"What?" Su Yun stared at Ye Xiao as he held a bunch of keys from her desk in his hand, completely dumbfounded.

It turned out that Ye Xiao didn't want "that" after all; he simply wanted his own keys to go rest at his place. Su Yun realized she had overthought the situation. Why did her mind contain so much clutter?

"Sister Su, why do I feel like our conversation just now was a bit off? But, I can't quite put my finger on what was wrong," Ye Xiao said with a puzzled look at Su Yun.

Su Yun quickly replied, "What… no, you're overthinking it; weren't you going to rest? Go ahead, you don't study in class anyway."

Ye Xiao didn't leave immediately but said with a smile, "Sister Su, you seem really eager for me to leave the office—wait, did Sister Su just think about something else just now?"

Ye Xiao was obviously doing it on purpose. Being as clever as he was, if he couldn't see through this, then he wouldn't be Ye Xiao.

"What's always on your mind?" Su Yun's cheeks gradually turned red, but she still tried to appear calm.

Ye Xiao shrugged and said, "Okay, maybe I thought too much."

And with that, Ye Xiao immediately left the office!

Seeing Ye Xiao leave, Su Yun let out a long sigh, touched her own burning cheeks, and murmured to herself, "Su Yun, oh Su Yun, aren't you pure anymore? How could you have such thoughts? Could you really become a shameless woman? Luckily, Ye Xiao didn't see through it, otherwise, it would have been so embarrassing."

Su Yun said this to herself when suddenly, the office door was opened again.

Ye Xiao popped his head in.

"What… what are you doing now?" Su Yun asked, somewhat panicked.

Ye Xiao chuckled and replied, "Sister Su, I wasn't planning anything; I just wanted to tell you not to think too much. If you really want to try, I'm always ready to help; helping others is my style. Uh, Sister Su, your face is quite red."

Ye Xiao laughed heartily and withdrew his head.

Ye Xiao's words stunned Su Yun fiercely, then she quickly realized that Ye Xiao understood everything; he certainly knew what she had thought just now.

Thinking of this, Su Yun's cheeks flushed even more intensely.

And thinking about how Ye Xiao had just told her he was 'always ready,' wasn't that hinting at something? Oh no, did Ye Xiao really think of her as a shameless woman?

At this moment, Su Yun didn't blame Ye Xiao at all; instead, she felt she wasn't good enough, and the problem must be with her.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao, humming an unknown tune, happily left the academic building, delighted by the expression Su Yun had worn earlier and the thoughts she might have triggered.

Then, Ye Xiao quickly arrived at Su Yun's residence!

A girl's residence is always clean and tidy, and Su Yun's place was particularly spotless.

However, Ye Xiao showed no intention of preserving that cleanliness and tidiness, and after entering Su Yun's residence, he poured himself a cup of water to drink, checked a few rooms, found that the bed in Su Yun's room was nicer, and thus, jumped right onto her warm bed and sat cross-legged.

Ye Xiao was here not to play or to rest, but to practice the Mad God Skill!

Ye Xiao quickly got into the zone; due to the Mad God Skill, the fierce True Qi stormed wildly within him, making him feel somewhat strained, yet he could still bear it.

The Nine Yang Divine Skill, originally a very masculine Internal Power True Qi, was itself very strong in Ye Xiao's body, but now, the Mad God Skill, not only was it strong, but it also added ferocity to that strength.

However, there was a benefit in that, with the fierceness added, the Nine Yang True Qi was clearly stronger than before.

If the Nine Yang True Qi were treated as a weapon, then this violent force served to enhance the weapon around the edges, making the already unbeatable Nine Yang True Qi even more invincible!

Time always flew during cultivation, and Ye Xiao hadn't felt it was long when he heard knocking. Slowly, he opened his eyes, and a blood-red light shot from his eyes, disappearing immediately, leaving his eyes brighter and more vivid.

Ye Xiao got out of bed, went to the door, and opened it.

Standing at the door were Su Yun, Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, and Shen Qiuyu, four stunning beauties.

"Hi, beauties!" Ye Xiao greeted the women with a cheeky grin.

However, after Ye Xiao finished speaking, he found that whether it was Su Yun, Ling Shuya, or Zhou Yuyan, they were all staring at him in shock.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but think, had he become even more handsome? Why were they all admiring him so much?

"Can you not look at me like that, please? I know I'm handsome, but you gazing at me so adoringly still makes me shy; after all, I'm an introverted person," Ye Xiao said shamelessly.

In the past, at least Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan among these four stunning beauties would have made a sarcastic remark, but now, Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan seemed surprised as well and said nothing!

Ye Xiao found it even weirder, obviously, he had no idea what was going on with these beauties. Had they all had a stroke?

It wasn't until a good ten seconds later that Shen Qiuyu was the first to react, looking at Ye Xiao with disbelief, she said, "Ye... Ye Xiao, your hair!"

Hearing Shen Qiuyu's words, Ye Xiao felt a bit puzzled and smiled as he said, "Miss Shen, do you think my hairstyle is very handsome now? Actually, I style it like this every day!"

"Your hair color is turning red!" Ling Shuya pointed at Ye Xiao's hair and exclaimed loudly.

Turning red?

Hearing Ling Shuya's words, Ye Xiao wondered if this girl had lost her mind. How could a normal person's hair turn red? Being from Yan Country, Ye Xiao was pretty proud of his sleek, jet-black hair, unlike some Westerners who turn completely white at a young age.

"Stop talking nonsense. Are you color blind? It's clearly black. I don't have the habit of dyeing my hair!" Ye Xiao said proudly.

After all, having shiny black hair as a person from Yan Country represented healthiness.

Ling Shuya pointed at Ye Xiao and said, "Ye Xiao, go look in the mirror, hurry up and check your hair!"

Ye Xiao, feeling a bit puzzled by Ling Shuya's insistence but seeing how serious she was and, more importantly, noticing everyone else looking at him with great surprise, he half-believed and half-doubted as he went to the restroom in the house, where there was a mirror. When Ye Xiao walked over and saw his reflection in the mirror, he was completely stunned.

Red, no, more precisely, it was a dark red, mixed in with black.

It was like a color resulting from a mixture of black and red.

Why had his hair color changed? Ye Xiao was extremely puzzled. His hair was clearly black, but now...

At that moment, Su Yun, Shen Qiuyu, Ling Shuya, and Zhou Yuyan quickly joined Ye Xiao in the restroom, looking towards him.

"Ye Xiao, what on earth is going on? Have you been secretly dyeing your hair here?" Zhou Yuyan asked in bewilderment, though she herself didn't find it a convincing explanation.

Ye Xiao didn't speak, his eyes fixed on his hair in the mirror, mulling over the situation. However, at that moment, he noticed that the redness in his dark red hair seemed to be fading.

Could it be related to the Mad God Skill? Ye Xiao secretly pondered. After all, he had only been practicing the Mad God Skill before this, nothing else.

"Look, the red in Ye Xiao's hair is fading," Ling Shuya suddenly exclaimed.

By this time, not only Ling Shuya had noticed, everyone saw it. Although the speed of the color change was initially slow, about three minutes later, the redness in the hair completely disappeared, being replaced by jet-black short hair.

"It's back to normal," Ye Xiao said with a slight smile, murmuring as he looked at his reflection in the mirror.

Everyone watched as Ye Xiao smiled at the mirror, and they all felt quite puzzled!

"Ye Xiao, are you okay?" Su Yun asked worriedly.

Ye Xiao shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm fine. Don't worry, this is normal."

"Normal? Your hair just changed color!" Ling Shuya said, astonished.

Ye Xiao didn't want too many people, especially those close to him, to know he practiced the Mad God Skill, a very dangerous martial arts scripture. If they knew, they would certainly stop him.

"This must be because of some cultivation technique I practiced," Su Yun suddenly suggested.

Su Yun used to be a martial artist with rich experiences outside, so she immediately recognized that it might be some unique cultivation technique.

Before Ye Xiao could speak, Ling Shuya quickly asked, "Sister Su, you say it's a cultivation technique? Then it must be a powerful one, right? Ye Xiao, what unique cultivation technique did you practice?"

"Hehe, I don't know; it could be because the inner strength I practiced is a peerless divine skill," Ye Xiao said.

When Ling Shuya heard the phrase 'peerless divine skill', her interest peaked, and she quickly inquired, "What is this peerless divine skill?"

"Want to know?" Ye Xiao responded with a proud smile.

"I want to know, tell me," Ling Shuya said.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Well, listen carefully then, the peerless divine skill is..."

Ye Xiao deliberately dragged his sentence.

"Come on, just say it. Why stop halfway?" Ling Shuya said, unsatisfied.

Ye Xiao laughed and said, "The peerless divine skill is naturally just the peerless divine skill!"
