Qin Xiaosen was angry. He had a certain authority, but soon, he leaned in close to the guard's ear and whispered, "I didn't say that word just now, and you didn't hear it, understand?"
"Understood! Your subordinate understands! I didn't hear anything," the guard replied with a sheepish smile.
The Clan Leader had issued a strict order, forbidding anyone in the clan from saying the word "grandson"...
Qu Tan'er found it perplexing but didn't ask for details.
Qin Xiaosen had to deal with the matter, so she returned to the Alchemy Room first.
After a while, she too went back to the Alchemy Room, Mo Liancheng still hadn't come out.
She picked a spot at random, sat down cross-legged, and started meditating, perusing the Qu Clan's secret technique, intending to continue cultivating. However, she couldn't calm her mind, remembering Qin Xiaosen's words earlier and recalling how Mo Yifeng also mentioned his ill-fated encounters with others.
Her mood couldn't help but sink...
