Tang Wan was warm and gentle like water . It was very normal for her to have pursuers . If she could find someone suitable, Ye Futian would naturally be happy for him . As for the Nangong Jiao that the young man had mentioned, he seemed to have heard of her before . The girl he'd climbed Book Mountain with was named Nangong Jiao, right? She hadn't left a strong impression . Ye Futian just remembered that she was a bit proud .
"No, it's not suitable for me to go to a family gathering," Tang Wan said gently . She smiled and shook her head . She seemed to be uninterested in this young man .
"No worries . Qingxuan can go too," the young man continued . "We're all in the same clan and Nangong Jiao had also brought her fellow disciples from the College to celebrate together . This is a very rare chance . Not only will you see geniuses, you'll also see some Nobles . "
"I'm not going," Yi Qingxuan said and leaned into Yu Sheng . What did this have to do with her?
"Same clan?" Ye Futian was confused and glanced at Hua Fengliu and Tang Lan .
Tang Lan glared at him . She hadn't given him a nice look yet, which frustrated Ye Futian . Why did she hate him? What did he do wrong?
"There are many academies in the Divine Capital . We are now teaching at the Zhen Wu Academy . Tang Wan and Qingxuan are also studying there," Tang Lan said to Ye Futian . "Brother Nangong is also a teacher there . "
"I see . " Ye Futian nodded . His master obviously wouldn't stay at home all the time . The Divine Capital was one of the three major cities in the Eastern Barren Territory . It was very busy and naturally had many academies . Though they couldn't be compared with the top forces, they were still skilled . His master could teach there without any problems . While teaching, he could learn as well .
"Brother Fengliu, why have I never seen these two before?" Nangong Cheng asked .
"This is my student . That is Yi Xiang's student," Hua Fengliu answered with a smile . "Since Wan'er doesn't want to go, then she won't go . Thank you for your invitation . "
The young man's eyes flashed . He scanned Ye Futian, the animosity growing .

Yi Qingxuan and Yu Sheng's relationship was already clear . Yi Xiang's student was with his daughter . Then if Tang Wan was Tang Lan's student and Ye Futian was Hua Fengliu's student, perhaps…
Ye Futian was also extremely attractive .
"I see . " Nangong Cheng smiled and nodded . He didn't mind . Hua Fengliu's cultivation was extraordinary while those who studied in the Zhen Wu Academy were mostly lower . His student wouldn't be that important either, though his outer appearance was nice . He looked like a ladies' man, just like Hua Fengliu .
The two beauties besides Hua Fengliu were very pretty, especially Nandou Wenyin .
"Brother Fengliu, you don't have to reject me so quickly," Nangong Cheng said cheerily . "You can bring your family to the Nangong Family's gathering and gain some experiences . You can see what our family is like and the younger ones can learn some things . "
Nangong Cheng's tone was calm but there was an undertone of superiority . After all, he was from the Nangong Family . Even if he wasn't from the heir's line, he was still better than Hua Fengliu . If not for the fact that he seemed to have a treasure, Nangong Cheng wouldn't try so hard .
"It's rare for my student to come back so we want to spend more time together . We won't go disturb the Nangong Family . " Hua Fengliu shook his head . His student didn't need to go to the Nangong Family to learn . This guy had made a mess in the Qin Dynasty earlier . It was rare for someone in the Eastern Barren Territory who didn't know him .
"Brother Fengliu, you're really embarrassing me . " Nangong Cheng was clearly unhappy . Hua Fengliu was giving him a hard time . His son had feelings for Tang Wan and he'd planned to have his son marry her after succeeding with this event . If Tang Wan had the honor to marry into the Nangong Family, Hua Fengliu and the others would naturally rely on them . At that time, it would be much easier to get that treasure .
It would take some time but no one could say anything about it . It was killing two birds with one stone . However, Hua Fengliu and Tang Wan seemed to not know their place .
Ye Futian frowned . Their attitude completely changed once they were rejected . "Are you really important?" Ye Futian glanced at Nangong Cheng .
Nangong Cheng scanned him and smiled thinly . "I am speaking with your teacher . You're in no place to speak . Where are your manners?"

"You're not qualified to talk about manners . " Nandou Wenyin's expression turned cold too .
Nangong Cheng glanced at Nandou Wenyin and smirked . They really were so proud . "Since we are cultivating in the same place, I won't take offense in this . It is Tang Wan's luck to be noticed by my son . You can decide what you should do . Goodbye," Nangong Cheng said indifferently . Then he turned and walked away . His eyes glinted .
If they were that arrogant, they would have to wait and see .
Ye Futian watched the receding backsides . His eyes turned cold . Was the Nangong Family that arrogant? Not even the Cottage would act like this outside .
"Master, why are you friends with these people?" Ye Futian asked .
"You think everyone's like you, cultivating happily in the Cottage and not needing to care about anything in the outside world?" Tang Lan said . "The Nangong Family is a Noble family in the Divine Capital . They're very powerful . Even if we don't want to be friends, we can't offend them either . "
"Aunt Tang, you can tell them I'm Master's student . Then they won't bother you all," Ye Futian said .
"Don't you know that your master likes his dignity?" Tang Lan glanced at Hua Fengliu and Ye Futian was embarrassed . He obviously knew his master's personality .
It was normal to brag about your teacher . However, bragging about your student… Hua Fengliu probably felt it was humiliating . Furthermore, Ye Futian was now a famous person in the Eastern Barren Territory . If his master bragged about him outside, it could cause negativity . Thinking of this, Ye Futian felt bad . It seemed that he wasn't being a very good student .
"We must solve this," Yi Xiang said now . "Nangong Cheng keeps bothering us because he discovered accidentally that your master has a cultivating treasure . It's the stone statue you gave him . Nangong Cheng had asked about it curiously and acted really close to us . He also had his son pursue Tang Wan for this . You saw earlier . He'll try other tactics . "
Ye Futian's eyes flashed . He saw that the other didn't have good intentions but this was easy to solve .
"How about I go back and ask if you all can cultivate in the mountain," he said to Hua Fengliu .

"Nonsense," Hua Fengliu uttered . Looking at him, he said, "You only have one teacher in the Cottage . What will we do up there?"
What was the Cottage? It was a holy land for cultivation . There weren't even ten people in it now but Ye Futian wanted them all to go? What was that for? He wouldn't go even if the Cottage agreed .
"Even though you have a bad temper, you're still my master . No matter how many people teach me, your status won't go down . " Seeing Hua Fengliu look at him, Ye Futian chuckled . "Are you touched?"
"There's nothing to be touched about," Hua Fengliu said . "Even if I'm not your master, I'm still your father-in-law . "
With that, Hua Fengliu gave Ye Futian a look . Status? A father-in-law's status was quite high, right?
Ye Futian stared at Hua Fengliu . He had to admit defeat . However, he smiled brightly and went to massage Hua Fengliu's shoulders . "Father-in-law, you're right . When can I get married to Jieyu?"
"Depends on my mood," Hua Fengliu said while enjoying the massage . Let's see if this guy dares to act proud in front of me .
"Then how do you feel now?"
"Not that great," Hua Fengliu answered lazily . Ye Futian felt depressed . They all said that mothers-in-law were difficult but his Masteress loved him . His Master-plus-father-in-law was impossible .
Ye Futian didn't leave . He planned on spending a few days with Master and Masteress . Jieyu wasn't here while he was always at the Cottage . He wasn't doing his duties as a student .
Yu Sheng hadn't seen Qingxuan in a long while either .
…
The next day was the birthday celebration of a Nangong elder . There were many guests . Countless people came to congratulate him . As a Noble family, the Nangong Family had a rich heritage and many connections .
Many people wanted to take part in the birthday celebration . Furthermore, they'd heard that the daughter had come back . It seemed to be her grandfather's birthday . A lot of people wanted to see how talented she was for entering the College .
Apparently, not only was Nangong Jiao talented, she was also very pretty . Many boys were excited to see her true appearance .
People were outside the mansion, busily welcoming the guests . Just then, a Black Wind Eagle flew down and landed outside . It walked towards the girl welcoming guests .
"Sir, what is your name?" the servant asked with a smile . The guests had to report their titles . Not everyone could enter the Nangong Family .
"Help me pass this letter to Nangong Jiao . " The man was Ye Futian . He took out a letter and gave it to the servant .
The servant's eyes flashed and looked up at Ye Futian . "Uh…"
Nangong Jiao was so high-up that the servant could rarely see her, let alone pass a stranger's letter .
"This letter is from the Book Mountain . Just do what I said," Ye Futian said nonchalantly . After giving the letter, he flew away on the Black Wind Eagle .
He didn't want to waste time with someone from the Nangong Family . A letter was enough .
The servant watched Ye Futian's figure with sparkling eyes . The man was so handsome and didn't seem to have been joking . Thinking of this, she turned and entered the Nangong Family!
