Ye Ao watched as Kong Yulan carried Feng Yudie into the inner room and then glanced at the magical tools and identity cards that Ye Anping had brought out. He seemed a bit distressed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Afterward, he turned his gaze to Pei Lengxue.

"Pei girl, you should go over and help take care of that girl."

"Ah, sure."

Pei Lengxue nodded in a daze, her heart pounding, and cast a furtive glance at her Senior Brother before giving a respectful salute and following Kong Yulan into the inner room.

Once she left, Ye Ao pulled Ye Anping over to a tea seat beside the tower and poured a cup of tea for him.

Ye Ao felt a bit disoriented at the moment. Leaving aside why the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect would come to the region under the Righteous Sect control, he couldn't wrap his head around how Ye Anping and Pei Lengxue, two Qi Refining stage cultivators, could have managed to wound a Pseudo-early stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivator, let alone killed him.

"Anping, tell me the truth. Are you and Pei girl really the one who killed this demonic cultivator? Did no one else help you?"

"Father—"

Ye Ao raised his hand to interrupt, "Anping, I know how much you can handle. Boasting might make your mother happy, but not me. Tell me the truth, what really happened?"

"To be honest, we just took advantage of an opportunity."

"In other words, that person only died at your hands after being injured from a prior battle?"

"Yes, in Martial Creek Town, a golden dragon suddenly appeared. It seemed to have fought with that demonic cultivator, and then we encountered him. By that time, he had already lost half his life in the battle with the dragon. He wanted to use our true essence to heal himself, but Pei Lengxue and I killed him instead."

Ye Ao narrowed his eyes, "A golden dragon?"

"Yes, a golden dragon," Ye Anping shrugged and nodded, "Father, if you don't believe me, you can ask around in Martial Creek Town. Many people should have seen that golden dragon."

"What about the girl you brought back?"

"After the golden dragon disappeared, Pei Lengxue and I went to the spot directly below where it had been. That's where we found her."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ao's eyes widened slightly. He turned to glance at the inner room as if he had heard something incredible. As an old cultivator, he was well aware of the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor's bloodline.

And now, the girl with the Immortal Emperor's bloodline had been saved by his own son and brought back home.

Ye Ao had never expected much from his son's accomplishments in life. After all, he only possessed dual spiritual roots. While he might go farther on the path of cultivation than himself, he wouldn't achieve anything extraordinary.

However, now he saw an opportunity that could bring glory to Hundred Lotus Sect and the Ye family.

The student or descendant of the Immortal Emperor, unless something unexpected happened, was destined to become the next Immortal Emperor.

If Ye Anping could join forces with that girl, it would be a great thing for Hundred Lotus Sect, the Ye family, and even for Ye Anping himself.

When Ye Anping introduced the girl to him earlier, he provided such detailed information. This likely meant that the girl had told Ye Anping herself.

And since she was willing to share her master's story with Ye Anping, it probably indicated that she had developed some goodwill toward him.

"Anping, what's the girl's name again?"
