Ye Xuan remained calm and smiled slightly as he said, "A trick you've never seen before."
The Curse Tree's lips twitched, "Isn't that just stating the obvious?"
Ye Xuan slowly stood up, smiling as he said, "Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand; it's meaningless to you."
The Curse Tree snorted coldly, "Do you know why I'm annoyed with you? It's because you always talk in that tone, making it really hard for people to like you."
Ye Xuan replied, "If you truly liked me, I'd be really scared."
The Curse Tree couldn't help but curl its lips and then said, "Move along quickly, let's call our affair settled, and stop scheming against me. I'm too old to endure your plotting."
Ye Xuan asked in surprise, "When did I ever scheme against you?"
The Curse Tree gnashed its teeth in hatred, pretending! Just pretending!
You schemed away the essence of my being, and you're saying there was no scheming involved?!
"Scram!" the Curse Tree ordered with a single word.
