Chapter 318 Bad Premonition
Mick's mind went blank upon hearing his grandfather's words.
The Dark Council, The Holy See, these two colossal entities were absolute titans that stood on the Western Continent, spanning across a millennia, without anyone or any power daring to provoke their existence.
Yet today, he heard from his grandfather such an alarming thing—was the Dark Council almost annihilated?
The Holy See had been half-destroyed by Ye Ling?
What kind of joke was this? Were they shooting a movie? This was completely unscientific, okay? If someone else told him that the detestable Huaxia brat had crippled The Holy See and the Dark Council, he would've laughed out loud before slapping that idiot to death.
"So, my child, for the sake of the family, you must make sacrifices," the old man said with a slight smile, then turned and walked away.
Mick's face turned ashen. It was over; he was completely finished, which was akin to being excluded from the family's core.
The family's dividends, the delightful taste of power, all would slip through Mick's fingers. More importantly, Mick had offended too many people.
Before, no one dared touch him because of the Locke Clan's face, but once he was exiled to South Africa, his fate would be cruel.
And all of this was caused by that Huaxia brat, who was the principal culprit of his miserable destiny.
But Mick dared not entertain the thought of madly retaliating. Hell, that guy had left those two major powers in such a wretched state—him, seek vengeance?
Stop joking. Forget about Ye Ling; even the grandfather who had just left would take his cane and break his legs.
All the while, the chief culprit, Ye Ling, had absolutely no idea; he was still lying comfortably on a big bed, enjoying the company of a tender beauty.
As night fell, Steward Manor was bustling with excitement, as they welcomed Alice with a celebration: roasted meat, fine wine, but the welcoming party comprised only the four of them, along with a few servants attending them.
"Tsk, why do I have a bad feeling about this? My eyelids have been twitching for quite a while," Ye Ling muttered, lying on a chair with a grim expression.
You know, a cultivator's sixth sense is very strong; many powerful cultivators have escaped death countless times thanks to their keen sixth sense.
So Ye Ling did not doubt whether he was overthinking it: "But with my strength now, even those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage couldn't possibly threaten my life."
"Could there be someone beyond the Tribulation Transcending experts here? That seems unlikely; such experts are almost fairy-like beings, and there probably aren't many on Earth, right?"
Ye Ling mumbled, "Whatever, let water come as soil to cover, and soldiers to block if warriors come."
After speaking, Ye Ling stood up and walked over to Alice, who looked like a Fairy descending from the heavens in her white dress, and gently held her, leaning his head against her hair.
"Hmm, you smell so good." Ye Ling sniffed and chuckled, then patted Alice's belly.
"Tsk, my little baby, be good in mommy's belly, don't cause any trouble, or daddy will spank you," Ye Ling said softly with a smile.
Alice too was smiling, "You, what nonsense are you talking? The baby can't hear you now, and besides, if you dare to hit them, I'll fight you."
"Ah! What's with the lack of respect for family rules? Are you planning a rebellion?" Ye Ling shouted, his hand gently pinching Alice's rear.
Ai Lu and Ruth also laughed and approached, "Darling, when the baby is born, you won't have the heart to hit them."
"Anyway, let's not talk about that for now. In the next few days, I'll be returning to my country. You two should also wrap up things at home, then come back to Huaxia with me," Ye Ling said seriously. He'd already got his hands on the confidential files, and it was time to return, especially since a group of wives were waiting at home.
At this point, Ai Lu and Ruth suddenly showed a troubled expression on their faces, especially Ai Lu.
"Ye Ling, I'm afraid it won't work for me to go with you. Not to mention other things, even my grandfather wouldn't agree."
"I'm still in charge of many of our family's businesses. If I leave, they'll fall into disarray, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go with you this time."
"Just wait a bit, give me some time to hand over these businesses to the right people. Once that's done, I'll come to Huaxia to find you."
Ai Lu spoke with a serious face. She was almost certainly the designated heir of the Ross Clan. For Ai Lu, no matter what the reason, she wouldn't stay in Huaxia forever.
Ye Ling nodded, "Alright then. But come to Huaxia to find me when you're free, otherwise, if I start missing our empress, I might just go crazy."
With that, Ye Ling hugged Ai Lu and gently kissed her forehead.
"What about you, Ruth? Are you coming back with me?" Ye Ling asked Ruth.
Ruth also shook her head, "Darling, I'm afraid I can't go back with you either. How about this, when I have time, I'll go to Huaxia with Ai Lu to find you."
Ye Ling smacked his lips, "Fine, leaving two gorgeous women in Mi Country really doesn't sit well with me. If someone seduces you one day, I'll probably want to die."
"What are you talking about, darling? Don't you trust us that much?" Ruth said, tilting her head up.
Ye Ling pulled a face, looking at Ruth and Ai Lu, "Tsk, tsk, I'm telling you, I really don't trust it. With the craziness you two show in bed, if you really felt like 'doing that something,' do you think you could resist?" Explore stories at empire
"I bet you'd definitely make me a cuckold. Ah spit, why does my fate have to be this miserable!"
Both Ruth and Ai Lu, gnashing their teeth, swung at Ye Ling, who yelled and quickly fled, with the two women hot on his heels.
Alice watched the three of them tussling, and she couldn't help but laugh. This guy really never acts proper.
At night, beneath a sky dotted with stars, a figure dashed out frantically from the Sterr Family manor, vanishing into the vast night.
Meanwhile, Ye Ling was buried in hard work on the bed, with two creamy white bodies rolling around, thrilling beyond words.
"Ye Ling! I want a baby too!" Ai Lu said with yearning.
Ruth, at her side, nodded vigorously, "Yes! You can't show partiality! I want a baby too!"
Ye Ling was suddenly speechless, "Come on! Do you two think I'm a breeding pig? Quit joking. It's not up to me to decide, it depends on the 'soil' whether fruits will grow or not."
"Of course, the 'seed' is very important too. Trust me, my 'seed' is of the highest quality, guaranteed exceptional, and with no bad seeds at all!"
Ye Ling chuckled and pounced, followed by a symphony of soft cries.
The next morning when Ye Ling got up, still bleary-eyed, Ruth arrived in a panic, with a grave look on her face.
"Darling, something's gone wrong!"
Ye Ling's heart skipped a beat, "What happened? Tell me slowly."
Ruth nodded, then recounted the whole situation to Ye Ling in detail.
