Chapter 145 – Let them disappear tonight.

“That kid has reached the 4th Revolution…”

In the darkness, two black-clad figures watched Ye Sheng’s departing back, one of them looking utterly stunned.

“Master, how did the young master manage it?” Beside him, the other black-clad man was also bewildered.

As they spoke, their figures seemed to exist within a dimensional space. People constantly passed by, yet no one noticed them, as if the two were not there at all.

Some even walked right through their bodies without feeling a thing.

Manipulating space—this was something only high-tier cultivators could achieve!

“Huh? Could it be that he has awakened the bloodline treasure body of our Ye Family?” The burly man in black scratched his head, looking puzzled, but then shook his head. “Not yet. I don’t sense the slightest trace of bloodline awakening from Xiao Sheng!

His bloodline treasure body is still dormant!”

The attendant nodded upon hearing this. “Exactly! If the young master’s bloodline treasure body had awakened, stepping into the 5th Revolution Ghost King Realm would be effortless, let alone a mere 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm?”

“Haha, that’s right! Once our Ye Family’s treasure body awakens, one is innately at the 5th Revolution Ghost King Realm! Incredibly powerful!” The burly man in black laughed heartily, somewhat proud.

Their lineage had always been unique since ancient times!

“Master, it’s time to leave! If we stay too long, we’ll attract attention!” the attendant reminded. “If we expose the young master, he’ll be in mortal danger!”

“Right, right, right! Xiao Sheng’s safety comes first. How else could I explain it to my elder brother?” The burly man in black nodded hurriedly. “By the way, did Lu Shushan say anything?”

The attendant sneered. “That old man is very pragmatic. I gave him some benefits, and he agreed to sever ties with the young master without hesitation, as if afraid I’d change my mind!”

“This family… short-sighted!” A cold glint flashed in the burly man’s eyes before he nodded. “But it’s just as well. It’s time to break away from the Lu Family.

This family acts recklessly, especially that Lu Ming—sooner or later, he’ll bring about a great catastrophe! Better to avoid dragging Xiao Sheng down with them in the future!”

“Exactly!” the attendant agreed.

As they spoke, their figures standing in the dimensional space gradually blurred and faded.

But just before disappearing completely, the burly man in black said calmly, “As for that so-called Bai Family… let them vanish tonight…

Remember, leave no traces!

How dare they lay a hand on someone from our Ye Family?”

“Yes, Master! This matter is quite simple!”

Their casual conversation would have shocked anyone who overheard it.

After all, the Bai Family had a Ghost King Realm Patriarch stationed within their clan year-round!

Yet in their words, he was like an ant, easily crushed with a flick of the hand.

…

Guishan City, an upscale villa district.

Land here was worth its weight in gold, located in the city’s core area. Those who lived here were either wealthy or influential.

One villa was brightly lit and lavishly decorated.

At the entrance, an elderly steward stood with his granddaughter, waiting for the villa’s owner to return home.

“Grandpa, I heard the Family Head is very young?” The granddaughter, tall and slender with her hair in a ponytail, had a pure appearance. Dressed in a school uniform, she was a high school student, now looking curiously at the grandfather who had raised her.

The elderly steward smiled kindly and nodded. “The Family Head is indeed young, only a few years older than you.”

“Is that so? Someone so young already owns such a large villa?” The girl was astonished. “Did his family buy it for him?”

The elderly steward shook his head. “No, the Family Head bought it with his own money. He was also the one who hired me.”

As he spoke, the elderly steward smiled wryly. “If it weren’t for the Family Head, Grandpa might not even be able to afford your tuition fees anymore. We must remember to be grateful!”

“Mhm!” The girl nodded, growing increasingly curious about this mysterious Family Head.

A moment later.

“He’s here.” The elderly steward’s eyes lit up as he looked toward the residential area.

A young man in a white robe was seen strolling over. His demeanor was gentle and refined, giving off an amiable and approachable vibe. At first glance, he easily left a favorable impression.

The girl also widened her eyes to look.

“Family Head, you’ve returned.” The elderly steward bowed slightly and stepped forward to greet him.

The newcomer was none other than Ye Sheng. Upon hearing this, he nodded with a smile. “Steward Chi, thank you for your hard work!”

Chi Gong shook his head gratefully. “If it weren’t for you, Xiao Ran and I would still be living on the streets!”

“Thank you for taking us in!” Chi Xiao Ran said shyly, her face flushed as she expressed her gratitude.

Ye Sheng chuckled. “Steward Chi, you’re a three-star steward. Others would struggle to hire you—I’m the one getting the better deal.”

Chi Gong was the steward Ye Sheng had hired after casually purchasing a villa. Managing such a large property alone would have been impractical and cumbersome, so hiring a steward made things much more convenient!

Chi Gong was a three-star steward who had spent his entire life in this profession. The reason he had remained unemployed for so long was his insistence on bringing his granddaughter to live with him.

Some wealthy individuals were unwilling to accommodate this and chose others instead.

Ye Sheng, however, had no issue with it. Having an extra person in the spacious villa would make it feel more lively, especially since it was a vibrant and lovely young girl.

Seeing her, Ye Sheng felt as if he were looking at himself from a few years ago—simple and carefree!

“Xiao Ran, you’re almost eighteen, right?” Ye Sheng turned his gaze toward Chi Xiao Ran.

Upon turning eighteen, one would naturally undergo a Class Change. Chi Xiao Ran’s age was likely approaching that milestone.

“Mhm! I’m seventeen this year, so it won’t be long now!” Chi Xiao Ran nodded shyly, her fair hands fidgeting nervously. Whenever she saw Ye Sheng, she couldn’t help feeling inexplicably tense, yet she couldn’t resist stealing glances at him.

She always felt that Ye Sheng’s aura was exceptionally unique. Compared to him, the boys at her school seemed utterly unremarkable, as if they were still immature youngsters.

“I hope you get a good Class!” Ye Sheng said with a smile. A good Class undoubtedly determined one’s future prospects.

“Family Head, let’s head inside. It’s quite windy out here,” Chi Gong suggested.

“Alright!”

…

Half an hour later, Ye Sheng had settled Chi Gong’s arrangements, ensuring a fixed monthly sum would be transferred to his account to cover the villa’s upkeep and his substantial salary as a three-star steward.

Ye Sheng himself then entered the villa’s underground cultivation chamber.

The reason he had chosen this villa was precisely because it came with a massive underground cultivation chamber.

Constructed from extremely sturdy alloy-reinforced concrete and specifically designed for Cultivators, it was as large as a basketball court and located underground, ensuring absolute tranquility.

Of course, Ye Sheng had paid a hefty sum for it.

But for him now, Federal Coins were merely numbers—hardly an issue at all.

Chi Xiaolu watched as Ye Sheng turned and entered the cultivation chamber, feeling a bit reluctant. Ye Sheng seemed easy to get along with and didn’t put on any airs. Most importantly, he was young and accomplished, only a few years older than her.

Chi Gong, however, solemnly warned, “No matter what happens, you must not disturb the Family Head. This is our principle and bottom line for staying here! Do you understand?”

“Yes! I understand, Grandpa!” Chi Xiaolu stuck out her tongue, feeling as though her grandfather had seen right through her.
