Hong Yuan treated Ye Xiner gently, but inwardly, he shook his head. It wasn't that simple. Making it to the top ten had already taken nearly all of his acting prowess. Even in the earlier rounds, people had been testing him!
The darkest hour is just before the dawn. How could it be so simple to enter the top ten and be promoted to the main family for cultivation?
Alas, I am not yet capable of contending with the Martial Saint. And yet, the upper echelons of the Luochen Ye Family can easily summon reinforcements from the main family.
Pushing through with force would certainly be refreshing, but it would bring about too many unforeseen consequences. It's not the best strategy. I'll wait a bit longer.
Hong Yuan sighed softly in his heart.
He continued to amuse Ye Xiner with his words, causing her laughter to echo nonstop through the small courtyard.
「Elsewhere.」
