Translator: Dragon Boat Translation   Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After hearing Nangong Xuyao’s words, Ye Lengan was momentarily stunned. It then occurred to her that she had used a Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill to save Nangong Xuyao when he was in a life-threatening situation. However, at that time, Nangong Xuyao was unconscious. Could it be that he now remembered something?

On the side, Huangfu Ruiling had initially paid no attention to Nangong Xuyao’s arrival. However, upon hearing him mention the life-saving favor again, he couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

Though her mind was in turmoil, Ye Lengan maintained a calm demeanor. “What do you mean? How is this related to you?”

“To be honest,” Nangong Xuyao quickly explained upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, “I was gravely injured before, and someone saved me. They used a Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill. It was when I caught a whiff of the same pill e s scent at the herb store that I recalled it was you.”

Could it be that the young lady before him was truly his savior(

“Oh, really?” Ye Leng’an’s eyes revealed a hint of understanding. She replied, “1 didn’t save you. Moreover, considering the rarity of the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill, it’s impossible for me to casually use such a precious elixir.’

If she hadn’t recently transmigrated and sensed Nangong Xuyao’s plight, reminiscent of her near-death experience, she might not have intervened. Furthermore, her act of saving him had also indirectly benefited Ye Xiyuan. In hindsight, it was quite exasperating.

Yet, her assistance had been impulsive, and she hadn’t expected any particular gratitude or repayment from Nangong Xuyao. The debt for saving his life had long been settled with monetary compensation. Consequently, she had no ongoing connection with Nangong Xuyao and had no intention of acknowledging the rescue.

Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s response, a trace of disappointment flashed in Nangong Xuyao’s eyes. Nevertheless, he persisted, asking, “May I ask if Miss Ye has ever given the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill to someone else?” Aware of the slim likelihood, he couldn’t help but ask.

“Do you find that plausible?” Ye Lengan chuckled nonchalantly. “For such a precious elixir, I intend to keep it well. Besides, do you think I can produce eight or ten of these pills at any given moment?”

Blushing at her retort, Nangong Xuyao bowed, expressing, “l apologize for the intrusion. Thank you for clarifying matters today, Miss Ye.”

“No problem,” Ye Lengan responded with a faint smile. She continued, “However, I understand your desire to find your benefactor. Have you considered that they might not want to be found? Perhaps, saving you was just a casual act without much significance to them. So, I advise you not to obsess over this matter, especially if your intentions are impure. Disturbing them would be unwise.’

Her counsel wasn’t directed at Nangong Xuyao but rather at herself. She wished to avoid any connection with him and preferred he remained unaware that she was his savior.

As Nangong Xuyao left, Huangfu Ruiling remarked with a faint smile, “I really don’t want him to know you were the one who saved him.”

“Please,” Ye Lengan responded with an eye roll, as if politely declining. “Judging by his expression, he’s not upset about being unable to thank his savior. He’s disappointed because he can’t establish a relationship with a potential alchemist.”

Not a fool, Ye Lengan had seen through Nangong Xuyao’s motives. However, her reticence wasn’t solely due to that. She found the idea of having any connection with Nangong Xuyao distasteful, especially considering his past assistance to Ye Xiyuan.

After Ye Lenz’an’s words. Huanzfu Ruiling’s smile became more amicable.

“You see things quite clearly! He knows the value of the Nine-Cycle

Soul-Returning Pill and understands that someone capable of using it to save him is no ordinary person. His actions are just an attempt to enhance his bargaining position. ”

“It seems his days in the Hidden World won’t be easy.” Ye Lengan nodded, recalling. “So, it appears that his association with Zhongyu Jiarui is also for this reason.’

“Zhongyu Jiarui is blinded by love, but the head of the Zhongyu family is no fool,” Huangfu Ruiling remarked, a hint of sarcasm in his smile. “Master Zhongyu is an old fox. Nangong Xuyao’s intentions are probably transparent before him. Although he may not love Zhongyu Jiarui the most, she is still his biological daughter. He won’t allow Zhongyu Jiarui to jump into a fire pit.”

“So it seems Nangong Xuyao won’t find success on this path. What a pity,” Ye Lengan said without regret. “But how do you know so much?”

With suspicion, her gaze fell on Huangfu Ruiling, as if she expected to glean something from his expression.

Huangfu Ruiling remained composed and calmly replied, “It’s not difficult to deduce such a simple matter. With Nangong Xuyao’s status, he can’t marry the daughter of a prominent family. He’s merely daydreaming.”

Although he appeared calm on the surface, his heart skipped a beat. In truth, the reason he was so well-informed was that after Ye Lengan mentioned encountering Nangong Xuyao, he dispatched someone to investigate Nangong Xuyao’s activities in the Hidden World. Consequently, he had acquired detailed information.

Of course, his action wasn’t a lack of trust in Ye Lengan but rather a mild aversion to Nangong Xuyao. Especially considering Nangong Xuyao’s persistent attempts to find his savior, he wished to prevent any connection between Nangong Xuyao and Aryan.

Moreover, he could sense that An’an harbored the same sentiments. Hence, he decided to investigate and take preemptive measures. Naturally, he couldn’t deny the tinge of jealousy in his actions.

However, he had no intention of letting Ye Lengan know about these details. Revealing them would only invite her mockery..
