As he followed the disciples of his family inside, he noticed two individuals approaching.
Though both were masked, it was evident that the man possessed a tall and upright figure, while the woman had bright eyes and a graceful demeanor. Walking together, they formed a perfect match of male talent and female beauty.
For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity with the two individuals ahead. Before he could ponder further, the disciple who escorted him pulled him aside, lowering his head, unwilling to meet the gaze of the approaching pair.
The man and woman, however, paid no attention to them, walking straight past.
Once the two departed, Huangfu Ruixiang immediately turned to the disciple in front of him and asked, “Senior Brother, who were those two just now?”
The family disciple who brought him in had a haughty attitude and remained indifferent when interacting with him. Uncomfortable as he was, he couldn’t say much. After all, even if the disciple was ordinary within the family, he still held a higher status than an outer sect disciple from the mortal world.
But observing the once arrogant disciple now showing great respect to the young couple, it was evident that these two held a significant position within the family.
“What nonsense are you talking about!” The disciple scolded Huangfu Ruixiang in a low voice and explained, “That’s the patriarch of our Huangfu family and his fiancée, Miss Ye. They are not people we can casually discuss.” “The patriarch?” Huangfu Ruixiang widened his eyes in disbelief. “He’s so young.”
Having rarely visited the main family, he never had the chance to meet the family head. In his imagination, the patriarch would be older. He couldn’t believe that the person, not much older than him, was the family head. “Don’t you know our family head?” The disciple frowned. “Our family head is very young. Although he hasn’t been in power for long, our family has become much stronger under his leadership.”
Filled with admiration and pride, the disciple spoke.
Huangfu Ruixiang was silently shocked and chose not to say more, As for the fleeting sense of familiarity, he dismissed it as an illusion. How could he possibly know the family head?
In a unique restaurant in the Hidden World, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan sat facing each other.
They occupied a table by the lobbys edge, having arrived late with no private rooms available. They didn’t mind.
After placing their orders, Ye Lengan looked at Huangfu Ruiling and smiled. “Aren’t you going to say anything?”
“Hmm?” Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows, looking at Ye Lengan with a hint of doubt.
“Huangfu Ruixiang!” Ye Lengan immediately mentioned. “l didn’t expect him to be here in the Hidden World. There’s still some time before the Family Competition, and he’s here quite early!’
“Of course, he has to come early,” Huangfu Ruiling said with a flat tone. “This Family Competition is crucial for his future, In the past, he didn’t even qualify to participate. So, he naturally needs to seize the opportunity this time.”
“Wasn’t it different before?” Ye Lengan was surprised. “I thought registration was open!”
“Of course not.” Huangfu Ruiling chuckled. “If that were the case, who knows how long it would take! Although only major families qualify for the Family Competition, even so, the combined number of participants from these families is unknown. If everyone joined, it might take more than a month! That’s why there are age and cultivation restrictions. It’s all to train the younger disciples, preventing senior disciples from getting involved.”
Ye Lengan understood, nodded, and continued, “After this, do you plan to let Huangfu Ruixiang stay?”
She had heard that Huangfu Ruixiang had some talent, but in the Hidden World, he could only be considered an ordinary existence..
