After Ye Qingyun finished introducing himself, he keenly noticed that the leader, who had been staring at him with a blank expression, had completely changed his aura.
It's hard to say whether this change is good or bad; it's like a previously relaxed string suddenly becoming taut, even taut to the point of breaking.
Ye Qingyun was taken aback and involuntarily took a step forward, wanting to appease the leader. However, after realizing what he was doing, he immediately stopped and took a step back.
Oh no! He almost succumbed to the allure of her beauty and took such a dangerous action. It's absolutely terrifying!
On the way here, Ye Qingyun heard a lot from the guards. They said that the leader was quite aloof and didn't like to talk to people, but as long as you didn't touch his sore spot, you would be treated like air and wouldn't be in any danger.
But he didn't do anything, he just introduced himself, so why did the leader react so strongly to him?
Is there a character in his name that is forbidden to be used, that cannot even be mentioned?
Ye Qingyun sensed something was wrong. He lowered his head and waited for the leader's reaction, while his mind raced, trying to think of a way to leave safely.

Gu Chenyuan could barely control his emotions; his blood was about to boil.
It's Qingyun... Qingyun is back.
But how could this be? Qingyun was already dead, dead in his arms. He watched her turn to ashes with his own eyes.
Gu Chenyuan rationally told himself that this must be a malicious imitator who had stolen Ye Qingyun's data from somewhere and then came to him to try to gain some benefit.
What he should do now is kill this person and teach him a lesson he won't forget, sending him to hell in the deepest agony.
Can……
He could spot the flaws in all his previous imitators at a glance, without exception.
But when faced with this person, his sixth sense seemed to fail him. Not only could he not find the slightest flaw, but it also made him want to hurry up and hug this person, kiss this person hard, and make this person never leave again.
Two thoughts intertwined and collided in his mind. Gu Chenyuan closed his eyes, and his supernatural power spread out uncontrollably, spinning wildly in this space.
Ye Qingyun was startled, and then he saw the other people in the room walking out quickly and easily, one of them even trying to pull him along.
But before that person could even touch him, a layer of black mist separated them.
The man didn't dare to continue pulling Ye Qingyun along, and soon, only Ye Qingyun and the leader remained in the entire conversation room.
A thick black mist of supernatural power swirled around Ye Qingyun. Ye Qingyun had seen the leader's combat videos and knew that the power of this black mist was enough to turn him into dust instantly and make him evaporate from the world.
But strangely, Ye Qingyun didn't feel scared. He looked at the cotton candy-like black mist and even had the urge to touch it.
Wait, what time is it now? How can he still be thinking about this?
What did this leader want to do by keeping him behind alone?
The black mist blocked Ye Qingyun's vision. He couldn't see the leader, but he could hear the sound of clothes rustling as someone stood up from a chair, and the heavy footsteps approaching him.
"Da, da, da."
The footsteps were already close by. Ye Qingyun subconsciously wanted to back away, but found that the formless black mist had condensed into a solid wall behind him, forcing him to stand still.
As the black mist dissipated, Ye Qingyun saw the leader standing just a step away from him, his bottomless black eyes staring at him without blinking.
So beautiful! Looking at her face up close, she even more evokes the feeling of first love!
Ye Qingyun stared at the man for a moment before realizing that it was improper for her to keep staring at a leader, so she lowered her head again.
“Raise your head,” Ye Qingyun heard the leader say, “look at me.”
Ye Qingyun then raised her head again and awkwardly met the leader's gaze.
Ye Qingyun gave a self-introduction at an elementary school level, intending to ease the awkward atmosphere: "Um... Hello? It's nice to meet you. My name is Ye Qingyun. I was sent here after passing that knowledge quiz."
"...Ye Qingyun?" The leader's voice was soft. "How long have you been calling yourself by that name?"
This question is really strange. Ye Qingyun replied with a blank look, "More than 20 years. I've had this name since I was born."
The leader narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at him, as if he were sizing him up, or perhaps he was trying to restrain himself.
A moment later, Ye Qingyun saw the leader sneer: "What is your purpose? What do you have to explain? You'd better say it now, otherwise, when you reveal a flaw..."
This seemingly random threat left Ye Qingyun completely bewildered.
His purpose? He just wanted to earn some money to secure his livelihood, what's wrong with that!
Ye Qingyun was a little angry: "You guys approached me after I cleared the game and told me that you would give me the reward money if I came, but now you're threatening me? If you don't want to give it to me, just say so, and I'll leave, okay?"
Ye Qingyun turned to leave, but found that all the paths around him were blocked by black mist, and he couldn't take a single step.
What are they doing? Are they trying to renege on their debt and destroy the evidence here?
The leader stared at him silently for a long time, his expression becoming increasingly restrained and tense. Ye Qingyun didn't know why, but for a moment he even felt that the leader wanted to hug him and coax him, to tell him not to be angry.
However, nothing happened. The leader was clearly incapable of doing something so absurd. He turned around, strode forward, and said coldly, "Come with me."
Ye Qingyun was enveloped by the black mist and could not follow forward. They walked out of the conversation room and walked for a long time before arriving at a study.
The study was spacious and large, filled with books, and several uncollected documents lay on the desk.
Judging from the layout of this study, this is probably the study where this leader usually uses it. Such an important and confidential place—and they just brought him in like that?
Ye Qingyun watched as the leader sat down at the desk, took out a pen and paper, and began writing something on it.
After a short while, the chief finished writing, looked up at him, and said, "Come here."
Ye Qingyun walked over, and the leader pushed the paper in front of him. Ye Qingyun could see what was written on it.
The paper contained a problem that was far more complex than any of the problems he had done before. It was on a completely different level, requiring multiple steps of calculation, and there was no way to just guess an option.
Ye Qingyun had never studied the knowledge of this world. Logically speaking, he shouldn't even be able to understand the question. However, when he looked at the question, a sense of confidence and ideas welled up in his heart, and he wanted to pick up a pen and start writing nonsense.
"I'll give you two minutes to solve it." The leader, whose face resembled his first love, stared intently at him, as if trying to capture every expression on his face. "If you can't solve it... then this won't be where you'll be staying."
