Chapter 544: Permission

Ye Tian Yun didn't return to his courtyard; rather, he went to meet Madam Fang.

Madam Fang was on the Second Floor of the Main Courtyard, and when Ye Tian Yun saw her, she was teaching something to Fang Chen's little sister, Fang Ning.

"Ah, Xiao Chen?" She was at first a bit taken aback by Ye Tian Yun's arrival, "What happened, dear? Are you alright?"

Her first thought was similar in line with Madam Fang Bai. The latter was also worried that something serious had happened and didn't wish for Ye Tian Yun to exert pressure on his body, fearing his wounds may open up and his condition might relapse.

"Nothing, I am just here to ask you about something." Ye Tian Yun replied, reassuring her not to worry about him.

"Big Brother!" Fang Ning's cheer interrupted the conversation as she went running into Ye Tian Yun for a hug.

Ye Tian Yun smiled and patted her head. 

Then thinking about something, he smiled at her while saying, "Let's visit the new snack place that opened in the Capital after a few days."

"Oh! Oh! I know what Big brother is talking about! You're talking about the Burger Queen palace, right?"

"Burger Queen?" Ye Tian Yun laughed, "Is this what they named it?"

"Yes," Fang Ning nodded, and then in a regretful voice, she said, "There are a lot of crowds, and that place treats everyone equally, so it's almost impossible to get the burger."

"Don't worry," Ye Tian Yun smiled, "The owner is… a friend of mine."

"Hmph! Big Brother, don't you lie to me!"

"Why would I lie to you?" Ye Tian Yun felt puzzled.

Fang Ning crossed her arms and held her head high, "No one knows who is the owner of Burger Queen place."

And then lowering her voice, as if afraid that someone might overhear, she said, "And Big Brother, I heard the guards of that place are in Core Formation Realm! So powerful! I think it's someone from the Crimson Pavilion. Only they have such strength. Anyway, don't lie to Ning'er. No one knows who the owner is."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "I am not lying. I have met the owner, and in fact, he had personally cooked Burgers for my other friends and me. If he's around in the Burger Queen place, I am sure he will have enough burgers for you."

"Really!" Fang Ning beamed, "Yay! I can finally have burgers! I can finally have burgers!"

"Yes, you can," Ye Tian Yun smiled, "But you will have to promise me one thing."

"What? What?" Fang Ning was too excited to care. She was going to agree with almost any condition or promise.

"You won't tell anyone that I know the owner. It will hurt his business, and he won't be able to cook anything for you."

"Oh," Fang Ning nodded.

Then crossing her arms, she puffed her chest and declared.

"Big Brother! Don't you worry, I will never tell this to anyone!" 

"Good Ning'er." Ye Tian Yun patted her.

"Ugh, Big Brother, I am not a kid, don't pat me!" She tried to avoid, but not with her whole heart.

Clearly, the child in her loved the pats.

Ye Tian Yun patted her once again, "Okay, Grandma. You're not a child then."

"Hmph! You're Grandma!"

"Alright. Then what are you? Small Grandma?"

"Hmph! Mother, see, Big Brother is bullying Ning'er…" She made a pitiful face at Madam Fang.

"Ahahaha, you brats," Madam Fang finally couldn't hold back her laughter and then smiling at Ye Tian Yun, she asked, "Son, what were you saying earlier?"

Ye Tian Yun turned his head towards her while saying, "I have some friends from the Gracious Sword Sect who will be staying in our clan for the next few months."

"Haven't I already met them?" Madam Fang was a bit confused.

"Those were Zheng Xiang and Bai Qing'er." Ye Tian Yun replied, "Zheng Xiang will be staying here, but Bai Qing'er is planning to leave. And about half an hour ago, two more of my friends arrived here. They are Jun Xie and Miss Wu. Jun is my Senior Brother and a Core Disciple in the Gracious Sword Sect, but we both consider ourselves equal."

"Oh?" Madam Fang smiled, "Did you arrange rooms for them?"

"Yeah, I did."

"Alright," Madam Fang nodded, "We will expand your courtyard and have three to four more rooms attached. And I will also add a dining hall, in case your friends don't feel comfortable eating with others in the family."

"It's alright," Ye Tian Yun waved his hand, "But yeah, it's not a matter of a few days but at least till the Grand Spirit Hunt. So I think it's better if we make these arrangements."

"Hmm, don't worry about this." Madam Fang smiled.

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Alright then, this was it."

Madam Fang stepped closer to Ye Tian Yun, and putting her hands on his shoulders; she said, "Son, get well soon. Your cultivation talent is finally blooming. I hope you don't disappoint your father."

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips and lightly nodded.

…

Five minutes later, Ye Tian Yun was heading back towards his courtyard.

His destination was the practice ground. 

When he reached there, the others were already present.

"You guys are not planning to rest for today?" Ye Tian Yun asked Jun Xie and Wu Qingwu.

"Nah, it's not like I was doing any work on the way. All we did was fight off a few ambushes and then rest for the whole way." Jun Xie shrugged.

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Alright, let's start practicing."

Zheng Xiang suddenly said, "Brother Fang, I just sparred with Senior Brother Jun. I still have a long way to go. His illusions are very powerful."

"Yeah, they are the real deal," Ye Tian Yun nodded.

The only reason why Jun Xie's illusions didn't work on Ye Tian Yun was that the latter had a high spiritual range and cultivation realm.

'But Jun Xie's potential is higher in Spiritual Talent.'

"Let's spar." Jun Xie asked Ye Tian Yun, "I want to see how much I have improved compared to the banquet."
