Liu Xueying almost ground her teeth to powder. Ye Qing'an, you're asking for death!

But soon, Liu Xueying realized something was wrong. Since Ye Qing'an had caught her red-handed, why didn't he use it to make demands? Instead, he just casually exposed her secret right in front of her?

Liu Xueying suddenly shuddered when she remembered Ye Qing'an's words. She quickly looked around, but when she looked up, she saw Ye Weilan standing in the pavilion above her.

"A gentle ripple..."

Ye Weilan's face was full of disbelief, and her whole body was trembling.

Liu Xueying was extremely flustered and hurriedly walked towards Ye Weilan: "Weilan, listen to me, it's not like that, you must not listen to what Ye Qing'an said..."

Ye Qing'an also heard the commotion behind her, and only slightly curled the corners of her lips: "Eleven, what do you call this?"

"This is called karma." Eleven chuckled.

Ye Qing'an was preoccupied with the matter of conducting the spirit stone trial for Eleven. He cultivated in the Cloud Dream Realm until around midnight, then first sent Jiu Xiao to the ancestral hall to inquire, before returning to his room to pick up Eleven and head straight for the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall was eerily quiet at night. Ye Qing'an held Eleven in her arms and stood in the courtyard. She glanced at the ever-burning lamp inside the ancestral hall before turning her gaze to the experimental spirit stone beside her. She narrowed her eyes slightly and then placed Eleven's hand on the spirit stone.

The light from the spirit stone stood out starkly in the night. After the light faded, three words gradually appeared on the spirit stone: "Three Elements Supreme Body".

Ye Qing'an's hand trembled slightly. "Eleven is also a Supreme Physique?"

Ye Qing'an withdrew Eleven's hand, took two steps back, and pursed her lips slightly. Eleven possessed the Three-Element Supreme Physique, which was still some distance from the Nine-Element Supreme Physique, but it was still a very rare talent.

No one should know, otherwise it will definitely bring trouble upon Eleven.

Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes, turned around with Eleven in her arms, and saw a person standing on the roof of the opposite building.

The man was dressed in black, but the golden mask on his face stood out conspicuously in the moonlight.

Xu Mo...

How long has he been here?

Did he see her testing him with eleven spirit stones just now?

Ye Qing'an tightened her grip on Eleven's arms slightly, her lips pressed tightly together as she stared intently at Xu Mo.

Xu Mo seemed to know what she was thinking. With a swift movement, he stood three steps away from Ye Qing'an in the next instant.

This movement technique... is almost supernatural.

As Ye Qing'an was pondering this, she heard Xu Mo speak: "The Three Elements Supreme Body, your young master's talent is truly astonishing."

Sure enough, I saw it.

Ye Qing'an's gaze grew colder: "In the dead of night, instead of sleeping properly, Young Master Xu is wandering around the Ye residence? Young Master Xu is truly remarkable. The Ye residence is not heavily guarded, but it is certainly not a place where just anyone can come and go as they please. Yet Young Master Xu enters as if it were his own home. He must be a top-notch expert."

Xu Mo smiled and said, "Miss Ye, why are you so wary? I came to the Ye residence because I wanted to discuss something with you. However, I saw you here before I even reached your courtyard."

"Aren't Miss Ye and I allies now? Miss Ye holds leverage over me, and I also know some of Miss Ye's secrets..."

ally……

Ye Qing'an pursed her lips, but a murderous intent rose in her heart.

Although she needs to rely on Xu Mo for some things now, she doesn't necessarily need him.

Eleven is still too young; this secret must not fall into the hands of others.

To protect this secret, she would rather kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free.

However, Xu Mo is probably not someone easy to get along with.

Ye Qing'an suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes and only narrowed them slightly: "You said you came to the Ye residence to find me. May I ask what business Young Master Xu has with me?"

"This evening, I received a visiting card from Lord Ye delivered to Lanting Xiaozhu."

So fast?

"I've come, naturally, for this invitation." Xu Mo strode in, his voice cold: "If you want to gain a foothold in the Ye family and develop your own power, I want to have an identity that allows me to stand openly before Consort Lan."

“Ye Qinghao’s visit under the guise of expressing gratitude is an opportunity.” Xu Mo looked at Ye Qing’an: “What’s yours is also mine.”

Xu Mo's words are not without merit.

Ye Qing'an pursed her lips: "Ye Qinghao mentioned to me that Lanting Pavilion, to which Lanting Xiaozhu belongs, is a medical cultivation sect that once declined but has shown signs of resurgence in recent years?"

"Yes." Xu Mo nodded.

Ye Qing'an raised her eyes: "I told Ye Qinghao that you rebuilt my dantian and repaired my meridians. Judging from Ye Qinghao's words, it seems that he intends to win you over and make you work for him."

Ye Qing'an's eyes were filled with suspicion: "Do you know medicine? Ye Qinghao is not someone who can be easily fooled. He will definitely try to test you in every way possible. If something goes wrong with you..."

Xu Mo chuckled: "If anything goes wrong with me, we're both finished."

Ye Qing'an's gaze deepened, and a murderous intent rose in her heart again. He was right; if anything went wrong with him, Ye Qinghao would definitely suspect her.

Xu Mo, however, seemed to be a cunning fox, having read Ye Qing'an's thoughts perfectly. He simply chuckled and said, "Miss Ye, rest assured. Since I have entered Lanting Pavilion, medical cultivation is of no concern to me."

"Besides that, there's one more thing," Ye Qing'an spoke again, "your..."

"My mask." Before he could finish speaking, Xu Mo interrupted him: "I've already said that I want to find a legitimate identity to approach Consort Lan openly and legitimately. Since it's legitimate, I will naturally take off this mask when the time comes."

This person... seems to be able to read minds.

Such people must not be allowed to live.

Ye Qing'an had murderous thoughts for the third time.

"Want to kill me?" Xu Mo's smiling voice suddenly rang in her ears, extremely soft, yet like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the depths of Ye Qing'an's heart.

"What a pity." Xu Mo's figure flickered, and he took two steps back. "Miss Ye is still no match for me."

"Not only now, but even in three to five years, Miss Ye probably won't be my match."

Xu Mo curled the corners of his lips, and a golden mask looked even more eerie under the moonlight: "Miss Ye is a smart person. A smart person naturally knows what should and shouldn't be done. Since you can't touch me, why not be my ally?"

"Believe me, it's much better to be my ally than my enemy."

This person is quite arrogant.

Ye Qing'an pursed her lips: "Young Master Xu should be a smart man. I don't need to repeat what you just said, do I? I'm sure you know what to say and what not to say..."

"Of course." Xu Mo smiled. "I will keep Miss Ye's secret."

"Meet me at Lanting Xiaozhu in three days."

Xu Mo's figure disappeared before Ye Qing'an's eyes, and his voice gradually faded away...
