Chapter 18 - Danny is not here

Eh? Brother Yates? What's wrong?" Danny quickly stood up with an alarmed look.

Yates revealed a completely stiff and ugly smile as he shook off the pieces of the broken wine cup from his hand. "It's nothing. I wasn't careful and lost control of my strength."

Yanni's expression wasn't better than Yates by much. He looked like someone who had just eaten a dead insect. After hearing Yates words, he quickly interrupted: "I know, it's definitely because big brother had another breakthrough in his profound Ki strength. Right after you make a breakthrough, the growth of the profound Ki strength will cause it to occasionally go out of control."

"Then it's like that!" Danny seemed to have suddenly realized, then quickly said: "Big Brother Yates unexpected had another breakthrough, congratulations! I heard that Brother Yates advanced to the third level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm three months ago. It's only been three months, and you actually had another breakthrough! It's not for nothing that you're the ace of our generation. It seems like besides Brother Yates, there's no one else that the Radd Sect could pick."

Yates face twitched. He stood up, strongly suppressing his heart's turmoil and spoke with a forced smile: "Brother Danny is flattering me. But it's true that I just had a breakthrough, and that my profound strength is a bit unstable. I must immediately stabilize it and can no longer continue to entertain you…"

"No problem, no problem!" Danny quickly waved his hand, nodding with understanding. "Of course Brother Yates stabilizing his profound strength is more important… Then, I won't continue to bother Brother Yates. Thanks you for today's invitation and hospitality. After a few days, when Brother Yates is selected by the Radd Sect, I'll definitely be the first to congratulate you."

After saying that, Danny very politely left. Yanni also pretended to leave with him, but after Danny was far away, he quickly turned around and rushed back. As soon as he entered the door, he could see Yates gloomy and frightening expression.

"Big brother… about this thing…" Seeing Yates expression, Yanni fiercely swallowed a mouth full of saliva and approached with trepidation.

"AHHHH!!" Yates let out a bellow of rage as if he was insane. He swept all of the wine and tea cups off of the table. After everything broke into pieces, he gave a ferocious kick, knocking over the stone table. His hands were clenched tight, his breath heavy with panting, and his eyes burned with flames of jealousy and hatred. A incomparably low voice escaped from his mouth: "Didn't you tell me… Emma… would never let Danny, that waste of a person, touch her?!!"

Yates very rarely went out of control. His current state caused Yanni's scalp to go numb and his back cold. He said in a panic, "It must be… it must be Danny that fellow making things up… making things up! Emma… couldn't possibly have fallen for that fellow!"

"Bullshit!" Yates said with a low roar: "Is there anything about that piece of waste, Danny, that I don't know? You think he can lie to my face? What kind of person do you think I am?"

Yates had a considerable amount of shrewdness and vision. He has known Danny for sixteen years, and believed that he knew him like the back of his own hand. He firmly believed that when it comes to this lacking profound strength , cowardly, and self-abased person, no change of his mood could escape from his eyes. When Yanni had asked him that question just now, whether it was the look in his eyes, his expression, or his subconscious behavior… none of them had any signs of guile.

Emma was the woman that he has vowed to definitely obtain. One reason why he allowed them to marry was because he was helpless to stop it. The other was that he was convinced that even if Emma married Danny, she would never give herself to him wholly. Instead, it would make things more convenient for himself. But he had never thought that on the second day of getting married, the result would be that Emma had already been sampled by Danny! !

The anger in his heart right now, along with his jealousy and resentment, was almost enough to cause his chest to burst.

Yanni stood there with his neck shrunk back, not daring to even breath loudly. In the past, Yates was slated to become the next clan master. He was always very loyal in front of him. Now that Yates was most likely going to be a member of the Radd Sect, he even more so didn't dare to oppose him.

After a long while, Yates was still panting heavily. It was obvious how large of a blow this was to him. He suddenly said in a deep voice: "Where did Danny go after leaving this place?"

"He went… went to the east courtyard. He might… might be going to the kitchen area," Yanni replied with great care.

Yates angled his eyebrows, a dark cloud hanging over his features. He muttered under his breath: "I always thought that Emmahad an exceptionally gorgeous complexion and talent, and also a dignity and aloofness that other women couldn't compare to. I didn't expect that even the most despised of the Radd Clan members could catch her interest!"

Yates let out a cold snort and with a fierce shake of his arms, walked towards the courtyard's exterior. Just as Yanni was about to catch up, he suddenly realized where he wanted to go and immediately stopped obediently. Afterwards, he slowly wiped the cold sweat off of his forehead.

Danny left Yates's courtyard and walked towards the kitchen at a normal gait to pick up some breakfast. Afterwards, he leisurely walked towards Morgan's courtyard. If anyone got close, they would be able to hear him talking to himself: "Yates should be hurrying over to my place right? Oh… I wonder if my wife Emma will break his leg? Or both legs… Hmm, or three legs?"

He reached Morgan's courtyard, but the door was securely closed. Danny knocked on the door: "Little Cousin, I brought a light breakfast."

The door opened and Danny walked in, shutting the door shut with a *bang*.

Morgan was sprawled on the table, her hands resting below her chin, and her eyelids drooping; a thoroughly weak and dispirited appearance.Danny placed the light breakfast on the table, then waved his hand in front of her face a few times: "Didn't sleep well last night?"

"Unnngh…" Upon hearing Danny mention 'last night', Morgan let out a low whimpering noise and buried her entire face in her palms: "You can still talk about last night… Emma came for you. She has seen everything… What to do, what to do… I'm too ashamed to see anyone, *sob sob sob*…"

"It's not that bad is it?" Danny rubbed his forehead, then sat at her side. He said with a smile: "Rest easy. You're my little Cousin. What's wrong with us sleeping while snuggling together?"

"It's exactly because I'm your little Cousin…" Morgan shook her head as if she was being driven mad. "Also… all of morning, your hand was on my… my… *sob*… she must have seen everything! What should I do if she tells someone… what should I do…"

"Relax, she definitely won't tell anyone else. Besides, you're my little aunt. What's the big deal if I accidentally touched your breast?" Danny very calmly stated.

"You, you, you… aren't allowed to talk anymore!" Morgan shook her head even harder, her entire cheek blushing. The reason why she acted that way early morning must have been because they were alone, in the dark, and her heart was in a state of confusion. Thinking back now, she even more so believed that she must have been insane at that time.

"I'm one hundred percent sure. Even if she did see, she absolutely won't tell anyone. To begin with, she wouldn't think in that… hmm, in the direction that you're thinking of. Alright, come quickly eat breakfast or it'll get cold," Danny comforted her with a light laugh. When thinking about the same thing, a woman's heart was after all, different from a man's.

"Oh…" Morgan at long last lifted her face from her palms and began to tear-ly eat the breakfast that Danny brought.

As Danny expected, Yates headed straight towards his courtyard as soon as he left. As soon as he entered, he spotted Emma currently standing in the center of the courtyard.

Emma calmly stood under the pomegranate tree in the center of the courtyard with her arms raised high. Her expression was calm and serious; clearly she was quietly cultivating her profound strength. Her long hair naturally spilled over her shoulders, soft and glossy under the morning light. On her lovely face were two black thin and curvy eyebrows, similar to a pair of crescent moons. Her two tranquil pupils, clear like crystals, were like the radiance of a flowing dream. Her entire body was covered by a red dress, her faintly discernible curves slim and beautiful; a contrast to the creamy, white jade-like skin.

This was Yates first time seeing Emma's full peerless magnificence up close and personal like this. In that instant, he was thoroughly stupefied on the spot, all of his attention drawn to this exceedingly beautiful scene in front of his eyes. The rest of the world, in a blink of an eye, lost its color.

Upon noticing Yates arrival, Emma's posture didn't change at all. Her eyes continued to gaze ahead while a calm voice left her mouth: "Danny is not here."

Her voice was cold and indifferent, yet was as sweet and comforting as that of a fairy. Danny only then returned to his senses, but there was no way to suppress the stunned and infatuated look in his eyes. He immediately adjusted himself to his best mode and bowed slightly towards Emma, saying with a smile: "Hello Lady Ross. I am Yates, Danny's elder brother."

Emma was not an excessively cold and haughty person. The other person's mild language and respectful posture and voice caused her to glance at him. Also, it's not as if she hadn't heard of the name Yates. After all, he is the son of this generation's Radd Clan's clan first elder. Just as she was glancing at him, preparing to politely respond, she saw the overwhelming infatuation in Yates's eyes… and his obscene desires!

Immediately, her fine eyebrows twitched. Her trace of goodwill to the previous polite behavior and refined appearance of this man turned into disgust in a flash. Even thoughDanny would frequently cause her heart to erupt into anger with his vulgar mouth and uncouth hands, but at the very least, she never saw any trace of obscene desires in his eyes. But this Yates on the other hand…

Emma's dull voice suddenly contained a hint of coldness, her words became even more to the point: "Danny is not here."

In the face of Emma's clear coldness, Yates seemed to be in disbelief. He nodded his head, saying: "That's really too bad. However, I've heard many good things about Lady Ross. To be able to see Lady Ross makes this trip worth it."

As he spoke, Yates movements, facial expression, look, and voice all changed to the most perfect state, showing off his own charm. He was confident that he was thousands of times stronger than Danny. If Emma can fall for even Danny, how could she resist him once he puts forward the effort?

"I'm currently cultivating, forgive me for not being able to receive visitors." Emma's eyes were tranquil, but her voice already carrying a tinge of annoyance.

A truly beautiful woman would warm the heart and delight the eyes regardless of their posture or expression. Seeing the seemingly fairy turned to human Emma, Yates's eyes grew more and more passionate. The jealousy in his heart also burned hotter and hotter… This kind of fairy among humans actually became that waste, Danny's, wife, but had also been seized by a pig! It was simply… a complete waste, something he could not accept nor forgive!

"Upon hearing that Lady Ross had just turned sixteen this year, but had already cultivated to the 9th level of the Profound Ki Disciple Realm, Yates has always admired you, and been fascinated without end. I believe that when Lady Ross reaches my age, you'll definitely be considerably stronger than me." Yates moderated his mood, his face gentle as he spoke: "However, even though there's only one level between the tenth level of the Profound Ki Profound Realm and the first level of the Nascent Profound Realm, but without a path, it is still quite hard to cross that gap. Though I dare not compare my talent with that of Lady Ross, with my experience, I still have quite a bit of insight towards breaking past the Profound Ki Disciple Realm. How about I exchange pointers with Lady Ross for a bit?"

As he finished speaking, Yates walked forward with a smiling expression, his hands gathering his profound strength before reaching for Emma's snowy hand.

Emma may be astonishingly talented, but she was still only in the Profound ki Disciple Realm. Yates was already at the third level of the Profound Ki Practitioner Realm and so definitely had the qualifications to teach Emma… At least that's what he believed.

Seeing that Yates not only had obscene desires in his eyes, but had also moved his hands, Emma's beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with a blue light. She abruptly held out a hand, empty handedly pushing in Yates direction.

Seeing that Emma's hand had unexpectedly extended her jade like hand out of her own will, Yates eyes revealed a happy expression. He was just about to grab her when he suddenly felt an irresistible force ruthlessly slam into his stomach. With no chance to make a sound, his body flew straight out, flipping in the air once, before falling head first onto the ground. At the same time, his two front teeth where knocked free.

Yates standing amongst the Radd Clan was extremely high. If a women that had married into the Radd Clan were to receive his sexual harassment, even if she could overpower him, she wouldn't dare harm him. However, what kind of backing did Emma have? Behind her was Joyful Flower Palace. Even if she beat him until he fell flat on his face, even if she asked for his life, once her status as a disciple of Joyful Flower Palace came to light, Yates wouldn't dare complain, but would rather be forced to apologize with a smiling face.
