"Cheng Lingsu is his only disciple. He has held the title of Lanling's number one genius alchemist for many years. However, she lost to you in the hunting competition for the first time. It is natural that he would not mind."
Emperor Shitian explained.
In fact, Ye Xiyue had thought of this before, but...
"So, this big shot who is very likely to break through and become the first seventh-grade alchemist in the Xingyao Empire is not very big-minded."
Ye Xiyue was speechless for a moment,
"Is it possible that only they can take the first place, and they will look down upon anyone else who takes it?"
Emperor Shitian smiled.
"Hong Ming himself is a rare genius. He has rarely experienced defeat in so many years. He also has high expectations for Cheng Lingsu. If I remember correctly, this should be the first time Cheng Lingsu has lost to a peer."
And it was in front of so many people.
"The Cheng family has always protected her very well. They sent her out in this hunting competition with the aim of being the first place. As a result -"
As a result, Ye Xiyue appeared halfway, not only stealing all the limelight, but also directly pulling the Pei family to the first position, leaving the originally smug Cheng family in second place.
Ye Xiyue's red lips were slightly raised, half-smiling but not smiling.
"You've just lost once, and now you've labeled me as your enemy. Will you hate me even more in the future? I'm afraid you'll have a heart attack every time you see me."
If Hong Ming heard this, I don't know how angry he would be.
However, Emperor Shitian nodded seriously: "This is really not impossible."
He never dared to underestimate Ye Xiyue. She had talent and willpower far beyond ordinary people. In addition, she was also very lucky.
Such people are destined to become strong.
But even so, Ye Xiyue's performance still often surprises and shocks him.
She possesses unlimited amazing potential.
Even if others are not convinced, they can only endure it.
"Liu Chunjiang is a narrow-minded person who will retaliate. There is no possibility of reconciliation between you and them. But this is Lanling, and he has to act cautiously. No matter how much resentment and hatred he has, he can only
Force it to endure."
Of course, just because he is holding back now does not mean that the matter is over with him.
Ye Xiyue is naturally aware of this.
But what she couldn't understand was——
"Even if Hong Ming agreed to help save Liu Wenfei because he couldn't stand me, what good would it do to him?"
Liu Wenfei's situation was very difficult, and based on Ye Xiyue's guess, no one could save him unless Senior Xue Yao took action himself.
It was really thankless for Hong Ming to do this.
"Is it really just to vent your anger?"
No matter how much Ye Xiyue thought about it, she felt something was wrong.
Emperor Shitian's eyes fell on her face, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
"If it was just like this, it would certainly not be enough to make him nod. Liu Chunjiang suffered a lot of bleeding in order to persuade him to take action."
Ye Xiyue's eyes lit up, and there was a bit of curiosity in her eyes: "Oh?"
She really wanted to know this.
Hong Ming is the alchemist worshiped by the Cheng family. He has a distinguished status. What does he want?
What conditions did Liu Chunjiang put forward to get him to nod?
Emperor Shitian said: "Do you still remember Cheng Lingsu's contracted magical beast, the Wuling Blood Marten?"
Of course Ye Xiyue remembered.
After all, it died miserably at the time.
"The Liu family recently hunted a young fire spirit beast, also a seventh-grade one."
