Xiao Zhan glanced at Ye Youlong.
He knew that his Talent Skill was too overpowered; "The innocent would be guilty by possessing a treasure." Although an SSS Talent Level was rare, over the years, it had accumulated quite a number of people.
Once his talent became known to others, it would definitely attract endless assassins and enemies.
Humanity as a whole was united in fighting against Demon Beasts.
But where there are people, there are interests and intrigues.
If this delicate balance were to be disrupted, then those engaged in intrigue would unite once again.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan needed to protect himself.
Of course, if he simply denied possessing any Bloodline Talent Skills, Ye Wudi would certainly not believe him.
There hadn't been a single SSS Talent Spirit Master without Bloodline Talent Skills; usually, such cases were exclusive to those with F-tier talents.
Fabricating a lie was also not realistic.
So, he simply pushed the question to Ye Youlong, who, given her personality, could easily handle Ye Wudi.
Ye Youlong was a smart woman and would not foolishly reveal it.
Hearing this, Ye Wudi looked towards Ye Youlong.
"I can't know?"
"No."
"Is it very special?"
"Yes."
Those two indifferent words represented Ye Youlong's stance.
Ye Wudi asked no further.
He knew her character well—if she said she wouldn't tell, she absolutely wouldn't, no matter how much he asked.
But how special could it be?
Being one of the closest people to her, why can't I know?
He glanced at Xiao Zhan and noticed the young man had an air of smugness; it seemed he had found a way to handle himself.
"Pfft, nosy," suddenly Ye Wudi remarked.
A seemingly random statement.
The voice was very low, but Xiao Zhan heard it just right.
He was taken aback for a moment, nosy?
He was just trying not to expose himself, how did it turn into being nosy?
Somewhat speechless.
However, he also keenly sensed that this was Ye Wudi attempting to make conversation and trying to assert his authority over him.
A clichéd method.
Xiao Zhan seriously wondered if he was the actual nosy one because only a nosy person would look down on another being nosy.
Speaking of which, although he was from Sichuan in his previous life, Xiao Zhan could clearly say that he really wasn't nosy!
"What's your name?"
Asking for his name meant that Ye Wudi had started to acknowledge Xiao Zhan.
And, this acknowledgment was intentionally displayed for Xiao Zhan to see.
Xiao Zhan's records were very clear to him, how could he not know his name?
"Xiao Zhan."
Xiao Zhan responded, aware that Ye Wudi's attitude towards him had changed.
Ye Wudi nodded and continued his acknowledgment.
But he quickly shifted the tone, asserting his authority again, "Still, don't think just because you have a Contract with Youlong that you can enter the Ye Family's gate! Talent is the foundation, effort is the ladder, if you don't fit in as a member of the Ye Family, you'll never earn our recognition!"
"Yes, I understand," Xiao Zhan said.
"Alright, you may leave. I will handle your enrollment documents, and you can head to the academy in a few days!"
"Yes."
Xiao Zhan responded, then left the hall together with Ye Youlong.
After leaving.
Ye Wudi couldn't help but mutter, "Is this young man's Talent Bloodline Skill very special, that even we can't know about it?"
Zhang Runya stepped forward, "Young people should have their secrets, why do you care so much, isn't it enough to know that Xiao Zhan's Talent Level is SSS?"
Ye Wudi nodded, indeed that was the case.
Zhang Runya then asked, "Should we ask the Federation Government to come over and re-evaluate Xiao Zhan's Talent Level? After all, the gap between F level and SSS level treatment is very big."
Ye Wudi thought for a moment.
"Let's forget about it, re-evaluating the Talent Level means testing Xiao Zhan's Bloodline Talent Skills. If they don't even want to tell us, it means Xiao Zhan's Bloodline Talent Skill is really special!"
"It might even have a big impact, if we bring in people from the Federation Government, it might actually harm them."
"Besides, the treatment that the Federation Government offers, my Ye Family can afford it easily. As long as Xiao Zhan is capable, even if we give him all of the Ye Family's talents, what of it?"
Zhang Runya also nodded.
Talent Bloodline Skills are numerous and complex, many of which must remain unseen.
If others knew, it would bring about a calamity of murder.
Not updating Xiao Zhan's information is also a kind of protection.
...
Meanwhile.
Outside the General Mansion.
Huang Yuan and Huang Fei's faces were filled with gloom, Huang Fei looking particularly fierce, resembling a murderous ruffian, far from the man crazily in love just moments before.
"Go investigate this Xiao Zhan's information, where did this wild boy come from, he actually disrupted our plans!"
Huang Yuan gritted his teeth as he spoke.
He had originally devised a perfect plan, but the arrival of Xiao Zhan, this boy, shattered this plan instantly!
Utterly useless!
Huang Fei said, "Father, they have already signed a Life and Death Contract, our plan is essentially void, we can only execute another plan."
"Don't worry, I've been executing another plan simultaneously, to achieve victory without bloodshed is best, but if I must wield the butcher's knife, that's not impossible!"
"Then what about this Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong? Should we find an opportunity to kill them?" Huang Fei's eyes revealed a hint of fierceness.
Signing Ye Youlong was part of the plan, but he was also truly fond of Ye Youlong.
Being intercepted by Xiao Zhan, this affair that couldn't exactly be called cuckoldry, made him very uncomfortable!
Huang Yuan looked at him, saw the uncontrollable anger between his brows, and sternly said, "I've told you many times before, you need to change this fiery temperament! A man who achieves great things must endure what others cannot! If you don't control your temper, sooner or later you'll suffer losses!"
"Yes, I understand, Father."
Huang Fei lowered his head.
But he looked completely unrepentant.
Huang Yuan knew it was useless to say more, preaching a hundred times won't work, but experience teaches instantly!
A broken bone provides the best lesson.
Once he suffers a loss, he will understand.
"No hurry for now, killing them now will only bring unnecessary trouble. Besides, I have already thought of a brilliant plan that can make use of Xiao Zhan!" Huang Yuan said.
The sinister look on his face, compared to Huang Fei's fierceness, was not even on the same level.
"Father, what is this brilliant plan?"
"Hmph, when you change your temperament one day, I'll feel at ease telling you," Huang Yuan expressed his frustration.
Huang Fei felt uneasy.
Just as he was about to continue questioning, their helicopter arrived.
The matter was temporarily put aside.
General Mansion.
Ye Youlong's boudoir.
Xiao Zhan emerged from the bath.
Ye Youlong was half leaning against the headboard, holding a book, her head slightly bowed, and her slender fingers delicate as scallions.
Dressed in a black lace nightgown, her long, smooth legs were pure, devoid of any impurities. Her delicate, pristine feet and the round, enticing toes were pale yet tinted with a soft pink.
Her hair cascaded down like a waterfall, unable to conceal her stunning face. A stray strand of hair playfully escaped, which she gently tucked behind her ear, truly creating a breathtaking scene!
Combined with the unique fragrance in the air, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but be moved.
"We have already signed the Life and Death Contract, in life and death together, you wanting to sleep with me is naturally possible..."
