Jiang Xu looked at Yu Junlin's sincere and loyal face, his eyes flickering slightly, then he looked again at Ye Wanqing, whose expression remained unchanged, and lowered his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

After discussing the upcoming competition with Yu Junlin, Ye Wanqing and Jiang Xu left the Yu family in secret at night and returned to the Hua family's territory.

At the same time, the Yue family

Looking at her daughter who was staring at the full moon in the night sky in a trance, Yue Huaishuang's eyes flickered with a bit of heartache, and an extremely gentle voice rang out, "Wei'er."

Yue Zhiwei came back to her senses and hid the disappointment in her eyes very well, her face remained calm.

"Mom, it's so late and you haven't rested yet. Are you worried about the competition in a few days? Mom, don't worry. With the current strength of our Yue family, although it is still a little difficult to compete with the Hua family, it should be no problem to secure second or third place."

Yue Huaishuang shook her head slightly, holding Yue Zhiwei's hand. The mother and daughter sat down together, "You don't have to hide it from me. Tell me the truth. Have you not let go of that kid Yaojin Shenque yet?"

Yue Zhiwei was a little flustered when her mother suddenly said what she was thinking, but she regained her composure after thinking about it. Thinking of that person, a bitter smile gradually appeared at the corner of her lips.

"Mom, I really can't let go of Brother Xingjian."

Yue Huaishuang stroked Yue Zhiwei's black hair with a gentle look. It was unknown what she was thinking about. She just sighed softly and said the fact that Yue Zhiwei had been trying to hide in an extremely gentle voice.

"Wei'er, it's been over ten years. Haven't you let it go yet? And you have to know that Xingjian had no such feelings for you over ten years ago. Even if he were still alive today, do you think there would be a chance for you two?"

Yue Zhiwei's expression froze, and he lowered his eyes with undisguised disappointment in them. He listened to Yue Huaishuang's words without saying a word for a long time.

"Wei'er, you are my only daughter. This huge Yue family will be handed over to you in the future. Although we have retired from the world, you should be able to see that the current situation is changing rapidly."

"Perhaps one day, we, the 'reclusive forces', will be forced to enter the world, but the women and children of the Yue family still need your protection. You must not focus too much on the love affairs of your children."

Yue Huaishuang naturally knew her daughter's feelings, and also knew that her words would definitely hurt her feelings, but based on the current situation, the sooner she woke up, the better, not only for her own sake, but also for the sake of the entire Yue family.

"Mom, I understand."

……

A dark figure disappeared into the night, moving through the valley at a ghostly speed until he reached the top of a cliff. Looking at the boundless territory belonging to the Yaojin Divine Palace, he was slightly distracted.

At the same time, within the space

Ye Wanqing was smelting the Wood Spirit, Fire Spirit, and Water Spirit. Three balls of light of different colors circled back and forth in front of her, moving so fast that only a faint afterimage of them gradually merging could be seen.

Suddenly, the three spirits sensed something and stopped spinning together. The flashing light was completely different from before.

As if sensing something strange about the three spirits, Ye Wanqing's eyes suddenly opened. The Ningyu in front of her turned into a folding fan, flashing with a cold light. She slowly raised her hand, and the Ningyu fell into her palm.

Watching the three balls of light flickering before her, Ye Wanqing's expression shifted slightly. "Have you sensed the presence of a kindred spirit?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the three spirits shone brightly.

Ye Wanqing followed the guidance in her heart, traveling through the valley and dense forests, but finally stopped in the territory of Yaojin Shenque.

Looking at the ore valley in front of him that was about to be mined out, and the formation that would summon the demons from the outer realm that was visibly about to take shape, Ye Wanqing's expression turned slightly cold. He raised his head and saw another full moon.

She had some thoughts in her mind, and when she raised her hand, the hairpin that was originally in her bun floated in the air in her palm.

In just a moment, the hairpin, under the moonlight, turned into a stream of light and disappeared. At this moment, it had silently fallen into the formation she had set up not long ago.

In this case, she wanted to see how the Hua family would summon the demons from outside the heavenly realm.

……

"Xiang Yang, Xiang Chi, I've been selected to participate in the ring competition!"

Li Hua ran into the yard with an excited look on his face. Because of the ring competition, all the helpers temporarily stopped mining.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu glanced at Ye Wanqing beside him with a strange expression. "I was just selected to participate in the competition. Why are you so excited? Besides, this isn't a good deal."

"No, no, you know what? The head of the Hua family just issued an order. If anyone voluntarily participates in the arena competition, regardless of whether we win or lose, we can be sent home early and given an additional 500 crystals."

This was the first time Li Hua was so excited since she came to the secret force to mine. During this period of time, she not only had to carefully conceal her identity as a daughter, but also had to worry about the situation at home all the time. Now that she had the opportunity to go home, she was naturally excited.

She originally thought that she would never come back from here. In this world where strength is respected, those of them with low spiritual power will naturally be bullied.

"Great, I can finally go home."

"By the way, do you want to sign up with me? Don't you have elders at home? Why not join me?"

Jiang Xugu said in embarrassment, "But my two brothers' spiritual cultivation is not as good as yours. What should we do if we are in the competition arena? Swords are blind and we can go there alive but not come back alive. Besides, they should only need forty-five people, and you can't go just because you want to. You have to go through the selection."

"No, the Hua family is being particularly humane this time. Anyone who wants to participate can do so. If you're not selected, you'll be treated as a backup and receive the same treatment as the other contestants. You can all go home!"

Ye Wanqing raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Jiang Xu beside her calmly. Jiang Xu's eyes flashed with understanding and his expression became excited.

"That's great. My brother and I will sign up too. We haven't been home for a long time, and I really miss it."
