Ning Qi glanced at Elder Feng and then at Ling Mo Xie, feeling a sense of being plotted against, which left him quite displeased.
However, Ning Qi thought to himself that Ling Mo Xie didn't even know the most basic knowledge about grievances, so he had nothing to fear from him. Since he was seeking his own demise, he might as well let him be!
With this in mind, Ning Qi chose not to say more, merely casting a shadowy glance at Ling Mo Xie before turning to follow Cang Qin away.
"Mo Xie, my master uncle... I'm sorry, but he won't listen to me." After the two left, Shangguan Ying'er approached Ling Mo Xie. Although she maintained her graceful demeanor, there was an unmistakable hint of apology in her eyes.
Ling Mo Xie looked at her and relaxed slightly, speaking gently, "You shouldn't apologize for them; besides, I am not the victim here."
Shangguan Ying'er looked up at Ling Mo Xie and said earnestly, "After all, my master uncle is from the Azure Emperor Sect and I brought him here; I should apologize. However..."
She hesitated, biting her lip as she looked at Ling Mo Xie. "Please don't spread this matter."
Ling Mo Xie glanced at her; this was typical of sect members, always thinking first about protecting the sect's reputation.
He turned to Elder Feng, but before he could speak, Elder Feng approached and said to Ling Mo Xie, "My thoughts align with Ying'er's. We will report this matter internally within the sect, but we hope you won't spread it further."
Bai Yunfei listened to their conversation with increasing impatience and finally couldn't hold back any longer. "This kind of thing has already violated basic human morals! Why are you still covering for him?"
Elder Feng lazily glanced at Bai Yunfei. "We are not covering for Cang Qin; we are merely protecting the reputation of the Azure Emperor Sect! As a fellow sect member, you should understand this."
"Well..." Bai Yunfei paused, looking at the obedient and adorable Young Lady in his arms whose face was still stained with dried tears. He then turned to look at the man who could hardly be called human anymore and scoffed, "At least people from my Illusory Void Sect would never do such a thing nor need to protect our sect's honor in this way."
"Alright, everyone should tone it down! What we need to focus on now is finding this Young Lady's mother and returning her to her." Ling Mo Xie smiled and tried to mediate.
"We can discuss that later. Mo Xie, are you confident about suddenly changing the terms of the competition? They've been studying grievances for almost half a month now; it's actually unfair to you. I only nodded in agreement because I saw how things were unfolding."
Elder Feng, upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, seemed to awaken from a slumber and looked at Ling Mo Xie seriously.
Ling Mo Xie couldn't help but laugh inwardly at Elder Feng's words. Unfair? It certainly was unfair, but not to himself; rather, it was unfair to Ning Qi.
Although he thought this in his heart, he naturally couldn't say it aloud to Elder Feng. He merely smiled lightly and said, "Whether it's fair or not doesn't matter. What matters is eliminating Resentment. Elder Feng, you should know how many people have been affected by Resentment and what their situation is like, right? Can you tell me about it?"
Upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, Elder Feng realized that he was being brushed off and frowned in displeasure. He replied, "It seems you have some confidence? You haven't shared any information with me, so why should I tell you about the situation regarding Resentment? You can ask Ying Er yourself!"
With that, he waved his sleeve and turned to leave. Although his figure swayed as if he hadn't fully woken up, a closer look revealed that he had already walked quite a distance in his daze.
Before Ling Mo Xie could approach to inquire further, Shangguan Ying'er took the initiative to say, "You can come find me whenever you have time; I will tell you about the current situation of Resentment in Skywind City."
"Thank you!" Ling Mo Xie said with a gentle smile directed at Shangguan Ying'er.
Shangguan Ying'er thought to herself: Is he still angry about what I just said? She opened her mouth and lowered her head, saying, "Thank you for the Elixir you gave me last time. I couldn't wait to take it back myself and had someone deliver it to my senior sister. I heard she has already woken up; thank you!"
"That's great! It seems my Elixir is indeed effective! Haha!" Ling Mo Xie laughed heartily and said to Shangguan Ying'er.
Then he asked, "By the way, where are you staying? Once I finish up here, I'll come find you to discuss Resentment."
Seeing that Ling Mo Xie was pleased that her Elixir had worked, Shangguan Ying'er couldn't help but break into a bright smile. With her willow-like brows arched, she said, "My tent is not far from your Ling Family's. Your Ling Family's tent is easy to find! I'll head back now!"
"Okay, I'll come find you later!" Ling Mo Xie waved at Shangguan Ying'er with a smile.
Shangguan Ying'er nodded and waved back at Ling Mo Xie before turning and walking away quickly.
"Boss! This girl isn't that great, you mustn't take her as a sister-in-law!" Bai Yunfei said to Ling Mo Xie as he saw Shangguan Ying'er leave.
Ling Mo Xie's smile froze, and he gave Bai Yunfei a hard knock on the head. "What nonsense are you talking about? Can't you see our pure friendship? Besides, what's wrong with her? She's just caught up in the Sect, unable to act freely. I say you're the one who's not that great!"
"It's over, it's over. You're already speaking up for her now, what should I do?" Hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, Bai Yunfei immediately made a sad face.
Ling Mo Xie slapped him on the back again. "Let's go! Take this Young Lady to find her mother. I want to get back to the Ling Family early and see how things are! I wonder how Old Man is doing. But with his skills being Not Bad, he should be fine, right?"
Ling Mo Xie seemed to be talking to Bai Yunfei while also muttering to himself.
After saying that, without waiting for Bai Yunfei to complain, he walked to a hidden spot in Hong Chi and picked up Sun Xiaoxiao, who was dressed in red. Seeing that Bai Yunfei hadn't moved yet, he kicked him in the butt. "What are you doing? Hurry up and go!"
Bai Yunfei scratched his head in frustration and rolled his eyes at Ling Mo Xie. "Look at this guy; can he really come with us to find his wife?"
"Uh..." Ling Mo Xie looked at the man covered in countless black bumps, resembling a monster. This guy definitely couldn't go; if someone discovered him, he might be mistaken for some kind of monster and killed!
Seeing the expressions of Ling Mo Xie and Bai Yunfei, the man suddenly smiled, his black bumps shifting in an ugly manner.
"You don't need to worry about me! The child's mother is in the corner west of the camp; I won't go."
