“Master Cheng.”
Suddenly, Qing Mengli’s voice rang out, saying, “Let them all disperse.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Cheng Yuanbai glanced at Ye Wushuang, his face filled with reluctance. He had so many questions he wished to ask her. But now that Ye Wushuang had become a guest alchemist of the Qingyun Pavilion, there would be plenty of time in the future.
The dispute between Qingyun Pavilion and Shengdan Pavilion came to an end at this moment, with Qingyun Pavilion clearly emerging victorious. The sudden appearance of Ye Wushuang and her astonishing talent in alchemy left everyone in awe.
At that moment, in a luxurious and grand room on the top floor of Qingyun Pavilion, Ye Wushuang, Mu Junli, Qing Mengli, and Mu Qiqi stood together. As for Qing Shihua, Ye Qingfeng, and the others, they had been arranged in another room.
Mu Qiqi, seeing the serious expressions on her parents’ faces, knew that Ye Wushuang had not been lying. Her father’s health… there truly was a problem.
Qing Mengli, the imperial princess, had always been calm and composed. But now, her mature and graceful face showed no trace of composure. She looked straight at Ye Wushuang and asked in a cold, clear voice, “Who are you? Who sent you here?”
This question caught Mu Qiqi off guard.
Ye Wushuang, however, smiled and said, “If you want him to die, you can continue speaking to me in that tone.”
“Do you think I won’t kill you?” Qing Mengli’s voice suddenly turned stern.
“Mother…” Mu Qiqi stood by, stunned and bewildered. What was going on? Why did they want to kill Ye Wushuang?
Ye Wushuang continued, “It seems you think I am someone you can manipulate at will.”
Qing Mengli’s eyes grew colder.
But Mu Junli, at this moment, took his wife’s hand and laughed, “Alright, she hasn’t done anything wrong. Why are you so angry?”
Qing Mengli looked at her husband, her expression dimming. “Your condition is only known to a few other protectors and the head of the Jujian Sect. How could he possibly know?”
“This matter is indeed suspicious,” she added.
Mu Junli, however, laughed and said, “She hasn’t even spoken yet, and you’re already so aggressive…”
Hearing this, Qing Mengli’s eyes welled up with tears. She wasn’t deliberately targeting Ye Wushuang; she was just too worried about her husband.
Mu Qiqi quickly asked, “Father, Mother, what have you been hiding from me?”
Mu Junli looked at his daughter with affection, then turned to Ye Wushuang and said with a smile, “Brother Ye, don’t mind her. My wife is just overly concerned about me.”
“Your alchemical skills are truly unexpected, and your insight is quite sharp. I wonder how you discovered my problem?”
Ye Wushuang finally softened and said indifferently, “You possess strength beyond the Tian Gang realm, which should place you at the Wan Fa level, right?”
Mu Junli nodded.
Ye Wushuang continued, “Tian Gang warriors can condense Tian Gang energy, and there is naturally a sharp, fierce aura around them. However, Wan Fa warriors can conceal their Tian Gang energy. Since you are at the Wan Fa level but cannot conceal your Tian Gang energy, it means that your Wan Fa energy has been affected. This is likely due to a mishap in your martial cultivation.”
“However, you must have taken some fourth-grade spirit pills to suppress the mishap. Over time, they would have gradually dissolved and mitigated the effects. But…”
“During this period, you engaged in combat and suffered severe injuries. The combination of internal and external injuries has damaged your life force foundation.”
Upon hearing these words, Mu Junli’s eyes brightened, and Qing Mengli also looked at Ye Wushuang in astonishment. Could this young man, just by observing Mu Junli, determine all of this?
Mu Qiqi, at that moment, grabbed her father’s arm and asked with tearful eyes, “Father, is this true?”
“Mm…” Mu Junli did not deny it.
Mu Qiqi immediately burst into tears. “Why didn’t you tell me? You lied to me…”
But then, she turned to Ye Wushuang and said, “Ye Wushuang, you saw through my father’s health problem at a glance. You must have a way to solve it, right?”
