Shen Han’s great-grandfather’s words scared Yao Wanning.
"Great-grandfather, could it be that you also..."
Seeing her great-grandfather nod, Yao Wanning now understood that the reason she was this way was due to inheritance...
These are the traditions of the Yao Family.
After knowing this, the panic in her heart seed to disappear all at once.
Yao Wanning used to think she was an anomaly, but now she feels it’s perfectly normal.
"Feeling better now?"
"Yes, now that I know it’s not a personal issue, I have nothing to be anxious about.
But, great-grandfather...
Is it because that person is our destined one that this is happening?"
Yao Wanning seed to have thought of sothing, and she asked tentatively.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Yao unconsciously furrowed his brow, but after a mont, his expression relaxed.
He still wore a kind smile on his face.
"You’ve got quite the imagination, child. This is just your body’s reaction.
Besides, there’s no such thing as a destined one.
The person destined for you, Wanning, should be the one you think and care about in your heart. Don’t let these thoughts sway you."
Upon hearing her great-grandfather’s words, Yao Wanning also nodded.
At this mont, she indeed felt much better.
At least she no longer felt the earlier panic and confird that she was normal.
"Since you’ve figured it out, I’ll take my leave now. There’s still a lot to be done these days."
Yao Wanning didn’t make a fuss. She understood well how complex her great-grandfather’s duties were as the patriarch.
Then, stepping on a magical artifact, Patriarch Yao flew off into the distance.
But after flying a certain distance, he turned around and looked back a few tis.
At this mont, there was a trace of gravity in his eyes, as if he were worried about sothing.
A day passed, at Patriarch Yao’s private residence.
A pond was built in the courtyard, and Patriarch Yao held a fishing rod in his hand.
Fishing is supposed to be a leisure activity, but sitting by the pond, Patriarch Yao had a furrowed brow.
Although Yao Wanning no longer seed anxious, he, as the patriarch, began to worry.
Before long, two figures flew in from afar.
"Have you found anything?"
After the two landed, they greeted him and said:
"We’ve found out. That person nad Shen Han is not a disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect but soone from Star Tower."
"Star Tower? Never heard of it."
Patriarch Yao’s reaction seed anticipated by the two in front of him.
"Grandfather, it’s normal that you haven’t heard of it. That Star Tower is just a sect from the Outer Domain.
It holds no reputation within the Inner Domain."
The Outer Domain is vast, with countless sects in every direction.
Even just rembering the larger ones requires considerable effort.
Besides, why should the Inner Domain forces know about the Outer Domain sects?
"What do you think of this, that child Wanning already has so feelings.
Speak up, you two are Wanning’s parents; you also have the right to make this decision for her."
Upon hearing this, Yao Zhonggu stepped forward.
"As Wanning’s father, I’ll state my position first. I disagree with this matter.
Not to ntion whether this Shen Han is excellent, just his identity is uncertain for us.
The spies we sent out couldn’t ascertain which family he ca from.
They only said he ca from a place like the Northern Mountain Domain, such a remote location.
With an unclear identity, how can we let him near Wanning?
There’s also a possibility that this Shen Han might be sent by so force with ill intentions."
Patriarch Yao furrowed his brow but didn’t comnt on Yao Zhonggu’s views.
Then he looked at the woman beside him.
"The granddaughter-in-law agrees with Zhonggu’s view, such a person with an unknown background shouldn’t be allowed to contact Wanning."
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Yao put down the fishing rod in his hand.
"But Wanning is not soone you or I can easily dissuade.
Once she has decided on sothing, when have we elders ever managed to persuade her...?"
Beside him, the two seed to have already decided.
"Grandfather, Zhonggu and I already discussed this on the way here.
The simplest way is to deal with this Shen Han.
Soone from such a remote and wild place probably had bad intentions from the start when eting Wanning."
Yao Wanning’s mother said this as Yao Zhonggu nodded.
Clearly, they had already planned this on their way here.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Yao stroked the long beard on his chin.
There was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Taking action against that child Shen Han is indeed an easy way.
But he just helped us unravel the Secret Realm, and attacking him now.
Seems sowhat inappropriate..."
Patriarch Yao didn’t quite agree with this thod.
Obviously, it’s his great-granddaughter who’s taken a liking to soone else and now wanted to take a fatal action against them.
Moreover, the person had shown kindness to Snow Mountain House, as they had been researching that Secret Realm for years.
They invited many people and even publicly invited geniuses from two sects.
Yet none of them could solve it.
In the end, it was this Shen Han who ca and resolved the issue.
But now, they still intended to act against soone.
Thinking of this, Patriarch Yao found this thod rather vile.
Seeing this, Yao Zhonggu spoke again.
"Grandfather, you needn’t worry, we won’t have to do this ourselves.
We just need to speak with the Jun Family, let them find a way to handle it.
Throughout the process, there will be no trace of our Yao Family or Snow Mountain House."
This was indeed a thod.
In Patriarch Yao’s view, it’s feasible, though it felt constraining in his heart...
"Then what about the quota for training in the Forbidden Land?"
"The quota ant for the Celestial Sword Sect should continue to go to them.
I believe as long as the quota remains, losing one disciple shouldn’t be a big issue.
If it really involves us, at worst, we can also give them next year’s qualification for training in the Forbidden Land.
Grandfather, you know that Wanning’s identity is special.
We need to protect her a little better.
Besides, haven’t we already chosen the young man from the Jun Family?
If at this ti Wanning changes her heart towards soone else, it might be hard for you to explain."
After listening to the statent from his grandson and granddaughter-in-law, Patriarch Yao hesitated for a long ti but finally nodded.
"Tell the Jun Family to spare that child.
Prepare so compensation to at least ensure he lives a comfortable later life..."
Yao Zhonggu listened and could only nod helplessly.
Then, he and his wife left together.
On the way out, he seed unable to hold back his grumbling.
"Grandfather is always so soft-hearted...
To accomplish great things, one mustn’t get entangled in such trivial matters."
Beside him, Yao Wanning’s mother gently tugged at his hand.
"Grandfather isn’t entirely wrong after all, the person did help us..."
"So what?
He can only bla his own bad luck; is it that easy to enter a grand family?
Wanting to get involved with our Wanning, he should first check his identity, see if his fate is qualified."
