The divine beast recognized its master, and the dragon girl, destined to kill him, went to the spiri

"What? What scandal? Tell me quickly."

"Didn't the current head of the Lin family, Lin Wu, always boast about doting on his wife, aside from his wife Bai Yueguang? Then a few days ago, an illegitimate daughter suddenly appeared, and Lin Wu seemed to love this illegitimate daughter very much. I think her name is An."

"What? Is this true? Aren't those two sisters from the Lin family causing chaos? Oh, and then there's Lin Wu's tigress wife. The Lin family must be in chaos right now. No wonder Senior Sister Lin hasn't come to the freshman assessment since the first round."

"Tsk tsk, who says it isn't true? I have a friend who works as a guard in the Lin family. He saw the illegitimate daughter with his own eyes. The Lin family is in turmoil right now. However, I heard from my friend that the illegitimate daughter is quite pretty, at least much prettier than the two sisters in the Lin family."

"Yeah?!"

An illegitimate daughter from the Lin family?

Ye Wanqing's brows furrowed slightly. Was it Qi Huan? Oh no, to be more precise, it should be Wen Anqin. It seemed she had already arrived in the Heavenly Spirit Realm, and had even returned to the Lin family.

As for the Lin family, perhaps we can start with Wen Anqin.

On the square, a group of academy disciples dressed in moon-white academy robes appeared, led by Yan Ze. He was holding a book in his hand, his expression indifferent and distant. However, when he saw Ye Wanqing, his eyes paused slightly and moved away calmly.

Yan Ze glanced at Bai Zhou beside him, and Bai Zhou nodded slightly.

"Quietly, everyone. I am Bai Zhou, the chief disciple of the Second Elder of Tianling Academy. First of all, congratulations on passing the freshman competition and becoming new disciples of Tianling Academy. I would also like to add that in three days, you will have a new companion to participate in the freshman trial with you."

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion on the field.

"No way, what Senior Brother Bai Zhou said, doesn't this mean there's another person with connections? This is really unfair."

"That's right. The Young Palace Master of Yunchi Palace is fine, and her two little followers, Wanye and Jiang Xu, are fine too. But why did this person with connections suddenly appear? If I had known that connections were useful, I would have used them too, saving me from going through so much trouble."

Listening to the discussions of the people below, Bai Zhou's eyes did not change, but the pressure of the divine realm was pressed down on the entire square, and his voice was awe-inspiring and majestic.

"This is the order of the dean. If you have any objections, you may withdraw. We at Tianling Academy will definitely not keep you."

In an instant, the comments that were just about to be made stopped.

Bai Zhou glanced at everyone, then turned back to look at Yan Ze, "Brother, please."

"Yes." Yan Ze took a step forward and opened the book in his hand. "Now let's start announcing the list of the academy's disciples. Zhang San, the disciple of the Fifth Elder, Li Si, the disciple of the Fourth Elder... Yun Qingluo, the disciple of the Third Elder, Jiang Xu, the disciple of the Second Elder, and Wang Wu, the disciple of the Fifth Elder."

"Jun Lin, the disciple of the Second Elder. Wan Ye, the disciple of the First Elder. All the disciples whose names were not read out are considered outer disciples. All new disciples, please go and report to your own master."

After saying this, Yan Ze walked up to Ye Wanqing without hesitation, his eyes expression unchanged. "Wanye, come with me to report to Master."

"Yes."

Jiang Xu's eyes were a little strange, as if he was somewhat unwilling to accept this arrangement. Why was he separated from his master? "Master... Wanye, what should we do then?"

Ye Wanqing's expression remained unchanged. "What else can I do? Didn't you ask me to plead with the Young Palace Master? I've already brought you in, why don't you just learn something honestly?"

Jiang Xu received Ye Wanqing's strange look, not knowing what he was thinking about. In the end, he said nothing and nodded slightly.

When Yan Ze announced that Wan Ye was a disciple of the Great Elder, not only the new disciples, but even the chief disciples of the elders behind Yan Ze looked at each other in shock, but in front of Yan Ze, they forced themselves not to speak.

After Yan Ze took Ye Wanqing away, all the chief disciples rushed over, each with a look of shock and confusion on their faces.

"Brother Bai, what on earth is going on? The Great Elder actually accepted a disciple? Did I hear correctly? The Great Elder actually accepted a new disciple as his disciple?"

"Yes, yes. Ever since the Great Elder accepted Senior Brother as his chief disciple ten years ago, he hasn't accepted any other disciples. Why is he suddenly accepting a disciple now? Is there something hidden? Could it be that Wan Ye's identity and background are extremely special? Even more special than Yun Qingluo?"

"Wait a minute, Senior Brother Bai, listen to me first. Senior Brother has always been cold-hearted and you're the only one who has a close relationship with him. What's going on here? You should know something about it."

After all, there are rumors that the real strength of the Tianling Academy's Grand Elder is stronger than that of the Academy's Dean, so they are naturally very concerned about the Grand Elder's sudden acceptance of a disciple.

"Okay, okay, stop." Bai Zhou pinched his eyebrows and just waved his hand in the face of everyone's puzzled eyes.

"I don't know about this either. Don't ask me. I'm also confused. You all know that my eldest brother has a cold personality. How could he possibly tell me these things?"

The chief disciple of the Third Elder was a cute little girl who was an alchemist. Her cheeks were slightly red at the moment.

"Hmm... Senior Brother Bai's words make sense. After all, we all know that, with the exception of the Great Elder and the former Holy Maiden of the Temple, everyone else is the same in front of Senior Brother, even the Dean and the Patriarch of the Yan Family."

"But I'm still quite curious. Hehe, Senior Brother Bai, you're so kind and so good-looking, why don't you go and ask for us?"

Bai Zhou's mouth twitched slightly, and he held his forehead, but his eyes were filled with doting, "You guys..."

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Bai, we are also very curious. You have such a good relationship with the eldest brother. Go and ask him, and the eldest brother will definitely tell you."

At the same time, on the other side

In an extremely quiet courtyard, ancient trees stand tall, green bamboos sway gently, and a pool of clear water flows leisurely. Amidst the shimmering waves, it seems that several spirit fish can be seen jumping in the water.

Every step brought a new scene, and each scene seemed just right. Ye Wanqing's eyes flickered slightly, and a strange look flashed in her eyes, because she discovered that behind every beautiful scene, the Bagua formation was hidden in it.

Deep in the bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves rustle where the wind blows.

In a house separated by two bamboo fences sat an old man in a moon-white Taoist robe. Against the backdrop of the misty fog in the bamboo forest, he seemed impossible to see through.

Yan Ze leaned slightly towards the old man and bowed, "Master."

The old man in front of him closed his eyes and waved his hand slightly after hearing Yan Ze's words, "Ze'er, go to the bamboo forest and wait for the master first."

"Yes, Master."

After Yan Ze left, Ye Wanqing immediately returned to her normal appearance and bowed to Yuan Gui, "Ye Wanqing greets Elder Yuan Gui."

At this moment, a force unusually gentle lifted Ye Wanqing's body. Yuan Gui slowly opened his eyes, his expression filled with gentleness. "You're welcome, young friend. It's been a long time since we last met."
