“Can you bear to part with it?” Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but ask.
“What’s there to bear or not bear?” Yun Xingjian laughed heartily and said, “Take it and use it. I’ve had my eye on the Five Great Clans for quite some time. It’s not just me; Qing Muyuan feels the same way…”
“I’ll remember this favor,” Ye Wushuang said solemnly as he put away the brocade box.
“Since you owe me a favor, why don’t you tell me how you managed to get the upper hand over Qing Muyuan?” Yun Xingjian asked with curiosity written all over his face.
Ye Wushuang looked at Yun Xingjian with a strange expression in his eyes.
Yun Xingjian couldn’t help but explain, “Don’t look at me like that. Last time, when I was covering for you, I was with Qing Muyuan.”
“He used the Qing Clan’s Deram Bloodline to alter the memories of those people. That’s why the fact that you killed those people from the Five Great Clans didn’t come to light.”
“When I approached him, I found it odd. He seemed… more afraid of your death than I did. How to put it… it was as if you had a hold on his life.”
“I’ve never seen him like this. You should know that emperors are all people with deep and sinister minds.”
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh and said, “You helped me, but it was also a way of using me. The same goes for him helping me, right?”
Hearing this, Yun Xingjian didn’t say anything more.
Using him?
It couldn’t be!
Ye Wushuang must have found some weakness in Qing Muyuan.
But what exactly was it?
Ye Wushuang would never tell Yun Xingjian that he could easily activate the Level Five Spirit Formation in the Qing Clan’s royal palace—the Tianluo Jiugong Formation.
The palace was the lifeline of the royal family.
A Level Five Formation that could kill those at the Tiangang level and severely injure those at the Wanfa level was now in the hands of an outsider, Ye Wushuang. How could Qing Muyuan not be afraid?
He had thought about killing Ye Wushuang directly.
But if Ye Wushuang had any means to activate the Tianluo Jiugong Formation before he died, and the palace was destroyed, it would be a devastating blow to the royal family.
How could Qing Muyuan take that gamble?
That was also why, last time in the underground palace, Qing Shanya and Qing Pengzheng had directly helped Ye Wushuang.
If Ye Wushuang were to activate the Tianluo Jiugong Formation on his deathbed, it would be disastrous!
And if Qing Muyuan tried to dismantle the Tianluo Jiugong Formation, not to mention whether he could do it, even if he could, it would take some time.
Moreover, during the dismantling process, if Ye Wushuang were to activate the formation out of anger, it would be equally disastrous.
Thus, Qing Muyuan was passively aligned with Ye Wushuang’s side.
However, both Ye Wushuang and Qing Muyuan had unspokenly agreed to ignore this fact.
Seeing that Ye Wushuang was unwilling to talk more, Yun Xingjian also stopped asking.
Just the fact that Ye Wushuang could cure Mu Junli was enough for Qing Muyuan to ensure that Ye Wushuang must not die.
“The Hundred Nations’ Martial Contest will take place in a month. Think about whether you want to participate. I’ll save a spot for you here!”
“Hmm.”
Yun Xingjian left.
In the valley, Chi Xuan and Chi Yuan, the couple, looked at Ye Wushuang.
Before long, Little Chi Tian came flying over and threw himself into Chi Xuan’s arms. His big eyes were filled with concern, and tears streamed down his face.
The scene of the family of three was heartwarming.
Seeing this, Ye Wushuang had already made up his mind.
“Milord!”
At this moment, Chi Yuan sent a mental message: “Don’t go!”
The Hundred Nations’ Martial Contest was too dangerous.
With the geniuses from a hundred nations and the monsters from the seven great powers, if Ye Wushuang were to take risks for Chi Xuan and something went wrong, Chi Yuan would never be able to find peace in his heart.
In the past, they had failed to save the Ye Clan members, and the couple had already been filled with regret and self-reproach.
How could they let Ye Wushuang risk himself for Chi Xuan again?
Ye Wushuang looked at Chi Yuan and smiled, “Can you really stop me from going?”
“You two are really something. It seems that my reincarnated self is not as good as before. You two now completely disregard me and even dare to oppose my words?”
“Chi Yuan dares not, but, Milord…”
Ye Wushuang feigned anger and said, “And you still dare to say that?”
The couple dared not retort.
Ye Wushuang then said, “I’ll go back and prepare some pills. Chi Xuan will be fine for now. Wait for my good news.”
With that, Ye Wushuang left the valley.
Inside the valley, Little Chi Tian in Chi Xuan’s arms was beaming with joy.
Chi Yuan looked at Chi Xuan and Chi Tian, and a warm current flowed through his heart.
If it weren’t for Ye Wentian in the past and Ye Wushuang today, their family of three would never be able to repay such a kindness in this life!
When Ye Wushuang arrived at the valley entrance, he saw someone he had not expected waiting for him…
