"My dear, how have you been? Sorry, I took so long to get out of seclusion!"

Xiao Fei'er hugged Wang Yue and lifted her high in the air. Wang Yue had a wide smile on her face which was even wider when she was together with Wang Ling.

Circling the Wang Family Main House, the mother and daughter pair settled down after some laughs. The people of the Main House showed a smile when they saw this sight.

Xia Fei'er carefully placed Wang Yue to the ground and noticed something peculiar.

"Oh my, you can cultivate now? Oh, you've already even reach sky root stage. Yue'er is a genius, Butler Sun, can you see her brilliance? Soon, you'll be one of the Family's greatest genius next to your older brother Wang Hong. When did such a joyous thing happen?"

Wang Yue giggled and scratched the back of her as she explained, "It was because of older brother Wang Ling. He was the one who fixed my body with some medicine bath and gave me almost half of his bloodline."

Xiao Fei'er who was listening stiffened and with a quivering voice, she asked, "Wang Ling? Do you mean your older brother? Do you mean he has awakened already? Where is he then? I want to hear my son's voice."

Xiao Fei'er's frantic voice and a request was heard. She had been away for more than four years because of her seclusion. Because of that, she had missed many things, especially the time when her firstborn son gained awareness.

For years, the family she built with her husband had always been both happy joyous and successful. But two things haunted her.

The fact that her daughter could not cultivate had always made her worry about her future.

But at least Wang Yue had a mind of her own. Wang Ling, on the other hand, had no awareness and he could not cultivate.

He was a doll that could not move without the help of others. How many times had she wished to take his place? How many times had she scoured the lands searching for artifacts that can help him?

Xiao Fei'er had never heard Wang Ling's voice, and now that she had learned of his awakening. She began to yearn for her child.

Turning to Butler Sun, Xiao Fei'er demanded an answer. She did not speak, but Butler Sun already knew where she wanted to go.

"Mistress, before you make a move and leave. Please listen to my words." Taking a deep breath, Butler Sun continued, "The First Young Master is in an academy. If someone of your strength were to leave the Frost Domain for another Domain, conflict may arise and…"

"What is wrong with that? Our Wang Family is not afraid of conflict and those people will sooner or later know I am out, me running to fetch my son will pose no significant change to our current situation. Also, even if they know, if they make a fuss over me meeting my son, I'll just make them disappear. We'll eventually have to make them go away anyway."

Butler Sun saw the contrast of Xiao Fei'er's words and expression. He believed that she was not kidding one bit.

He remembered what kind of clan she was originally a part of and sighed.

"Alright, but please let us first send a letter…"

"Denied, a courier is slow, I do not want to wait for two weeks. I can travel anywhere in the realm in mere days. I do not want to waste my time waiting for a response. Sun Wu, my patience is beginning to thin, you best say where Ling'er is before I go to every academy and knock on their doors."

Butler Sun felt helpless in front of Xiao Fei'er, "Alright, I shall say it, but please don't pick any fight on your way out. The First Young Master has his own plans and if we fight now, we will be angry."

"Bah, he's my son, don't worry about him getting angry. I'll spank him if he gets angry."

"He's in the Thundergod Academy if the Mistress sees someone with a handsome face resembling the Second Young Master, with a fox hanging by his shoulders like a scarf, then that would be him."

"See, that wasn't so hard." Xiao Fei'er smiled and then turned to Wang Yue, "Yue'er, do you want to go with me? I'll be visiting your brothers."

Wang Yue readily agreed as she took her mother's hands.

Xiao Fei'er was just about to speed away, but she turned and asked Butler Sun, "Oh, I almost forgot, where is Hong'er? I also want to see him, I'm going to be taking them to the Xiao Clan after I pick them up."

Butler Sun already knew that Xiao Fei'er is not going to accept any more no so he just said what he needed to say, "He's currently at the Water Domain, it seems like the Princess of the [Tranquil Empire] is sick and he went to see if he can do anything for his friend."

Xiao Fei'er smiled and thanked Butler Sun before speeding away. She disappeared from the eyes of everyone a split second later.

Butler Sun turned to Qimi and said, "Send letters to the [Information Division], quickly gather Intel on every movement of the [Xie Clan], [Beast Legion Sect], [Wei Clan], and the [Desolate Clan]. Those bastards will surely move once they learn the Mistress has transcended celestial phase."

Qimi hesitated as she questioned, "Will these sects really move just because the Mistress came out of seclusion?"

Butler Sun walked away and beckoned Qimi to follow him and once they were away from the crowd, he answered, "You are one of the three last disciples I took under my wing so you may not know of this. But when the Master (Wang Shu Qing), defeated me and spared my life even after pleading him to end my life and he said that it would be wrong to kill such a pitiful man like myself.

"I decided to follow him after some talking and some attempted assassination with the Shadow Pavilion to see through his ambitions. With the Shadow Pavilion joining his side, it resulted in the world to be cautious of Master, and the only reason why they never killed him, was mostly because of the Mistress' Clan."

Qimi became even more confused, "I have heard the story from Eldest Martial Brother Qiyu a thousand times already when we drink. But I still don't see any significance to what it had to do with the other factions making a move against us."

Butler Sun turned to the skies and said, "The Wang Family is an anomaly that gathers the ruffians and the rogues who have nothing and has no place in the realm. Nameless Masters that is outcast to the society gathers under the banner of the Wang Family. The Master even spends a lot of resources searching for the geniuses who have no chance to rise because of their different situations.

"These outcasts who was first seen as a scourge in the martial world was treated by the Master with respect and in turn, they decided to follow him. It was the same for me and now I am the spearhead that charges first when the Master declares he wants to go to war.

"But exactly because we are an anomaly that the factions of the world see us as a torn. Many want to destroy us but with the backing of the Mistress' Clan, we were able to survive this long. But years ago, a deal was created, once one of the two masters transcends celestial phase, the Xiao Clan must not intervene too much else there would be war. So with that deal, conflicts will soon arise and it will be inevitable that this would blow up so much that the realm will be torn apart."

Qimi became speechless. Four of the strongest factions in the whole realm was threatening the existence of the Wang Family. She gulped down saliva and thought that they are doom.

But Butler Sun's voice echoed in her ears.

"Now, there are three paths our Wang Family may take. First would be annihilation, second would be a coexisting with the rest and the last one would be… dominating the realm."

Qimi was at a loss for word as she questioned with a quivering voice, "C-can we achieve the last one?"

Butler Sun only smiled at her as he thought to himself.

[If the First Young Master truly has his plan work out then….. the whole realm will be under us sooner or later.

Well, the Mistress will sooner or later see the prowess of the First Young Master. She's far wiser than anyone in the family, if anyone could see through the mysterious First Young Master, then it would be the Mistress.

The Wang Family is hanging by a single thread. One wrong move and it will snap. Only the Main Family can reinforce that thread…

So far, everything is moving just like the First Young Master dictated. If everything continues and nothing major happens, the conflict will happen shortly. We have to build our forces before then… First Young Master, please be well.]
