Mentioning Hélián Jué, the corner of Yè Wǎn Wǎn’s mouth twitched slightly.
Back then, she didn’t even know how she had provoked Hélián Jué. He insisted on taking her as a direct disciple, but she never agreed.
After all, she already had her grandfather as her master, and she couldn’t recognize anyone else as her teacher.
“Hélián Jué, who doesn’t know him… He’s just an old monster, loves to challenge anyone, no matter which power he offends. As long as there’s a strong person, he goes and stirs up trouble. What’s most infuriating is that after defeating someone, he still calls them trash… What’s even more infuriating is that no one can defeat him. Of course, no one can out-insult him either. In the Independent Twelve States, Hélián Jué is practically public enemy number one…” said Běi Dǒu.
Yè Wǎn Wǎn: “…”
Yè Wǎn Wǎn strongly agreed with what Běi Dǒu said.
Back in the day, she hadn’t provoked Hélián Jué, but he had knocked her down and called her trash…
At that time, Yè Wǎn Wǎn had wanted to skin Hélián Jué alive, but she wasn’t his match, the gap was too significant.
And then, a few years ago, before Yì Líng Jūn became the head of this year’s Arbitration Association, the Association approached Yì Líng Jūn, hoping he could deal with Hélián Jué. Afterward, it was said that the two of them fought for three days and three nights without a clear winner… Being able to go toe-to-toe with Hélián Jué showed the strength of Yì’s family head.” the Third Elder added.
Yè Wǎn Wǎn was well aware of Hélián Jué’s strength. Even when she fought with some ruffians in the past, she hadn’t been beaten as badly…
“Moreover, in the entire Independent Twelve States, no one has ever seen Hélián Jué’s appearance. Every time he appears, he wears that frightening mask. It’s still a mystery what Hélián Jué really looks like,” Běi Dǒu remarked.
Yè Wǎn Wǎn nodded in agreement. Not only had they not seen Hélián Jué’s true face, even she had never seen it. Every time they met, Hélián Jué wore that terrifying mask.
However, despite Hélián Jué being an old devil, Yè Wǎn Wǎn still admired him. Although they didn’t have a master-disciple relationship, Hélián Jué had taught her a lot.
“Do you think there’s a connection between Yì Shuǐ Hán and the Yì family…” Yè Wǎn Wǎn pondered.
Hearing this, the Grand Elder smiled slightly, “There’s no connection at all. Yì Shuǐ Hán’s ‘Yì’ is just a branch of our state’s main lineage, while Yì Líng Jūn’s ‘Yì’ is a genuine noble family, completely incomparable.”
“Third Elder, Grand Elder,” Yè Wǎn Wǎn’s expression became serious.
Immediately, the two elders stepped forward.
“Both of you, first find out about the Yīn family for me,” Yè Wǎn Wǎn said.
“The Yīn family…” the Third Elder paused, “Leader, which Yīn family are you referring to?”
“Yīn Yuè Róng,” Yè Wǎn Wǎn said.
As soon as Yè Wǎn Wǎn’s words fell, both the Grand Elder and the Third Elder’s expressions changed.
“Leader, for this kind of task, I believe one person can handle it,” the Grand Elder looked at Yè Wǎn Wǎn, “The Third Elder is highly skilled and daring. Therefore, I think the Third Elder alone is sufficient.”
Before Yè Wǎn Wǎn could speak, the Third Elder hastily said, “No, no, Leader, among us, the Grand Elder is the strongest. He’s also the Grand Elder, so I believe this important task should be entrusted to him!”
Yè Wǎn Wǎn looked baffled. All she wanted was to find out what was going on with the Yīn family, and these two were pushing each other to do it…
