almost a month. This person can’t possibly succeed. Let’s go!”

“Things aren’t that easy. That’s an immortal sword!”

Li Yue, dressed in a purple skirt and with an exquisite face, crossed her arms and stood in front of Li Yang, sulking and speaking to him. Her slender pale legs peeked out from under her skirt, looking incredibly beautiful.

To block Li Yang’s unwavering gaze toward the Sword Forest, she even stood on tiptoe and acted like a spoiled young lady.

However, due to the height difference between them, even though she tried her hardest, she could only barely reach Li Yang’s nose, and eventually had to give up. She then angrily covered his eyes with her hands.

Only then did Li Yang finally withdraw his gaze.

He helplessly pulled her hands away and nodded.

“Alright, it seems I overestimated him. Gaining the recognition of an immortal sword is indeed too difficult.”

“Let’s go.”

…

Inside the Sword Tomb.

【You observed the Canghong Spirit Sword, its shadow crossing the sky, transcending the mundane, comprehending the Canghong Sword Intent, achieving perfection.】

【You observed the Lei Xuan Spirit Sword, with the thunder splitting the sky and purple lightning shocking the dragon, comprehending the Lei Xuan Sword Intent, achieving transformation.】

After sitting still for over a month, Ye Lingyun finally slowly opened his eyes. His calm gaze glanced at the surroundings.

At this moment, the sword intent he had comprehended had reached one thousand and ninety-nine paths, just one short.

But all the broken swords around him had already been comprehended!

Seeing this, he pondered for a moment, and a cheerful smile slowly appeared on his handsome face.

“Then, for this last one, I will use my own sword intent!”

As soon as his words fell, the thousands of sword intents within his body suddenly surged!

The complex sword intents intertwined and fused together.

In an instant, an overwhelming sword intent burst out, piercing the sky!

At the same time, a few words slowly emerged from the top of the stone stele’s leaderboard in the distance.

Ye Tian, one thousand one hundred sword intents!
