Special Agent’s Rebirth: The Almighty Goddess of Quick Transmigration - Chapter 324

This was the voice of the Bai Family’s Second Young Master.

Hearing this voice, the people in the hall fell into an odd silence.

Old Master Bai looked at his second son, whose expression was full of desperate longing, and then turned to Ye Shaohua. “Miss Ye, how about this? If you can save my second son, I am willing to offer an additional ten mid-grade spirit stones.”

The Second Wife also spoke up now, staring intently at Ye Shaohua. “I can even get you into the Profound Sky Sect! If only you will save my son!”

Ye Shaohua didn’t answer them immediately. Instead, she looked thoughtfully at Master Murong. “Alright. But it’s not convenient for me right now. After I finish my business at the Liu family, I will return to formally acknowledge you as my master.”

Only after saying this did she turn her gaze to the Second Wife. “Second Wife, is your memory that short? Unless you’ve already forgotten, you did say you wouldn’t beg me even in your next life.”

The Second Wife’s face instantly paled.

But Ye Shaohua didn’t even spare her another glance, turning directly to leave the Bai residence.

Old Master Bai arranged for a spirit beast carriage to take her to the Liu family.

Shortly after Ye Shaohua left, remembering that she had mentioned the Liu family brought her to the city, Old Master Bai suddenly thought of something. “Send a few men to the Liu family.”

A well-trained team set off with Steward Bai, bringing gifts.

**

When Ye Shaohua arrived at the Liu residence, the guard at the gate still recognized her.

However, the guard’s attitude was utterly dismissive. He gave her a lazy glance. “Oh, it’s you. If you want to see the Master, wait here. I’ll go and announce you.”

He said he was going to announce her, but ten minutes passed with no sign of his return. Ye Shaohua frowned. Just as she was about to lose patience and drag him out for a beating, the guard finally reappeared, looking at her with disdain. “Go on in.”

Seeing Ye Shaohua’s impassive expression, the guard couldn’t help but sneer.

Previously, he knew Ye Shaohua had the best talent among that group and might potentially become an Immortal Master, so he had treated her very well. Now, she was just someone with an Earth-grade soul talent.

Unable to become an Immortal Master, she was, in the end, still just a lowly commoner.

Why should he give her a pleasant look?

The original host had experienced this stark contrast in her previous life, and it had been a heavy blow to her. However, Ye Shaohua felt nothing of the sort. She simply walked in, step by step.

She had told the guard she wanted to thank Old Master Liu, but upon entering, she didn’t see him. Instead, she encountered the Liu Family’s Eldest Young Lady.

“Is Shaohua really here?” Liu Yuan looked towards the main gate.

Seeing her brother’s expression, the Eldest Young Lady’s face instantly turned cold. “Yes, but she’ll be leaving soon, returning to where the lowly commoners belong. You better put away any thoughts you have.”

Hearing his sister’s words, Liu Yuan’s face fell with disappointment.

Seeing her brother’s reaction, the Eldest Young Lady’s dislike for Ye Shaohua intensified.

Ever since Steward Liu brought Ye Shaohua back, claiming she had high potential to become an Immortal Master, Ye Shaohua—despite her lowly origins—had enjoyed a surprisingly high status within the Liu family.

Liu Yuan had been tested last year and only possessed an ordinary soul talent.

After learning of Ye Shaohua’s high talent, Old Master Liu had specifically encouraged Liu Yuan to build a relationship with her.

The result was that this lowly commoner, Ye Shaohua, was treated with more respect by the guards than she, the actual Eldest Young Lady, was!

Just remembering Ye Shaohua’s formerly haughty attitude made the Eldest Young Lady seethe with irritation.

But now, things were different. Ye Shaohua had failed to manifest any significant talent and couldn’t become an Immortal Master.

Old Master Liu was furious, thinking it would have been better to have Liu Yuan spend time with Fu Xue instead.

Now, Fu Xue and Yue Qingning were soaring to great heights, but they weren’t particularly close to the Liu family.

The letters the Liu family sent to the two at the Profound Sky Sect had gone unanswered.

This infuriated Old Master Liu and the rest of the family, and their anger was inadvertently redirected towards Ye Shaohua.

While the others who weren’t chosen could still stay and work for the Liu family, Ye Shaohua was directly driven out.

Thinking of this, the Eldest Young Lady couldn’t suppress a scornful smile.

Seeing the brother and sister pair, Ye Shaohua asked, “Where are the Master and Steward Liu?”

Hearing this, the Eldest Young Lady’s lips curled mockingly.

Liu Yuan, upon seeing Ye Shaohua, instinctively blurted out, “My father said he won’t see you. He told me to give you this contract…”

“Contract?” Ye Shaohua narrowed her eyes.

Realizing he had misspoken, Liu Yuan immediately covered his mouth. “N-No… that’s not… My father isn’t home right now, Shaohua, you shouldn’t…”

“Enough, why are you still talking to her?” the Eldest Young Lady snorted coldly. She shot Liu Yuan a glare, then snatched the contract paper from his hand and threw it at Ye Shaohua. “This contract is void now. Don’t think about clinging to our Liu family any longer. Consider this compensation for you falling off the cliff—we’ll waive the cost of you freeloading here for the past few months. Take the contract and get lost! And don’t use the main gate; use the back gate. Save us the embarrassment!”

An Immortal Master? You couldn’t become one even in your next life!

Ye Shaohua understood now. She had originally intended to express her gratitude to Old Master Liu in person, but since he refused to see her, so be it.

She lowered her gaze, looking at the contract paper in her hand.

Then, indifferently, she folded the paper neatly, tucked it away, gave Liu Yuan a slight nod, turned, and walked directly towards the main gate.

At that moment, Old Master Liu hurried over from the inner courtyard. “You two, come with me to the main gate to receive our esteemed guests!” he said urgently to Liu Yuan and the Eldest Young Lady.

Hearing “esteemed guests,” both Liu Yuan and the Eldest Young Lady immediately became serious.

The group hurried towards the main gate. Old Master Liu completely failed to notice Ye Shaohua standing to the side.

Ye Shaohua followed behind the group and exited through the main gate, completely ignoring the Eldest Young Lady’s earlier instruction.

“Steward Bai, Captain Bai, to what do we owe the honor of your presence?” Old Master Liu greeted the two men with an extremely ingratiating smile.

The city wasn’t one of multiple powerful families balancing each other; the Bai family stood alone at the pinnacle.

Not only did they have elders within the Profound Sky Sect, but several Bai family members were also disciples of the Sect. This was something other families couldn’t hope to match, no matter how hard they tried. Old Master Liu had previously only dared to observe Steward Bai from a distance.

He never expected Steward Bai to visit in person this time.

“It must be because of Fu Xue and Brother Qingning,” the Eldest Young Lady whispered. “Both of them can become Immortal Masters now.”

Old Master Liu nodded; he thought it was probably the case.

Wearing a fawning expression, he said to Steward Bai, “Please, come inside. Both of you, please come inside.”

As he turned, he finally spotted Ye Shaohua coming out from inside. His face changed, and he said sharply, “Why is she here?! Quickly, take her away! Don’t let her offend our esteemed guests!”

The Eldest Young Lady’s face also darkened considerably.

Liu family guards immediately jogged over, intending to drag Ye Shaohua away.

However, at that moment, Steward Bai, who had previously worn a neutral expression, suddenly broke into a radiant, spring-blossom smile and walked directly towards Ye Shaohua. “Miss Ye! You’ve finally come out. Our spirit beast carriage is waiting right outside.”

Only after Ye Shaohua gave a slight, indifferent nod did Steward Bai turn back to Old Master Liu, his tone mild. “Old Master Liu, Miss Ye is a distinguished guest of our Bai residence. The alchemist at our estate is waiting to take her as his disciple. We will be taking Miss Ye back with us now.”
