Super Main d'Or - Chapitre 22
Yin Wuxiao remained silent.
It took Bai Can a moment to realize what was happening.
"...Whose?" Although it's still not very flexible, it's enough to convey the meaning.
Yin Wuxiao glared at him fiercely.
"your!"
Bai Can was so shocked that his mouth gaped open. Exhausted from the past few days and physically and mentally traumatized, he collapsed to the ground and fainted.
Who can understand the meaning of these flowers?
When Bai Can slowly woke up, she was met with Yin Wuxiao's cold stare.
"You, you, you..." Why are you looking at him like that? It's making him feel really uneasy.
“I say, Lao Bai,” Yin Wuxiao looked at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, “didn’t you say that Miss Cui gave you a sleeping potion?”
Bai Can's forehead was covered in cold sweat: "Um..."
"How did that child come about? Could it be that Miss Cui was with someone else...?"
"She didn't!" Bai Can roared angrily.
"Oh?" Yin Wuxiao raised an eyebrow. "Are you really that confident that the child isn't another man's?"
"Of course not! That child is mine..."
"Um?"
Bai Can covered his mouth in alarm: "What...what are you doing? I'm the one being forced! Why are you looking at me like I'm a pervert?"
Yin Wuxiao revealed his cold, white teeth: "You dare say you were forced? The mighty God of Thieves, lost his mind because of a little aphrodisiac? Who would believe that?"
"I..." Bai Can looked at the two men behind Yin Wuxiao with a wronged expression, Baili Qingyi and Xuan Hegu, but the two of them pretended to study the spider web on the wall.
"Now that things have come to this, what do you plan to do?" Yin Wuxiao looked exactly like a cunning fox at this moment.
"I...I've always wanted to do this, but it's her who doesn't want to do it, not me who doesn't want to do it. What can I do?" Bai Can roared.
Yin Wuxiao pursed his lips, smiled, and raised the corners of his mouth backward: "Miss Cui, don't you think this makes sense?"
Cui Shenghan had her disguise removed by Xuan Hegu, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. At this moment, she was leaning against the wall with her pressure points sealed, her face showing a mixture of anger and shy embarrassment.
"Huh?" Bai Can only then noticed Cui Shenghan behind Yin Wuxiao, and his face quickly turned red.
"Miss Cui?" Yin Wuxiao waved his hand in front of her. He hadn't struck her pressure point to silence her, so why wasn't she saying anything?
Baili Qingyi squeezed her hand: "Miss Cui, now that you are pregnant, I will no longer pursue the past. However, there is one question that I need to ask you: What is your purpose in disguising yourself and infiltrating the Qiongjiao sect?"
Cui Shenghan stared coldly at the three people in front of her, and after a long while, she uttered a sentence: "My master ordered me to monitor the movements of the Qiong Sect and to act as their inside agent at any time."
What does he want to do?
Cui Shenghan gave him another cold glance: "He's not just thinking about doing something, he's already doing it. Right now, Baiwen Manor should be surrounded by the imperial army."

Unexpectedly, General Canghu of the Jiangnan Cavalry Camp was actually a person without a trace.
The master of Wuhen spread the news to the Qiong Sect, saying that the divine doctor's "Hundred Questions Medical Classic" was actually the "Sacred Poison Classic" that the Qiong Sect had lost seventy years ago. This attracted all the elites of the Qiong Sect to come out, and Hundred Questions Valley was like a huge trap. Once you fell into it, it would be difficult to escape.
However, this time, the trap was successfully set on Baili Qingyi, which was indeed unexpected by the owner of "Wuhen".
What good would it do for "Wuhen" if it only caused a dispute between the imperial court and the Qiongjiao sect?
Baili Qingyi smiled bitterly: "This place is where the Three Rivers and Five Lakes meet, which is exactly the jurisdiction of the Qiao Gang. General Canghu of the Jiangnan Cavalry Camp has always been known for his loyalty to the Qiao Gang. Once this happens, the blame will definitely be placed on the Qiao Gang."
“General Canghu is a man of fierce integrity and upright character; he could never be one of the ‘Traceless’ people,” Yin Wuxiao said with certainty.
"Then how do you explain that 'Wuhen' was able to mobilize several thousand elite troops from the Jiangnan Cavalry Camp?"
Yin Wuxiao was speechless.
“If the leader of the Qiong Sect dies at the hands of Qiao Bang, the Qiong Sect will definitely launch a large-scale southward invasion, and the turmoil in the martial arts world thirty years ago will inevitably be repeated.” Baili Qingyi said solemnly.
Yin Wuxiao glanced at him: "Aren't you the number one expert in the world?"
Baili Qingyi was taken aback, then shook his head and laughed, "Let alone the countless masters in the world, even if I were truly the number one master in the world, I would only be able to kill a few hundred people before I would be exhausted."
"Then..." Her eyes darted around again, "If you're willing to sacrifice your looks and throw a few flirty glances in front of the enemy lines..."
Baili Qingyi's face turned slightly pale.
"Just kidding, just kidding," she laughed it off.
Baili Qingyi took a breath: "The only solution now is to seek help from the nearest Qiao Gang headquarters to stop Cang Hu from attacking Baiwen Manor."
"Then what are we waiting for? Please, young master in blue, set off as soon as possible." Xuan Hegu took two steps forward.
Baili Qingyi slowly turned her head and looked at Yin Wuxiao: "Qiao Fenglang, the leader of the Qiao Gang, is a very suspicious person."
Seeing the strange look in his eyes, Yin Wuxiao couldn't help but ask, "So?"
“If an ordinary person goes there, he will certainly not send anyone to help immediately.”
Yin Wuxiao suddenly understood his intention.
"No!" Just as she was about to refuse, someone shouted out what she was thinking first.
And that person was Xuan He.
"Why?" Baili Qingyi didn't seem surprised by his reaction.
“The curse on her body hasn’t been lifted yet!” Xuan Hegu blurted out.
Yin Wuxiao's expression suddenly changed.
"It really was you!" Her eyes flashed with hatred.
"You are the man who caused Aunt Nan to get pregnant and wander the streets, you are the man who caused her a lifetime of suffering!"
After a struggle, all sorts of pain, helplessness, heartache, and guilt surged onto Xuan Hegu's face, yet he still maintained a resolute expression.
"Yes, it was me! I was the one who made her abort the child, but that child inherited the poison from her, and would definitely be crippled if born. What use would it be? I was doing it for her own good! Besides, she was the one who left first!"
Yin Wuxiao glared at him coldly: "No, you were the one who left first. You didn't want your child. You didn't chase after her after she left, letting her suffer outside."
“You…” Xuan He’s lips trembled, as if he had some difficult emotions that he couldn’t find an outlet for.
Tell me, are you...my daughter?
"Your daughter? Didn't you never want your daughter?" Yin Wuxiao said sarcastically.
"But...you've grown up so much, you're still mine..."
“I didn’t,” Yin Wuxiao interrupted him coldly. “Your daughter was lost twenty years ago during your wanderings.” She suddenly stared straight at him. “You have indirectly succeeded in killing her.”
Upon hearing this, Xuan He swayed slightly, saying in disbelief, "I... I always thought I had a child..."
"And...what about her?" he pressed on, unwilling to give up.
The answer he received truly shattered his spirits.
A look of sorrow welled up in Yin Wuxiao's eyes: "She's dead too."
※ ※ ※
Yin Wuxiao closed his eyes and vaguely saw Aunt Nan gracefully walking towards him, softly saying, "Are you really not going to allow it?"
She vaguely saw Fenglang looking at her from afar again, his eyes familiar yet strange. She couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
A light cough broke the mood.
"It's me." There was a hint of grievance in her voice.
She hurriedly opened her eyes and saw Baili Qingyi, whose gaze was fixed, yet it seemed as if he wasn't looking at her.
Hmm, perhaps she misheard.
"Do you daydream?" he asked.
She shook her head with a wry smile.
Seeing that she remained silent, Baili Qingyi did not speak again.
After a moment, she suddenly began to speak to herself: "I'm probably going to die soon."
Baili Qingyi was stunned.
“I’m becoming less and less like myself. I wouldn’t be surprised if I died right now.”
Are you referring to yourself three months ago, or three years ago?
"I don't know. I just feel like something that's been suppressed for a long time is about to burst out." She shook her head in confusion.
Baili Qingyi curled her lips: "This is a good sign." This girl has no idea how much more vivid and real her joys and sorrows have become in the past few days. Just like the way she is now, holding her face and thinking hard, this is something that would never have happened a few days ago.
Yin Wuxiao glanced at him casually and couldn't help but mutter, "That expression again. Are you up to something?" She had a bad feeling.
"Huh?" Baili Qingyi raised his eyebrows, feigning surprise. He had indeed just discussed her health with Xuan Hegu, but he didn't intend to tell her the results of their conversation.
Yin Wuxiao sighed: "Do you know that every time you have a plan in mind, the corner of your mouth twitches slightly, just like your eyelids bulge when you fake a smile? It's so fake."
"Oh?" She could tell that too?
“Like this!” she shouted, pointing to the tip of his nose, below which were curved lips, and above which his dark eyes flashed with a hint of mockery.
"Xiao'er, you're very excited." He finally broke down in laughter at her unusual behavior.
“You’re excited too.” She frowned as she looked at his gleaming white teeth, revealed by his laughter. “It’s really unsightly for a dignified young master in blue to laugh like this.” His eyes narrowed as he laughed, concealing his usually unfathomable nature, making him look like a child.
Cute? She spat at herself.
“It must be because I’ve been trapped in this underground palace for too long.” She found the reason for herself. “I’ve never been like this before. My chest feels heavy, as if it’s about to burst, and it seems like I can’t control my emotions at all.”
