Chapter 622 I need to repay him properly
“He has no reason to lie.” Yi Moxu rubbed his fingers lightly in his sleeve. “Although he was imprisoned by Ye Qinghao for ten years, the things that have happened in the last ten years are enough to make him understand that even after ten years, there are still many people who have not given up looking for him.”
"Ten years ago, he still had his own power. Ten years later, he can be said to have almost nothing."
"He is now in my hands, which is a form of protection for him. And if he wants Yi Yun Kui and Ye Qing Hao to live, his best option is to stay with me."
"He was unwilling to tell us everything at once, simply because he was afraid that once he told us everything, he would lose his usefulness and I would throw him away."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "That's true."
Yi Moxu raised his hand and ruffled Ye Qing'an's hair: "Don't worry, after he rests for a while, I will have a detailed talk with him."
"He now only has two choices: either stay with me and work for me, in which case I will naturally give him the corresponding reward, or..."
Yi Moxu's lips curled up slightly. Although he seemed to be smiling, his smile carried a hint of cruelty: "The only option is... death."
"Tsk..." Ye Qing'an chuckled softly, "Alright then."
"I've met the people and heard the stories, now I'm going back to Cloud Dreamland."
Just as Ye Qing'an was about to leave, she heard a sudden roar outside, as if...
"Beast?"
Yi Moxu heard it too, his brows furrowed slightly, but he remained silent.
"Could it be that the Forest-Suppressing Divine Beast has found its way here?" Ye Qing'an frowned. "Let's go take a look."
As soon as Ye Qing'an finished speaking, she saw Yi Moxu looking at her.
"I'll just stay inside and look around; I won't go out."
"You stay here." After saying that, Yi Moxu disappeared in a flash.
"..."
So you're just taking advantage of the fact that she can't use her spiritual power right now?
The roars of beasts outside grew louder and louder. Ye Qing'an listened intently, but vaguely felt that she had heard the sound somewhere before.
And it didn't sound like the beast that guards the forest.
But where have I heard this before?
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes and thought carefully. After a while, she still couldn't remember. Then Yu Jie came: "Miss Ye? Is Miss Ye the only one here? Where is the Lord?"
"He went out on business. Has Gu Duo settled in?"
"Yes, everything is settled."
Ye Qing'an nodded, but a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
She remembered!
She knew where she had heard that sound before.
It's the Gu residence!
Water Kirin!
Gu Duo's spirit beast, the water unicorn.
Ye Qing'an suddenly realized that it made sense. The reason why the water unicorn's spiritual power had weakened and it was even confused before was because it was affected by Gu Duo's missing soul. Now that Gu Duo's missing soul had merged with its own soul, the water unicorn should have returned to normal.
Now that the water unicorn has recovered, it seems only natural that it would come looking for its master.
Ye Qing'an did not misunderstand. Soon after, Yi Moxu returned, and indeed, he was followed by the water unicorn.
"That's exactly what it is."
Yi Moxu raised an eyebrow: "You guessed it? You've seen it before?"
"I had the honor of meeting you at the Gu residence before. The Gu family set up an illusion and used the water unicorn to try and deal with me."
As for the outcome, Ye Qing'an didn't say, but Yi Moxu understood.
Ye Qing'an stepped forward and circled the water unicorn: "So quickly, it has come to recognize its master?"
The water unicorn looked at Ye Qing'an, sniffed at her, and seemed to be very familiar with her scent. It then nuzzled against her affectionately and let out a soft hum.
"Haha..." Ye Qing'an laughed out loud: "This water unicorn seems to be much smarter than Jiu Xiao. Tsk, why are all the smart ones other people's spirit beasts? Mine is just a stupid thing."
"Perhaps it's because spirit beasts follow their masters."
Jiuxiao's mournful voice drifted in from the side.
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "Why are you here?"
"Give me back my reason for being here!" Jiu Xiao jumped up and down. "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have heard you talking bad about me. Tell me, woman, do you even have a heart? Huh? Do you even have a heart?"
"I've been diligently keeping an eye on things outside for you, and you're here complaining that I'm not as smart as other people's spirit beasts! I'm so angry, so angry!"
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow but did not offer any comfort: "If you throw a tantrum here and delay important matters, it won't just be a matter of me scolding you a couple of times."
Jiuxiao gritted his teeth: "Eleven almost got into trouble just now."
Ye Qing'an's smile vanished completely: "What happened?"
"It must be that someone infiltrated the mansion, disguised themselves as a servant in Eleven's courtyard, and then, under the cover of night, quietly sneaked into Eleven's room, intending to harm Eleven."
"She had already wrapped Eleven in a blanket and taken her out, but she probably thought Eleven was just a child and didn't take it too seriously, so she didn't drug Eleven."
"Eleven woke up quickly, and then pretended that nothing had happened. He was secretly taken away from the mansion by that person and put into a carriage."
"Later, I found an opportunity to return to the Cloud Dreamland during the National Day holiday..."
Ye Qing'an's face turned extremely ugly, and he immediately disappeared from the spot.
Upon returning to the Cloud Dreamland, Ye Qing'an saw Eleven sitting beside the Spirit Spring, eating some snacks that she had somehow acquired.
Upon seeing Ye Qing'an, Eleven quickly stood up and spun around in front of her, saying, "I'm fine, really fine, Mother, don't worry. Actually, I had a feeling when that person came in, but I didn't think it was too dangerous, so I just pretended to be asleep."
Eleven winked at Ye Qing'an: "I remember everything Mother taught me. There really is no danger, which is why I didn't return to the Cloud Dreamland immediately."
"Look, Mother, I even secretly stole a plate of snacks from the carriage."
Ye Qing'an took a deep breath. Seeing Eleven's calm and collected demeanor, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Eleven patted the stone next to him, gesturing for Ye Qing'an to sit down.
Ye Qing'an sat down next to Eleven, and Eleven said, "That woman didn't say much along the way. But when the carriage stopped, she gave an order to that person to use the Xuanling technique to send a message to the camp, telling the Grand Tutor that the person he wanted had been brought out."
"Grand Tutor?"
Suddenly, Yi Moxu's voice came from behind. Ye Qing'an turned around and saw Yi Moxu with cold eyes and icy expression: "Fine, I'll remember this. Since he went to such lengths, I should repay him properly..."
