Yohan decides to visit the Feng clan territory and plans to meet with the Lin clan branch family heads. Facing internal clan politics and opposition from elders, he seeks advice from Athena. Athena proposes a radical plan to weed out opposition and rebuild the clan, suggesting Yohan utilize his talented female companions for leadership roles. Yohan agrees, delegating the recruitment of new talent to Athena in exchange for her help, and they engage in dual cultivation.

"These infernal, conniving women... I'll surely make them pay once I break free from this accursed chains!" Amelia declared, retracting her spiritual senses. The mere thought of Yohan being with Athena ignited a furious rage within her, yet, the young girl managed to let out a defeated sigh. Tilting her head, her gaze shifted towards the window of her chamber, where the silhouette of a stunning woman, enveloped in an ethereal aura, stood poised.

"Two years have passed, have they not..." Amelia murmured, her eyes fixed on the woman, who appeared to be in her late twenties. Her otherworldly beauty was undeniable, her crimson eyes locked onto Amelia with an intense gaze.

"Indeed, two years have gone by since he shattered the seal..." the enigmatic woman responded, her expression grave. Amelia fell silent, recalling the incident when Yohan, quite unintentionally, broke the seal of a hidden village amidst heavenly tribulations. The entire settlement had been concealed and bound by an intricate formation; it was destiny, undeniably, that had woven their paths together.

Contemplating the gentle manner in which he had cared for her and taken her under his wing caused Amelia's face to flush, though the woman within her room remained impassive.

"If he possesses the ability to break that seal, then it is conceivable he might also possess the potential to liberate you from your own curse. How much longer must we endure this waiting?" the woman finally inquired, her voice laden with a profound weariness.

Amelia fell silent once more, then finally rose to her feet, approaching the mysterious woman in her chamber.

"How can I possibly reveal my true identity to him? I wonder how he will react upon learning of my origins... you see, I find myself intimidated by the prospect of facing him!" Amelia confessed, gazing out the window, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the woman.

The woman beside her betrayed a flicker of exasperation. Her gaze settled upon the young girl, who barely reached her waist.

"Elder sister... you harbor feelings for him, do you not?" the woman finally uttered, her eyes fixed on Amelia. At these words, Amelia's cheeks deepened in color, and her heart began to pound with accelerating fervor. She immediately turned to the mysterious woman, a peculiar smile gracing her lips.

"What are you implying, Yuna..." Amelia managed, her voice trembling. The woman, identified as Yuna, let out a prolonged sigh, observing Amelia's flustered demeanor. It was abundantly clear; Amelia had irrevocably fallen for Yohan from their very first encounter. At that time, his strength was modest, his cultivation merely average, yet in the span of just two years, he had ascended to the Heavenly Soul Realm.

"Is he not utterly incredible? Initially, I attributed it to mere chance, but it soon became apparent that he is destined to command this entire world," Amelia proclaimed, her eyes ablaze with brilliance. Yuna simply stroked her chin, witnessing the sheer excitement radiating from Amelia, as though she fervently wished for him to conquer the world.

"Indeed, he is a man of extraordinary caliber. I have never encountered anyone quite like him; his destiny is undeniably intertwined with achieving monumental feats," Yuna remarked, gently taking Amelia's hand in hers. For the first time, a smile adorned her features.

Amelia returned Yuna's smile, responding, "I am eternally indebted to him. Currently, my cultivation is constrained to the late Earth Realm due to this curse..."

Yuna regarded Amelia with an earnest intensity, as if anticipating the completion of her thoughts. Noticing Yuna's penetrating gaze, Amelia drew a deep breath.

"The conflict in this land is poised to erupt imminently. When that time arrives, I implore you to lend him your support. I wish for you to safeguard him, even with those bothersome women lingering by his side. The very will of this realm has recognized the emerging anomaly; challenges are inevitably going to escalate. The most formidable individuals have already begun to reveal themselves, drawn by his presence. Regardless of his growing prowess and might, he cannot possibly face them all alone. I desire for you to become his bulwark, my younger sister."

Yuna became contemplative upon hearing Amelia's earnest plea. The profound concern etched on Amelia's face was unmistakable.

"Very well, I shall exert every effort to ensure his safety... after all, he remains somewhat vulnerable," she whispered, and in the ensuing moment, her form dissolved from the chamber.

Moments later, the chamber door was suddenly pushed open. A figure clad in maid attire entered, bearing a tray laden with refreshments. A smile graced her features as she observed Amelia, who stood by the window. The maid carefully set the tray upon a nearby table.

"I have brought some refreshments for you, young lady," the maid chirped cheerfully. Amelia smiled, and in the next instant, she darted towards the maid, leaping into her embrace as if unaffected by their preceding conversation. The maid effortlessly lifted the small girl, holding her close. Aside from Ana, this particular maid had been tending to Amelia's needs for the past two years.

​Simultaneously, Yohan finally emerged from Athena’s chamber. The instant he stepped out, the protective barriers surrounding her room dissipated. Exhausted from their strenuous dual cultivation, Athena had fallen into a deep sleep, too weak to move. Yohan had spent the entire day engaged in dual cultivation with her.

​He felt utterly satisfied; after all, it had been entirely worth the effort. The two of them had shared a wonderful time, indulging their hearts' desires. Furthermore, Athena had consented to aid him in identifying and recruiting talented individuals for their clan. In addition to this, she would also be responsible for assigning specific roles to his partners.

​"Yohan..." A familiar voice reached his ears, pulling him away from his profound contemplation. He casually turned his head, only to discover several individuals standing there, gazing at him.

​"What are you all doing here..." Yohan nervously swallowed, spotting Jasmine, Neena, Aana, and Kana. While two of them appeared somewhat irritated, Jasmine maintained a calm and composed demeanor. Neena, too, wore a slightly displeased expression.

​"What do you mean, what are we doing here? We've been waiting right outside this infernal room all day!" Aana exclaimed, playfully poking his cheek. Jasmine offered a bittersweet smile upon hearing Aana's outburst. Yohan, meanwhile, sheepishly scratched the back of his head, realizing he had been caught.

​Yohan found himself at a loss for words. At that moment, Jasmine gracefully approached him, taking his hand in hers with a radiant smile.

 "Why don't we have some evening tea together?" she proposed, much to everyone's astonishment, including Yohan's. Aana visibly frowned at Jasmine's suggestion. Neena and Kana exchanged glances; after all, this was a significant deviation from their initial plans once Yohan had left Athena’s room.

 "Yes... let's definitely have some tea together!" Yohan readily agreed, gently clasping Jasmine’s hand in his. He then turned his gaze towards Aana, a similar smile gracing his lips. Aana's cheeks flushed upon witnessing Yohan's warm expression. She had initially intended to feign anger at him for focusing all his attention on Athena, but he was, undeniably, her Achilles' heel. She knew she couldn't remain upset with him. Without hesitation, she moved to Yohan's side, looping her arm through his, surprising everyone once more.

 "Indeed, we absolutely should have tea together..." Aana declared, resting her head against his shoulder, a stark contrast to her earlier pronouncements. Kana sighed in resignation, observing her younger sister's behavior. Neena's eyebrows twitched irritably as she witnessed Jasmine and Aana flanking Yohan; she felt utterly betrayed.
