Chapter 105 - 10: Do You Truly Understand That Talent? Give It to Me

Qi Yuanliang!

Ye Liuyun immediately thought of the Southern Garrison Commander’s Office’s Qi Yuanliang.

At the moment, it seemed like he had many enemies.

But when it came to seeking vengeance from the Illusion Sound Sect, it should be the mage. It’s been a long time since there was any movement from Lord Thousand Households.

Recalling the conflict he recently had with Qi Yuanliang, Ye Liuyun immediately considered him the most likely candidate to arrange for someone to track him.

After all.

Yesterday, he had demonstrated a momentary wave of Innate Perfection inner strength in front of Qi Yuanliang.

Could it be that his cultivation was getting out of control?

Ye Liuyun chuckled inwardly.

He naturally withdrew his gaze, not intending to expose it, and was content to let them follow him.

Just as well, he was quite fond of this purple-grade Concealing Breath talent possessed by the so-called Shadow.

Do you know how to use it? Give it to me!

"Did he just discover me?"

After Ye Liuyun resumed his journey, the Shadow finally moved, continuing to follow.

However.

Recalling how Ye Liuyun’s gaze lingered here for a moment before quickly retracting, the Shadow couldn’t help but feel that he might have been spotted.

"No! Impossible!"

But, as soon as this thought emerged.

The Shadow shook his head to deny it.

How could it be? He knew his own concealment abilities well.

Even if the other party was an Innate Perfection martial artist, it’s impossible for them to detect anything so easily.

It must just be that guy’s intuition being particularly keen!

With this rationalization, the Shadow relaxed a lot.

After all, mastering Concealing Breath had always been his point of pride; if he was so easily discovered, it would be hard for him to accept such a reality.

...

When Ye Liuyun returned to the mansion.

Xing’Er routinely waited for Ye Liuyun’s return, naturally helping him into his outer robe.

"Master!"

Once Ye Liuyun changed into his home attire, Xing’Er softly spoke.

"Earlier a girl who calls herself Lv Lan came by, claiming to be an acquaintance of yours, and is waiting in the courtyard for you."

"Lv Lan?"

He was momentarily stunned.

After realizing the other’s reason for coming at this time, Ye Liuyun found it unsurprising.

He just felt a bit amused.

Looks like this Lv Lan finally learned to use the front door, unlike the past when he’d only climb over walls.

"Alright, I understand."

"Then I’ll instruct someone to heat some water, so that later you can soak in a bath, and I’ll give you a shoulder massage."

Seeing Xing’Er’s obedient and prudent demeanor, Ye Liuyun didn’t stop her, simply nodding as he watched her leave.

Then he strode briskly toward the courtyard.

Sure enough.

Ye Liuyun soon saw Lv Lan, sipping tea and waiting under the courtyard.

"Why seek me at this time?"

Though he mostly guessed Lv Lan’s purpose, Ye Liuyun still feigned curiosity inquiring further.

Lv Lan first shook his head before speaking softly.

"The Emperor sent me to tell you that the position of Lord Thousand Households wasn’t meant as a game by the Emperor but was a unilateral decision by the Southern Governor. Please don’t be upset!"

Seeing Lv Lan’s serious expression as he finished.

Ye Liuyun couldn’t suppress a smile.

"Rest assured, I understand that grievances have rightful owners and won’t unjustly vent on others!"

If it’s someone’s fault, it’s solely their mistake; Ye Liuyun wouldn’t ineptly misplace his anger onto others.

Yan Shuzhu had done all he could.

His subordinates were disobedient, and Yan Shuzhu couldn’t control even if he wished.

"Good!"

Although Lv Lan knew that given Ye Liuyun’s character, he wouldn’t lash out at Yan Shuzhu for such things.

But seeing Ye Liuyun look so composed, Lv Lan felt somewhat relieved.

"Don’t worry!"

Yet, recalling something, Lv Lan promptly declared.

"I’ll find a way to deal with Qi Yuanliang!"

No matter what, Qi Yuanliang’s actions amounted to a challenge against imperial authority, not something to overlook.

"Dealing with that is pointless. Do you believe someone would dare act thus without confidence?"

Ye Liuyun found it amusing as he looked at Lv Lan.

It seems Lv Lan didn’t realize Qi Yuanliang’s disguise.

"Hmm?"

Indeed, hearing this, Lv Lan frowned oddly.

Earlier, Lv Lan assumed Qi Yuanliang was bold due to some backing, with influences behind him emboldening his actions.

But judging by Ye Liuyun’s current stance, it didn’t seem that way!

"Qi Yuanliang is an Innate Perfection level martial artist, with your strength, if care isn’t taken, you might fall victim!"

Ye Liuyun thought.

He felt it necessary to issue a warning.

If Lv Lan really goes ahead and confronts Qi Yuanliang, it might end up disastrously.

"Innate Perfection!"

Upon hearing this, Lv Lan was startled.

He didn’t doubt Ye Liuyun’s words.

Quite the opposite, Lv Lan trusted that Ye Liuyun wouldn’t joke about such matters, which was why he was so shocked.

He hadn’t expected Qi Yuanliang to be hidden so deeply.

Everyone assumed Southern Governor Qi Yuanliang was a Postnatal martial artist, yet he was an Innate Perfection existence; had it not been for Ye Liuyun’s warning, venturing directly for trouble might have ended terribly.

"Thank you!"

Considering this.

Lv Lan expressed gratitude to Ye Liuyun.

To this, Ye Liuyun merely waved his hand, thinking little of it.
