But now that his daughter was grown up and looked more like her mother, Kaner's feelings were more complicated.

Yenny didn't expect to get such an answer and knew right away that things weren't good. She didn't care about Kaner's indifference to her, either as the original owner or as herself, Kaner Trang was almost a stranger except for the name of her father.

If it were not for her third-class lifeblood which were worth cultivating for an ordinary small family, the life of her so-called legitimate daughter in the family might not be as good as that of a distant relative or even a servant.

"Why did you let me be called back in my mother's name, if it had nothing to do with mother?" Yenny’s look didn’t change, her words became cooler. "I'm afraid it's not good for me, is it? Otherwise you would not have used the name you hated as an excuse for fear of me not coming back."

"How Dare!” Kaner's face turned black and he became annoyed. "What are you talking about? As one of Trangs, can't your father ask you coming back?"

"You needn't be angry." Yenny said calmly, undeterred by the person who she called father;

"Nothing is the best. I have signed up for the school competition in three months. I need time to prepare, so I won't stay at home for long." With that, she turned to leave.

"You stop!” Finally, Kaner Trang did not care about their father-daughter relationship. He shouted: "The family has made a engagement for you. When you finished the engagement, you can return to school."

“Engagement?” Yenny stopped and looked Kaner Trang in the eye with a wry look. "I'm only 16. You need to sell your daughter so early for the good of the family?”

With his own daughter's mocking gaze upon him, he felt a kind of shame that he could not escape, and he wanted to leave at once.

"Isn't it normal to make an engagement at sixteen? This is the ancestor personally agreed, your fiance is good, won’t let you have bad life." he said stiffly, forcing him to ignore the way she looked at him.

“I'm afraid the ancestor doesn't know my current situation." Yenny didn't care about his father's attitude. She was as cool as if she were talking about other people's business.

“I am 16 years old and have reached Grade 8 of meditation phase, and i can access into the foundation phase before I am 20 years old. Although I am still in the minor college for the time being, I already have a great and successful private teacher who wants to take me as a first disciple after the school competition. A father who hasn't paid attention to his daughter in years should know what this means."

At this point, under Kaner's eyes full of shock, she paused and resumed; "It means that the speed and potential of my cultivation is equal to those so-called geniuses! I don't think the ancestor, if he had known what was happening to me, would have allowed one of the most promising future pillars of the family to be married off so early."

“You......” Kaner was overwhelmed by her daughter's comments, and his look at her daughter was extremely complicated.

He really did not expect that his daughter who had been neglected all these years would grow up to such a strong position unconsciously.

This strength was not only on the cultivation level, but from the heart and bone and blood and even the soul of the strong, as if the great difficulties could not make her panic, all in her control, just like a small cake.

"You... Are you really accepted as a closed disciple by the teacher of immortality phase in the school?" He avoided her gaze rather awkwardly, but could not resist confirming what his daughter had just said.

As for the cultivation, he now remembered that four years ago when his daughter went to the Cloud school selection, she was just first grade of meditation phase. From first to eighth grade in four years, the speed of practising was similar to that of Tenny, the first-class lifeblood niece who was regarded as the hope of the entire family.

"The school competition is in three months." Yenny put it plainly.

They would find out in three months. There was no need for her to lie about such a thing.

Yenny didn't feel happy when she learned that her father had arranged for her to be engaged so early. Instead, she felt strangely sad for the original owner. She had no mother since childhood, and her father, who only valued the interests of the family, had no affection for her at all, even the only daughter's life affair could be arranged without asking the parties concerned.
