Fantasy: Giving birth but not raising? Why are you crying when I become the Immortal Emperor?

"I've heard that a few days ago, Your Excellency sent someone to Bloodflow City to handle some matters..."

Ye Tian observed the magistrate's reaction.

Is this true?

Upon hearing this, the magistrate immediately smiled and said:
"Young Master Shi is indeed well-informed. It is true, but it is nothing important; it's just some routine business."

Ye Tian's heart skipped a beat; it seemed the county magistrate wasn't telling the truth.

"My lord, I have come across an official robe by chance,"

He took the official robe out of his storage ring.

"Does Your Excellency recognize him?"

The magistrate's expression changed when he saw the official robe.

He immediately took the official robe and examined it carefully.

"This official robe... does not seem to be from this county."

He handed the official robe back to Ye Tian and said in a low voice, "Young Master Shi, please come with me for a chat."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian already understood the magistrate's meaning.

So he went with him.

Ye Tian followed the county magistrate into a secret room.

The secret room was not large, and the walls were covered with complex runes that emitted spiritual energy fluctuations.

"Young Master Shi, please have a seat."

The magistrate gestured for Ye Tian to sit down, while he himself took a seat on another stone bench.

Ye Tian sat cross-legged, quietly waiting for the magistrate to speak.

The magistrate waved his hand, setting up a barrier around the secret room.

"Young Master Shi, you must be quite curious about the origin of this official robe, right?"

The magistrate's gaze fell on the official robe on the stone table.

Ye Tian nodded without saying a word.

"To be honest, the owner of this official robe is not me, but my predecessor."

The magistrate's tone became serious.

"Liu Yuan... he didn't die in an accident, but was killed by a mysterious organization."

A look of grief flashed in the magistrate's eyes.

"And this organization is hidden in the Holy Blood Minor Boundary."

Ye Tian's doubts deepened, and he pressed on, "Does Your Excellency know the name and purpose of this organization?"

The magistrate shook his head:
"This organization operates with extreme secrecy. To this day, I have not been able to find out their background. I only know that they seem to be plotting something."

After some thought, the magistrate decided to speak:
"Liu Yuan left some clues before his death, pointing to an organization called 'Liu Xue'."

Ye Tian's heart skipped a beat. So Liu Xue was the name of the organization?

"Does Your Excellency have any more information about Liu Xue?"

Ye Tian pressed for an answer.

The magistrate sighed:

"There is very little information about Liu Xue. I only know that they act mysteriously, are cruel, and seem to have some kind of connection with the Holy Blood Realm Main Realm."

"The Holy Blood Realm Main Realm?"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

"This Liu Xue is indeed no ordinary person."

"Young Master Shi, since you obtained Liu Yuan's official robe, you must be involved in this matter."

The magistrate looked at Ye Tian.

What are your plans next?

Ye Tian pondered for a moment and said:
"My lord, I am willing to assist you in investigating this matter, finding the real culprit who killed Lord Liu Yuan, and destroying the Liu Xue organization."

The magistrate was overjoyed upon hearing this:

"Excellent! With your help, young hero, I am confident I can capture Liu Xue in one fell swoop!"

He stood up, walked up to Ye Tian, ​​and bowed respectfully.

"Thank you for your chivalrous help, young hero!"

Ye Tian quickly stood up and returned the greeting: "Sir, there's no need to be so polite. This is simply the duty of us cultivators."

Only after hearing Ye Tian's agreement did the magistrate reveal his true purpose.

"Coincidentally, my daughter has recently been targeted by the Willow Blood Organization."

Ye Tian frowned, his doubts deepening.

"The target of the Willow Blood Organization is actually your daughter?"

The magistrate nodded, his expression grave:

"My daughter's name is Liu Yiyi. A few days ago, when she went out for a trip, she was almost captured by people from the Liu Xue organization. Fortunately, I arrived in time and saved her."

"My lord, I understand." "I will do everything in my power to protect Miss Liu's safety."

Ye Tian immediately made a promise to the county magistrate.

The magistrate looked at Ye Tian gratefully: "Thank you very much, young hero! With your help, my daughter will surely be safe and sound."

"My lord, you're welcome."

Ye Tian cupped his hands in greeting.
"Where is Miss Liu now? Please allow me to go and see her."

The magistrate nodded: "My daughter is in the manor now, young hero, please follow me."

After saying this, the magistrate got up and led Ye Tian out of the secret room, heading deeper into the mansion.

"Yiyi, this is Young Hero Shi Chen. He will stay in the manor from today onwards to protect your safety."

The magistrate walked to the girl's side and said softly.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi raised her head and looked at Ye Tian.

"Yiyi greets Young Hero Shichen."

Liu Yiyi stood up and bowed to Ye Tian.

"Miss Liu, there's no need for such formalities."

Ye Tian returned the greeting with a cupped hand.

"Young Master Shi Chen, I'm entrusting my daughter to you."

The magistrate patted Ye Tian on the shoulder and said earnestly.

"Rest assured, sir, I will definitely protect Miss Liu."

Ye Tian solemnly promised.

The magistrate nodded, then turned and left.
"Young Master Shi Chen, please have a seat."

Ye Tian sat down on the stone bench, facing Liu Yiyi.

“Young Master Shi Chen, I heard from my father that you are exceptionally strong, and even the leader of the Blood Chasing Gang, Zhui Ning Kuang, is no match for you.”

Ye Tian smiled and said modestly, "Miss Liu, you flatter me. I only know a little bit of tricks."

"Miss Liu, could you please tell me why the Liu Blood Organization is targeting you?"

Liu Yiyi thought for a moment and said, "I'm not quite sure either. Maybe...maybe it's because of my father."

“My father had some conflicts with the Willow Blood Organization before, perhaps... they want to take revenge on my father.”

She added.

"It seems that the Willow Blood Organization has a deep-seated grudge with the county magistrate."

Ye Tian thought to himself.

He then asked, "Miss Liu, do you remember what the person who attacked you looked like that day?"

Liu Yiyi pondered for a moment, then recalled:
“They were all wearing black cloaks, so I couldn’t see their faces, but… I could sense that they were all highly skilled. Among them… there was one person whose aura was particularly strong. I… I didn’t even dare to look him in the eye.”

Upon hearing her words, Ye Tian thought to himself, "Well, wasn't this a pointless question?"

He could only comfort her, saying, "Miss Liu, don't worry, I will protect your safety."

"Miss Liu, please try not to go out alone recently."

"I will send someone to protect you secretly. If you discover anything unusual, notify me immediately."

Ye Tian said to Liu Yiyi.

"I understand, thank you, Young Hero Shi Chen."

Liu Yiyi responded obediently.

Seeing this, Ye Tian nodded, turned around and left the room.

He immediately sent a telepathic message to Ye Ying.

"Go and protect Liu Yiyi in secret."

"Great brother!"

Having said that, it transformed into a blood-red shadow and merged into Liu Yiyi's shadow.

After leaving Liu Yiyi's room, Ye Tian went to the courtyard alone.

He looked up at the sky, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

"Liu Xue, Liu Yuan, Liu Yiyi... what is the connection between these three?"

He muttered to himself, his brow furrowed.

"It seems I need to speed up the investigation."

He had already made up his mind.

He turned and walked toward the magistrate's study, preparing to discuss the next steps with the magistrate.

Ye Tian gently knocked on the study door.

"Sir, are you there?"

"Come in." (End of Chapter)
