Chapter 517 Place a Bet
After Yi Moxu finished speaking, seeing Ye Qing'an nod, he smiled again: "What? Feeling sorry for Gu Duo? I didn't realize that my Qing'an is actually a soft-hearted and kind person."
“No sympathy.” Ye Qing’an refused to admit that she had felt a moment of indignation for Gu Duo’s plight, and only argued: “I just feel that Gu Duo was the only supreme being of Siyou Kingdom more than ten or twenty years ago. Back then, he was probably just like me, being watched and schemed against by countless people. I want to know what he went through back then, so that I can give myself a warning in advance and not let what happened back then happen again.”
"Furthermore, I feel that Gu Duo's series of events are of great importance and involve many people. Back then, Gu Duo's defection to the enemy and betrayal of his country made him almost universally condemned and hated in Siyou Kingdom. If the truth of what happened back then were to be revealed, it would probably cause quite a stir. I am trying to fan the flames and make this murky water even muddier."
Yi Moxu smiled and said, "Yes, I believe you. You didn't sympathize with him, and you're not kind either."
"..." Ye Qing'an rolled her eyes. Why did she always feel that Yi Moxu was indirectly cursing her?
Ye Qing'an shot him a sharp glare: "Has Prince Duan forgotten that I am now a Supreme Being? If you really anger me, don't blame me for being impolite."
Yi Moxu clicked her tongue: "Miss Ye is threatening me. I'm so scared."
He kept saying he was scared, but the smile on his face completely betrayed his true feelings.
This is blatant irony and contempt.
Ye Qing'an gritted her teeth and only let out a soft snort: "Speaking of which, we haven't even fought since I upgraded to a Supreme. I'd like to see whether a Supreme with Profound Spirit Techniques is more powerful, or your Ninefold Blazing Fire Technique is more powerful..."
"Does Prince Duan dare to accept the challenge?"
Yi Moxu naturally had nothing to fear, and just looked at Ye Qing'an with a smile: "Alright, but if the two of us were to really fight, I'm afraid the world would lose its color and the wind and clouds would change. That might be a bit scary, wouldn't it?"
“We can make our move inside the Cloud Dream Realm. We won’t have to worry about anyone watching and discovering our true strength, nor will we have to worry about any impact on the outside world.” Ye Qing’an thought for a moment and thought the plan was feasible. She nodded and said, “It’s settled then. I’ll be waiting for you in the Cloud Dream Realm tonight. We’ll meet there and have a good fight.”
Yi Moxu chuckled: "If someone heard what you said, they might misunderstand. It's the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone together, Miss Ye, please have some self-respect!"
Ye Qing'an glared at Yi Moxu: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll just cut your throat and make sure you can never speak again."
"So fierce."
Yi Moxu joked, but didn't refuse: "Just one game is a bit boring. How about we place a bet?"
"What bet?" Ye Qing'an's eyes hardened with suspicion.
Yi Moxu was amused by Ye Qing'an's appearance: "Shouldn't there be a wager in a competition? It would be too boring without a wager. As for what kind of wager..."
Yi Moxu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment: "How about this, if you lose, you will repay me with your body? If you win, you can make a request of me, whatever it is, as long as I can do it."
"Whatever it is, as long as you can do it?" Ye Qing'an squinted and repeated Yi Moxu's words, a hint of contemplation in her eyes: "What if I asked you to die? What if I asked you to hand over the throne you worked so hard to seize?"
“Either is fine.” Yi Moxu’s smile held a sly glint. “If you want me dead, I think Qing An would definitely be reluctant. As for the throne and all that…”
“What’s mine is yours.” Yi Moxu’s gaze was intense. “So, I’ve already shown such sincerity and placed such a large bet. Miss Ye, are you willing to take a gamble with me?”
Ye Qing'an stared at Yi Moxu for a long time: "Prince Duan seems to be full of confidence that he can win?"
"I wouldn't say I'm completely confident. After all, you know, since I reached the ninth level of the Fire Separation Technique, no Supreme Being has appeared. So I really haven't had the chance to fight a Supreme Being. This is indeed an opportunity. The only reason I dare to take this gamble is because I have enough trust in you."
"I just don't know if Qing'an dares to do it?"
Ah……
Trivial skills.
Ye Qing'an sneered: "What's there to be afraid of?"
"Then it's settled!"
Yi Moxu made the final decision, as if afraid that Ye Qing'an would change her mind, and directly changed the subject: "By the way, we just met Yi Yunkui. When we return to the Ye residence, the steward or Ye Qinghao will definitely ask what we talked about with Yi Yunkui. We must tell the truth then."
"Speak." Ye Qing'an's lips curled up: "How can I not tell you something so exciting?"
Just as Ye Qing'an finished speaking, the carriage stopped.
"We've arrived," Yi Moxu said with a smile, his gaze falling on Eleven, who was sleeping soundly against Ye Qing'an. "Let me help Eleven down from the carriage."
As Yi Moxu spoke, he pulled Shiyi away from Ye Qing'an and carried her horizontally in his arms.
Seeing that Eleven was still asleep and sleeping soundly in Yi Moxu's arms, Ye Qing'an paused slightly before stepping out of the carriage.
Just as Yi Moxu had predicted, Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu entered the mansion together and saw the steward waiting behind the door.
"Young Miss, Doctor Xu is back?"
Ye Qing'an responded.
The butler lowered his voice: "Miss, please come with me to the main courtyard."
Ye Qing'an turned to look at Yi Moxu, then her gaze fell on Eleven in his arms: "Take Eleven back first, I'll be back soon."
Yi Moxu nodded: "Then I'll go back to the courtyard first. It's almost dinner time. Qing'an, is there anything you'd like to eat? I'll have someone prepare it in advance."
Ye Qing'an thought for a moment and said, "It's been cold lately, so let's ask the kitchen to make an extra hot soup to warm us up."
"it is good."
Yi Moxu agreed and left with Eleven in her arms.
The butler overheard their conversation and smiled, saying, "Miss and Doctor Xu have been apart for a few days, but their relationship seems to be getting better and better."
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes, her ears slightly flushed pink: "Although Doctor Xu has not been away from the manor for very long, so much has happened in the manor during his absence."
Hearing Ye Qing'an say this, the steward was quite moved and sighed deeply: "Yes, so much has happened in just a few days. Even now, this old servant is still a little overwhelmed."
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes and smiled: "Let's go to the main courtyard."
The person who wanted to see Ye Qing'an was indeed Ye Qinghao. Ye Qing'an entered the study, lowered her head, and said softly, "Father is not in the manor, but I always run to the study in the main courtyard. Isn't that a bit strange? Won't it arouse suspicion?"
Ye Qinghao glanced at Ye Qing'an: "I've already had the steward spread the word that you're helping with some household affairs at the Ye residence. Alright, tell me, how did your visit to the palace go today?"
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes, a hint of mockery in them.
They really are...impatient.
