Chapter 46: The Great Elder (2)
“But I am a little tired. I'll retire to my room then. ” The Great Elder declared with an indifferent look and left without waiting for Ye Ling's response.
Only after the Great Elder left the hall did Ye Ling gradually slacken.
“Tang Tang, now that the Great Elder has returned, you might want to go out less often. Your second uncle will be back from his training in a few days; we will go and accept it then.” Ye Ling had her worries, as her health deteriorated over these years, on top of the training exiled by the Second Elder, the Great Elder was getting stern in his way.
Ye Ling was not a fool, she was now aware of the Grand Elder's ruthless ambition.
But Ye Ling could not compete with him at the moment and could only play by his rules until the Second Elder returned, when they could finally face the Great Elder.
Now, Ye Ling was very concerned about the safety of Ye Qingtang. He was afraid that the Great Elder would lay hands on his daughter who was the heir to the head of the household, and thus give a warning beforehand.
Ye Qingtang sighed to himself as he looked at his worried father.
He was aware that his father's prudence was a consequence of ensuring his safety. Even after the Great Elder subverted all of his authority as head of the household, his father never retaliated, all for the sake of his safety.
Yet….
Little did his father know, he had already come to harm.
In his past life, Ye Qingtang was forced by the Great Elder to remain silent. However, his reason for remaining silent this time was to prevent further suffering for his father.
"Well recorded, father." Ye Qingtang nodded obediently.
Ye Ling then felt relieved.
“Your appearance during today's rites is amazing. As your father, even I'm amazed at how powerful you are. But still, take a break early and get ready in a few days. As soon as your second uncle returns, everything will go well.”
“Yes, dad”
Even though Ye Qingtang approved of Ye Ling's idea, she couldn't relax like she did.
It was because the Great Elder was fully aware of Ye Ling's plan to deal with him upon the return of the Second Elder.
This time, Ye Qingtang would avoid the grand elder's treacherous scheme at all costs.
With that thought, he narrowed his eyes and returned to his room quickly.
The medicine he prepared for Ye Ling was already mixed into his tea every day. The medicine would slowly neutralize the poison in his body. Without Ye Ling herself noticing, her condition had improved greatly over these few days.
But….
He was still far from being able to deal with the Great Elder and needed more preparation….
Ye Xun was in a bad mood ever since he came back from the Duan family.
Previously, he was the one who told Duan Tianrao in secret, about Ye Qingtang's broken spirit root and his appearance that was considered terrible.
But today, Ye Qingtang had placed him in a tight spot. Even without Duan Tianrao voicing his doubts, Ye Xun clearly felt the change in his attitude towards himself.
"Ye Qingtang, why do you always have to get in my way?" Ye Xun took a deep breath silently, as she tried hard to change her mood before stepping into Ye's residence.
Upon his return, he heard the news of the Great Elder's arrival, and his sadness instantly receded.
He had long since joined the ranks of the Great Elders and was clearly well aware of his ambitions. Now with his return, neither Ye Ling nor Ye Qingtang could hope to live in peace!
