Chapter 700 - 700 Patriarch Ye
'A man with no spirit root or cultivation?' Patriarch Ye judged inside.
He could not feel anything special about our bored gamer using his spiritual sense and so he was very disappointed to note this fact.
He had been alive in this world for more than 300 years and thus it was not hard for him to deduce why his daughter had come back at this time.
"Is he your lover, Xin'er?" Patriarch Ye broke the happy reunion.
"Yes, father. I want you to meet Brother Bu Fang. I came back to get married here." Ye Xinxia smiled and looked at our good gamer with love in her eyes.
"BANG!" The floors crumbled at the feet of Patriarch Ye. It did not need telling that he did not like what he heard at all. One should know how much he nurtured his daughter from young.
He could not accept that Ye Xinxia would just fall unto somebody worthless in the ways of cultivation.
"Brother Bu Fang is very strong, father. His cultivation base is just too high for us to see." Ye Xinxia said to appease the anger in her father's heart.
How could she not see that Patriarch Ye thought that our bored gamer was nothing but an evil hooligan who cheated her out of her maidenhood. Ye Xinxia knew her father so well indeed.
"Really?" Patriarch Ye was surprised. Within moments, the disappointment and fury he felt immediately disappeared. His daughter would never lie to him about something this important.
"HAHAHA! And here I thought that you were just the son of a rich and influential elder in the Profound Delight Sect. You must forgive me, son in law!" Patriarch Ye cupped his fist in shame.
With his cultivation base of 3rd Stage of Core Heart Realm and yet he could not determine how powerful our good gamer was, Patriarch Ye could only assume that his soon to be son in law was at least in the 5th Stage of Core Heart Realm.
"There is no need for any apology, father in law."
"After all, we will become one family later on." Clark said to Patriarch Ye.
"My Xin'er has really found me a good son in law. Come, come." Patriarch Ye beckoned and the grin on his face was indeed priceless to look at.
Ye Xinxia had never seen her father this happy before. They got inside and a feast happened thereafter.
There was an abundance of food and drinks and the talks began to flow amidst the celebration. Ye Xinxia has particularly chronicled the previous achievements of our very own protagonist.
"Brother Bu Fang is the only Legacy Disciple of the Profound Delight Sect, father."
"He's even stronger than the current Sect Master! Brother Bu Fang is really the best!"
"Sister Mu Ningxue has risen to the 10th Stage of Innate Realm from an untrained mortal in less than 7 months! And this is all due to Brother Bu Fang's secret technique. Hihihi!"
"Your daughter is also already in the 10th Stage of Innate Realm!" Ye Xinxia was the life of the party as everyone indulged her every word to the fullest.
The elders of the Ye clan were present and same with Ye Xinxia's half brothers and sisters. Most of the latter certainly did not want to be there.
"Are you really stronger than the sect master of Profound Delight Sect, Fang'er?" Patriarch Ye asked after a time.
He has gotten much closer to our bored gamer at this late night and accepted this great son in law completely.
"It is only a minor accomplishment, father in law." Our bored gamer answered honestly. He did not consider this truth a secret worth keeping at all.
"..." Alas, the same could not be said to Patriarch Ye. The Patriarch was speechless on his seat. What kind of existence was the Sect Master of the Profound Delight Sect?
Ren Zemin was already in the Dao Soul Realm. She was someone who Patriarch Ye could only look up to for life. A person he could only think about and not see nor feel.
Thus, to say that our avid gamer was much stronger than Sect Master Ren Zemin was absolutely unbelievable!
"HAHAHA! My son in law is truly a dragon amongst men! Let this old man learn a trick or two from your hands, Fang'er."
Patriarch Ye offered a challenge since he wanted to verify the words of our bored gamer.
Being a Dao Soul Realm or higher at the young age of less than 20 was something that he could not accept.
"If that is your wish, father in law. You can begin at any time." Clark smiled.
"DING!" Patriarch Ye wanted to laugh and stand at the same time but alas, he did not succeed in doing either of those things.
'What's wrong with me?!' Patriarch Ye could only shout inside. He could not move his body at all nor use any techniques in his arsenal. It seemed like time seemed to freeze around him.
If this was a real life and death battle, Patriarch Ye was akin to a sitting duck for slaughter.
"Show him who's boss, Patriarch!"
"Go and give us a good show!"
"Start the duel please!"
.
..
...
One could not imagine how many cheers could be heard in the short span of a minute. But all of these were left unanswered by Patriarch Ye.
"I... lost." Patriarch Ye said after 60 breaths had elapsed. This made the elders and the rest of the guests stunned in their places.
They could not believe that Patriarch Ye would concede even before the official battle started.
Luckily enough, some of the old wise men in the celebration halls gathered some clues behind the Patriarch's words.
In the end, they could only refresh their views and appreciate our bored gamer more than before.
"HAHAHA! I LOST!" Patriarch Ye said again but this time, there was much mirth to this declaration. Gone was his dispirited attitude as he looked at Clark with a burning gaze of awe.
"I will take this drink for my defeat, son in law!" Patriarch Ye raised a whole jar of wine and drank it to the last drop. The feast lasted well beyond the kiss of midnight.
