In the main hall of the Ye Family in Lin Town, the Third Elder, who was over sixty years old, was sitting upright. A manservant accompanied him and served him tea attentively.
"Has Ning 'er returned?" The Third Elder took a sip and looked up to ask.
"Young Master Ning has not returned yet," the manservant answered.
The Third Elder frowned slightly.
"Third Elder, should we send someone to take a look?" The manservant suggested.
However, the Third Elder laughed coldly and said disapprovingly, "Why do we need to send someone? Ye Qingtang is already a cripple. Any guard in the residence can easily subdue her, much less Ning 'er. I'm afraid that after Ning' er finished his business, he went on a leisurely stroll in the mountains for half a day. There's no need to worry. "
The Third Elder was not at all worried that any accidents would happen.
The manservant did not dare to say anything else and carefully retreated to the side.
Ye Qingtang's father was the master of the Ye Family in Lin Town, but he and his wife had disappeared half a year ago. It was also in this half a year that the Great Elder colluded with Ye You to forcefully dig out Ye Qingtang's supreme-grade spirit root and insisted on eliminating Ye Qingtang. Firstly, it was to erase Ye You's dark history. Secondly, it was because the Great Elder should be able to inherit the Ye Family in Lin Town once the heir to the family died.
There were a total of three elders in the Ye Family. Apart from the Second Elder who was in seclusion, the Great Elder had already roped in the Third Elder to get rid of Ye Qingtang when the Great Elder personally sent Ye You into the sect. It could be said that the current Ye Family was already under the Great Elder's control. Everyone in the residence watched coldly as Ye Qingtang fell into deep trouble.
The Third Elder was very confident in his grandson's skills. Although Ye Ning's spirit root was not as good as Ye Qingtang's and Ye You's, it was still not bad. It was a piece of cake for him to deal with Ye Qingtang who had lost her spirit root.
Just as the Third Elder was patiently waiting for Ye Ning to return with the good news, a guard ran into the main hall in a panic.
"Third Elder! He … he's back … "The guard's face was as white as a sheet, and his expression was abnormal.
The Third Elder raised his cup contentedly. "So what if he's back? There's no need to make such a fuss. Get someone to prepare food and wine for Ning 'er. He's worked hard tonight."
The guard hurriedly shook his head and spat out the words he hadn't finished speaking while trembling, "No … it's not Young Master Ning! It's … it's Eldest Miss … she's back. "
Crash! The cup in the Third Elder's hand fell to the ground. He raised his head in disbelief and stared at the guard, "What? Who did you say came back? Eldest Miss? Which young mistress? "
The guard still wanted to say something, but a slender figure had already arrived at the entrance of the hall.
"Third Elder is really getting on in years. Apart from me, who else in the Ye Family of Lin Town is worthy of the title of Eldest Young Mistress?" A female voice filled with laughter rang in Third Elder's ears. He suddenly raised his head …
Ye Qingtang's figure was imprinted in his eyes. Although her clothes were a little ragged, she was still alive!
"Ye Qingtang! The Third Elder stared in shock at Ye Qingtang, who was supposed to be dead, standing in front of him. His eyes were filled with unspeakable shock.
