In reality, Wang Xueqi was not doubting Ye Wushuang’s words. She had already made numerous guesses in her mind. Moreover, after arriving in the capital and learning about the things Ye Wushuang had done, she was already somewhat convinced. However, hearing it directly from Ye Wushuang still left her quite astonished.
What kind of person was Ye Wushuang, really?
Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “The Qin clan, after all, lost a Yuanfu realm cultivator and two Ningmai realm experts in Liuyue City. They couldn’t possibly let it go without an investigation. Fortunately, I have some connections in the Dark Soul Sect, so I asked them to keep an eye on things.”
“You can rest easy when you enter the academy. Your father in Liuyue City will be safe.”
“Thank you,” Wang Xueqi bowed, looking at Ye Wushuang and continued, “Actually, when I helped you back then, and you saved me last time, we were already even…”
Ye Wushuang, however, 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 a daze. Ye Wushuang had made a name for himself and showcased his talent in the capital. Wang Xueqi felt that the gap between them was growing wider, and she couldn’t help but recall her father’s words.
Ye Wushuang was like a hidden dragon in the depths, and she might never be able to keep up with his pace!
But come to think of it, when had she ever been close to Ye Wushuang in the first place?
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 girl after another!”
“Huh?”
Ye Wushuang was utterly confused.
Xiao Yuan continued, “I just saw Wang Xueqi walking out, looking dazed. I stood right in front of her, and she didn’t even notice me…”
…
Ye Wushuang looked at Xiao Yuan and said, “Spit it out if you have something to say.”
Xiao Yuan sat down directly and said, “The Xuanpin Lingjue Tengyun Palm you passed on to me, I’ve already mastered it, but there’s still something missing. Tell me more about it.”
Ye Wushuang replied, “The trial starts tomorrow. I have a month to help you…”
“No way!”
Xiao Yuan was firm, “I just saw Xiao Rong and Xiao Yin.”
Xiao Rong?
Xiao Yin?
Who were these two?
Seemingly noticing Ye Wushuang’s confusion, Xiao Yuan continued, “Do you remember what I told you before about my awakening of bloodline? It was good for the Xiao clan, but bad for some core figures within the clan.”
“The Xiao clan, being such a large family, is extremely particular about the distinction between main and collateral lines. I thought that awakening my bloodline would bring honor to my parents and our branch, but it ended up bringing a death threat.”
“Xiao Rong, who is sixth on the Newcomers’ List, and his sister Xiao Yin, are both main-line descendants and among those who want to kill me…”
Ye Wushuang immediately understood and said, “So that’s why you’re in such a hurry to find me and fully grasp the Lingjue you’ve learned?”
“Yes.”
“It’s okay, we’ll talk about it tomorrow,” Ye Wushuang smiled, “This time, we’ll take down the geniuses of the major clans together.”
Xiao Yuan, however, looked at Ye Wushuang with a determined expression and said, “You said it yourself, perseverance is the key to cultivation!”
“Let’s talk about it tomorrow…”
“No way.”
In the end, Ye Wushuang, ‘touched’ by Xiao Yuan’s persistence, endured the urge to punch him and taught him until the middle of the night, only letting Xiao Yuan leave satisfied.
The next day, early in the 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 curiously, “Brother Ye, what’s wrong with you?”
Ye Wushuang didn’t say anything but cast a rather aggrieved glance at Xiao Yuan.
Instantly, both Qing Chengtian and Shi Yan felt their hairs stand on end.
Could it be that last night… Xiao Yuan went to Ye Wushuang’s room and didn’t come out until the middle of the night? Did the two of them… spark something between them?
No way!
It couldn’t be possible!
Could it be that Ye Wushuang has some kind of special preference, not liking beautiful women like Wang Xueqi, but rather… cool guys like Xiao Yuan?
