Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Two days later, the guards returned and reported the situation in the capital to Old Master Wang, who immediately became furious.

“What a disgrace! Allowing his son to engage in such business! This is utterly unethical. The Wang family has a tradition: we don’t engage in the flesh trade or involve ourselves in ruinous gambling. The main branch is making money from running a brothel, yet he dares to ask me for help.”

“You’re angry, but will you help or not?”

“No. He’s close to my second brother; let my second brother help him. Our family has faced a disaster this year, and we donated all our money to the commoners. We don’t have any silver left.”

Old Mistress Wang was pleased. She watched as Old Master Wang wrote a reply but didn’t include any silver notes and finally felt relieved.

After writing the letter, Old Master Wang still wasn’t at ease. He wrote another letter to Ru’er.

He asked her not to lend any money to the main branch.

Old Mistress Wang expressed her satisfaction. “This is what we should have done long ago. All these years, we gave everything to them first. They enjoyed the benefits before us. They even want their granddaughter to snatch our granddaughter’s marriage. You should know that we’ve split our family, so why should they get to choose the good stuff? We’ve spoiled them rotten.”

“Alright, I understand. I’m not that foolish, but they are still blood relatives. We can’t cut ties completely. Now, I want to make it a bit difficult for them so they understand that without us supporting them, they are nothing.”

“They were never anything to begin with. Your father and mother entrusted the ancestral heritage to them, but they haven’t accomplished anything significant with it.”

Old Mistress Wang complained about it to Qiao Mai. Qiao Mai thought, “I wondered why the assassins didn’t come. It seems that the leader of Mingyou Pavilion was scared off by the artillery.”

It was a relief. If he became mentally handicapped, no one would bother her, and she could live peacefully.

When there was nothing much going on at home or outside, she started farming in her space. She wanted to level up quickly so that the green worm would be of use.

She spent her days and nights planting trees in the space. Even when Yuan Jiaqi returned at the end of the month, she didn’t pay him any attention and continued working.

She found various excuses to stay indoors and continued planting within her space.

Finally, in mid-May, her space reached level seven.

Qiao Mai was overjoyed as she witnessed the transformation. The green worm had lied to her; it wasn’t a matter of planting 1.5 billion acres and then 2 billion acres for the upgrade. It looked at her with a human-like smile and began evolving into a pupa.

Just like the growth of plants, it was rapidly progressing. In no time, a head emerged from the pupal shell.

A bat?

The green worm turned its head to glare at her. “Who are you calling a bat!”

Then its sharp beak began to flatten and finally started to look somewhat cute.

To be honest, it resembled the elves in the pictures.

It took all night, but Qiao Mai sat there staring. The little guy finally broke free from the cocoon.

It fluttered its beautiful wings, with a human-like face, pointed ears, and delicate hands and feet. It wore a bellyband and looked incredibly adorable.

It stood on its discarded cocoon and bowed to Qiao Mai in a gentlemanly manner.

“Greeny pays respects to the master.”

“Humph, you’re ugly!”

Greeny immediately got defensive. “Master, can’t we talk nicely? If I’m ugly, what about you?”

“I’m a human. Among humans, I’m not considered ugly.”

“I’m an elf, and among elves, I’m perfect. Just look at my wings. How beautiful they are! My skin is flawless. Even among butterflies, you won’t find wings like mine.”

Once it finished boasting, it flaunted its wings before Qiao Mai. The wings were indeed beautiful, and Qiao Mai couldn’t help but wish she could have them for herself. She loved beautiful things.

“Hmph!”

“Master, don’t ‘huff.’ My wings can be lent to you, or rather, replicated for your use.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Mai became excited.

“How can you lend them to me?”

“I’m a space spirit. What’s the greatest advantage of our space?”

“Duplicating?”

“Yes. I can duplicate my wings and give them to you as a flying apparatus. As long as I’m in the space, you can use them to fly for as long as you want.”

“Wow, you’re finally a bit useful.”

Greeny rolled its eyes and said, “What do you mean by ‘a bit useful’? With me around, you can save energy and focus on cultivation.”

“Fine, you’re pretty and useful.” “Finally, you’re speaking sensibly!”

“You!”

“Master, I’m going to plant some trees now. Should I use the extra 2 billion acres for planting?”

“Sure, go ahead. Plant anything you want. Just make sure to expand the space area and upgrade it.”

“What about the sea? Marine life?”

“You can start by digging a big pit. Once I find the time, I’ll go to the seaside and collect some seawater.”

“Alright. Once you’re at the seaside, I’ll take care of the rest. If your space is not arranged properly, I’ll fix it all for you.”

“Okay, take your time.”

Watching it happily fly away and its discarded shell slowly disappearing, Qiao Mai finally breathed a sigh of relief. She wouldn’t have to farm herself anymore, which saved her a lot of effort. It was a great relief.

Otherwise, she had to deal with various matters outside during the day, and at night, she had to divide her time between farming and cultivation.

Now, she wouldn’t have to farm anymore. She was almost fed up with it.

She would feel dizzy when she saw trees and sick when she saw dirt.

At the end of May, she finally came out of the space. When she opened the door, she saw many people sitting in the courtyard, all wearing worried expressions as if they were waiting for her.

“What’s going on with all of you?”

Old Mistress Wang looked at her and sighed deeply.

“Child, Jiaqi has been persuaded to drop out of school by the academy.”

“Why?”

“It’s because of the incident where you chased your parents with a broom. He suffered as a result.”

Qiao Mai’s face darkened. “Where is he?” “Old Master Wang took him to the academy to discuss the matter.”

“Wait for me here. I’ll go to the academy.”

After speaking, Qiao Mai rushed towards the courtyard gate. As soon as she stepped outside, she summoned Dong Zao, mounted it, and headed toward the city.

At the academy’s entrance, Old Master Wang knocked on the gate with a stern expression.

“Go and call your headmaster out!”

The gatekeeper immediately saluted when he saw Old Master Wang.

“Greetings, sir!”

“Quickly!”

“Yes!”

Shortly after, the headmaster rushed out and respectfully greeted Old Master Wang.

“Greetings, Teacher.”

“Do you still have any respect for me?”

The headmaster glanced at Yuan Jiaqi. “Sir, I had no choice in the matter. How big can Wei City be? The incident of his wife assaulting the elderly spread like wildfire, and I heard it even caused illness. Our academy maintains strict discipline, and such incidents are not tolerated.”

“You went along with the crowd, don’t you? All these years of education are in vain. You believe rumors without verifying the facts!”

The headmaster hung his head in embarrassment, seemingly like a scolded child.

“Have you witnessed it yourself or experienced it firsthand?”

“You know there’s no smoke without fire.”

“Rubbish! I’ve been living in their house all this time; I understand this matter

the best. Those old guys not only deserved a beating but should also die. I

couldn’t help but want to give them a thrashing myself.”

“What’s the whole story?”

Old Master Wang explained the entire situation to the headmaster from start to finish.

“I see. Why didn’t you say so earlier, Jiaqi?”

“If I had, would anyone have believed me? You would have thought I was making excuses.”

The headmaster looked awkward. “In that case, how about this? I’ll bring you to explain the situation to everyone, and you can return to school tomorrow.”

“I only want to clear up this matter. As for returning to school, I’d rather not. I’ll study at home, especially with Old Master Wang here. There shouldn’t be any issues with the next year’s examinations.”

Wang Meng snorted coldly and was about to enter the academy with Yuan Jiaqi. Just then, Qiao Mai arrived.

“Grandfather, Jiaqi, wait a moment.”

She dismounted, handed Dong Zao over to the Wang family’s coachman, and followed the two into the academy.

The headmaster gathered all the students. During the journey, Old Master Wang had given Qiao Mai a general idea of the situation.

The students of Windforest Academy stood on the field. Qiao Mai stopped Yuan Jiaqi because this whole situation started because of her. She decided to speak up..
