"Huh? Eighth Sister, why do you ask that?"

Ye Fan stared at Shen Murong.

Their eyes met!

Shen Murong said with a serious expression, "If you, Xiaofan, have no intention of fighting for supremacy, then we sisters will guard the borders and protect the Great Xia, serving as your strongest shield!"

"If Xiaofan aspires to rule the world, we sisters will be the sharpest sword in your hand, clearing away all obstacles for you!"

Ye Fan was deeply moved.

No wonder he was able to be a playboy for over twenty years in his past life, with his ten older sisters bearing the burden for him!

If it weren't for Qin Feng's forged secret letter of rebellion, Eighth Sister wouldn't have been stripped of her military power, nor would she have died a tragic death!

"Eighth Sister, you're so good to me!"

Ye Fan sighed, "It's a pity you're my own sister, otherwise, I really would like to marry you!"

"Now that I'm all grown up, it's my turn to protect you!"

"Oh? Hehe~"

A flicker of interest flashed deep within Shen Murong's beautiful eyes: "It's a deal!"

Ye Fan assumed Shen Murong was referring to protecting her, and patted his chest confidently: "Don't worry, I've got a cheat code!"

Shen Murong looked puzzled: "Xiao Fan, what did you say? I don't understand."

"fine."

Ye Fan smiled and shook his head: "However, I really don't want to be emperor!"

Shen Murong looked at him: "Oh? You don't want the power of being second only to the emperor?"

Ye Fan shrugged: "Being an emperor is so tiring, isn't it? You're imprisoned in the palace your whole life."

"If it really comes to that, wouldn't it be better to support an emperor and control things from behind the scenes?"

Eighth Sister looked up in shock, as if she didn't recognize Ye Fan!

……

Meanwhile, deep within a luxurious mansion in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The Prime Minister of the Great Xia Dynasty, Wang Guozhong, arrived outside a room and knocked on the door seven times. The door opened with a creak.

Two stunningly beautiful young women pushed open the door, using sign language. They were deaf and mute, unable to speak or hear, and illiterate, but they could keep all the secrets!

Wang Guozhong made a hand gesture.

Two deaf-mute girls made way for them.

Wang Guozhong entered and knelt on one knee before a screen: "Your Highness! The Emperor is furious; Li Chengqian has been deposed!"

"Ye Fan escaped unscathed, and Shen Murong has returned to Longdu!"

A soft, feminine voice came from behind the screen: "I already know!"

Wang Guozhong was secretly astonished. He had left the palace immediately and come straight here. Did His Highness know everything in advance? Could it be that His Majesty also has His Highness's people by his side?

"Shen Murong returned in a great hurry, riding a Lightning Falcon; she came back alone!"

"What does Your Highness mean?"

"If I kill her now, no one will suspect me!"

Wang Guozhong gasped, "Kill the General of the North in Longdu? Wouldn't that cause too much of a stir!"

His Highness smiled: "What if the Prince of Zhenbei dies too?"

Wang Guozhong's eyes narrowed, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. He immediately said, "I'll arrange for someone to go right away!"

"No need! Feng Qingyang has already set off and should be arriving soon."

……

The carriage stopped at the main gate of the Duke's mansion.

The heads of Xu Fu's family of over 300 people have been disposed of, and the bloodstains on the ground have been washed away with water.

Ye Fan jumped out of the car and extended a hand: "Eighth Sister, let me help you out of the car!"

Shen Murong covered his mouth and chuckled, "You! Have you forgotten I'm a sixth-tier Martial Spirit?"

Despite saying that, she still had one hand on Ye Fan's wrist, helping her as she was about to jump off the carriage!

Suddenly, Shen Murong's pretty face changed abruptly: "Xiao Fan! You can cultivate martial arts..."

Ye Fan nodded: "Yes!"

"what!"

Shen Murong covered her mouth with one hand while gripping Ye Fan's wrist tightly with the other. She could clearly sense that Ye Fan's pulse was very strong; her little brother was not only skilled in martial arts, but was at least a fifth or sixth-level martial artist.

"When did this happen?"

Shen Murong's body trembled, and the excitement in her beautiful eyes was impossible to hide.

This news is arguably the best news she's heard in twenty years.

"In the next couple of days."

Ye Fan smiled.

"Okay! Okay!" Shen Mu still held Ye Fan's hand.

"Eighth Sister, you're hurting me," Ye Fan said.

"Hehehe~"

Shen Murong then released his grip, wrapped his arms around Ye Fan's waist, picked him up, and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.

"Remember! Don't tell anyone about this for now!"

"good!"

Ye Fan naturally knew that once people found out he could cultivate martial arts, many would probably be restless.

"You two siblings, one is the Prince of Zhenbei, and the other is the General of Zhenbei. What kind of behavior is this, hugging and embracing in the street?" Looking in the direction of the voice.

A Taoist nun dressed in a gauze robe stood inside the gate of the Duke's mansion.

"Ninth Madam!"

Wang Danian and others greeted each other with clasped hands.

This person is none other than Eighth Sister's biological mother, Ye Fan's Ninth Aunt, Shen Hong.

Ye Fan's mother died shortly after his birth, and his father, Ye Zhengrong, took nine concubines in quick succession. After Ye Zhengrong died in battle in the Northern Border ten years ago, Ye Fan was left unsupervised and became a complete good-for-nothing wastrel.

As Ye Fan grew up, his nine concubines avoided any appearance of impropriety.

Some sought refuge with their daughters.

Some moved out of the Duke's mansion but stayed in the capital of Daxia to start their own businesses.

After Shen Murong inherited the position of General of the North, Shen Hong worried that she had killed too many people, so she moved into a temple and chanted scriptures every day, hoping to do good deeds for her daughter.

"mother!"

Shen Murong ran over and threw himself into Shen Hong's arms.

"You're a general now, and you're still so shameless? Aren't you afraid someone will see you?"

Shen Hong has fair skin and a voluptuous figure. Even when she is wearing a gauze dress, she gives people a sense of sacredness and inviolability!

"Hmph! So what? Who dares to say anything to me?"

"I just can't do anything with you! The food is all ready, let's eat."

The table was laden with all of Shen Murong's favorite dishes and pastries.

Hua Nongyu and Hua Nongyue came over to serve: "Young master, please have some appetizer soup first!"

As soon as Ye Fan took the soup bowl, Shen Hong's expression suddenly changed. She reached out and grabbed Ye Fan's shoulder, pulling him sharply into her arms, causing him to crash directly into her soft chest!

laugh--!

A sword aura struck!

The precious huanghuali dining table was reduced to dust in an instant!

"A seventh-tier Martial King? How dare you come to the Duke's mansion to assassinate the Prince of Zhenbei!" Shen Hong shouted, drawing a soft sword from her waist.

Ye Fan turned around and saw a man dressed in black.

He held a sword inlaid with a magical beast's crystal core, and blue sword energy surged with each strike!

"Brothers, take it down!"

Wang Danian led dozens of armored soldiers out.

Shen Hong also joined the battle, together attacking the seventh-level Martial King!

"Master, watch out! Above you!"

Suddenly, the voice of the Chaos Cauldron echoed in Ye Fan's mind!

He subconsciously looked up and saw a loud bang as the roof of the hall was pierced by a sword. The person was also dressed in black night clothes and was carrying an extremely sharp sword, which was heading towards Ye Fan's head!

"Hey bro! Get out of the way!"

Shen Murong was shocked.

In a flash, he rushed in front of Ye Fan and shoved him aside!

She herself was exposed to this sword. Seeing this, the man did not continue to attack Ye Fan, but instead aimed his sword at Shen Murong's heart and pierced through it!
