Chapter 5

"Miss, since Ye Huanhuan barged into the gates of Hell, I might as well just kill her!" Upon mentioning Ye Huanhuan, Han Xing turns into a Hell Messenger.

Back then, Ye Huanhuan joined forces with Lin Xueyan, destroyed her young lady's appearance, dug out her young lady's Spiritual Root, caused the death of her unborn child, and shoved her into the ten-thousand-zhang Abyss…

This hatred cannot coexist under the same heaven!

Having waited so long, I'm not in a rush right now.

What does the miss mean?

"Let's go, we'll go meet her together. I want to see how she's been doing these years after digging out my Spiritual Root!" Ye Qingran narrowed her eyes slightly, a sharp light flashing in her pupils.

Outside Yaowang Valley

"Huanhuan, you came to Yaowang Valley this time to seek medicine, intending to give it to Qingyun Sword Immortal, right?"

Ye Huanhuan gave an arrogant nod.

"Miss Lin Yue, you know, our young lady possesses a Spiritual Root, a once-in-a-thousand-years occurrence; relying on our young lady's talent, entering the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect is trivial!"

Ye Huanhuan's personal maid spoke proudly; those unaware would think she had entered the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect.

The accompanying guards' eyes gleamed with envy.

It is well known that Ye Huanhuan possesses a Spiritual Root.

"Spiritual Root, a once-in-a-thousand-years occurrence; they couldn't help but sigh, Ye Huanhuan's fate is truly good!"

Lin Yue showed an envious expression: "Huanhuan, you are truly outstanding!"

Ye Huanhuan brushed her hair, her face calm, as if already accustomed: "Actually, before this, I have already met Qingyun Sword Immortal; he is quite satisfied with me; if nothing unexpected happens, this time going to the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect, he will formally accept me as his disciple."

In fact, she was already extremely proud in her heart.

She is now recognized as the number one genius and number one beauty of Xiliang City, her fame spreading far; Qingyun Sword Immortal affirms her upon seeing her once. Who could compare to such honor?

The people following behind her let out a gasp of surprise.

"Qingyun Sword Immortal! He is one of the Four Great Sword Immortals of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect! To become his disciple will surely lead to rapid advancement, even offering a chance to cultivate in Western Extremity!"

"Miss Ye is truly formidable; it turns out Qingyun Sword Immortal had already taken a liking to her!"

"Huanhuan, you are truly too low-key!"

……

Ye Huanhuan's gaze swept over the crowd's faces, her eyes hinting at disdain.

These people are indeed not fit for the high table. A mere Qingyun Sword Immortal shocks them so; what if she later goes to Western Extremity?

Indeed, they are a bunch of frogs in a well!

The group waited half a day, but no one from Yaowang Valley came out; under the scorching sun, they were drenched in sweat.

"Miss, what a damned Yaowang Valley, relying on its pill-refining skills to act arrogant! You are a disciple of Qingyun Sword Immortal!"

The maid beside Ye Huanhuan looked displeased.

"Exactly! I don't know why so many people revere Yaowang Valley; I don't see how impressive it is! Don't just be an empty reputation!"

Lin Yue's brows knit tightly, she was very angry.

She is of the Lin family! Her older sister Lin Xueyan is now the top contender of the struggle for supremacy, and in the future will be the mistress of that summit, supremely noble; a single finger of hers could destroy Yaowang Valley.

"Xing Er, what's making all this noise? Quickly make them shut up!"

A sound like heavenly music came from afar.

No one could be seen.

In the next instant, a figure like lightning attacked, kicking Ye Huanhuan's maid in the chest, making her spit out a mouthful of blood and collapse, unable to get up.

Then another kick sent Lin Yue flying, her face scraping the ground for a distance before stopping.

Ye Huanhuan and the others were all stunned.

Who on earth is this?

To have such speed!

Ye Huanhuan narrowed her eyes and coldly said: "Is this how Yaowang Valley treats its guests?"

"The way Yaowang Valley treats guests also depends on the person." After a pause, the pleasant voice continued: "For example, they are suited to this."

As the words fell, a figure drifted over, as if splendid light flowed around her. The one who came was a white-clothed woman, her bearing transcendent, her appearance ethereal and peerless, like the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady descending to the mortal world.

She landed lightly, her jade belt fluttering.

In her arms she held a white Xiao Naihu, its pink chubby mouth and pink chubby paws; it seemed tired, yawned, and its pink paws even patted its mouth in a human-like way, utterly adorable!

Afterwards, two more figures flew in, landing behind the white-clothed woman.

Though they did not surpass the white-clothed woman in outstandingness, they were like fairies.

All three covered their faces with veils, making their features indiscernible.

Everyone's faces showed shock.

Rumor has it that the people of Yaowang Valley all have extraordinary bearing and are mysterious; seeing them today, it is indeed so.

Ye Huanhuan saw the arriving person, her brows furrowed.

For some reason, she always felt that this person's brows and eyes were somewhat familiar, yet she couldn't recall.

Probably she's overthinking it!

"Which of you are the servants of Yaowang Valley?"

Han Xing saw the displeasure in Ye Huanhuan's eyes, curled her lip in mockery, pointing at Leng Yue beside her: "We are certainly servants of Yaowang Valley; do you really think, just by you, we would dare to imagine our valley master personally receiving you?"

Ye Huanhuan instantly felt furious.

She is now a member of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect, a disciple of Qingyun Sword Immortal, yet Yaowang Valley sent only three maidservants to receive her?

Is it not too much to not place her esteemed self in their eyes?

Given her status, it would not be excessive for the Medicine King Gu Gu Master to personally receive her, right?

"You Yaowang Valley are going too far! Knowing our identities, you still don't personally receive us?"

Well then, you guys, tell me—what is your identity?

This is the eldest miss of the Ye Family of Xiliang City, a disciple of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect and a disciple of Qingyun Sword Immortal, Ye Huanhuan! I am Lin Yue of the Lin Family of Xiliang City. My older sister, Lin Xueyan, is now someone at Zhu Lu Zhi Dian.

All I know is that the eldest miss of the Ye Family of Xiliang City is Ye Qingran; when did she become Ye Huanhuan? Moreover, the Lin Family of Xiliang City? What is that, I've never heard of it!

Hearing the name Ye Qingran, Ye Huanhuan first froze, then a ball of anger ignited in her heart.

That despicable woman Ye Qingran has been dead for five years, yet someone still remembers her?

Lin Yue clambered up from the ground, fury contorting her face: "You Yaowang Valley have gall! Our Lin Family is no longer what it once was; my older sister Lin Xueyan is now a person of the Western Extremes, and even the Emperor Sovereign of Zhu Lu Zhi Dian favors her! You spew such arrogant words, look down on everyone—are you not afraid that Your Majesty will destroy your Yaowang Valley?"

Ye Huanhuan did not stop Lin Yue; she also wanted to borrow the prestige of Zhu Lu Zhi Dian to deflate the Yaowang Valley's arrogance.

Who would have thought…

"Hmph, scared of shit!" Han Xing let out a cold snort, then directly burst out with vulgarity.

Whenever Zhu Lu Zhi Dian is mentioned, Han Xing gets angry!

These past years, if Lin Xueyan hadn't been hiding out in Zhu Lu Zhi Dian, they would have killed her long ago—how dare she strut around here?

Hearing Han Xing say that, Ye Huanhuan felt uncertain.

Yaowang Valley is a rising power that has garnered much attention these past years, but because it keeps a low profile, some people think it's merely nominal.

Seeing how confident the Yaowang Valley's maidservants are today, she couldn't help but grow more wary of Yaowang Valley.

Ye Huanhuan's eyes flashed, "Alright, you guys stop talking!" She then turned to Ye Qingran and the others, saying, "My friend here is straightforward; if I've said anything wrong, please forgive us, Yaowang Valley folks. I am Ye Huanhuan, come to Yaowang Valley seeking a Four-grade Sword Spirit Pill—money is no issue, I hope Valley Master will grant my request!"

She feared that if they kept arguing, Yaowang Valley would refuse to sell her any pills!

Before coming, she had already discussed this with her family; to ensure this apprenticeship would go smoothly, her family gave her a very generous sum of money.

Ye Qingran chuckled, "A Four-grade Sword Spirit Pill? What big talk!"

Even in Donglin Country there isn't a single Fourth-grade Alchemist, yet Ye Huanhuan demands a Four-grade Sword Spirit Pill.

Ye Huanhuan slightly raised her chin, speaking somewhat arrogantly, "After all, it's a gift for Qingyun Sword Immortal." She deliberately emphasized the words "Qingyun Sword Immortal".
