Just as Ye Xuan was about to be caught up by Ye Tianhao, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and with a nonchalant palm strike, sent Ye Tianhao flying back. “If my son has no shame, neither do I.

If you want to lay a hand on Ye Xuan, you’ll have to ask me if I agree first.” The person who intervened was an imposing, spirited old man, who stared indifferently at Ye Tianhao. “Nangong Bo, you again? What does this have to do with you?” Seeing clearly the person before him, Ye Tianhao’s expression darkened. If it hadn’t been for Nangong Bo’s sudden intervention, Ye Ba might not have been defeated. Now, this same man was blocking him again. Nangong Bo had never had much to do with the Ye family, so why did he help Ye Xuan time and again? “I just like this kid and dislike you. What can you do about it?” Nangong Bo did not want to waste words explaining. Ye Xuan was still the key figure needed by Nangong Yao to resolve her Xuanyin Body; how could he idly watch as the other was beaten or injured, when there were no others to cure his granddaughter? “You!” Ye Tianhao looked displeased, but as he was no match for Nangong Bo, he could only glare helplessly and refrain from attacking. “Scoundrel, in such a public place, you shamelessly intervene. You’ve completely disgraced our family.” At that moment, Ye Tianxiong also arrived on the platform, his gaze stern as he rebuked Ye Tianhao sharply. Knowing he was in the wrong, Ye Tianhao dared not retaliate. Ye Tianxiong was the family head and much stronger than him. Provoking Ye Tianxiong, even as the eldest son, would bring him no benefits. “I’ll settle the score with you later!” Before so many people, Ye Tianxiong could not reprimand him further. With a sweep of his sleeve, he sent Ye Tianhao away. Then he turned his gaze to Nangong Bo, smiling and bowing his hands in thanks. “Just now, we truly owe a debt of gratitude to Head Nangong for his timely intervention.” “No need,” Nangong Bo waved his hand. “I’m not interested in your family’s affairs—I just didn’t want to see the kid get hurt.” With that, he turned to Ye Xuan, saying, “Young man, it seems you’re not safe in the Ye family. Why not move to my Nangong residence? There are no intrigues there, and you are welcome anytime.” Hearing this, Ye Tianxiong was somewhat bewildered. Why was Nangong Bo so favorable towards Ye Xuan? Even if the latter had performed exceptionally at the clan meet, it didn’t justify such overt recruitment. “I’m used to living with the Ye family, but I appreciate the kind offer from Head Nangong.” Ye Tianxiong didn’t know why, but Ye Xuan certainly did. He bowed in assurance, “Please rest assured, what I promised earlier will be kept. I’ll visit your residence first thing tomorrow morning.” Having now owed Nangong Bo favors twice, Ye Xuan naturally remembered it all, and he indeed intended to help Nangong Yao with her Xuanyin Body. “Here, this saber returns to you.” Ye Xuan handed the Star-cutting Saber back to Nangong Bo. A fine saber it was, but ultimately it belonged to another, and what was borrowed must be returned. One day, he would need to find a weapon of his own. “In that case, I shall take my leave for today.” Taking the Star-cutting Saber, Nangong Bo leapt back to the VIP seats and left with Nangong Yao. Ye Xuan watched them from a distance and briefly made eye contact with Nangong Yao, nodding with a slight smile. Seeing this, she seemed initially startled but then appeared to understand, nodding back before she left. Given Nangong Bo’s nature, he wouldn’t lend his treasured saber easily. It must have been Nangong Yao persuading him. After all, in Nangong Bo’s heart, nothing was more important than his granddaughter. But this must have taken quite some effort from Nangong Yao, a fact Ye Xuan was fully aware of. “Ye Xuan, what did you promise Nangong Bo?” At this time, Ye Tianxiong asked with some confusion. The two had never clarified their agreement, which left him somewhat puzzled. What exactly had Ye Xuan promised to gain such strong support from Nangong Bo? “Family Head, it was just a small matter. I’m quite tired today; when there’s leisure next time, I’ll explain it to you.” It wasn’t that Ye Xuan didn’t want to tell Ye Tianxiong, but the matter was a bit complicated and not so easy to explain briefly, especially since Ye Tianxiong didn’t understand him well. It would have to wait for another time. “Then you should go back and rest well. The reward for first place in the clan meet, I’ll keep it for you. After you return from the Nangong residence tomorrow, come see me. Besides collecting your prize, I have important matters to discuss.” Ye Tianxiong spoke solemnly. The first place in the clan meet would earn substantial resources—an award of one hundred thousand taels of gold and various materials and pills for cultivation, all of considerable value. “Okay.” Seeing Ye Tianxiong take it so seriously, Ye Xuan knew it most likely wasn’t a trivial matter and gave a nod in agreement. However, before his visit to the Nangong family tomorrow, he needed to prepare all the necessary medicines and refine them, which meant he couldn’t rest and had a lot to attend to. However, after Ye Xuan left the training grounds, it didn’t affect the bustling activity there, as many people were still engrossed in discussions about the recent final match, tirelessly chatting away. Ye Xuan was undoubtedly the brightest talent at this clan gathering. After that battle, no one would think of him as the useless young master anymore. Instead, in Tianyang County, there were very few young people who could compare with him, and he was destined to have a limitless future. Even more so, many prominent figures from Tianyang County had already begun calculating, planning to bring their daughters along with handsome dowries to seek a marriage alliance with the Ye family, not wanting to miss this rising star. It probably wouldn’t take many days before the results of this clan gathering spread throughout Tianyang County and even beyond, completely clearing Ye Xuan’s reputation as a failure. From now on, his past as a failure would be history, and Ye Xuan was about to embark on a brand new path. … The next day. Although the sect gathering had concluded, the topic of the gathering was still sizzling hot among the thousands of individuals from the Ye family. As the biggest event for the Ye family this year, the discussions about the gathering wouldn’t quiet down for quite some time. The biggest dark horse of this gathering was unmistakably Ye Xuan, who ultimately won first place. This radically changed many of the Ye family members’ views on him. They never truly had any prejudice against Ye Xuan; their disdain stemmed from his previously decadent demeanor, but now that he had made a name for himself, they no longer had the right to look down on him. A genius was respected, no matter where they were. As the champion of the gathering, Ye Xuan was also very likely to become a candidate for Clan Leader, although Ye Tianxiong had not yet officially announced it, leaving some suspense. However, judging by prior indications, Ye Xuan was very likely to assume that position. Suddenly, Ye Xuan leapt from the bottom of the Ye family hierarchy to the upper echelons, and the inconspicuous little house that nobody inquired about was now bustling, even from early the next morning as many influential figures from Tianyang County visited with lavish gifts, aiming to secure Ye Xuan as a son-in-law. Ye Xuan naturally found these visits troublesome, but luckily he had anticipated this and had stealthily left for the Nangong family’s house before dawn to avoid these visitors. In his absence, someone else would have to deal with these headaches. Located within the same city, the Nangong family wasn’t far from the Ye family, and in less than an hour, Ye Xuan had arrived at the Nangong family’s mansion and found Nangong Bo. “Are you prepared?” Seeing Ye Xuan arrive as promised, Nangong Bo’s impression of him improved, and he asked with some concern. “Almost.” Having spent the night preparing the medicine, Ye Xuan came only after he had everything ready. Fortunately, Martial Artists’ vitality far surpassed ordinary people; otherwise, staying up all night would have left him exhausted the next day. “Very well, follow me.” With a thought, Nangong Bo had to place all his hopes on Ye Xuan; till now, apart from Ye Xuan, no one else recognized the illness, let alone propose a solution. Led by Nangong Bo, the two entered the Nangong family’s backyard, wandered about for a while, and then arrived at the small building where Nangong Yao lived. “Has Brother Ye Xuan arrived?” As the two approached the doorway, Nangong Yao’s voice emanated from inside, with a hint of joyful surprise. Ye Xuan felt somewhat helpless, “This young lady’s ears are indeed sharp, Nangong Family Head, you don’t understand medical matters, so you don’t need to come in.” “That’s right, then I’ll wait outside. Call me if anything unusual happens,” Nangong Bo nodded. It didn’t matter whether he went in or not; if anything happened inside, he would sense it even from outside. “Mm.” Ye Xuan nodded, pushing the door open to enter. The moment he entered the fragrant boudoir of the small building, a rich scent wafted towards him, refreshing and uplifting his spirits. The entire room was filled with a pink hue, creating an extremely comforting atmosphere. “Brother Ye Xuan.” Just a few steps inside, Ye Xuan saw Nangong Yao, dressed just as she had been at the Ye family clan gathering, in a black dress, although her veil had been removed, revealing a young, innocent face. While her features weren’t stunningly beautiful, they were exceedingly pure. Combined with her fragile demeanor, she unconsciously evoked a sense of tenderness. “Little chubby girl.” The words slipped out almost involuntarily, but the moment they did, Ye Xuan regretted it. Nangong Yao had grown so much, and no longer fit the description of a ‘little chubby girl.’ Referring to her as such was rather inappropriate. “From now on, I think I’ll call you Yaoer.” After thinking it over, Ye Xuan decided that ‘Yaoer’ was more suitable. Calling her Lady Nangong might sound too formal. “It’s just a nickname, it doesn’t matter,” Nangong Yao chuckled. “Alright, let’s not digress. Your Xuanyin Body has been neglected for far too long. If we don’t suppress it soon, even I might not be able to control it. Here, take this medicine I’ve prepared first.” Ye Xuan handed her a blue jade bottle, and without hesitating, she drank all the liquid inside. “What’s next?” Nangong Yao asked innocently. Seeing Nangong Yao looking like this, Ye Xuan hesitated but finally spoke, albeit with a slightly averted gaze, “Next, well, just take off your outer garment.”
