Chapter 972 (Another Incident on the Other Side)

Who was that person to the emperor? Sister, wife, or mother?

But regardless of the identity, one thing was certain—she was a deity!

The entire Voidless Empire was protected by deities; who would dare to cause trouble? This was the most important concern for all the citizens of the Voidless Empire, as they felt their safety was now further protected.

They even felt that the Voidless Empire was the most powerful on the entire Sapphire Continent, and everything else was just mediocre.

Inside the palace, Ye Hua sat in Qing Yutong's palace enjoying breakfast. There was only a pancake roll, but it was one of Ye Hua's favourite breakfasts.

Every time he ate this pancake roll with added egg and ham, he would think of that elderly lady—the only person brave enough to scold him.

It couldn't be said that she scolded him; more accurately, she educated him.

But Ye Hua actually listened. Could it be that he needed education?

Nonsense.

Ye Hua had always been the one to educate others. When did it become someone else's turn to educate him?

"My Lord, the pancake roll won't taste good if it gets cold," Daji, who was serving on the side, reminded.

Ye Hua picked up the pancake roll from the plate and took a bite.

Today's pancake roll didn't taste as good; it lacked flavour.

He gently placed it on the table, and Ye Hua asked lightly, "Are you still standing outside?"

"Yes, Master."

Taking a deep breath, Ye Hua stepped out of the room. Daji quickly picked up the pancake roll from the table and, holding it to the spot where Ye Hua had just bitten, took a bite.

Daji revealed a satisfied smile—delicious.

For Daji, it was a kind of satisfaction.

Walking in his vast palace, Ye Hua found himself with nowhere to go. No matter where he went, everything felt boring.

Should he go find Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi?

He scolded them just yesterday. Going to them again today wouldn't suit Ye Hua's style.

Or should he go to Qian Yuqing?

When it came to this woman, Ye Hua didn't know how to choose.

Did he like her?

Impossible.

Did he not like her?

Did he save her last night?

Certainly, it was the mercy of this deity at play.

Indeed, back then, this deity shouldn't have bothered with cultivating human emotions. Now, it has resulted in creating someone so indecisive.

Always hesitating when making decisions.

Three days passed quickly, and Ye Hua still hadn't gone out to meet Qian Yuqing.

While Qian Yuqing continued to stand at the palace gate, her attitude was clear: If you don't meet me openly and honestly, don't even think about me leaving!

Things were stable here, but a major incident occurred in Spirit City!

Qian Yuqing's maid found that the young miss was missing!

The Qian family was in shock, and Huang Yun quickly received the news—his fiancée had disappeared!

He was immediately furious!

Ye Juetian thought that his sister-in-law could bring back his big brother within a day!

But unexpectedly, three days had passed, and the sister-in-law still hadn't returned, and her disappearance was discovered!

Due to Huang Yun's actions, the entire Spirit City was on high alert, conducting investigations!

Ye Juetian was extremely worried now. If this matter was exposed, it would definitely not be a good thing.

Moreover, Ye Juetian was sure that they would come for him soon!

Huang Yun must know, and he and his sister-in-law were close. What should he do now?

"Little Tian, are you outside?"

At this moment, Ye Juetian stood at the door of his mother's room, hearing Le Jing's cheerful call from inside.

Pushing the door open, Ye Juetian revealed a smile. "Mother."

Le Jing's expression improved a lot, with a hint of rosy colour, thanks to the Spirit Spring.

But Ye Juetian noticed that his mother seemed... a bit strange today, as if a bit excited.

"Little Tian, come to your mother." Le Jing called softly.

Ye Juetian walked to his mother's side and sat down. He smiled, "Mother, what's wrong?"

"Where did Yuqing go?" Le Jing asked directly.

Ye Juetian was stunned. Could it be that his mother had discovered something? This shouldn't be the case.

He had kept his relationship with the sister-in-law so secretive; his mother shouldn't have found out.

"Little Tian, Yuqing has never been like this before. She suddenly disappeared, and it happened after you went to find her. Mother isn't a fool. Tell me, is it because of your big brother!" Excited, Le Jing directly grabbed Ye Juetian's hand.

Ye Juetian felt the strength of his mother's grip and a slight trembling.

Knowing that after Yuqing disappeared, there was only one thought in Le Jing's heart—Yuqing must have received news about Ye Hua. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left like this.

"Little Tian! Tell your mother, have you found your big brother!"

Hearing his mother's plea, Ye Juetian finally couldn't bear it.

"Yes, I found my big brother. Sister-in-law went to see my big brother." Ye Juetian no longer concealed the truth. At the same time, he knew that even after his sister-in-law had been gone for days without any reaction, it was certain that his big brother didn't want to come back.

Upon hearing her son's words, Le Jing froze. Her lips trembled slightly, and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes.

Standing up, Le Jing knelt in front of the deity to worship, "Heaven bless my son, my Ye Hua is still alive."

As she spoke, Le Jing's tone became choked with emotion. Ye Juetian helped his mother up, "Mother, you must not get too excited."

"Little Tian, this is wonderful, absolutely wonderful!" Le Jing looked at her youngest son with joy, feeling like her world had suddenly become bright. After waiting so many years, today has finally come!

Ye Juetian didn't know what to say. His mother was so happy; would there be another scolding?

Looking at her son's expression, Le Jing gently stroked Ye Juetian's face, "Is Ye Hua unwilling to come back?"

Le Jing, being the wise woman she was, had a keen insight.

If Ye Hua wanted to return, he would have come back with him a long time ago.

If he wanted to come back, Qian Yuqing would have brought him back by now. Yet, Ye Hua still hadn't returned.

There was only one possibility: Ye Hua didn't want to come back.

"Mother, big brother has amnesia." Ye Juetian felt the need to explain.

Le Jing chuckled softly, "Then it makes sense. No wonder your big brother doesn't want to come back."

"Mother, but..."

"But what?"

Ye Juetian wanted to say something but hesitated. Should he say it or not?

"But big brother has changed a lot. He's not like the big brother from before." Ye Juetian still felt it necessary to speak up, to prepare his mother mentally. If big brother did come back, at least his mother would know and wouldn't be so heartbroken.

Le Jing sighed heavily, "Your big brother has amnesia, some changes are normal."

"But Mother, big brother's changes are not ordinary."

At this point, Le Jing had to be vigilant. Didn't she know Ye Hua's character? Always helping others, caring for the people, eliminating evil and injustice.

He did all kinds of good deeds, went wherever there was injustice, and rescued people living in dire situations.

That's why Ye Hua was deeply loved by the people back then.
