Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: Dropping Favorability

Seeing that Sister Yue had finally smiled again, Ye Fei thought his chance had come and quickly moved closer. But Sister Yue didn’t give him a chance to ingratiate himself. Before he could say anything, she turned her face away sharply, not even looking at him.

Ye Fei couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. He turned to Jiang Manjun and said, "Senior Sister, are you still mad at me?"

After parting with the other female disciples, Jiang Manjun’s feeling of discomfort had quickly faded, but she was too embarrassed to reconcile with Ye Fei right away. She put on a stern face and huffed, "Who said?"

"Good Senior Sister, I’ve avenged you and let out your anger. What more could you possibly be unhappy about? Can you tell me?" Ye Fei said with a wry smile.

Thinking back to the first time he met her, she had been so impressive and spirited.

Why was she acting like a sulking little girl now?

Could it be that she had a split personality?

Where was Jiang Manjun unhappy with Ye Fei?

Especially after he had defeated that Great Ascension stage master from Wudang without even breaking a sweat, leaving him coughing up blood, which had made her heart race with admiration.

But she couldn’t say that out loud, of course. After thinking for a moment, she huffed and said, "Why didn’t you kill that old Taoist? You have no idea how despicable that guy is. It’s bad enough that he slandered me, but he even dared to slander my mom. Such a jerk deserves to die a thousand times over!"

Hearing Jiang Manjun’s words, the three senior wives, except for Zhu Yuyan, couldn’t help but smirk. Especially Hua Nongyue, her strange expression was quite obvious. They were all thinking to themselves that while the old Taoist had indeed slandered her, he hadn’t slandered her mom.

Shen Huiya and the other two women, though still virgins, knew quite a bit about sex.

Because they practiced the Xuan Yin Art, their desires were much stronger than those of ordinary women.

They had all studied the subject carefully and even engaged in playful games among themselves when they couldn’t resist their urges—sometimes in pairs, sometimes all together. So they knew exactly what a woman looked like after an orgasm.

When they first saw Zhu Yuyan, they immediately knew she had just had an orgasm and was extremely satisfied. None of them had ever looked so radiant when they played together.

They couldn’t help but feel envious. That was why Hua Nongyue had impulsively made her request to Ye Fei, only to be flatly refused. Naturally, they were upset.

Jiang Manjun had only been looking for an excuse, but seeing the expressions of the three aunts, she couldn’t help but feel suspicious. Her beautiful eyes began to dart back and forth between Ye Fei and Zhu Yuyan with a hint of doubt.

Ye Fei’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly said, "That’s exactly why I didn’t kill him. If I had, I would have given him a quick death. Now, with his performance today, he’s surely in for a rough time when he gets back. He’ll lose his position as the leader, and after being in power for so long, being stripped of authority will be worse than death. Besides, he doesn’t dare to just end it all, so he’ll have to live in agony for the rest of his life. Isn’t that better than killing him?"

He spoke quickly, trying to distract his senior sister while also giving a stern look to the three senior wives who were still smirking. He knew exactly what they were thinking.

They were probably getting back at him for refusing them in the car earlier. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be acting so strangely. They hadn’t just found out about him and Senior Wife Zhu, so their behavior was a reaction to his earlier rejection.

"Alright, I guess you have a point," Jiang Manjun reluctantly agreed, but she had other thoughts in her mind.

At the martial arts conference, she had realized that her mother, who had been chaste for twenty years, seemed to have a man again. She couldn’t accept it at the time, and with her strong personality, she was willing to die at the conference.

Later, when her mother risked her life to save her, Jiang Manjun was so moved that she quickly forgave her mother.

But she still couldn’t let go completely and was very curious about who her mother’s man was.

Over the past few months, Jiang Manjun had been keeping an eye on her mother’s movements but hadn’t seen her secretly meet any man.

Initially, this had almost made Jiang Manjun forget about the whole thing. But now, seeing the expressions of the aunts, she was reminded of it again and noticed more inconsistencies.

For example, since they had all come to Wanghai together, why did her mother insist on seeing Ye Fei alone?

Even if she thought it was too troublesome to bring everyone, she should at least have brought Jiang Manjun and the three aunts.

Also, Ye Fei and her mother had taken way too long to come back. It had been nearly three hours since they made the phone call. In that time, anything could have happened.

Could it be that my mom’s man is my junior brother? Jiang Manjun thought to herself, suddenly making a plan to keep a close eye on her mother and catch them red-handed!

Originally, the idea of her mother having an affair with her apprentice would have been even harder to accept than with another man.

But Jiang Manjun didn’t notice that after coming to this conclusion, she didn’t feel the same heartbreak and anger as before. Instead, she had a mischievous urge, without even thinking about what she would do if she caught them.

Seeing her senior wife’s expression, though still a bit strange, had stopped dwelling on the matter, Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he knew he couldn’t hide his relationship with his senior wife from his senior sister forever, and she might find out soon, it was still too sudden.

He was worried it would cause trouble for Senior Wife Zhu. So as long as his senior sister didn’t blurt it out right now, everything would be fine.

After smoothing things over with his senior sister, Ye Fei turned to Hua Nongyue: "Senior Sister Yue, no matter what I’ve done wrong, please forgive me this once. Look, even Senior Sister Manjun has forgiven me."

"Humph!"

Hua Nongyue turned her head away sharply again, like a sulking little girl, then took Jiang Manjun’s hand and said, "Manjun, let’s go check out that side!"

Seeing Hua Nongyue and Jiang Manjun walking ahead hand in hand, Hua Wuying couldn’t help but apologize to Ye Fei, "Ye Fei, I’m sorry. Little Yue has been spoiled by our family and us..."

"Senior Sister Shadow, as an elder, you shouldn’t be apologizing to me like this," Ye Fei quickly stopped Hua Wuying’s apology and said with a smile, "Besides, Senior Sister Yue is quite adorable when she acts like this."

"Uh..."

Ye Fei hesitated. Sister Yue’s request was a golden opportunity for him.

If it had been an hour earlier, he would have jumped at the chance to show off, maybe even engage in some mutual attraction with the senior wives, or even a wild foursome.

But Ye Fei had promised Zhu Yuyan that he wouldn’t use the Xuan Yang Art in front of the other senior wives until they fell in love with him.

Although Sister Yue had brought it up herself, he still needed to check with Senior Wife Zhu. So he glanced at her through the rearview mirror.

Zhu Yuyan wasn’t her usual authoritative self anymore. Her cheeks were slightly puffed out, sulking. When she caught Ye Fei looking at her, she playfully glared at him with her beautiful eyes, her gaze full of warning.

Among the four senior wives, Ye Fei loved Senior Wife Zhu the most. Seeing that she disapproved, he reluctantly said, "Well, I’m driving right now. Maybe we can talk about it later."

As soon as Ye Fei said that, Hua Nongyue’s expression changed dramatically. Her slightly flushed face turned pale.

Having practiced the Xuan Yin Art for years and knowing the history of the Demon Sect well, she was fully aware of what it meant to run the Yin and Yang techniques simultaneously.

Her suggestion, though seemingly out of curiosity, was actually a way of expressing her love and even seeking intimacy with Ye Fei.

Even though this was their first meeting, the Hua sisters had already developed a strong liking for Ye Fei based on descriptions from Zhu Yuyan, Shen Huiya, and Jiang Manjun.

The unique nature of the Xuan Yin Art had led them to see Ye Fei as their destined one and one true love. Moreover, they had been driven nearly mad by the side effects of the Xuan Yin Art, which was why Hua Wuying had made such a request as soon as they got to know each other a bit. She wanted to solidify their relationship quickly. But she never expected Ye Fei to refuse.

It was like a naturally beautiful girl confessing to a guy she thought liked her, only to be flatly rejected. You can imagine how Hua Nongyue felt.

If Ye Fei could see the favorability ratings others had for him, he would notice that while Senior Wife Zhu’s remained maxed out, the other three senior wives’ ratings had dropped from over 90 to much lower.

Sister Yue’s had fallen below the passing line, while Shen Huiya’s and Hua Wuying’s, though not as bad, had shifted from a flirty red to a distant blue.

The reason was simple: their situations were similar to Hua Nongyue’s. By rejecting her, Ye Fei had effectively rejected them as well.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the car became heavy.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuyan was so regretful that she wanted to slap herself. She had always thought she wouldn’t feel jealous. Back in the day, when Jiang Haichen married Shen Huiya and the Hua sisters one after another, she hadn’t minded at all. Instead, she had taken good care of her three younger sisters.

But just now, when Hua Nongyue made that request, Zhu Yuyan had felt a pang of jealousy for the first time in her life.

Driven by this unpleasant feeling, she had warned Ye Fei without even considering the consequences.

Ye Fei, unaware of the specifics of their relationship, thought that being reserved would win their favor. But things had gone wrong, leading to the current awkward situation.

Looking back, Zhu Yuyan felt more and more regretful. She knew Ye Fei had other women, so why did she feel jealous of her sisters, who were closer than blood?

If only she could turn back time, she would change that warning glance to an encouraging one, and everything would be fine.

But even someone as capable as Ye Fei couldn’t control the flow of time, let alone Zhu Yuyan. So she tried to make small talk to restore the previous harmonious atmosphere.

After a while, Shen Huiya and Hua Wuying began chatting and laughing with Zhu Yuyan again, but their conversations with Ye Fei were less affectionate than before. As for Hua Nongyue, she sat there with a pale face, staring down, lost in thought.

Half an hour later, the two cars stopped at the south gate of the estate. Ye Fei didn’t rush to get out. He turned to the still-sulking Hua Nongyue and said, "Sister Yue, I..."

"Humph!" Hua Nongyue ignored Ye Fei and turned her face away sharply before he could finish.

With no other choice, Ye Fei gave up on mending fences with Sister Yue for the moment. He got out of the car, called over a few hidden artificial experts, had them lead the way, and entered the small courtyard attached to the estate with the members of the Demon Sect.

Though it was just an annex, the courtyard was well-equipped and spacious. There were plenty of quiet, secluded rooms underground for seclusion, more than enough to accommodate not just the current fifty-odd people but even all the remaining disciples, elders, and reclusive masters from the Demon Sect’s original headquarters.

The senior wives were very satisfied with Ye Fei’s arrangements, and the rest of the people let go of any remaining resistance. Especially the young and beautiful female disciples, who were in their prime and loved the hustle and bustle of the world.

The Demon Sect’s original headquarters were deep in the mountains, which couldn’t compare to this place. After seeing their new home, their favorability towards Ye Fei increased even more. As a result, Jiang Manjun’s expression seemed even more sour.

After settling the members of the Demon Sect, Ye Fei personally led the senior wives and his senior sister into the interior of the estate. Since they were all highly skilled in martial arts, they didn’t drive but walked instead, which also allowed them to better appreciate the layout of the estate.

Ye Fei had left his aunt’s house late in the afternoon. After a long, intense session with his senior wives and watching the drama unfold, it was almost dark by now.

On this late winter evening, a thin layer of mist had risen in the estate, adding a hazy, mysterious charm to the already beautiful place, making it seem like a fairyland.

Even the five women, who were used to the mountain scenery, couldn’t help but feel refreshed and delighted.

Thinking about living in such a beautiful place in the future, their moods improved significantly.

Even Hua Nongyue and Jiang Manjun, who had been in bad spirits, began to smile and lighten up.
