Chapter 164 Hidden Sword
Jiuxiao chuckled, raised his hand, and a colorful bubble rose from his palm.
Seeing Ye Qing'an looking at him, Jiu Xiao raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of smugness: "I learned it from you. When I discovered them meeting in secret, I used a sound-stealing technique. Look, I've already recorded all those unpleasant sounds they made back then."
"..."
Seeing that Ye Qing'an was still staring at him, Jiu Xiao raised his chin slightly and said, "You don't need to thank me too much."
"No, I remember you just said that you saw them having an affair in the academy, right?"
“Yes.” Jiu Xiao nodded: “I saw it with my own eyes, and it almost blinded me. You know, Mr. Ling Jun was already over forty, and Mr. Ling Hui was over thirty… and neither of them were in very good shape…”
"It's absolutely outrageous!"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "So I want to ask you, are you an idiot?"
"Huh?" Jiuxiao looked bewildered.
Ye Qing'an sighed: "Back at Xingguo Temple, I used the sound-stealing technique because we were inside and they were outside. We could only hear the sounds, but we couldn't see what they were doing."
"Since you've already seen what they're doing, why did you only use the Eavesdropping Technique and not the Spying Technique? If you could have saved the footage, showing it to people later would have been much more convincing, wouldn't it?"
"..." Jiuxiao Wangtian: "Yes, why don't I use the Spying Technique?"
After a moment of silence, Jiuxiao continued, "Don't panic. They've been having an affair for a long time. As long as I keep an eye on them, if I can catch them once, I'll definitely catch them a second time. Next time, I can use my spying technique to seal their illicit behavior into a bubble."
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao and responded.
Ye Qinghao is probably furious about her maternal grandfather's matter and is trying to find a way to resolve it, so he's not in a big hurry.
Jiu Xiao took out another piece of paper and handed it to Ye Qing'an: "This is what Liu Xueying gave to Granny Li before. I made a new copy of it, for you..."
Ye Qing'an responded and accepted it.
Jiu Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Qing'an: "I thought you would ask me to find a way to track down these people?"
"No need," Ye Qing'an said casually. "Just keep an eye on Granny Li. Aren't they trying to find out about those people right now? As long as we keep a close eye on them, what don't we know?"
“That’s true.” Jiuxiao nodded, but quickly came to his senses: “Then if that’s the case, why did you still ask me to bring this thing over?”
Ye Qing'an pointed to the paper: "Whose handwriting is this?"
"Liu Xueying?"
“Yes, Liu Xueying…” Ye Qing’an raised an eyebrow: “These people on the list are all definitely related to my mother’s death. Liu Xueying wrote down the list herself as evidence, isn’t that good enough?”
"Such important evidence should of course be carefully preserved. Once I have collected most of the other evidence, I can present it to everyone, which will naturally be more convincing."
Jiuxiao opened his mouth, then nodded: "It seems that's true. Okay, I've learned something."
Ye Qing'an scoffed: "Learned something? Time to pay your tuition?"
"Pah." Jiu Xiao clicked his tongue and glanced at Ye Qing'an again: "I feel that your cultivation speed has been much faster than before? Recently, you have also begun to use the Sound Eavesdropping Technique and other spells very skillfully."
“Hmm.” Ye Qing’an responded, “The spiritual energy in this Cloud Dreamland is already many times more abundant than outside. In addition, I’ve been eating handfuls of pills that help with cultivation like they’re free lately, so naturally my cultivation speed will gradually increase.”
Jiuxiao responded, "But now that Ye Qinghao is watching you quite closely, if you cultivate too quickly, won't it arouse suspicion?"
Ye Qing'an didn't seem to care much: "It doesn't matter. When he asks, I'll just say I don't know. I'll just say that most people start cultivating at a young age, and children's comprehension is quite different from that of adults."
Jiuxiao nodded, but then felt a little regretful: "You told Ye Qinghao about repairing your dantian too early. Ye Qinghao is keeping such a close eye on you now. He knows everything about your every advancement. This is not good."
Ye Qing'an smiled and looked at Jiu Xiao: "What do you think is my greatest asset to Ye Qinghao?"
"Naturally, it's your Supreme Physique talent."
“That’s one reason.” Ye Qing’an pursed her lips. “Naturally, I need to let Ye Qinghao know as soon as possible that I am usable. That way, he will take me seriously. The stronger I am, the more he will value me and rely on me.”
"But as you said, in this way, my progress and my cultivation of the Xuanling Technique will fall entirely into Ye Qinghao's eyes."
“But it doesn’t matter. I will bring Ye Qinghao down from his current position before I reach the Saint level. I will take the Ye clan completely under my control.”
"But the true sword I hold in my hand is not the talent of my own Supreme Body."
Jiuxiao's eyes widened: "Isn't that right? Then what is it?"
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips: "It's the eleventh."
"Eleven?" Jiu Xiao's eyes were filled with confusion as he repeated, "Eleven?"
"Yes, it's the National Day holiday."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Eleven is also a Supreme Body, and even in Ye Qinghao's eyes, he is a Holy Spirit Body."
“But look, Ye Qinghao said before that he would find a good mentor for Eleven, and it’s been a while now, but Ye Qinghao has completely forgotten about it.”
Seeing the doubt in Jiu Xiao's eyes, Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "Eleven is too young, only four years old. Even if a four-year-old child has extremely high talent, he is still half-hearted and not very focused when cultivating. It will take a long time for him to become a skilled cultivator."
"The difference between Ye Qinghao and Ye Qinghao is one of the reasons."
"Secondly, Eleven's birth was not exactly aboveboard. The Ye family has always been a prominent and prestigious family in Wangjing. If I am truly able to shoulder the responsibility of the Ye family, Ye Qinghao might consider entrusting the Ye family to me, but he would never entrust it to Eleven."
"If Eleven's background gets out, it won't sound good."
Ye Qing'an waved his sleeves: "But Eleven's cultivation progress is not slow, it can even be described as extremely fast."
"Ye Qinghao didn't take Eleven seriously, and he wouldn't take the initiative to investigate, so naturally he wouldn't know."
"The eleventh is the sword I truly hide in my sleeve."
