Peerless Beauty: Picking Up a Beast as My Husband

After Ye San finished speaking, he lowered his head again, afraid of displeasing Ye Luotian. The room was quiet. Ye Luotian did not speak for a long time. He stared intently at the portrait in his hand, as if confirming it over and over again. The portrait showed Feng Hua's face, but she had a woman's hairstyle and was wearing women's clothes. She looked much gentler than she was now dressed as a man.

Then, he suddenly laughed. "Feng Hua, I've finally caught you red-handed, my dear sister. You've been going against me at every turn. So you really want to come to the main city? Then stay here forever."

He carefully put the portrait away and asked:

"How many people still know about this?"

"Replying to the young patriarch, only the old patriarch knows. Originally, we wanted the old patriarch to uphold justice and get rid of this monster. Unexpectedly, after the old patriarch found out about this, he placed the two of us under house arrest and did not punish her. Today, I saw that the Ye family had no guards, so I sneaked out to find the patriarch and tell him about this. Fortunately, I met the young patriarch. With your heroic demeanor, you will surely succeed in getting rid of that monster!"

It has to be said that Ye San's flattery really hit the nail on the head. Ye Luotian already disliked Feng Hua and was determined to get rid of her at all costs. Now this news came at just the right time!

"Your name is Ye San. You did a good job. I already know about this, and I don't want anyone else to know. Go back to where you belong. Once my father officially takes over as clan leader, he will definitely treat you well!"

"I understand. I will be mute from now on. Thank you, Young Clan Chief." Ye San left with deep gratitude.

Holding the portrait, Ye Luotian realized that now that he had found her weakness, he could lure her out of the strongest academy and bring her to the Ye family. However, she was already a level five Spirit King, so he needed to be fully prepared to kill her. Moreover, the sooner the killing was carried out, the better, since she might level up again in a while, which would make things even more difficult.

He doesn't have many high-level Spirit Kings under his command right now, so he can only wait for his father to return before discussing it further.

Night fell quickly, but Ye Luotian waited anxiously in Ye Jingming's study.

Finally, the sound of the door being pushed open rang out, and Ye Jingming entered. He saw his beloved son waiting anxiously in the study, and hurried over.

"Tian'er, I heard about what happened at the competition today, but your injury hasn't healed yet. I'll send someone to fetch the Ten Thousand Year Sounding Bait to help you recover."

Ye Luotian quickly grabbed him and then spoke:

“Father, I have something more important to tell you.” He said this, displaying the portrait to Ye Jingming, and continued:

“Father, this is a portrait of Ye Huasheng brought by someone from the border town. Although the portrait shows her dressed as a woman, her face is exactly the same as Feng Hua from the strongest academy. I suspect that Feng Hua is her alias. She killed someone in the border town and fled back, using the alias Feng Hua to enter the strongest academy. I'm afraid she will eventually return to the Ye family.”

Ye Jingming's hands trembled as he asked:

"Tian'er, this portrait is authentic, and the news is true!"

“Father, Grandpa already knew about this matter, but he still kept it a secret. He has always favored the Ye family lineage. If he knew that Ye Huasheng was not only not a good-for-nothing, but had also inherited a lineage and become a peerless genius, famous throughout the Holy City, then I'm afraid you, Father, would not be able to sit comfortably in your position as the head of the family.”

Ye Jingming's heart trembled violently upon hearing this. The name Ye Jingyu had weighed heavily on his head for so many years. Even now that he was missing, his father still only had eyes for Ye Jingyu. He thought that the only thing Ye Jingyu had that was superior to him was that he had given birth to Ye Luotian early on. Ye Luotian's talent was quite good, much better than the offspring of that wild woman Ye Jingyu had found from who-knows-where. Now, he was being told that all of this seemed like a joke. He was no match for Ye Jingyu, and his offspring was no match for Ye Huasheng.

No, that's not right. The position of clan leader belongs to him. He absolutely cannot hand it over to someone else. She's hiding her identity and using an alias, right? Then let her die with that identity. If she dies, she'll just be Feng Hua, and she won't be Ye Huasheng of the Ye family lineage.

He closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of scheming.

"With her dead, the Ye family line will be wiped out."

“Father, we can use this to lure him to the Ye family, then we can set up a trap and see how he can escape. As long as he’s not in the strongest academy, the strongest academy has no right to interfere in his death.”

"She is now a level 5 Spirit King, has contracted so many divine beasts, and even has a level 6 divine beast. There aren't many people in the Ye family who can kill her."

"Father forgot that each major family has a protective formation. Under the protection formation, the enemy's level will be suppressed, and the formation will temporarily sever the connection between humans and spirit beasts."

Ye Jingming hesitated after hearing this:

"However, this formation can only be activated when the family is facing a life-or-death crisis, and the cost is extremely high."

"Father, this is a matter of life and death. Are we just going to wait for Ye Huasheng to grow stronger day by day until we can't control her, and then wait for her to come knocking on our door, take back the position of clan leader, and take back everything?"

After hearing this, Ye Jingming immediately stopped hesitating and made up his mind:

"Then activate the clan protection formation! This clan protection formation has been known only to the direct descendants and heirs throughout the generations. This formation is extremely domineering. Once the Spirit King injects spiritual power into the formation's core, it will be automatically absorbed until the spiritual power is completely drained and he dies from exhaustion."

This drawback must not be known to the Spirit King, otherwise they will surely escape and leak the news. Go and select twenty Spirit Kings from collateral branches or outer sects. The higher the level of the Spirit King, the greater the suppression. However, remember to reserve five high-level Spirit Kings. Once she can no longer summon divine beasts, join forces to kill her! My Ye family has lost twenty Spirit Kings at once; this matter must succeed!

"Yes, Father." Ye Luotian's expression was solemn, with a smile on his lips, as if he had already imagined the scene of Feng Hua being killed after the plan succeeded.

"My dear sister, Ye Huasheng, I really look forward to our next meeting."

Ye Luotian went to gather his men, while Feng Hua was unaware that a conspiracy was unfolding around her. Ye San, this seemingly insignificant little man, had actually stirred up such a huge storm.

At this moment, Feng Hua was completely unaware that her true identity had been discovered by the Ye family. She had a wonderful sleep and felt refreshed.

Thinking about how she had been in seclusion for a year and then rushed back to participate in the competition, she hadn't yet visited Master Wuchen on the highest mountain. He had specially retrieved the Dragon Thunder Crystal for her, and she wanted to go up and see him, since she didn't know when she would have to go out for training again.

Thinking of this, she opened the door and covered a hundred miles in a single step. Her figure quickly disappeared from the spot and then appeared on the mountain.
