This made Aunt Hong have no doubt about the rest.

Moreover, after finishing the documentation, the two of them whispered to each other for a while about what they had just investigated.

Yin Shen Palace had no choice but to follow closely behind Yan Beihan, advising quickly no matter who Yan Beihan went to see.

Say what should be said, but never say what shouldn’t...

Finally, it was evening.

After dinner, Yan Beihan returned to the room.

For Aunt Hong, it was the first time hearing so much information about the Night Demon.

"Aunt Hong, you see, the Night Demon I have my eyes on, you’ve learned a lot about them now."

Yan Beihan looked at her and said calmly: "Actually, many things heard today, I already knew before. Today is mainly for them to tell you, so you can evaluate."

Yan Beihan laughed: "You’ve always been unconvinced about my high regard for the Night Demon in your heart."

Aunt Hong, a bit embarrassed, said: "Miss indeed has sharp insight, after understanding so much, I feel it’s quite a pity not to recruit this Night Demon into our ranks."

Yan Beihan said faintly: "Actually, Grandpa Duan’s evaluation last time was enough. But today, you need to understand why Grandpa Duan said those words. So Aunt Hong..."

She looked up at Aunt Hong, saying: "I hope you will have more trust in me in the future. I can handle these matters well, and the people I value rarely turn out to be wrong. Since I’m going to take action, I need more autonomy. While you’ve been very kind to me, I can’t depend on grandpa’s approval for everything."

"This is very detrimental to my growth. It makes me feel as if I’m always a puppet under grandpa’s arrangement. No matter how much I accomplish, it’s always grandpa steering the ship. Even if I achieve it on my own, it’s still credited to grandpa. There’s no sense of achievement."

Aunt Hong felt somewhat ashamed.

Because that was exactly how she had been doing things.

"The reason for bringing you to learn about the Night Demon today, which seems unnecessary, is to tell you this."

Yan Beihan said heavily: "You must understand, if you continue this way, I will always just be Yan Nan’s granddaughter and not the true Yan Beihan. There won’t be an opportunity to grow into the real Yan Beihan."

Aunt Hong said solemnly: "I will remember this, when I get back, I will apply to Vice Sect Master Yan for your permissions."

"Thanks for your hard work, Aunt Hong."

Yan Beihan smiled.

The main reason she came here today, of course, was to hear people talk about the Night Demon, which she really, really wanted.

Now, especially after coming out of the Yin Yang Realm, she has even more of this impulse.

It feels like just hearing about his past makes her happy, like she has a sense of participation, that kind of girlish heart is hard to describe.

But the other half of the reason is to shock Aunt Hong while satisfying herself, to prove her ability to handle affairs, and thus apply for greater freedom of authority.

Because from Yan Nan’s side, if Yan Beihan tries to ask for authority herself, she absolutely won’t get it. No matter how she acts spoiled or cute, it’s to no avail.

But Aunt Hong can present a report showcasing Yan Beihan’s ability to ’stand alone’, thus allowing Yan Nan to grant Yan Beihan some freedom of authority.

This is a logic understood by all.

This trip was, in fact, the real preparation work before Yan Beihan set out to do things. Having secured Aunt Hong’s promise, she considered her objective achieved.

Next would be gaining Duan Xiyang’s acknowledgment. If Duan Xiyang could also say a word for her, it would carry much more weight than Aunt Hong.

But unfortunately, this is a very hard word to get.

Meanwhile, in Yin Shen Palace, they were in an urgent discussion with Mu Lin Yuan, Qian Sanjiang, and others.

"Lord Yan Beihan’s inquiry into the Night Demon, and gifting of Divine Attribute Metal and many resources to the Night Demon, it’s quite clear what they are doing."

"You didn’t accidentally leak anything, did you?"

Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang shook their heads in unison. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

The two were old foxes of the Jianghu, so experienced that dealing with such simple baiting words was definitely easy for them.

"Sect Hierarch, it seems the path for the Night Demon’s future can start being planned early."

Mu Lin Yuan was very relieved and satisfied.

"Yes."

Yin Shen Palace saw clearly in this regard: "Both Young Master Chen Yin and Lord Yan Beihan value him greatly, wanting to recruit him for their future team. At this time, before making any commitments, it’s when the Night Demon is safest."

"Once allegiance to one side is determined, the other becomes a deadly enemy. Because both have invested, but he only agreed to one."

"Yes."

"So the risk level for the Night Demon’s future will also increase."

"Now with Vice Sect Master Yan’s instruction, the Night Demon has at least three more years to develop." Yin Shen Palace’s gaze was worried.

"In other words, within these three years, the Night Demon must grow to my level, or even higher than mine! Only then will there be the slightest possibility to survive future crises."

Yin Shen Palace saw clearly, once Yan Beihan, Chen Yin, Feng Xing, Bai Ye, Chen Yun, Bi Feng, and all the younger generation start competing for power, and building teams for their future, the Wei Wo Zheng Sect will be full of stormy changes!

And by that time, it is absolutely impossible to remain unaffected. The Night Demon must find a side to depend on, to achieve merit by following the Dragon, to establish foundational careers.

But with increasing danger, the stronger the ability, the higher the martial power, the clearer the threat to opponents, the greater the danger!
