In fact, the reason why the Underworld's Forbidden Area was called a Forbidden Area was not because of how dangerous it was, but because the price to open the Forbidden Area was too great. Under normal circumstances, the Forbidden Area would never be opened.
Only when the Underworld has a peerless genius would the people of the Underworld be willing to open the Forbidden Area! Therefore, in recent years, the only one who could enter the forbidden area was Miss Huang Ying! Furthermore, it was in the forbidden area that Huang Ying's cultivation speed increased, causing her cultivation to soar.
Of course, with Qianbei Ye's status, he could also enter the Forbidden Area. Unfortunately, he had rejected this opportunity! Not to mention the Elders of the Manor, even the Manor Lord did not understand why he was unwilling to go to the Forbidden Area.
Only Qianbei Ye knows that the Forbidden Area is of no use to him. Entering the Forbidden Area would only be a waste of time.

"What did you say?"
In the Underworld's meeting room, a middle-aged man suddenly rose to his feet with an extremely ugly look on his face, "You say that the Young Master has returned? And he even brought back a woman? "
"Not bad."
The person who had spoken was a white-haired old man. He nodded and said, "Many people had seen the Young Master bringing a woman back to the Underworld. Furthermore, he had arranged for the woman to stay in his room. Based on this, it seems that the woman's relationship with the Palace Lord is not ordinary. Palace Lord, how should we resolve this matter? Miss Huang Ying … "
"Humph! “
The Palace Lord snorted coldly as his eyes turned gloomy. "Young Master will definitely marry Ying 'er. As for that woman, if she's sensible, she'll be allowed to become Young Master's concubine. If she's disobedient, we'll have to get rid of her. I won't allow anyone to affect Ying' er's position. “
No! It should be that he would not allow anyone to affect his position!
After all, ever since he had become the Palace Lord, he had always gotten whatever he wanted! If this position were to be given to Qianbei Ye, it would be equivalent to him losing his power.
How could he endure this? Hence, he wanted Qianbei Ye to marry Huang Ying. That way, he would be able to act like a tyrant in the Underworld as the Palace Lord's father-in-law!
"Everyone, I know that all of you have thoughts about the Young Master. Therefore, we need to work together now! If Ying 'er were to become the mistress, she would at least let the daughters of the elders become the young master's concubines! However, if that outsider woman were to seize this position, I'm afraid there would be many unforeseen events. "
The Prefecture Lord's deep voice resounded throughout the meeting room.
All the elders fell silent for a moment and looked at each other. In the end, it was the white-haired old man who spoke earlier who continued, "But he's the Young Lord after all. How can we force him?"
"You said it yourself, he's the young master!" The elders looked at the white-haired old man and calmly said, "Since he's the Young Master, he must listen to the Palace Master's orders! As long as I'm the Palace Lord, I'll be in charge of the Underworld! "
The white-haired elder wanted to say something but was interrupted by the other elders.
"Elder Tianyi, you don't have a granddaughter in your family so naturally, you wouldn't care who the Palace Lord marries. However, I have a granddaughter in my family who wants to become the Palace Lord's woman. Hence, no one here has more authority than us. Besides, who knows the origins of the woman that the Young Master has taken a liking to? After all, Lady Huang Ying is the Palace Lord's daughter so she is the most suitable candidate to become the Young Madam. At least, she has not done anything that is detrimental to the Underworld. "
Hearing this, Elder Tianyi sighed and his eyes carried a sense of worry. "The Young Master is the chosen one by those old fellows. If we were to treat him like this and anger those old fellows …"
Just as the others had said, Elder Tianyi did not have a granddaughter of a suitable age in his family. Hence, he had not been blinded by greed and was the clearest out of everyone here.
Unfortunately, he was unable to turn the situation around on his own.
Who would give up on the benefits that were within reach!
"Elder Tianyi, you don't have to worry about this. We've already obeyed the Ancestral Elders' orders and made him the Young Master of the Underworld! At the very least, we should be the ones to decide the Young Madam's choice! The Ancestral Elders do not care about the Underworld's matters so some matters should be decided by me, the Palace Lord! "
The Palace Lord furrowed his brows, clearly dissatisfied with Elder Tianyi's words.
"He's the Young Master while I'm the Palace Lord! You should know very well whose words carry the most weight. "
The Palace Lord's tone of voice softened as he spoke and the space between his brows filled with confidence.
"Besides, no one knows men better than I do. We're not stopping him from being with the woman he loves! We're only making that woman his concubine! As long as he can have that woman, what difference does it make whether she's the Young Madam or a concubine? It's normal for a man to have three or four wives and concubines. I believe that the Young Master won't reject the opportunity to have one on each side. "
