Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 515 - 242, Hexi Hou Mansion_3
It seems that’s what the other brothers in the army think too. Cheng Yunye glanced at Ding Cheng in front of him—he’s a very good example. Ding Cheng’s background was even more humble than his. He was just an Open Body Eightfold Loose Cultivator before. Then he broke through to Ten Layers of Body Openings, passed the family trials, and joined the Red Flame Army. The two of them were assigned to the same team and their tempers were quite similar, so they gradually became familiar with each other.
That was the idea Ding Cheng told him before.
He wasn’t quite like Ding Cheng though. Apart from seeing the potential in the Hou Clan, he truly owed a life-saving debt to the Fifth Young Master, Hou Yuduan, and after his family assumed control of Longxiang County, they even helped avenge the Cheng Family’s grievances. Just those two favors alone were enough reason for him and his sister to serve the Hou Clan wholeheartedly.
To serve, although right now it’s probably more like causing trouble!
Cheng Yunye shook his head with a bitter smile. He and his sister truly harbored thoughts of repaying their debt, but sadly both of their strengths were really too weak.
He had finally broken through to Ten Layers of Body Openings, thinking he could have a bit of presence at last. But after joining the Red Flame Army, he found that Ten Layers of Body Openings was just the bare minimum standard for recruiting soldiers in the Red Flame Army.
His sister, Cheng Yundie, had also joined the subordinate Hou Sect led by the Third Young Miss, Hou Yuling. After she joined, she found that her Ten Layers of Body Openings cultivation barely met the threshold.
Seeing the rate at which the family was developing, he feared that even if he broke through to the Gang Qi Realm, the help he could offer the clan would be limited. Unless he reached the Grandmaster Realm, that would be truly helpful to the family and Fifth Young Master. After all, there were only seven people in the clan at the Master Realm Martial Artist level, apart from the five young masters, making a total of twelve.
"What a dream, I haven’t even broken through to the Gang Qi Realm, let alone the Grandmaster Realm. By the time I become a Grandmaster, I’m afraid the Family Head and Fifth Young Master will have reached the Yin Yang Holy Realm!"
Comparing oneself to another could really be infuriating...
Thinking of the Family Head and Fifth Young Master, as well as the Second Young Master, Third Young Miss, and Fourth Young Master—these five siblings who were only three or four years older than him—Cheng Yunye kept shaking his head. Compared with the five siblings of the family head, he and Cheng Yundie’s talents were truly pitiful.
But he wasn’t too discouraged in his heart. If the difference was slight, maybe he might feel a bit defeated, but with such a huge gap, there was nothing to worry about. Moreover, looking at The World, there were probably not many who could compare with the talents of the five siblings of the family head.
"Brother, aren’t you setting off today?"
A gentle call interrupted Cheng Yunye’s thoughts. Raising his head, he realized that his sister, Cheng Yundie, had already approached their table. Cheng Yundie’s face clearly harbored something, and as she spoke to him, her gaze focused on the entrance of the Hou Mansion behind Shengxin Residence.
Right, today is the roll call day. I have to return to Baiye Camp!
Cheng Yunye and Ding Cheng suddenly remembered that their ten-day leave in the army was over; today, they had to hurry back to report to Baiye Camp. The two of them didn’t dare to delay and quickly stood up, preparing to rush out.
Suddenly, Cheng Yunye thought of something and followed his sister’s gaze toward the gate of the Hou Mansion. He suddenly saw a group of people riding horses, stopping at the entrance, and his expression froze. Smacking his head, he said, "I almost forgot, today is the fifteenth, the Fifth Young Master’s day to inspect Baiye Camp. We’re not in a rush; we can just leave with the Fifth Young Master later!"
Ding Cheng also snapped back to reality, nodded in agreement, and looked towards the gate of the Hou Mansion. His eyes lit up as he exclaimed, "Look, there’s the Fifth Young Master! Hey, who is that in green clothes, daring to walk in front of the Fifth Young Master?"
Walking in front of the Fifth Young Master, Cheng Yunye focused his gaze. Recognizing the figure in green clothes immediately, his eyes showed intense admiration, and he said with renewed vigour, "That is the Family Head. The Family Head is also going to Baiye Camp today!"
After saying this, Cheng Yunye turned back to say farewell to his sister, but he saw Cheng Yundie staring intently at the Fifth Young Master who had just dismounted, her face showing a bit of helplessness, though her heart still didn’t stir much.

In the whole Hexi Four Counties, the number of girls infatuated with the Fifth Young Master of the Hou Mansion, Hou Yuduan, was beyond count. Some of those girls hadn’t even seen the Fifth Young Master’s face and were already madly obsessed. So it was no wonder his sister Cheng Yundie, who was once saved by the Fifth Young Master himself, couldn’t help but gaze at him.
