Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Ye Yikun didn’t get mad. Instead, he burst into laughter. “Believe what you want. Throughout history, it’s been a case of winner-takes-all. No matter the process, as long as I win in the end, that’s all that matters.”

“Ye Yikun, you’re overestimating yourself.” Ye Leng’an smirked lazily. “Why are you so sure you’ll succeed? If you fail, your reputation will be ruined. And because of you, the Ye family will suffer greatly.”

“I won’t fail!” Ye Yikun affirmed. “Ye Leng’an, face the facts. You’ll see how powerful I’ve become in two days, on the night of the full moon. No, you probably won’t witness that. By then, you’ll likely be gone. But don’t worry, I won’t forget your sacrifice.”

Ye Yikun’s eyes gleamed with madness as he continued, “Ye Leng’an, when our Ye family becomes the top family in the Hidden World, I’ll ensure your sacrifice is noted in our family records.”

Seeing Ye Yikun’s crazed demeanor, Ye Leng’an shook her head. “You’re truly insane.”

Ye Leng’an’s composure made Ye Yikun uneasy as if he was just a joke. “Ye Leng’an, don’t expect anyone to rescue you. Let me tell you, no one can find this place. Even Huangfu Ruiling wouldn’t stumble upon it, so don’t hope to escape.”

“Because we are still in the Ye family, right?” Ye Leng’an surveyed her surroundings before continuing. “Anyone wouldn’t have thought you’d imprison me here.”

Hearing that, Ye Yikun was momentarily stunned. However, he quickly narrowed his eyes. “How did you know?”

He was sure Ye Leng’an had truly passed out, not pretending.

“I guessed.” Ye Leng’an shrugged, smiling. “You went to great lengths to imprison me as a sacrifice. So, I figured you’d choose the safest spot you know. Clearly, the Ye family is the best choice because it’s your territory.”

“Ye Leng’an, you’re indeed sharp.” Ye Yikun suddenly chuckled. “But even if you know this is the Ye family, so what? Nobody knows about this secret chamber.”

Ye Leng’an nodded without further words.

Ye Yikun didn’t trust Ye Leng’an’s compliance. But he didn’t care and left the room.

He wasn’t concerned about Ye Leng’an escaping because he had cast a potent forbidden spell. Even with Ye Leng’an’s high cultivation, she couldn’t escape. Moreover, no one outside could detect this place, let alone rescue her.

After Ye Yikun left, Ye Leng’an’s eyes showed a hint of something mysterious. She didn’t doubt Ye Yikun’s words. Plus, she found the forbidden spell here indeed masked all her aura. So, if Huangfu Ruiling tried to find her, it wouldn’t be easy. But she had a way to free herself, likely only during the full moon in two days.

She didn’t know what Ye Yikun meant by the reversal technique, but it must be some forbidden art. Just like the ones they discovered before, it couldn’t be cast in this secret chamber.

For now, she was safe for the next two days. She needed to conserve her energy to escape better then.

At this moment, Ye Hongxuan was unaware that his missing father and daughter were both in the Ye family.

The Ye family was in chaos. Everyone saw Ye Leng’an enter, but no one saw her leave with their old master. It was as if they vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

What worried the Ye family most was possible retaliation from the Huangfu family. With Ye Leng’an missing, would they withstand the onslaught from the Huangfu family?

Ye Hongxuan was in a bind, especially with elders pressing him for answers. Unable to respond, he merely dismissed them.

In the study, Ye Hongxuan sat, his expression grim.

Lian Mengzhu entered, seeing her husband’s troubled face. She sighed and approached, resting a hand on his shoulder. “Don’t dwell too much. There’s always a solution.”

Ye Hongxuan, snapped out of his thoughts, looking at Lian Mengzhu. He shook his head, complaining, “I don’t understand what Father intends to do. Taking Ye Leng’an away, what’s his aim?”

Lian Mengzhu hesitated before suggesting, “Don’t overthink. Maybe Ye Leng’an’s disappearance has nothing to do with Father.”

“Do you believe that?” Ye Hongxuan challenged her. “Everyone saw Ye Leng’an enter Father’s courtyard. Now they’re both missing. No one saw it. Tell me, besides Father, who could do this?”

Even Lian Mengzhu couldn’t counter. Her face clouded with worry. Tentatively, she proposed, “Perhaps Father wouldn’t harm Ye Leng’an. She has the blood of the Ye family.”

“Who knows?” Ye Hongxuan’s tone was laced with sarcasm. “Lately, we’ve no clue what Father and Wanwan have been up to. And look at Wanwan’s cultivation. Doesn’t it seem odd?”

Mengzhu’s worry deepened at his words. After a moment, she suggested, “Hongxuan, should we ask Wanwan about this? Maybe she knows something.”
