My Cousin Is a Rich Woman? The Divine Heavenly Emperor Sword!

Three days later, in Ye Linglong's bedchamber.

On the soft, spacious bed, Ye Linglong held Ye Tian in her arms, sleeping soundly.

She was still bleary-eyed, while Ye Tian had long since woken up. But he was trapped between her peaks, unable to move at all.

Ye Tian's eyes betrayed his exasperation. He felt as though fate had him by the throat.

He thought, When can I finally escape these days as a baby? I don't want to be held while I sleep!

System: Once you grow up, you'll miss the days when a pretty big sister held you while you slept.

If he hadn't feared that his mother would punish Ye Linglong, he would have run outside long ago to admire this beautiful world.

"Mmm, hehe, my little brother is so big. You're growing bigger by the day. Let your big sister hold you."

A dark line nearly formed across Ye Tian's forehead. What on earth was she dreaming about?! Couldn't she show a little restraint?

Did she really think she could do whatever she wanted to him just because he was a baby?!

Although their blood relationship was so distant that it could already be disregarded.

Within the Eternal Ye Family's grounds, a flying ship appeared, built entirely of gold and gemstones, decorated with jade, pearls, and other jewels. It was extravagantly luxurious.

It was enormous, like a miniature sun, radiating dazzling light and blotting out the sky.

At its prow stood a massive divine tree, its ancient trunk towering skyward. Glittering golden fruit hung from its branches, and golden light wreathed the entire tree, making it look incomparably sacred.

Any knowledgeable, widely learned cultivator would recognize it at a glance. This was a Qilin Divine Tree, a treasure so precious that even undying sects and supreme sacred lands possessed only a handful.

Yet one had actually been transplanted onto a flying ship. That alone revealed how terrifyingly wealthy the ship's owner was—wealth beyond imagination, far exceeding that of sacred lands, great families, and other major powers.

"Isn't that the Divine Dragon Ship? Has Ye Xinxin returned?"

"She's a legend of Myriad Heavens Commerce, with businesses spanning all the heavens and myriad worlds. She bankrolls the Eternal Ye Family and is the god of commerce among the younger generation. What important matter brought her back to the Lineage this time?"

Countless Ye Family disciples gazed upward, sighing in amazement. Ye Xinxin's legend seemed like a dream. If it hadn't truly happened, they wouldn't have believed it even if someone beat them to death.

Someone had actually built a vast commercial empire spanning all the heavens and myriad worlds at the age of twenty-four, with countless undying powers maintaining close business partnerships with her.

At the prow stood a woman who seemed set apart from the mortal world. Dressed in fine silk, she had a stunning figure worthy of a peerless beauty, with long, slender, jade-like legs.

She gazed down at the Eternal Ye Family with tenderness in her eyes, let out a long breath, and murmured, "I'm... back again. I wonder whether the rumors are true."

"I'm certainly curious about this cousin of mine. He can casually refine heaven-grade pills from dirt and learn a peerless sword art at a glance, yet his natural aptitude is ordinary. Haha, he really gives me something to look forward to."

This was Ye Xinxin, known as the Empress of Commerce, and she was also Ye Tian's Older Cousin.

She had been away managing her businesses when she heard that the Divine Emperor and the Sacred Lord of the Jade Pool had borne a child. She had wanted to return and see her little cousin, but she had been too busy, bogged down by work, and had only managed to come back now.

Unexpectedly, on her way home, someone from the Ye Family had sent her a letter describing the peerless talent and various extraordinary feats displayed by Ye Tian, a baby born only a few days earlier.

This had greatly piqued Ye Xinxin's interest. He clearly possessed a mortal physique, yet he could still shake the world like this.

She then checked the gift she had prepared for him in her Spatial Ring and felt quite satisfied.

"I heard my little cousin is in Linglong's bedchamber. I'll go pay them a visit."

As Ye Xinxin thought this, the flying ship sped toward Ye Linglong's treasure island.

The Eternal Ye Family's grounds were immense, equivalent to a small world.

Two hours later.

Ye Linglong was holding Ye Tian, playing with the baby.

Suddenly, she sensed an extraordinarily terrifying aura, vast and surging like waves on a raging sea.

Holding Ye Tian, Ye Linglong flashed outside the palace.

Her eyes flickered when she saw Ye Xinxin's flying ship. She clearly recognized it as Ye Xinxin's vessel.

"Linglong, long time no see."

"The baby in your arms must be our little brother, Ye Tian."

Her voice arrived before she appeared.

Then Ye Xinxin jumped down from the flying ship.

"Haha, my dear little sister! I missed you to death!"

Ye Xinxin wanted to give Ye Linglong a great big hug, but she was forced to stop when she saw Ye Tian.

"Come, let me have a look at my adorable little brother!"

Ye Tian was speechless. Next would be the familiar cheek-pinching routine, wouldn't it?

Ye Tian thought, Go on, then. Get the pinching over with quickly and spare me the suffering.

But after he closed his eyes and waited for quite some time, the familiar cheek-pinching never came.

Puzzled, Ye Tian was about to open his eyes and take a look when he suddenly felt a chill down below.

"Good, good. Confirmed—it's a boy."

He had never expected his Older Cousin, Ye Xinxin... to be this sort of person.

Tears seemed ready to well up in Ye Tian's bright, glistening eyes.

His innocence! His little brother!

He hadn't even seen it himself yet.

Ye Tian wanted to protest, waving his chubby little hands, but all he could produce were cries of "Wah, wah, wah!"

"This child is so adorable! Such an adorable little brother, and he's also a sword genius the likes of which has never appeared across the ages. He's even hailed as the hope of the Immortal Domain's alchemy world!"

"But his physique is very ordinary. It's merely a mortal physique."

Ye Xinxin looked at Ye Tian as though he were a rare treasure, rubbing his head and stroking his little legs, as if she had never seen a baby before.

Ye Tian's eyes filled with tears. It was agonizing to be "tormented" like this in an infant's body.

Once he grew up, he would definitely restore his masculine glory—no, reclaim his dignity.

"Let's get down to business."

"I also heard about our little brother learning a peerless sword art at a glance and then executing it."

"As it happens, I was pressed for time and didn't prepare any grand gift, so I just picked up a sword."

With that, Ye Xinxin took it out of her Spatial Ring.

A sharp sword appeared, its sword light flashing with a brilliance that shook the ancient past and dazzled the present. Radiance blazed in every direction, and an exceptionally dense aura of imperial might enveloped it.

It was like the divine sword of an unrivaled emperor, cleaving space and disregarding all obstacles.

The entire blade shone with golden light, as though forged from sacred gold. A golden dragon design was engraved on its hilt, and it radiated an immensely powerful pressure.

"This... the Heavenly Emperor Sword!"

"It's actually the renowned Heavenly Emperor Sword! According to legend, it was the personal divine weapon forged by the ancient Heavenly Sovereign, unrivaled in slaughter!"

"Isn't this gift a little too precious?!"

Ye Linglong exclaimed in amazement. Before such a divine weapon, even the Ye Sword God would lose his composure.

If the Heavenly Emperor Sword appeared in the outside world, it would unleash a storm of blood. Even long-lived families and supreme sacred lands would make their move, paying an enormous price to seize it.

And now... she was simply giving it to Ye Tian just like that???

In Ye Linglong's arms, Ye Tian heard that his Older Cousin, Ye Xinxin, was giving him a divine sword and thought, Oh no!

Sure enough, the system's voice rang out in his mind.

"Ding, ding, ding! System program malfunction."

"Ding, ding, ding! The host's Older Cousin possesses wealth that eclipses the world and has gifted the host the Heavenly Emperor Sword!"

"Ding, ding, ding! The system has decided to reward the host. Reward: Divine Sword Casket!"

"Divine Sword Casket: Contains five great divine swords, including the Heavenly Emperor Sword, Heavenly God Sword, Celestial Emperor Sword, Heavenly Demon Sword, and Heavenly Devil Sword! (Due to their excessively high quality and the host's insufficient strength, the host may only use them at the corresponding quality level.)"
