Chapter 489: Being Watched 2
Seeing her intently examining the Soul-Locking Silk, Li Yuan couldn't help but chuckle and pinch her cheek: "You like it? It's yours."
He would never hesitate to give her anything she liked.
Ye Fei shook her head: "No need, I just thought of a hidden weapon that's very similar to your Soul-Locking Silk, which might be of some reference value..."
"Besides, isn't everything that's yours mine too?"
These words were spoken without any politeness. Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and hugged her, kissing her on the lips: "Yes, everything that is mine is yours."

On the other side.
The cathedral is brightly lit under the night sky.
Inside the sanctuary, the great divine messenger stood by the window with his hands behind his back, dressed in a flawless white robe, his body radiating a faint glow.
He stared solemnly out the window, several scrolls stacked together on the table.
When there was a knock on the door, he glanced to the side and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
Another man in white robes entered. He bowed to the High Priest and said, "High Priest, the investigation has failed."
A flicker of emotion crossed the Great God's eyes: "Failure?"
"Yes, the guards assigned to investigate Ye Fei have all disappeared without a trace, as if they've vanished into thin air. I'm afraid they've already..."
The Great Divine Envoy stared coldly at the white-robed man before him: "You mean, Ye Fei, a junior at the Spirit King level, silently killed several Spirit Sect level guards?"
The man in white dared not utter a sound, but silently lowered his head even further, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
The Spirit King killed the Spirit Sect? This is utterly unbelievable!
At that moment, another figure slowly walked into the sanctuary.
The high envoy glanced at the person who walked in, nodded slightly, and waved to the white-robed man: "You can go out first."
"Yes, sir!"
The door closed, and the Great Envoy went straight to the point: "Moon Mark, I heard you saw that little girl named Ye Fei at the summit of Panlong Peak?"
"Yes." The young man known as Moonmark was one of the Seven Divine Envoys of the Holy Order.
"What do you think of her?" the High Priestess asked again.
The Seven Divine Envoys recalled the moment they met Ye Fei atop Panlong Peak, pondered for a few seconds, and replied, "She's a clever little girl."
How do you know?
"I led a few saints to the summit of Panlong in search of divine artifacts, and we happened to encounter her and her team. It was already late at night, and it was not a good time to travel, so we spent six thousand gold coins to get a piece of land from her to spend the night."
The Great Envoy narrowed his eyes slightly: "Six thousand gold coins for one night? This little girl certainly knows how to make money."
The Seven Gods smiled slightly: "That's why I said she's a clever little girl."
"Speaking of which, the Great Divine Envoy seems quite interested in this little girl?" The Seven Divine Envoys slowly adjusted his sleeves and glanced at the scroll on the table without making a sound.
The Great God nodded, walked to the desk, and ran his finger across the scrolls: "I am indeed very interested, but what is interesting is her background."
"Her background?"
“You became a divine messenger five years ago, so you don’t know what happened more than a decade ago.” The high divine messenger sat down, his voice suddenly turning cold: “More than a decade ago, the Holy Church hunted down a demon.”
"This demon is named Jiang Xun."
The Seven Divine Envoys raised an eyebrow: "What is the relationship between this demon and Ye Fei?"
The great envoy unfurled one of the scrolls, on which was a portrait.
The seven divine envoys took a few steps closer, and upon seeing the portrait on the scroll, their expressions changed to one of shock: "This, this is...!"
