Although the brush handle was made of wood, Wang Ying clearly saw that Wang Xiao didn't touch it at all.

Separated by about ten centimeters, he cut it off merely with a Qi palm.

This was absolutely a skill that only a master in the Innate Realm could possess.

A Half-step Master!

Wang Ying was incredibly excited, completely unexpected that his grandfather, nearly a hundred years old, could still make a breakthrough.

This was absolutely a revolutionary value for the Jinling Prince Mansion.

Wang Xiao, however, did not seem as excited as Wang Ying, and let out a long sigh: "Xiao Ying, although I haven't reached the Innate Realm, I have already touched its threshold. In the past, I didn't even dare to dream about such a realm, but do you know why this happened?"

"Why?" Wang Ying impulsively asked, and a roguish face inexplicably popped into his mind.

Could it be him?

If it really was him, it would be terrifying.

Being able to bring someone into the Innate Realm, spreading such news would probably cause a stir in the Martial Arts World, wouldn't it?

Wang Xiao didn't care about Wang Ying's thoughts, sighing: "Xiao Ying, you know I nearly died twice. If not for Doctor Ye, this old life of mine would already be buried, and our Wang Family would probably cease to exist. But even that wasn't enough for me to value Ye Guichen."

Pausing, Wang Xiao then said seriously: "What amazes me the most is that Ye Guichen's methods far exceed our imagination. You may have guessed, though I had profound energy in my body, I couldn't use it for myself. But now, though I can't yet wield it freely, I believe it won't be long before I truly enter the Innate Realm, becoming a Half-step Master standing on the mountaintop. All of this is because of Ye Guichen's unimaginable methods!"

"Was it really him?" Although Wang Ying was mentally prepared, he was still shocked to hear it from Wang Xiao's own mouth: "How is this possible! If such methods existed in this world, wouldn't Innate Masters be as common as cattle?"

Wang Xiao shook his head: "It's not that simple. If it were, Innate Masters would have no value. However, it seems that only Doctor Ye could achieve this, and though I was unconscious at the time, I was still aware and clearly remember what happened. To create an Innate Master, simply knowing the method isn't enough. The complexity is something I can't explain in a short time, but I am sure of one thing: whether it's in medicine, martial arts, or mental fortitude, Doctor Ye is rare in the world. Such a person is no longer simply a genius; calling him a prodigy is no exaggeration."

Here, Wang Xiao looked at Wang Ying with fervent eyes: "Xiao Ying, I know Doctor Ye already has a fiancée, but excellent men in the world are as rare as phoenix feathers. To marry such a man would be a great honor for yourself and the family. And while I don't know how you feel about Doctor Ye, Grandpa wants to tell you sincerely: no matter what, even if you have to use every trick in the book to win Doctor Ye over, it would be no shame. Missing out on such a man could be a lifetime of regret!"

Wang Ying's mouth hung open, struggling to grasp Wang Xiao's meaning.

Seconds later, Wang Ying's face turned red, and he lowered his head, pouting: "Grandpa, what are you saying? Since you know he has a fiancée, how can you want me to take him from her? What would that make me?"

Ignoring Wang Ying's shyness, Wang Xiao said seriously: "Xiao Ying, you're still young and don't understand a lot of things. As for Doctor Ye, many might not yet realize his worth. Once they do, not to mention wanting him as a son-in-law, people would fight to be with him, even without a title. Grandpa isn't joking; no matter the cost, you must establish a good relationship with Doctor Ye. Even if you can't become family, you must be friends. Such people, once enemies, are devastating. If you don't know what to do, just stand by Doctor Ye's side and oppose anyone who challenges him!"

Wang Ying raised her head again, rare to see Wang Xiao speak so much, and his praise for Ye Guichen was sky-high.

After a long time, Wang Ying finally nodded, pursed her lips, and said: "Grandpa, I understand."

Seeing Wang Ying did not object, Wang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright, go accompany your aunt."

"What's wrong with Aunt?" Wang Ying was a bit confused.

Wang Xiao sighed: "Ruolan came to see me today. Our Wang Family has gone through this calamity, and she has realized a lot of things. So, she wants to go to Song Mountain and become a nun. I did not object, considering it is a good thing for her. She should leave tomorrow."

"Ah? Aunt is going to become a nun?" Wang Ying covered her mouth.

Wang Ying had a good relationship with Wang Ruolan since childhood.

As a child, he didn't understand why Wang Ruolan never married, but as he grew up, he realized Wang Ruolan's infatuation with his father.

Although they didn't break the bounds of ethics, Wang Ying understood Wang Ruolan's suffering, and it didn't affect their relationship. Still, hearing that Wang Ruolan was going to become a nun was hard for him to accept.

"I understand, Grandpa, you rest early." Knowing Wang Ruolan's temperament, Wang Ying knew persuasion would be futile. He stood up, bid Wang Xiao farewell, and went to Wang Ruolan's door, knocking softly.

When Wang Ruolan opened the door, she was only wearing a thin nightgown.

Her face was without makeup, and she seemed to have aged significantly.

There were also signs of fatigue she couldn't hide.

"Aunt." Seeing Wang Ruolan's appearance, Wang Ying's heart tightened, and he leaped into her arms.

Wang Ruolan held Wang Ying without saying anything, gently patting him.

After a long time, she finally pushed Wang Ying away, wiping the tears from his eyes. She forced a smile: "Xiao Ying, nothing to cry about. Aunt has lived more than half her life, seen and understood a lot. When your mother married into the Wang Family, I made things difficult for her constantly. But your father loved her deeply, though she was a woman of misfortune who died in childbirth when you were born."

"Looking back, I was so foolish then. Your father never remarried for decades. I know he never forgot her. Sometimes I envied your mother for the love your father had for her."

"But now, it's all in the past. I'll be leaving for Song Mountain tomorrow and won't be back for a while. Before I go, Aunt wants to tell you that if you ever fall for a man, as long as it's within ethical bounds, go after him. Don't give up easily, or you'll regret it for a lifetime."

Wang Ying suddenly didn't know how to respond, tears streaming down his face.

He nodded fiercely, choking: "Aunt, I understand. I'll visit you whenever I can!"

For the Wang Family, perhaps this night was destined to be sleepless.
