Chapter 511 Just give it a try
Ye Qing'an nodded: "I've always felt something was strange. Although the Water Qilin's spiritual power has decreased, judging from the strength of the Water Qilin I saw in the illusion, it would be an easy thing for the Water Qilin to leave the Gu family."
"He could have left, but he didn't. Instead, he endured the humiliation from the Gu family, staying there for nearly ten years, day after day. There must have been a reason for that..."
Jiu Xiao frowned and remained silent, but he was thinking about what Ye Qing'an had said.
is it?
"So I speculate that the Water Kirin stays in the Gu residence to protect something." Ye Qing'an casually put away the Wildfire Whip: "What else could it be that could make him protect it so devoutly, besides Gu Duo's missing soul?"
"But why would the Gu family extract Gu Duo's soul? Who in the Gu family did it? Could it be Gu Hai? But Gu Hai is already dead..."
Seeing that Jiu Xiao's curiosity had been piqued, Ye Qing'an smiled slightly and said, "If you want to know these things, it's easy. Just ask the Water Qilin."
Jiuxiao was freed from his restraints, but his brows remained furrowed, his mind a jumble. He simply walked to a nearby rock and sat down: "It's not that I don't want to ask the Water Qilin, I just feel..."
"I just felt a little awkward. I felt like asking this question was like gloating or rubbing salt into someone's wounds."
“Besides… Shui Qilin is definitely more awkward than me. He’s always been very arrogant…” Jiu Xiao sighed, somewhat annoyed, and just held his head and rubbed his hair: “I don’t think he would want to tell me those things, nor would he want my help.”
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Jiuxiao held his head in silence for a while before letting out a soft sigh: "Alright, alright, I'll give it a try, I'll give it a try."
As Jiu Xiao spoke, he stood up and paced around anxiously for a few moments: "But how should I say it?"
"There's no need to be too deliberate. Just say what you need to say. You've known him for so long, so just tell him that Gu Duo is in our hands now and is doing well. He's just confused because his soul is missing, so we want to find his true soul for him."
"If you really feel awkward, you can just say so. Just say that I want to get some information from Gu Duo, and that I asked you to go."
Jiuxiao nodded: "Okay, I'll go take a look."
Jiuxiao disappeared from the Dreamland of Clouds. Ye Qing'an's lips curved into a smile, and a dark glint flashed in her eyes.
As dawn broke, Ye Qing'an could no longer linger in the Cloud Dream Realm and left.
After breakfast, Ye Qing'an stayed in the room reading, while the servants in the courtyard helped her tidy up her things.
Granny Wei brought over some clothes: "If we leave now, by the time we get to the vicinity of Qian'an, it will probably be the dead of winter. Qian'an is colder than here, so make sure you bring enough warm clothes, lest you catch a cold."
“Miss has only been back in the manor for a few years and doesn’t have any of the thick clothes left over from last year; they’re all newly made. But it’s still early, and there are only a few new thick clothes made this year. It’s probably too late to make more now. I’ll go and discuss this with Sixth Aunt later, and ask her to send someone to the manor to have a well-known tailor shop in the city send over some winter clothes for Miss to choose from.”
Ye Qing'an replied, "We don't need too much. We'll be passing through many cities along the way, so we can buy more if we really need more."
"It's better to be prepared," replied Granny Wei.
"Oh, right." Granny Wei suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Miss, will you be taking the young master with you on this expedition?"
Ye Qing'an paused slightly as she turned the pages of her book. After a long while, she gently shook her head: "I won't go on the eleventh. After all, it involves military campaigns and is too dangerous. Let's stay at home."
Wei Mama replied, "To stay in the manor? That's fine. Although Liu Xueying is dead, the eldest young master and the second young lady are still alive. The master has also run into trouble and is still missing. I'm afraid that if the eldest young master and the second young lady want to harm the eleventh young master, we won't be able to protect him."
Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll make arrangements when the time comes."
Upon hearing Ye Qing'an's words, Granny Wei couldn't help but glance at her, as if she had her own plans.
She's already leaving the Ye residence, so how can she possibly manage things there? After all, it's harder to get help from someone so far away...
Ye Qing'an clearly understood what Wei Mama was thinking, but she didn't explain. She just chuckled softly and said, "You'll find out when the time comes."
Granny Wei could only nod, pack her things, and leave.
As soon as Granny Wei left, Jiu Xiao suddenly appeared in the room: "Aren't you taking Eleven with you? Leaving Eleven at the Ye residence?"
"Mm." Ye Qing'an nodded.
"Are you crazy?" Jiu Xiao's eyes widened. "Don't you know what kind of place this Ye Mansion is? If you leave Eleven here, it'll be like being surrounded by wolves..."
"Ye Qinghao should be back soon."
Jiu Xiao was taken aback by Ye Qing'an's interruption, but quickly recovered: "So what if Ye Qinghao is back? Can he still protect Eleven for you?"
“Of course I can.” Ye Qing’an curled the corners of her lips. “Ye Qinghao is still counting on me. He’s pinning his hopes on me, hoping that I can bring a different turnaround to the Ye family. He wants to keep Eleven under his control so that he can control me and prevent anything from happening to Eleven.”
“And…” Ye Qing’an narrowed his eyes, a strange light in them: “I’ve said before that Eleven is my real killing move.”
"Eleven?" Jiuxiao looked bewildered. "Is that your ultimate weapon?"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Although Eleven is young, in fact, his Xuanling power has improved rapidly in the past few months, and no one knows or has thought of it."
“They all think that Eleven is just a tiny kid and don’t take him seriously at all. But they don’t know that a child can accomplish a lot.” Ye Qing’an casually poured herself a cup of tea. “In addition, there’s the Cloud Dream Realm to help. With the Cloud Dream Realm around, Eleven will be fine.”
Ye Qing'an picked up her teacup and gently raised her eyes...
It was just an ordinary glance, but Jiu Xiao suddenly felt that Ye Qing'an's eyes seemed to hold the whole world, and he had a sense of commanding the world.
"In fact, after I became a Supreme Being, more and more people started watching me. It was fine when I was in Wangjing City, but once I left Wangjing City, those who wanted to harm me became even more eager. And outside, even if I am a Supreme Being, even if I have the Fire Radiance Pavilion, the more people around me there are, the more hidden dangers there are, and there will be many times when I cannot guard against them."
"At that point, it will be even more dangerous for Eleven to stay by my side."
Jiuxiao thought for a moment and then nodded: "That's true, but I'm worried that Eleven is too young."
As soon as Jiuxiao finished speaking, Eleven's voice came from the doorway: "Don't worry about me. A real man should be independent and strong. I can't stay in comfort forever; that will only spoil me. I don't want to be raised like Ye Feiran. I should put myself in danger to train myself into a wolf."
