Female celebrities, six to eight at a time, Ye Fan also pondered a question: aren't these celebrities afraid of revealing their secrets? Such matters, once leaked, would utterly destroy their reputation.

But then he remembered the vast influence of the Han Group, which must have developed connections from the media to entertainment companies, and even to the celebrities' agencies. Whatever the Han Group asked these stars to do, these women wouldn't dare to act rashly, or they might suddenly disappear from the world, or lose their status in the entertainment industry due to scandals.

Ye Fan didn't dwell on it much, and directly returned to the villa.

Wu Ding held the freshly received message from Elder Wu's jade talisman and said, "Junior Brother, Senior Brother just returned from the secret realm and is preparing to return to Hua Hai City. He said he has specific matters he wants to discuss with us in person. Are you going back?"

Ye Fan asked, "What's Senior Sister's opinion?"

"Don't ask me, I'm also uncertain now. The Tianxuan Sect suddenly got tangled with the people from the Earth Origin Sect, just worried that Senior Brother might bring someone else back from the sect who could harm us, which would be dangerous." Wu Ding expressed his concern.

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "If the sect intended to harm me, they shouldn't have let us descend from Shuangfeng Mountain. Let's go to Hua Hai City, leave Zhao Jun and the others behind, just you and I will return."

After nearly a day of recovery, Li Zhaojun and Min Shang emerged from their rooms, their spiritual energy having grown.

Li Zhaojun said, "Ye Fan, it'd be better if Shang and I go with you. With the three of us working together, it's better than you battling alone."

"Yes, Junior Brother, you've reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, but now Yun Zhao and Min Shang are only at the Nascent Soul Stage. Leaving them here might be dangerous, how could you bear to leave them waiting?" Wu Ding asked, seemingly reminding Ye Fan that he should bring them along.

Ye Fan laughed and said, "Isn't Lan Jing here as well?"

Lan Jing's strength far surpassed Ye Fan's, so he felt at ease leaving Li Zhaojun and Min Shang in Ninghai City.

"Never mind, Junior Brother, do as you wish now. After dusk, we'll return to Hua Hai City. By then, Senior Brother Qing Wu should have arrived. If he wants to take you back to the secret realm, absolutely refuse!" Wu Ding advised.

Ye Fan nodded, he himself didn't want to return to the secret realm. His copper mirror within had already merged into one, the next step was to find Lan Jing's mother. According to what the mysterious woman said, Lan Jing's mother was one of the mighty ones. To truly combat the great catastrophe, he needed to find the scattered mighty ones.

Unfortunately, Ye Fan was not the chosen one; he could only do as much as he could.

...

...

Ye Fan returned to Hua Hai City with just Wu Ding, leaving even Qing Xu in Ninghai City.

The little girl became obsessed with racing, so Ye Fan let her play with virtual racing games. At this moment, Qing Xu seemed to have found her lost childhood, enjoying herself so much that she even forgot about her Senior Brother.

When they arrived in Hua Hai City, Elder Wu hadn't returned to the hotel yet, so Ye Fan used an excuse to meet someone, intending to visit Lu Xiaoman.

Even if Wu Ding knew, he didn't expose him and just advised Ye Fan to be quick.

At Lu Xiaoman's house, Lu Xiaoman personally cooked a table full of delicacies for Ye Fan, while Mo Xiaoyan next to them was drooling: "Brother-in-law, if only you could come daily, sister has been so absent-minded lately, you all won't let me out, and I'm stuck eating takeout and junk food at home. I'm almost getting fat."

Lu Xiaoman wearing an apron emerged holding a dish and said, "Complaining about bad food but worried about getting fat? I think you're just picky."

"Hey, sister, if brother-in-law weren't here for dinner tonight, I bet you wouldn't even care about the food in the fridge! You say I'm picky, but if there's nothing to choose from, how can I be picky?" Mo Xiaoyan protested in annoyance.

Actually, her biggest grievance was that Ye Fan came to see Lu Xiaoman and somewhat ignored her.

Ye Fan laughed and said, "Xiaoman, four dishes are enough. After dinner, I might leave, so don't keep yourself too busy."

Lu Xiaoman looked a bit saddened and said, "You've barely been here and now you want to leave?"

Ye Fan stood up, wrapped his arm around Lu Xiaoman's slender waist, and kissed her passionately, saying, "You know I've been busy lately. Rest assured, I'll come to visit whenever I have time."

"Okay." Lu Xiaoman pouted slightly but nodded obediently.

Mo Xiaoyan covered her ears, saying, "I don't want to hear you two talking love, let's eat, I'm starving!"

"You, always making a fuss, come help bring the dishes." Saying that, Lu Xiaoman turned towards the kitchen, and just as she did, Mo Xiaoyan suddenly jumped up, hugged Ye Fan, and kissed him fiercely.

Mo Xiaoyan was obviously jealous of Ye Fan kissing her sister and ignoring her, so she used this "sneaky" way to retaliate against her sister.

"No manners," Ye Fan said moodily after kissing Mo Xiaoyan for a while.

"Isn't it because of you?" Mo Xiaoyan pinched Ye Fan's waist angrily, "Next time you come, you better kiss me properly once. Better let sister see it, so she knows you care about me too."

Ye Fan replied annoyed, "Young lady, don't watch those soap operas, they'll corrupt you."

"Who's the young lady? I was born on the same day as sister, okay? Why can sister be with you like that, while I can only sneak a kiss? It's biased!" Mo Xiaoyan crossed her arms defiantly.

Ye Fan said, "Because she's your sister and my wife, and you're just my little sister-in-law. It's that simple!"

"Pfft."

Mo Xiaoyan stuck her tongue out playfully, seemingly sulking, and ignored Ye Fan throughout dinner.

Originally, she thought Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman would retreat to their room post-dinner, feeling smug: "Luckily I prepared a pinhole camera inside, you always hide from me, but now I can watch you. Haha."

Unexpectedly, Ye Fan left right after dinner with no intention of going to the room with Lu Xiaoman, and Lu Xiaoman didn't mention it either.

Mo Xiaoyan felt urgency and said to Lu Xiaoman, "Sister, look, brother-in-law rarely comes by, why not go inside to savor the time together?"

Lu Xiaoman blushed, glanced at Ye Fan, and upon meeting his gaze, felt even more embarrassed, pushing her sister aside: "It's none of your business what we do, huh?"

"Hey!" Mo Xiaoyan got angry again.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan laughed heartily, "Little girl, must I be intimate with your sister in the room? Occasionally, we can switch places... Want to spy on us?"

Mo Xiaoyan was initially stunned but then remembered that earlier Ye Fan helped Lu Xiaoman with washing vegetables in the kitchen while she privately installed the pinhole camera in Lu Xiaoman's room. She grumbled, "You in the kitchen... Aye, sister and brother-in-law, you have no shame doing those things... You two irritate me to death."

"You're the one irritating!" Lu Xiaoman revealed a small device, and Mo Xiaoyan's face turned red instantly.

It was the pinhole camera she just installed.
