“Senior Sister Miao Miao, you don’t have to mention that,” Ye Mo smiled. “Don’t you know my strength clearly?” His smile faded. “Lin Langya has just been accepted as Elder Wu Tian’s disciple, and he seems to be in cahoots with the young society head as well. I’m afraid that he’ll try to do something to your clan.”

“What? Elder Wu Tian has accepted Lin Langya as his disciple?” Miao Miao was both astonished and anxious at the same time. “How is that possible? From what I know, Elder Wu Tian had one son, but he was killed by his enemy. One day, the elder randomly stumbled upon a young man that greatly resembled his dead son. That man is Wu Xin. He adopted Wu Xin as his son and treats him like his own flesh and blood. That Wu Xin was originally only at the Spirit Cultivating Realm, but with Elder Wu Tian’s relentless assistance, he’s now reached the peak of Spirit Devour Realm. He’s even equipped with a Bejeweled Weapon, and he’s undefeated among those at Spirit Devour Realm and below. If Lin Langya’s really been accepted as Elder Wu Tian’s disciple, his growth will be even scarier.”

Wu Xin wasn’t a particularly talented cultivator, but with Elder Wu Tian’s help and the endless supply of treasured medicinal products, he was pushed to peak stage Spirit Devour Realm.

As for Lin Langya, he already had a decent talent in cultivation. And, apparently, he possessed the Celestial Hound Physique, and when he advanced into the Transcendence Realm, his Transcendence Golden Body would be the Howling Celestial Hound. One could say that he had boundless prospects.

“That was why I came to tell you about this, Senior Sister Miao Miao,” Ye Mo said calmly. “I’m afraid they might enlist the help of Elder Wu Tian to move against the Asura Palace and your clan as well.”

“Us of the Asura Palace do not fear him. But he’ll most likely make a move against my clan and snatch our Devil Refining Gourd,” Miao Miao said with her brows furrowed tightly. “He’ll definitely use our engagement as an excuse to come seek trouble with us.”

“Don’t worry, Senior Sister Miao Miao,” Ye Mo declared with a ruthless glint in his eyes. “The Lin Clan is definitely a member of the First Heaven Society. If he dares hurt your clan, I’ll kill him.”

“Junior Brother Ye Mo, don’t act recklessly,” Miao Miao said. “Lin Langya is a repulsive person, but if you want to kill him, you can’t do it openly and without fear. The only exception is if you can kill him during a competition. In a month, the Six Dao Tournament will start. Even our eldest senior brother will appear then. We can think of a way to kill him at that time.”

“Um. With Elder Wu Tian’s protection, Lin Langya will start doing very well for himself,” Ye Mo said. “Looks like I need to look for a backer as well so I don’t have to worry about him trying anything against me.” He looked at Miao Miao and continued speaking, “Senior Sister Miao Miao, I’m going to Nangong Estate today. Nangong Yurou was injured. I need to treat her.”

“Nangong Estate?” Miao Miao’s eyes lit up as she said, “Junior Brother Ye Mo, I’ve heard you have a good relationship with the two young ladies of the Nangong Clan. Work hard. Perhaps you might gain the Nangong Clan as your backer. When that happens, many elders will come offering to take you as a disciple.”

Ye Mo understood what Miao Miao was trying to say. He smiled but didn’t say anything as he left the Asura Palace.

Nangong Qingxue had already made the necessary arrangements, so Ye Mo was able to enter the Nangong Estate unimpeded.

There were a lot of guards who knew him as Ye Mo, the one who had saved their second young lady.

“It’s Young Master Ye Mo.”

“Young Master Ye Mo, here to give second young lady treatment again?”

The moment Ye Mo entered the Nangong Estate, people greeted him warmly.

“Yeah,” Ye Mo returned the greetings and asked, “Where are Young Lady Qingxue and lord castellan?”

“Lord castellan is currently meeting a guest. I heard the guest is an elder from the Inner Peak.”

“Yeah. The elder’s here with a man. I think they are here to discuss the marriage of the second young lady.”

“That elder has really bad timing. The second young lady is still ill in bed, and they’re here to discuss something like that.”

“I heard the elder is Elder Wu Tian from the Inner Peak, an elder with high prestige at the Door of Desolation.”

When Ye Mo heard that, he furrowed his brows. So Elder Wu Tian had an engagement agreement with Nangong Wudi as well? Was it an engagement between Wu Xin, Elder Wu Tian’s adopted son and Yurou?

As Ye Mo thought of it, a sliver of murderous intent rose in his heart again. Nangong Yurou was his woman. He couldn’t allow anyone to steal her away.

“Hmph. Castellan Nangong, what’s the meaning of this?”

As Ye Mo approached the main hall, a familiar voice rang out from the hall. It was the voice of Elder Wu Tian, the elder from Inner Peak.

At present, both he and Nangong Wudi were seated on the seats of honor. To his right was a young man. The young man had a decent look and wore a set of white outfits. He had a powerful aura about him and was also the Spirit Devour Realm expert with the strongest aura Ye Mo had ever met.

And to the other side, Nangong Qingxue was seated beside her father. She had complicated emotions, she had just heard from her father that something had happened before her sister and Ye Mo. Moreover, her sister liked Ye Mo a lot as well.

She felt very conflicted. The only man she liked was the man her sister liked as well.

As she thought about it, a layer of mist formed in her eyes.

“Elder Wu Tian, I am helpless myself as well,” Nangong Wudi said. “My daughter is young, and can’t help falling in love with a young man. Moreover, the two like each other greatly. Elder Wu Tian, let us respect their wish and cancel this engagement. Of course, we’re willing to compensate you for your lost.”

He said before clapped his hands, summoning 10 maids that entered the hall. Each of them was carrying some sort of treasure.

“Castellan Nangong, who do you think I am?” Wu Tian didn’t even glance at the items. He sneered. “Do you think I care for these items of yours? I can understand a youthful fling between two youngsters. But I’m more interested in who this young man is. What genius is worthy of making Castellan Nangong cancel the engagement agreement between us?”

“About that...although the young man is quite talented as well, he is of course not comparable to Wu Xin,” Nangong Wudi said with an awkward expression. “But my daughter likes him a lot, so I have no choice but to do this.”

“Castellan Nangong.” Wu Xin stepped forward, cupped his fists and said, “Young Lady Yurou is still young. I reckon she must have been tricked by some scheming scoundrel. For people of our status, our significant half must be a person of comparable status. I like Young Lady Yurou as well. I hope Castellan Nangong can reconsider.”

“Greetings, lord castellan.” Even with Elder Wu Tian in the hall, Ye Mo didn’t hesitate. He stepped forward and entered the hall before extending his greetings to Nangong Wudi.

“Oh? Ye Mo?” Nangong Wudi smiled when he saw Ye Mo enter. “Since you’re here, come offer Elder Wu Tian your greetings. He’s an elder from the Inner Peak. In the future, you’ll need his guidance at the Door of Desolation.”

“Greetings, Elder Wu Tian.” Although Ye Mo was cupping his fists politely at Wu Tian, he was sneering inwardly.

“Castellan Nangong, this can’t be the young man you mentioned, right?”Elder Wu Tian did not return Ye Mo’s polite greeting. Instead, he spoke in anger.
