Chapter 74: Issuing the Kill Order
Su Haochen took a deep breath, and immediately, he swept away the last trace of struggle in his eyes and nodded heavily: "Father, I know what to do."
Su Hong raised the corners of her lips and said with satisfaction, "Haochen, the future of the Su family is in your hands."
...
After leaving the study, Su Haochen set off for the Ye residence.
When Ye Ning saw Su Haochen arrive at the Ye residence, she was overjoyed. She immediately changed into a beautiful long dress, drew her eyebrows and applied lipstick, and carefully dressed herself before going to see her beloved.
The two agreed to meet at Qinzhu Garden, a place in the Ye Mansion used for entertaining guests.
"Brother Haochen, you're here to see me so late." Ye Ning walked shyly to the tall figure.
It was late at night, and the light in Qinzhu Garden was dim. The young man in white stood sideways, seemingly blending into the dark shadows, with only half of his handsome face visible.
Su Haochen looked at Ye Ning and smiled gently: "I want to see you, no matter how late it is, I will come."
Ye Ning liked him even more. She shyly took Su Haochen's hand and affectionately rested her head on his strong arm.
"Ning'er, I'll discuss it with the elders in a while and see if you can also come to Lingfeng Academy for further studies," Su Haochen suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ning's face lit up with a joyful smile: "Really? Can I study with you at the academy?!"
"Hmm." Su Haochen lowered his eyes, concealing the strange glint in them: "But before that, Ning'er, I want you to do something for me."
"What is it?" Ye Ning asked obediently, tilting her head up.
“I previously accepted a Grade 3 Spirit Gathering Pill from Ye Fei,” Su Haochen said calmly. “Now that I have a formal marriage agreement with you, she wants me to return the Spirit Gathering Pill to her.”
Upon hearing that name, resentment quickly gathered in Ye Ning's eyes: "Any cultivator knows that such a treasure cannot be hidden away; it must be consumed and absorbed in time."
"So I can't return the Spirit Gathering Pill to her." Su Haochen raised an eyebrow. "That day at the academy, she publicly humiliated me and demanded that I pay 500,000 gold coins as compensation for the Spirit Gathering Pill..."
Ye Ning gritted her teeth, her resentment growing stronger: "That damned little bitch, how dare she humiliate Brother Hao Chen like this! You are the pride of the academy, what is Ye Fei?!"
"I received word that Ye Fei is currently in the Forest of Fireflies." Su Haochen took Ye Ning's hands in his hands and gently kissed them. "At this moment, I am filled with hatred for Ye Fei. We were destined to be apart, yet she treated me like this, without even a shred of mercy..."
"I can't swallow this insult, I want her to pay for it! But the Su family is no longer what it used to be, and my father and I are powerless to change it..."
Ye Ning looked at him intently, her tone firm: "Brother Haochen, don't worry! I'll talk to Father about this later. There are many experts inside and outside the Ye family. Even if Ye Fei has the cultivation of a fifth-level spiritual master, she can't withstand the siege of so many experts!"
"I will dispel the resentment in Brother Haochen's heart..."
Ye Ning hugged Su Haochen tightly, her cheek pressed against the boy's chest, hatred and murderous intent constantly surfacing in her eyes.
Ye Fei... This is a kill order issued by the family. You have no choice but to die!
You stay in hell and witness my happiness with Haochen...

Forest of Fireflies.
At this time, Ye Fei was unaware that she had already been targeted by the Ye and Su clans.
She was sitting under a tree when she suddenly sneezed.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Li Yuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, heard the sound, opened his eyes, and asked in a low voice.
