For the sake of the family, Yue Feng was willing to send even his daughter away, let alone someone like Yue Qingshan.

On the other end of the Message Stone, Yue Mingkong felt a tinge of bitterness upon hearing her father's words.

It was destined that she wouldn't be the only one by Ye Yun's side.

Including Xia He and Qiu Lan, and now Yun Xi who had just suddenly appeared, there were already four of them.

How long had it been? If this continued, there would probably be even more in the future.

But Yue Mingkong had no choice; she had no other path but to accept it.

With a slight sigh, Yue Mingkong responded bitterly.

"Sigh! Yes, Father, I know what to do."

She longed for the days when she could earn praise through hard cultivation, rather than serving a man like she did now.

After that, the two cut off the communication.

Having received the news, Yue Feng felt he needed to act immediately.

What Yue Qingshan had done had nothing to do with the Yue Family.

So, Yue Feng immediately gathered all the elders and informed them of the situation.

"What?! That brat Yue Qingshan dared to do such a thing! Is he tired of living?!"

"Bastard! He dared to challenge Young Master Ye Yun behind our backs! Does he think our family has lived too long?!"

"Such a person cannot remain in the family! Expel him from the family!"

"Exactly! We can't let this guy continue his reckless behavior! Once he's expelled, he has nothing to do with us!"

"Luckily, Young Master Ye Yun is magnanimous and didn't hold our family accountable for this; otherwise, we'd be in big trouble."

...

One by one, the elders were filled with righteous indignation upon hearing all this.

They even felt a chill down their spines, almost dying from anger.

Who could have imagined that Yue Qingshan would do something so dangerous?

If Ye Yun really pursued the matter, the entire Yue Family might face destruction.

Seeing the elders' indignant expressions, Yue Feng nodded.

Pressing his hands down gently, he spoke loudly.

"Alright, elders, since everyone understands the seriousness of this matter, as the Clan Leader, I have the duty to protect the family's safety.

Therefore, I have decided that from now on, Yue Qingshan will be expelled from the family. He will no longer be a member of the Yue Family!"

His voice was firm and resolute, without a trace of hesitation.

All the elders present nodded in agreement, sharing the same opinion.

The Grand Elder stroked his graying beard and agreed.

"Exactly! Expel this troublemaker from the family. From now on, our Yue Family has nothing to do with Yue Qingshan!"

Since both the Clan Leader and the Grand Elder had spoken, the remaining elders naturally had no objections.

The news was then immediately spread, letting everyone know that Yue Qingshan was no longer part of the Yue Family.

From that moment on, Yue Qingshan lost his family, and the Yue Family would no longer protect him.

...

Meanwhile, on Ye Yun's side.

He suddenly received a notification from the System.

"Ding! Yue Qingshan has been expelled from the Yue Family, severing all ties with them. Lost 500 Fate Points, congratulations to the host for gaining 500 Villain Points.

Currently possessing 1000 Villain Points!"

Upon receiving this news, Ye Yun felt a bit surprised.

He hadn't expected Yue Qingshan to be expelled from the Yue Family, and he had inexplicably gained 500 Villain Points.

At this moment, Yue Mingkong walked in from outside, and Ye Yun looked up to see her.

Seeing Yue Mingkong, Ye Yun could roughly guess.

It was likely that Yue Mingkong had informed the Yue Family about Yue Qingshan's challenge, and the Yue Family, worried about being implicated, expelled Yue Qingshan immediately.

The purpose was to avoid implicating the Yue Family and to sever ties with Yue Qingshan as much as possible.

"Hehe!"

Shaking his head with a smile, Ye Yun found it amusing that he could gain Villain Points without doing anything.

Seeing Ye Yun's inexplicable smile, Yue Mingkong felt a bit puzzled.

Nothing had happened here, so why was Ye Yun smiling?

Although she was curious, Yue Mingkong didn't ask.

As Ye Yun's personal maid, she knew what she should know, and she absolutely couldn't ask about things she shouldn't.

Xia He had made this very clear to Yue Mingkong before.

Therefore, even though Yue Mingkong was curious, she held back and didn't ask Ye Yun.

Just then, Ye Yun's voice pulled Yue Mingkong back to reality.

"Just now... you were communicating with your father, right?"

Hearing this, Yue Mingkong's eyes widened, her pupils contracting sharply.

She had been careful to ensure no one was around before communicating with Yue Feng.

Yet, she hadn't expected to be discovered despite her secrecy.

In a panic, she quickly lowered her head, clenching her hands tightly in nervousness.

Xia He had previously taught her never to relay any information about the Young Master to others.

But just now, Yue Mingkong had completely forgotten about this, and only remembered now.

"This... Young Master, it was my father who contacted me. He wanted to know if Yue Qingshan had done anything out of line. Other than that, I really didn't say anything."

At this moment, Yue Mingkong suddenly felt a bit scared.

She had forgotten about this earlier, and now that she remembered, she felt a bit afraid.

If Ye Yun disliked her because of this, she would have no chance in the future.

She knew she couldn't stop Ye Yun from seeking other women, but she didn't want to remain just a personal maid.

In Yue Mingkong's lowered field of vision, a figure suddenly appeared, standing right in front of her.

Even just by looking at the clothes, she knew the person in front of her was Ye Yun.

Looking at Yue Mingkong, who dared not meet his gaze, Ye Yun gently lifted her chin with his finger.

Yue Mingkong's eyes were filled with tension, her whole body taut.

"You should know, I don't like anyone telling others about my matters, no matter how small.

I believe Xia He explained this to you clearly, but... why did you still do it?"

Ye Yun gently pinched Yue Mingkong's chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.

With her chin held, Yue Mingkong dared not resist, her hands tightly clenched into fists.

At this moment, she felt as if her heart was being tightly squeezed by something.
