Ye Xiao's rest was naturally not the rest of ordinary people, but rather sitting cross-legged on the bed, beginning to practice the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

It was midnight.

At this time, a martial artist's senses are the most acute. Relatively speaking, Ye Xiao was even more sensitive, so he easily discovered that there was someone nearby, and very close to the room where he was staying.

Ye Xiao's eyes slowly opened, his eyes brightened, and his whole person disappeared from the spot and quickly ran outside.

Qiu Mountain had no power equipment installed, so at night, it relied solely on the moonlight for illumination.

At this moment, on top of the roof of the side room.

Ye Xiao stood on one corner of the roof, his eyes watching the person standing opposite, a woman with a veiled face. Ye Xiao couldn't see her face clearly, but he saw her very beautiful eyes, and surprisingly, these eyes showed him care.

A veiled woman looking at him with eyes full of kindness, is this considered an insult?

"Senior, who are you?" Ye Xiao finally spoke first.

"It's not the time for you to know." The veiled woman said kindly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao thought to himself, either say who you are, or don't say anything. What does 'it's not the time for you to know' mean? Could it be that this veiled woman knows him?

"Senior, you seem to know me. Who exactly are you? The person who came to Cold Moon Sect to deliver a message today, I presume, was you." Ye Xiao looked at the veiled woman and said.

"Know you?" The veiled woman, hearing Ye Xiao's words, suddenly smiled knowingly, as if hearing a very funny term, then said, "You are quite like your father, very arrogant, but compared to your father, your arrogance is just a drop in the ocean."

Father?

When Ye Xiao heard the veiled woman mention the word 'father,' he was immediately very surprised and quickly said to the veiled woman, "Senior, do you know about my heritage?"

"Alright, I must go. You have many opponents, and your path is still long," the veiled woman said with a soft smile.

Seeing that the veiled woman had barely spoken before leaving, how could Ye Xiao let her go? Ye Xiao's figure flickered, suddenly arriving less than three meters away from the veiled woman, and coldly said, "Senior, if you don't clarify, I won't let you leave. How do you know about my father's affairs?"

"You want to stop me?" The veiled woman saw Ye Xiao approaching and immediately laughed.

Ye Xiao said, "I am not talented, but stopping you should not be a problem."

"You are quite confident, but I must tell you, confidence is not arrogance. When you don't know the depth of others' strength, never use this tone to speak. This world is vast, with many people stronger than you. You must understand this principle," the veiled woman smiled slightly and said.

Ye Xiao felt annoyed hearing what seemed to be a reprimand from the veiled woman and was about to speak, but the veiled woman suddenly disappeared. When Ye Xiao looked again, she was already more than ten meters away from him.

Ye Xiao was stunned. How could this person's speed be so fast?

"Don't go!" Ye Xiao was determined tonight to know something from this person.

But just as Ye Xiao was about to pursue, the person had vanished without a trace.

This speed?

Ye Xiao almost felt like crying. Judging by this speed, this person's skill was simply extraordinary. He originally thought his own skill was decent, but compared to this person, it's just child's play.

Ye Xiao sighed; it seemed he wouldn't find answers. Just as he prepared to return to the room, he suddenly discovered a white envelope at the spot where the veiled woman had stood. Ye Xiao immediately stepped forward to pick up the envelope, looked around, and then returned to the room.

Sitting under the candlelight, Ye Xiao opened the envelope!

However, upon opening the letter, Ye Xiao was instantly stunned, because it was indeed a letter addressed to him. Surprisingly, the way the letter addressed him was 'My son, Ye Xiao'.

My son, Ye Xiao?

What does this mean? Ye Xiao couldn't possibly not understand.

"Mother?" Ye Xiao instinctively uttered the two words.

The only ones who could address Ye Xiao this way must be his parents.

Thinking of the gentle smile of the veiled woman, it was precisely the tender affection of a mother looking at her son.

Ye Xiao's eyes turned red in an instant. He put away the letter, quickly jumped out of the room, and directly climbed onto the roof again, shouting loudly, "Where are you? Come out, you know how hard I have been searching for you? Come out, mother!"

Ye Xiao's tears flooded out of his eyes as he shouted, his voice loud and filled with inner strength. Probably at this moment, everyone in the Cold Moon Sect could hear it.

However, Ye Xiao didn't care about these things at all, nor did he think too much about it. He just wanted to see his parents, that's all.

But, no matter how many times he called out, the masked woman seemed to have disappeared and never appeared.

Instead, the Cold Moon Sect Master, Han Qinghe, several elders of the Cold Moon Sect, and some disciples hurried over.

Evidently, the Cold Moon Sect was very quiet, and at this midnight hour, Ye Xiao's shouting made people think something was wrong.

"What's going on?" Han Qinghe was also standing on the roof at this time, looking at Ye Xiao with confusion in his eyes.

Ye Xiao didn't speak but instead jumped down from the roof disappointedly and walked back to his room in a daze.

Han Qinghe hadn't expected Ye Xiao to ignore him, and the other elders were immediately very displeased with this. However, in the end, they all left at Han Qinghe's behest, but Ye Xiao's behavior was so unusual that everyone except Han Qinghe found it quite strange.

Ye Xiao returned to his room, sat once again under the candlelight, and suddenly many things popped into his mind. Suddenly, he remembered that he had not finished reading the letter.

So, Ye Xiao immediately took out the letter again and began to read it seriously.

The letter was written on three sheets of paper, and after reading these three sheets, Ye Xiao himself was stunned.

At the same time, he finally understood why his parents couldn't meet him. The reason lay in the fact that he also had deep grievances, and these grievances were so significant that he could not make even the slightest hint of them public, or else it might put his life in danger.

The masked woman was indeed Ye Xiao's biological mother. In the letter, she told Ye Xiao that she knew Ye Xiao wanted to see her very much, but now was not the time. She pointed out that Ye Xiao's father had an incident many years ago, but it wasn't a simple accident; it was the doing of a martial artist organization called the Soul Sect. The fragments of the Nine Yang Divine Skill were left by her on Qiu Mountain, and the fifth scroll, the Coiled Dragon Moon, was temporarily left with the Fu family. Even Fu Tianjue was unaware of it. The remaining five scrolls, three were hidden in Yan Country, and two were hidden abroad. However, Ye Xiao must find them on his own. Once Ye Xiao learns the eighth scroll of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, she will truly appear. Until then, Ye Xiao must not show off in any way; otherwise, it might catch the Soul Sect's attention.

Soul Sect!

In Ye Xiao's eyes, this organization was nothing more than legendary, but he hadn't expected it to be real.

Perhaps, just like how the Rothschild family is viewed by ordinary people, most people only regard it as a legendary family. Yet, no one would expect that it is an actually existing family.

After reading the letter, Ye Xiao's mother did not mention in the letter what kind of person Ye Xiao's father actually was, only saying he was a man who could truly turn the tide.

A man who could truly turn the tide, this was definitely not just anyone. Ye Xiao was even very eager to know just how amazing his father was.

Early the next morning!

At the break of dawn, Wangg Yin arrived at Ye Xiao's room.

"You're up very early!" Ye Xiao said with a smile to Wangg Yin.

Wangg Yin said, "The Sect Master instructed that we leave at first light, saying he doesn't want Junior Sister Yulu to see."

"Junior Sister Yulu?" Ye Xiao looked at Wangg Yin and said, "You really roll that off your tongue smoothly."

But Wangg Yin's face reddened slightly, and he said, "We're of the same generation, so naturally, I should call her Junior Sister."

"It seems I won't be able to see Yulu. I suppose she'll be well taken care of here." Ye Xiao said with a smile.

Wangg Yin said, "The Sect Master takes good care of Junior Sister Yulu. It's said that last night Junior Sister Yulu rested with the Sect Master. It's really hard to imagine that someone as cold as the Sect Master would rest with his disciple. The Sect Master doesn't have a daughter, so I think he considers Yulu as his daughter."

Ye Xiao heard this and secretly laughed; what do you mean by considering her a daughter? She is clearly his daughter. But Ye Xiao knew that it was best not to expose this relationship.

"Alright, let's go!" Ye Xiao said, and he and Wangg Yin walked out of the room and headed straight down the mountain.

"Do you not have any luggage?" Ye Xiao asked Wangg Yin, who like him, had brought nothing with him.

Wangg Yin said, "Items from Cold Moon Mountain are rare in the secular world. Besides, many martial artists are human; they also crave things from the Cold Moon Sect, so it's better not to bring anything. This set of clothes was also brought to me by Junior Brother Hu Zhihan when he went down the mountain."

"You have a pretty good relationship with Hu Zhihan?" Ye Xiao smiled and asked.

Wangg Yin quickly said, "I have the same relationship with all my brothers and sisters. Junior Brother Zhihan is a bit ostentatious, so, in fact, our relationship is not close."

Ye Xiao listened to Wangg Yin's words but didn't say anything; he just chuckled softly.

Now that Wangg Yin was going down the mountain with him, Ye Xiao thought, his words would be more cautious.

Just as Ye Xiao and Wangg Yin were walking to the position of the Cold Moon Sect's stone tablet, Wangg Yin suddenly looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Mr. Ye, wait a moment!"

Ye Xiao looked at Wangg Yin with confusion.

Wangg Yin then turned and knelt on the ground, kowtowing three times to the Cold Moon Sect.
