Yu Mei was waiting outside the main hall when she saw Ye Xuan approaching.
"Dear, what was the meeting about? Is it related to the Tatanka clan ancestor's visit to the royal banquet?" Ye Xuan looked at her in surprise, "How did you know about this matter?" He was astonished by Yu Mei's accurate guess.
Yu Mei questioned him, "Is it a serious situation?"
Ye Xuan smiled, "No, not serious, but very important news."
As they walked towards Yu Mei's chamber, he continued, "It's related to the secret realm founded by our ancestor and others 30 years ago."
He repeated the whole story from the recent meeting, "It seems I won't be able to participate, but you, Shi Liang, and the kids can benefit from this journey."
Yu Mei was equally perplexed as the others when she learned about the strange conditions for entering the secret realm.
Yu Mei asked, "So, what are the conditions related to the Tatanka clan?" Ye Xuan also didn't have a clear answer, "We can only find out when we attend the imperial banquet."
Ye leaned towards her, "I have to go and prepare according to the Grand Elder's command." He kissed her on the lips, "We'll continue this later, what was disturbed by the clan meeting call." He winked, leaving his saliva on her lips, and then departed.
As she wiped away the saliva, she realized she was already in the outer part of her chamber, and the Guard was gazing at her with hungry eyes. "It seems he won't forget about the previous incident so easily," she thought.
For some reason, she ignored his lustful gaze and entered her chamber.
Meanwhile Ye yang,
"Task one is next to impossible; kissing a woman in front of the whole council will definitely not have a good ending," he pondered.
"Only the 2nd task is somewhat easier in comparison to task one, and to reach the 9th level of Qi Awakening, I must do whatever it takes to complete this task."
He waited for darkness to consume the city, as it would be better for him to perform the task under the cover of a dark night.
"This is the best time," he thought, using the Invincible Cultivation Sutra to conceal his presence from the watchful eyes of the Ye Manor's people.
He entered the alleyway, his face covered with a multi-layered mask, while his body was naked below it. He took a deep breath and whispered to himself, "Let's go."
Although he was not far from the Ye Manor, it was impossible to tell if he was part of the clan, as he was running naked through the streets. People were astonished to see someone daring to run naked in a crowded street.
At first, he felt ashamed, but then he remembered how his own clan members looked down on him, ridiculed him, and even his father had forgotten about his presence.
He wanted to change his life; he wanted to let the world know his name.
The system was like a second chance for him, so he decided to complete every task given by the system.
Right now, his biggest motivation was his increasing cultivation - the more he ran, the more he felt his cultivation rise.
He yelled, "Yaahoooooo!" People believed he was mentally retarded and psycho, keeping a safe distance from him and Soon, he became infamous as the "Running Naked Psycho."
Meanwhile in the chamber of clan head,
He sat in a traditional Japanese-style 'kotatsu' while Grand Elder Ye Tianxing sat before him.
Clan Head Ye Wanshu instructed, "Do everything in your power to select the best candidates for the upcoming banquet."
The Grand Elder responded with a proud smile, "Have I ever disappointed you?" His gaze drifted towards the centre of the slightly shaking 'kotatsu'.
The Clan Leader shifting slightly back and closing his eyes. "Hmmm," he murmured.
"I felt your piercing gaze at the meeting hall; what is it that you want this time?" he questioned, still not looking at the Grand Elder.
Grand Elder Ye Tianxing smiled, "You know me best, after all."
He continued, "I've tamed a new bit*h, and I want you to support her son as much as possible for the upcoming Secret Realm expedition."
He smiled; his eyes gleaming with mysterious power.
"Hoh,"
the Clan Leader exclaimed, looking at the Grand Elder for the first time, "You're still engaging in those activities?"
The Grand Elder patted the kotatsu, "Look who's talking," he mocked, gazing at the Clan Leader.
The Clan Leader smiled, his hand patting someone hidden underneath the kotatsu. "She may be old, but she's still the best," he said with a hint of pride.
He didn't feel offended by the Grand Elder's words; instead, he felt a sense of pride and accomplishment.
The Grand Elder let out a disapproving "tsk..." and smiled, "Saving the best for yourself, I presume?"
The Clan Leader raised an eyebrow, "So, who are we talking about?"
The Grand Elder's smile grew wider, "The proud lady of our clan, Shi Liang." His gaze sent a shiver down Ye Wanshu's spine.
The Clan Leader's eyes narrowed, "So, she's the one you've managed to sway this time?" He looked at the Grand Elder with a mix of surprise and admiration.
The Grand Elder chuckled, denying the Clan Leader's claim, "She's just a starter, and there are many more left for you. We can't declare a real winner just yet."
Hearing this clan leader smiled, "true" then he ordered the woman under the kotatsu, turn around and help him to release some stress.
The women turned under the table and grabbed the dragon of grand elder while her back was positioning close to the clan leader's dragon.
