Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

When Ye Feng and Hong Qingyan returned to the square, the three Elders of the Hong Clan undoubtedly wore expressions of pained distress. However, things being what they were, they wouldn't say anything more.

"Now that the matter is resolved, the two of us will take our leave," said Ye Feng as he clasped his fists in farewell, then took Hong Qingyan's hand, ready to leave.

Because Ye Feng could tell that while the three Clan Elders of the Hong Family were outwardly courteous, they still harbored resentment and even murderous intent towards him inside.

If it were not for the fact that their strength did not permit it, these three venerable Elders of the Hong Family would probably have attacked him, to thoroughly eradicate him; hence, Ye Feng did not wish to engage in any superfluous pleasantries with these individuals.

"Wait a moment!" Elder Tai Jia of the Clan suddenly said, waving his hand.

"What else is there?" Ye Feng asked, frowning.

Elder Tai Jia of the Clan waved his hand and said, "I have something to explain to Hong Qingyan and I have an item to pass on to her!"

As he spoke, Elder Tai Jia of the Clan walked forward, his wrist turning over to reveal a square box in the palm of his hand.

"Inside this box is the Heart of Blood Qi, formed from the Qi-Blood by a predecessor of our Ancient Clan of the Hong Family – also an Inheritor of the Bloodline of the Wings of Light – upon his demise. I am now entrusting it to you," said Elder Tai Jia of the Clan, passing the box to her.

Hong Qingyan, however, was stunned and said, "A family predecessor, an Inheritor of the Bloodline of the Wings of Light, left a Heart of Blood Qi formed from his own Blood Qi upon death. That means this Heart of Blood Qi should contain the Power of Bloodline Inheritance. If you were to refine and absorb it, you would likely have a high chance of inheriting the Bloodline of the Wings of Light."

Having said this, Hong Qingyan looked toward the three Clan Elders and asked, "I'm a bit puzzled. You previously said you would try everything possible to strip me of the Power of Bloodline Inheritance, so why don't you refine and absorb this Heart of Blood Qi?"

The three Clan Elders of the Hong Family, upon hearing this, involuntarily bowed their heads, their faces flushing with embarrassment.

The Holy Elder of the Confucian Sect couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter, "Little girl, do you really think they don't want to refine and absorb it? It's not that they don't want to, but they can't!"

"Can't? Why not?" Hong Qingyan asked.

The Holy Elder of the Confucian Sect explained, "That's because the predecessor of your Hong Family set a dying testament, swearing that only someone who also possesses the Bloodline of the Wings of Light could inherit his Heart of Blood Qi, strictly preventing the ordinary clan members from refining and absorbing it."

Hong Qingyan's brow furrowed deeper, and she asked, "I still don't quite understand. Since I've already awakened this Bloodline of the Wings of Light, why should I inherit his Heart of Blood Qi? Isn't this redundant?"

That Elder Tai Jia of the Clan scoffed coldly, "Of course, if you don't want it, you can refuse. I'm simply following the wishes of our clan's ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Hong Qingyan immediately took the box and said, "Why would I refuse? Naturally, it's a gift from a senior of our ancestors. Of course, I want it."

Elder Tai Jia of the Clan had thought she would refuse, but seeing Hong Qingyan take the box without a word, the corner of his mouth twitched. Nevertheless, it wasn't appropriate to object, nor was it good to say more.

To everyone's surprise, Hong Qingyan then handed the box to Ye Feng, saying, "Big Brother Ye, now that I've awakened the Bloodline of the Wings of Light, I don't need this Heart of Blood Qi. Better give it to you. If you can also awaken the Power of Bloodline Inheritance of the Wings of Light, then your strength will surely advance by another step."

Elders Tai Jia, Tai Yi, and Tai Bing of the Hong Clan felt like their eyeballs were falling to the ground, their hearts bleeding in agony. They say a daughter married off is like water poured out, and in some sense, this sentence wasn't wrong at all.

Fortunately, Ye Feng was not a greedy person. He shook his head with a smile and said, "Since the ancestor of the Hong Family arranged it this way, there must be good reason for it. Besides, I don't need this Heart of Blood Qi. Qingyan, you should keep it for yourself, especially for refining and absorbing it in one fell swoop when breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm!"

"All right then," Hong Qingyan nodded slightly.

Upon seeing this, the three Elders Tai Jia, Tai Yi, and Tai Bing of the Hong Clan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, I will take Hong Tianguo with me. In the future, I will definitely find a way to completely cure him. Farewell!" Ye Feng clasped his fists again, then he and Hong Qingyan prepared to leave.

As for Hong Tianguo, who had fallen into a state of suspended animation, he had been stored by Ye Feng in his special Storage Magic Treasure. In the most specific area inside it, where the Dragon Egg was located, living beings could be stored, so placing Hong Tianguo there would cause no issues. On the contrary, it would be very safe.

Moreover, what Ye Feng did not expect was that although the Dragon Egg was continuously absorbing the various special Energy Stones prepared by the Old Dragon, a very small portion of it was also emitting and ultimately seeping into Hong Tianguo's body, which was of course a great blessing for Hong Tianguo.

However, Ye Feng did not tell Hong Qingyan about this, thinking of giving her a surprise later.

Just as Ye Feng was about to leap up and leave, the Sacred Elder of the Confucian Sect suddenly waved his hand and said, "Please wait a moment, may I speak a few words?"

Ye Feng had no choice but to halt his movements and said, "You are the Sacred Elder of the Confucian Sect, yes? Please speak freely."

The Sacred Elder of the Confucian Sect nodded slightly and walked towards Ye Feng. Then, before everyone, he bowed sincerely to Ye Feng and said with clasped hands, "I, Zigu of the Sacred Elders of the Confucian Sect, greet Lord Leader. From now on, the Confucian Sect will heed the orders of Lord Leader without question!"
