"Face?" Ye Xiao toyed with the invitation in his hand, a playful smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "He's testing my limits. If I don't go, he'll know I'm not easy to deal with; if I do go, he'll be able to gauge my strength."
"So, are you planning to go or not?"
"Go, why not?" Ye Xiao stood up, straightening his robe. "Free tea, why not drink it? Besides, I want to see what game Su Yuanshan is playing."
That night, the moon shone brightly in the sparse sky.
Following the address on the invitation, Ye Xiao arrived at a pavilion belonging to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion in the Ten Thousand Soul Mountain Range.
The pavilion was situated atop a small hill, surrounded by arrays that made it impossible for outsiders to glimpse the situation inside.
"Mr. Ye, please come in," a maid greeted at the door, respectfully leading Ye Xiao into the courtyard.
