Chapter 708: Chapter 709 Starry Sky Blue Phoenix

At that moment, everyone suddenly realized, and it probably was indeed so.

“This old father-in-law, your timely cry for help was correct, although it was a misunderstanding.” After regaining his composure, Ye Nanxin also turned around and spoke to the elderly man with a broad smile.

At the same time, Ye Nanxin spoke to those around him, “From now on, everyone should act just like today—once you spot any suspicious activities or witness any illegal acts, you must shout out loud for help. Then, the Imperial Army will come to assist.”

Ye Nanxin’s words made everyone nod in agreement.

Meanwhile, the woman watched her husband’s actions with surprise and a touch of awe.

She knew that in other forces, if such a situation occurred, the old father-in-law would probably be dead without a place to be buried. Now, her husband even praised the other party.

Although she also thought that the other party was not at fault, compared to the outside world, her husband’s way of handling matters was very special.

The woman then followed Ye Nanxin and left the place, returning to the old site of Ye Residence in Bashan City.

The old site of Ye Residence in Bashan City, where Ye Nanxin’s courtyard still existed, was sometimes inhabited by him, and thus it had been preserved.

After returning to the courtyard, the woman couldn’t help but ask her question, “Brother Ye, why did you just now…”

After listening to his wife’s question, Ye Nanxin chuckled and began to explain, “If you weren’t my wife, but came from the Void outside our realm, then the old man feeling something was wrong and calling for help, allowing the Imperial Army to investigate, don’t you think that would be beneficial for this local power?”

“Isn’t it good if any conspiracies or tricks are exposed before they take place?”

“Therefore, it’s best to let the misunderstanding earlier be just that. This way, any suspicious situations in the future can also be promptly detected, preventing issues before they occur.”

The woman heard this and nodded secretly, feeling it made a lot of sense.

At this moment, Ye Nanxin’s attention also returned to his wife, expressing his own confusion.

“Fenger, what exactly is going on here, I clearly…” Ye Nanxin looked at the woman in front of him and quietly asked, full of curiosity.

Standing before him was his deceased wife, Lan Fenger, whom he clearly saw die before his own eyes. Yet somehow, she had appeared before him perfectly fine.

However, Lan Fenger, faced with Ye Nanxin’s eyes, didn’t know how to start, “Actually, Brother Ye, it wasn’t my intention to hide this.”

“Previously, when I was traveling abroad, I was gravely injured and accidentally touched a transport Array, inexplicably arriving at the Soul Martial Continent. Then, I met you.”

“Later, something happened to my clan… I had to return, leaving only an avatar by your side. However, pressing emergencies at home prevented me from maintaining the avatar, causing it to lose control and perish as though it had died.”

At this point, Lan Fenger bit her teeth as if making some resolution, “Brother Ye, there’s something I need to tell you. Perhaps after this, you may disdain me…”

Lan Fenger’s expression turned sorrowful, finding it difficult to continue.

Ye Nanxin at that moment, also came to realize that his wife came from a potentially significant and powerful background, or else she wouldn’t have been able to conjure up an avatar.

And he also understood why his wife, who was supposedly dead, now appeared alive before him.

However, the difficulty his wife had in speaking gave Ye Nanxin a puzzled frown.

Lan Fenger hesitated, as she wasn’t part of the Human Clan. If she revealed her true identity, would he disdain her? After all, she knew that the Human Clan on the Soul Martial Continent, unlike those from the Void, were quite intolerant of other races.

If revealing her identity ruptured their feelings for each other…

Thinking this, Lan Fenger found herself unable to speak.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Just then, a knock on the courtyard gate came along with a voice, “Master Li, your delivery is here.”

“Delivery?” Hearing this novel term, Lan Fenger was puzzled but saw her husband walking nonchalantly towards the gate and opening it.

At that time, Lan Fenger realized that there was a strange race standing at the gate, tall and hoof-footed, dressed in black clothes, exuding a unique aura.

Behind the stranger was a backpack, which she recognized at a glance as a Storage Magical Treasure.

“You’re much faster than before, Little Li.” Upon seeing the visitor, Ye Nanxin smiled and stepped forward, taking a package from him and signing his name on the form that the other handed over.

Huaxia Shunfeng deliveryman Little Li waved a hand and said to Ye Nanxin, “Master Li, I’ve recently improved my Realm, so naturally, I’ve gotten much faster. Now, I am indeed a Diamond Level deliveryman.”

“Diamond Level deliveryman, you’ve moved up quickly,” Ye Nanxin marveled, knowing full well the stringent rules set by his son-in-law for the deliveryman promotion, which were incredibly strict. Advancing even a single level required not only meeting Realm criteria but also accuracy and safety in delivery among other meticulous considerations.

Little Li patted his chest, telling Ye Nanxin, “Just kidding, I aim to be the strongest champion-level deliveryman, Master Li, so long!”

“Yes, work hard, Little Li!” Ye Nanxin waved at him, closed the courtyard gate, and couldn’t wait to open the package, walking over to Lan Fenger, “Originally, this was meant as a gift for you. Little did I suspect, Fenger, that the ways of the world are unpredictable.”

As he finished speaking, Ye Nanxin held out a fiery red flower, “This is called a red rose. In the past, I bought a bunch every year, and unexpectedly, in this life, I got the chance to personally hand it to you.”

“The rose, such a beautiful flower.” Lan Fenger, receiving the bright red bouquet, felt deeply moved.

Meanwhile, Ye Nanxin was already considering calling someone to help dismantle the tomb of Lan Fenger outside the town.

Feeling touched, Lan Fenger felt somewhat surprised why a strange race would appear here, yet her husband was conversing pleasantly with him.

Holding the rose tightly, Lan Fenger made up her mind, looking at her husband Ye Nanxin in front and spoke earnestly, “Brother Ye, the truth is, I’m not from the Human Clan but belong to the Phoenix tribe, specifically, a Starry Sky Blue Phoenix.”
