Du Yao cautiously responded, "Reporting to Elder Xiao, yes."
As she spoke, as if worried about Xiao Mu's blame, she hurriedly added: "But with the ninety-three Incense-Concealing Heaven Techniques I have mastered, plus seven I've personally developed and organized, it's enough to conceal the Heaven's Secret for you, Elder Xiao."
Xiao Mu changed the topic to prevent Du Yao from becoming more uneasy, "In that case, use the Incense-Concealing Heaven Technique to conceal Heaven's Secret for me."
"Yes, Elder Xiao."
Du Yao respectfully agreed, pulled out a high-back reclining chair from the wall beside her, and asked Xiao Mu hesitantly, "Elder Xiao, I'm sorry, could you please sit here?"
The words were overly formal.
Xiao Mu, feeling slightly uncomfortable, did not answer. He directly walked over and sat on the reclining chair Du Yao had just pulled out, then reclined back.
