Chapter 243: Two hundred forty-three, can you really defuse it?
After speaking, Yun Xiao no longer paid attention to Chang Qing, who was jubilantly savoring his words; instead, he turned around and walked straight out of the square.
Following behind him, Mo Qing glanced at Chang Qing with a highly puzzled look on her face, then stepped out of the square as well. Catching up with Yun Xiao, she could not help but ask, "Is this really your first time at the Jade Martial Institute?"
Without turning his head, Yun Xiao replied, "Of course, I haven’t even been part of the Inner Sect for that many days!"
"How did you know about the Lightless Seal then?" Mo Qing, on the verge of persistently interrogating him, made Yun Xiao suddenly stop walking and turn his head back.
"Senior Sister Mo Qing, there are many coincidences in this world. I just happened to know about the Lightless Seal!" Yun Xiao’s eyes sparkled as he spoke, but how could Mo Qing believe that?
Knowing his lie wouldn’t deceive this clever girl, Yun Xiao seriously said, "Senior Sister Mo Qing, everyone has secrets. Your relentless pursuit might make you unpopular!"
"You..."
His words contained a hint of teasing, making Mo Qing uncomfortable. Her face darkened, but she was at a loss for words, because she suddenly felt that Yun Xiao’s point was quite reasonable.
From the moment Yun Xiao set foot in the Jade Pot Sect—even before—he had showcased certain techniques that already caught Mo Qing’s attention, this obscure youth in simple attire.
After the competition of the Outer Sect and joining the Inner Sect, Yun Xiao piqued Mo Qing’s interest even more. It was not just because of their chance meeting at Yurong Mountain. She was increasingly discovering that there were too many mysteries about him, irresistibly intriguing her to explore.
