All Out

Under the slowly rising bright moon.

In front of a clean and tidy fountain.

A handsome young man and a beautiful young woman sat on a stone bench. The tranquil atmosphere made even the passing fireflies seem lazy, creating a beautiful scene that inspired one to compose a poem.

The scene that Yang Haohan, the Knight Temple Master Assassin Temple, Sheng Yue, the Temple Vice Hall Master the Soul Temple Priest Temple, San Shui, the Vice Hall Master Temple Vice Hall Master the Magic Temple, Ruo Shui, the Deputy Temple Master of the Priest Temple, Lin Chen, the Deputy Temple Master of the Magic Temple, Mo Wu, the Chief Elder of the Magic Temple, Ren Wo Kuang, the Ren Wo Kuang the Berserker Hall under the Warrior Temple, and a large number of Seventh Order, sixth, and Fifth Order extraordinary beings who rushed to the scene witnessed was just like this. The phrase "golden boy and jade girl" was extremely fitting.

"Shh..." Ye Qingcang raised his index finger and put it to his lips.

It's a very simple action.

But there are always some people who don't understand it.

"Bastard, let go of my daughter!" The sixth-tier archmage Lan Yanyu broke down instantly, completely ignoring Ye Qingcang's warnings. She even waved her staff, faster than the four Ninth Order experts Yang Haohan, Sheng Yue, San Shui, and Mo Wu, gathering water elements on it, intending to attack Ye Qingcang: "Who exactly are you?!"

Sheng Cai'er's eyelids twitched slightly.

There seem to be signs that he is coming to his senses.

But after vaguely sensing Ye Qingcang touch on her face, she gave up resisting and continued to fall into a deep sleep.

Even under Lan Yanyu's almost frantic gaze, he rubbed against Ye Qingcang's palm, completely letting down his guard.

A layer of milky-white soundproofing magic array unfolded.

Wrap Sheng Cai'er inside.

Make sure she is not disturbed by outside noise.

Only after he had finished all this did Ye Qingcang slowly glance at the woman who was Sheng Cai'er's mother in name and by blood. The water element gathered on the woman's staff seemed to have received some kind of command, and ran away like a wild horse. It only took a second at most, but a lot happened in that second.

"Aunt Lan, please allow me to address you this way, and to say something I shouldn't: if I didn't know you were Cai'er's mother, her biological mother, I would even suspect you were Cai'er's stepmother, or even her enemy..." Ye Qingcang's hand was still on Sheng Cai'er's shoulder; only in this way could he give Sheng Cai'er a little sense of security. "Cai'er hasn't slept well for a long time. She finally let down her guard and could get a good night's sleep, and you're so eager to wake her up again?"

Sheng Cai'er is very stubborn.

This is something that Lan Yanyu inherited.

Therefore, Lan Yanyu completely ignored Ye Qingcang's questions and counter-questions, letting them go in one ear and out the other. "Don't try to change the subject, what exactly do you want to do to Cai'er?"

"When I see you now, it's like seeing that little girl Chen Ying'er. Oh, right, it's also like seeing those two people who seemed to be important figures before..." Ye Qingcang suddenly understood why Sheng Cai'er was so stubborn. It wasn't hereditary, but rather, if Sheng Cai'er wasn't a little stubborn, she would probably become a doll in Lan Yanyu's hands. This woman was just too domineering. "Please find me someone I can communicate with, thank you."

Very polite.

Unfortunately, Lan Yanyu didn't care about such politeness.

However, once or twice might be overlooked, but a third time is unacceptable. Yang Haohan and the others would not allow Lan Yanyu to continue her arrogant behavior. Mo Wu, the chief elder of the Magic Temple, Lin Chen, the Vice Hall Master temple master of the Magic Temple, and Sheng Yue, the temple master of the Assassin Temple, all stopped Lan Yanyu's behavior, which resembled a tantrum.

Subsequently, Sheng Yue, the master of the Assassin Temple, stepped forward.

He explained the misunderstanding, "Please forgive me, Your Excellency. Yan Yu is Cai'er's biological mother. She spoke rashly in her anxiety... If you have any needs, you can talk to us old folks. Why make things difficult for a child?"

"Finally, someone reasonable has arrived." Compared to the irrational Lan Yanyu, Sheng Yue, as Sheng Cai'er's great-grandfather, was undoubtedly easier to communicate with. However, Ye Qingcang had to correct Sheng Yue's misunderstanding. "You may have misunderstood something. I did not make things difficult for Cai'er, and I have no demands. The reason I came to your world was because of a misunderstanding, which was resolved in the previous Warrior Training Ground. So, now, I am just here to see a friend."

"Your Excellency means..." Sheng Lingxin, the military commander of Exorcist City, frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Cai'er is your friend?"

"Nonsense!" Lan Yanyu laughed angrily, slamming her staff down so hard that the metal end shattered the stone bricks, seemingly venting her rage. "Do you think I don't know whether Cai'er has friends or not?"

That's not the point.

"The main focus is on my little granddaughter."

"Of course, one of the branch temple masters of my Soul Temple is still in a coma, and the temple master of the Warrior Temple is in the same situation."

The Vice Hall Master of the Soul Temple, San Shui, interrupted Lan Yanyu. Lan Yanyu cared about Sheng Cai'er because Lan Yanyu Sheng Cai'er was her daughter, and she also cared about Chen Ying'er because Chen Ying'er was her granddaughter. Their Lifebound Summoned Beast had broken its soul contract and run away; even if Chen Ying'er could swallow this insult, she, as her grandmother, couldn't. "Shouldn't you give us an explanation?"

"Everyone, please calm down." Yang Haohan, the Temple Master of the Knight Temple, the leader of the Temple Alliance, and a Ninth Order, second-level Divine Seal Knight, reassured his eager old comrades. "Perhaps the situation isn't as bad as you think. This... Ye Qingcang, I've roughly heard about what happened from that girl Chen Ying'er. We didn't come here with any ill intentions. Could you please come closer and explain the reasons to us in detail?"

After being summoned by Chen Ying'er, Ye Qingcang gave his name.

It's not surprising that Chen Ying'er remembered it.

It's not surprising that Yang Haohan knew this.

Meanwhile, Ruo Shui, the Vice Hall Master of the Priest Temple, tried to smooth things over. "Your Excellency may not know, but right now, our Human Race is at war with the Demon Race race. The Exorcist Pass important location. If it falls, the Demon Race will advance unimpeded, because behind the Exorcist Pass lies a plain, which is indefensible. At this critical juncture when our Human Race and the Demon Race are locked in a stalemate, we cannot allow any unknown powerful figure to infiltrate the city... So we apologize, we had no choice but to come to you. However, you can rest assured that as long as you are not a member of the Demon Race race, we will not harm you. Moreover, based on your attitude in the Warrior Training Ground, you should be a powerful figure who advocates peaceful solutions. We hope you can understand us and cooperate with us."

"See, wouldn't it have been better if you had said so earlier?" Ye Qingcang liked this attitude and this wording. He understood Yang Haohan and the others' difficulties; after all, understanding was paramount. "How about this, let's compromise. I'll cooperate with you, but only here... If I leave, Cai'er will definitely wake up, believe me; Cai'er is my friend, and I won't disturb her precious rest time because of you strangers; don't worry, I've set up a soundproof barrier, so you don't need to worry about being overheard. Let's understand each other, and please understand me too; what do you think?"
