“Do you really have the heart to let go?” Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but ask.
“What’s there to have or not have the heart for?” Yun Xingjian laughed heartily and said, “Take it and use it. I’ve been annoyed with the Five Great Clans for a long time, and so has Qing Muyuan…”
“I’ll remember this favor.”
Ye Wushuang put away the brocade box and nodded solemnly.
“Since you owe me a favor, why not tell me how you managed to get a hold of Qing Muyuan?” Yun Xingjian asked with curiosity written all over his face.
Ye Wushuang looked at Yun Xingjian with a strange gaze.
Yun Xingjian couldn’t help but say, “Don’t look at me like that. Last time, when I was covering for you, I was with Qing Muyuan.”
“He used the Yanmeng bloodline of the Qing Clan to alter the memories of those people. That’s why your act of killing those people from the Five Great Clans didn’t get exposed.”
“When I approached him, I found it odd. He seemed… even more afraid of your death than I was. How to put it… it was as if you had grasped his Achilles’ heel…”
“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 helping me is also a form of using me. His help, isn’t it the same?”
Hearing this, Yun Xingjian didn’t say anything more.
Utilization?
It couldn’t be!
Ye Wushuang must have grasped some weakness of Qing Muyuan.
But what exactly was it?
Ye Wushuang would certainly not tell Yun Xingjian that he, Ye Wushuang, could effortlessly activate the fifth-level spirit array, the Tianluo Jiugong Array, in the royal palace of the Qing Clan’s imperial family.
The royal palace was the lifeline of the imperial family.
A fifth-level array that guarded the palace, capable of slaying those at the Tiangang realm and inflicting injuries on those at the Wanfa realm, was now in the hands of an outsider like Ye Wushuang. How could Qing Muyuan not be afraid?
He had considered killing Ye Wushuang outright.
But… if Ye Wushuang had any means to activate the Tianluo Jiugong Array before dying, and the palace was destroyed, it would be a devastating blow to the imperial 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 Array in his dying moments, everything would be ruined!
And if Qing Muyuan were to dismantle the Tianluo Jiugong Array, not to mention whether he could do it or not, it would take some time even if he could.
Moreover… during the dismantling process, if Ye Wushuang were to get upset and activate the array, that would also be disastrous.
Thus, Qing Muyuan was passively aligned with Ye Wushuang’s side.
However, both Ye Wushuang and Qing Muyuan had mutually acknowledged that this matter did not exist.
Seeing that Ye Wushuang was unwilling to say more, Yun Xingjian also stopped asking.
The fact that Ye Wushuang could cure Mu Junli alone 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 will save a spot for you here!”
“Hmm.”
Yun Xingjian left.
In the valley, Chi Xuan and Chi Yuan, the couple, looked at Ye Wushuang.
Not long after, little Chi Tian came flying over and threw himself into Chi Xuan’s arms. His big eyes, filled with a gaze of heartache, shed tears that fell like rain.
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 transmitted his voice, “Don’t go!”
The Hundred Nations Martial Contest was far too dangerous.
With the prodigies from a hundred nations and the geniuses from the seven hegemons, if Ye Wushuang were to take risks for Chi Xuan and something went wrong, Chi Yuan would never be at ease in his lifetime.
The couple had already been filled with regret and self-reproach for not being able to save the Ye Clan members in the past.
How could they let Ye Wushuang put himself in danger for Chi Xuan again?
Ye Wushuang looked at Chi Yuan and smiled, “Can you really control whether I go or not?”
“You two are really something. It seems that my reincarnated self is not as strong 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. For now, Chi Xuan will be fine. 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, feeling a warm current flowing through his heart.
If it weren’t for Ye Wentian in the past and Ye Wushuang now, the kindness to their family of three would be impossible to repay in this life!
As Ye Wushuang reached the entrance of the valley, he saw someone he had not expected waiting for him…
