Upon hearing the question, Yang Chen frowned.

Lately, Chen Siyan seemed to be quite focused on Wei Xueqing.

Yang Chen said, "She's pretty good, why do you ask?"

With innocent eyes fixed on Yang Chen's gaze, Chen Siyan said, "I think Sister Xueqing is pretty great too, but... Brother, isn't love supposed to belong to just one person? A person's heart can only belong to one; once you've given it to someone, you can't give it to another."

Listening to these words, Yang Chen couldn't help but frown.

He finally understood what Chen Siyan had been worrying about these days.

To be honest, Yang Chen wasn't oblivious when it came to emotions and did sense a bit of something. Wei Xueqing's attitude towards him was indeed a bit strange, so he was also trying to maintain a distance, even using coldness to describe his stance. His intention was to avoid any emotional misunderstandings between them.

Apparently, Chen Siyan was worried about this too.

Yang Chen smiled slightly, ruffled Chen Siyan's head, and said, "Little girl, what are you thinking about all day long! I can clearly tell you now, I love Ye Xin and will only love her. If a guard can't remain loyal in love, how can they be loyal to their country? How can they be loyal to their comrades? Or to their family! Perhaps your brother doesn't have many outstanding qualities, but loyalty is definitely one of the few!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Siyan got goosebumps all over her skin, rubbed her arms, and said, "Ew! Brother! Aren't you embarrassed, saying such things out loud! Ew! So cheesy! You must have hit on plenty of women while you were traveling these past years, right?"

"Uh!" A bead of cold sweat slid down Yang Chen's forehead.

Seeing Yang Chen's expression, Chen Siyan pursed her lips and snorted, "I forgive you! But, there's something you said that's not right; you do have remarkable qualities, a lot to learn from!"

"Hmm! That's good!" Yang Chen nodded, said to Chen Siyan, "You have to follow my lead and learn well because there's still much for you to learn!"

Then, Yang Chen proudly tilted his chin and walked out.

"Ew! Not embarrassed!" Chen Siyan laughed behind him.

Yang Chen walked out of the room, and his face couldn't help but turn serious.

He walked to the railing, listening to the discussion between the steward and Wei Xueqing below, frowning slightly.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Chen decided to go downstairs, greeted the two, and returned to his room.

Closing the door, Yang Chen opened his computer and began writing a document.

The document was something he needed to prepare, for it was crucial once the inspection team arrived.

Time passed by the minute and second.

The steward and Wei Xueqing kept discussing until late at night, then finally left.

Yang Chen spent quite a while working on the document, and only around dawn, once he was sure there were no issues, did he save it and transferred it to his email.

Afterward, Yang Chen sat cross-legged on the bed and started cultivating.

For him, cultivation was no different from resting.

Now, whenever he could find time, he would cultivate because he wasn't sure what kind of existence might be lurking in the Shangqing Sect, so he had to stay vigilant.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dawn.

Yang Chen got out of bed, stretched, feeling refreshed.

To him, sometimes, cultivation could refresh him more than sleep. But after all, cultivation is cultivation, and sleep is sleep; occasionally, Yang Chen would find time to take a nap.

Walking out of the room, Yang Chen came to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, reached out to draw back the curtains, and saw the smoky blue sky outside.

He glanced at the time; it was almost five in the morning. It was time to set off.

Yang Chen put on his clothes, thought for a while, and decided to go upstairs.

Arriving at Chen Siyan's door, Yang Chen knocked.

"Who is it!" Came Chen Siyan's sleepy voice from inside.

Yang Chen said, "Yanyan, it's me, time to set off."

"Where to!"

"Don't you remember? The dean said we're going to Wudan Mountain!"

"Oh! Wait a minute, getting up right away."

Yesterday, Yang Chen had arranged with Chen Siyan, after all, she had wanted to travel for a long time, and Yang Chen naturally wanted to make it up to her by taking her along. Chen Siyan was very happy, insisting on going.

That's why Yang Chen came to call her.

In a while, Chen Siyan's door hadn't opened yet, but Wei Xueqing's did.

Wei Xueqing was wearing silky smooth pajamas that accentuated her beautiful figure.

She leaned out halfway, but Yang Chen could still see certain places.

"Where are you going?" Wei Xueqing asked.

Yang Chen lowered his head slightly, eyes on the floor, said, "I'm taking Yanyan to Wudan Mountain, you should rest at home."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xueqing opened her mouth, sighed, then turned back in and closed the door.

She had wanted to propose going along, but Yang Chen's single sentence blocked her intent.

Having no choice, she could only go back to sleep.

In a little while, Chen Siyan came out, dressed in cute overalls, a white T-shirt, and a sun hat, looking pure and charming. However, her eyes were still half-closed, seeming like she hadn't fully awakened.

Yang Chen remarked, "Grab a jacket; it's cold in the morning!"

"Oh!" Chen Siyan went back in for a pink athletic jacket and came out with Yang Chen.

Both started the car and headed swiftly to the guard area.

It was just five o'clock now, and the streets were almost devoid of pedestrians and vehicles, so the journey was smooth and quick, arriving at the guard area soon.

Since Yang Chen had a pass, he faced no obstructions.

After parking the car at the gate of Elder Zhuo's courtyard, just as Yang Chen was about to get out, Elder Zhuo and the dean walked out with cheerful smiles.

Yang Chen got out and said, "Dean, Elder Zhuo, you two are up early!"

"It's not that early; we've just tidied up when you arrived; no one's faster than you!"

Yang Chen chuckled, inviting the two to board the car.

The two were not shy, directly sitting in the back seat, while Chen Siyan sat in the front.

"Let's go!" Qin Zhiyuan said.

Yang Chen nodded, starting the car.

As soon as the car started, two cars beside it also started, following behind.

Yang Chen glanced through the rearview mirror.

Elder Zhuo said, "Don't worry; it's my guards, including Muyang and Gao Hong."

"Oh!" Yang Chen nodded, reassured, and set off.

The car ran smoothly, taking elevated roads, exiting the inner loop, and getting onto the highway, heading straight for Wudan Mountain.

Wudan Mountain could be considered a scenic paradise, a famous tourist spot, and a Daoist sanctuary.

Even though it was just past five in the morning, tourist buses were already appearing on the road.

During the journey, Yang Chen asked, "Dean, what's our main purpose in going to Wudan Mountain?"

Qin Zhiyuan frowned slightly, peering out the window.

After a while, Qin Zhiyuan slowly said, "To introduce you to an old immortal."

"Old immortal?" Yang Chen raised a brow, smiled, "Are you referring to the abbot of Wudan Temple?"

Qin Zhiyuan shook his head, "An old immortal who can truly see through destiny!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen felt it's more like a fortune teller?

Is the dean aiming to have the old immortal divine Ye Xin's whereabouts?

That seems a bit far-fetched.
