675- Ouyang Family Clan_ 1

The Blood Moon Elder peeked his head out without waiting for Ye Qingtang say anything. Once Ouyang Qian's face appeared, the few guards immediately let them pass.

The Ouyang family clan's influence in Nine Nights Dynasty was extraordinary, and the guards at the monarch city naturally recognized the Young Miss of the Ouyang family clan. It was, however, that they found it strange: since when would Ouyang family clan's Young Miss sit in such a plain carriage?

As the carriage entered the monarch city successfully, Ye Qingtang glanced at the scenery in the city. Seeing that they were about to reach the main door of the Ouyang family clan, she suddenly turned to look at the Blood Moon Elder.

"Do you remember everything I said about Ouyang Qian and the Ouyang family clan?"

"Rest assured, Holy Lady. I remember them clearly." The Blood Moon Elder nodded, knowing the seriousness of the matter.

The Ouyang family clan was the number one family clan in Nine Nights Dynasty, and its heritage was not what original family clans could compare to.

The Blood Moon Elder stole Ouyang Qian's body currently, and if he accidentally let slip anything, the Ouyang family clan would skin him alive.

"Ouyang Qian behaves bossily, and the only person she is slightly obedient to is her father, who is Ouyang family clan's Family Clan Master, Ouyang Jian. As long as you remember what I said previously clearly, there should not be any problems." Ye Qingtang warned.

"Noted," the Blood Moon Elder said and nodded.

Wasn't it just a bossy Young Miss?

How difficult was that?

As they spoke, the carriage had already reached the main door of Ouyang family clan.

When the few guards standing at the Ouyang family clan door saw a simple carriage stopping before them, they frowned immediately and walked up.

"This is Ouyang family clan's territory. Miscellaneous people are not to stay..."

Before waiting for the guard to finish speaking, a loud shout suddenly traveled out from the carriage.

"How dare you! Who gave you the audacity to stop my carriage?"

The moment that sound came out, the Ouyang family clan guards were stunned. They were more than familiar with this voice. Didn't it belong to their Young Miss, Ouyang Qian?

As the guards were taken aback, the Blood Moon Elder who was in Ouyang Qian's skin walked out of the carriage with arrogance and impatience written all over her exquisite face.

"A group of good-for-nothings. Don't you all recognize me already!" The Blood Moon Elder shouted coldly with a frown.

"Greetings, Young Miss!" The group of guards bowed hurriedly as they broke out in a cold sweat. How would they have thought that their distinguished Young Miss would actually sit in such an old carriage?

Ye Qingtang secretly raised her brows as she watched the Blood Moon Elder's arrogant attitude.

It seems that the Blood Moon Elder had adapted to his new identity pretty well... That bossiness is quite on point.

"Hmph." The Blood Moon Sect Elder lifted his chin arrogantly. At least he was an elder of Blood Moon Sect a thousand years ago. This mighty stance was at his fingertips. If he was not thrown into this pit, he would not have gotten into so much trouble. Now that he saw how fearful the Ouyang family clan's guards behaved, it was really...

Great!

"Make way quickly." Without looking at those guards, the Blood Moon Elder walked in himself. Ye Qingtang subsequently brought the little white tiger down the carriage and followed behind the Blood Moon Elder into the Ouyang family clan residence.

The guards at the door could only watch that beautiful young man beside their Young Miss in surprise.

However, even if they were confused, no one dared to question as everyone knew that the Ouyang family clan's Young Miss was bad-tempered and obstinate. If they made her unhappy, they probably would not even know how they died.

The Blood Moon Elder and Ye Qingtang entered the Ouyang family clan together. Upon hearing the news, the housekeeper immediately brought people to welcome them.

"Please forgive us for not welcoming you earlier as we did not know you were returning today, Young Miss. Do pardon us!" The housekeeper welcomed her respectfully.

"Mhm." The Blood Moon Elder nodded arrogantly.

"This is..." The housekeeper instinctively looked at the beautiful young man beside Ouyang Qian.

The Blood Moon Elder's face darkened immediately. "Do I still need to tell you who I bring back?"

"I don't dare, don't dare... I've overstepped my line."

"You better not dare. Where's my fa... father?" The Blood Moon Elder was a little awkward when he mentioned the word "father."

"The Qin family's Eldest Young Sir is here for a visit today. The Family Master is in the hall right now."

"Qin family's Eldest Young Sir?"

The Blood Moon Elder was not very clear about the Qin family's Eldest Young Sir and looked towards Ye Qingtang instinctively.

However, a cold glint suddenly flashed across Ye Qingtang's eyes.

She only told the Blood Moon Elder about the relations of the people in the Ouyang family clan and forgot that Qin Chen existed.

Qin Chen was the son of Qin Long, the current premier of the Nine Nights Dynasty.

Although the Nine Nights Dynasty was controlled by the Nine Nights Royals on the surface, the Emperor suddenly became seriously ill a few years ago and could not preside the political affairs. As such, he had to pass his position onto his young son who was only five years old back then. The premier, QIn Long, was appointed as a Supporting Minister to help the new Emperor in presiding over the political affairs.

However...

No matter how intelligent a five-year-old kid was, he definitely did not have the ability to control the court.

Although Qin Long was a premier, he secretly controlled most of the power in the Nine Nights Dynasty with the excuse that the Emperor was young, and he even cajoled the young Emperor to fully believe in him. Currently, the Nine Nights Dynasty was gradually descending into corruption and chaos, and this was mostly related to Qin Long's control.

Qin Chen was Qin Long's only son and was very doted on by Qin Long. Moreover, Qin Long had planned to form a marriage alliance with the number one family clan, Ouyang family clan, and he thus wanted Qin Chen to interact more with Ouyang Qian.

When Ye Qingtang knew Ouyang Qian back then, Ouyang Qian and Qin Chen were extremely close. From what she knew, when Ouyang Qian drugged her, it was Qin Chen who helped Ouyang Qian get the drug, and it was also him who told Ouyang Qian about Ye Qingtang's Heart of the Demon God.

Ye Qingtang did not expect that he would actually bump into Qin Chen here. She secretly gave a look to the Blood Moon Elder for him to not act rashly, which he understood immediately. He told the housekeeper. "Alright. You can retreat first. I'll just go to the hall myself later."

The housekeeper did not dare to defy orders and obediently led the people away.

Looking at his current stance where "every word carried weight," the Blood Moon Elder was increasingly comfortable, seeming to return to his arrogance when he was in his peak back in the years.

Now, it seemed that there were benefits in seizing Ouyang Qian's body.

After all, the Ouyang family clan's position was not ordinary, and Ouyang Qian was deeply doted on by the Ouyang Family Clan Master, Ouyang Jian. In the Nine Nights Dynasty, it could be said that she could have anything she wanted...

When the Ouyang family clan servants left, Ye Qingtang immediately notified the Blood Moon Elder of Qin Chen's identity, though she naturally hid the fact that Qin Chen wanted to seduce Ouyang Qian.

"When you see Ouyang Jian later, just speak as how we planned earlier." Ye Qingtang told the Blood Moon Elder.

As long as they could get past this stage, the Blood Moon Elder's identity as the Ouyang family clan's Young Miss would be solidified. After all, there were rare cases of possessing others' body. As long as the Blood Moon Elder did not expose himself, there should not be any problems.

In the hall of the Ouyang family clan, Ouyang Jian was seated at the highest-ranking position. Although he was over fifty years old, he maintained his appearance well. He had a good-looking face, and there was not a single gray hair to be seen.

"Oh? Qian is back?" A smile suddenly broke out on Ouyang Jian's stoic face. He was extremely happy that his daughter returned safely.

"Yes." The housekeeper replied honestly.

After hearing that, a handsome man in the hall spoke immediately, "Miss Qian is a good person and is protected by the god. Uncle Ouyang was worried that Qian may meet with danger in this mystic realm. Now that she has returned, your heart can finally be at ease."

Ouyang Jian laughed. "Qian is stubborn. I originally did not wish for her to head to this mystic realm herself, but I could not convince her. Fortunately, she returned safely though. Since you happen to be here today as well, treat it as welcoming Qian back home."

That handsome man was the current premier's son, Qin Chen.

"That is of course. I haven't seen Qian for a long time as well." Qin Chen replied with a smile.

As they spoke, two figures arrived in the hall. When Ouyang Jian saw the girl at the front, his eyes were immediately filled with a loving expression.

"Qian, you're back."

When the Blood Moon Elder saw Ouyang Jian who was beaming dotingly, he felt an infarction and could only force himself to reply. "Fa... Father, I'm back."

"It's good that you're back. Why are you back alone? Where are the rest?" Ouyang Jian looked behind the Blood Moon Elder. For this trip to the mystic realm, he specially arranged quite a number of people to accompany his daughter. However, apart from a foreign-looking young man behind her, there was not a single member from the Ouyang family clan.

The Blood Moon Elder glanced at Ye Qingtang from the corner of his eyes. When he saw Ye Qingtang nodding at him discreetly, grief and indignation filled him. He took a deep breath and pinched his thigh hard without leaving a trace!

The extreme pain that took over him forced two drops of tears out of his eyes. Right after that, he looked up at Ouyang Jian with a grieved expression.

"Father... Everyone... Everyone died..."

"What?!" The smile on Ouyang Jian's face froze instantly.

"That mystic realm was simply a trap. After we entered it, we realized that it was simply not an ordinary mystic realm but a Hundred Level Peril Hell of Avicinaraka... The danger level of it was simply unimaginable. Many of us died soon after entering the mystic realm. If not... If not for the fact that I met Holy... Young Sir Ye, my life would probably have ended in there..." The Blood Moon Elder wailed as he pinched his thigh, brilliantly putting on the grieved expression.

"There's actually such a thing?!" Ouyang Jian's face darkened when he saw his precious daughter crying so pitifully. He immediately stood up and walked to the Blood Moon Elder, patting his back with a doting expression.

"Don't be afraid, Qian. Now that you're back home, no one can harm you anymore."

The Blood Moon Elder was disgusted from being patted by Ouyang Jian but could only force himself to lean on his "father"'s arm frailly in search for comfort.

Ouyang Jian looked at his daughter in his arms with a frown. Then, he looked up at the beautiful young man who followed the Blood Moon Elder into the Ouyang family clan. However, at this instant, there was less affection and more sharpness in his eyes.

"This is?"

"I am Ye Chen," Ye Qingtang said in a dignified manner.

"May I know who your Master is?" Ouyang Jian asked cautiously. Although the Blood Moon Elder said that this young man was his benefactor, Ouyang Jian did not believe it easily. Given the Ouyang family clan's position, many people schemed to cling to them. Ye Chen was of dubious background, and no one knew what his motive of saving Ouyang Qian was.

Ye Qingtang obviously knew what Ouyang Jian was thinking of. Ouyang Jian was a cautious and ruthless person. He only displayed a kind father's appearance to Ouyang Qian but was exceptionally fierce to others.

"I'm just an itinerant cultivator."

Itinerant cultivator?

Ouyang Jian's eyes sharpened. He had heard a thing or two about the Hundred Level Peril Hell of Avicinaraka before. The people whom the Ouyang family clan sent out this time were all at Martial Qi Level Three and above, and even Ouyang Qian was at Martial Qi Level Three herself.

So many aces lost their lives in the Hell of Avicinaraka, but how capable was this Ye Chen to be able to escape safely and even save his daughter?

"I've troubled you this time, Young Sir Ye. Since you saved Qian, the Ouyang family will naturally not treat you badly." Afterward, Ouyang Jian turned around and spoke to the Blood Moon Elder, "Qian, you were shocked and will need to recuperate. Someone retrieve the Lingyue Elixir for Young Miss."

The Blood Moon Elder's eyes brightened immediately upon hearing those two words.

The Lingyue Pill was a miracle pill that could replenish one's qi and blood and nourish one's muscles and veins. It was a treasure that normal people could not even buy with money.

Before the Blood Moon Elder returned to his senses, the housekeeper had already brought a bottle of Lingyue Elixir and handed it to the Blood Moon Elder.

"Qian, if you need anything, just tell me. I will not let you suffer ever again," Ouyang Jian said dearly.

This time, the Blood Moon Elder did not find it disgusting at all. Looking at the bottle that was filled to the brim with Lingyue Elixir and hearing Ouyang Jian's promise, his heart bloomed...

How was Ouyang family clan's heritage?

How plentiful were their treasures?

Just by how Ouyang Jian pampered Ouyang Qian, he would thrive in the Ouyang family from now on!

"Thank you, father," the Blood Moon Elder said with a smile, saying "father" smoothly and cleanly this time.

"Qian, I didn't think that this trip would be so alarmingly dangerous. Just nice I have some Imperial Spirit Pills. Do accept it too." Qin Chen, who had been silent throughout, suddenly stood up. He took out a few bottles of pills from his space ring and handed them to the Blood Moon Elder.

Although the Imperial Spirit Pill was not as precious as the Lingyue Pill, it was extremely rare as well.

With Ye Qingtang's earlier reminder, the Blood Moon Elder naturally recognized the man before him. However, to him, there was no such logic as rejecting a treasure that was sent right to his doorstep.

"I'll accept it then." The Blood Moon Elder took those bottles of Imperial Spirit Pill over from Qin Chen.

In just a moment, he gained several bottles of precious elixirs and pills successively without even doing anything. The Blood Moon Elder was more than delighted.
