Chapter 75: Vowing Revenge
Despite having overheard some rumors before, Ye Lingyue never imagined that the entire truth was thousands of times more cruel than she had thought. If it were not for Ye Huangyu’s own admission, Ye Lingyue would not dare to believe that it was all real.
"Ling Yue, your mother knows the grievances in your heart, but the Hong Residence is nobility of Daxia, brimming with prodigies. Their strength is by no means something you can currently compete with. Your mother heard that the female disciple from that sect has also given birth to twins, a dragon and phoenix pair, two months after the marriage. Among them, the girl child is named Hong Mingzhu. She has shown extraordinary talent from a young age and is now a high-level elixir master. In the end, it all comes down to your mother being useless and unable to protect you," sighed Ye Huangyu.
Both born of the Hong Residence’s bloodline and both thirteen years old, yet the treatment of her daughter and Hong Fang’s treasured pearl could not be more different.
"Mother, you just mentioned the Elixir Realm. Does a martial artist’s cultivation not just consist of Refining Body, Postnatal, and Innate?" Ye Lingyue forcefully suppressed the rage in her heart.
"Since you’ve always stayed in Qiufeng Town, your mother didn’t speak much about it. Martial artist cultivation is vast and complex. After you went to Li City, you must have realized that a martial artist’s cultivation levels, aside from the nine levels of body refinement, also include the Postnatal Realm (Small Success, Great Success, Peak), Innate Realm (Minor Perfection, Great Perfection, Peak), Elixir Realm, Reincarnation Realm, Divine Power Realm, Void Realm, and Ghost God Realm. Within these martial realms, there are various stages as well. Your mother is not very clear on the details."
Originally, when Ye Huangyu returned with her daughter, she merely hoped to provide for her simple-minded daughter’s basic needs, ensuring a peaceful and secure life.
But now, Ye Lingyue had learned martial arts, and Ye Huangyu also discovered that Ye Lingyue’s talent in martial arts was incredibly high. She has already reached the Body Refining Eighth Layer Realm.
At this rate, the small Li City will no longer be able to contain her daughter.
Alongside delight, Ye Huangyu also felt some worry – she knew her daughter’s temperament well. Knowing of the old affairs of the Hong Residence, how could she rest and let things be.
Having heard her mother’s words, Ye Lingyue secretly thought of Hong Fang’s treasured pearl, Hong Mingzhu, whose cultivation was in the Elixir Realm.
