Lin Youxian was still somewhat skeptical.

She frowned, then looked at Ai Youwei and said, "Ai Youwei, you're Gu Jian's third junior sister, right? Tell me this time, what kind of person is Gu Jian? If you refuse to tell me, I'll kill your senior sister."

Ai Youwei stated that Lin Youxian's threats against her were completely ineffective.

However, seeing that Lin Youxian seemed to have no ill intentions, she snorted and said, "Of course my senior brother is super invincible! He is the most handsome and best person in the world!"

Lin Youxian frowned and said, "Be objective, don't exaggerate."

Ai Youwei snorted and said, "Who's exaggerating? Senior Brother is the most perfect person in the world. There is no one more perfect than him."

Seeing Ai Youwei's flattering manner, Lin Youxian frowned again, also losing some patience.

At this moment, Ai Youwei showed a sad expression and said, "It's a pity that I hurt my senior brother in the past."

"I wonder if my senior brother will forgive me."

"Um?"

Lin Youxian was astonished and asked, "How did you hurt him?"

Ai Youwei said sadly, "I thought he was the murderer of my parents, but it turns out he wasn't. My adoptive parents were evil people, scum. My senior brother avenged me..."

"..."

Youwei didn't really want to tell others about her senior brother.

But now, out of a desire to maintain the image of her senior brother, Ai Youwei started talking non-stop.

In Ai Youwei's opinion, the image of her senior brother in her heart was a million times better than the image described by Liu Ruyan.

However, thinking about how good her senior brother was to her, yet she acted like a willful little fairy, taking everything for granted and scolding him at the drop of a hat, Ai Youwei became more and more upset as she spoke, and finally broke down in tears.

However, although it was sad.

Ai Youwei's determination to gain her senior brother's forgiveness remains unchanged.

She didn't mention what happened in her past life.

That was their secret, and she wouldn't tell anyone except her master and senior sister who knew her inside and out.

After speaking for a long time, Ai Youwei looked at Lin Youxian and said, "If you want to make me sad, you have achieved your goal. But my senior brother is super nice. If you want to hurt my senior brother, I, Ai Youwei, will never let you go."

Lin Youxian was initially alarmed by the image of Gu Jian described by Ai Youwei.

Because it was completely different from what I had expected.

A demonic cultivator, turns out to be such a good person?

Upon hearing this, Lin Youxian snapped out of her daze, looked at Ai Youwei's frail appearance, and sneered, "You think you can take me on?"

"That's right, it's me!"

Ai Youwei snorted and said, "Don't underestimate me just because my cultivation is weak now. I possess the Profound Yin Sacred Body. I will definitely become stronger in the future, and even surpass you."

Lin Youxian found Ai Youwei utterly unreasonable.

Wait until she becomes strong.

We don't even know what level her cultivation has reached!

The person in front of you can never surpass you.

Lin Youxian was too lazy to waste words with Ai Youwei, and looked at Ye Qingcheng, coldly saying, "You are his master, you should know him better than they do. Tell me, what kind of person is Gu Jian?"

"You don't need to protect him. If he's lying, even if you're his master, I will not show any mercy."

Ye Qingcheng remained silent.

Upon hearing the words "Master," she was overcome with grief, her eyes reddened, and her beautiful eyes immediately welled up with tears.

Lin Youxian was stunned for a moment.

Why is Gu Jian's master so fragile?

He was clearly so powerful and violent.

But that's not right either.

When Ye Qingcheng was subdued by her, she did not show any weakness.

Ai Youwei felt incredibly ashamed that her master had to shed tears in front of the enemy.

Ye Qingcheng forcibly held back the tears that were about to fall, looked at Lin Youxian, and said, "Jian'er is the best disciple. There is no disciple in the world more filial than him."

"But I'd like to know, why are you asking these questions?"

Lin Youxian said coldly, "These questions are none of your business. Just tell me everything you want to know."

"Tell me everything truthfully, and I will let you leave. This is a deal."

Her tone was cold and condescending, yet Ye Qingcheng could tell that she genuinely meant no harm.

She seemed to genuinely just want to know what kind of person Gu Jian was.

Ye Qingcheng was puzzled.

I don't know why she did that.

Immediately, Ye Qingcheng couldn't help but think of Lin Shiyu.

"Could it be an investigation for Lin Shiyu? To help Lin Shiyu make the selection?"

Ye Qingcheng thought to herself that this possibility was not small.

After all, everyone in the city knew that Queen Lin Shiyu liked Gu Jian.

As the elder sister, Empress Lin Youxian would naturally help her younger sister vet someone and inquire about their character.

Ye Qingcheng had no idea that the empress in front of her had already had her innocence taken away by her disciple.

She came to ask these questions because she wanted to know what kind of person had taken away her innocence.

Realizing that the person in front of her truly meant no harm to Gu Jian, Ye Qingcheng continued speaking.

Ye Qingcheng began her story by recounting how she met Gu Jian and how she brought him back to the Misty Sect.

He was such a filial disciple, yet I always harbored a huge prejudice against him, misunderstanding him and punishing him time and time again.

For a long time, she was utterly disappointed in him.

Prejudice in people's hearts is like a mountain.

She couldn't overcome the mountain in her heart.

Even so, he continued to treat her well, like a close relative.

They even transferred their precious blessings and good fortune to her.
