Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Ye Yu walked to a secluded spot in the Zhao family's back garden and sat cross-legged on a rock.

She didn't use spirit stones to restore her spiritual power, and since there was no rush, there was no need to waste spirit stones.

She planned to wait until her cultivation surpassed that of the monsters in the Heavenly Pool before going inside to take a look and collect the remaining spirit stones.

As darkness fell, Ye Yu sensed someone approaching her and awoke from her cultivation.

Upon closer inspection, the visitor was Zhao Yuxuan.

Ye Yu sat cross-legged on the rock without moving. Only when Zhao Yuxuan approached did she ask, "Looking for me?"

Zhao Yuxuan stared intently at Ye Yu and nodded: "Let me see if you're alright."

Ye Yu stretched, outlining her graceful curves. Zhao Yuxuan looked away slightly and said, "But judging from your appearance, you should be fine."

"What could possibly be wrong with me? It was just a little internal energy expenditure. Thank you for your concern."

Zhao Yuxuan shook her head: "It's only right that I care about you."

He turned his gaze back to Ye Yu: "Can I ask you a question?"

Ye Yu looked directly into his eyes with a half-smile: "Last time at the Ding family's house, you asked me a question, and I didn't answer it. But now, since we're relatives, I can answer your question."

Zhao Yuxuan frowned slightly upon hearing the word "relatives," but he still asked, "Yesterday at Tiger Tail Gate, you took that person from the Hidden Gate into a room for questioning. Did you find out anything?"

Ye Yu was somewhat surprised: "Are you curious?"

"Yes, I don't understand. Your master is clearly a member of the Hidden Sect, so why don't you ask him instead of that other person? Unless you..."

Zhao Yuxuan didn't say the rest.

Ye Yu knew that people might have some doubts because her master had never appeared, and she herself had shown curiosity about the Hidden Sect.

She smiled casually and said, "I don't see my master often. I just happened to run into someone from the Hidden Sect this time, so I can interrogate them. Is that what you wanted to ask?"

Zhao Yuxuan shook his head: "I also want to know where the Hidden Gate is? Even my grandfather knows very little about it. I want to go in and see if it's really as powerful as the rumors say."

Ye Yu didn't expect that Zhao Yuxuan also wanted to join Qianmen, but then she thought that anyone who knew there was a more profound martial arts sect would want to go to this bigger platform.

She didn't hide anything and told Zhao Yuxuan what she knew about the location of the secret gate and how to get in and out.

Zhao Yuxuan frowned when he heard Ye Yu say that a card was required to enter.

Ye Yu thought to herself: Zhao Yuxuan will be the head of the Zhao family sooner or later. If he can rise to a higher position, it will actually be safer for Zhao Jing.

She said, "I plan to go to Qianmen in a few days. After I find out what's going on inside, I'll find an opportunity to bring you in."

Zhao Yuxuan felt a sense of helplessness. In the past, everyone always praised him as a prodigy and a martial arts genius. Although he didn't really think so, deep down he also felt that he wasn't that bad.

But after Ye Yu appeared, the sense of loss in his heart grew larger and larger. He thought he could keep up with Ye Yu, but he didn't expect that he had fallen far behind Ye Yu.

He said, "Thank you very much. You always give people a very mysterious feeling. When you fight with someone, you become stronger when you encounter a strong opponent, and you have never lost, which makes people feel a little frustrated for no reason."

Ye Yu smiled and said, "It's just a matter of personal opportunity. As long as one's Dao heart is firm, why worry about not achieving one's goal?"

Zhao Yuxuan fell silent upon hearing Ye Yu's words, seemingly lost in thought.

Just then, a servant from the Zhao family approached and called out to the two, "Young Master, Miss Ye Yu, it's time to go to the dining room for dinner."

Ye Yu jumped off the rock and said, "Let's go eat."

Zhao Yuxuan followed Ye Yu towards the restaurant.

For several days in a row, Ye Yu used the same method to detoxify Old Master Wu. By the fifth day, the toxins in his body had been completely cleared.

At this moment, Old Master Wu's face was rosy, and his voice was no longer as weak and hoarse as before. Instead, he spoke to Ye Yu in a loud and clear voice, just like Zhao Shanyuan, saying, "Young friend Ye Yu, you saved this old man's life. If you need anything in the future, just let the Wu family know, and we will definitely do it."

Ye Yu took a sip of tea and smiled, "Mr. Wu, you're too kind. You and my uncle have been friends for many years, and the Wu family contributed a lot to eliminating the Tiger Tail Sect. It's only right and proper for us to save you."

"Well, that's true, but favors owed must be repaid."

He looked at Ye Yu and Zhao Jing and asked, "I wonder if young friend Ye Yu has a boyfriend? My grandson, to say nothing of anything else, is someone who listens to his wife. If you don't have a boyfriend yet, why don't you come to my house and pick one out?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yuxuan, who was sitting next to Zhao Shanyuan, clenched her hands tightly, waiting for Ye Yu's reply.

Ye Yu almost spat out her tea and quickly refused, "Mr. Wu, I'm still young. I won't consider this for now."

After saying that, she immediately looked at Zhao Jing, afraid that her mother would also think that she should find a boyfriend.

Zhao Jing smiled politely and said, "Old Wu, Xiaoyu is still studying. She not only has to practice martial arts, but also has a heavy workload at Peking University. We can't consider this issue for the time being."

Grandpa Wu said, "That won't affect anything. Let Xiaoyu come to my house as a guest and choose carefully. It's fine if we don't get married for now."

Goodness, even the way they address each other has changed.

Zhao Shanyuan cursed Old Master Wu in his heart for being such a cunning old fox, actually trying to trick Ye Yu into coming to his house. His abacus beads were practically hitting his face.

But she smiled and said, "Old Wu, you're too impatient. Young people these days value free love. Feelings develop naturally, either unintentionally or after spending a lot of time together. When the time is right, you'll naturally be together."

Grandpa Wu knew that saying too much would easily cause resentment, so he stopped talking and simply invited Ye Yu to visit his Wu family whenever she had time.

Ye Yu gave a perfunctory answer.

Now that Old Master Wu's poison has been cured, the Wu family should take their leave.

After seeing them off, Zhao Shanyuan returned to the living room, where Ye Yu also bid him farewell.

“Uncle, we’ve been away for so long and no one has been taking care of the family business. The Tiger Tail Gate matter has been resolved, and my mother and the others have no worries. It’s time to go back and take care of things at home.”

Zhao Shanyuan also knew that Ye Yu's family had established a company, which was now in its early stages and indeed needed people to run it.

He didn't try to stop him: "Alright, after being away for so many days, it's time to go back and take care of things."

Then, looking at Ye Yu, he asked, "And you? That day you took the people from the Hidden Sect to a room alone for questioning. Were you planning to join the Hidden Sect?"

Ye Yu knew that this matter could not be kept from everyone, so she nodded and said, "I will send my mother and the others back to Zhang City, and then go to Shenxianjia to see just how powerful the Qianmen is."

Moreover, according to what the Taoist robe man said that day, he received the mission together with his senior brother. If his senior brother found that the Taoist robe man had not returned for a long time, he would definitely come out to look for him.

If he finds out that the man in the Taoist robe was murdered, his first suspect will be Ye Yu, which will cause a lot of trouble.

Zhao Shanyuan nodded: "Once you enter the hidden gate, we won't be able to help you, so you can only be extra careful."

Ye Yu knew that Zhao Shanyuan was genuinely worried about her, so she comforted him, "Don't worry, I never do anything I'm not sure of. Once I've figured out the situation inside Qianmen, I'll bring the Zhao family members in as well."

Zhao Shanyuan was naturally delighted to hear this and laughed heartily, "Don't worry, we'll send someone to take care of your family."

After talking for a while, Zhao Yuxuan personally drove Ye Yu and the other two to the airport.

Just before boarding, Ye Yu said to Zhao Yuxuan, "Wait for my news."

Zhao Yuxuan nodded and watched Ye Yu and the other two leave until they were out of sight.
