Now that Ye You entered Yunxiao Sect, Ye Xun definitely could not compare against her. But for Ye Qingtang, even if Ye Qingtang's abilities were higher than hers, the improvement of abilities was highly limited since she lost her spirit root. On the other hand, Ye Xun had a perfect spirit root, and there were infinite possibilities for her growth in the future.
There was still a long road ahead.
Ye Xun was also very aware that Duan Tianrao placed an importance on the perfect condition of her spirit root.
However beautiful Ye Qingtang was, she was still half a handicap.
The Duan family would definitely not allow a girl without a spirit root to become the wife of the family master's successor.
At that thought, Ye Xun's gaze landed on Duan Tianrao, whose eyes were full of praise and warmth as he returned her gaze.
"Xun, you're already doing very well. From now on, I'll cultivate along with you and hope that we will improve together." Duan Tianrao smiled.
Ye Xun nodded obediently.
Just as everyone was in the middle of the celebration, the guards guarding outside the Ye residence's door entered hurriedly.
"Family Master and two Elders, the City Lord of Fallen Stars City, Lord Mu Su, is at the door."
Suddenly, silent gasps filled the originally bustling residence.
The City Lord of Fallen Stars City, Mu Su!
No one on earth was unaware of Mu Su's status.
Although Fallen Stars City was also a city, it was extremely powerful. Even the emperor had to give in to Mu Su when he sees him. Mu Su's ability was immeasurable, and he served the Temple of Antiquity. Nearly no one in Lin Town was lucky enough to meet such a reputable and powerful person.
However, who would have expected that Mu Su, a person who was beyond one's reach, would actually appear in Lin Town, and even on the Ye residence!
Everyone's eyes looked towards the Great Elder of the Ye family uniformly.
Today was the birthday of Great Elder Ye. With Mu Su's appearance at that moment, could it be that he was here to congratulate the Great Elder?
It was known that there was simply no one in Lin Town that could come into contact with a powerful person like Mu Su, and even Ye You, who was just accepted into Yunxiao Sect, barely had the qualifications.
"Grandfather, Lord Mu Su must've been specially invited by sister You to celebrate your birthday," Ye Xun said smilingly at the sight.
The Great Elder was also shocked by the news. When he felt everyone's envious gaze, he suddenly returned to his senses and said, "I've not heard little You mention this before."
"Sister You must've wanted to give you a surprise. In the entire Lin Town, who else other than sister You would have such prestige to successfully invite Lord Mu Su?" Ye Xun laughed.
After thinking it over, the Great Elder agreed that only his granddaughter had such prestige, and his smile deepened.
Mu Su's arrival did catch many by surprise.
Even Ye Ling and the Second Elder who had been watching on coldly were shocked by the news.
"Why would Lord Mu Su suddenly come to our Ye residence?" Ye Ling was quite startled.
The Second Elder, however, frowned and said, "I wonder. Although our Ye family is considered a great family clan in Lin town, but when compared to Fallen Stars City, there is no competition at all. It is indeed strange for the City Lord of Fallen Stars City to visit so suddenly."
"Could it be that he was invited by Ye You to congratulate the Great Elder on his birthday?" Ye Ling's expression turned serious.
"There is only this possibility."
Ye Qingtang ate her pastries as she looked at the solemn expression on both her father and the Second Elder, and could not help but laugh. "Father and Second Uncle, why do you two need to be so worried?"
