Chapter 1015: Disclose It
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “Don’t worry. The Enforcement Team has ways to find out everything Ye Yikun has done.”
Hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s answer, Ye Leng’an felt relieved. Then, she said with some curiosity, “But, I’m really curious. Where did Ye Yikun get these evil cultivation methods? Over the years, he must have harmed many people.”
“Probably those that escaped during that event.” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head and asked, “Where have you been these past few days? I searched the entire Hidden World but couldn’t find you.”
“In fact, I never left the Ye family.” Ye Leng’an explained slowly, “I’ve been in Ye Yikun’s courtyard the whole time. But, there’s a forbidden spell in that secret room, so I couldn’t send any messages out.”
Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes flashed with a hint of anger. “This time, I won’t let anyone involved off the hook.”
“Huh?” Ye Leng’an was confused. “Does Ye Yikun have accomplices? That’s unlikely. Once this matter is exposed, it’ll be condemned by everyone.”
“Master Zhongyu and Master Murong are also involved.” Huangfu Ruiling said calmly, “Their sudden visit prevented me from accompanying you to the Ye family. Because of this, Ye Yikun had an opportunity.”
He never believed in coincidences, especially this time. The timing was perfect. It must be because Master Zhongyu and Master Murong were connected to Ye Yikun.
Before, he couldn’t track down Ye Leng’an, so he didn’t have the chance to square things up with them. But now that Ye Leng’an was back, it was payback time.
Ye Leng’an nodded in understanding. “I’m really curious about what Ye Yikun offered them to get their help. But once Ye Yikun’s deeds are revealed, they’ll probably regret it.”
Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes flashed with a cold glare. “Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. They’ve lived for so many years, they should understand that.”
Ye Leng’an nodded.
After a night of turmoil, even cultivators would feel exhausted. And being trapped in a secret room for days only added to her weariness.
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s tiredness, Huangfu Ruiling didn’t say anything else and let her rest.
The next day, while having breakfast, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an saw Li San walk in.
Li San respectfully bowed and said, “Master, Ye Yikun has already confessed everything.”
After handing over the information, Li San left.
Upon hearing Li San’s report, Ye Leng’an was momentarily stunned. She hadn’t anticipated Ye Yikun to spill everything so swiftly. Yet, upon reflection, it didn’t seem entirely surprising. Despite being an old fox, Ye Yikun had already been stripped of all his cultivation. Given his current predicament, nearing the end of his life, he likely lacked the vigilance he once had.
Also, as Huangfu Ruiling said, the Enforcement Team had many ways to get information out of people. So, it wasn’t surprising to get Ye Yikun to confess so quickly.
Ye Leng’an took the documents and began reading them. Both Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an were mentally resilient, quickly digesting Ye Yikun’s confession. Huangfu Ruiling’s expression soured, and Ye Leng’an, too, set down the documents, her expression grim. Obviously, what Ye Yikun did made them very angry.
Observing their expressions, Li San remained silent. Having acquired this information firsthand, he empathized with their anger. After all, Ye Yikun had inflicted harm on numerous individuals through his evil arts, leaving many without even a trace of their bodies.
Huangfu Ruiling looked at Li San and then ordered, “Disclose all this information.”
Li San was a little surprised. After all, releasing all this information would cause a sensation in the Hidden World.
Seeing Li San’s hesitation, Huangfu Ruiling frowned. “Didn’t you hear what I said?”
His cold tone made Li San shudder, and he quickly replied, “Yes, Master.”
He glanced at Ye Leng’an, worried that she might be upset. But seeing her calm expression, he left.
His earlier hesitation stemmed from the sensational nature of the matter, but more significantly, its involvement with the Ye family. Despite Miss Ye’s strained relationship with the Ye family, she remained Master Ye’s biological daughter. He feared a potential conflict between Miss Ye and his master over this matter. However, it seemed his concerns were unfounded.
After Li San left, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but laugh. “Seems like Li San is really looking out for you! But why does he think I’d plead for the Ye family? Have I ever shown any concern for them?”
Huangfu Ruiling shook his head. “That’s what most people think. They always think blood ties are unbreakable.”
He wasn’t just referring to the Ye family, but also his parents and brothers. They seemed to think the same way, which was why they kept getting involved.
