Now that she had returned, those who had once harmed her should be mentally preparing themselves for her retaliation.
“What is the cultivation world like?” Huangfu Ruiling inquired, “Are there many people who can achieve ascension there?”
“I’m not entirely sure.” Ye Lengan shook her head. “During my time there, I devoted nearly all my time to cultivation, and I paid little attention to external matters.”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have become a formidable practitioner at the Ascension Stage at such a young age. Regrettably, she was only one step away from ascending to become an immortal.
Nonetheless, she didn’t harbor any unhappiness over this matter. Being able to return and unravel past grievances was a positive development. Most importantly, her return to this world unexpectedly brought her a love she had never anticipated.
Looking at Huangfu Ruiling by her side, Ye Leng’an’s lips curved into a slightly sweet smile. She then continued with a grin, “But now, I feel that not succeeding in my ascension was actually a blessing in disguise, returning to this world. Otherwise, how could I have met you?”
This, in its own way, could be considered fate smiling upon her!
“You’re undoubtedly the best gift given to me by fate.” Huangfu Ruiling gazed at Ye Lengan with affection in his eyes. “Though I wish you never experience any pain, I’m grateful that you came into my life.”
“How is the Hidden World faring now?” Ye Lengan, as if something had just occurred to her, suddenly asked, “You inquired about ascension earlier, and I wanted to ask as well. Can people in the Hidden World achieve ascension?”
She maintained her strong interest in the Hidden World, eager to comprehend the distinctions between it and the cultivation world.
“In the Hidden World, no one has reached the level of ascension,” Huangfu Ruiling explained. “Although I’m unsure about the nature of the cultivation
world you were in, it’s undoubtedly distinct from the Hidden World.
Present-day Earth has an inadequate amount of spiritual energy. While the
Hidden World boasts a more abundant reservoir of spiritual energy compared to the mortal world, it’s still insufficient.’
“l see. That explains why someone like Zhongyu Zhenhua, who had only reached the Golden Core stage, could become the head of the Zhongyu family!” Ye Lengan nodded, enlightened. “However, even so, the residents of the Hidden World undoubtedly have much longer lifespans than those in the mortal world.’
“Not only that, but their strength is significantly greater, and those with advanced levels of cultivation are not daunted by the firearms of the mortal world,” Huangfu Ruiling continued. “If the people of the Hidden World sought to rule the mortal world, it would undoubtedly disrupt the balance. Hence, there is an unspoken understanding between the mortal world and the Hidden World, signifying that they should remain unrelated to one another.”
“Indeed, it seems the right approach.” Ye Lengan nodded in agreement. “The Hidden World is inhabited by cultivators who can silently take a life with a flick of their finger. If they harbored intentions of invading, it would be a cataclysmic disaster for the mortal world.”
“That’s why the Hidden World has an enforcement unit for this purpose,” Huangfu Ruiling elaborated. “People from the Hidden World are not free to venture into the mortal world. Furthermore, even after arriving, they are strictly prohibited from harming ordinary people. Violation of these rules incurs severe penalties.”
“What kind of…” Ye Leng’an’s words were interrupted by a knock on the door.
While Huangfu Ruiling was somewhat annoyed by the interruption, he didn’t cast blame. He knew that Li San was outside and had observed Ye Lengan entering. Li San wouldn’t permit any disruptions unless it was absolutely necessary.
Huangfu Ruiling settled into the wheelchair behind the desk and Ye Lengan took a seat opposite him.
Only after a response was acknowledged did the person who had knocked on the door enter.
It was one of the secretaries, who entered with trepidation and reported, “Mr.
President, Mrs. Huangfu is outside. She wishes to see you.”
To be honest, she had no desire to enter at all. If she hadn’t drawn the short straw, she certainly wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.
Though Mrs. Huangfu was the CEOs mother, it was evident that their mother-son relationship was strained. Nonetheless, Mrs. Huangfu’s attitude was uncompromising, and she nearly barged in. While Li San tried to stop her, he remained silent..
