Chapter 623: Chapter 623 Terrifying Ye Qingci_1

"Your identity is indeed quite intimidating. I can’t believe I’m friends with someone of such high status; it’s a bit humbling," Su Chengyu said.

Yang Junmo chuckled, "Hey, when I make friends, I never care about what their status is."

"So, you must know Ye Qingci, right?" asked Su Chengyu.

Upon the mention of Ye Qingci, Yang Junmo’s expression subtly changed, and he coughed, "I...I do know her."

Seeing Yang Junmo’s strange expression, Su Chengyu teased, "Ye Qingci is incredibly beautiful, a rare beauty in this world. Given your personality, I assume you haven’t passed up the chance to pursue her."

"Goodness, no! Don’t say such things, she’s the one that my older brother is fond of. I wouldn’t dare to entertain such thoughts," Yang Junmo hurriedly clarified.

"Then why did your complexion change when I brought her up? It seems like you’re scared of her."

Ye Qingci is a rare beauty admired by many, and those who can match her are inevitably exceptional individuals, the cream of the crop.

Yang Junmo grimaced, "What kind of joke is that? How could I be scared of her! Why are you asking so many questions? It’s my turn to ask."

Su Chengyu responded with laughter. Judging from Yang Junmo’s reaction, there was certainly something going on.

"Fine! What do you want to ask?"

Yang Junmo questioned, "Let’s talk about your background. Are you from the ancient Su family?"

Su Chengyu was silent for a moment, and then his facial muscles twitched as he returned to his original appearance, saying, "My name is not Su Cheng. It’s Su Chengyu. I was born and raised in Lin Jiang of Jiangdong."

"From Lin Jiang...so you’re not from the ancient Su family. Yes, that makes sense. Any disciple from the ancient clans who are able to cultivate would not be at such a low level at your age. So, who did you study under?"

Yang Junmo continued his self-analysis.

While the people from the ancient clans are indeed talented, not many of them are able to cultivate. Among those who do have the cultivating talent, they are the focus of their families’ nurturing efforts. Coupled with their own inherited abilities, their cultivation speed far exceeds that of other cultivators. It is very normal for them to reach the Tongxuan Realm in their twenties.

"I’m not affiliated with any school or sect. It was my grandfather who taught me cultivation techniques, though he has already passed away," Su Chengyu said.

Although their lineage originated from the Su Clan, strictly speaking, he was indeed not considered a member of the Su Clan.

"Oh, I see." Yang Junmo nodded slightly.

"Tell me about your understanding of Ye Qingci, as much detail as possible," Su Chengyu asked.

Su Chengyu was very curious about his beautiful Aunt Ye and wanted to know everything about her.

"Why are you asking these questions? Do you know her?" Yang Junmo was clearly unwilling to discuss Ye Qingci.

"Answer me first, then I’ll answer your question. If you refuse to answer, that would prove that you’re really scared of her. There must be something fishy going on between you two," Su Chengyu teased.

Yang Junmo, as if stepped on his tail, immediately retorted, "That’s bullshit! I’m not scared of her!"

Yet, his words lacked conviction, and then he impatiently said, "Ye Qingci is from the Ye family in Kyoto. Her father is the founder and the first sect master of the Dragon Soul Bureau. The current sect master of the Dragon Soul Bureau is her older brother, Ye Qingming. The Ye family and our family are old friends with a close relationship, but if you count the generations, she is my elder. Ye Qingci started her cultivation journey later than me, but her cultivation talent surpasses mine."

"She started her cultivation journey when she was sixteen. Now she is at the peak of the Golden Core Realm and she could step into the Nascent Soul Realm at any moment. Ye Qingci has a peculiar personality — she’s aloof and arrogant. I’ve known her since childhood, and I don’t recall her ever smiling. She hardly has any friends at the Demon Slayer Department and is distant from everyone."

"When we were kids, I accidentally intruded on her private courtyard and saw her taking a bath and she nearly killed me. She almost gouged out my eyes, and if it hadn’t been for my father stepping in, I would have lost my eyes for sure! After that incident, I hardly spoke to her and did my best to avoid her."

"You’re sure it was by accident that you entered her courtyard? Ye Qingci was seen by you entirely?" Su Chengyu narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Of course! Even if I had a hundred times the courage, I wouldn’t dare to barge in if I knew she was bathing! If I saw her, I would accept losing my eyes, but the key point is I saw nothing. She was soaked in the water, and I didn’t see anything below her neck. Still, I was beaten for no reason! Tell me, is that fair?"

Yang Junmo was still bitter about the incident and seemed to be a bit traumatized by the mere recollection.

One could only imagine the kind of mental trauma Ye Qingci had caused Yang Junmo.

"So she dared to gouge out your eyes and kill you? Your father is the sect master of the Demon Slayer Department! Are you really that scared of her?" Su Chengyu scoffed.

"You don’t know shit!"

Yang Junmo sat down on a rock nearby and scratched his head, "You don’t understand her at all. She always stands by her words, and in the Ye family, she is the most pampered and spoilt. There’s nothing she wouldn’t dare to do. Even though my father is the sect master of the Demon Slayer Department, he’s at best on equal footing with Ye Qingming, let alone the highly respected Grandpa Ye, who is a founding elder of the Dragon Soul Bureau and fought alongside Emperor Xia. No one dares to touch Grandpa Ye, including my father."

Su Chengyu was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Ye Qingci’s background to be so powerful. With such a father and older brother, it was no wonder Yang Junmo was so afraid of her.

Su Chengyu felt a bit melancholy. He should have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth just like Yang Junmo and Ye Qingci. But instead, he’s had to rely on his own grueling cultivation practices, facing numerous trials and tribulations, and life-and-death challenges, unable to protect those around him.

The reason Su Chengyu was playing this game with Yang Junmo was also to indirectly find out some secrets about his own family.

"When she joined the Demon Slayer Department, damn, I was so scared I didn’t dare to go home for half a year, let alone visit the Department. In any case, I don’t want to talk about her, and I certainly don’t want to see her."

Yang Junmo quickly ended the topic of Ye Qingci, but then, with a light exclamation, he asked, "Given your level, you shouldn’t be in contact with people of Ye Qingci’s rank, right? Why are you asking about her?"

"She’s saved my life before, so she’s my savior," Su Chengyu replied.

"Impossible! Ye Qingci saved you? Why would she save you? She’s cold-hearted and indifferent to human sentiment; how could she possibly save you?" Yang Junmo dismissed the idea with a wave of his hand.

"I have no idea why she saved me! Maybe it’s because I’m handsome," Su Chengyu laughed.

Yang Junmo snorted contemptuously, "Are you trying to inflate yourself? You’re even thicker-skinned than me. Tell me the truth. How did you meet her?"

Su Chengyu explained, "Not long ago in Lin Jiang, I was attacked by a demon. I almost lost my life but she killed the demon and saved me. Later, I was framed by the Lin Jiang Dragon Soul Bureau that I conspired with the demon man. They wanted to kill me, but she proved my innocence. It was only then that I learned of her identity from the Bureau."

Su Chengyu didn’t lie completely. However, he could not mention the matter concerning the Dragon Slayer Sword that Ye Qingci gifted him.
