Su Yi originally wanted to say that he came here to avoid Meng Yao, but then he thought twice.
This is Baicao Mountain, as Li Shiran told him. The secret of his own tribe is here. Central Region wonât be back for a while, so why not take the secret and leave Central Region.
"I know a little, but not very clearly."
Su Yiâs bright eyes shimmered, not revealing the whole truth because Li Shiran only mentioned the secret without specifying what it was and where it was located.
Meng Yao looked at Su Yiâs shimmering gaze and said softly, "Hmph, forget it if you wonât say!"
Su Yi also ignored Meng Yao, taking a breath alone, continued to circulate his vitality, letting the energy in the Void God Sea flow through every meridian. The Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique immediately filled his whole body.
Su Yiâs presence was incredibly powerful, causing Meng Yaoâs eyes to show a hint of surprise. She said, "Actually, I already know even if you donât say it. Isnât it about the secret guarded by the Li family?"
Suddenly, Su Yi opened his eyes. It seemed that this woman had more secrets than meets the eye. He looked at her and asked, "What else do you know?"
Meng Yao immediately leaned closer, her beautiful face approaching Su Yiâs, and asked, "Are you talking to me again?"
"âŠ" Su Yi remained silent.
"I will give you money, but if you try to steal the secret of the Li family from me, whether you are a woman or not, I wonât be polite!" Meng Yao declared.
Su Yi responded seriously, having accepted the bestowed body technique from Li Shiran, he naturally had to protect the secret of the Li family and not let it fall into the hands of others.
"But Iâm different, Iâm a beautiful woman!" Meng Yao slightly lamented, looking at Su Yi with sparkling eyes, a pitiful look on her face.
"That doesnât change anything!" Su Yi lightly scolded. This place was too close to the Sacred Mountain Academy, so he couldnât reveal his voice right away, lowering his voice.
With the Terrifying Star Blade in hand, even though this woman is very powerful, I have the courage to fight back.
"Iâve been entrusted by someone, Miss Meng Yao, please donât make me use force!" There was a hint of coldness in Su Yiâs eyes, and Meng Yao immediately fell silent.
But at this moment, Su Yi regretted it. Being able to command the Black Mist Underground House, its origins must be unfathomable. Now itâs tightly entangled with him, which is really troublesome.
Su Yi pondered silently. Tomorrow, the Fifth Saint Child will come to the Central Region, and Sacred Mountain Academy is so close, there is a high possibility that he will come.
At that time, the whole academy will come to welcome him, and the manpower will be loose. Itâs the perfect time for him to search the mountains.
"But I heard that besides the Saint Childâs arrival, there will also be a special ceremony at Sacred Mountain Academy tomorrow!" Meng Yao raised her eyebrows, as if she knew everything that Su Yi was thinking.
"A special ceremony?"
"Yes, maybe there will be some kind of test. The whole mountain might be filled with people from Sacred Mountain!" Meng Yao said lightly, with a teasing tone.
Su Yi was speechless. If thatâs the case, he would be in trouble at Baicao Mountain. With the arrival of the Fifth Saint Child, the whole Central Region, including the branches of Sacred Mountain, might come, and even the elders of Sacred Mountain could come.
"But you can ask me, I am much more powerful than those people!" Meng Yao once again approached Su Yi, her snow-white hands resting on his shoulders, as if she were embracing him from behind.
"Itâs impossible for me to ask you, give up on that idea. If you keep clinging to me, I wonât be polite!" Su Yi said with a frown, finding the woman in front of him completely lacking in manners, which was giving him a headache.
Su Yi was afraid that Ling Qianxue would wake up and accuse him of being a hooligan again, which he wouldnât be able to defend himself against.
It would have been better if she didnât speak, but as soon as she did, Meng Yao embraced Su Yi again, the fragrance of her lips lingering, saying, "Letâs make a bet then!"
"I refuse to believe you wonât be moved!"
Meng Yao, who had Su Yi in her embrace, had a slight blush in her eyes. She softly said to herself, tightening her hold on him, as if she hadnât held someone like this in a long time.
Su Yi immediately felt the softness of two plump and snow-white mounds pressing against his back, making his whole body feel weak as if it had turned to jelly.
In order to avoid being overwhelmed by anger, Su Yi quickly activated the Heavens Taming Incantation, calming his mind, gradually stabilizing his breathing, and no longer having any distracting thoughts.
"Alright, go ahead and tell me!"
Su Yi met a very fierce woman for the first time, who didnât show any initial charm but rather a strong temperament.
"Letâs have a competition to see who can find Liâs secret first. If I win, you have to agree to one request of mine!"
"What request?" Su Yi whispered, thinking to himself, Is this woman so fierce that she wants me to die? Should I go along with it?
"Well, at least I wonât ask you to die!"
Meng Yao gently leaned her slim waist against Su Yi as soon as they touched, resting her head lightly on his shoulder. The two of them maintained this ambiguous and enchanting atmosphere.
"Alright, what if I win?" Su Yi smirked confidently, as he had never lost a bet before.
"You donât have to pay back the one million three-star Yuan Stone!" Meng Yaoâs soft fragrance filled the air as she leaned against Su Yiâs back, as if it were her own private snowy mound.
Su Yi could feel her just by turning slightly, but he had to stay still and stiffen his body. He gruffly said, "Itâs not worth it. You have the unknown, and I have the known. Itâs not worth it. I wonât bet!"
Meng Yao lightly poked Su Yiâs back with her slender jade finger, and chuckled, "Youâre not only a little rascal, but also a clever little devil!"
"Okay, not only donât you have to pay back the money, I will also give you a special treasure. As for what treasure it is, when you come to my house in the future, I will let you choose! Just donât get dazzled by all the options!"
After saying this, Meng Yao hesitated slightly, a trace of sadness appeared on her face, and she whispered in a voice that only she could hear.
"Only allowed to pick things!"
Immediately, Meng Yao let go of her hand, her face turned red, Su Yi turned his head, sweat beads already forming on his forehead.
"Hmm⊠thatâs great!"
Su Yi silently pondered, the woman in front of him must have an extraordinary background and a prominent family. Getting a treasure would be perfect, as for losing, that word doesnât exist in Su Yiâs dictionary.
Looking at Su Yi, Meng Yaoâs pair of sparkling eyes seemed like they could see through water. After a while, she made Su Yi feel a little uncomfortable with her unwavering gaze.
"Your disguise is quite clever, but itâs too ugly. Take it off! Let me see you!" Meng Yao commanded with a hint of authority.
"So, youâre not actually called Meng Yao, right?" Su Yi smiled faintly, locking eyes with her.
"Poof!"
A smile burst onto Meng Yaoâs face, as soft and pleasant as a birdâs song.
"I knew it! I knew you would slip up and reveal such a common name that doesnât suit me at all!"
With a slight raise of her delicate nose, Meng Yao blinked her long, crescent-shaped eyelashes and gazed at Su Yi with beautiful eyes, revealing her true name.
My name is Yun Qing!
Su Yiâs expression brightened and he sincerely said, "Floating white clouds ascend high peaks, essence entering clear skies. Itâs a great name! It really suits you!"
"So, Son of Su, are you ready to remove your disguise now?" Yun Qingâs beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at Su Yi and spoke with her lips like cherry blossoms.
