Chapter 518: Returning to the Night Mansion
Ye Fei: "..."
"Moreover, the Eight Desolate Divine Realm is filled with rare and precious treasures. As his nemesis, I would enter the space he created and take away the treasures that belong to him..."
Li Yuan didn't continue speaking, but instead smiled dismissively.
Ye Fei was speechless. This was really... cough, really a bit mean!
I never expected Li Yuan to have such a cunning side.
"Why are you suddenly asking about this?" Li Yuan looked at her, puzzled.
Ye Fei shook her head: "It's nothing, I just suddenly became curious about what happened before I met you... I want to know more about you."
Looking at the girl's smiling face, Li Yuan's heart stirred, and he kissed her lips again.
"From now on, I will tell you whatever you want to know."
Li Yuan affectionately touched her forehead with his, his purple eyes filled with tender affection as he gazed at her.

The next day.
Ye Fei changed into a flamboyant and bright red dress and returned to the Ye residence with Li Yuan.
As soon as they entered the gates of the Ye residence, they heard Ye Rui's angry voice booming from inside the hall:
"I entrusted the Ye clan to you, not so you could abuse your power for personal gain! Aren't you afraid of being exposed for all the stupid things you've done?!"
Ye Fei paused slightly, then quickened her pace and entered the hall.
Ye Rui was furious when a bright red figure suddenly caught his eye. He was startled, then his face lit up with joy: "Little Fei'er?!"
Upon hearing this address, Ye Jingyao, who was kneeling in front of Ye Rui, suddenly stiffened. He turned around abruptly and saw Ye Fei slowly stepping into the hall, looking calm and composed.
Upon seeing Ye Rui, Ye Fei immediately flashed a defiant smile: "Old man, I've come back to visit you!"
"You brat, you have no manners!" Ye Rui said with a laugh. "You should call me Grandpa!"
Ye Fei glanced at Ye Jingyao kneeling on the ground, met his gaze for a brief two seconds, then looked away as if she didn't recognize him, and walked up to Ye Rui with a smile: "Alright, alright, Grandpa!"
"Let Grandpa take a look!" Ye Rui looked Ye Fei up and down. The girl's face was still childlike, just like when she left the Ye residence, but she had obviously been eating and drinking well and didn't look so thin anymore. "You brat, it's been so long since you came back! Grandpa missed you so much!"
Ye Fei smiled and explained, "Sorry, sorry, I really didn't have time. The Spirit Master Exchange Conference is right after the Training Month ends, and the academy takes it very seriously. It just ended a few days ago, so I came back to see you."
Ye Rui's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Quick, quick, go talk to Grandpa!"
The old man hurriedly grabbed Ye Fei's hand and was about to walk towards the courtyard when he stopped abruptly after taking his first step across the threshold. He turned back and glared at Ye Jingyao angrily: "Kneel down! Don't get up!"
After uttering a harsh remark, the grandfather and grandson walked away contentedly, and Li Yuan naturally followed.
Only Ye Jingyao remained kneeling on the solid floor of the hall, his back stiff, his hands clenched tightly in his sleeves, the cool breeze blowing through the hall seeming to mock him mercilessly.
...
In the courtyard, in the small pavilion in front of the sycamore tree, Ye Fei slowly recounted to Ye Rui everything that had happened over the past few months.
After hearing this, Ye Rui was overjoyed and beamed with delight: "Great! My little Fei'er is so amazing! So, little Fei'er, what level of Spirit Master are you now?"
Ye Fei poured Ye Rui a cup of steaming tea and smiled, "I just advanced to the seventh level of Spirit King last night."
Ye Rui was so shocked he almost spilled his tea: "You... how could you advance so quickly?!"
When Xiao Fei'er came back last time, she was only a level 5 Spirit Master. How come she's already a level 7 Spirit King in just a few months?!
