In reality, Wang Xueqi did not doubt Ye Wushuang’s words. She had her own speculations, and after arriving in the capital and learning about Ye Wushuang’s actions, she had become more certain. However, hearing it from Ye Wushuang’s mouth still left her astonished. What kind of person was Ye Wushuang, really?
Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “The Qin clan did lose a Yuanfu stage and two Nongmai stage experts in Liuyue City; they can’t just let it go. Fortunately, I have some connections in the Dark Soul Hall, so I asked them to keep an eye on things.”
“You can rest easy when you enter the academy. Your father in Liuyue City won’t be in any danger.”
“Thank you,” Wang Xueqi bowed, looking at Ye Wushuang and continued, “Actually, when I helped you in the past and you saved me last time, we were already even…”
Ye Wushuang waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to thank me for what I can do. Get some rest; the next month is going to be tough.”
“Okay,” Wang Xueqi left Ye Wushuang’s room and returned to her own, lost in thought. Ye Wushuang had become famous in the capital, showing his talent. Wang Xueqi felt that she was drifting further and further away from him, and she couldn’t help but recall her father’s words. Ye Wushuang was like a dragon lying low in the depths; she might not be able to keep up with his pace anymore! But come to think of it, when had she ever been close to Ye Wushuang?
As Wang Xueqi left, Xiao Yuan pushed the door open and entered Ye Wushuang’s room directly.
“What’s up with you now?” Ye Wushuang asked curiously.
Xiao Yuan stood by the door, looking at Ye Wushuang with a stiff tone, “I think you’re going to keep breaking the hearts of one young girl after another!”
“Huh?”
Ye Wushuang was puzzled.
Xiao Yuan continued, “I just saw Wang Xueqi walking out, completely dazed. I stood right in front of her, and she didn’t even notice me…”
Ye Wushuang looked at Xiao Yuan and said, “Get to the point if you have something to say.”
Xiao Yuan sat down and said, “The Xuan-grade spiritual technique, Tengyun Palm, that you passed on to me, I’ve already grasped it, but there’s something missing. Tell me more about it.”
Ye Wushuang replied, “We have a month during the trial tomorrow to help you…”
“No way!”
Xiao Yuan was firm, “I just saw Xiao Rong and Xiao Yin, brother and sister.”
Xiao Rong?
Xiao Yin?
Who were these two?
Seemingly noticing Ye Wushuang’s confusion, Xiao Yuan explained, “Do you remember what I told you before about my awakened bloodline being good for the Xiao clan but bad for some core members within the clan?”
“The Xiao clan, being such a large family, is extremely particular about distinguishing between direct and collateral lines. I thought that awakening my bloodline would bring honor to my parents and our branch, but it actually brought a death threat.”
“Xiao Rong, who is sixth on the freshman list, and his sister Xiao Yin, are direct-line descendants and one of the people who wanted to kill me…”
Ye Wushuang immediately understood and said, “So that’s why you’re in such a hurry to find me and master the spiritual technique you’ve learned?”
“Yeah.”
“It’s okay, we’ll talk about it tomorrow,” Ye Wushuang smiled, “This time, we’ll take down the geniuses from the major clans together.”
Xiao Yuan looked at Ye Wushuang with a determined expression and said, “You said that perseverance is key in cultivation!”
“Let’s talk about it tomorrow…”
“No way.”
Ultimately, moved by Xiao Yuan’s persistence (or perhaps more accurately, annoyed by it), Ye Wushuang endured the urge to punch Xiao Yuan and taught him until the middle of the night, finally letting Xiao Yuan leave satisfied.
The next morning, everyone was awakened by the sound of a bell. They quickly washed up and left their rooms. Ye Wushuang looked a bit lackluster, while Xiao Yuan was full of energy.
Qing Chengtian looked at Ye Wushuang and couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Ye, what’s wrong with you?”
Ye Wushuang didn’t say anything but gave Xiao Yuan a rather reproachful look.
Instantly, Qing Chengtian and Shi Yan felt their hairs stand on end. Could it be that last night… Xiao Yuan had gone to Ye Wushuang’s room and only left in the middle of the night? Had the two of them… sparked something between them?
No way!
That couldn’t be possible!
Did Ye Wushuang have some special preference, not liking beautiful women like Wang Xueqi, but rather… cool guys like Xiao Yuan?
