As soon as he said this, the faces of the three people in the hall showed looks of shock.
Ye Huanxi and Ye Yuanyao looked at each other at the same time, and their eyes collided in the air, as if sparks were bursting out.
Wang Tiezhu was thinking secretly in his heart.
"Ye Tianxiong is now in his prime, why did he announce the next head of the Ye family so early?"
But immediately, he remembered something.
"No! Ye Tianxiong is addicted to the art of alchemy. Could it be that his body has suffered some serious injury? As a result, he had to announce the ownership of the next head of the family in advance?!"
The more Wang Tiezhu thought about it, the more likely it became. He unconsciously looked at Ye Tianxiong in the hall, and saw that he was full of energy and vitality, and did not look like he was suffering from any injury at all.
Perhaps because he noticed Wang Tiezhu's gaze, Ye Tianxiong's eyes immediately glanced over.
"Wang Xiaoyou, what can you do?"
Hearing this, Wang Tiezhu was startled, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Uncle Ye, I'm just thinking, the realms of Miss Ye and Huanxi are so different, is this fair?"
"Um?"
Ye Tianxiong asked calmly: "Are you questioning my decision?"
"You have no intention of doing this, kid!"
Wang Tiezhu said immediately: "It's just that as Huanxi's future Taoist monk, I must consider her!"
Hearing this, Ye Huanxi's body trembled and she turned to look at him.
"Senior Brother Wang..."
Ye Tianxiong looked down at this young man who was bowing but with a straight back, nodded imperceptibly, and then said: "I can't help but believe your reason..."
"But don't worry, I will set different standards for them based on their cultivation level at that time, and I will never favor any party!"
"Thank you Uncle Ye!"
After saying that, Wang Tiezhu stepped aside respectfully.
However, at this moment, Ye Yuanyao suddenly stepped forward and said: "Father, regarding Huanxi and this prince, my daughter cannot agree!"
Before Ye Tianxiong could speak, Ye Huanxi glared at her sister and shouted sternly: "Why don't you agree? Just because you are a few years older than me? Just because you are my sister?"
Ye Yuan stood up straight and walked to Ye Huanxi. She looked at her sister who was a head shorter than her with an indifferent expression.
"Yes, just because I am your sister, I will not allow you to become a Taoist couple with this country boy with low cultivation level!"
"Hey hey hey!"
Wang Tiezhu had a black line on his head and complained feebly in his heart.
"Why did the conflict between you sisters suddenly involve me?"
"What kind of low cultivation level? What kind of country boy? Does my sister just want me to find a dandy who is just like that Gao Xiong, who is only interested in profit and doesn't know etiquette?"
Ye Huanxi raised his head and looked at his sister, without any fear in his eyes.
"Ever since you were a child, you have never fulfilled the responsibility of a sister. You are always better than me in everything, and you have never cared about anything about me.
Why should I choose my Taoist companion based on my sister's preferences now? No matter whether you agree or disagree, I, Ye Huanxi, will only identify with Senior Brother Wang in my whole life!"
After saying that, Ye Huanxi rushed out of the door and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Junior Sister Ye!"
Wang Tiezhu glanced at Ye Yuanyao coldly, said goodbye to Ye Tianxiong who looked indifferent, and immediately chased him out.
"I……"
Ye Yuanyao looked at their disappearing figures and moved her arms slightly, as if she wanted to reach out to hold them back, but in the end she did not take any action. She bowed to her father and then retreated.
After they left, Ye Tianxiong, who was sitting alone in the lobby, looked as usual, as if the person who had just argued was not his daughter, but two strangers. He picked up the tea cup and continued to sip the tea.
The other side.
Wang Tiezhu chased him into the yard, but Ye Huanxi's figure had long since disappeared. He was not familiar with Ye Mansion, so he had no choice but to activate the Dongling Pupil.
According to the trajectory of Ye Huanxi's spiritual energy, Wang Tiezhu found Ye Huanxi crying at his desk in a quiet bamboo forest.
He sat quietly aside and did not disturb Ye Huanxi, but just stayed with her quietly.
After a long time, Ye Huanxi finally raised his head, wiped the tears from his face, looked to the side, and found Wang Tiezhu sitting next to him.
"Senior Brother Wang! How did you find this place?"
Wang Tiezhu showed a faint smile and joked: "Of course I found him after listening to Junior Sister Ye's cries!"
Ye Huanxi was shocked when he heard this and asked quickly: "Really? Is my crying... so loud?"
Seeing her nervous expression, Wang Tiezhu laughed, and a red light flashed between his eyebrows.
Ye Huanxi also understood at this moment that he had used his magical power to find himself, and it was not because he cried too loudly.
However, after Wang Tiezhu said this, the unhappiness in Ye Huanxi's heart was almost gone, and he suddenly recalled what he said when he left the lobby.
"...I, Ye Huanxi, have only recognized one person, Senior Brother Wang, in my entire life!"
This sentence kept lingering in her mind, and now she was facing the person in question, her face immediately turned rosy.
"Wang...Senior Brother Wang, what I just said was just out of excitement. Senior Brother Wang, please don't take it to heart!"
"Hahaha!"
Wang Tiezhu laughed a few times and then said: "I understand! Don't worry, Junior Sister Ye, those words have long since slipped out of my ears without leaving any trace!"
"Yes...really? That's good..."
Hearing what Wang Tiezhu said, Ye Huanxi, who should have been relieved, felt a little disappointed in his heart for some reason.
Wang Tiezhu didn't notice anything was wrong with Ye Huanxi. He just nodded slightly and suddenly remembered his previous guess about Ye Tianxiong, so he asked.
"Junior sister Ye, I have something to ask you, about your father."
"My father?"
Ye Huanxi was slightly startled, "What does Senior Brother Wang want to know?"
"Um……"
Wang Tiezhu thought for a moment and said, "When did your father start refining alchemy? Has his attitude towards your sisters always been this way? Or, has your father been injured in any way?"
"this……"
Seeing Ye Huanxi's hesitation, he immediately said: "I have absolutely no other intentions. If Junior Sister Ye feels it is inappropriate, there is no need to answer!"
Ye Huanxi shook his head, "That's not true. I believe that Senior Brother Wang asked these questions for a reason, but I didn't think of it for a while. Let me recall..."
After that, she thought about it and talked.
"Although I don't know what my father was like when my sister was a child, but in my memory, he has always had that indifferent attitude..."
