After reading that email, Yang Lingxi felt scared. She wasn't stupid; she knew what sort of controversy she had gotten herself into, so she chose to leave quickly.

Qian Guran guessed correctly; she was indeed of the Guest of Fate origin, assigned by Yan Congfei, an Observing Body Sect Sorcerer and Tier Three Medical Practitioner. Yan Congfei was also a major boss locally, with numerous businesses.

Yang Lingxi's parents were once executives in Boss Yan's enterprises. Her father passed away quite early, and Yan Congfei took great care of their family, especially her mother.

Yang Lingxi knew the relationship between her mother and this Master Yan, but she didn't say anything. After all, her father was gone, and her mother wasn't old and quite attractive; it was impossible for her to give up men from then on.

Moreover, Master Yan was not an ordinary person; he was mysterious and powerful, able to provide more and better help to their mother-daughter duo.

Yes, Yang Lingxi called him Master Yan because, reportedly, her father once practiced techniques with Yan Congfei, but one did not enter the sect while the other became a true sorcerer.

Yang Lingxi also wanted to become a sorcerer. Once you've witnessed the magic of techniques, who could resist wanting it? But many things in the world aren't given to you just because you want them.

Yan Congfei taught her many things, including auxiliary skills for Foundation Establishment, but hadn't imparted a true technique yet, only telling her to lay a strong foundation first.

If the foundation had issues, rashly forcing oneself to practice techniques not only wouldn't help but could be harmful, even severing the path of cultivation, saying this happened to her father back then.

But when is the foundation considered ready? Yang Lingxi had graduated with a master's degree before finally getting the opportunity.

Yan Congfei assigned her a task, claiming it as a test; if she completed it, he would introduce her to formally apprentice for Micro-Entry Skill. If she couldn't refine in entry level, Yan Congfei could personally teach Observing Body Skill.

The promise was somewhat odd; Yan Congfei himself was a sorcerer of the Observing Body Sect, yet he was to introduce Yang Lingxi to practice Micro-Entry Skill first. But Yan Congfei didn't explain, so Yang Lingxi didn't ask further.

Presumably, Yan Congfei was familiar with the sorcerers of the Micro Realm Sect and felt she was more suited to refine Micro-Entry Skill.

Yan Congfei instructed Yang Lingxi to find a way to enter Tengxin Qi Yuan Branch, then handle He Kao, secretly gathering intelligence about He Kao, primarily investigating his suspicious social relationships.

Regarding the job at Tengxin Branch, if she completed the task, and Yang Lingxi didn't want to continue, Yan Congfei promised a well-paid position in his company, offering the employment contract, just missing her signature and date.

Yang Lingxi wasn't particularly interested in the job and position Yan Congfei offered, but the chance to formally apprentice in the Magic Sect and study techniques was an irresistible temptation... Yang Lingxi thus arrived at Qi Yuan to carry out this "simple" task.

To Yang Lingxi, such a thing was not illegal; colleagues having a good feeling, a girl pursuing a handsome guy was only natural.

Especially after getting to know He Kao personally, Yang Lingxi even entertained other thoughts, feeling it wouldn't be bad to date a boyfriend like this.

She once had the notion of turning fiction into reality, even privately asking Yan Congfei if she could continue the relationship after dealing with He Kao.

She asked with a bit of selfish intention. Because many acquaintances back home privately gossiped that Boss Yan was playing the mother-daughter double role, thinking she too had a relationship with Yan Congfei.

In fact, Yang Lingxi herself didn't have that kind of relationship with Yan Congfei, at least not currently, so she wanted to escape such controversy's influence, and didn't want to stay back home after graduation.

Yan Congfei's response was—finish the task first.

This might be a push or perhaps approval; he didn't straightforwardly say yes or no.

To Yang Lingxi, as long as she used a bit of strategy, someone like He Kao, a homebody programmer, would be easy to deal with. She was very confident in her skills and charm.

But after contacting him, she found that He Kao wasn't so easily won over, so she had to put in more effort...

Just at this time, He Kao suddenly flipped. If it was because of the rumors, it would be understandable, but He Kao directly pinpointed—that she was under someone's instruction, which shocked Yang Lingxi.

She reassured herself that none of her actions in the company showed any flaws.

She reported this to Yan Congfei, who gave her new instructions, telling her to change her approach and teach He Kao a lesson... She had yet to react before being called by Qian Guran again.

Qian Guran revealed his identity as a sorcerer and dismantled her tactics face-to-face.

Yang Lingxi initially thought she could still defend herself; wasn't it just a girl chasing a boy, using a bit of cunning... But after reading that email, she finally understood.

She understood why He Kao was wary and why Qian Guran was suspicious. Because many people had previously targeted He Kao, treating him as a Hidden Moth, only to find that the person wasn't a Hidden Moth, yet they provoked a real Hidden Moth.

So many sorcerers were missing, shaking the Magic Sect's Hall of Sect Rules. The hall even tried to lure the Hidden Moth by publicly inviting them, but couldn't achieve the goal.

Yang Lingxi dared not stay here anymore. She didn't dare to betray Yan Congfei nor provoke Qian Guran, so she boldly escaped first and reported afterward, directly fleeing the place of controversy.
