Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Such a Scumbag Father

"Boss Sha, you must avenge my father." Song Guangyi lost his father overnight, as well as the identity of the Young Master of the Song Family, and he blamed it all on the Ye Family and Ye Huangyu and her daughter.

He thought that considering the friendship between him and Young Master Sha Zhan, Boss Sha would surely help.

Little did he know that Sha Kuang was infuriated these days.

After being tricked by Ye Lingyue, Sha Kuang used the so-called "Divine Elixir" to barely save his son’s life.

With the father and son’s nitpicking nature, their first order of business was to settle the score with Ye Lingyue. Unfortunately, Ye Lingyue had returned to Qiufeng Town, so Sha Kuang set his sights on the Ye Huangxuan family. Little did he know, Lan Cai’er took the initiative and sent soldiers from the governor’s mansion to guard the Ye Residence tightly.

He didn’t dare to directly confront the military forces of the governor, so he held his breath with anger, nearly causing himself internal injuries.

"Young Master Song, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but Qiufeng Town is not exactly my territory. Moreover, as you mentioned, the Ye Family now has Ye Huangyu, who is an Innate Expert. For our Mountain and Sea Gang to help you take back your territory, it would come at a great cost. Right now, I’m afraid you can’t afford that price," sneered Sha Kuang.

The Mountain and Sea Gang was never about honest business; aside from robbing caravans, they also took on jobs involving revenge and assassinations.

If Song Guangyi were still the Young Master Song of the past, spending tens of thousands of Gold would have motivated Sha Kuang to accept the deal.

But now, Song Guangyi was penniless, and with the Ye Family backed by the governor’s mansion, Sha Kuang wasn’t about to do something foolish.

"Boss Sha, you probably don’t know yet—there’s a Xuanyin Jade Vein hidden in the Ye Family’s mines. If you take down the Ye Family, that Xuanyin Jade Vein will be yours," Master Lian knew Sha Kuang was a greedy man.

Indeed, Sha Kuang’s expression changed dramatically once he heard about the Xuanyin Jade Vein belonging to the Ye Family.

"Is this true? Haha, Xuanyin Jade Vein, what right does a clan as small as the Ye Family have to possess such a treasure? Who are you? How do you know about the affairs of the Ye Family?" While Sha Kuang was overjoyed, he also noticed something peculiar about Master Lian.

This young man, with a thin figure, was surrounded by a mysterious power.

Even Sha Kuang, as an Innate Expert, felt uneasy in his presence.

"I am Lian Bi, a former Guest Elder of the Song Residence and also a Quasi Alchemist. If Boss Sha appreciates my abilities, I can also assist the boss," he said.

Upon hearing the man was merely a Quasi Alchemist, Sha Kuang snorted disdainfully and was about to send him away.

But at that moment, Master Lian flipped his palm, revealing several talismanic cranes in his hand, different from the Alchemist cranes associated with Ye Lingyue before. They were black, and in the darkness of the night, they could stealthily infiltrate enemy camps, completely undetected.

A few days later, when Ye Lingyue and others returned to the Ye Residence and heard the news of the Song Family burning down Qibei Slope, everyone was scared into a cold sweat.

Without Ye Huangyu, the Ye Family would not have escaped disaster this time.

Learning that her mother recovered and even broke through to the Innate realm, there was no one happier than Ye Lingyue.

"Mother, there’s something I’ve always wanted to ask you. Why did the Hong Residence kick us out all those years ago?" Ye Lingyue, seeing her mother’s rejuvenated appearance, finally voiced the question that had been weighing on her heart.

According to Daxia Laws, to divorce a wife, one must first violate one of the seven rules of divorce.

Ye Huangyu had only been married into the Hong Residence for a year, having just given birth to a child, when she was inexplicably cast aside.

Today, she must have a clear answer.

Seeing her daughter’s eager eyes, Ye Huangyu knew she could no longer hide the past.

She sighed, recounting the events from fourteen years ago.

After her break with Ye Gu, Ye Huangyu married into the Hong Residence.

However, due to her status as a merchant’s daughter, she could not enter through the main gate of the Hong Residence.

On the day of her wedding, she was carried in through a side entrance in a small sedan chair.

Not long after she married into the Hong Residence, Ye Huangyu realized that no one there accepted her, let alone treated her as a Young Madam.

The elders in the Hong Residence believed that, though Hong Fang was a bastard, he was still a descendant of a Marquis Mansion, while Ye Huangyu was merely the daughter of a lowly commoner.

Had it not been for Ye Huangyu’s seductive tricks, beguiling Hong Fang, he could have at least taken a noble’s daughter as his legitimate wife.

But Ye Huangyu paid no heed to these gossips; in her eyes, as long as Hong Fang cherished her and their daughter, that was enough.

Yet, what Ye Huangyu had never expected was that during his friendly dealings with her, Hong Fang met a female disciple from a Great Sect, Zhuge Rou.

Hong Fang played both women, resulting in both having his children.

Afterwards, everyone in the Hong Residence came to know of this.

The Hong Residence Master declared that to avoid offending the Great Sect, Hong Fang must marry Zhuge Rou. If Ye Huangyu bore a son, she could stay at the Hong Residence as a concubine, but if it was a daughter, the child would only be a servant.

To secure his favoured position within the family, Hong Fang did not hesitate to welcome Zhuge Rou with a grand bridal sedan.

"The day Hong Fang got married was the first day after I gave birth. Desperate to see Hong Fang, I dragged my postnatal body, holding you in my arms, and knelt outside their bridal chamber all night, just begging him to glance at you once, to give you a name," Ye Huangyu’s voice grew weaker as she spoke.

This humiliating past had crushed the once incredibly proud woman, bending her spine.

For so many years, this incident coiled around Ye Huangyu’s heart like a venomous snake.

"Who would have known that Zhuge Rou, annoyed by the crying child, would send an old servant to snatch you from your swaddling clothes and violently throw you to the ground, causing you to become mentally impaired."

Ye Huangyu argued with the old servant and was also injured by them.

What chilled Ye Huangyu’s heart even more was not that Hong Fang failed to intervene, but that the very next morning, he had a divorce letter written and ordered Ye Huangyu and her daughter to be expelled from the Hong Residence.

Not a single person in the Hong Residence tried to stop this—we instead, there were countless people kicking us while we were down.

Ye Huangyu, holding her injured child, fainted on the street and was later saved by the kind passerby.

Later, it was Ye Huangyun who heard the news, stealthily went to the Imperial City, and brought mother and daughter back.

As for that scumbag Hong Fang, he thrived with pettiness, and with Zhuge Rou’s support, rose high in the Hong Residence; it is said that he’s now the third most powerful person there, after the Hong Residence Master and the Eldest Son.

And Zhuge Rou later bore Hong Fang two daughters and a son.

"Mother, rest assured, I will not let off Hong Fang, that despicable mistress, or the Hong Residence. All the grievances we mother and daughter have suffered over the years—I will reclaim them one by one," Ye Lingyue’s face bore a solemn and dark expression, uncharacteristic of her age; her fingers tightly clenched together, knuckles cracking ominously.

At this moment, Ye Lingyue resembled a ferocious beast poised for the hunt, her eyes brimming with intense murderous intent.

Such a daughter, Ye Huangyu had never seen before, and even now, as a Postnatal Master, Ye Huangyu couldn’t help but be startled by Ye Lingyue’s gaze.

This child...
