A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

Chapter 295 Telepathic Sensing

Before he could answer, Xin Moling suddenly raised her eyes, her sharp gaze shooting straight at Xie Cangming.

"Even my aunt doesn't know what happened to my parents back then, so how do you know so much about it?"

"This……"

"Xie Cangming, what exactly is your identity?"

As early as the moment Yan'er came back from the dead, he had already become suspicious. Xie Cangming was able to predict that Yan'er would face a calamity when he was just over 10 years old, and he was also elusive. His mother even entrusted him with the safekeeping of her belongings. And overnight, he became the Grand Preceptor of Yuanqi. His background was completely unknown.

Xie Cangming turned his face away and pretended to smooth his white hair.

"My status is not important; what matters is Mo'er."

Xuan Yuan stared coldly at him, "Xie Cangming, you'd better explain everything clearly, or you won't be leaving here today."

"Hiss~ Xuan Yuan, aren't you being far too heartless?"

"I only want Yan'er."

Seeing the two men's sinister and terrifying eyes, Xie Cangming felt helpless once again.

"I don't have any special status; I just came here with your mother back then."

This result was a huge surprise to them, especially to Xin Moling.

"You're also from the Ancient Cang Kingdom?"

"Yes! Although I am much younger than your mother, I have some abilities that I was born with. From the moment I was born, I was destined to protect your mother. Since she chose your father, I certainly couldn't let those people find her easily. Later, when Mo'er was born, I also foresaw your parents' fate. In addition, your mother entrusted me to protect you, which is why they haven't been able to find you all these years."

"Didn't you come to the manor with your master that day?" Xin Moling was completely confused by what he said.

"What master? Look! The master is his."

Xie Cangming gestured with his lip, indicating that he should look at Feng Qingyang, who looked tired, beside him.

"After I came to Yuanqi, I became close friends with Feng Qingyang's master, despite our age difference. During the years when your mother married into the Xin family, I traveled all over the world with that old man until ten years ago when I became the national advisor of Yuanqi. Now you should understand!"

"In short, there's no need to worry too much about my identity. The most urgent thing right now is what you want to do?"

"Of course I'm looking for Yan'er, Xie Cangming. I don't care who you are, just tell me, where exactly is Yan'er?"

Xuan Yuan grew impatient; all he wanted was to find his Yan'er immediately.

"Hmm~ Mo'er is currently on her way to the Ancient Cang Kingdom, or more precisely, on the Ming Sea."

"Alright! I'll go to the Dark Sea. I must find Yan'er."

Xuan Yuan agreed without hesitation, his eyes shining with unwavering determination.

Hua Buyu thought for a moment, then plopped down on a stool, looking annoyed. "Xuanyuan, Junjing Pavilion has everything, except a boat. What are we going to do?"

Xuan Yuan's eyes narrowed. "If you don't have one, then buy one. There are plenty of fishing boats along the coast of the Minghai Sea. With my assets, surely I can afford to buy one?"

“Hey~ The Ming Sea is dangerous, and the ancient Cang Road is far away. It’s not something that a fishing boat can reach easily. Besides, even if you build a ship, how could you possibly find the traces of the ancient Cang Road so easily?”

"Grand Preceptor Xie, aren't you from the Ancient Cang Kingdom? You must remember the way, right?"

Xie Cangming's eyelids twitched. "I do remember a little, but after all, it's been over twenty years, so it will probably take some effort."

"boom!"

Xin Moling slammed the Azure Water Sword onto the table, his deep voice carrying a hint of threat.

"How much effort could it take? Xie Cangming, didn't you come here to help us find Yan'er?"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly what I came here for, alright?"

Xie Cangming's eyes grew increasingly resentful; these people were all just threatening people.

After a moment, he explained, "The Minghai Sea is boundless. Even if the ancient Cang ships were ingeniously built and the ancient Cang people were familiar with the sea and knew how to sail, it would still take at least a month to sail the Minghai Sea, let alone you ignorant fellows."

"A month? You mean Yan Yan will be adrift at sea for a month?"

Both men felt a sudden pang of unease. How could Yan'er possibly endure being alone at sea for a month?

"Xie Cangming, explain yourself clearly. What exactly do you want me to do so that I can find Yan'er as soon as possible?"

"That's not right! It wasn't you who found Mo'er, it was her brother who found Mo'er."

"What do you mean?"

Xie Cangming scoffed and stared at him with a half-smile, saying, "Xuanyuan, do you think that even the birth of those two siblings was a foregone conclusion? Even Mo'er's mother didn't dare to bring her husband back. With your status as an unmarried fiancé without any official title, if you dare to use this identity to find Mo'er in the Ancient Cang Kingdom, you'll probably be beaten to death and thrown into the sea to feed the fish."

His face immediately darkened, and an unfathomable flame flickered in his dark pupils.

"Yan'er is mine. Anyone who dares to stop us from being together, I will kill them."

"Tsk tsk tsk~ Your boastful words only apply to the four kingdoms. You have no idea about the situation in Gu Cang."

Hua Buyu craned his neck forward, his eyes full of disdain, "Then if you know anything about Gu Cang, then tell me!"

Xie Cangming: "..."

“Am I old? However, it has been more than twenty years since I last saw Gu Cang. I don’t know the state of the world now. For example, Shui Yi, I can only determine where she came from, but I don’t know which family she came from.”

Mentioning Shui Yi, Xin Moling's face turned ashen, and she felt a mix of emotions.

"Grand Preceptor Xie, can you please stop bringing up things that are hard to talk about? Xin Moling was just deceived, why do you have to reopen old wounds? Just answer her questions directly."

This was the umpteenth time Xie Cangming had been disliked today, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

“I was only ten years old when I came out. At that time, my maternal grandfather was in charge of Gu Cang. Later... I sensed that the emperor of Gu Cang changed twice.”

"Sensing what? Grand Preceptor Xie, you can even sense the leadership of the Ancient Cang Kingdom from a distance?"

Hua Buyu blinked, somewhat incredulous.

"Hmph! I've always said that some abilities are innate to me, like the ability to foresee the future, like..."

His blue eyes instantly dimmed, and Xie Cangming said nothing more.

"Since you have such foresight, what is Yan'er's current condition? The sea journey is so long, and you say that ordinary ships cannot reach her. What should we do? What do we need to prepare? How much time will it take?"

Xuan Yuan bombarded him with questions, not wanting to waste a single moment longer.

"Don't rush! There's only one way to find Mo'er now: build the strongest ship imaginable, one that can withstand raging storms, towering waves, and thunder and lightning. The Minghai Sea is extremely dangerous; my impression of that area is only general. Once we're actually out at sea, it will take anywhere from forty to fifty days to two to three months. All I can guarantee you is Mo'er's safety, and your journey..."

After listening, Xuan Yuan turned to look at Hua Buyu.

"Silence, mobilize all available manpower, hire the best craftsmen, and build the ship as quickly as possible."
