Just as the man in white was about to search the room again, two maids appeared within his spiritual sense range.

He initially didn't want to pay attention, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that they seemed to be discussing a topic that interested him. He then transformed into an invisible shadow and approached the two maids.

"If only I could be chosen by the head of the family to be Miss Wuxie and Young Master Tianci's maid!" A pretty maid said with envy.

"I heard that the maids sent to Yunrou Manor not only receive three times more cultivation pills than us, but if they reach the Celestial Immortal level, they'll also receive rewards, probably including a mid-grade immortal artifact!" The plump maid's eyes gleamed with envy as she said, "Moxiang, who entered the Han family with me, is so lucky! She was actually chosen by the family head!"

"You mean Sister Moxiang?" the pretty maid asked with delight. "She's such a kind person! It's truly a blessing from heaven that she's encountered such good fortune! It was only right that it happened to her. Sister Moxiang is humble, gentle, and generous, and she's also very well-read. Her cultivation speed is much faster than ours!"

The plump maidservant snorted displeasedly, her voice laced with resentment: "Hmph! In the end, they're just going to serve two good-for-nothings. Right now, these two children are young, and the master likes children, finding them cute, that's why he's nice to them! When they grow up, if they're still not up to par, the master will definitely hate them, and the maidservants sent there will suffer along with them! That Moxiang will definitely have a hard time too!"

Hearing the other person's jealous and curse-filled words, the pretty maid was annoyed and retorted angrily, "Who said that! I remember the gatekeeper saying that last time the Third Miss returned with her child, the Master, the Eldest Young Master, the Second Young Master, and Elder Wan all went to greet them personally! At the time, the gatekeeper couldn't get close and could only watch from a distance. Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, he personally saw the Master take a treasure that looked like a teardrop from his body and give it to Young Master Tianci. Although we servants are ignorant and don't know what it is, the fact that the Master took it out of his body clearly means it had been hidden there for a long time, so it must be an extraordinary treasure! The Master giving this treasure to Young Master Tianci shows how much he likes him. Even if Young Master Tianci grows up and isn't as cute as he is now, he will still be the Master's grandson, and the Master will definitely love him!"

After overhearing the conversation between the two maids, a transparent shadowy figure darted swiftly towards Yunrou Manor from the shadows...

The man in white did not enter Yunrou Manor directly. He touched his face, and a green light emanated from it. He changed his clothes and instantly transformed into the appearance of an old man.

The man, who had transformed into the appearance of an old man, coldly stared in the direction of Yunrou Manor with his sinister eyes...

Despite meticulous planning and a clever diversionary tactic, they ultimately overlooked one crucial detail!

So he gave Hongbao to that child! He actually gave Hongbao to a good-for-nothing, but not to me!

You old hag, Han Mengxiao! My father died in your place, and you still keep it all to yourself!

Is my father's life less valuable than yours? Why should I risk my life to save a heartless bastard like you!

My father gave his life for another, and yet you treat me so cruelly! You gave me the Jade Gale Blade, the Cold Stone Life-Saving Talisman, and what you gave Han Yun—I don't know, but considering how lazy he is, his cultivation must have been incredibly fast—it must have been a priceless treasure! Now you've given it all back to your grandson Hongbao, and what about me? I've received nothing!

I am merely your adopted son, a child you adopted because my father died in your place and you couldn't bear the pangs of conscience! In your heart, I am an outsider, and you will never give me the position of head of the family! Since your life was bought with my father's life, everything that is yours should rightfully be mine. If you won't give it to me, I will take it myself!

Since you think so highly of that child, I'll make you regret it! I'll make you regret giving Hongbao to a good-for-nothing. I'll kill him and let you know that you killed him. If you hadn't given something unsuitable to someone who didn't deserve it, how could he have died?

I'll make you wish you were dead, let you taste the pain of losing your grandson and your son! Just like when I lost my only family member, I was in unbearable agony!

……

The night was very quiet, so quiet that it sent a chill down one's spine. Han Wuxie gazed at the bright moon outside the window, and for some reason, she had a bad feeling in her heart. The chill made her very uncomfortable.

"Miss Wuxie, aren't you going to sleep yet?" The Right Elder sat at the table, showing no intention of leaving, clearly intending to spend the night there.

Elder Zuo lay sprawled on the table, looking rather lazy, clearly intending to stay there.

Wu Xie walked to the cradle by the bed, looking at her sleeping younger brother with a warm gaze.

The cradle for his younger brother was brought to his room by the Right Elder. Only by his side could his brother sleep so peacefully. He was still young and didn't know that his mother had gone to a dangerous place. But when his mother wasn't there, he kept crying until he was by his side. He was clearly worried about his mother.

"Right Elder, how far is the Boundless Sea from here?" Wu Xie looked out the window, his eyes filled with deep worry.

"At the speed of the patriarch and the others, they should be able to reach the Boundless Sea in about seven hours," the Right Elder replied truthfully.

"Seven hours." Wu Xie counted on his fingers and said softly, "They shouldn't have reached the Boundless Sea yet, but they'll be there soon. It's already dark. For the Demon Realm, darkness is a good time for battle, but for them..."

Wu Xie didn't continue, but everyone present understood what she meant. Silence fell; no one spoke again, and no one urged the thoughtful child to sleep, because they knew that the child probably couldn't fall asleep.

"Hehehe..." A cold laugh came from the doorway.

The right elder and the left elder trembled. Normally, if someone were to approach, they would notice immediately. But now that the person was already at the door, they might not have noticed at all if the other party hadn't sneered!

Who exactly is this person? What is their cultivation level?

The Right Elder frowned deeply. What he and his Left Brother couldn't detect was probably a mid-level Great Luo Golden Immortal's ability!

The Right Elder and Left Elder leaped up like lightning, blocking Wu Xie and Tian Ci's path, and simultaneously demanded, "Who goes there?"

"Heh heh, you two clowns, if you hand these two children over to me, I might spare you!" As the words fell, the wooden door seemed to come alive, with countless vines growing from its roots. The vines emitted a faint glow and carried a strange fragrance. The thick vines slammed into the door panel like heavy hammers, instantly smashing the door into pieces.

Countless mysterious golden light patterns flew from the Right Elder's palm, condensing into a massive light sword. The light sword transformed into a bolt of lightning and swiftly pierced towards the old man in front of the door. After unleashing this attack using his immortal energy, he felt a sudden emptiness drain from his body, slumped into his chair, and weakly exclaimed, "Not good! Brother Zuo, this fragrance is Soft Immortal Powder!"

"You're courting death!" With that mocking remark, the enormous light sword, formed from countless mysterious light patterns, was shattered by a vine's pull, scattering into countless pieces.
