Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Sensing that Ye Lengans mood was off, Huangfu Ruiling sat up straight, his tone losing its earlier relaxation. Has something happened?

Ye Lengan didnt hold back and disclosed everything about Yuan Silei to Huangfu Ruiling. Only then did she continue, Ye Wanwans actions should be forbidden, right?

Exactly. Huangfu Ruilings tone carried a hint of caution. Her current conduct blatantly violates the rules of the Hidden World. The most crucial rule is not to casually interact with the mortal world and, more importantly, not to harm ordinary people in the mortal world without reason.

Thats why I want to go to the Hidden World as soon as possible, Ye Lengan said. If her ident.i.ty is exposed, she should, at least, restrain herself.

Then Ill make arrangements. Ill go over in two days. Huangfu Ruiling decided after a moment of contemplation. Regarding Ye Wanwans situation,

Ill have the Enforcement Team issue a warning promptly. With their intervention, she definitely wont dare to act recklessly again.

Alright. Ye Lengan nodded. Although I dont like Yuan Silei, I still find Ye Wanwans actions too arrogant.

Dont worry, Huangfu Ruiling rea.s.sured her. Yuan Silei wont face trouble because of Ye Wanwan.

Are we going to the Huangfu family this time? Ye Lengan suddenly asked. If we are, what ident.i.ty will you use?

Go as Huangfu Ruiling. Huangfu Ruiling decided after a moment of thought. If we go to the Hidden World and dont return to the family, it will seem abnormal.

Moreover, if the Grand Elder finds out, hell surely object. He practically wishes you could stay permanently in the Hidden World!

Hearing Ye Lengans words, Huangfu Ruiling couldnt help but picture the Grand Elders agitated reaction and found it amusing.

However, returning to the Huangfu family as Huangfu Ruiling, youll undoubtedly encounter Huangfu Ruixiang, Ye Lengan teased. By then, staying quiet might be a challenge for you!

In the Huangfu family, one speaks with their abilities, Huangfu Ruiling stated calmly. As long as someone has the strength, they can obtain what they desire. If they lack strength, its better for them to return to the mortal world and not waste cultivation resources.

Heartless, indeed! Ye Lengan said with a mocking tone.

At this moment, Huangfu Ruixiang, the subject of their conversation, wasnt faring well in the Huangfu family of the Hidden World. Due to Zhong Yatings matters, he couldnt concentrate on cultivation. Despite being an inner sect disciple for a considerable time, his cultivation hadnt progressed.

He sensed his teachers impatience, but due to numerous concerns, he found it challenging to focus.

Ruixiang, are you there?

As Huangfu Ruixiang remained in his room, Zhong Yatings voice echoed from outside.

Since their engagement in the mortal world, Zhong Yating a.s.serted her dominance, making everyone aware she was Huangfu Ruixiangs fiance.

Although Huangfu Ruixiang initially wanted to keep the engagement secret, he couldnt dissuade Zhong Yating, forcing him to make it public. As a result, Zhong Yating had free access to the inner sect to find Huangfu Ruixiang at will.

Reluctant to open the door, Zhong Yating continued shouting. To avoid becoming a spectacle, Huangfu Ruixiang had no choice but to rise and open the door.

Even after opening the door, his expression remained unpleasant upon seeing

Zhong Yating. Why do you come here every day? Dont you need to cultivate?

l miss you! Zhong Yating showed no shyness, ignoring Huangfu Ruixiangs cold words. She stepped forward, held his arm, and smiled. Im your fiance, of course, I have to visit you often! Otherwise, what if someone takes advantage when we least expect it!

Now engaged to Huangfu Ruixiang, she wouldnt let go of this wealthy son-in-law. After going to the mortal world, she wasnt as fixated on entering the inner sect. She even hoped to return to the mortal world with Huangfu Ruixiang and enjoy a life of luxury.

Lets go in first!

As he spoke, Huangfu Ruixiang brought Zhong Yating into the room. Some matters werent suitable for others to hear. After all, walls had ears.

Once inside, Zhong Yating immediately wanted to embrace Huangfu Ruixiang, but he pushed her away.

Zhong Yating pursed her lips and said nothing.

Zhong Yating, are you playing with me? Huangfu Ruixiang looked at her. Ive done everything you asked for. Were engaged now, and weve held an engagement ceremony. But you havent kept your promise.

Since their engagement and return to the Hidden Worlds Huangfu family, although Zhong Yating had been a.s.serting her dominance and frequently visiting him, she hadnt shared anything about Huangfu Ruiling.

Now, he began to doubt whether everything Zhong Yating said before was a lie.

Ruixiang, why are you in such a hurry? Zhong Yating wore a charming smile. Im already your fiance. Well be together through thick and thin. Do you really think I would harm you?

Then why do you keep delaying? Huangfu Ruixiangs sharp gaze focused on her. Or were you lying to me? You know nothing, and you engaged me just to deceive me?

How could that be! Zhong Yating instinctively refuted. I

If thats not the case, tell me now, Huangfu Ruixiang interrupted her. Dont beat around the bush. You promised to tell me once we were engaged.

Ruixiang, dont be anxious! l Zhong Yating tried to say something, but Huangfu Ruixiang cut her off.

Tell me now, or well cancel the engagement. Huangfu Ruixiang issued an ultimatum..
