**Qin Mansion.**
Early in the morning, Qin Yongda received a message.
“Ye Wushuang has been taken out of the Ye Mansion by people from the Soul-Devouring Hall?”
“Yes.”
“Was he alone?”
“Yes.”
Upon hearing the report, Qin Yongda was puzzled: “When did this kid get involved with the Soul-Devouring Hall? If Mo Xuan is protecting him, that could be troublesome…”
The Soul-Devouring Hall was not only deeply entrenched in Liuyue City but also had significant backing throughout the Qingyun Empire. If Ye Wushuang had a close relationship with the Soul-Devouring Hall, even the Qin clan might be reluctant to provoke them over this matter. This was certainly not good news.
Qin Yongda immediately ordered, “Investigate immediately how Ye Wushuang got involved with the Soul-Devouring Hall. Also, tell everyone to keep a close eye on the Ye Mansion. If there’s an opportunity, strike at once. If not, do not force it.”
“Yes, sir.”
**Yun Mansion.**
Yun Qingyue, dressed in a neat martial outfit that accentuated her budding figure, exuded an elegant yet sharp presence. She was practicing a set of boxing techniques and was now resting in the courtyard pavilion.
“Speak, what is it?”
In front of Yun Qingyue, a person was kneeling.
“Miss, Ye Wushuang has left the Ye Mansion and was taken to the Soul-Devouring Hall by two guards at the ninth level of the Physical Training Realm.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyue was taken aback.
Two guards at the ninth level of the Physical Training Realm! The Soul-Devouring Hall was clearly protecting Ye Wushuang. With such a significant event yesterday, the Soul-Devouring Hall must have been aware, yet they still dared to act this way?
What could Ye Wushuang possibly have that was worth the Soul-Devouring Hall risking the wrath of the Qin and Yun families to protect him so fiercely?
“The Soul-Devouring Hall… Yun Chang died yesterday on the life-and-death arena, at the hands of a sixteen-year-old…”
Suddenly, Yun Qingyue stood up, releasing a terrifying aura from within her.
“Very well, Ye Wushuang, very well indeed!” Yun Qingyue let out a cold snort and slapped the table with her slender hand.
With a loud crash, the stone table in the pavilion shattered into pieces.
The onlookers around her knelt down, not daring to breathe heavily.
In the Yun family, the eldest miss was not only exceptionally talented but also extremely intelligent. Many matters within the mansion were now frequently discussed with her by the family head himself.
“I thought you were surely dead, but instead, you’ve outsmarted us. Yun Chang was killed by you, wasn’t he, Ye… Wushuang!”
At this moment, Yun Qingyue was furious and shouted, “Investigate immediately how Ye Wushuang got involved with the Soul-Devouring Hall.”
“Yes, miss.”
**Liuyue City.**
Ye Wushuang’s departure from the Ye Mansion not only alarmed the Qin and Yun families but also caught the attention of various other factions, each taking note of the situation.
**Inside the Soul-Devouring Hall.**
Mo Xuan and Mo Xiao greeted Ye Wushuang with great enthusiasm.
Mo Xiao, with her voluptuous figure, approached Ye Wushuang and couldn’t help but laugh, “Young man, you really have quite the nerve. Aren’t you afraid that the Soul-Devouring Hall might join forces with the Qin and Yun families to lure you here and kill you?”
“I don’t think so.”
“Oh, and why is that?” Mo Xiao asked curiously, blinking her eyes.
“After all, you still need me for the arrays within the Soul-Devouring Hall. Besides, if you had tried to attack me on the way here, I believe I could have escaped. But if you were to try something within the Soul-Devouring Hall… I don’t think I would be the one to die.”
Hearing this, and looking into Ye Wushuang’s clear and calm eyes, Mo Xiao was taken aback for a moment.
Mo Xuan then laughed heartily and said, “Don’t worry. The Soul-Devouring Hall here in Liuyue City is at odds with the four major families. Collaborating with them is out of the question. Moreover, we don’t really care about the four major families!”
The Soul-Devouring Hall engaged in many underhanded businesses and had the backing to stand firm in Liuyue City.
“Today, I am here to set up the second core array!”
“Very well.”
With that, Mo Xiao led Ye Wushuang deeper into the Soul-Devouring Hall…
At this moment, Hall Master Mo Xuan was heading to another location within the Soul-Devouring Hall, eventually arriving at a particular room.
