Full-Level Rich Daughter Makes a Strong Comeback-Chapter 965 - : Spare Her Life

Chapter 965: Spare Her Life

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After settling matters in the mortal world, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an went to the Hidden World.

Unexpectedly, upon their return to the Huangfu family, people from the Zhongyu family visited them. To their surprise, it was none other than Master Zhongyu himself, accompanied by Zhongyu Lingshan.

Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an had just finished grooming when they received news from the Grand Elder.

Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow and glanced at Huangfu Ruiling before speaking with a smile, “I wonder, is Master Zhongyu here to apologize or to demand justice? Their information network is quite impressive!”

Having returned to the Huangfu family not long ago and just finished freshening up, they hadn’t even rested when news of visitors arrived. It was evident that the Zhongyu family had been monitoring their movements closely, allowing them to know of their return so quickly.

Huangfu Ruiling’s expression remained unchanged. “Are you planning to go out? If not, let’s have someone decline them and rest early.”

“I’ll pass.” Ye Leng’an shook her head. “Regardless, he’s the head of a prominent family. We should show him some respect for coming personally.”

Seeing Ye Leng’an’s lack of resistance and their own lack of fatigue, Huangfu Ruiling refrained from comment.

Soon, they arrived at the main hall and found Master Zhongyu and Zhongyu Lingshan waiting. Both wore grim expressions.

Master Zhongyu appeared particularly gloomy, indicating his displeasure. Zhongyu Lingshan’s once youthful appearance had aged significantly, her demeanor now showing signs of weariness.

Ye Leng’an was unsurprised by Zhongyu Lingshan’s condition.

The combination of Five Days of Slumber and one of the ingredients in the Essence Cultivating Pill created a more potent toxin. Though non-lethal, it inflicted excruciating pain nearly constantly, worse than death. Moreover, its most significant characteristic was not inducing immediate despair. After enduring pain, there would be moments of respite, fostering a glimmer of hope.

As it had evolved into a new poison, even the antidote for Five Days of Slumber couldn’t cure it.

“Master Huangfu,” Master Zhongyu greeted upon seeing Huangfu Ruiling enter.

They soon took their seats.

Huangfu Ruiling looked at Master Zhongyu with a cold demeanor. “Master Zhongyu, what brings you here personally?”

After Master Zhongyu clasped his fists toward Huangfu Ruiling, he slowly spoke, “Master Huangfu, I came here today to apologize. When in the mortal world, my daughter Lingshan inadvertently offended Miss Ye. Today, I personally brought her here to apologize to Miss Ye.”

In the Hidden World, strength was paramount. Although Huangfu Ruiling was young, he was now the head of the Huangfu family, putting him on equal footing with Master Zhongyu. Moreover, it was indeed their Zhongyu family at fault in this matter.

So, even though Master Zhongyu had to humble himself, he didn’t feel too aggrieved. However, when he looked at Zhongyu Lingshan, his gaze couldn’t help but carry a hint of gloom.

He never expected that his daughter, who had always been a source of relief, would cause such a huge disaster in the end. It seemed that he had been too indulgent towards her in ordinary times.

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t say anything, just looked at Ye Leng’an. “An’an, what do you think?”

Clearly, he intended to leave this matter to Ye Leng’an to handle. This was reasonable. After all, it was Ye Leng’an whom Zhongyu Lingshan had plotted against, so it was only fair to let Ye Leng’an deal with it.

However, after hearing this, Master Zhongyu’s expression immediately soured.

Although Ye Leng’an was the fiancée of Huangfu Ruiling, and Huangfu Ruiling was backing her up, in reality, the heads of various major families didn’t think highly of Ye Leng’an.

Firstly, the two were only engaged, not married. Although they had sworn vows during the ceremony, no one could predict the future. Secondly, and most importantly, no one knew Ye Leng’an’s strength.

In the Hidden World, strength was paramount, and until they understood Ye Leng’an’s strength, they wouldn’t have much respect for her.

However, one had to change due to the change of circumstances, so Master Zhongyu had no choice but to swallow his pride.

Moreover, although he was angry at Zhongyu Lingshan, she was still his daughter after all. Now that she had been poisoned like this, all the physicians in the family had seen her, and they had even sought help from the Ye family. However, there was still no solution. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

So, the most important reason for their visit today, apart from a nominal apology, was Zhongyu Lingshan’s situation.

During this period, Zhongyu Lingshan had been tortured to the point of mental exhaustion. If this continued, she probably wouldn’t last much longer.

Ye Leng’an, seemingly indifferent to Master Zhongyu’s inner turmoil, stated, “I have no intention of pursuing this matter further. There’s no need for such formality, Master Zhongyu.”

It was as if she completely failed to understand Master Zhongyu’s intentions today. Her words sounded merely formal and even failed to mention Zhongyu Lingshan at all.

Master Zhongyu’s expression soured slightly, but he maintained his composure. “Miss Ye, your magnanimity is admirable. However, I came here today for another matter, hoping for the assistance of Master Huangfu and Miss Ye. ”

With Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an remaining silent, he had to continue on his own.

“Master Huangfu, Miss Ye, although it is indeed Lingshan’s fault in this matter, she has already been punished. During this period, she has been tortured a lot. Therefore, I hope that both of you can be merciful and spare her life.”

Ye Leng’an responded with a faint smile. “Master Zhongyu, we never intended to take her life.”
