Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Preparations for Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an’s engagement ceremony were complete, and the ceremony was set to take place tomorrow.

Inside the Huangfu family, there was an air of excitement, and everyone was in high spirits, bustling around to make final preparations for the ceremony.

However, on the Ye family’s side, a stark contrast prevailed – a somber atmosphere loomed. The Ye family had not yet received an invitation from the Huangfu family. It seemed that this time, they were not included in the engagement ceremony.

This news couldn’t be concealed, and many within the family were aware of it. Speculations arose, with people wondering if the strained relations between the Huangfu and Ye families during the previous Family Competition were the cause.

In the Ye residence, Ye Yikun’s health had significantly improved. Upon hearing the numerous rumors circulating outside, he had to exert great effort to restrain his inner emotions. Otherwise, he might have ended up spitting blood once again. This time he directly summoned Ye Hongxuan.

“Father, is there something you need?” Ye Hongxuan respectfully asked as he stood by.

“Tomorrow is the engagement of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an. Are you aware of that?” Ye Yikun asked directly without beating around the bush. “The Huangfu family hasn’t extended an invitation to us. How do you interpret this situation?”

Taken aback by his father’s abrupt question, Ye Hongxuan furrowed his brows before responding, “Father, what else can I think about this matter? You know what happened before. The fact that the Huangfu family is unwilling to invite us already indicates their stance.”

The Ye family’s refusal to recognize Ye Leng’an had led to the Huangfu family reciprocating. This unfavorable situation would undoubtedly spread negative implications for the Ye family.

Despite being an alchemy family, the Ye family couldn’t match the formidable strength of the Huangfu family, especially with Huangfu Ruiling at the helm. Following the recent Family Competition, the Huangfu family had risen to become the preeminent force in the Hidden World.

“Then, regarding Ye Leng’an…” Ye Yikun paused, pondered for a moment, and continued, “What are your plans?”

“Father, are you suggesting…” Ye Hongxuan appeared puzzled.

Previously, his father had made it clear that he adamantly refused to acknowledge Ye Leng’an’s existence and status. Now, he was inquiring about their intentions. What other plans could they possibly have?

“She is your daughter and the future matriarch of the Huangfu family. Don’t you have any thoughts on the matter?” Ye Yikun straightforwardly pointed out. “Reclaiming this daughter is beneficial for both you and the Ye family.”

Upon hearing his father’s words, Ye Hongxuan fell into silence.

He wasn’t naive and understood his father’s underlying meaning. Ever since the revelation of Huangfu Ruiling’s identity, he anticipated that his father would change his stance sooner or later. However, the speed of this change took him by surprise.

Despite being his father, he found this approach somewhat shameless.

“Father, do you believe we can still acknowledge this daughter?” A wry smile appeared on Ye Hongxuan’s face. “It was already awkward before, and you swore not to let Leng’an return to the Ye family. Now…”

Although he left his sentence unfinished, the implication was evident.

Ye Yikun’s expression turned grim, unsure of what to say.

Had it not been for the confirmation that Huangfu Ruiling was the head of the Huangfu family, he wouldn’t have considered allowing Ye Leng’an to return to the Ye family. The Huangfu family’s dominance made allying with them immensely advantageous for the Ye family.

However, their past strained relationship prevented him from easily setting aside his pride. He had initially planned to use the engagement ceremony as an opportunity to mend relations, but the Huangfu family unexpectedly omitted an invitation.

After a prolonged silence, Ye Yikun shifted the topic. “How is Wanwan doing?”

“Everything else is fine, but her dantian was crippled,” Ye Hongxuan said with a hint of helplessness. “We’ve tried various pills, but there’s still no way to repair it. If we want Wanwan’s dantian to recover to its previous state, it’s likely only achievable through Nine Nether Night Cloud.”

“Nine Nether Night Cloud?” Ye Yikun frowned. “It might be quicker to restart cultivation.”

The Nine Nether Night Cloud was nearly extinct, and even if they obtained it, giving it to Ye Wanwan, who wasn’t of the Ye bloodline, was improbable. Such a precious plant would undoubtedly become the Ye family’s treasure.

“Therefore, we must quickly nurture Wanwan’s body and then guide her back to cultivation.” Ye Hongxuan sighed and continued, “However, her injuries this time are severe, so she’ll likely need an extended period of recovery before resuming cultivation.”

“Then expedite the process,” Ye Yikun urged. “Furthermore, the fact that Wanwan lost her cultivation must remain confidential. Especially with the Murong family; not a hint of this can leak.”

With the Ye family and Huangfu family at odds, preserving the engagement with the Murong family was crucial. If the Murong family learned of Wanwan’s diminished cultivation, they might call off the engagement.

Even if Murong Xingrui adored Ye Wanwan, the cunning Master Murong would never let his most beloved son marry a crippled woman.

Therefore, this matter needed to stay under wraps until a solution was found. They had to devise a plan to initiate Wanwan’s cultivation promptly, enabling her to recover to her previous level.

“Only a few family physicians are aware of this matter,” Ye Hongxuan assured. “However, even if Wanwan resumes cultivation, rumors might still circulate, considering her lengthy recovery.”

“After Wanwan begins cultivating again, have her directly consume pills to elevate her cultivation,” Ye Yikun decisively concluded. “This way, her recovery will be expedited.”
