Beautiful Mother and Daughter

"My Martial Soul is the Five Elements Jade Seal. It possesses the Five Attributes of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. The Wood Attribute and Water Attribute have healing abilities," Ye Xiao said.

"Five Attributes? That's amazing." It was Ye Lingling's first time seeing a Martial Soul with five attributes.

"Can you let me experience it?" Ye Lingling asked.

"Sure."

The next moment, a Water Flow coiled around Ye Lingling's body, while leaves drifted down over her head.

Ye Lingling felt a pleasant comfort spread through her body and nodded. "It does have healing abilities. Although it isn't as strong as my Nine Heart Begonia, it's already very good for an all-purpose Martial Soul."

Ye Xiao nodded. Even if his First Spirit Ring became a thousand-year ring and strengthened the Five Elements Attribute, its healing ability could not surpass Ye Lingling's.

After all, the Nine Heart Begonia's group healing was extremely powerful.

Ye Lingling looked at the boy before her, whose eyes were so clear, and gently rubbed Ye Xiao's soft hair.

"Little Brother, what's your name?"

"Ye Xiao." Ye Xiao raised his face and answered obediently.

"You're also surnamed Ye?" A trace of surprise flashed through Ye Lingling's eyes. "What a coincidence. Sister's name is Ye Lingling."

"Sister Ling Ling." Ye Xiao immediately called out sweetly, a clean smile blooming across his Little Face.

[Ye Qianxue (Second Generation): Oh my god, Father, you're acting so convincingly. Even Mother Ling Ling is smiling. As expected of Father.]

[Ye Xiao: Don't talk nonsense. I'm a child to begin with.]

[Ye Kaining (Third Generation): Honestly, Grandpa is incredibly mature. He doesn't seem like a child at all—more like an adult.]

[Ye Yuanling (Third Generation): That's right. Children this age are usually still playing in the dirt.]

[Ye Kaiyang (Third Generation): What's fun about playing in the dirt? Fighting is better. **Fight!**]

That "Sister Ling Ling" put Ye Lingling in an even better mood.

She nodded and took Ye Xiao's hand on her own initiative. "Come on. I'll take you to meet my Mother first. If you want to stay with the Ye Family and help out, you'll need her approval."

Ye Xiao's hand was held in her palm.

Her hand was soft, with slender fingers, though it felt somewhat cool.

Led by Ye Lingling, Ye Xiao followed her into the Ye Mansion.

The estate was serene and elegant, with winding corridors and lush Grass and Trees. A faint herbal fragrance lingered in the air, calming the mind.

The two passed through several moon gates and arrived at a simply furnished yet elegant reception hall.

The light in the hall was soft. Antique furniture had been arranged inside, and several Ink Wash Paintings with distant artistic moods hung on the walls.

At that moment, a beautiful woman sat in the seat of honor in the reception hall.

She looked to be around thirty, at the most charming and alluring age for a woman.

Her blue Long Hair, the same color as Ye Lingling's, was loosely gathered into an elegant bun behind her head and secured with a simple Jade Hairpin.

She had a full, curvaceous figure and wore a Well-fitting Moon White Embroidered Silver Silk Qipao that outlined the graceful body of a mature woman perfectly.

She held a Fine Porcelain Teacup with elegant poise, taking small sips of tea with calm and composed movements.

Her appearance was sixty to seventy percent similar to Ye Lingling's, but she possessed the mature charm and dignified bearing accumulated through the years. Her Eyebrows and Eyes carried an air of noble elegance that made others not dare harbor even the slightest disrespectful thought.

She was Ye Lingling's mother, Ye Liuli.

[Ye Qianxue (Second Generation): It's been so long since I last saw Mother Liuli. She's still so graceful and noble, just as elegant as Mother Yuehua. The two of them often drink tea together.]

[Ye Wanqing (Fourth Generation): After all, age is age.]

[Ye Xiao: This Aunt is only in her thirties, right? Where is the man?]

[Ye Qianxue (Second Generation): He died. Not long after Mother Ling Ling was born, he was gone.]

[Ye Yuanling (Third Generation): Grandmother Liuli is still very capable. She managed the Ye Mansion all by herself. Otherwise, the Ye Mansion would have fallen apart.]

[Ye Wanqing (Fourth Generation): That's right. Grandmother Liuli should be a Spirit Saint now, the number one Healing System Soul Master in Heaven Dou City.]

[Ye Qianxue (Second Generation): Hehe... If you want to win over Mother Liuli, you have to start with Mother Ling Ling. As long as you treat Mother Ling Ling well, Mother Liuli will like you. And feelings grow over time, so take it slow. Who doesn't like a Handsome Guy? Mother Liuli will definitely like you.]

Ye Xiao's eyelids twitched wildly. His daughters really never gave him any peace of mind.

They had not even won over the daughter, yet they were already talking about her mother.

Beautiful Mother and Daughter?

"Mother." Ye Lingling walked up to her.

"Ling Ling, you've worked hard today." Hearing her voice, Ye Liuli looked up at her daughter, a gentle smile appearing on her face.

Then, her gaze fell upon Ye Xiao, whose hand Ye Lingling was holding.

A clear look of astonishment flashed through her eyes.

She set down her teacup and sized Ye Xiao up from head to toe. Her gaze paused briefly on their clasped hands, then a teasing smile appeared on her lips.

"Oh? Our Ling Ling has grown up? You already know how to bring a Little Man home? You have good taste. This Little Fellow is really handsome."

"Mother!" Ye Lingling had not expected her mother to open with such teasing. Her fair cheeks instantly flushed red.

Ashamed and Angry, she stamped her foot. Her grip on Ye Xiao's hand also tightened unconsciously. "What nonsense are you talking about? It's not what you think!"

"Alright, alright, no more jokes, no more jokes." Seeing that her daughter was truly getting anxious, Ye Liuli finally put away her teasing expression.

She looked at Ye Xiao. "Then, what is the situation with this Little Guest? Ling Ling, you didn't bring him to see me just so Mother could look at your new little friend, did you?"

After calming herself, Ye Lingling told Ye Liuli about Ye Xiao's situation.

Ye Liuli listened quietly, her expression gradually changing from casual to somewhat surprised.

This Little Fellow's luck... was a little too good, wasn't it?

Such fortuitous encounters were not unheard of in the Soul Master world, but for one to happen to such a Young Child was still exceedingly rare.

It meant that this Little Fellow had saved at least four or five years of arduous cultivation and directly begun from a higher starting point.

His Martial Soul had even evolved. The effects of that unknown Spirit Medicine were practically heaven-defying.

After Ye Lingling finished, Ye Liuli leaned forward slightly and looked at Ye Xiao, her tone serious. "Little Ye Xiao, can you honestly tell Aunt what your current Soul Power Level... actually is?

This concerns whether you truly have the ability to handle the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's assessment, and it also concerns what work you can take on in the Ye Family."

Ye Xiao knew that before an Expert like Ye Liuli, it was almost impossible to conceal his Soul Power Level.

He answered frankly, "Level 25."

"Level 25!" Even though Ye Liuli had already estimated it in her heart, when she heard that exact number, she could not help clicking her tongue softly. The shock in her eyes was impossible to conceal.
