Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Three days later, when Ye Leng’an emerged from the alchemy room, her face bore a satisfied smile.

Inspired by the characteristics of certain spiritual plants recorded in that ancient tome, she had made significant progress in alchemy over these three days. She had ascended to the rank of alchemy grandmaster, surpassing even the high-level alchemists. This achievement surpassed her previous accomplishments in cultivation.

Back then, she had reached the Ascension Stage in her cultivation but had only achieved the status of a high-level alchemist. Unexpectedly, she had now broken through to the level of an alchemy grandmaster. In the realm of alchemy, she was now unparalleled in the Hidden World. Even in the cultivation world, alchemy grandmasters were rare.

Furthermore, her breakthrough in alchemy had propelled her cultivation forward. The previous barriers she felt had been completely shattered. She had advanced beyond the Split Soul Stage, reaching the middle stage in one go. With this pace, she could soon regain her former peak cultivation.

Yet, she still couldn’t discern the extent of Huangfu Ruiling’s cultivation. She couldn’t help but wonder about his realm of cultivation.

Although curious, she had never asked. She felt it wasn’t crucial. Besides, she believed time would reveal everything.

In just three days, Ye Leng’an had made significant strides in both cultivation and alchemy, filling her with excitement.

Such joyous news naturally warranted sharing. And the obvious choice was Huangfu Ruiling.

When Ye Leng’an called, Huangfu Ruiling was in a meeting.

In the quiet conference room, only the HR manager was presenting. Though it was a simple report, he appeared tense, his back glistening with sweat.

Despite the CEO not directly scrutinizing him, the manager sensed an invisible pressure, causing him to tense up. This atmosphere extended to everyone else, as each felt the weight of the CEO’s presence. The CEO’s reputation for being exacting meant no one dared to be careless during meetings.

Even so, countless individuals vied for positions at Huangye Group each year. The company offered top-tier salaries and ample opportunities for advancement.

As tension filled the room, a sudden ring broke the silence. Instantly, everyone tensed, fearing their own oversight in silencing their phones.

In a previous meeting, a manager forgot to silence his phone, resulting in an embarrassing interruption. Shortly after, he was replaced.

Now, everyone was eager to discover who had committed this mistake.

As speculation abounded, the CEO calmly retrieved his phone, softening his expression upon seeing the caller ID.

The CEO signaled for a pause and stepped out with the phone. After he departed, his gentle voice could still be faintly heard, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor.

Everyone speculated about the caller who could elicit such a soft response from the CEO. Many guessed it was the CEO’s rumored fiancée.

The CEO’s engagement was common knowledge, but not everyone qualified for the engagement ceremony. Although the CEO’s fiancée had visited the company numerous times, she always entered the CEO’s office via a private elevator, limiting sightings of her.

Nevertheless, rumors circulated that the CEO doted on his fiancée, showing a softer side only in her presence.

Unaware of the speculation in the conference room, Huangfu Ruiling answered the call. Before Ye Leng’an could speak, Huangfu Ruiling’s gentle voice asked, “Are you out of seclusion?”

“Yes, I am!” Ye Leng’an exclaimed excitedly, proceeding to recount her breakthrough in the past few days.

Hearing her clear voice, Huangfu Ruiling’s gentle expression deepened. Without interruption, he listened attentively.

When Ye Leng’an finished, he spoke slowly, “It seems like these three days have yielded significant gains!”

“Indeed.” Ye Leng’an’s voice brimmed with excitement. “At this rate, I might soon return to my peak cultivation.”

“That’s wonderful.” Huangfu Ruiling’s tone dripped with indulgence. “Since you’re out of seclusion, shall we have lunch together?”

Upon hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s invitation, a hint of guilt flickered across Ye Leng’an’s face. After a chuckle, she replied, “Today might not be convenient. I plan to return to the Hidden World later.

Huangfu Ruiling furrowed his brows. “Are you in such a rush?”

Though he didn’t object, he couldn’t see the need for haste. It had been three days since they last met, and he wished to catch up with her.

“Isn’t it better to resolve matters promptly?” A cold glint flashed in Ye Leng’an’s eyes. “If I delay, the Ye family might assume I’m tacitly agreeing to their terms. I can’t let them take advantage of every opportunity!”

Understanding Ye Leng’an’s decision, Huangfu Ruiling felt a tinge of disappointment but said, “Alright, go and return early. If we can’t have lunch together, we can still have dinner, can’t we?”
