“I don’t know.”

Qian Jiyun was also puzzled.

“This child seems to be a little afraid of me ever since leaving Lianxue Mountain. ”

Bai Ze had never been afraid of him, even when he would urge him to do his homework frequently in the past. Why did he become afraid of him after bringing him back from Lianxue Mountain?

“Is he afraid you’ll eat him?” An Jiuyue teased the two brothers.

“Or did he do something bad and think you’d scold him?” She had noticed Bai Ze’s guilty look just now. It was obvious he had a guilty conscience.

Could it be…

Impossible! Bai Ze did not leave Jun Lin Hall since his return. He could not have done anything bad.

Besides, Bai Ze admired and revered Qian Jiyun. What could he have done to be so guilty?

“Can he do something bad?”

Qian Jiyun was amused. Bai Ze had never done anything bad. “Did you have something to discuss with him?” he asked.

“Mhm.” An Jiuyue nodded.

“I gave him the Demon’s Heart transmutation technique. He can’t stay by my side every day, can he? It’s inconvenient, and people will gossip.” Upon hearing that, Qian Jiyun’s eyes narrowed as if he had understood her.

He turned and shouted, “Guards!”

A guard walked forward immediately and bowed to him. “Hall Master.”

“Have there been any rumors in Jun Lin Hall recently?” Qian Jiyun asked. “Uh.” The guard was stunned. He looked up uncomfortably and glanced at An Jiuyue.

Everyone in Jun Lin Hall knew that An Jiuyue was their Hall Master’s wife. Who would dare to discuss the rumors about her in front of their Hall Master?!

“Why are you looking at me?”

An Jiuyue was puzzled. Did the rumors in Jun Lin Hall have something to do with her?

“Tell me!”

Qian Jiyun understood the guard’s reaction. However, he still wanted confirmation from the guard.

The guard knew he had no choice, so he answered, “Hall Master, there have been… some rumors circulating in the hall about Hall Mistress and Young Master Bai recently.”

“About me and Ah Ze?”

An Jiuyue was even more puzzled. What could be going on between her and Bai

“What rumors? What are people saying?” she asked.

“They say you’re too close to Young Master Bai. Someone even saw Young

Master Bai giving you his demonic energy and… said that you and Young Master Bai did some shameful things behind the Hall Master’s back.”

After the guard finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked at the ground, afraid that the Hall Master would be unhappy and take it out on him.

However, Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue were not unhappy—they were a little speechless. Qian Jiyun was always present whenever she was with Bai Ze.

How could people say that she did something shameful with Bai Ze?

Were they deliberately tarnishing her reputation in Jun Lin Hall so that people in the hall would think poorly of her?

“Does MO Zhong not want to be the Third Hall Master anymore?” Qian Jiyun gritted his teeth and said coldly as he looked into the distance.

MO Zhong was the alias used by MO Aotian in Jun Lin Hall to hide his identity.

He oversaw information from all around, but he could not even handle the affairs in his own hall.. Wasn’t that a dereliction of duty?
