As soon as he opened it, a dark silver pearl the size of a palm appeared in the box. It emitted a dense spiritual energy and carried a fresh natural fragrance.
"Dark Spirit Bead?"
The few people present immediately recognized the origin of this pearl.
Zhuang Yi said bitterly, "You should all know that the Dark Moon City only organizes cultivators to go to the sea every five years to gather all kinds of precious cultivation materials.
This Dark Spirit Bead could only be produced in the sea near the Dark Moon City.
After I left the Imperial City, I first went to the Dark Moon City. At the cultivator gathering, I found this Dark Spirit Bead.
The spiritual energy of the Dark Spirit Bead could calm the mind, help one enter a meditative state, refine it into a pill, and also have the effect of maintaining one's appearance.
I just want to prepare a New Year's gift for Qinglan. Is that a sin? "
Ye Huangtu and Ji Suxin immediately fell silent. Calculating the time, it was indeed the year that the Dark Moon City cultivators entered the sea to search for treasures.
Feng Qinglan's eyes also showed a trace of emotion. Looking at Zhuang Yi's face that was filled with grievance and indignation, he felt guilty in his heart.
"Since Zhuang Yi has made it clear, then don't take it to heart.
"After all, Ye Xiu was also killed by a mysterious expert last night. With these two things happening at the same time, the clan elders are also very nervous." Feng Qinglan sighed.
"What?!" Ye Xiu is dead? "Zhuang Yi suddenly raised his head, his expression also becoming heavier.
"That's right, we don't know if it was the Huaxu Clan who did all of this in secret.
"My brother of so many years has left, and I can't accept it for a moment. I hope Zhuang Yi doesn't blame us." Ye Huangtu's eyes revealed a trace of sadness.
Zhuang Yi's expression also eased up a bit, "Even Ye Xiu is dead, I can understand why you guys are in such a hurry to find me.
However, I am the vice principal of the Xuanyuan Academy, how could I possibly have anything to do with the Huaxu Clan?
"" It seems like we have indeed misunderstood you. Then we'll be leaving first. "Ye Huangtu pulled his wife and the couple walked out.
In the living room, only Feng Qinglan and Zhuang Yi were left.
Feng Qinglan hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't know how to comfort her. He could only say, "Zhuang Yi, I am only fulfilling the responsibility of the Enforcement Elder. I hope you understand."
Zhuang Yi smiled bitterly, "No matter what you do, I won't hate you. However, Qinglan, can you accept this gift?"
Feng Qinglan looked at the Dark Spirit Bead that was handed over and could not bear to see it. Finally, he nodded, "Alright, then I'll accept it. Thank you."
Zhuang Yi's face was full of joy. "Alright, alright, there's no need to thank me. I'll be happy if you accept it!
By the way, I haven't invited you to have a seat. I'll go make some tea for you! "
"There's no need, Zhuang Yi. I need to report to the Great Elder.
"Since you have nothing to do with this matter, then we also need to investigate other suspicious people." After Feng Qinglan finished speaking, he nodded and turned around to leave.
Zhuang Yi's face was filled with disappointment and helplessness as he sent Feng Qinglan all the way to the door.
Watching the woman's back gradually disappear into the distance, Zhuang Yi's expression gradually became complicated and gloomy.
He walked back to the courtyard, had the servants close the door, and walked all the way back to his study.
In the study, there was already a figure sitting behind the desk, leisurely holding a scroll.
This person was dressed in a long gray robe and had shoulder-length black hair. He wore a white mask with a smiling face, and it was impossible to tell his age or appearance.
When Zhuang Yi saw this person, his face carried a trace of apprehension as he said, "Why did you kill Ye Xiu? Just because he failed? "
"If I were to say that we didn't kill Ye Xiu, would you believe me?" The smiling man said with a magnetic voice.
Zhuang Yi frowned, "Really?"
"What good will it do us to kill Ye Xiu?" The smiling man asked.
Zhuang Yi thought about it carefully and nodded his head. However, he asked curiously, "Then who killed Ye Xiu?"
The smiling man finally turned his head to look at him, "I came to find you to let you find the answer."
On the way back, Ji Susu held Ye Huangtu's arm and muttered to herself as she walked.
"Master, why are you in such a hurry to come out? Just because you have a Dark Spirit Bead doesn't mean that Zhuang Yi went to Dark Moon City in the past two days. Maybe he already had it before?" Ji Susu shook her head.
Ye Huangtu sighed, "Madam, that's enough. When we were young, Zhuang Yi went through life and death with us. I trust him. "
"How many years has it been? Besides, isn't it because of what happened when we were young that Zhuang Yi hates you to death?" Ji Susu rolled her eyes.
Ye Huangtu smiled bitterly, "Then how do you think we should investigate?"
"At least go to his house and search it to see if there are any clues about the Huaxu Clan. It's just a simple question, what can we get out of it?" Ji Susu said with dissatisfaction.
Ye Huangtu helplessly shook his head and smiled without saying a word.
"Master, where are you going? Aren't you going back to your residence?" Ji Susu realized that the path they were taking was wrong.
Ye Huangtu said, "Tomorrow is the Divine Dragon Ceremony, the day of the competition. At the last moment, I have to go and urge that stinky brat to train well. I can teach him as much as I can."
"Alright, then I'll go talk to my daughter-in-law and have some tea." Ji Susu immediately put the matter of Zhuang Yi aside.
The couple arrived at Ye Fan's courtyard.
Ye Fan had also just returned from the Great Elder's place. When asked what the Great Elder had talked about, Ye Fan vaguely responded.
Knowing that Ye Huangtu was actually going to supervise his cultivation, Ye Fan regretted coming back.
Not long after, Ye Hang also came looking for him. He told Ye Huangtu that he would also participate in the competition tomorrow, intending to help Ye Danqing and Ye Xianqing vent their anger.
Ye Huangtu did not stop the younger generation from fighting. Instead, he encouraged it and personally guided Ye Hang's spear techniques.
As a result, the courtyard that Ye Fan lived in became lively.
Ye Fan was forced to spar with Ye Hang. Although he didn't seem to be serious, it was difficult for Ye Hang to take advantage of him.
Ye Huangtu, who was at the side, was also a little surprised. From his point of view, Ye Fan seemed to have a high talent and could always adapt to the situation.
Although he was happy, Ye Huangtu still told Ye Fan not to be too complacent. If he were to really start fighting with his cultivation tomorrow, it would be a completely different matter.
Ji Suxin and Su Qingxue sat at the stone table drinking tea and eating all kinds of snacks. They really didn't stop chatting.
Gu Qing waited on the side, but from time to time, he couldn't help but look over at Ye Fan.
She was the only one at the scene who knew that Ye Fan was purposely going easy on him. She didn't know why, but when she felt Ye Fan's helplessness, Gu Qing couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker from time to time.
It wasn't until night that Ye Huangtu, his wife, and Ye Hang left, and the courtyard became quiet.
"Aiya, if I knew earlier, I wouldn't have come back. This is too annoying." Although Ye Fan's body wasn't tired, his heart was very tired. He directly fell onto the big bed in his bedroom.
Su Qingxue sat down by the bed and said with a beautiful smile, "Is my husband really annoyed? But I just felt that my husband seemed to be enjoying it."
"Is there?"
"En." Su Qingxue nodded, "A rare reunion time of the year is also worth cherishing." leaf
Fan Xian's eyes were a little absent-minded. Family reunion? Could it be that he really treated them as family?
But he clearly wasn't their family!
After another night of cultivation, it was finally the day of the Divine Dragon Ceremony and the Grand Competition.
