At Yun Youyou's words, Leng Xie's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he had not yet been formally appointed Young Clan Leader, his designation was already an ironclad fact.
Unless, in the future, the clan produced a genius more outstanding than him and better suited to the Taiyin Tribe's heritage, someone might possibly replace him.
But was that possible? Obviously not!
Not to mention the Mingxu Star River—even among the dozen or so nearby star rivers, there could be no such genius.
"Youyou, you defend Su Mo so fiercely. What exactly is your relationship with him?"
Leng Xie did not argue with Yun Youyou over the matter of the Young Clan Leader, because it was meaningless. Instead, he had become intensely curious about her relationship with Su Mo.
What kind of relationship could make her turn against him for Su Mo's sake?
The entire wilderness forest fell deathly silent. Everyone stared at Leng Xie and Yun Youyou in astonishment. They had never expected these two favored sons and daughters of heaven from the Taiyin Tribe to clash head-on over Su Mo.
Still, everyone was exceedingly curious. What exactly was Yun Youyou's relationship with Su Mo?
If their relationship were not deep, she could not possibly offend Leng Xie for Su Mo's sake, could she?
"We are merely friends," Yun Youyou said blandly. She was not lying. At most, she and Su Mo could only be considered friends.
Strictly speaking, they had only met a few times. They did not even truly count as friends.
"Friends? More like lovers, I would say."
Leng Xie sneered inwardly. He did not believe it was as simple as an ordinary friendship.
Everyone's expressions changed upon hearing this. That was indeed possible. Su Mo possessed monstrous talent and was not bad-looking either; it would not be strange
