Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Yikun maintained an unchanged expression as he observed Ye Wanwan’s somewhat disheveled appearance in the evening. After leisurely sipping his tea, he finally spoke, “I heard that Murong Xingrui came to see you today. Is that correct?”

“Yes.”

Hearing his sudden question, Ye Wanwan shivered momentarily but quickly regained her composure and replied, “Grandfather, I have temporarily pacified Murong Xingrui. He shouldn’t have any thoughts of breaking off the engagement now.”

“Temporarily? Shouldn’t?” Ye Yikun’s sharp gaze pierced Ye Wanwan, “I instructed you to find a solution to this matter promptly, and this is your approach?”

Upon hearing the cold tone, Ye Wanwan’s pupils involuntarily contracted. She bowed her head, offering no excuses, and promptly admitted, “I apologize, Grandfather. I didn’t handle it with enough care. I will ensure the Murong family doesn’t call off the marriage.”

“Wanwan, haven’t I spoken to you about this before? I asked you to find a way to marry Murong Xingrui as soon as possible.” Ye Yikun’s aged voice echoed again. “Only when everything is settled will there be no room for change.”

A flicker passed through Ye Wanwan’s heart. She replied, “Grandfather, I am working on a solution. However, it seems that the Murong family isn’t planning to proceed with the wedding so soon.”

She had previously tested Murong Xingrui on this matter, but the results were unsatisfactory. Moreover, she dared not broach the topic of marriage first, fearing suspicion. After all, her age was apparent. In the Hidden World, getting married in one’s thirties or forties was rare. Furthermore, she was only in her teens.

Her background was almost exposed to the sunlight now. Although the Ye family hadn’t issued a statement, everyone who needed to know was already aware. Even if she proposed marriage to Murong Xingrui now, the Murong family wouldn’t readily agree. They might even suspect that her status was shaky, leading to a desire to marry quickly. Moreover, it might even prompt the Murong family to consider breaking off the engagement.

“Strategies are devised by people.” Ye Yikun lifted his head, glancing at Ye Wanwan before continuing, “Wanwan, I’ve watched you grow up, and our Ye family has invested considerable effort in nurturing you. You must not be inferior to Ye Leng’an. She managed to capture Huangfu Ruiling’s heart. Can’t you capture Murong Xingrui’s? Do you truly believe you’re inferior to her?”

At this, Ye Wanwan’s expression became somewhat agitated. Her voice rose several degrees. “Grandfather, I will find a way to convince Murong Xingrui to agree to marry as soon as possible. I will prove to you that I am much stronger than Ye Leng’an.”

Though she knew her grandfather was provoking her, she couldn’t help but take the bait. She understood well that in her grandfather’s eyes, people were divided into useful and useless. If she couldn’t demonstrate her value, she might be discarded.

Her ability to remain in the Ye family rested largely on her grandfather. If even he abandoned her, she would truly have nothing left.

Furthermore, she wouldn’t allow herself to be inferior to Ye Leng’an. She would show everyone, including her parents, that only she was fit to be the Ye family’s young lady.

Ye Yikun nodded in satisfaction at Ye Wanwan’s competitive spirit. “Wanwan, I’ve raised you, so you should understand my temperament well. Don’t waste the effort I’ve put into you. Otherwise, when I decide to retract it, I’m sure you know what the consequences will be.”

“Rest assured, Grandfather.” Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but shiver. She quickly reassured him, “I won’t disappoint you.”

“Very well.” Ye Yikun nodded, then continued, “Also, remember to diligently practice the cultivation method I taught you. You’re aware that the Elite Competition in the Hidden World is about to commence. If you want to change others’ perceptions of you, this is the perfect opportunity.”

This Elite Competition differed from the previous Family Competition. Anyone could sign up, and even if they didn’t, they could still accept challenges.

However, not everyone had to accept challenges. The challenger had to present a bargaining chip that would entice the challenged party to accept.

Before the challenge, both sides would agree on the stakes. It could be treasures, spirit weapons, pills, or even conditions.

The winner of the Elite Competition would receive a prize from the Enforcement Team. The nature of these prizes varied each time, but they were undoubtedly valuable.

At the mention of the Elite Competition, Ye Wanwan’s eyebrows twitched, and a gleam flashed in her eyes. Her spirits lifted. “Grandfather, in the days to come, I promise to practice the cultivation method diligently and strive to advance to the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage as soon as possible.”

She was currently in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage. With continued effort in her cultivation, she should be able to reach the mid-stage before the Elite Competition. Once there, she’d be confident of winning first place.

At that point, no one would dare to look down on her, whether she belonged to the Ye family by blood or not. After all, in the cultivation world, strength was paramount.

But… Thinking of her injuries, she couldn’t help but harbor some resentment towards Ye Leng’an. Her injuries were currently hindering her cultivation.

Seemingly aware of Ye Wanwan’s thoughts, Ye Yikun waved his hand, summoning a small wooden box onto the table.

“These are healing pills,” Ye Yikun explained. “Take one each day. In five days, your injuries will be completely healed.”

Ye Wanwan picked up the wooden box and opened it, revealing five round pills tinged with a hint of red. The pills emitted a strong, somewhat eerie, bloody scent, giving off an unsettling aura.

Upon seeing the pills in the box, Ye Wanwan’s eyes glittered with an unknown light. She was far from afraid; if anything, she was excited. She had witnessed the potency of those medicinal pills before.
