Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

In the evening, the Jingjia Manor in the new urban area was unusually lively.

The luxurious estate, located halfway up the mountain, was brightly lit and dazzling in the gradually darkening night.

Inside the magnificent hall, delicious dishes were laid out, their aroma filling the air.

To celebrate Li Yelai becoming the ninth generation champion.

The three branches of the Jing family spared no expense to decorate the entire manor with dazzling lights, creating a stark contrast with the gradually darkening night.

After all, the relationship between the ninth-generation champion and the Jing family was a well-known secret among the officials.

Within the Celestial Palace, Li Yelai passed through a barrier accessible only to members of the Jing family, rescuing the besieged Jing family members.

Many people speculate that Li Yelai's mother might be the Jing family's daughter who eloped with a scavenger back then.

Now that Li Yelai has become the ninth generation champion, the Jing family naturally wants to promote him.

Even if Li Yelai doesn't intend to acknowledge his relatives, the blood of the Jing family flows in his veins, which is a rare honor for the Jing family!

Especially those members of the three lineages, theoretically, they all have some degree of blood relation to Li Yelai. It's just a matter of how close or distant the relationship is.

The fact that a blood relative became the champion made them extremely excited and proud.

Of course, the attitudes of the other factions were more complicated.

In particular, Jing Jing and others had harbored malice towards Li Yelai.

They believed that the departure of his mother, Jing Lian, was the reason the divine child could not be born for so long. The Jing family lost a powerful trump card. Humanity also lost a future ruler.

He also held Li Yelai and Li Yunyan, who were spiritualists who had never received family inheritance, in utter contempt, regarding them as useless.

Then came the much-anticipated face-slapping scene.

Li Yelai grew up step by step right under their noses.

When he became a night watchman, Jing Jing and others gradually paid more attention to him, believing that if he gained more glory and status, it wouldn't be impossible for him to be recognized as a member of the clan.

Just as they were about to become elite Night Scouts, they realized that their perspective might be flawed. They also concluded that Li Yelai's achievements had reached their limit and planned to take Li Yunyan away, making her the new mother of divine blood.

When Li Yelai became the champion's agent, they had some regrets, but still chose to invest in Ye Han.

When Li Yelai rescued them casually in the Immortal Palace, they were left with only embarrassment and helplessness.

Now, Li Yelai has become the champion.
The members of the three factions, in particular, liked to mention Li Yelai in front of them, using it to severely criticize them. So much so that they were too embarrassed to even attend banquets.

If they hadn't been hostile towards Li Yelai from the start, their relationship might have been much closer.

At that time, Li Yelai was only a level 3 psychic, and was still very weak.

If the family lends a helping hand, it would be a timely help in need.

Now that they've become champions, even the former leader of the Valiant Banner faction wouldn't dare offend them. Trying to curry favor now is too late!

If it weren't for the good relationship between Jing Lin and his sister and Li Yelai, this banquet wouldn't have been possible.

Meanwhile, as the banquet began, some powerful officials and psionic families who were on good terms with Li Yelai also came to attend.

The Ma family, where Ma Hongyi belongs, the Mo family, where Mo He belongs, and the Hong and Huo families in Lava Mine City all have good relationships with Li Yelai.

Originally, they had gathered their family's elite forces and planned to go to Wanlong Lake to challenge the Land of Inheritance.

However, considering that Li Yelai had become the champion, they took a detour to Border City No. 3 to celebrate the human champion's victory.

Jing Lin also invited them, hoping to have a chat.

Of course, Jing Lin, unsurprisingly, opened the betting pool for them.

So when Li Yelai drove over, he noticed that the atmosphere around him seemed a bit strange.

"What's wrong, everyone?" Li Yelai asked as he got out of the car.

"It's nothing, I was just waiting for you," Jing Lin said with a smile.

At the same time, everyone else saw it too.

Dolls and cheese step off the car.

The doll wore a black long dress and a black trench coat. Her ethereal beauty was even more striking in the night. The gazes of the crowd made her somewhat nervous; it was hard to imagine that in the other two timelines, she was a terrifying empress. Meanwhile, Cheese wore a dark red evening gown and a fitted cashmere coat. Her short, neat hair and delicate features made her appear even more beautiful.

She seemed to sense what everyone was thinking, and compared to the somewhat nervous doll, she was much more at ease.

And among them was Li Yunyan.

She was dressed casually in winter clothes, with one arm around a girl. She had two girls on either side of her, a sight to behold.

Their beauty naturally amazed everyone. But the fact that they got out of the same car without any confrontation left everyone greatly disappointed.

'Why didn't a fight break out?'

'Rivers of blood?'

'Did I lose the bet again?'

Some people who wanted to watch the show were thinking to themselves.

When Little Mad King also appeared at the banquet, everyone clearly noticed that the expressions of Doll and Cheese had changed.

What is that? Jealousy? Targeting? Or hostility?

This excited many people.

I thought to myself, "Jing Lin really knows how to do things! This time, there's bound to be a bloodbath, right?"
In fact, Little Mad King was caught in the crossfire.

Her curse will cause outsiders to distrust and doubt her.

Because she had worked with Li Yelai and spent some time alone with him.

Under the influence of the curse, people misunderstood her.

Little Mad King didn't care about this because of the curse.

She's been suspected far too many times. Every time she walks out of the alley, people suspect she's involved in some illicit profession.

A conversation with a male colleague almost led to a misunderstanding by his wife.

Even if she explained, no one would believe her; she was already numb to these rumors and gossip. She was indifferent to them.

This once again disappointed the people who were having fun, as nothing happened.

Jing Lin had specially arranged for the three of them to sit together with Li Yelai, but there were no changes.

This made Jing Lin, who was already prepared to stir up trouble, mentally complain wildly.

'That's not right, how could that be?'

'Cheese, you were out there farming in the jungle, and your base kept getting raided. Why didn't you say anything?'

'The doll, your most feared adversary, is back. Aren't you worried?'

'Little Mad King, you and Old Li have been alone together for two months, and really nothing happened? Give me some kind of indication! Hey!'

"You guys should start fighting!"

Therefore, Jing Lin decided to use some methods.

Jing Ji, also known as Jing Lin's grandfather, is Li Yelai's maternal grandfather by blood.

The leader of the three factions watched Li Yelai from a corner of the hall, feeling a mixture of satisfaction and pride. But perhaps thinking of his daughter, he didn't reveal himself rashly. He merely raised a glass to Li Yelai from afar.

At that moment, Jing Lin approached him and said, "Grandpa, aren't you going to do something?"

"Me? What do I mean?" Jing Ji asked, puzzled. "Why should I join in on your young people's gathering?"

"Ahem, what I mean is," Jing Lin paused, "your grandson brought his wife to visit, and you didn't even give them a red envelope?"

After thinking for a moment, Jing Ji nodded: "That's right, I'll go prepare a big red envelope."

"One?" Jing Lin chuckled. "You'll get three!"

He's quite the expert at stirring up trouble. Today, he's determined to see rivers of blood flow! (End of Chapter)
