Seeing the other party's angry expression, Gui Wu curled her lips and said with a smile, "Hmph! It seems you haven't learned your lesson these past few days!"
"Let me tell you, I don't have Ye Cangtian's good temper. Now you have two choices: first, obey, or second, I'll loosen your muscles for you!"
"You!"
Upon hearing this, Nan Xi became even more enraged, gritting her teeth and saying,
"Gui Wu, you'd better think about it. In at most a year, I can obtain the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir. At that time, I will break through to the Earthly level, and you might not be my match!"
Gui Wu sneered, "Heh heh, that's at least a year from now. We'll talk about the future when it comes."
"Now, I only ask you, do you obey, or do you resist?"
"You!"
Her words made Nan Xi tremble with anger. After a long while, she finally swallowed her pride and walked over.
There was no other way. Gui Wu was too disgusting. After teaching her a lesson, she left no trace. Nan Xi could only suffer in silence.
Instead of that, it was better to go up and get a massage, at least she wouldn't have to suffer.
On the other side, feeling Nan Xi's revenge-fueled massage, Gui Wu didn't pay attention. Instead, she said, "That's more like it. Sister isn't unfair to you. Don't I take you sightseeing when I have time?"
"So massaging your sister is also your duty. Don't be so reluctant and ruin our sisterly bond..."
The reason Gui Wu acted this way was entirely purposeful.
The fact that Ye Cangtian gave her a Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir for free had already made her very unhappy.
However, since the matter could not be changed, she naturally wouldn't let Ye Cangtian suffer in silence. She reluctantly agreed to help Ye Cangtian train Nan Xi.
Of course, she had to temper Nan Xi's personality during this process.
"How can you say that!"
"Did I say I wanted to go out and play? It was you who always dragged me along!"
Upon hearing this, Nan Xi's eyes widened, and she said angrily.
Gui Wu chuckled, "I don't know who it was, but when we went shopping, her eyes lit up, wanting to buy this and that. Was I stingy?"
After a pause, Gui Wu added with even more disdain, "What is this called? Outwardly refusing, but inwardly honest!"
"I..."
Her words instantly rendered Nan Xi speechless. After all, shopping was a woman's nature. Who could resist buying things!
"Hahaha, what's going on?"
"Am I seeing things? How come the pride of the Bright Hall is also responsible for giving massages?"
"Just right, I've been traveling for so long, and I need a massage too!"
At this moment, a hearty voice came, and Ye Cangtian pushed open the door and walked in, seeing the scene before him, and immediately became interested.
"You're back?"
"Hmm? Why do I feel like I can't see through you anymore? Have you broken through?"
Gui Wu glanced over. However, with this glance, Gui Wu froze.
Previously, she could still vaguely sense Ye Cangtian's aura.
But after Ye Cangtian returned this time, she couldn't sense his aura at all, as if the person standing in front of her was an ordinary person.
"Heh heh, I've made some progress, not worth mentioning."
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, then walked to the sofa and sat down.
On the other side, seeing Ye Cangtian sit down, Nan Xi's eyes rolled, and she obediently walked over.
After all, him asking her to massage was an excellent opportunity.
However, the next moment, when her hands were placed on Ye Cangtian's shoulders, only a咫尺 away from his neck, her heart inexplicably tensed up.
That feeling kept telling her that although she had the opportunity to strike at any time, she would never succeed. This was a trap deliberately set by him!
On the side, Gui Wu glanced at Nan Xi from the corner of her eye. Seeing that Nan Xi hadn't made a move yet, she murmured to herself, "It seems this girl isn't that stupid..."
Meanwhile, Ye Cangtian's face remained relaxed and smiling. He didn't pay attention to Nan Xi and instead asked with a smile, "Gui Wu, have there been any recent news from the capital?"
"Nothing major."
"But there's a big shot in the capital!"
Gui Wu glanced at Ye Cangtian and said after thinking.
"Hmm? A big shot? Who?"
Seeing Gui Wu's wary gaze, Ye Cangtian knew this person was definitely not simple, so he quickly pressed.
"Dongfang Mingyue, the acting head of the Hidden Group!"
"She specifically came here to find you, and almost..."
Almost didn't teach her a lesson!
After all, she had caused quite a bit of trouble for China in the past. Dongfang Mingyue naturally had her information.
When she saw her here, Dongfang Mingyue naturally had to question her thoroughly, and her attitude was inevitably a bit harsh.
"Uh..."
"Don't take it to heart. Sister Mingyue is just worried about me."
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but smile wryly. She hadn't expected Dongfang Mingyue to leave the ruins and come here.
After a brief chat, Ye Cangtian left the villa and headed straight for the family compound.
He knew very well that Dongfang Mingyue wouldn't trust Gui Wu, so she wouldn't possibly tell Gui Wu her address.
Now, the only way to find Dongfang Mingyue was through Old Master Xu.
...
Family Compound.
By the time Ye Cangtian arrived at the family compound, the sky had already darkened. The old man was enjoying his dinner.
Seeing Ye Cangtian return, he quickly said, "Haha, it's better to arrive early than on time. You're just in time for me to have a couple of drinks!"
Ye Cangtian didn't stand on ceremony. He sat down directly and chatted while eating.
After three rounds of drinks and five rounds of food, Ye Cangtian finally got to the point and said, "Old Master, I heard Sister Mingyue has come to Kyoto?"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Xu's expression changed slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Yes, that girl has come!"
Seeing Old Master Xu's obviously wrong expression, Ye Cangtian quickly said, "Old Master, you wouldn't have quarreled with Sister Mingyue, would you?"
Hmph!
Old Master Xu snorted lightly and said, "That girl is at the Hua Sheng Hotel. Go ask her yourself!"
"..."
Ye Cangtian secretly glanced at Old Master Xu. It seemed their conflict was quite significant. Now that Dongfang Mingyue was mentioned, he was full of anger.
Thinking to himself, Ye Cangtian chuckled and persuaded, "Old Master, why bother with a junior? Besides, didn't you cooperate very well before? It's not worth it for some trivial matters!"
"Hmph, do I need you to teach me this?"
Old Master Xu glared at Ye Cangtian impatiently.
"Of course not. Old Master is so wise!"
After saying that with a forced smile, seeing that Old Master Xu was still angry, Ye Cangtian quickly said, "No matter what, Sister Mingyue was a bit too much this time. I'll go teach her a lesson for you. Wait for my good news!"
With that, Ye Cangtian slipped out of the family compound.
Watching Ye Cangtian's receding back, Old Master Xu snorted lightly and muttered, "This slippery fellow, do you have the guts? Even if you do, who will teach whom is still up for debate!"
...
Hua Sheng Hotel.
As one of Kyoto's top hotels, Hua Sheng Hotel was famous for its security and service attitude.
As soon as he entered the hotel, a tall waitress with a gentle smile walked over.
"Sir, hello, may I ask if you are here for dining..."
Facing the polite waitress, Ye Cangtian cleared his throat and said, "I'm here to see someone. I'm going to the presidential suite on the top floor."
"Sir, please provide your information. We need to verify it."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian replied, "Hidden Group, Ye Cangtian."
"So it's Mr. Ye! This way, please. Miss Dongfang had already instructed that if it's you, no prior notice or verification is needed..."
The waitress very politely led Ye Cangtian to the elevator entrance, opened the door, made a respectful gesture of invitation, and then turned away.
"Heh heh, I have to say, Sister Mingyue has some taste."
"Even the hotel she chose has the best service attitude in Kyoto!"
Ye Cangtian muttered with a smile and stepped into the elevator.
