The elders teased: the young master was a little lecher, and Yue Liuli had double standards!

Inside the Eternal Ye Family's main hall, everyone had watched what had just happened at the Ancestral Dragon Nest through a projection.

"Hahaha, the Great Elder and Second Elder are as domineering as ever."

"Especially the Second Elder. He's a fiend incarnate, striking at the slightest disagreement. Even the Ancestral Dragon Nest, a major branch of the Primordial Dragon Clan, had no choice but to yield."

"Still, even a warrior's iron bones can hide a tender heart. Don't forget how the Second Elder couldn't bear to put the Young Master down when he was born. If he hadn't been trying to preserve his tough-guy image, he would have kissed him a couple of times right there."

In the main hall, several branch elders and senior elders from the Heaven and Earth Pavilion, Alchemy Hall, and Qi Refinement Hall teased one another.

Ye Wanjun and Ye Wanjie were the Great Elder and Second Elder of the main lineage, second only to the family head, his wife, the supreme elders, and a few others. They held lofty positions and immense authority.

But they were unlike the venerable, highly respected elders of other Immortal Forces.

Both were savage gods of slaughter, infamous for their ferocity and brimming with battle intent that towered to the heavens.

Anyone who refused to submit would be crushed outright, their blood splattering on the spot.

Everyone was absolutely certain of that.

Had the Ancestral Dragon Nest refused to hand over the Primordial Dragon Egg, the two elders would undoubtedly have unleashed their might and seized it, without a care for anything else.

As long as it made their Young Master happy, what did it matter if they wiped out a few Immortal Forces?

Using the Cross-State Teleportation Array, the two soon returned to the Eternal Ye Family and headed straight for the main hall.

The instant the Great Elder and Second Elder stepped into the Ye Family's main hall, silence fell.

Everyone who had been joking earlier stopped talking and greeted them with utmost respect.

"Why are you all so stiff? Liven up!"

Seeing this, the Second Elder laughed, his voice booming like thunder, like the roar of a wild beast.

"Ah, what a shame. We didn't make it back before the Young Master's one-month celebration."

The Great Elder, Ye Wanjun, shook his head, regret written all over his face.

They only regretted not returning sooner and missing the Young Master's one-month celebration.

Otherwise, had they seen those rebellious forces and the remnants of the Blood Sea Forbidden Zone...

They would have slaughtered them until heaven and earth darkened and the sun and moon lost their light.

Daring to attack the Young Master was like an old god of longevity hanging himself—they must have been tired of living.

"It's all right. You two elders traveled so far and even ventured deep into the Ancestral Dragon Nest to 'borrow' a Primordial Dragon Egg for Tian'er's mount."

"You've already rendered great service through your hard work."

Ye Junlin smiled faintly. With a flick of his little finger, he sent two cups of warm wine before the elders.

"Come, on Tian'er's behalf, I, Ye Junlin, thank you both and offer you a toast."

The Great Elder and Second Elder dared not delay. They quickly lifted the warm wine and drained their cups.

The wine was fragrant, mellow, and refreshingly clear, with an exquisite flavor that made them feel as though they were floating toward immortality.

"We have lived up to your expectations, family head!"

"We successfully obtained the Ancestral Dragon Nest's Primordial Dragon Egg!"

"Since we missed the one-month celebration, let this Primordial Dragon Egg be our gift for it."

The Great Elder laughed heartily, and the other elders gathered around.

Ye Junlin and Yue Liuli exchanged a glance, then approached Ye Wanjun with Ye Tian in her arms.

Under everyone's gaze, Ye Wanjun slowly brought out the Primordial Dragon Egg they had seized from the Ancestral Dragon Nest.

Runes were engraved upon it, and its shell was as translucent as crystal, radiating waves of light. Five-colored divine radiance swirled around it as though guarding a sovereign.

The moment the Primordial Dragon Egg appeared, the bloodline within Huang Ruoxi, Ye Tian's personal maid standing beside Yue Liuli, thrummed as though sensing an utterly terrifying presence.

Huang Ruoxi's pupils trembled, and shock filled her heart.

She possessed exceptionally pure phoenix true blood.

Even through its shell, before it had been born, it could make her phoenix true blood boil. Could the peerless dragon child nurtured within this egg truly be so terrifying?

Anticipation also stirred within Huang Ruoxi. She wanted to see it for herself.

"Hehe, Young Master, this is a mount I went to great lengths to find for you."

"Asking for a little kiss isn't too much, is it?"

The Second Elder's iron-blooded demeanor softened as he grinned at Ye Tian and stroked his chubby little cheek.

"Hmph, if he's kissing anyone, he should kiss me first!"

"Don't forget that I'm the foremost elder of the Ye Family."

The Great Elder, Ye Wanjun, objected, nudging Ye Wanjie aside and moving in front of Ye Tian.

The more he looked at Ye Tian, who embodied nature's finest beauty and was as adorable as an immortal spirit, the fonder he grew.

The other elders also wanted to come forward and play with Ye Tian, but the Great Elder and Second Elder had surrounded him, leaving them no chance to approach.

They settled for peering through the gaps, discovering that their Young Master naturally exuded an aura of immortal spirit and chaos and was utterly adorable.

Ye Tian's large eyes sparkled with pure innocence. Inwardly, he was deeply grateful to the two elders for finding him a Primordial Dragon Egg, so that its future peerless dragon child could serve as his mount.

But looking at the Great Elder's and Second Elder's aged faces, he shrank back. He simply couldn't bring himself to kiss them.

Yet the two elders refused to relent and continued coaxing him.

Ye Tian lamented inwardly, Boohoo, how cruel! I really can't bring myself to kiss them.

Then his bright, watery eyes flashed. He turned his head and gently waved both hands toward Huang Ruoxi, as though asking her to hold him.

"Ah, this child. He's only just turned a month old, and he's already a little lecher."

Helpless, Yue Liuli placed Ye Tian in Huang Ruoxi's arms.

Huang Ruoxi had skin like creamy jade, slender crimson lips, and gleaming pearly teeth. Her figure was graceful and slender, her legs long, and her crimson hair cascaded over her shoulders.

Her curves were enchantingly voluptuous, like those of a temptress, with two proud peaks rising high.

Once in her arms, Ye Tian rubbed his head against Huang Ruoxi's magnificent peaks, then buried himself between them.

He thought to himself, As expected of the Ancient Kingdom's Eldest Princess. She really does have impressive assets!

Seeing the Young Master behave this way, Huang Ruoxi's pretty face flushed and burned. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in.

But then she reasoned that the Young Master was only a month-old baby. He must have felt shy after being surrounded by so many elders, and that was why he wanted to bury his head.

So she gently patted Ye Tian, as though soothing a baby to sleep.

Ye Junlin shook his head with a smile at the sight.

His son had inherited his peerless good looks, but not his devotion to one woman.

He was only a month old, yet at such a tender age, he was already so... well, wild and unrestrained.

Yue Liuli, however, didn't mind at all. Instead, she smiled tenderly, growing ever more delighted, and said to Ye Junlin, "Husband, Tian'er really does have excellent comprehension. When he grows up, he can marry several holy maidens and divine maidens and give our branch plenty of new leaves and branches."

Ye Junlin was speechless. His wife truly had double standards.

When it came to her husband, she demanded that he never take a second wife and love her with all his heart.

But her son simply had to have three wives, four concubines, and an entire harem, all under the lofty pretext of spreading their branches and leaves to strengthen their lineage.

Ye Junlin very much wanted to say, Actually, I could contribute to strengthening our branch too.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the courage.

As everyone laughed and joked, the seized Primordial Dragon Egg suddenly began to tremble. Divine radiance blazed from it, dazzling colors flashed, and it caused an enormous commotion.
