Chapter 286 Inquiring about Ye Xishui's information
"Old Master Xuan, look how greasy that chicken leg bone looks in your hand, right? Put it down first!" Ye Nanxiao moved his buttocks away from Old Master Xuan.
Without further ado, Elder Xuan raised the chicken leg bone.
"Wait! Calm down! The whole thing started with this exchange student!" Ye Nanxiao covered his head and lay face down on the table to avoid the chicken leg bone that Elder Xuan threw.
"Exchange students? They must be Jing Hongchen's grandsons," Old Master Mu said gently.
"That old scoundrel's grandsons? Meng Hongchen?" Elder Xuan asked, recalling the list of exchange students.
Ye Nanxiao nodded. "Meng Hongchen's martial soul problem has resulted in a peculiar ice poison within her body, but Meng Hongchen cannot perfectly control this power, so she needs the ultimate ice to help her balance the ice poison within her body!"
"It just so happens that you are the ultimate ice, and Jing Hongchen's granddaughter happens to be interested in you, so they asked you to become their live-in son-in-law?" Elder Xuan asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Bing Gou!" Ye Nanxiao snapped his fingers and nodded, "That's the purple eye."
Elder Xuan looked Ye Nanxiao up and down a few times, and muttered, "There's nothing good about him. That old scoundrel Jing Hongchen's taste is getting worse every year."
"Elder Xuan, I heard you!" Ye Nanxiao said expressionlessly.
Elder Xuan clicked his tongue and slowly drank from the wine jug.
"If we come to your door, at least the rare metals you've been longing for will be secured, hahaha," Old Mu laughed.
"How could a great fox bow down for five bushels of rare metals!" Ye Nanxiao said righteously.
Elder Xuan glanced at Ye Nanxiao, but for the sake of the fine wine in the flask, he didn't expose Ye Nanxiao.
Not bowing down for rare metals? Why does Qian Duoduo run away the moment he sees you now?
"Alright, I can guess what you're up to, but it's always best to be careful. You're in Mingdu now, so even if the academy wanted to help, it wouldn't be able to reach you, especially since that's Xu Tianran's territory," Elder Mu advised.
"Then I'll leave the details of those two experimental studies to you, Nanxiao, to write a report."
Ye Nanxiao nodded. If it were him, he could probably brag about it for days.
Elder Mu glanced at the group of elders from the Soul Guidance Department and said, "Well then, let's disperse for now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the figures of the group of elders vanished from their spot.
Only Elder Mu, Elder Xuan, and Ye Nanxiao remained.
Ye Nanxiao did not immediately stand up to bow, but remained seated.
"You have something on your mind that you want to ask this old man, right?" Old Mu said with a smile.
"Is it that obvious?" Ye Nanxiao asked. He wasn't exactly an expert at managing his expressions, but he also didn't wear his emotions on his sleeve.
Old Master Mu stretched out his hand, pointed to his heart, and said, "I can sense that there is something you are eager to ask me."
Faint golden light spots fell from the golden tree and landed on Elder Mu.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the golden specks of light falling from above. "Is that the Golden Tree?"
Thinking of the Holy Spirit Cult, Ye Nanxiao's expression turned serious. He wondered if Elder Mu would tell him about it.
"Does Elder Mu know anything about the high-ranking figures of the Holy Spirit Cult?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Upon hearing the words "Holy Spirit Cult," Elder Xuan's gaze suddenly sharpened, and a faint yet astonishing aura appeared around him.
Old Mu's smile faded, and he sighed softly.
"You've encountered another evil spirit master?" Elder Xuan asked.
"To be precise, we found a branch of the evil spirit masters' cult, and a whole bunch of evil spirit masters," Ye Nanxiao said.
"Which high-ranking member of the Holy Spirit Cult did you meet? Xie Feng?" Elder Mu asked.
"It's not just the Evil Phoenix," Ye Nanxiao said.
Elder Mu glanced at Elder Xuan, and then a power spread out from Elder Mu's body, with pale golden soul power connecting to the Golden Tree.
The golden tree emitted a faint golden light, and from the outside, it looked no different from usual, but Ye Nanxiao found himself in a sea of gold.
Ye Nanxiao reached out and touched the sea beneath his feet, only to find that the water had just submerged his ankles before being held up by a gentle force.
Towering golden pillars rise from the sea, each adorned with a golden dragon coiled around its shaft.
A handsome young man in light purple robes was sitting cross-legged on the sea in front of Ye Nanxiao.
"This is the realm I comprehended with the help of the Golden Tree," Elder Mu said with a gentle smile.
"If you want to know about the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, or even someone at a higher level, then have you met Xi Shui?" Elder Mu asked.
"A domain?" Ye Nanxiao looked at the transparent sea beneath his feet and reached out to touch the seawater.
A warm, moist sensation came from my hands, accompanied by a refreshing feeling.
"Ye Xishui, the Supreme Leader of the Holy Spirit Sect, and Long Xiaoyao, who has always been inseparable from Ye Xishui, what can you tell me about these two?" Ye Nanxiao asked bluntly.
Old Master Mu sighed heavily, his face full of worry, staring at Ye Nanxiao without saying a word.
Ye Nanxiao allowed Elder Mu to keep an eye on him.
"Xi Shui's martial soul is the Blood Demon Puppet. She had already reached the Limit Douluo realm many years ago. I used to think I knew Xi Shui well, but after our falling out, I realized that I knew nothing about her. Xi Shui is stubborn and somewhat crazy. She can stop at nothing to achieve her goals. As for Long Xiaoyao, his martial soul is the Dark Sacred Dragon, which is the ultimate darkness. He is extremely powerful and also reached the Limit Douluo realm early on. He has a full set of soul bones." A trace of reminiscence flashed in Elder Mu's eyes.
Ye Nanxiao listened quietly, extracting all the information from Elder Mu's words.
"Have you ever considered that Ye Xishui approached you two with the intention of causing you to break up and become enemies?" Ye Nanxiao said. He remembered that Ye Xishui approached Mu En and Long Xiaoyao with a purpose.
Old Mu gave a wry smile and nodded.
Although a long time has passed since what happened back then, Mu En, who became the head of the Sea God Pavilion, must have a very simple mind.
Moreover, Ye Nanxiao remembered that Ye Xishui was the only woman who had ever entered Mu En's heart.
Mentioning Ye Xishui, Old Mu's face showed deep nostalgia, clearly indicating that he had not forgotten Ye Xishui.
"The absurdity of those years is full of regrets," Old Mu sighed heavily.
Ye Nanxiao took a small notebook and wrote down all the important points.
"Xi Shui's greatest strength is not combat, nor soul tools, but scheming, mad scheming, even at the cost of using herself as a pawn! Nan Xiao, I do not wish for you to face Xi Shui before you have fully developed your power." Elder Mu gave Ye Nan Xiao a deep look before closing his domain.
The hall that had been expanded from inside the Golden Tree came back into Ye Nanxiao's view, and Elder Xuan was still holding the wine pot.
Glancing at the clock on the wall, Ye Nanxiao realized that he had been talking in Elder Mu's domain for quite some time, while less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea had passed outside.
Ye Nanxiao smiled and bowed to Elder Mu and Elder Xuan before leaving.
"Elder Mu, did you tell him?" Elder Xuan asked, putting down the wine pot.
Old Master Mu nodded, smiling wryly, "Even if I didn't say anything, Nanxiao would have been able to find out. Nanxiao is too clever. Traditional rules are just a cage that temporarily binds him. He is destined to fly to a wider sky and establish new rules!"
Looking out at Poseidon Lake, Old Mu sighed, "Nanxiao is like her in some ways, but fortunately, he's not stubborn or crazy!"
"Isn't that a bit extreme?" Elder Xuan glanced at Qian Duoduo's seat and took a swig of wine.
I don't think that's considered paranoia.
Ye Nanxiao stepped onto the lake and slowly walked back to the opposite bank, constantly thinking of a way to deal with the situation.
"Ye Xishui is the ultimate boss. If you want to deal with the Xishui Alliance, you can't avoid Ye Xishui. The one reflected by that broken flag last time should be her."
"It's best not to bring this flag back to Mingdu, lest it be sensed by the Holy Spirit Cult." Ye Nanxiao thought of the Holy Spirit Flag that he had frozen and decided to leave it at Shrek Academy.
With Elder Mu protecting it, Shrek Academy is a safe place.
As Ye Nanxiao walked to the shore, he immediately spotted a beautiful figure on the bank.
A faint spatial fluctuation arose around them, and the next moment, Jiang Nannan appeared beside Ye Nanxiao and threw herself into his arms.
"Are you waiting for me?" Ye Nanxiao reached out and ruffled Jiang Nannan's hair.
"No! I'm just taking a walk!" one of the rabbits stubbornly insisted.
"Then I'll take a walk with you." Ye Nanxiao took Jiang Nannan's small hand, and their fingers naturally intertwined.
"No foot pain excuses today!" Jiang Nannan said with a smile.
"My feet don't hurt, but they're numb. Nan Nan, can you carry me?"
"Then I'll leave you here and go explore the food street by myself!"
"Waaaaah~"
Shrek City.
"Boss, give me a super big cotton candy!" Jiang Nannan said, pointing to the cotton candy picture at the top of the sign.
"Can you finish it, Nan Nan?" Ye Nanxiao asked worriedly, looking at the cotton candy that was twice the size of his head.
"Alright, little girl, here you go." The cotton candy vendor's lips twitched slightly as he looked at the snack bags hanging all over Ye Nanxiao's body.
"Thank you, boss!" Jiang Nannan reached out and took the cotton candy, taking a small bite.
After turning a corner, Jiang Nannan shoved the enormous cotton candy into Ye Nanxiao's hand and rushed towards a dessert stall, shouting, "They have sugar paintings!"
Ye Nanxiao held a cotton candy between one finger of each hand and walked around unsteadily; the size of the cotton candy obscured his view.
Looking at the cotton candy, Ye Nanxiao opened his mouth wide and stuffed the entire cotton candy into his mouth.
After chewing a few mouthfuls with difficulty, Ye Nanxiao swallowed the food and quickly searched for Jiang Nannan.
At the sugar painting stall, Jiang Nannan took the finished sugar painting with one hand and was about to turn around to look for Ye Nanxiao.
"Hello, senior. I'm also a student at Shrek Academy. It's fate that we've met. Why don't we get to know each other?"
Three tall, handsome male students walked up to Jiang Nannan and said...
Jiang Nannan turned to look at the three of them, then shook her head and said, "There's no need for us to get to know each other."
Seeing that the beauty was about to leave, the leading student stepped forward, walked up to Jiang Nannan, extended his hand, and said, "Senior, don't be so cold. Making more friends isn't necessarily a bad thing!"
