His cold words, coupled with an expressionless face, seemed to instantly chill the air several degrees. Those around couldn’t help but shiver involuntarily.

Ye Hongxuan stood motionless, his expression soured. He hadn’t antic.i.p.ated Huangfu Ruiling’s lack of respect. After all, he was Ye Leng’an’s biological father and Huangfu Ruiling’s future father-in-law.

Huangfu Ruiling was fully aware of this. Considering Ye Leng’an’s relationship with Ye Hongxuan, he should have shown more courtesy, shouldn’t he?

However, most people around were unaware of the truth. So, seeing Huangfu Ruiling’s att.i.tude didn’t come as a surprise. After all, although he rarely appeared, his cold nature was well known.

Observing Ye Hongxuan’s displeased demeanor, Ye Leng’an knew his inner conflict. She sneered and spoke, “Master Ye, is there anything else?”

If Huangfu Ruiling’s att.i.tude irked Ye Hongxuan, then Ye Leng’an’s distant demeanor exacerbated it.

Yet, despite his myriad emotions, Ye Hongxuan couldn’t afford to reveal them in front of so many people. He managed a forced smile and said, “Since Master Huangfu honors us with your presence, we naturally should show our hospitality. Please, Master Huangfu, come in!”

With that, he took the lead.

Lian Mengzhu’s intense gaze remained fixed on Ye Leng’an, reflecting a mixture of affection, guilt, and the pain of Ye Leng’an’s refusal to acknowledge her.

Sensing Lian Mengzhu’s burning gaze, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but furrow her brow.

She disliked Lian Mengzhu’s gaze as if she owed her something. There was no clear right or wrong in this matter, as the root cause was Lian Zixin’s jealousy. However, since Lian Mengzhu had chosen Ye Wanwan, she shouldn’t have played the victim before her. It wouldn’t induce guilt, only irritation.

Perceiving Ye Leng’an’s thoughts, Huangfu Ruiling pulled her aside, blocking Lian Mengzhu’s view. Then, he shot Lian Mengzhu a warning glance.

Lian Mengzhu’s gaze, initially fixed on Ye Leng’an, was suddenly blocked. When she looked up, she met Huangfu Ruiling’s cold, warning eyes. She held her breath and immediately averted her gaze, but her racing heart betrayed her composure.

Despite Huangfu Ruiling’s younger age, his imposing aura intimidated her. Yet, this was to be expected, given his position as the head of the Huangfu family and his superior cultivation.

Seeing Huangfu Ruiling defend Ye Leng’an, Lian Mengzhu felt a mix of joy and sorrow. His stance reflected Ye Leng’an’s.

If Ye Leng’an truly regarded her as a mother, Huangfu Ruiling wouldn’t disregard her like this. She pondered how she could earn Ye Leng’an’s acknowledgment.

Each person present harbored their own motives.

As thoughts swirled, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu led Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an to the main hall.

Upon entering, Ye Leng’an spotted Ye Yikun seated at the head.

Ye Yikun appeared rejuvenated, indicating his recovery from previous injuries. Yet, this was expected. Huangfu Ruiling hadn’t dealt a fatal blow last time, and the Ye family was proficient in alchemy.

Upon their arrival, they felt Ye Yikun’s scrutinizing gaze, devoid of any lingering resentment.

Witnessing this, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but smirk inwardly.

It seemed Ye Yikun hadn’t held a grudge against them for past events, but it wasn’t due to magnanimity.

She knew that if Huangfu Ruiling’s ident.i.ty hadn’t been exposed, if the Huangfu family’s influence hadn’t been formidable, they wouldn’t even qualify to be here. And Ye Yikun wouldn’t spare them due to their previous grievances.

Of course, she didn’t overlook Ye Wanwan standing beside Ye Yikun.

Seeing Ye Wanwan, she was momentarily stunned. At this moment, Ye Wanwan appeared anything but haggard; she positively glowed.

She had personally destroyed Ye Wanwan’s dantian, so she understood the consequences. Under normal circ.u.mstances, even with ample medicinal pills, Ye Wanwan couldn’t have recovered to this extent.

Yet, not only had Ye Wanwan fully recuperated, but her cultivation had also improved. Something was amiss. However, Ye Wanwan’s aura was unstable, suggesting she had resorted to unorthodox means to advance her cultivation.

Ye Leng’an approached Huangfu Ruiling and whispered, “What do you think Ye Wanwan did to recover and advance her cultivation? Her aura is truly unstable.”

“Undoubtedly dishonorable methods.” Huangfu Ruiling frowned. “I wonder if any harmful means were employed.”

A glint of darkness flickered in Ye Leng’an’s eyes. “It seems a thorough investigation is warranted.”

As Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an conversed discreetly, many guests observed. Some envied the close bond between the engaged couple, while others harbored jealousy and resentment.

Among them was Ye Wanwan, consumed by hatred. From the moment she laid eyes on Ye Leng’an, every fiber of her being screamed for vengeance.

The hatred intensified when the enemies met face to face.

The animosity between her and Ye Leng’an transcended mere enmity. It had escalated to a life-and-death vendetta. She remembered every single thing Ye Leng’an had ever done to her, and it was all etched deep in her heart.
