Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 408: Lin Yue’s second disciple, granddaughter of the Huo Family

Chapter 408: 408: Lin Yue’s second disciple, granddaughter of the Huo Family

"Master, are we participating in the Arena competition this time?"

Shencheng City, the Gu Residence.

The eldest disciple, Eileen, passed a cup of tea to her Master Lin Yue while curiously inquiring.

It was evident that she too was itching to try.

Because this was a globally unprecedented competition that had captured everyone’s attention.

It could be said to involve the most exaggerated scale of investment ever.

Participants from various factions even included heirs supported by two great Nascent Soul overlords from beyond the stars.

Because it appears those two Nascent Soul Families don’t have secret techniques to pass down, and although this "Profound Level" secret technique may be useless to them at the Nascent Soul stage, for the earthly clans’ heirs, it’s a treasure beyond compare. Hence, they will also send representatives from their families to the competition.

This means the event would feature a clash of titans at the peak of Qi Refining.

All the forces were busy finding out about each other’s preparations.

"No need," Lin Yue shook her head. "This is something arranged by your Martial Uncle. Without his permission, do not cause any disturbances."

Eileen obediently bowed slightly, "Yes!"

In reality, the Profound Level secret technique, the artifact refining materials, and the Core Formation materials held little attraction for her.

After all, she was cultivating a "Supreme Level" secret technique under her master’s guidance.

As for other resources, with her master present, she would want for nothing.

"Sister, wouldn’t you be bullying others if you joined?"

A girl of a similar age to Eileen, who was practicing her horse stance, interjected.

She was a few years younger than Eileen, just turned 6, and was Lin Yue’s second disciple, named Huo Yi.

Her innate talent was similar to Eileen’s, both possessing a Top-Grade Spiritual Root.

Born into the Huo Family of the Hong Kong Circle.

Yes, that’s right, the youngest granddaughter of the Huo Family.

Once she turned 6 and tested for her Spirit Root, the testing facility immediately informed Lin Yue.

After observing the girl for some time and feeling that she was well-mannered and from a reputable family, Lin Yue accepted her as a disciple.

However, Huo Yi was still a 6-year-old girl and inevitably a bit mischievous.

Hence, she was being punished by Lin Yue by being made to stand.

"Who allowed you to speak?" Lin Yue, seeing her interruption, gently swatted her backside with a stick.

Huo Yi immediately shut her mouth, but still muttered, "It’s true, after all. Sister is already ranked first every day, it’s just that it’s anonymous and others don’t know."

Eileen couldn’t help showing a slight hint of pride on her face after such praise from her junior sister.

After all, she was just a girl approaching 9.

But what Huo Yi said was not wrong.

Eileen was at the Mid Qi-Refining Stage, thanks to her own Spirit Root and the massive support from the Spirit Stones provided by Lin Yue.

Lin Yue didn’t give her any Foundation Establishment Pills because Eileen didn’t need those.

After Foundation Establishment, merely stabilizing your stage requires time, and the realm achieved through elixirs is far less robust than one attained through one’s own understanding and effort.

So Lin Yue didn’t rely on Elixirs for Eileen.

And Eileen, although only at the Mid Qi-Refining Stage with the augmentation of Secret Techniques, was an invincible presence among her peers in the Arena.

Actually, one could remain anonymous on the rankings.

Ever since she advanced in Qi Refinement, Eileen had been at the top for a long time, and the major powers around the world would never have guessed that this top person was Lin Yue’s senior apprentice.

Eileen could now sustain herself with the 10 Spirit Stones awarded daily by the Arena, receiving Mid-grade Spirit Stones from Lin Yue’s side only occasionally.

As for Huo Yi next to her, well, this young girl was making steady progress in the Martial Artist Stage.

She’s now a Martial Artist Ninth-grade, and soon she’ll break through to Grandmaster, setting a record for the youngest ever to do so.

Having such a brilliant granddaughter made the entire Huo Family very excited.

And the fact that Huo Yi was favored by Madame Lin Yue was even more inspiring for both the Huo Family and the powers within the Hong Kong Circle.

This was because, during this period, the influence of the Hong Kong Circle had been somewhat declining in this race.

They had not received a slice of the cake from the New City projects, nor had they a channel to compete for the Elixirs that were occasionally revealed by the Pill Association.

They had intended to have the next generation join the Supercar Club in Shencheng City, but found the age link between the second and third generations extremely awkward.

Whether it was the Huo Family or the Li family, their second-generation members were all over fifty years old, and the third generation was either too young.

Either under 10 years old or just over a decade old, making it impossible for them to form a circle with the people of the Supercar Club.

This meant that the old generation still had to support the high circles of the Hong Kong Circle.

While they were anxious and helpless, the news that Huo Yi, the youngest granddaughter of the Huo Family, had a Top-Grade Spiritual Root at the age of 6 during her check at the monitoring station lifted the spirits of the Hong Kong Circle tremendously.

Later on, the news that Huo Yi would become Lin Yue’s second disciple brought joy throughout Hong Kong, and people paid close attention to Huo Yi’s cultivation progress.

When it was discovered that her extraordinary talent and Spiritual Root had propelled her to Martial Artist Ninth-grade in just one month, it made the Huo Family extremely proud.

Huo Yi had undoubtedly become the spokesperson for the Hong Kong Circle’s influence.

After putting down her teacup, Lin Yue stood up and left Eileen with a command, "Keep an eye on your junior sister. If you dare to let her sneak out to play again, you’ll be punished along with her."

Eileen accepted the order, "Yes, Master."

After Lin Yue gracefully departed, Eileen asked her junior sister Huo Yi in surprise, "What did you do to make Master angry again?"

Huo Yi blushed bashfully, "I saw Senior Brother riding Master’s Spiritual Pet mount, so I rode it too, but who knew it would be so stubborn? It tried to throw me off, and I couldn’t control it. It ended up charging out of the residence and flipped over, crushing the cars parked on the road."

Eileen rolled her eyes, "Senior Brother is Master’s kin; of course, the Spiritual Pets feel close to him. How can you, a newbie, compare?"

Huo Yi replied, "Next time, I’ll ask Senior Brother to take me."

"You should stay away from those cars outside," Eileen scoffed. "Everyone who lives in Shencheng City is either rich or noble; the cars parked on the roadside are all worth millions. Be careful or you’ll end up owing a fortune."

Huo Yi said, "I didn’t ask Master to pay for me, did I? I immediately used the Spirit Stones you gave me to compensate them."

Eileen’s eyes widened abruptly, and she turned her head sharply, "You used Spirit Stones to compensate them?"

"Yes," Huo Yi nodded confidently, adding, "Those car owners couldn’t have been happier; they even told me to smash more if I felt like it."

After that, Eileen picked up a stick from the ground, "I was wondering why Master, who usually has such a gentle temperament, would punish you. You wasteful girl, the Spirit Stones I work so hard to earn as rewards every day are for your improvement, and you actually used them to pay others?"

Eileen was infuriated, "Do you know how much a Spirit Stone costs now? Over thirty million each, and you just handed them out for those few million worth of sports cars?"

Huo Yi’s eyes widened, a bit cowed.

Because Master rarely punished her, but her Senior Sister was truly ready to hit her, "Senior Sister, listen to my explanation..."

The next second, wails of Huo Yi could be heard from the Gu Residence.
