Chapter 482 I want her to see
Yi Moxu had never met such a person before. He was not afraid of him, nor would he try to get close to him. He was not truly hostile to him and did not want to kill him.
He has lived for over twenty years and experienced a great deal, meeting countless people, but there has never been anyone like Ye Qing'an who made him feel somewhat unable to understand or figure them out.
only……
Yi Moxu lowered his eyes, as if this were also an opportunity.
After all, he had known Ye Qing'an for so long, and Ye Qing'an had seen him being tormented by the Li Huo Eyes, in his most wretched state. But other things, the things he was good at, seemed to have rarely been shown to Ye Qing'an.
A few years ago, he had a period of great success in Wangjing.
However, Ye Qing'an did not get to know him at that time.
The Fire-Separating Technique and medical skills were things Ye Qing'an had seen before.
But commanding a large army, leading troops into battle, strategizing and planning...
These were things that Ye Qing'an had never seen before.
Yi Moxu lowered his eyes. It was no wonder that Ye Qing'an still didn't like him to the point of being unable to live without him.
He did indeed want Ye Qing'an to see him in his prime, to see him full of vigor, to see him strategizing and planning...
If Ye Qing'an had seen him like that, she might very well have fallen in love with him.
“Alright.” Yi Moxu nodded: “If Yi Yunkui really sends you to accompany the army to quell the rebellion, then I will return to Qian’an with you. Then we will be real opponents and show our skills.”
Ye Qing'an was even more tempted when Yi Moxu agreed.
She thought to herself, if Yi Yun Kui didn't issue an order for her to go, should she go and beg him herself?
After all, he was the Supreme Being, and he could easily find any excuse, such as wanting to test whether he could control the spiritual power in his body, or wanting to treat this rebellion as a trial.
This matter was entirely beneficial to Yi Yunkui, and he had no reason to disagree.
Yi Moxu watched Ye Qing'an's eyes darting around, his smile deepening: "But... weren't you neglected by Ye Qinghao since childhood, so you always stayed in the courtyard, bullied by the servants, and later even sent to the manor? You just told me that you wanted to compete with me in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, military strategy, and court politics?"
Yi Moxu's eyes held a questioning look: "Can you do these?"
Ye Qing'an paused, only then realizing that she was no longer some regent, but rather the daughter of the Ye family who had been bullied and oppressed and kept in seclusion.
"It is precisely because I am confined to the courtyard all day that I have enough time to read. However, I feel that theoretical knowledge is ultimately superficial, and true understanding requires practice. That is why I wanted to practice on the renowned Prince Duan."
Yi Moxu chuckled: "In public, he's Doctor Xu; when he's joking around, he's Prince Duan; when he's angry, he's Yi Moxu..."
Ye Qing'an blinked, understanding that Yi Moxu was referring to how she addressed him, but turned her head away without saying a word.
"However, I still feel that these titles are a bit too unfamiliar. Perhaps Miss Ye could suggest a few nicer ones?"
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes. Does this person not know what it means to push one's luck?
"Then, Your Highness, what kind of title do you think would be more pleasant to hear?"
Yi Moxu's eyebrows twitched: "Let's remove the surname. I don't really like this surname."
Ye Qing'an looked up at Yi Moxu. If you remove the surname, then it's... Moxu?
Ye Qing'an felt a tremor run through her body. Although it was just a matter of missing a surname, for some reason, she inexplicably felt that they had suddenly become much closer.
"Heh..." Ye Qing'an raised his head: "After all, we're going to be rivals, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Ye Qing'an stood up, intending to go into the library to find some books to study the law, when she saw Ling Yu walking towards her with something in her hand.
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow and stopped in her tracks: "Ling Yu? What's wrong?"
Ling Yu held a white jade bottle in her hand: "These are the pills I recently refined. They can help you guide the spiritual energy in your body. They are even slightly better than the previous pills. If you want to cultivate, you can take some pills first and then start cultivating."
Ye Qing'an took the pill from Ling Yu's hand: "Thank you."
Lingyu smiled shyly, lowered her head, and turned back to the medicinal herb field.
Yi Moxu squinted at the direction Ling Yu had left in: "I've always wanted to ask, does this illusion also change as your cultivation level increases, with new people or things appearing?"
"Ah."
Yi Moxu could see all the changes in the illusion as she went in and out of it, so she had no need to hide anything.
“No wonder.” Yi Moxu narrowed his eyes: “No wonder you were able to make such rapid progress in spiritual power in such a short time, and your spells are so skillful.”
This wasn't because of the illusion itself, but because she was very familiar with those spells from her previous life.
However, she couldn't tell Yi Moxu about this, and only vaguely replied, "Mm."
"But..." Yi Moxu's gaze fell on this dreamlike cloud realm: "I feel that I have read quite a few books, but among all those books, there is not a single one that records anything about this illusion. How did you enter this illusion?"
Ye Qing'an blinked, her mind racing: "This story begins when I was still at the manor. It was a snowy winter day, and since we didn't have any firewood at home, I waited for the snow to stop so I could go up the mountain to collect some dry firewood. As a result, I found a snake that was hibernating on the mountain."
Yi Moxu narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Qing'an: "So, the snake you're talking about is your spirit beast?"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Yes, at that time, I thought he was a snake. Because the place where he hibernated was quite conspicuous, I was worried that he would be taken away by hunters who came up the mountain to make snake soup, so I brought him home. Later, after he woke up, he said that I had lifted his seal and insisted on forming a spirit beast contract with me. After forming a spirit beast contract with him, I inexplicably ended up here."
"Then he told me that he was actually the guardian of this illusion. I formed a spirit beast contract with him, and the illusion was unsealed. From then on, it belonged to me."
Yi Moxu felt inexplicably familiar with this story, as if... when Ye Qinghao asked her how she repaired her dantian and meridians, the story she told was similar.
She said she saved him on the mountain, so to repay her, he repaired her dantian and veins.
But in fact, he didn't know her at all before.
