Chapter 1895: Chapter 1893: Telling My Parents My True Identity

As the saying goes: First, parents press for marriage, and after marriage, it’s immediately about having children. Marriage and having children are inherently linked and unavoidable.

Watching his parents earnestly persuade them to have children, Ye Tianchen knew there was no way to reason with them; explanations were useless. The grandparents’ desire to see a grandson was just too strong to be reasoned away with logic!

However, Ye Tianchen originally planned to reveal his true identity and the true worldview of this world to his parents as soon as he and Liu Rumei got married. But seeing his father, Ye Hong, and mother, Luo Yan, so eager to hold a grandchild, Ye Tianchen was stumped, not knowing where to start or how to begin.

After breakfast, Ye Hong and Luo Yan left; after all, older people have their own entertainment. Similarly, Liu Fei and Ye Qianwen left because they are young and have their own activities. Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei exchanged a knowing smile, nodded at each other, and walked out of the Ye family dining room!

Along the way, the two were in perfect sync, neither spoke first, and when they reached the deserted Small Bamboo Forest, Liu Rumei smiled and asked, ”Do you have something on your mind?”

”Yeah!” Ye Tianchen nodded.

”Are you thinking about how to tell your parents about your identity?” Liu Rumei continued to ask.

”Yeah!” Ye Tianchen nodded again.

”This is indeed a difficult matter, and anyone in your position would feel it’s hard to handle!” Liu Rumei also said with a frown.

Ye Tianchen looked at a row of stone benches in front of them and gestured for Liu Rumei to sit with him. They sat by the path in the Small Bamboo Forest, not like a married couple, but like a pair of young lovers. Looking at the small bamboo forest before them, Ye Tianchen said, still bearing some worries:

”To be honest, one of the reasons I married you was because of my parents—they were too eager to see me get married. I originally wanted to fulfill their wish after marrying and then reveal my true identity. No matter their choice, I would respect it. But I really didn’t expect they seem to want a grandchild even more, to the point where there’s no room for negotiation!”

Listening to Ye Tianchen, Liu Rumei wasn’t angry. Perhaps an ordinary woman would be angry, feeling that Ye Tianchen doesn’t love her and only married her to care for his parents’ feelings. But Liu Rumei didn’t think that way. The reason was simple: she truly loved Ye Tianchen.

”That’s because you’ve never paid attention to the customs of the Mortal World. After all, we live in the Mortal World, and you don’t. So you wouldn’t know or understand these things. I’m just wondering, what do you plan to do next?” Liu Rumei asked, looking at Ye Tianchen.

”I don’t know either. It’s the first time I’ve felt so helpless!” Ye Tianchen said with a bitter smile, shaking his head.

Liu Rumei glanced at Ye Tianchen and then teased with a smile, ”You’re someone who fears neither heaven nor earth, valuing sentiment and righteousness, living freely. How could you be stumped? This isn’t like your character!”

”Family is what I care about most. I can disregard everything else, but I must care for them. The things they bring me are what I cherish most in my lifetime!” Ye Tianchen said earnestly.

”Yes, I actually don’t know what to do either. You know that continuing this way isn’t a solution. I can only tell you that no matter what choice you make, I’ll be with you!” Liu Rumei said seriously, looking at Ye Tianchen earnestly.

Ye Tianchen was taken aback, then looked at Liu Rumei and earnestly nodded, saying, ”Rest assured, since I married you, you’re my woman for life!”

Hug!

This was the first time Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei embraced each other, a sincere embrace where both felt each other’s emotions, genuine emotions. It was a feeling of being moved, of happiness, bringing tears to Liu Rumei’s beautiful eyes!

”I’ve decided that we should tell my parents about my true identity now. Continuing this way isn’t a solution. Given my current situation, unless I wait till they age and pass away, I can’t have no worries. But with my status now, I can’t wait!” Ye Tianchen said with firm eyes.

In the days spent in the Mortal World’s Capital City, Ye Tianchen had thought more than once about matters in the three major Ancient Martial realms. Everyone in this Martial Arts World could feel the upcoming major change in the Magic Law—an event that was inevitable. Ye Tianchen remembered that before leaving, the Battle King Qin Kongdao had told him that if Earth exposed itself again to the Martial Arts World, it would undoubtedly begin with the three major Ancient Martial realms. The change in the Magic Law and the arrival of stronger beings would surely start from there. And now, what were things like within those realms?

There were many people and matters Ye Tianchen was concerned about there. What he feared most was returning to find no one and nothing left, which would be a pain too unbearable to fathom. After experiencing so much together and striving to bring peace to Desolate Stone Village, it couldn’t just all be destroyed, right?

Ye Tianchen understood now, and it was Liu Rumei’s words that enlightened him. Although he wanted to be filial and considerate of his parents’ feelings, with his current status and position, it was hard to solely consider their feelings. Parents want to see him get married—so he gets married; they want to see him have children—so he has children; they want to see him inherit the family business—so he does. Wouldn’t he never be able to leave? It was not that Ye Tianchen was unfilial, but with his current status, being filial wasn’t his sole concern, nor was it entirely up to his personal desires. He had a lot more to consider!

Primarily, if he continued prioritizing his parents’ feelings, the cycle would be endless, truly no conclusion. For Ye Tianchen, it no longer suited his current identity!

Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei went to the villa where his parents, Ye Hong and Luo Yan, lived. Upon arrival, they found the old housekeeper waiting for them, who told Ye Tianchen, ”Young master, the master and madam knew you would come, and instructed you to go directly to the rooftop of the villa!”

Ye Tianchen was a bit surprised, then nodded, saying nothing more, and went with Liu Rumei up to the rooftop of the villa. When they arrived, Ye Hong and Luo Yan were drinking tea there.

”Dad, Mom!”

”Dad, Mom!”

”Yes, please sit down first!” Luo Yan said with a smile, nodding.

Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei sat down, looking at Ye Hong and Luo Yan. Ye Tianchen furrowed his brow and began, ”Dad, Mom, today I came because I have something to tell you, I...”

Who knew before he finished, Ye Hong interrupted him, saying: ”No matter what you are about to tell us, your mother and I have only one request, our final request for you, hoping you can fulfill it!”

”What request?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”Tianchen, Rumei, when one ages, there’s only one pursuit left: seeing their lineage continue. Your father and I have only one wish—that before we die, we can see our grandchild. This is considered the joy of family—the greatest wish of the elderly!” Luo Yan earnestly added.

”Mom... I... I promise you!” For the first time, Ye Tianchen replied solemnly.

”Okay, speak what you want to say. No matter what you say, your mother and I will support you!” Ye Hong said with a smile.

Ye Tianchen did not expect that Ye Hong and Luo Yan seem to have already known or sensed something. Their unconditional support touched Ye Tianchen deeply, making him again realize that no matter the situation, your family are the ones who support you the most!

”Dad, Mom, look at me here...”

Ye Tianchen knew that to have his parents accept his identity and believe what he said was true, he needed to show them the power of a Martial Artist. Otherwise, they would find it hard to believe. So, having Ye Hong and Luo Yan look at him, Ye Tianchen slowly floated up into the air. It was a sight that left Ye Hong and Luo Yan utterly stunned. However, Ye Tianchen wasn’t finished. With a light wave of his right hand, a bolt of lightning appeared in the sky. He grabbed this lightning, transforming it into sword radiance, shooting into the sky, forming a dazzling flash of lightning.

Swish!

Ye Tianchen returned to his original place, looking at his parents’ astounded expressions. Ye Tianchen understood this was normal. Even if Ye Hong and Luo Yan had guessed something, they might not have imagined it to this extent, nor thought their son was a ”divine being”.

”Is this... what you wanted to tell us?” Ye Hong couldn’t help but ask.

”Yes, I am a Martial Artist. This world, perhaps known as the universe to the ordinary world’s people, is a Martial Arts World, controlled by Martial Artists. Earth is just a tiny corner of the universe, and the ordinary world on Earth is even smaller. In this world, people with identities like mine rule, and Martial Artists are the highest standing individuals!” Ye Tianchen nodded in response.

”A divine being?” Luo Yan asked curiously, coming back to her senses.

”Mom, Martial Artists are people with great power, yet still far from divine beings. However, the goal of all Martial Artists is to walk the path towards divinity, and I’m no exception!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile. (To be continued.
