"Are you sure your brother will contact them?" Inside an incredibly complex Independent Space, the Headmaster, who had reverted to his true slime form after expending too much energy, asked Xi Ye curiously.
"He definitely will..." Xi Ye lazily stretched. High-purity Nutrient Solution truly wasn't something he could digest quickly at his current level. The excessive energy meant his body needed more time to process it, leaving his mind groggy and making him want to sleep a little longer.
But even though a large amount of blood had rushed into his stomach for digestion and the lack of oxygen in his brain had made him drowsy, that didn't stop him from answering the Headmaster's question.
Because... he understood his cousin, and even his cousin's entire family, far too well...
His mother had once given a very precise assessment of his uncle's family: a bunch of short-sighted people.
His uncle was extremely short-sighted. He was willing to sell out the interests of the entire family for the sake of his own household, which was why he had schemed to have Xi Ye's parents' genes taken away. But he had never considered that once the family itself was weakened, even if he seized control of it, its value would still be greatly diminished.
Back then, Xi Ye had gone out as a Celestial God, while Raine's position as the family heir had already been set in stone. No one would have competed with Raine for the position of family heir. Yet even so, out of unfounded concerns, they suppressed Xi Ye, whom the family had spent enormous resources cultivating, as well as Xi Ye's parents, who were among the few members of the Eldia Family capable of becoming dragon-level powerhouses.
They had forcibly destroyed the Eldia Family's chance to become nobles!
