Chapter 548: The Hidden World 4
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The moment Ye Leng’an’s feet touched the ground, she felt a rush of abundant spiritual energy, as if every pore on her body was expanding at that moment.
“This is the Hidden World!” Ye Lengan couldn’t help but show a hint of excitement on her face. “The spiritual energy here is truly rich; it’s indeed an excellent place for cultivation. 1 believe that most of the world’s spiritual energy is concentrated here!”
Although the spiritual energy here couldn’t pare to the cultivation world, it was undoubtedly many times denser than the mortal world. Evidently, someone intentionally gathered most of the world’s spiritual energy to this place, creating an ideal environment for cultivation.
“Indeed, the entire Hidden World’s underground conceals a Spirit Gathering Formation,” explained Huangfu Ruiling. “The majority of Earth’s spiritual energy is concentrated here for the people to cultivate. Therefore, those with cultivation talent in the mortal world are scarce.’
This scarcity was due to their lack of a uniquely favorable environment and the guidance of a deep-rooted heritage.
Ye Lengan refrained from menting on this; she didn’t find it unfair. She wasn’t a deity and wouldn’t pass judgment on these matters. Moreover, fairness was elusive in this world. If one desired it, one had to strive to reach the top of the food chain. Only then would they have the authority to pursue fairness.
While the two conversed, two young men in casual white attire approached.
They seemed intent on asking something. However, upon seeing Huangfu Ruiling, they immediately bowed respectfully and addressed him as “Master
Huangfu.”
Such small figures naturally weren’t qualified to meet the head of the Huangfu family. However, in the Hidden World, everyone knew that the current family head of Huangfu was young, always wearing a mask to conceal his true identity.
Moreover, in the presence of the masked man, they immediately felt a formidable pressure, likely a result of deliberate suppression. Undoubtedly, the masked figure was Master Huangfu.
Surprisingly, they noticed a young woman standing beside Master Huangfu. Although her true face was concealed, her masked appearance suggested a significant connection with the family head. Even though they hadn’t heard about Master Huangfu having a partner, they treated her with utmost respect.
Huangfu Ruiling didn’t respond to the two men but gestured for them to step aside. He then left with Ye Lengan.
The remaining duo didn’t express any dissatisfaction with Huangfu Ruilings demeanor. Instead, they felt that everything unfolded as expected.
Huangfu Ruiling guided Ye Lengan to the Huangfu family residence. On the way, Ye Lengan couldn’t shake the feeling that she had returned to the cultivation world. The Hidden World closely resembled the cultivation world, from the layout of streets to the construction of houses, exuding an antique charm. Unlike the cultivation world, however, most people here dressed in modern clothes.
Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Lengan directly to the main courtyard of the Huangfu family residence. After dismissing all the attendants, he didn’t go to meet the elders but chose to rest in the courtyard with Ye Lengan, enjoying some private time.
Back at the Huangfu family, turmoil ensued after Huangfu Ruilings return. The reason was simple – the family head returned with a girl. Although they couldn’t discern her appearance and cultivation level, the intimacy between her and the family head was palpable. It was inconceivable that the two didn’t share a close relationship.
Regardless of whether the girl would bee the future matriarch of the Huangfu family, it was evident that she held a crucial position in the family head’s heart.
People couldn’t help but speculate about the girl’s identity and what abilities she possessed to capture the family head’s affection.
However, despite their curiosity and the plete lack of knowledge about the background of the girl, everyone in the Huangfu family, including the elders, dared not entertain the thought of separating the family head from this girl.
It was crucial to understand that, unlike other families, the family head held absolute status and power within the Huangfu family. While the elders wield significant influence in their daily affairs, they must unquestionably obey the family head.
In contrast to other families where elders might exert some influence over the family head, such a scenario was absolutely non-existent within the Huangfu family. Perhaps, to be more precise, these dynamics emerged only after the current family head assumed the position.
Moreover, the most paramount aspect was the formidable strength of their family head. It could be said that even if all the members of their entire family were bined, they might still not be a match for the family head.
The family head could depart from the Huangfu family at any time, and it wouldn’t result in any loss or change. However, if the Huangfu family were to lose its current family head, its strength would undoubtedly diminish significantly.
It was precisely because of these reasons that a certain oute had occurred – the family head held an absolute position within the Huangfu family.
Also, due to this reason, even though everyone was curious about Ye Leng’an’s arrival, they didn’t dare to casually inquire about anything.
Soon after Huangfu Ruilings return to the Huangfu family, other families in the Hidden World also received the news. They were well aware that the Huangfu family head wasn’t always present in the family residence, and nobody dared to provoke the Huangfu family even in his absence.
A previous attempt by another family to seize the Huangfu family’s power during the family head’s absence had led to their demise. The Huangfu family head single-handedly confronted them, crippling the cultivation of their family head and several elders. Consequently, that family disappeared from everyone’s sight..
