Halfway up the mountain, there was a group of five cultivators, the leader of which was Ye Jian, the young master of the Ye family and the eldest son of Ye Xiongba, the local tyrant of Wutong City.

Ye Jian has a top-grade spiritual root of fire attribute, and he completed the foundation building in just one year. Ye Xiongba is proud of him and praises him in front of and behind others.

Over time, Ye Jian became the pride of the family. All the good things were given to him, and he was never wronged.

He didn't like Qin Xiyao and despised her for being useless and having no backing. He thought marrying her would bring shame to him and make him unable to hold his head up in front of his clansmen.

Ye Xiongba couldn't stand his nagging and reluctantly agreed to his cancellation of the engagement with Qin Xiyao.

Ye Xiongba will never forget the life-saving grace Qin Xiyao's father gave him. Ye Jian despised Qin Xiyao, so he had to compensate him in other ways.

Not long ago, Ye Jian discovered traces of a spirit ape in Baicao Valley and brought people to catch it several times. In the process of besieging the little white ape, he was almost able to catch it each time, but his efforts were in vain and the little white ape still slipped away.

The little white ape had escaped from him time and again, and the Imperial Capital Academy was about to start school, so Ye Jian didn't have the patience to play hide-and-seek with the little white ape.

He was looking for animal traps everywhere. A few days ago, he saw someone selling an animal trap - a gold-thread talisman water trap on Lantao.com. He was thinking about the little white ape. He knew that the other party sold it to him for 10 million K coins, which was five or six times higher than the market price. In order to catch the little white ape, he was willing to give up his money!

Lantao.com is a website established by the General Association of Cultivators to facilitate online transactions among cultivators.

After Ye Jian placed the order on Lantao.com, he kept urging the seller to ship the goods. In order to get the 10 million K coins, the seller worked overnight to expedite the production of the golden silk talisman water clip.

Ye Jian was very satisfied after receiving the goods, and immediately came to Baicao Valley with the golden talisman water clip.

Place golden silk talisman water clips in places where the little white ape often appears.

If it hadn't been for the sudden thunder, strong wind and heavy rain yesterday evening, he would have planned to wait nearby for the little white ape to fall into his trap!

At home, Ye Jian couldn't sleep well all night because of the thunder in his ears. He was always worried about whether the little white ape had fallen into the trap!

In the morning, before daybreak, he rolled out of the couch and rushed to Baicao Valley to get food.

Qin Yuwei was always thinking about the position of the young lady of the Ye family. After learning from Qin Peng that Qin Xiyao agreed to cancel the engagement with Ye Jian, she got up early and came to the Ye family to share the news of Qin Xiyao's cancellation of the engagement with Ye Jian.

Ye Jian was in a hurry to go to Baicao Valley to collect the prey and had no time to flirt with Qin Yuwei. However, he wanted to know what she was up to by coming to Ye's house to find him so early in the morning, so he took Qin Yuwei and three bodyguards to Baicao Valley.

Qin Yuwei felt a little aggrieved after getting rejected early in the morning, but she couldn't show it on her face.

In the eyes of the Qin family, she has always been a gentle, sensible and talented lady.

Having established her character for so long, she would not lose her composure just because of Ye Jian's cold face and act out of control in front of the Qin family.

Ye Jian said he was going to Baicao Valley.

She would say to Ye Jian, "Let me go with you!" I heard from my aunt that your cultivation has advanced recently. You have been practicing secretly. Unlike me, I just slack off every day and have not made any progress in my cultivation!

After hearing her words, Ye Jian was obviously very happy, but he said: "Don't listen to my mother's nonsense, she is fooling you! Oh! I just feel bored and practice for a while!"

Ye Jian had no intention of taking Qin Yuwei to Baicao Valley.

Qin Weiyu would then act coquettishly with him: "Brother Ye, you're so mean! You've clearly advanced in your cultivation, but you're hiding it! I just want to see how awesome you are!"

Having said that, Ye Jian had no choice but to take Qin Yuwei to Baicao Valley.

Qin Yuwei and Ye Jian went to Baicao Valley and were very excited along the way.

She held Ye Jian's arm with an intimate look on her face.

At first, Ye Jian was a little resistant, worried that people would see him and gossip about him. After all, he and Qin Xiyao were still engaged!

But every time he gently pushed away Qin Yuwei's hands that were holding his arms, within a quarter of an hour, Qin Yuwei would unconsciously hold his arms again.

After doing this a few times, Ye Jian let Qin Yuwei hold his arm.

He was hoping for a lucky break: There was no way that loser Qin Xiyao would come to Baicao Valley, right?

"Brother Ye! My useless cousin has agreed to break off the engagement with you!"

"It's a good thing you weren't there at the time. Otherwise, a few days ago, when my cousin heard that she was going to break off the engagement with you, she would have tried to commit suicide!"

"My father saw that her parents were both dead and that no one in the family paid any attention to her. He felt sorry for her and tried to comfort her. But she actually kicked our family out of the villa! She even threatened my father to arrange for her to go to Imperial Capital College."

Qin Yu was muttering to herself, and when she saw Ye Jian's handsome face with a gloomy expression, she was secretly happy!

Ye Jian must have heard what she said!

"That loser is going to the Imperial Capital College?" Ye Jian asked with interest. Under his thick eyelashes, a pair of cold eyes looked into the distance cunningly.

"Yes! She asked my dad to arrange it, otherwise she won't break off the engagement with you. Tell me, what can my dad do?" Qin Yuwei was very depressed. Every time she spoke, the air was filled with the smell of jealousy.

"It seems this loser is quite shameless! Since she wants to embarrass herself so much, then I'll let my dad make good arrangements for her!"

Ye Jianqi was amused!

He had thought that Qin Xiyao would make financial demands if she broke off the engagement with him, but he had never thought that she would use her studies at the Imperial Capital College as a bargaining chip!

If the request is just about money, as long as it's not too excessive, he will satisfy her!

The Imperial Capital Academy is the only top-notch school for cultivating immortals in Xuankong Continent. Even if Qin Xiyao wants to study there, the Imperial Capital Academy may not be willing to accept her!

Ye Jian was just waiting to see the show unfold as Qin Xiyao made the first choice that was beyond her capabilities!

"Hey! Brother Ye! Don't blame my cousin! After all, she's the only one left at home now. She's really pitiful! Her spiritual roots are damaged and she can't practice. We're all studying at the Imperial Capital Academy, so it's understandable that she's jealous!"

Qin Yuwei had a hint of tea in her voice, but Ye Jian didn't notice it. Instead, he thought she was very considerate and always thought carefully about Qin Xiyao's affairs.

If Qin Xiyao was half as good as Qin Yuwei and considered her more, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to break off the engagement with her.

It’s not easy to be the young lady of the Ye family!

As the designated heir of the Ye family, he cannot afford to lose face!

Qin Yuwei is such a good girl! Why isn't she the one he's engaged to?

Thinking of this, Ye Jian suddenly said softly, "Weiwei! What do you think of Brother Ye?"

Qin Yuwei didn't expect Ye Jian to ask her this suddenly. Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, like a deer running around.

"Brother Ye is great!" Qin Yuwei buried her head in Ye Jian's shoulder, her little face as red as a big red apple!

The hands that were holding Ye Jian's arms held tighter!

"Huff!" The sound of a monkey crying suddenly came from the valley.

Ye Jian's eyes lit up and he became excited instantly.

"Let's hurry up! The little white ape looks like he's been caught in a trap!"

"Okay!" Qin Yuwei didn't know why Ye Jian wanted to catch the little white ape, but Ye Jian didn't say it, so she didn't ask.
