Ye Wushuang said again, “Thank you, but I know what I’m doing. Don’t worry.”
With that, there wasn’t much else Chu Qingcheng could say. She turned to leave, but just as she was about to depart, Ye Wushuang’s voice rang out once more.
“Now that you’re a second-tier spiritual array master, I noticed some issues when you were condensing spiritual patterns earlier.”
Ye Wushuang smiled faintly and said, “Here, take this. It might be useful to you.”
Chu Qingcheng took the piece of paper Ye Wushuang handed her, glanced at it, and her expression changed dramatically. “Condensation Technique?” she exclaimed in disbelief.
“Yep,” Ye Wushuang replied. “This is the method for first-tier and second-tier condensation techniques. Study it on your own. If you have any questions, ask your master; she’ll definitely understand.”
Chu Qingcheng was stunned. As a spiritual array master, she knew full well how precious the condensation technique was. It was even more valuable than the alchemical formulas and refining methods of a pill master.
“Go and study it well,” Ye Wushuang said again. “You’ll be participating in the Hundred Nations Martial Contest, right? The more strength you have, the safer you’ll be.”
“Thank you,” Chu Qingcheng said before leaving.
Ye Wushuang continued to bask in the sun. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The rumors that Ye Wushuang had an incurable disease and was about to die spread wider and wider, but he didn’t care.
On this day, in the evening, Ye Wushuang finally appeared in everyone’s sight again. When the disciples of Qingyun Academy saw Ye Wushuang reappear unscathed, they were all abuzz with discussion.
“Isn’t this guy supposed to be dead? Why is he showing up like this?”
“He’s probably pretending. Maybe in a few days, we’ll hear about his death…”
“Now some people are probably going to have trouble sleeping again!”
Ignoring the chatter, Ye Wushuang walked out of Qingyun Academy with a confident air. He strolled along the streets of the imperial capital, thinking of his sister whom he hadn’t seen for a few days. Instead of heading towards the Ye Mansion, he went to look for a delicious candied hawthorn skewer shop in the city.
After asking around, Ye Wushuang found himself in a narrow alley. He walked to the end of the alley and finally saw an old-looking shop.
“Boss, give me two skewers of candied hawthorn!”
“Sure thing.”
The shopkeeper politely wrapped up two skewers of candied hawthorn and handed them to Ye Wushuang. With the skewers in hand, Ye Wushuang smiled and left contentedly. The little girl must be craving them by now, he thought.
As he walked back along the alley, the path grew narrower and narrower until, eventually, it was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Ye Wushuang frowned and continued forward. When he reached a narrow pass, he took a step forward, and the surroundings changed instantly.
What met his eyes was not the spacious streets of the imperial capital’s market, but… a valley.
“A spiritual array!” Ye Wushuang’s brow arched.
The place he was in was surrounded by dead ends, with only a series of peaks enclosing the area into a valley, spanning a thousand feet in diameter. Clearly, such a scene could not simply appear in the imperial capital!
“Indeed!” As Ye Wushuang murmured, a leisurely laugh echoed, slowly saying, “I heard that Young Master Ye is also a spiritual array master.”
“It seems, after all, that your abilities are limited, and you didn’t notice. Unwittingly, you’ve walked right into my Four Symbols Sealing Array!”
A soft laugh rang out, and a graceful figure coalesced out of thin air within the valley ahead. She appeared to be in her thirties, exuding a mature charm, with a slender figure. She wore a tight alchemist’s robe that accentuated her curves. But the smile on her face now seemed tinged with a hint of malice…
