Ghost Emperor Wild Wife: Dandy Eldest Miss Chapter 2255 - Yun Chutian’s Return (19)

Yun Chutian observed the chaos unfolding as tensions rose among the assembled figures. Wang Haotian’s desperate plea to explain himself was met with hostility, while Ouyang Yue was stunned into silence after being slapped by Ouyang Xun. Accusations flew as she claimed to have been framed for her disgraceful actions, which she desperately linked to Yun Chutian. However, Yun Chutian coolly revealed a mysterious book tied to Ouyang Yue, stirring unease and suspicion within the group, particularly as Ouyang Xun was asked to authenticate its contents, hinting at deeper revelations about his daughter’s true nature.

Ouyang Yue stared at the book, her brow furrowing in confusion. “I am certain these were the exact medicinal ingredients required,” she muttered.

Reclaiming the book with a faint smile, Yun Chutian spoke up. “To begin with, you admitted this isn’t Ouyang Yue’s script. Furthermore, you’ve verified that these ingredients are the ones used to suppress the plague. Since that is the case, would Ouyang Yue care to explain the origin of this manuscript?”

“I...” Panic flickered briefly in Ouyang Yue’s gaze. “Imperial Father, this manual was bestowed upon me by my Master. However, my Master values his privacy and strictly forbade me from disclosing his existence to the world.”

It was a plausible defense. Considering Ouyang Yue’s youth at the time, the claim that a hidden Master had been guiding her seemed believable to the onlookers.

“Your Master?” Yun Chutian’s eyes danced with amusement. “And where might this Master be residing? I would very much like to request an audience with him to discuss a few medical inquiries.”

Ouyang Yue fought to suppress her internal trembling while casting a sharp glare at Yun Chutian.

She was more aware than anyone of Yun Chutian’s medical prowess. Even as a young child, Yun Chutian’s talents had been formidable; after all these years, her skills must have reached a terrifying level.

If she presented a random fraud, she would be unmasked instantly. Bracing herself, Ouyang Yue steadied her voice. “My Master is not someone accessible to commoners. You should cease making such pointless demands.”

“That is of no concern. You know my strength well, and the man beside me is my brother. His power far exceeds mine. Simply provide the location, and I will personally go to invite your Master here.” Yun Chutian was clearly determined to tear away Ouyang Yue’s facade.

Biting her lip, Ouyang Yue countered, “Absolutely not. Your actions would bring disaster upon the entire Imperial family. My Master possesses immense power; you couldn't possibly withstand his fury!”

“If he is enraged, that is our burden to bear. He would naturally direct his anger toward us. I promise never to reveal that you were the one who disclosed his location. Now, will you tell us who he is?”

“You...” Ouyang Yue’s face turned a deep shade of crimson from rage. “Yun Chutian, are you truly set on making an enemy of me?”

Yun Chutian blinked innocently. “I merely wish to meet your teacher. How is that opposing you? If this Master truly exists, why are you so hesitant to name him? Unless, of course, his status is too insignificant to mention?”

“Ridiculous!” Fueled by a burst of temper, she blurted out, “My Master is one of the true gods of this continent, Yun Luofeng! A figure like her is someone you couldn't hope to meet in a hundred lifetimes, yet you dream of seeking her out?”

Yun Chutian had known since childhood that Ouyang Yue was easily provoked into saying anything to save face. However, she had not anticipated that Ouyang Yue would be bold enough to claim Yun Luofeng as her Master!

“Yun Luofeng?” Ouyang Xun’s brows knitted together. “Yun Xiao?”

The realization hit him suddenly. It was no wonder the name Yun Xiao sounded so familiar. Was he not one of the two legendary gods ruling this continent?

Wang Xuelian stood by, her expression frozen in pure shock.
