Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 175: Forced



There was silence all around for about half a cup of tea. Just when Ye Shuo thought the other party had left, he suddenly heard the old man’s voice above his head.

“Boy, I know you are awake. Open your eyes, I have something to ask you.”

Ye Shuo’s heart tightened, and he was forced to open his eyes helplessly: “Senior.”

Ye Shuo was already quite stunning when he closed his eyes. The injured young man leaned against a big tree. The tree canopy was shady and mottled shadows fell on his face and body. Even though he was dirty, it couldn’t hide his nobleness, but added a sense of abject beauty. That scene was really like a god descending to the earth.

No wonder the old man was immediately interested.

This was the first time the old man used the word “beautiful” to describe a man. He had never known before that beauty could also be used to describe a man.

Thinking about how Concubine Rong was so stunning and famous in the capital, there is no need to say more. He inherited the beauty of both Concubine Rong and Emperor Jingwen, plus his own performance. Not to mention anything else, just Ye Shuo’s appearance is so good that it would be hard to find a second person in the world who can compare with him.

The old man was just thinking that such a face should only be used for appreciation. It would be a pity if is a vulgar person from inside.

It’s like a beautiful jade with a flaw, it’s suddenly no longer beautiful.

After Ye Shuo opened his eyes, the old man discovered that this man’s eyes were also so beautiful.

The young man was born with a pair of phoenix eyes with slightly upturned corners, which made him look extremely elegant and noble. His gaze was as clear as water, and for a moment, the old man felt that he was the vulgar man.

Or maybe compared to him, everyone seems tacky.

Quickly suppressing the thought in his mind, the old man stared into his eyes and asked, “Boy, let me ask you, are you married?”

When asking this question, the old man didn’t have much hope at first. After all, there were very few young men and women in the world who were still unmarried at this age.

The old man asked this question out of exception because he was so handsome.

Ye Shuo was stunned when he heard this: “Ah?”

What the hell is this question?

Thinking about the old man’s intention in his heart, Ye Shuo shook his head and said, “No.”

“Then… do you have any concubines, maids, or any lovers outside?” The old man had a sharp eye. He knew from the way he was dressed that he was not from an ordinary family, so he asked this question. The old man was already prepared. If he mentioned any, he would immediately turn around and leave.

Even though he is good-looking, you can’t accept him even if you already have someone in your heart.

Ye Shuo vaguely heard something, but at this time, he could only tell the truth: “…To reply to your question, no.”

“Impossible!” The old man denied it without even thinking.

“Unless there is something wrong with your body.” Either he is a liar, or else how could such a man have never had a woman?

The old man had also been young, how could he not understand the bad roots of men in the world? It is useless for a man to be good-looking, it is all just a show, the inner qualities are also very important.

After saying this, without giving Ye Shuo any chance to resist, the old man stretched out his hand like lightning and was about to touch his pulse.

How could Ye Shuo just surrender like that? His stepfather and the Seventh Prince were both in a coma, so Ye Shuo fought without reservation.

His move made the old man a little frightened. What a profound internal skill!

He didn’t even notice it just now. If he had attacked me when I was bending over to check, I don’t think I would have gotten away with it.

I’ve been in the mountains for too long and I’ve lost my vigilance.

That’s the trick…why does it become more and more obscene the more I look at it?

“Stop, stop, stop. I don’t want to fight with you anymore.” If they continue fighting like this, it will be difficult to determine the winner for a while.

The key is that I have the advantage now, so there is no need to fight him to death.

Ye Shuo couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that. He had suffered internal injuries. After a night of sleep, although he had recovered some strength, his chest still hurt terribly.

If possible, he didn’t want to fight to the death.

Noticing that he seemed to have an injury on his chest, and then looking at the other two seriously injured and dying people on the ground, the old man said: “Whether you have a physical problem or are lying, we will know the truth in a few days.”

Those people in the valley are not vegetarians either.

“I just ask you, are you willing to go with me?”

Regarding this issue, Ye Shuo was definitely willing, but it was obvious that the other party did not seem to be so kind.

“Senior, what do you want from me?”

The brain is still quite flexible.

The old man was satisfied and asked, “What do you have?”

Ye Shuo paused and said, “Money? Power? Or…”

“I don’t want any of these.” Before Ye Shuo could finish, the old man interrupted him impatiently: “I only want you.”

Sounds weird…

Ye Shuo shuddered on the spot, his vigilance instantly increased, and he was also prepared to perish together with the old man in front of him.

“A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated! I don’t agree!”

Hearing this, the old man was stunned at first, and then jumped up on the spot: “What are you thinking!”

The old man also felt humiliated.

As the mighty Hou Tian Yi, how could he be such a dirty and disgusting person!

If it weren’t for his face, the old man would have taken action long ago if he had had the same temper as before.

After taking a deep breath, the old man managed to suppress his anger: “It’s not me, it’s my disciple. She is 23 years old and still unmarried.”

Even if you are a man of the world, with a dignified sword, and claim to be free and easy, it is still difficult for you to break away from the current mainstream thinking.

In the ancient times, when it was common for teenagers to get married, the old man’s apprentice was now 23 years old. How could he not be anxious?

Not only was he anxious, but everyone in the Medicine Valley was anxious.

The old man is already seventy years old this year. How many years can he live? He was worried when he thought about leaving his disciple alone in this world.

But the problem is that ever since that incident, his disciple has refused to give in, which has made the old man and his group very anxious.

Well, there is no other way, the old man can only try other methods.

Ye Shuo’s arrival rekindled hope in the old man’s long-silent heart.

The old man didn’t believe that his disciple would not be tempted if he brought such a “beauty” back.

Doesn’t the young man in front of him look much better than his apprentice’s senior brother who is not even remotely related to her? If this young man is the moon in the sky, then her senior brother is the firefly on the ground, and how can the light of a firefly compete with the brightness of the bright moon?

But the problem is that even if she is the old man’s apprentice, Ye Shuo cannot agree.

“Marriage is about mutual affection between two people. How can it be forced?”

However, the old man still didn’t care: “Who said this is a forced sale?” If his disciple looks down on him, the worst that could happen is that he will just return the goods.

“My disciple can buy it, but you can’t.”

The old man had never thought that the young man in front of him would refuse, and he never gave him a chance to refuse.

The worst that could happen is they can just kidnap him. Even though his Kung Fu is a little tricky, it’s not a problem for them.

It was just that the situation had not yet come to that point, so the old man was willing to talk to him a few more words instead of forcing him to do anything.

Ye Shuo never imagined that he would actually meet someone in ancient times who would just twist the melon off without caring whether it was sweet or not.

“Senior, this really can’t be done…”

“Stop talking nonsense.” The old man glanced at the two people on the ground.

“If you agree, I will rescue them. If you don’t agree, then the three of you will stay in this deep forest.”

“But I have to remind you that within this 100-mile radius, there is only one family in this Valley. If you want to find someone to help, you have to go at least another 100 miles west. You can do it yourself.”

It is already afternoon and it will be dark soon. The temperature in the mountains will drop sharply after dark, and wild beasts will roam around at night. It is not certain that his cheap father and his seventh brother will be able to survive until tomorrow morning.

Should he watch them die or be forced to compromise? Such a dilemma was immediately placed in front of Ye Shuo.

Ye Shuo used to have infinite dreams for his marriage, but he never expected to encounter such an accident.

Ye Shuo tried to struggle desperately: “Senior, can you please show some leniency for the sake of being a fellow martial artist?”

The old man was not a soft-hearted person when he was out there. If he had not raised his apprentice by accident, he probably would never have known what the word “emotion” was in his life.

Want him to show kindness to a stranger? How is that possible?

Hearing this, the old man turned and left.

Anyway, Zixiao is guarding here. Once these two people are dead and the young man’s physical strength is almost exhausted, it won’t be too late to force him back.

If it was someone he knew well, Ye Shuo could still find the other person’s weakness. However, if he suddenly met a stranger, no matter how capable he was, it would be useless without the third eye.

Finally, when the old man’s figure was about to disappear, Ye Shuo finally spoke.

“…Senior, please stay.”

Ye Shuo was helpless: “I promise you.”

On the bright side, this old man’s apprentice may not necessarily think highly of him, so there might be hope for the situation to turn around.

In this world, not all women have to get married. This old man’s disciple has been able to fight against the secular world for so long, so she will surely not compromise so easily.

Thinking of this, Ye Shuo felt certain.

The old man turned and looked at him, as if trying to determine the truth of his words: “Are you serious?”

What else can Ye Shuo do now that things have come to this?

“A gentleman’s word is his bond.”

So, the matter is settled.

According to the old man, unless his disciple doesn’t want him first, Ye Shuo can only belong to his disciple.

For his stepfather and the seventh prince, Ye Shuo sacrificed too much.

Maybe he heard the conversation between the two while he was unconscious, but Emperor Jingwen’s brows subconsciously raised and his eyeballs kept moving, as if he was preparing to struggle to wake up.

But he had no choice. He had lost too much blood and did not have the strength to do so. After tossing and turning for a while, he could not resist his body’s reaction and fell into a deep sleep.

Ye Shuo carried his adoptive father on his back, while the old man carried the seventh prince on his back.

It was only then that the old man realized that the person on his back seemed to be quite good-looking, better than his apprentice’s senior brother, but because Ye Shuo had set such a good example before him, the old man didn’t even notice him the whole time.

Seeing this, Ye Shuo was about to sell out the Seventh Prince, but then he suddenly remembered that the Seventh Prince had already been married and had a lot of concubines in his house, which did not even meet the threshold required by the old man.

Ye Shuo could only give up in disappointment.

When they got on the road, the old man asked Ye Shuo a lot of questions, such as his age, height, weight, etc. The old man asked everything.

When he heard that he was only twenty years old, three years younger than his apprentice, the old man frowned subconsciously.

But soon, the old man put the matter aside.

He’s only three years younger than his apprentice, so it doesn’t matter.

Ye Shuo thought about it and thought that he couldn’t sell himself at a big loss, so when he was halfway there, Ye Shuo said: “Master, you see, since we are now a family, my fourth brother, fifth brother, and eighth brother are still missing. I don’t know where they were washed away by the water. Could you please help find them?”

Caught off guard, the old man stopped abruptly.

“Huh….?”

“What did you just call me?”
