It's her.

Without a breeze, Hua Yue's expression changed drastically the moment she saw the barefoot girl.

But the girl's gaze was fixed only on Xue Ye.

That good-for-nothing Yue Yunxue can't even handle this little thing!

Is he the person my grandfather was talking about?

"Who is she?" Liu Yingying asked Wufeng.

At this moment, all those who were chasing them had been dealt with.

"She is the Holy Maiden of the Yiyue Clan, Yue Wushuang!" Wufeng was on high alert at this moment.

This was the first time Liu Yingying had ever seen him so flustered.

Saintess...

Liu Yingying remembered Xue Ye saying that his mother had once been a saint.

"Why does she look so familiar?" Liu Yingying muttered to herself.

Huayue happened to overhear this.

Hua Yue: "The Xue next to you before, that's her older sister. Don't the two sisters look alike?"

Liu Yingying silently murmured "Oh, oh, Yue Yunxue's younger sister, no wonder..."

So, will she, like Yue Yunxue, try to kill Xue Ye?

If she was going to kill Xue Ye anyway, then why did she kill those assassins earlier?

Liu Yingying felt that the women of the Yiyue tribe had rather circuitous thought processes…

At this moment, Yue Wushuang finally spoke.

She looked at Xue Ye with an indifferent expression.

"You are the son of the former saintess?" The voice was ethereal and melodious, extremely pleasant to hear.

Xue Ye, with his eyes covered by a black cloth, slightly raised his face towards the direction from which the voice came. He had also heard Wu Feng Hua Yue's words and knew the identity of the woman who spoke.

"Are you here to kill me too?"

His question was very direct.

Yue Wushuang smiled faintly and shook her head. "No, I'm here to take you home!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yingying and the others were all surprised.

They are clearly sisters, one wants to kill, and the other wants to take Xue Ye away. What are they doing?

Yue Wushuang said, "You don't need to worry. I won't harm you. There has been some trouble in the Yiyue Clan. You are the only bloodline left in this world by the former clan leader. You should come back with me to take charge of the situation!"

Xue Ye scoffed, "Isn't your clan leader Jiang Guli now? With him in charge, why do I need to go back?"

Yue Wushuang slightly raised her chin, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes.

"This is a long story. Young Master Xue, please come back with me first, and I will explain it to you slowly later."

She paused, then added meaningfully, "By the way, Young Master Xue, you must miss the former Holy Maiden after being separated for so long, right?"

Upon hearing this, both Liu Yingying and Xue Ye suddenly felt a bad premonition.

Jiang Suyu was left alone in Taoyuan Village. If the Yiyue tribe came after her, she would have no way to protect herself!

"What exactly do you want?" Xue Ye's tone was tinged with murderous intent.

Yue Wushuang smiled emotionlessly, "Xue Ye, the former Holy Maiden is currently with the Yiyue Clan..."

Liu Yingying's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, they still managed to capture Jiang Suyu!

Meanwhile, atop the mountain, Huo Huaizhi, dressed in a long black robe that billowed in the cold wind, wore a serious expression on his handsome face.

At this moment, he could see everything that was happening at the foot of the mountain.

Grey Falcon and the others stood beside him and asked, "These remnants of the Yiyue tribe are truly arrogant, daring to infiltrate our Great Xia territory and do such things. Should we send someone to deal with them?"

"No need!" Huo Huaizhi waved his hand. "Their target should be Xue Ye, not the Lady of Ning'an County!"

"Does Master mean... just let them take Xue Ye away like this?"

Huo Huaizhi said, "Xue Ye is originally a member of the Yiyue tribe. Keeping him in Daxia will only cause trouble. It would be better to let him leave!"

"Really?" Grey Falcon looked at him with some skepticism.

Why did he feel that his master's desire for Xue Ye to leave wasn't entirely for the sake of the peace and tranquility of the Great Xia?

Thick, dark clouds had gathered in the sky, and a torrential downpour was imminent.

After a long silence, Xue Ye finally spoke, his tone indifferent and aloof: "Now that I am blind, I am no different from a cripple. I pose no threat to Jiang Guli, nor can I provide any value to anyone else. Why do you still insist on taking me back?"

Yue Wushuang, however, seemed unconcerned.

"You've been poisoned by a secret Gu poison made by the Yiyue tribe. Once the poison is neutralized, you'll be able to see again, so temporary blindness is nothing to worry about!"

If Xue Ye could still see at this moment, he would have killed Yue Wushuang with a single blow.

Yue Wushuang seemed to have completely lost patience.

"Xue Ye, my time is limited. Since I have come here in person, I must take you back to the clan!"

Even if you don't think about yourself, shouldn't you think about your mother and your aunt?

Suddenly, another group of people appeared silently, eyeing Liu Yingying with predatory intent.

Shameless! Absolutely shameless!

He actually used himself to threaten Xiaoye!

Liu Yingying cursed inwardly.

However, the matter is already settled, and Xue Ye will likely have no choice but to leave today.

Just as Liu Yingying looked at Xue Ye, she saw him suddenly clutch his chest and vomit a mouthful of black blood with a pained expression.

"Young Master!" Wu Feng exclaimed in surprise, not understanding what was going on either.

"Xiao Ye, what's wrong?" Liu Yingying rushed over and checked his pulse.

The pulse was extremely disordered, indicating a tendency for the body's blood and qi to flow in reverse.

Liu Yingying searched her space but couldn't find any herbs that could cure him, which made her feel frustrated.

"I'm fine, don't worry!" Xue Ye raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, trying his best not to show too much pain.

This scene was observed by Yue Wushuang from her high vantage point, her beautiful face displaying only mockery and amusement.

"I seem to have forgotten to tell you that besides blindness, the poison you've been poisoned has other aftereffects."

"Without the antidote from my Yiyue tribe's secret medicine, your body will be covered in festering sores... You will feel the approach of death with crystal clarity..."

After listening to Yue Wushuang's words, Liu Yingying also made a decision in her heart. She gently held Xue Ye's hand and said seriously;

"Xiaoye, go with her. Since they went to such great lengths to find you, they probably won't let you die so easily."

"But you..." Xue Ye wanted to say that he was worried about leaving Liu Yingying alone.

Liu Yingying interrupted him, "Don't worry about me. They're not targeting me. After you leave, they won't bother me anymore."

As she spoke, she gently hugged Xue Ye.

In an era where men and women were strictly separated, her action stunned many people present.

Liu Yingying whispered in Xue Ye's ear, "I will take good care of myself, and so will you. I believe we will meet again someday!"

Xue Ye's expression suddenly hardened, but he could only nod in the end. Finally, he turned to the direction where Yue Wushuang was and said in a deep voice.

"I can leave with you now, but you must promise me you will never hurt her!"

Yue Wushuang scoffed lightly; "My target is you, who would care about a middle-aged woman!"

Liu Yingying: Thank you!
