Beast Taming Mad Concubine: The Useless Young Lady is Back!

Chapter 206 Stepping Over My Dead Body

Meanwhile, Ye Qing'an had already returned to the Cloud Dream Realm.

Jiu Xiao didn't know what happened to Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu in the end. He just saw Ye Qing'an's face was so dark that he felt a little uneasy. Although when Ye Qing'an took Yi Moxu away from Yunmeng Dreamland earlier, Yi Moxu's Li Huo Eyes were almost gone.

But recalling Yi Moxu's fighting power when his fiery eyes flared up last month, and the situation he had witnessed before...

"Are you alright? Yi Moxu didn't do anything to you, did he? Is his Fiery Eyes healed?"

Upon hearing the name Yi Moxu, Ye Qing'an's expression turned cold: "The child is his."

Jiuxiao's eyes widened in disbelief: "What? What child? You've had a child in such a short time?"

"No..." Jiu Xiao felt that his words were somewhat inappropriate: "Even if you two were together just now, you couldn't have a child so quickly, could you? Although I'm not human, but..."

Before Jiu Xiao could speak, Ye Qing'an glared at him: "I meant Eleven. Eleven is Yi Moxu's child."

"No way?" Jiu Xiao was even more confused after hearing her say that: "Isn't Eleven the child you carried for ten months and gave birth to? How could it be Yi Moxu's?"

Just as he finished speaking, Jiu Xiao suddenly shuddered under Ye Qing'an's murderous gaze, and suddenly remembered that a child, besides his mother, also has a father...

Jiu Xiao suddenly looked up at Ye Qing'an, swallowing hard: "It can't be... what I'm thinking, can it?"

"Yi Moxu? Is he Eleven's father?"

Ye Qing'an sat down cross-legged to the side, trying to calm herself down.

This attitude... is it tacit agreement?

Jiu Xiao fell silent for a long while before turning to Ye Qing'an again: "But, as far as I know, wasn't Eleven born after you were violated by the thieves hired by Ye Weilan?"

"How could it be Yi Moxu? Back then..."

Jiu Xiao thought carefully for a moment: "Five years ago, Yi Moxu should have already been exiled to Qian'an by Yi Yun Kui, right? I heard that Yi Moxu committed a major taboo against Yi Yun Kui, which enraged him. Not only was he exiled, but Yi Moxu's spiritual power was also completely destroyed. He was forced to undergo a marrow cleansing and meridian transformation, and twelve top experts were dispatched to keep an eye on Yi Moxu..."

"Under those circumstances, there's no way Yi Moxu could have escaped back to Wangjing City without being discovered, right?"

After Jiu Xiao finished speaking, he suddenly realized, "Oh, I forgot, Yi Moxu has also escaped back to Wangjing City and has been staying under the emperor's nose for so long without being discovered. Moreover, he has also mastered the Li Huo Technique."

"But how could Ye Weilan possibly have found Yi Moxu?"

Ye Qing'an frowned, unable to resist interrupting his muttering: "That day happened to be the fifteenth, and it was the first time Yi Moxu's Li Huo Eyes flared up. Yi Moxu wanted to find a secluded place to hide, but he happened to run into Ye Weilan having someone plot against me. Ye Weilan used an aphrodisiac, and Yi Moxu lost his mind because of the Li Huo Eyes, and by a twist of fate..."

"What the heck..." Jiu Xiao's mouth dropped open, his eyes glazed over, still somewhat incredulous: "This is too much of a coincidence! Even a play wouldn't dare to write something like this..."

"Then, isn't Eleven your child with Yi Moxu? My God, no wonder he likes Eleven so much and tries every means to get close to her. I think he wants to compete with you for Eleven."

Ye Qing'an paused, her brows furrowing slightly. In her previous rage, she hadn't thought too much about it or had any such suspicions. But now, after hearing Jiu Xiao's words, she felt that it seemed to be true. The abnormalities of Yi Moxu before could be explained, with clues everywhere.

No wonder Yi Moxu suddenly approached and praised Eleven so highly.

No wonder Yi Moxu was so angry after the incident in the back garden that day, and even scolded her for not being able to protect her child.

No wonder he would make all sorts of little trinkets for Eleven by hand, and keep sending her all sorts of things under the guise of playing along with her.

No wonder he said he could personally teach Eleven.

No wonder he suggested taking Eleven out of the mansion for fun...

She had previously thought that Yi Moxu was putting so much effort into acting and making the performance so convincing because he wanted to gain Ye Qinghao's trust.

Now she suddenly realized that Yi Moxu had kept his distance from her at first, neither warm nor cold, but then suddenly got closer, all because of Eleven.

“That’s true…” Jiu Xiao was still muttering to himself, “If you count it up, Yi Moxu should have been exiled when he was sixteen. Now… it’s been six years? Then Yi Moxu should be twenty-two by now…”

"I think Yi Moxu has been cultivating the Fire Separation Technique and trying to become stronger these past few years. He hasn't had any wives or concubines around him since he returned to Wangjing City, so he probably hasn't had time to talk about love and romance."

"The sudden appearance of a son, who is already so grown up and has quite a talent, is like a windfall. Suddenly, the family line has been established."

“If it were me, I would also want to snatch it… Besides, as far as Yi Moxu is concerned, he is a prince, and now that he has gone to great lengths to return to Wangjing City, he must also want to seize the throne.”

“For the royal family, offspring are also a very important thing in the struggle for the throne.”

Ye Qing'an raised her eyes to look at Jiu Xiao, her gaze somewhat sharp.

Jiu Xiao shuddered and coughed lightly: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"

Ye Qing'an shook her head: "I think that in all the time I've known you, you've said a lot of things, but only what you said today makes some sense."

"Right?" Jiu Xiao ignored the first half of Ye Qing'an's sentence and decided to only listen to the second half: "You also think that Yi Moxu came here to steal Eleven, right?"

"But right now, you're no match for Yi Moxu at all! What if he tries to take Eleven away from you? There's nothing you can do about it..."

Ye Qing'an sneered: "Dream on, no one can take Eleven away from me."

Although Eleven wasn't actually her biological child, she had already developed feelings for him after spending more than two months with him.

Since she has taken over the body of the original owner, she naturally has an obligation to take good care of the person she cares about most. If Eleven is taken away by Yi Moxu, she will probably not have the face to see the original Ye Qing'an even after she goes to hell a hundred years later.

"If you want to steal Eleven, you'll have to step over my dead body first."

Jiu Xiao glanced at Ye Qing'an, thinking to himself that with his master's current strength, it would be an easy thing for Yi Moxu to step over her corpse.
