Ye Fan was instantly speechless. Scarlett was really overstepping her bounds!

However, Ye Fan still said, "Okay, I promise."

In truth, Ye Fan had no plans to have children. He would only consider it when he had the power and security to do so, and right now, he didn’t dare.

With that, Scarlett set out on her journey back to the Holy Court. This time, she would be leading a completely new Holy Court, and Ye Fan had high expectations for it, as long as it wasn’t as domineering as its predecessor.

Ye Fan returned to Heather.

Heather asked, "Did that Holy Court woman leave?"

"She’s gone!" Ye Fan replied quickly.

In reality, being caught between the Holy Court and the Vampire Clan was incredibly nerve-wracking. Fortunately, he had managed to handle the relationship between the two women. While it wasn’t exactly harmonious, it was manageable enough.

At that moment, Heather said, "My grandfather has already left the Vampire Clan!"

Ye Fan nodded. "Perhaps venturing into that other realm is his chance for a breakthrough. If he dares to step inside, he’ll either die or break through."

Heather nodded in agreement.

Then, she added, "Before my grandfather left, he wanted me to tell you something."

"What is it?" Ye Fan asked.

Heather said, "The Divine Land isn’t as simple as you think, and neither is the world. The Expulsion Plan must only be executed when you are absolutely certain of success!"

Hearing this from Heather, Ye Fan instantly grasped the meaning. It was just as he had expected. Thousands of years of civilization had undoubtedly produced many unrivaled Martial Artists. He was just a latecomer to the scene. Even though he had reached the pinnacle of the Secular World, some matters still required careful consideration before he could act.

Perhaps that was the real reason he had hesitated for so long...

Ye Fan and Heather spent a wonderful day together. The next morning, however, Mrs. Jiang and Su Qingxue arrived from Shangjing. They hadn’t come to cause trouble for Heather.

Ye Fan had no idea why his mother had suddenly shown up. Maybe his mother and his women would find some common ground. After all, the world of women was a mystery to him...

「Inside Su Qingxue’s villa in Jiangning.」

As soon as the two women entered, they saw Heather sitting on the couch.

Heather was the epitome of a classic Western beauty. The moment Su Qingxue saw her, she felt a pang of jealousy, but she knew she had to maintain her composure in front of her mother-in-law.

Mrs. Jiang, on the other hand, secretly praised her son’s excellent taste. Her son had now gathered beauties from both the East and the West. Mrs. Jiang felt his life was now complete, with the sole exception of him not having a child. However, the Old Master had declared that no one could constrain Ye Fan, regardless of his actions. This caused some resentment among the Ye Family members, but none of them dared to voice their complaints. After all, the Old Master’s status was incredibly high, and he was their absolute elder.

Ye Fan had just come down from upstairs. "Honey, Mom! What brings you two here?"

"You sly dog, hiding a beautiful woman in your love nest!" Mrs. Jiang teased him immediately.

Ye Fan laughed awkwardly, keeping a close eye on Su Qingxue the entire time. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she wasn’t about to lose her temper.

Perhaps Su Qingxue and Heather would get along well, just as Scarlett and Fang Nan did. Fang Nan and Su Qingxue didn’t click, and neither did Scarlett and Heather. These four women could easily form two opposing camps.

At first, Su Qingxue didn’t think much of the other woman. Soon, however, she discovered that Heather was a martial arts expert, and Heather had come to the same conclusion about her.

Their eyes met.

Aware of the etiquette in the Divine Land, Heather immediately stepped forward. "Hello, Auntie! Hello, Sister!"

"What a polite child. What’s your name?" Mrs. Jiang had a very good impression of Heather.

Heather replied, "Auntie, my name is Heather."

"A beautiful name. Is this your first time in the Divine Land?"

"Mhm!"

"Don’t be shy, make yourself at home. I’m happy today, so I’ll cook a feast for you!" Mrs. Jiang immediately bustled off to the kitchen.

Ye Fan was promptly dragged away by his mother to serve as her manual laborer.

Meanwhile, Heather and Su Qingxue formally greeted each other. As their hands clasped, they both felt a jolt of familiarity.

At that moment, Heather exclaimed, "Flame Witch!"

"How do you know my name?" Su Qingxue was stunned.

Heather explained, "You were a world-renowned expert a thousand years ago. Of course I remember you. In fact, I’ve even met you before!"

Heather then recalled that she had indeed met the Flame Witch a millennium ago. They had even fought each other back then. At the time, she and the Flame Witch were hailed as the two great wonders of the world. No wonder Su Qingxue had looked so familiar.

Su Qingxue also found Heather familiar, perhaps due to the influence of the Flame Witch’s memories. "I feel like I know you too, but I can’t recall anything from a thousand years ago," she said, and then proceeded to explain her entire situation to Heather.

Heather couldn’t believe that a thousand years could bring such drastic changes. After a millennium, they met again, still themselves yet fundamentally altered. No matter how much had changed, they shared one thing in common: they were both Ye Fan’s women.

Who would have thought that two women from a thousand years ago would both tacitly choose a man who had risen to power in less than a decade to be their man? Perhaps this was what one might call a destiny spanning a thousand years.

As Su Qingxue continued to merge with the Flame Witch’s memories, Heather recounted stories from their era. The two women hit it off immediately. This put Mrs. Jiang’s fears of a conflict between Su Qingxue and Heather to rest. Seeing them so engrossed in their conversation, she couldn’t bring herself to interrupt.

At that moment, she said to Ye Fan, who was busily chopping vegetables, "Tell me, son, how did you manage to woo this Western woman? From her every move, she must be of noble birth, right?"

Ye Fan replied proudly, "But of course. You’re looking at your son, dashing and debonair."

Mrs. Jiang immediately shot him a disdainful look. Ye Fan felt wounded, having been scorned by his own mother.

Mrs. Jiang’s visit to Jiangning was purely for the Ye Family’s business, so she had to leave in a hurry after the meal. Ye Fan had tried to find someone to take over her duties so she wouldn’t have to be so busy, but she had refused. Mrs. Jiang enjoyed the hustle. In this respect, mother and son were very much alike.

After dinner, a bold idea formed in Ye Fan’s mind: why not take both Su Qingxue and Heather at the same time?

They’re both my women, after all! And each one has her own unique charm, personality, and beauty...

At the thought, Ye Fan felt an unbearable itch of desire.
