Peerless Beauty: Picking Up a Beast as My Husband
Chapter 32 Each with their own agenda, the secrets of the continent.
Although only Ye Huasheng arrived, a storm suddenly arose in the Holy City. This was because there had never been a genius who became a Spirit Sect master at the age of sixteen. She could be called the first person in history to achieve this. The key was that this young man also had a mysterious identity and did not belong to any of the major families. If they could recruit him, he would be a great help to their families. If they could not recruit him, that would be simple. Even geniuses would inevitably suffer losses. If they could not get him, they would just kill him.
At this time, at the Ye family's main residence.
Then came the sound of a cup breaking.
"I'm so angry! That brat doesn't know what's good for him. He actually dared to offend our Ye family and the dean of the strongest academy. He's so cocky and arrogant. He's just relying on the old monster in the academy to back him up."
"That's right! Father, how dare they disregard our Ye family like this? That kid stole all the limelight today. This is a disgrace to our Ye family. Father, what should we do next? We've offended the dean today. I'm afraid I won't get good resources even if I enter the strongest academy in the future."
"That kid won't be smug for long. So what if he got accepted? The strongest academy still has an exam. Even if the dean takes a liking to him, he can't get into the strongest academy if he doesn't pass the exam. He can't break the academy's century-old rules."
"As for resources, our Ye family sends in disciples every year. They've surely paved the way for you in the academy. With everyone watching, why worry about not getting the resources you deserve? At worst, we can go to other academies. Those old men there will still give the Ye family some face. Luo Tian, don't worry, no matter where we are, your father will never let you suffer." Luo Tian, your father is getting old and his talent isn't high anymore. I have no choice but to gamble everything on you. You must live up to his expectations!
"Luo Tian, go back and rest early. There will be exams after you start school tomorrow. Prepare well and make up for the embarrassment you suffered today. As for the rest, I will take care of everything else."
"Yes, father."
"Ye Shun".
"Master, what are your orders?"
"Send our people to investigate the identity of that boy from today, and prepare spirit jade and medicinal herbs to bribe the students who will be enrolling tomorrow. We must ensure that Luo Tian passes the entrance exam without any mistakes."
"Yes, Master, I will take care of it immediately." After everyone in the room was gone, Ye Jingming looked at a secluded spot in the Ye family compound and muttered to himself:
"Father, why are you so slow to relinquish power to me? Are you still waiting for my so-called elder brother? The first line of the family is already dead in name only. Only the second line of the family is the true heir of the Ye family."
Su family.
"Master, should we send someone to investigate that young man's background?"
“I think that young man is quite good, and Feng Yang is genuinely on good terms with him. As his father, I'd better not get involved, lest he blame me for meddling and complain to his mother about me.”
royal palace.
“Ah Zhi, do you really not need to send someone to investigate that boy’s background? I think he’s alright, but I’m afraid he has ulterior motives.”
“Brother Xuan, these are the friends that Che’er chose himself. We should respect his choice. If he finds out that we’re investigating his friends, he might get angry.”
"Alright then, I'm just worried that Che'er is so naive and might be deceived, so let's not investigate for now. If he does something to hurt Che'er one day, then we'll intervene." It has to be said that good parents naturally raise excellent children.
Inside the strongest academy, atop the highest peak, stands a small wooden cabin. Inside, a young-looking man is leisurely brewing tea, its fragrant aroma filling the entire cabin.
"Master! Master!" A sudden shout broke the tranquility, startling a chorus of birdsong.
The visitor addressed him as "Master," but barged into the wooden house without permission. Seeing the fragrant tea, he disregarded all etiquette and drank it straight down his throat.
"Master, your spiritual tea is still the most fragrant and nourishing." The person called Master showed a helpless smile.
"Ge Hong, you are really wasting a precious resource! The spiritual tea should be savored carefully."
"Sigh, Master, look at your slow and leisurely nature. You already guessed that I would come to ask you about that boy, but you're still holding back. Others may not know about the cloud-patterned glass pendant, but I do. Ever since I entered the academy, you've always carried that jade pendant with you. Before, when I asked you for it, you wouldn't give it to me. Now you've actually given it to that boy. Master, tell me honestly, is that boy your child that you secretly had outside?"
"Ge Hong! You talk too much. Besides, you know I can't get out," the man said disappointedly.
Seeing this, Ge Hong became anxious again: "Master, look at me, you're thinking about useless things again. You can't go out, but I send you things from the outside world every year in different ways. Stop being so sentimental, it will make you age faster."
"Yes, I'm not as old as you." The man said calmly, saying something that was infuriating. Just by looking at his appearance, one might mistake Ge Hong for the master.
“Ge Hong, that young man is different. He has been trapped for thousands of years, but I still want to go out and see for myself, and I also want to go home. He may very well be the key.”
"I have been wandering here for a thousand years, and my cultivation has reached the Spirit Venerable level. A hundred years ago, I founded an academy and built the Spirit Jade. I have been hoping to meet someone with exceptional talent one day. Today, he was able to break my jade, which means that his talent is not limited to this. He is the most likely person to break through to the Spirit Venerable level and enter the Upper Realm."
“But Master, he is only a Spirit Master. When he reaches the Spirit Venerable level, he may not be able to cultivate as quickly as you do.”
"Ge Hong, has your cultivation improved in recent years?"
When it came to cultivation level, Ge Hong was somewhat disappointed:
"I've been stuck at the fifth level of the Spirit King realm for five years. I've used countless elixirs and medicines, but I haven't made any progress whatsoever."
“I don’t know if there were any Spirit Venerables on this continent in the past, but since I came here, no other Spirit Venerable has appeared except for me. I don’t know if they died from lightning tribulation or something else happened, but in recent years I have felt more and more that the spiritual energy on this continent is not enough. I am now a Level 2 Spirit Venerable, and I have reached a bottleneck. There is no more spiritual energy in the world here to support my upgrade.”
Ge Hong listened to his words and fell into deep thought, something he hadn't done in a long time. Could it be that some unknown secret had occurred on this continent? He didn't know what race his master was. He only knew that his master had a mysterious understanding of the will of heaven. Since he said that the boy was special, then he must be special!
“Master, that young man is called Feng Hua. I will bring him to see you after he is admitted to the academy. I will formally accept him as my disciple. But Master, if that kid is really outstanding, could you consider letting him manage the academy when he is strong enough? That way, I can go out and find some interesting things for you, cough cough, and have some fun with them.”
"You can go now, I'm tired," the man said calmly.
"Go, go, Master, you really are just using me and then sending me away. So, are you going to agree or not to what I'm about to say?"
The man gave him a gentle look: "It depends on my mood." Then the wooden door closed, and Ge Hong was thrown off the mountain.
Ge Hong's personality was completely different from his, but why did he choose him as his disciple? Perhaps it was because Ge Hong was always chattering away when he was lonely and lost, which was very annoying, but it also took away his worries.
Is your name Feng Hua? You are my last hope.
