Hua Xian continued to hold her waist, his grip tightening slightly to make her ufortable. Despite her growing anger, she suppressed her emotions and allowed him to manipte her body.


    Hua Xian sneered, "I know you don''t believe me, but when you return, you can ask Yu Ling. She knows that when I make a promise, I deliver on it, no matter the cost to my own life."


    Yu Mei''s eyes narrowed into a re as she confronted Hua Xian, "What have you done to my daughter?" Her voice trembled with concern, fearing that her daughter had fallen prey to Hua Xian''s schemes.


    Hua Xian shed a broad smile, "Did she tell you why she wanted to enter closed-door cultivation?" he asked, his pride evident.


    Yu Mei''s eyes widened in shock, "How did you know she''s in closed-door cultivation?" Then, a realization dawned on her, "That Ice Pearl Ginseng... was it given by you?" she inquired, her voiceced with suspicion.


    Hua Xian''s smile was all the answer Yu Mei needed. He didn''t say a word, but his smug expression spoke volumes, confirming her suspicions.


    Yu Mei asked, "Why are you helping her?" She couldn''t understand Hua Xian''s motives, especially since Yu Ling was already a cultivation genius at just 21 years old.


    Currently at the 5th level of Meridian Opening Cultivation Stage, the Ice Pearl Ginseng from Hua Xian would likely propel her to at least the 9th level, making her unparalleled among her peers.


    Hua Xian replied with a sly smile, "Why can''t I help my future wife?" As he spoke, his hands continued to roam around her waist, asionally brushing against her bottom and teasingly grazing her big melons.


    Yu Mei raised an eyebrow, "You know her, she''s not interested in love, rtionships, or anything except cultivation. So, why would you think she''d be your future wife?"


    Hua Xian smiled but didn''t answer Yu Mei''s question directly. Instead, he said, "Helping Yu Ling wasn''t just my idea, but the Hua n''s decision.


    I simply chose to act more openly, so you can see the sincerity on my part. I don''t want Yu Ling to be a pawn in their hands either."


    Yu Mei asked another question, her tone serious, "Why does the Hua n think they can get their hands on Yu Ling?" Her words conveyed that she believed Hua Xian, at least to some extent, despite her initial reservations.


    Hua Xian revealed, "Unlike your Ye family''s ancestor, our ancestor is still alive and has reached the 6th level of Energy Transformation stage."


    He paused, taking feeling of her side-lemons in his hands, then continued, "He''s the one who gave me the Heaven and Earth Oath Seal Contract." Yu Mei''s eyes widened in rm, "The Hua n ancestor?" she eximed.


    "But wasn''t he severely injured 30 years ago, along with ancestor of our n? And didn''t rumours im he passed away a decade ago?"


    Hua Xian chuckled, "Those are just rumours. Has the Hua n ever confirmed anything?" Yu Mei''s eyes narrowed, "So, why has there been no news of the ancestor in recent years?"


    She asked, seeking more information, momentarily ignoring the fact that Hua Xian''s hands were still roaming, now massaging her right lemon.


    Hua Xian didn''t like being ignored, so he deliberately squeezed her Right melon, making her moan as she jerked his hand away.


    She didn''t say a word, but shot him a fierce re. Hua Xian met her gaze calmly, unfazed.


    "The reason nobody''s heard about the ancestor is that he''s no longer within the family," he revealed, holding nothing back.


    "He''s joined one of the top sects in the Central Lands." Yu Mei''s heart skipped a beat at the mention of the Central Lands, her eyes widening in shock.


    The world is known as Novaria, a realm consisting of six continents, each with its unique characteristics and inhabitants.


    Meridiania (Central Land): Thergest continent, home to powerful sects and ns.


    Thedas (Lands Beyond the Imperium): Located in the northeast, where the Ye family resides.


    Mystara (Mysterious Lands/Beast Continent): Southern continent, home to most beast ns.


    Arcanum (Land of Secrets/Forbidden Lands/Demon Land): Southwest continent, inhabited by demons, dark, and forbidden.


    Evernia (Eternal Land): Northern continent, ruled by three forces: Ice Pce (female-only sect), Eternal Sect (body cultivation), and Ice Beast Pce.


    Essos (Eastern Land/Moving Continentnd of Ancient realm): Changes position every 10 years, a true cultivationnd, home to Yu Mei''s powerful 1st-ss Yu family.


    Yu Mei''s eyes widened as she realized the Hua family''s standing was far superior to what was publicly known. Having connections with the Central Continent was impressive, but joining a top sect was apletely different level - it meant being a genius among geniuses.


    The revtion left her stunned, reevaluating her perception of the Hua family''s power and influence.


    Hua Xian sensed Yu Mei''s thoughts and seized the opportunity, sliding his hand onto her back. Before making contact, he discreetly applied a drop of Yin-Yang Spirit Oil to his hand.


    As his fingers grazed her bare skin, Yu Mei shivered, her entire body responding to the gentle touch. Hua Xian''s hand roamed her smooth skin, sending strange, thrilling sensations through her body.


    She felt an overwhelming urge to surrender, letting go of all control and sumbing to the mysterious feelings that washed over her.
