Peerless Beauty: Picking Up a Beast as My Husband

Chapter 18 Like uncle, like nephew

Holding the pills, Ye Huasheng returned to the cave, pried open the mouths of the two people, and stuffed the pills into their mouths. The pills worked quickly; after entering their mouths, spiritual energy instantly returned to their bodies, and they slowly opened their eyes. Their internal injuries were healed, but their spiritual energy would take a while to recover.

The two opened their eyes groggily and saw Ye Huasheng standing peacefully in front of them.

"Feng Hua, it's so good that you're alright." The two said in unison. The image of Feng Hua being choked was still vivid in their minds. They only regretted that they were not strong enough and could only watch helplessly as their friend was bullied.

However, they had witnessed Feng Hua manipulating the flames in the ruins, as well as that unidentified divine beast. Feng Hua's identity seemed to be more than just a simple person.

Before Ye Huasheng could speak, Su Fengyang interjected:

"Feng Hua, since I, Su Fengyang, have decided to be your friend, no matter what your future identity is, I will stand by your side. You can tell me your secret if you want." Su Fengyang, as expected of the heir of a great family, was insightful.

Although Yun Che was simple-minded, he also chimed in:

"Me too, Feng Hua." These two people actually trusted her so much.

“Feng Yang, Xiao Che, my background is very complicated and even involves the Upper Realm. My enemies are too powerful. The less you know, the better. When I have enough power to protect you, I will naturally tell you. But I also want to make my position clear: I will not join the four major families, especially the Ye family, who have a grudge against me.”

Upon hearing this, the two were initially alarmed. The Upper Realm had always been a place they could only look forward to but could never reach. How terrifying must the enemies there be? However, the two did not back down. Since they had become friends who would share life and death, they had nothing to fear, not even the heavens.

Then, after hearing Ye Huasheng say that he had a grudge against the Ye family, it must be because of those despicable and shameless people from the second branch of the Ye family. The two of them also felt that someone like Feng Hua should not be bound by the so-called family.

“Feng Hua, you don’t like the four major families, but you can try to go to the strongest academy in our main city, Holy City. The strongest academy is the number one academy in Holy City. It is an independent entity that recruits students from all Holy Spirit level every year. As long as you pass the test, you can enter smoothly.”

"Academy? The strongest? Who came up with such a casual name for the academy?"

"Hey, Feng Hua, you're focusing on the wrong thing. Let me finish. The important thing is that if you get into the strongest academy, they won't interfere with you outside the academy for the next four years. But as long as you're within the academy's territory, the strongest academy will protect you, and no one can touch you!"

"How can an academy be so powerful?" Ye Huasheng was also surprised. The four major families plus the Holy City royal family could actually allow such a force to exist under their noses.

"The strongest academy has a four-year curriculum with teachers. After graduation, students can leave on their own. Those who leave the academy and return to their families are also a help. However, if they go to the Spirit Sect, they can choose not to return to their families and stay in the academy. The academy will take on missions every year, and there will be a share of the profits if the missions are completed. So there is no need to worry about not making money. The academy will also provide free training grounds, pills, spiritual treasures, and elemental skills that can only be used by the Spirit Sect for those who perform well in completing missions."

Then Su Fengyang's expression changed, and a longing flashed in his eyes.

"Most importantly, the strongest academy has a founding elder who is also the only Spirit Venerable expert on the entire Haotian Continent."

"If the four major families and the royal family want to make a move, they'll have to see if this Spirit Venerable will allow it!" Upon hearing this, even Ye Huasheng's eyes showed shock.

The only Spirit Lord on this continent—if one could receive even a little guidance from him, it would be immensely beneficial.

"When will the strongest academy start recruiting students?" Ye Huasheng asked.

"There is still more than a month to go. At that time, not only the strongest academy, but all the academies in the Holy City will be recruiting students."

"Oh, then that's enough time."

"Feng Hua, will you go?" Su Fengyang asked excitedly.

"In such a prosperous era, I will naturally go."

"Feng Hua, I've been away from my family for quite some time now, and I've also spent some time in the ruins. I'm afraid I have to return to my family first. I'll be waiting for you in the main city, and I wish you great success this month, that your name will resound throughout the land." Su Fengyang knew that Ye Huasheng was no ordinary person. Given time, he would shine as brightly as his name suggests. He had only offered his wishes, but he never expected that when they met again, Ye Huasheng would already be famous throughout the continent.

"Alright, then we'll meet again in the Holy City!" The two extended their hands and gave each other a quick, synchronized tap.

Then Su Fengyang summoned Jinze and disappeared into the distance.

His eyes gleamed with determination, as if he had made a huge decision in his heart: Feng Hua, since your enemies are powerful, then I will become stronger than them.

As Yun Che watched Su Fengyang's departing figure, he silently made a decision.

"By the way, Yun Che, where do you live? I'll take you home." Yun Che is such a simple-minded guy, she really doesn't feel comfortable letting him walk on his own. But his personality is quite similar to that silly alchemist outside.

"Feng Hua, my home is in Yanze City."

“Alright, I’ll take you back. I also need to go to Yanze City to see the legendary siege by spirit beasts. I’ll take you outside. A silly alchemist just came by. Let’s bring him into the city too; it’s safe there.”

Yun Che followed quietly behind Ye Huasheng, his heart filled with joy: Great, I can be with Feng Hua again. Feng Hua, don't worry, I will keep your secret that you are a woman.

Outside the cave, the alchemist held the azure flower in his hand, examining it again and again as if it were a priceless treasure, as if he were looking at an unparalleled beauty rather than a flower.

Upon seeing Ye Huasheng emerge, he eagerly looked over, then spotted the figure behind Ye Huasheng. His eyes lit up with joy, and he pointed at Yun Che, shouting loudly:

"Nephew, what are you doing here? Your uncle has been looking for you for days, and he's still throwing a tantrum in the city!"

Yun Che: "Second...uncle." So the silly alchemist Feng Hua mentioned earlier was his second uncle, Yun Churong...

Ye Huasheng felt somewhat embarrassed watching the scene of the two getting to know each other. So, had she just said that his uncle was stupid in front of his nephew? Why was everything so coincidental? Could it be that this was a gene of the Yun family?

Yun Che seemed to see through Ye Huasheng's thoughts and said with a smile:

"Feng Hua, your second uncle won't mind."

Afterwards, Yun Che briefly explained what had happened.

Then he saw a strange look on Ye Churong's face. He hesitated for a long time before handing the Azure Grass to Ye Huasheng, almost pushing her over.

Then, with a pained expression, he said:

"Since it's for treating my nephew's injuries, the medicine is free, and I'll return the flower to you." He said this, but his eyes were still fixed on the blue flower.

Ye Huasheng couldn't help but find it amusing. You want to return the things? Don't you even look at your expression?

She waved her hand:

"Since we're family, I'll give you these flowers. I have plenty more." Ye Huasheng spoke arrogantly with an innocent demeanor, while Yun Churong only heard the sentence: "I have plenty more."

He immediately became excited and tried to pounce on Ye Huasheng.

Yun Che quickly stepped between the two, emphasizing that men and women should not touch each other, and even if he was her second uncle, he should not touch Feng Hua.

"Second Uncle, watch your manners."

"Sorry, I got too excited. Brother Feng Hua, no, Brother Feng Hua, do you need a personal alchemist? I, Yun Churong, will follow you from now on and refine pills just for you."

"No need." The enemy is already powerful enough; does she really want to bring him along as well?

"Brother, think about it! I can not only refine pills, but also do laundry, cook, and clean."

Ye Huasheng: "???" Unable to resist her persistent pleading, she had no choice but to speak.

"I'll think about it and give you an answer after the spirit beasts besiege the city. Let's go back to Yanze City first."

"Okay, big brother."

"Could you please stop calling me 'big brother'? I'm not even as old as Xiao Che."

"Brother, let's each talk about our own things."

Ye Huasheng: "..."

Yun Che: "..." This simp is definitely not his second uncle.
