Chapter 550 Why Can He Become the Grand Tutor?
Ye Qing'an was bending down to apply ointment to Yi Moxu when she heard this and suddenly looked up: "Where is Gu Duo's lost soul? Why do you suspect that? Have you gotten any clues?"
“No clues.” Yi Moxu shook his head. “I can’t explain why, it’s just a gut feeling. When I went to the Monster Forest to investigate before, I vaguely sensed that there was someone there. I originally thought that someone was there, but I tried to use the Fire Release technique to search around, but I found nothing.”
"At the time, I didn't think much of it and just assumed that I had made a mistake. But several times later, I sensed human presence, but each time I tried to investigate, I came up empty-handed."
"Later..." Yi Moxu's lips curled up: "It was when you were in Wangjing City investigating Gu Duo's affairs and trying to get information out of Yi Yunkui that suddenly gave me a jolt."
"Then I thought..."
Before Yi Moxu could finish speaking, Ye Qing'an interrupted him, saying, "You might think that since you couldn't detect the person inside using the Fire Separation Technique, could it be that the aura you sensed, which was that of a human, wasn't actually a real person, but rather a scattered soul?"
“Yes.” Yi Moxu nodded: “Because in a few days, after the Crown Prince and you arrive with your army, I’m afraid I’ll have a hard time finding time to investigate the Monster Forest again. So tonight, I took advantage of your Cloud Dreamland to go to the Monster Forest again.”
"I had never reached the true Devil's Eye before, but today I finally did."
Yi Moxu took a deep breath: "Although I already knew that the magical beast guarding the very center of the magical beast forest was extremely powerful, I still underestimated it. Then I was surrounded and attacked by more than ten magical beasts. I was only able to escape alive thanks to this Dream Cloud Realm."
"If it weren't for your Cloud Dreamland, I'm afraid I would have been injured even more severely."
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "So, rounding up, I am your savior."
Yi Moxu was amused by Ye Qing'an's unique algorithm. After laughing for a while, he nodded and said, "Your rounding method sounds illogical, but upon closer inspection, it seems to make sense."
Yi Moxu lowered his voice, almost whispering, but his voice became even deeper and more magnetic, making Ye Qing'an feel a tingling sensation on almost half of his body.
"So, Miss Ye saved me again. How does Miss Ye hope I can repay her great kindness? Perhaps..."
"Goodbye." Ye Qing'an had already applied ointment to his wounds: "I'll let you repay me with your body."
"Cough cough..." Yi Moxu almost choked on his own laughter: "How can we let it go?"
Ye Qing'an glanced at him: "Of course, the matter of repaying the debt of gratitude cannot be forgotten. What I meant by forgetting it was repaying me with my body. As for how you want to repay me, I need to think about it carefully and I will bring it up with you when I have thought it through. That Eye of the Devil is so dangerous, so don't go exploring it so easily next time."
"Since it's a magical beast, perhaps we can send Jiuxiao, along with your Taotie, to investigate."
Ye Qing'an turned around and put the medicine bottle away. When she turned back, she saw Yi Moxu staring at her with a slight smile.
Ye Qing'an froze. Under Yi Moxu's gaze, even someone as worldly-wise as her couldn't help but feel her heart pounding like thunder.
Ye Qing'an coughed lightly: "Aren't you going to ask why I called you here today?"
Yi Moxu naturally knew she was changing the subject, and his smile deepened: "Alright, then let me ask, Miss Ye, what did you call me here for today?"
After Yi Moxu finished speaking, he didn't wait for Ye Qing'an's reply and went straight to the point: "I already know what happened last night. The Crown Prince plotted against you, and I will find a way to teach him a lesson so that he will remember this matter well, and remember that you are not to be touched."
"This is my business, I can handle it myself." Ye Qing'an said nonchalantly.
“If you can handle it, that’s your business. If I want revenge, that’s my business. If Yi Yun Kui can’t control him, then let me teach him a lesson.”
Ye Qing'an couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this: "You're the younger brother, how can you discipline your older brother?"
"Some things aren't about age, but about... ability."
Ye Qing'an lowered her head, her eyes almost overflowing with laughter, even though she could indeed handle these things on her own.
But the sight of someone protecting her like this unexpectedly brought a sense of joy.
"I am here today because Liu Enze has come to the camp."
"Grand Tutor Liu?"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "I met him earlier, and he treated me quite well because of my mother's situation. During our casual conversation earlier, he mentioned that the situation in the rebel army was somewhat strange. I think he is most likely suspicious."
“He must have taught you before, so he should know you quite well. Could it be that he discovered you weren’t in the camp?”
“That’s possible.” Yi Moxu pondered for a moment. “But it’s not a big deal. Although I wasn’t in the camp before, I will be back tomorrow. Even if he has any suspicions, he certainly won’t have any evidence. By the time he really starts investigating, I will already be there.”
“That makes sense, but you have to be careful. This Grand Tutor Liu seems to be frighteningly perceptive.” Speaking of this, Ye Qing’an recounted what had happened to Jiu Xiao earlier: “I heard Liu Enze say that the rebels were acting strangely, so I left on my own. After returning to the camp, I wanted to send Jiu Xiao to eavesdrop, but I didn’t expect that he would discover Jiu Xiao before he even got close.”
"But I remember that Liu Enze's Xuanling Technique doesn't seem to be that powerful. At least, in all the time I've been in Wangjing City, I've never heard anyone say that Liu Enze's Xuanling Technique is profound. If his Xuanling Technique isn't powerful, how exactly did Liu Enze discover the Nine Heavens?"
Yi Moxu pursed his lips: "Do you know why Liu Enze was able to become the Grand Tutor?"
"Hmm?" Ye Qing'an raised his eyes. Why was he appointed as the Grand Tutor? What kind of question was that?
However, Ye Qing'an still thought about it carefully. When she was the regent, the selection of the Grand Tutor was...
"One must either be exceptionally outstanding in one of the four arts (literary or military), or be skilled in politics and have expertise in governance strategies, or possess outstanding moral character in order to become an imperial tutor."
Yi Moxu nodded: "Liu Enze is proficient in all of the things you mentioned, except for the Xuanling Technique, which is slightly weaker."
“He is proficient in everything, but his Xuanling Technique is slightly weaker, so… martial arts?” Ye Qing’an became increasingly puzzled.
"In martial arts, one does not necessarily need to be highly skilled in mystical arts. One can also be familiar with all the martial arts manuals and cultivation techniques, and possess extremely high agility."
