Seeing that the woman's expression was not right, Ouyang Qingming probably guessed what was going on, but he pretended to be nonchalant and said with a smile, "Oh, I know you're worried about me, that's why you came. But my injury is not a big deal anymore."

Unexpectedly, the woman's face became even more unsightly.

The woman looked at Ouyang Qingming seriously and asked, "I'm going to ask you something, and you must answer me honestly."

Ouyang Qingming frowned slightly and said, "Mom, ask away!"

"Are you colluding with evil ghosts?" the woman asked bluntly.

She felt that there was no need to beat around the bush with her son. It was either yes or no.

Before Ouyang Qingming opened his mouth, the woman was very nervous, because she didn't want to hear her son admit to this.

Ouyang Qingming was stunned. He didn't expect the woman to ask this suddenly, and subconsciously glanced at Ji Lao.

Ji Lao looked helpless, wanting to say something, but now was not the time to say anything.

Because if he spoke, he would be exposed.

"What are you looking at Ji Lao for? Are you really colluding with evil ghosts?" the woman asked again.

In fact, she had already guessed something from Ouyang Qingming's reaction, but she was unwilling to admit it.

There were some things she could turn a blind eye to, but this was not one of them, because it concerned the entire Ouyang family. If something went wrong, it would not only be Ouyang Qingming who would be in trouble, but the entire Ouyang family.

"Mom, what are you talking about? How could I collude with evil ghosts? Did someone gossip in front of you?" Ouyang Qingming said with a serious face.

The woman looked at Ouyang Qingming with some disappointment. It wasn't that she didn't believe her son, but that she knew her son too well. As long as Ouyang Qingming lied, his expression would become particularly serious.

She really didn't understand. The Ouyang family already had power and influence. Why did Ouyang Qingming still want to collude with evil ghosts?

"Mom will ask you one last time, have you colluded with evil ghosts?" The woman was still a little unwilling to give up. After all, he was her son, and she really couldn't accept it.

Ouyang Qingming suddenly didn't dare to look directly at the woman, because he was afraid of being seen through.

After calming down his emotions, Ouyang Qingming looked at the woman with a calm expression and said, "No."

This time, the woman was completely disappointed.

The son she had worked so hard to cultivate had actually fallen to this point!

"You've really let me down!"

After saying that, the woman got up and left.

Ouyang Qingming wanted to stop the woman, but Ji Lao gave him a look, so he had to give up and just let the assistant follow the woman.

Soon, only Ouyang Qingming and Ji Lao were left in the private room.

Ouyang Qingming took the lead and asked Ji Lao in confusion, "Ji Lao, how did my mom know about this? Didn't you just arrive in Yun City?"

"It was that kid Yuan Mu Ye who told her. I originally wanted to teach him a lesson, but I didn't expect him to say this."

Ji Lao was very annoyed when he thought of this.

He and Yuan Mu Ye had formed a feud.

Ouyang Qingming slammed the table and cursed, "It's Yuan Mu Ye again. This kid almost crippled me, and now he's telling my mom about this. If my mom tells my dad about this, we'll both have to roll back to the first capital city!"

He had been planning in Yun City for so long, and he was definitely not willing to go back like this.

Ji Lao thought for a moment and said, "The best way right now is to silence Yuan Mu Ye forever."

"Can you take care of him?" Ouyang Qingming glanced at Ji Lao, his eyes full of murderous intent.

Ji Lao smiled noncommittally, without saying a word, but from his eyes, one could feel a strong murderous intent.

After Yuan Mu Ye learned of all this, he only found it ridiculous.

He didn't stay too long. He left the hotel directly, and then found a crowded place to collect negative emotions.

What he needed most now was negative emotion points.

Even experts in the late Xiantian realm had appeared, so it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before a Grade Four Earth-level evil ghost appeared in Yun City.

With Yuan Mu Ye's current strength, he had no way to deal with a Grade Four Earth-level evil ghost.

So he had to improve his strength as soon as possible!

No matter how powerful others were, they couldn't possibly be by your side 24 hours a day to protect you, so only by becoming stronger yourself was the real deal.

Yuan Mu Ye collected sixty to seventy thousand negative emotion points in one afternoon.

This was a huge sum for him!

After collecting the negative emotion points, Yuan Mu Ye went straight home.

When he returned home, Li Pangpang was already back.

"Where's Jin Nuoyan?" Yuan Mu Ye didn't see Jin Nuoyan, so he asked Li Pangpang.

Li Pangpang sighed and said, "She left. That woman really doesn't know how to be grateful. You were the one who saved her. She should have at least said thank you, right? But she left without saying a word. She even spoke ill of you before she left. I almost couldn't take it anymore and was about to fight her."

Without asking, Yuan Mu Ye knew what Jin Nuoyan said about him, probably about him raising evil ghosts.

But in his case, it didn't really count as raising them, because he had never let Yuan Xiao Yao and the others do anything bad.

Yuan Mu Ye looked at Li Pangpang and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did she say anything else?"

"What else did she say? She said that the reason she was injured was all because of you!" Li Pangpang replied.

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye immediately felt a little unhappy. What did she mean by "all because of him"?

If it wasn't because he brought Jin Nuoyan back, she might have already died!

Now, it was good that she was actually pushing the responsibility onto him!

"Forget it!" Yuan Mu Ye was too lazy to argue so much. After all, Jin Nuoyan was just a woman. Women always had a few days a month when their temper was very bad.

Li Pangpang originally wanted to say something, but he couldn't remember what he wanted to say for a moment. After watching Yuan Mu Ye enter the room, he turned and went to the kitchen.

Yuan Mu Ye came to the room, took off his coat, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, sat on the bed, and then entered the system.

He directly spent 50,000 negative emotion points to upgrade the Cold Ice Palm!

In this way, his Cold Ice Palm would reach the forty-sixth level!

After Yuan Mu Ye began to upgrade the Cold Ice Palm, a large amount of cold air instantly surged around him.

The cold air surged into the living room and kitchen. Li Pangpang, who was cooking, felt the cold and shivered involuntarily.

This was not the first time he had felt such intense cold, so he knew without looking that Yuan Mu Ye was practicing.

Li Pangpang sighed helplessly and said, "Alas, when will I be able to break through as quickly as Lao Yuan."
