“Mother…” Ye Chen looked at his mother’s appearance and tears immediately welled up in his eyes. His heart was filled with a myriad of emotions. He took a deep breath and walked up to his mother. He reached out and hugged his mother tightly as he sobbed, “This child is back, mother!”

Hearing Ye Chen’s voice, the Empress Dowager immediately burst into tears.

All these years, she had missed her son day and night. She had imagined Ye Chen’s appearance countless times. Unfortunately, she would never be able to see her child again.

The Empress Dowager’s body trembled slightly. Tears flickered in her eyes as she sobbed and called Ye Chen’s name non-stop.

“Mother…” Ye Chen hugged his mother and felt a wave of sadness in his heart.

“Child, you’re finally back. I knew that you would definitely come back, my good child!”

The Empress Dowager hugged Ye Chen tightly, feeling the familiar scent in her arms. At this moment, her heart was agitated, excited, and moved.

“Mother, I’m back! I’m back!” Ye Chen hugged his mother tightly, comforting her while muttering to himself.

“Alright, you silly child, you’re going to hurt me.”

“Yes yes yes. Let go, let go, let mother take a good look at you.”

The Empress Dowager said anxiously as she wiped Ye Chen’s face.

Ye Chen let go of his arms and allowed the Empress Dowager to caress his face.

“It’s really exactly the same. Nothing has changed.” The Empress Dowager looked carefully at Ye Chen. Her beautiful eyes were filled with excitement and joy.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager looked at Ye Chen in shock and asked, “Little Chen, you really didn’t die. Back then, I told myself that you didn’t die! It’s great that you’re fine.”

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed in.

“Those who trespass the Heart Nourishing Palace Hall, die!”

The eunuch immediately charged toward Ye Chen.

The aura of the Transcending Tribulation Realm instantly spread out as he struck out with his palm toward Ye Chen.

The corners of Ye Chen’s mouth curled up slightly, and in an instant, a powerful force surged out from Ye Chen’s body.

Boom —

A loud sound rang out.

The eunuch was instantly forced back.

“Stop!”

At this moment, the Empress Dowager’s voice sounded out as well.

The eunuch immediately said, “Reporting to the Empress Dowager, they have trespassed into the Heart Nourishing Palace Hall and this humble subject was unable to capture them. This humble subject did not do a good job, please punish me, Empress Dowager!”

At this moment, the Empress Dowager looked at the eunuch and said, “Eunuch Liu, they are not bad people. Do you know who they are?”

At this moment, Eunuch Liu looked carefully at Ye Chen.

He realized that Ye Chen’s appearance was very similar to the statue in the square.

Could it be…

He suddenly thought of a possibility.

Previously, they all thought that the Human Emperor had died. Therefore, if it was not someone who had interacted with Ye Chen, even if they saw Ye Chen, they would definitely not be able to remember.

After all, it had already been a hundred years.

Hence, when he saw Ye Chen, he did not know who Ye Chen was.

He immediately asked in shock, “Could it be that…you are the legendary His Majesty the Human Emperor?”

At this moment, the Empress Dowager smiled faintly and said, “If it was someone else who could barge in so easily, wouldn’t they hurt you?”

As soon as these words were said, Eunuch Liu immediately knelt down and bowed.

“Liu Yong pays his respects to his majesty, the Human Emperor. Liu Yong has previously contradicted His Majesty. His Majesty, please punish him!”

Ye Chen smiled and said, “You did not allow me to come in, which means that your guards are good. Why would I punish you?”

The Empress Dowager also immediately said, “Alright, you can leave first!”

“Yes!”

Eunuch Liu immediately retreated.

“Little Chen, what happened back then?” The Empress Dowager asked Ye Chen about the situation back then.

At this moment, Ye Chen helped his mother to sit down and said, “Mother, sit down first, I’ll tell you slowly.”

The Empress Dowager pulled Ye Chen to sit down, and Ye Chen began to tell her about the events back then.

It started from the battle with the Deity Clan’s Grandmaster.

How he was resurrected, how he entered the Upper Realm, what he did in the Upper Realm, and how he found his Second Senior Sister. These things were all told to his mother in full detail.

After she finished speaking, Holy Mother Immortal Jade touched Ye Chen’s face and smiled. “Little Chen, all these years have been hard on you. You have to bear all these things by yourself.”

Ye Chen looked at his mother and calmly said, “I am the Human Emperor. Naturally, I have to be responsible for our human race.”

Ye Chen smiled, “Alright, mother, let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk about your matters.”

“All these years, mother, have you been living well?” Ye Chen asked.

The Empress Dowager smiled, “After you left, we all lived very well. It’s just that we often think of you.”

“After you left, your younger brother inherited your throne. Little Chen, you won’t resent your younger brother, right? Now that you’re back, I’ll ask him to return the throne to you!” The Empress Dowager immediately said.

Ye Chen smiled and said, “Mother, I didn’t come back to snatch my younger brother’s throne. And you know that I don’t like this. I came back this time to see you all.

“And now, I see that our human race is already in good order under my younger brother’s rule. So, I’ll leave this place to him!”

“Oh right, where’s father?” Ye Chen immediately asked.

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked in.

The person who came was none other than Ye Chen’s father, the current retired emperor, Ji Wentian!

At this moment, Ji Wentian stared at Ye Chen in shock.

“Little Chen, is that you?”

“You…”

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Father, it’s me. I’ve been resurrected!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Chen’s father’s eyes were filled with excitement.

The three of them exchanged greetings for a very long time. The current Ye Chen had also let go of some of the grudges he had toward his father back then and accepted his father.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager said indifferently, “Men.”

Eunuch Liu, who had just been at the door, immediately walked in and bowed. “Empress Dowager!”

“Go report to His Majesty and have him come to Heart Nourishing Palace Hall!”

“Yes!”

Eunuch Liu immediately walked out.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager held Ye Chen’s hand and smiled. “Speaking of which, at that time, your younger brother was only in his teens and he had not seen you much. Now that you two brothers have gathered, you must catch up properly!”

Ye Chen smiled and said, “Of course.”

Ye Chen waited in Heart Nourishing Palace Hall. After a long time, suddenly, a voice came from outside, “The Emperor has arrived!”

A young man wearing a dragon robe slowly walked in.

“Greetings to the Emperor!”

The people outside bowed one by one.

A man stepped into Heart Nourishing Palace Hall and then bowed slightly to the Empress Dowager and the retired emperor, “Father, mother!”

At this moment, the Empress Dowager immediately waved her hand and said, “Feng ‘er, come quickly and greet your elder brother!”

As soon as she said this, the emperor immediately looked at Ye Chen and said in shock, “Elder brother? Elder brother, you didn’t die?”
