The Yin Clan was very lively that night.

After dinner, the elders of the Yin Clan surrounded Yu Huang like kind elders. They looked at her lovingly and asked her about her life experience over the years.

Actually, everything about Yu Huang’s 21 years of life had long been written into books and sent to the elders.

During the day, before Yu Huang returned, they had already flipped through the book. They actually knew Yu Huang’s past.

However, that was something written on paper after all. It was far better to hear it from Yu Huang herself.

Yu Huang saw that the elders’ eyes were filled with concern and love. They weren’t scheming at all. Only then did she slowly tell them what she still remembered.

Occasionally, when she talked about some vague memories, Yu Donghai, who was sitting on a small stool, would take the initiative to add a few words.

After returning to the Yin Clan, Yu Donghai was no longer Yu Huang’s father. He was only a servant.

In the banquet hall, the First Elder sat at the head of the table, while the other nine elders sat in a row with the First Elder as the center.

Yin Mingchong sat on the right below the First Elder. Beside him were some core members of the Yin Clan.

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao sat opposite Yin Mingchong. Yin Rong and Yin Fu sat beside Sheng Xiao.

As for Yu Donghai, he sat at the small table behind Yu Huang.

Everyone listened quietly to the master and servant talk about the past. Occasionally, when they heard something sad, the First Elder’s eyes would turn red.

On the other side, Yin Mingchong was also pretending to be sad.

Yu Huang picked up the wine and took a sip while observing Yin Mingchong’s reaction through the bottom of the transparent glass.

When she saw Yin Mingchong sitting there with a fake benevolent expression, she immediately found it ridiculous.

This person was so hypocritical. It was no wonder that her father and master couldn’t stand him.

They talked late into the night.

Seeing that it was getting late, the First Elder said, “It’s late. Child, you and Sheng Xiao should go and rest first. Wake up early tomorrow morning. I’ll take you to the Yin Clan’s ancestral hall to pay respects to your ancestors.”

“Alright, elders and uncles. Good night.”

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao stood up and helped Yin Donghai up from behind the small table.

When the First Elder saw this, he was surprised and didn’t say anything.

Although Yin Donghai was born a slave and was only a servant of the Yin Clan, Yin Donghai saved Yu Huang’s life.

It was normal for the young master and the Sheng family to treat Yin Donghai with respect.

Yin Mingchong didn’t like Yin Donghai, so when he saw that Sheng Xiao was respectful to Yin Donghai, he felt frustrated.

When he was young, he thought he was an impressive figure just because his cousin trusted him. He followed his cousin around and flaunted his might. Now that he had self-destructed his beast form and become an ordinary person, he could still obtain Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao’s love. How could Yin Mingchong not be angry?

Yin Mingchong took a deep breath and revealed a warm smile. He said to Yin Rong and Yin Fu, “Rong’er, Fu’er, bring Ah Huang to her house to rest. She just returned to the clan and isn’t familiar with the Yin Clan yet.”

“Got it, Dad.”

Yin Fu and Yin Rong led the way while Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao supported Yu Donghai.

The banquet hall building was built halfway up the mountain, and the core disciples’ residence was on a plain near the peak. It was a little far, so they had to drive.

Yin Rong personally drove them along the mountain road to their residence.

This was a residential area where the disciples gathered. The houses were next to each other. Yin Mingchong gave Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao a flat courtyard.

Yu Huang wasn’t picky about where she lived. She jumped out of the car first and helped Yu Donghai out.

Sheng Xiao strode out of the car. The two of them were about to help Yu Donghai into the house when Yu Donghai grabbed their arm.

Yu Donghai said, “Wait a moment.”

The two of them could only wait patiently.

Yin Donghai turned to look at Yin Fu and Yin Rong and said angrily, “The houses here are for the Yin Clan’s core disciples to live in, but our young master is the future clan leader. According to the rules, she is qualified to live in the young master’s residence!”

Yu Donghai looked at Yin Fu with a sharp gaze and questioned her, “Could it be that the daughter of the acting Patriarch lives in the Young Master’s Mansion, but the daughter of the Patriarch lives in an ordinary house?”

Yu Huang didn’t know that the Yin Clan had such rules. When she heard this, her expression turned cold.

Did they really care about the house?’

What they cared about was Yin Mingchong’s attitude.

As long as they were alive, they had to defend their dignity.

Yin Fu was rendered speechless by Yu Donghai’s question.

Yu Huang had been missing for 21 years, and everyone thought that she had long died. Although Yin Mingchong was only the acting patriarch of the Yin Clan, as long as Yu Huang didn’t return, he would continue to sit in this position until he was old.

Before abdicating, he naturally had the means to put his chosen heir in that position.

Because he was certain that Yu Huang wouldn’t be able to return, Yin Mingchong had allowed Yin Fu to move into the young master’s residence five years ago. Originally, Yin Mingchong had planned to transfer Yin Rong to the young master’s residence after Saint Tomb ended and Yin Rong successfully obtained Prime Master Jing An’s inheritance.

Now, Yu Huang was back.

Now that the real young master had returned, the young master’s residence should be returned to her.

Yin Fu was at a loss. She didn’t know how to explain this. No matter how cocky she was in the Yin Clan, she had no right to be arrogant in front of Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang, the two top geniuses.

Yin Rong saw that Yin Fu’s face was red because of Yu Donghai’s interrogation and hurriedly explained, “Sir, don’t be angry. There’s a misunderstanding.”

Yu Donghai snorted coldly.

Yu Donghai was a clear-headed person. Regarding the matter of Yu Huang’s disappearance, only Yin Mingchong was guilty. His daughter had enjoyed the benefits Yin Mingchong had brought her, so she naturally had to share the consequences of Yin Mingchong’s sins.

However, Yin Rong was innocent.

She was only a disciple of the Yin Clan with good cultivation talent. Yu Donghai wouldn’t make things difficult for Yin Rong.

Yin Rong heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Yu Donghai had no intention of targeting her.

Yin Rong explained, “The young master had been wandering outside all these years and the young master’s residence hasn’t been lived in for a long time. The residence still needs to be repaired carefully. Today, after knowing that the young master will return to the clan, the patriarch has already ordered people to repair the house. However, the young master’s residence is relatively large, and the amount of work is relatively large. It won’t be able to be completed in a short day. Tonight, the young master and Young Master Sheng can only rest in this small building first. After the young master’s residence is repaired, they can return to the young master’s residence.”

Yin Rong’s words were tactful, and there was nothing wrong with them.

On the surface, she was saying that the young master’s residence had been uninhabited all these years, but in fact, she was also indirectly telling them that Yin Mingchong was still looking forward to the Young Master’s return and didn’t dare to interfere.

Secondly, when she said that the young master’s residence needed repair, it also indirectly expressed how much importance Yin Mingchong attached to this matter and Yin Mingchong’s concern for Yu Huang.

After Yu Donghai heard her words, his gaze swept across Yin Rong and Yin Fu before he sneered. “This eldest disciple of the Yin Clan is quite eloquent.”

He was also secretly mocking Yin Fu for being brainless.

Yin Fu gritted her teeth, and her eyes were filled with grievance.

After sending Yu Huang and the other two into the house, Yin Fu got into the car angrily.

Yin Rong quickly followed and heard Yin Fu curse angrily, “A servant born as a slave dares to mock me! No wonder Father can’t stand this man. He’s simply pushing his luck!”

Yin Rong hurriedly covered Yin Fu’s mouth. “Lower your voice. Have you forgotten that Young Master is a Level 4 Purifying Spirit Master? If Young Master hears your nonsense, how can she let it go?”

Yin Rong recalled Yu Huang’s murderous gaze when Yin Mingchong whipped Yu Donghai this afternoon. She knew how much Yu Huang cared about that gentleman.

“Young Master?!” Yin Fu glared at Yin Rong and scolded, “It’s only the first day she returned, and you’re already calling her Young Master. I’ve never heard you call me that before.”

Yin Rong wasn’t afraid of Yin Fu’s power at all. When she heard this, she calmly replied, “Do you think your father can still sit firmly in that position now that the Young Master is back?”

Yin Fu widened her eyes. “What do you mean?! My father has worked hard for the Yin Clan for the past twenty years. Even if he didn’t make any useful contributions, he has worked hard. The moment Yu Huang returns, she wants to remove my father from his position? That depends on whether she has the ability to win the hearts of the Yin Clan!”

Yin Rong shook her head. “I think you haven’t seen the situation clearly yet.”

Yin Rong leaned against the body of the SUV with a serious expression on her gentle and beautiful face.

Yin Rong analyzed, “Our young master isn’t a weak young master who can be bullied. Not to mention how outstanding she is, just look at how powerful the forces behind her are. Her foster father is the Grand State Master, her mentor is Saint Ling Xiao, and her husband is the young master of the Sheng family.”

“Do you think it’s difficult for her, who is talented and has a powerful background, to take back what should be hers? Didn’t you see the positions of the elders?”

“Prime Master Yin Mingjue sacrificed himself to save the world, but his daughter was stolen from the Yin Clan. The elders of the clan feel guilty about this matter. Now that the Young Master is back, they definitely have to express their gratitude.”

“And having your father abdicate and pushing the young master to the throne is their intention!”

Yin Fu’s beautiful face instantly turned pale when she heard Yin Rong’s analysis.

“No, no way…” Yin Fu refused to believe it.

No way?

“What I said is the best scenario. If that debate in three days proves your father’s innocence, he can still abdicate with dignity. If it turns out that your father was also involved in the young master’s disappearance twenty-one years ago, then…”

What awaited Yin Mingchong wasn’t abdication, but imprisonment!

Yin Fu’s eyes widened in disbelief and panic. “Impossible! It’s impossible for my father to be involved in that matter. Yu Huang is also his niece!”

Yin Rong only glanced at Yin Fu and didn’t say anything else.

Niece!

So what if she was his niece?

Many men would even abandon their wives and children for power, let alone a mere niece.

“Let’s go back and sleep.” It had been a tiring day. In the next few days, the Yin Clan would definitely be even more lively and they would be even more tired. Yin Rong had to rest well in advance before she had the energy to deal with the subsequent matters.

Yin Fu opened the car door and was about to get in when Yin Rong closed the car door and stopped her. “Where are you going? Do you still want to return to the Young Master’s Mansion?”

Yin Fu was stunned.

She thought of what Yu Donghai had said earlier and realized that she might never be able to return to the Young Master’s Mansion.

Yin Rong saw that Yin Fu was about to be scared silly. She shook her head and held Yin Fu’s hand as she turned around. “Sleep with me tonight.”

“… Okay.”

Yu Huang stood by the window of Yu Donghai’s room. She pricked up her ears and only retracted her hearing senses when she heard Yin Rong and Yin Fu walking away.

Yin Rong was indeed tactful.

Yin Rong knew that Yu Huang’s hearing was powerful, but she still deliberately stood by the car and said those words. Instead of saying that she was telling Yin Fu, it was more like she was telling Yu Huang a piece of information.

Between Yu Huang and Yin Mingchong, Yin Rong chose Yu Huang.

Yu Huang’s lips curled into a smile.

Yin Rong was indeed an intelligent woman. She had a blood feud in her heart, but she also had a compassionate heart.

It was rare.

Even if Yu Huang and Yin Rong couldn’t become close friends, they could still have a perfect subordinate and superior relationship. In the future, if she treated Yin Rong well, she would definitely become Yu Huang’s trusted aide.

Yu Huang understood this and quickly had an idea.

“Wine.” Yu Donghai was used to walking with his prosthetic arm. Today, he suddenly took off his prosthetic arm and used a walking stick. His arm was holding the walking stick the entire time, so it hurt a little.

At this moment, Yu Donghai was rubbing the medicinal wine on his arm.

Yu Huang walked to the bed and sat down beside Yu Donghai.

Her gaze was gentle as she stared at Yu Donghai’s face and held his hand. When she thought of how Yin Mingchong had almost whipped Yu Donghai today, she felt extremely guilty.
