Rebirth of the Peak Young Master-Chapter 348: About to Shine

Sure, here is the translation of the provided Chinese text:

His face twitched slightly. He had never realized that Yang Tian was now a Navy General.

It must be noted that his father, Ji General, when he was still alive, held only an ordinary rank, and after so many years in the military, he was still far from reaching the rank of General.

But this young man, who was only eighteen years old, had already matched his father’s rank.

Impossible!

This isn’t just a comparison; after all, his father completely surpassed the Dragon General status, which was above ordinary ranks, towering far higher!

Thus, the old man with the small beard was trembling continuously, as if on the verge of exploding.

However, at this moment, Wu Hao took a deep breath and stepped forward: "Mr. Yang, actually, I’ve been waiting for you all along. Long before I met Yanran, I knew she truly loved you, Mr. Yang. So, I was never entirely supportive of the marriage. With you here, I can rest assured. Please, take care of Yanran. Please... take good care of her!"

As he spoke, Wu Hao exhaled again, seemingly suppressing his reluctant heart.

Seeing this, the guests sitting around sighed.

Haowu’s reluctance was not hidden at all. How could they not sense it?

But the situation was beyond anyone’s control; Yang Tian’s position was so high that no one dared to confront him directly. As for Haowu himself, he was no match for Yang Tian, who could knock him away with a single slap—no one even knew where he would land.

Some even thought that if such a situation were to arise in their own family, how would they handle it?

For a moment, everyone felt sympathy for Wu Hao and a hint of dissatisfaction toward Yang Tian.

However, seeing Wu Hao bow his head slightly, revealing a cold smirk, they were taken aback.

"What are you laughing at?"

A booming voice suddenly broke out, startling Haowu, who abruptly raised his head, only to find Yang Tian smirking mockingly at him. The sight made Haowu’s heart tremble.

"N-nothing! I’m just happy for Mr. Yang and his sweetness."

With that, Haowu hurriedly pushed a woman with a flushed face toward Yang Tian, his expression filled with eagerness for Yang to take her away.

Yang Tian saw this, suddenly smiled, and extended his hand to help the woman.

Seeing Yang Tian do this, Haowu’s eyes lit up with excitement.

However, just as Yang Tian’s hand was about to touch the woman, he suddenly laughed again and said, "It seems like you’re really eager for me to take her away?"

"I... "

Haowu’s tongue twisted at this moment.

Hearing Yang Tian’s faint, cold laugh, he added, "Thinking about using poison against me, I wonder if this was your idea, or someone helped you come up with it?"

With that, Yang Tian struck out with one palm, causing the woman to scream as she fell to the ground, her headpiece being knocked off.

But when they saw the woman’s face, everyone gasped.

Because she wasn’t Ji Yanran but a woman with red and white spots all over her face.

Who was this woman?

All the guests stared at the terrified woman in shock.

Although Ji Yanran had never spent a single day in the Ji Family, so no one had recognized her, the Ji Family’s other women had been seen by these guests before.

Among them, Lady Jijada wasn’t just beautiful and bright but carried herself with grace and elegance.

But this woman was hideous beyond belief.

The contrast was simply too stark.

At this moment, a haggard-looking man sitting at the far end of the table suddenly stood up and exclaimed excitedly: "The fragrance... It’s you... You’re fragrant!"

The man hurriedly stepped forward but stopped abruptly as he reached her.

Of course, everyone knew this man. He was Lin Shanxiao, the head of the Lin Family from Yunzhou, a self-made figure in a quasi-first-class family.

Lin Shanxiao was also a legend in Yunzhou.

Starting from nothing, he built a massive family enterprise and had the status to enter the Royal Dragon House and participate in the Ji Family’s wedding banquet.

Something many other families couldn’t achieve.

After all, most families only qualified to enter Emperor Dragon Mountain Villa.

Thus, Lin Shanxiao held high prestige among his peers.

At the same time, everyone also knew that Lin Shanxiao had no sons, only a precious daughter named Lin Wenxiang. However, some time ago, she had clashed with Lin Shanxiao and left home.

For this, Lin Shanxiao had sought help from many of them to locate her.

But now, standing before him was a woman whose face was horrifying—it was his daughter Lin Wenxiang?

Why was she here? Why had she replaced Ji Yanran to marry Wu Hao?

As all of this simmered in everyone’s minds, Lin Shanxiao suddenly broke away from those holding him back and rushed to Lin Wenxiang, his eyes brimming with tears as he shouted: "Xiangxiang, it’s me, your father! Are you okay? Fragrant... Fragrance!"

But Lin Wenxiang’s gaze was vacant, utterly unresponsive.

Seeing his daughter in such a state, Lin Shanxiao’s heart clenched painfully. Turning to Wu Hao, he shouted, "It’s you! It’s got to be you! You gained a foothold in the Ji Clan and became a trusted confidant, spreading fragrant poison ever since you entered the clan. But after you entered, the fragrance grew stronger."

"I told Xiangxiang you were a feral wolf, that she should leave you, but... but she didn’t listen to me. Then some time ago, she even said you were attending the wedding, left home, and... You and..."

At this point, Lin Shanxiao choked up, unable to speak further.

But Wu Hao smirked scornfully, sneering at him: "Since it’s all ruined now, let me just say it outright. Yes, she is indeed your daughter, Lin Wenxiang!"

Lin Shanxiao was dumbfounded by this revelation. Everyone around him stared at Wu Hao’s face, which bore an entirely different expression.

Lin Shanxiao’s jaw tightened as he growled, "What... what did you do to this beast?"

"Corrupted her? No, I didn’t corrupt her!"

Wu Hao laughed coldly: "I simply said I wanted to marry her. And here we are, holding the wedding. The only difference is, before the wedding, I made her into a poisoned person."

"Poisoned... Poisoned?! You... What do you mean by that?" Lin Shanxiao roared, his voice trembling as he shouted.

"Exactly what it sounds like."

Wu Hao sneered coldly and said, "Right now, Lin Wenxiang’s body is riddled with countless poisons. I suggest you don’t touch your precious daughter; otherwise, you might meet the same fate as her. Hahaha!"

What in the world was going on?

Could this be the same fragrance Lin Lin had heard about?

Hearing this, everyone instinctively recoiled in terror, fearing contamination.

As for Lin Shanxiao, he was utterly stunned. Then, he erupted in fury, roaring: "I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you and your whole family!"

"Kill me?"

Haowu sneered coldly, kicking Lin Shanxiao to the ground with a hard strike. His laughter was laced with frost as he added, "Lin Shanxiao, don’t overestimate yourself. Have you forgotten that I am a disciple of the Xuantian Sect? Your daughter might be reborn, but you won’t find another precious old mother in your family. Do you dare?"

"I... "

Lin Shanxiao had initially wanted to risk his life against Wu Hao, but these words left him frozen in place.

Earlier, Deng Bingqiu had proved to be no ordinary figure, but evidently, he wasn’t even the pinnacle.

In fact, Deng Bingqiu’s warriors had described him as a Divine-level Expert.

And Deng Bingqiu was merely an elder of Heavenly Heaven. If even an elder was this formidable, what could one say about the Clan Leader?

Could the entire Lin Family muster enough power to challenge such immense might?

Yet without retaliation, was he supposed to just let this pass?

That was his most dearly cherished daughter!

All the officials seated at the banquet reportedly heard Wu Hao’s words, anger brimming in their hearts, though none dared to step forward.

Divine-level!

That was well beyond their reach.

Even so, when dealing with such divine power, one had to deliberate multiple times before acting.

Thus, among the officials, one could only turn, seeking someone higher up the chain of command, loudly addressing Ji Lao, "You Ji Family members, as guardians of the clan, would you allow your child to commit such atrocities?"

"Atrocities? What atrocities?"

The elder seated at the head of the table chuckled softly and replied, "Of course not."
