Chapter 299 The Attention of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan

Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

On the purple cocoon of light, cracks are multiplying...

Finally, a large piece of the cocoon suddenly fell off. As the first piece fell off, the cocoon of light seemed to trigger a chain reaction, rapidly bursting open. A purple beam of light shot into the sky and collided with the spatial blockade, creating ripples of energy.

Ye Chen stared intently at the enormous purple pillar of light, and with his keen eyesight, he could vaguely make out a human figure inside.

The beam of light lasted for a moment, then slowly dimmed, and finally disappeared completely. The figure within it appeared directly in the sight of Ye Chen and Xin Yue.

The figure lay sprawled, her body enveloped in a soft purple light, giving her a bewitching appearance...

Her long, smooth purple hair cascaded down her back, landing on her shapely back. Her mature body, with its prominent breasts and buttocks, was a far cry from the charm of the little girl she once was.

Looking at that somewhat familiar and adorable face, this girl was none other than the grown-up Xiao Ziyan!

"Is this Zi Yan?"

Ye Xinyue stared dumbfounded at the girl with a stunningly mature and alluring figure. She couldn't believe that the little kid had developed so well; she was even better than herself and Han Yue...

Suddenly, Ye Xinyue felt a pang of bittersweetness.

Similarly, Han Yue, being a girl, noticed something similar to Ye Xinyue at first. However, Han Yue remained very reserved. Although she was also a girl, a blush immediately crept onto her face upon seeing such a scene.

then……

He gently poked Ye Xinyue's waist with his finger, and when the latter looked over, he subtly winked in a certain direction.

"Big brother! What are you doing... Close your eyes, close your eyes..."

Ye Xinyue gasped and rushed over, waving her hands to protect her best friend's chastity.

At this moment, Zi Yan, who was inside the pillar of light, lazily stretched, which immediately accentuated her already alluring curves even more perfectly...

Unfortunately, due to Ye Xinyue's interference and scolding, Ye Chen had no choice but to reluctantly close his eyes to maintain his image as a good older brother.

However, Ye Chen was still quite annoyed by Han Yue's little tricks.

I should have just left her in the Northwest Continent and let her come back on her own...

Lazily opening her eyes, Zi Yan glanced at Ye Chen beside her, who was being forced to close his eyes by Ye Xinyue. She felt a slight blush, but then a mischievous thought popped into her head. She made a charming and alluring invitation to him, saying, "Big brother, do you think I look good like this?"

"Look at you, hurry up and put your clothes on!" Ye Xinyue roared like a mother hen protecting her chicks, then instantly took out a set of her own clothes from her storage ring and rushed towards Zi Yan.

However, before Ye Xinyue could even touch her, Zi Yan trembled all over, and then a strange green light burst forth from her body. Under this green light, Zi Yan's body suddenly began to shrink at a visible speed. In just a few breaths, a beautiful woman with a delicate figure was transformed back into an ordinary little girl.

"Huh?!" Ye Xinyue was startled by this scene. She thought...

Realizing something had happened, Ye Chen quickly opened his eyes, and the excitement that had been on his face due to the beautiful scenery vanished instantly...

There was no way around it; he preferred the rolling hills to the endless plains.

Upon seeing this, Ye Xinyue, who was originally filled with jealousy, burst into laughter.

That's more like it. Children should act like children; it's wrong to change size at will...

"Hee hee hee……"

Zi Yan was also startled by her own transformation, but when she saw that her body had returned to its former form as a little girl, her two delicate eyebrows immediately furrowed. Looking at Ye Xinyue, who was gloating in front of her, she couldn't help but pounce on her in a fit of rage, scratching wildly at her body with both hands...

"I'll make you laugh, I'll make you laugh...!"

! ”

"Ah, ah, I'm not laughing anymore, I'm not laughing anymore... Oh, little Ziyan, don't tickle me..."

Watching the two girls playfully bickering, Ye Chen shook his head speechlessly and said, "Alright, alright, this should still be the Transformation Grass in Zi Yan's body at work... Hmm, it will be fine once her strength improves in the future."

Of course, Ye Chen knew that solving Zi Yan's body shape problem didn't necessarily require waiting for her strength to improve. He knew there was more than one way to help her.

However, for the time being, Ye Chen still felt that it was cuter to keep Xiao Ziyan in her small form. He could let her grow up when the time was right...

"Hmph! Damn Transformation Grass..." After jumping off Ye Xinyue, Zi Yan immediately crossed her arms and twisted her body, sulking.

Helpless, Ye Chen could only glare at his younger sister, who was still trying not to laugh, and give her a look, telling her to go and comfort the little girl.

It's important to understand that growing up has always been one of Zi Yan's biggest aspirations. Now that she had the chance, losing it again would be a huge blow to a child.

Xin Yue stuck out her tongue, pursed her lips shyly, and then quickly went to the little girl wearing her "floor-length dress" and began to whisper something to her...

Ye Chen ignored their whispered conversation and instead focused on Zi Yan's current cultivation level...

"It seems that coming to the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool was the right decision. This girl has a powerful aura equivalent to a peak human Dou Huang level right after breaking through. She truly lives up to her reputation as an ancient dragon with the bloodline of the Dragon Emperor!"

Because of the dragon's might that Ye Chen unleashed when he stopped Zi Yan's breakthrough, even though Tianmu Mountain was filled with a large number of magical beasts, and even the Gold-Eating Rat Clan like Jinshi, no one discovered Zi Yan's identity.

This is also the fundamental reason why Ye Chen personally oversaw and protected Zi Yan during her breakthrough.

What he didn't expect was that sometimes it wasn't just aura that allowed one to sense an enemy. Some mortal enemies, deeply ingrained in one's bloodline, could use that connection deep within their blood to detect the other's presence...

"Ancient Void Dragon?! How could this be..."

Feng Qing'er was shocked and immediately thought of escaping.

After all, their senses are mutual. If Feng Qing'er can sense the annoying aura unique to the Ancient Dragon of the Void, then surely the other party can sense her too?

Judging from the fact that the other party was able to block the entire Tianmu Mountain Range and scare away Venerable Huangquan, their strength is definitely very strong. So if she stays any longer, she may not be able to leave!

Chapter 300 Tianbei City

Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

As Feng Qing'er fled the Tianmu Mountains in a panic, Little Fairy Doctor in the sky had already spotted her, but she didn't pay any attention to it.

After all, many people have escaped in this way during this period, and someone who is not even a Dou Zong is not worth her attention.

Meanwhile, Xiao Ziyan, who had finished dressing and playing with Ye Xinyue, suddenly paused, her brows furrowed as she looked down the mountain in a certain direction...

"What's wrong?" Ye Xinyue asked curiously, noticing Zi Yan's change in demeanor. "Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

After frowning and thinking for a long time, Zi Yan still shook her head somewhat blankly and said, "I don't know, I just felt that there was a very annoying presence in some direction just now, but it disappeared very quickly..."

"I don't know if I'm just imagining things."

Clearly, Zi Yan, who didn't even know what her own true form was, had no idea about the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, which allowed Feng Qing'er to escape unscathed.

Beside her, Ye Xinyue thought for a moment, but she didn't know what Zi Yan meant either. In the end, she could only shrug and stand aside.

Only Ye Chen suddenly realized a possibility...

However, he didn't voice his guess, as it would be pointless. After clapping his hands to attract the three women's attention, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Alright, now that you've all cultivated and advanced as needed, it's time for us to leave..."

"Next, where are we going?" Ye Chen asked, turning his gaze to Han Yue beside him.

If she remembered correctly, the Han family should be the second largest family in Tianbei City.

However, before he could get a response from Han Yue, Xin Yue spoke up first...

"Brother, I have already invited Sister Yue to visit the Ye family. If possible, let's go to Tianbei City first and have Sister Yue inform the family before returning to the Ye family, is that alright?"

Ye Chen simply shrugged and said, "What's wrong with that? It's not that far anyway."

Upon hearing Ye Chen's agreement, Ye Xinyue let out an excited squeal. Han Yue also gave Ye Chen a grateful look, then said softly, "Thank you so much, Brother Ye, thank you for your trouble..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly at her, then said loudly to the three women, "Alright, now that we have a destination, let's set off!"

……

……

After running for hundreds of miles, Feng Qing'er finally stopped the seven-colored giant crane beneath her feet.

Looking at the calm sky behind her, Feng Qing'er gritted her teeth and took out a golden feather. She then sealed a piece of information inside it using a secret technique. After quickly changing her hand seals, she threw the feather into the air and watched it disappear into the void under the golden light. Only then did she let out a long sigh of relief.

"An immature Void Ancient Dragon has actually appeared in the Northern Region of Central Continent. Could it be that this race, which has been hidden for thousands of years, is about to emerge again? If so, this news must be sent to the clan immediately so that they can make full preparations!"

Although Feng Qing'er was too young to have even seen what the Ancient Void Dragon looked like, that didn't stop her from sensing the hatred that came from their bloodline. The moment the two met, it would inevitably...

It's a fight to the death; there's absolutely no possibility of peaceful coexistence. "Next, we still need to use the power of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion to track their movements..." Feng Qing'er silently made a decision in her heart.

There was no way she could do something so dangerous herself; otherwise, she might end up as someone else's meal before the tribe's reinforcements even arrived...

She certainly wouldn't do something so mindless.

……

……

When Ye Chen and his group left the Tianmu Mountains, it was noon, and when they saw Tianbei City, it was only just approaching dusk.

This was because the two Dou Wang girls, Han Yue and Ye Xinyue, were "dragging down" them, forcing Ye Chen and his group to slow down.

Tianbei City is considered a medium-sized city in the Northern Region, so it appears quite prosperous and bustling.

With Han Yue, the eldest daughter of the Han family, leading the group, Ye Chen and his companions entered the city without any obstacles and successfully arrived at the Han family manor.

Because Han Yue was afraid that her family might not know Ye Chen and the others' identities and thus offend them, she immediately reminded her father, Han Chi, the current head of the Han family, after entering the family.

Although the identities of Ye Chen and the others were not explicitly stated, as long as it was mentioned that Ye Chen was an alchemist of a grade seven or higher, the Han family immediately treated them with the highest level of hospitality in the family.

Ye Chen didn't seem to care much about this. He simply exchanged a few polite words with Han Chi before heading straight to his guest room to rest.

He didn't care what the Han family would say next.

However, as Ye Chen led Little Fairy Doctor and her entourage away from the reception room, he didn't see a girl among the Han family members who looked about seven-tenths like Han Yue, but appeared slightly more immature, looking at him with a questioning gaze...

"This man is really handsome, and judging from how my father and sister treat him, they are even more respectful than when that elder from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion came to Tianbei City. Could it be that his status is higher than those elders from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion?"

As the girl pondered this, her curiosity grew even stronger.

"No, I must ask my sister about these people's identities later..."

Even if a curious glance from a Han family girl could attract Ye Chen's attention, the latter wouldn't care.

During the half-month that Ye Chen spent guarding Zi Yan's advancement in the Tianmu Mountains, Ye Chen's cultivation also broke through one star again, becoming a two-star Dou Zun.

However, under his deliberate control, this breakthrough was very subtle and did not attract much attention. It was only because Little Fairy Doctor, who was also a Dou Zun, and whose auras were intertwined with each other, that she was able to clearly perceive Ye Chen's subtle changes.

However, their combat strength cannot be judged by their cultivation level, so they had a much easier and more comfortable journey without having to hide anything anymore.

For once, Ye Chen had a peaceful place to rest tonight. Instead of absorbing star power or cultivating battle qi as usual, he leisurely watched the sky with Little Fairy Doctor...

The two nestled together in the starlight and moonlight, whispering their love for each other and enjoying this rare moment of tenderness.

Having achieved the final harmony of life, he then drifted into a blissful sleep.

Chapter 301 Forced Marriage

Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

The next day, Ye Chen opened the door when the sun was high in the sky.

Looking at one of the three Yao brothers, who seemed to have been waiting there for quite some time, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Ye Chen's slightly furrowed brows, Yao Lao Er quickly stepped forward and whispered, "It seems the Han family has run into some trouble. Miss went there immediately after finding out, and Old Hu, worried, followed her..."

Clearly, Hu Tian wasn't worried about whether the Han family would be in trouble; his main concern was that Ye Xinyue would be affected.

"Trouble? Who would cause trouble for the Han family at this time?" Ye Chen glanced around and noticed that all the Han family guards who were originally there had been evacuated. Clearly, this trouble was no ordinary matter.

However, according to the timeline in the original work, the Hong family, which was at odds with the Han family, should not have really gotten involved with the Fenglei Pavilion at this time. Without the backing of the Fenglei Pavilion, the simple Hong family would not be so unwise as to directly confront the Han family.

"Could it be that because of me, the future trajectory of the Han family has also changed?"

Thinking about this, Ye Chen's curiosity was piqued...

"Let's go and take a look."

As he stepped out, Ye Chen's soul power instantly enveloped the entire Han family manor.

Outside the Han family's front hall, a large number of people were gathered, creating an atmosphere of extreme tension.

The spacious front yard had been divided into two distinct camps. On one side were the Han family and their group, while on the other side stood nearly a hundred figures clad in red robes. These people stood ramrod straight, wearing the family crest representing the Hong family on their chests, exuding a rather domineering aura…

In the middle of the two sides, an old man stood at the head of the Han family, flanked by Han Chi, the head of the Han family, and Han Yue, the eldest daughter of the Han family, on his left and right.

After taking off her Canaan Academy student uniform, Han Yue's perfect curves were accentuated by her silver dress, making a young man of similar age opposite her feel a burning desire in his heart.

This woman is definitely mine!

"Han Yue, I heard yesterday that you returned from Canaan Academy. Today, I had my father bring generous gifts to propose marriage. You should have seen my sincerity!" The young man made no attempt to hide the fervor in his eyes as he spoke directly to Han Yue.
