"I... I'll think about it carefully," Liu Qingmei said.
"Oh, right, two girls came from Yanjing looking for Ye Xingchen. They're at his place now." Old Chang's words shocked Liu Qingmei: "One girl is only eighteen or nineteen years old, and the other is a foreign girl. They're both very beautiful, and they seem to be very capable."
"He...he brought another woman with him?" Liu Qingmei exclaimed angrily, "How could he do this?"
"That's normal. Remember Qingmei, excellent men are never short of excellent women. Keep up the good work," the old man laughed.
The two women that Elder Chang mentioned were naturally Jiu Li and Weina.
"Did you break all those people's arms and legs?" Hearing Jiu Li's boastful account, he felt speechless.
"Yes, Ye Xingchen, let me tell you, those people are too tough. My hands are hurting." Jiu Li raised her hands 'delicately', presenting herself as a weak and helpless tomboy.
"Alright, alright. Didn't I tell you to beat them until they couldn't fight back?" Ye Xingchen said, somewhat amused and exasperated.
Jiu Li is a person with extremely pure bloodline. He doesn't want Jiu Li to have any lives on her hands, nor does he want her to hurt anyone, otherwise she might get too much karma involved.
But sometimes he couldn't get away by himself and had to use Jiu Li. Tonight he repeatedly instructed that as long as Jiu Li stopped those people, that was enough. He told Jiu Li not to kill anyone, and preferably not to hurt anyone. He just had to subdue them.
“That’s what you said. You even said that we just need to beat them into submission. I asked what if they don’t submit, and you told me to break their arms and legs so they can’t move.” Jiu Li said seriously.
"..." Ye Xingchen felt somewhat speechless. Fine, it's better to break it off than to kill someone.
Weina, standing to the side, curled her lip. She really couldn't agree with Jiu Li's idea. Ye Xingchen's words were like a royal decree to Jiu Li, and there seemed to be a restless spirit in Jiu Li's bones, a restlessness that made her want to kill others at any time.
"Extend your hand." Ye Xingchen extended his hand to take her pulse.
"Okay." Jiu Li extended her wrist and obediently let Ye Xingchen place his hand on her wrist.
Ye Xingchen took a deep breath and sent out his divine sense. A faint blue light appeared in his pupils, and under his gaze, Jiu Li's physical condition was fully presented before his eyes.
Her body had undergone some changes compared to before, but Ye Xingchen couldn't quite put his finger on what those changes were.
Ye Xingchen clearly understood that after meeting Weina, the attraction between the two bodies with extremely pure bloodlines allowed Jiu Li's past traumas to gradually heal.
Perhaps after some time, Jiu Li will regain her memories, but Ye Xingchen couldn't say exactly when.
In short, Vena and Jiu Li are the same kind of people. They are hiding a great secret. To uncover these secrets, we must find the mysterious organizer, Augustus.
Their pure bloodlines are capable of bearing divine magic, and besides the two of them, there are at least a dozen other inheritors of the pure bloodlines. These people are now scattered all over the world, and it is unknown who they are serving.
Ye Xingchen felt that after understanding his own situation, he would embark on a journey to find these people with extremely pure bloodlines and uncover the secrets hidden behind them.
"Did you remember anything?" Ye Xingchen asked after withdrawing his divine sense.
“No.” Jiu Li shook her head, a look of confusion on her face. “I only remember an island, very desolate, very dark… and then…”
"Do you remember Vena?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“I don’t remember her…” Jiu Li shook her head: “She just feels very familiar, as if we’ve known each other before.”
“Alright.” Ye Xingchen nodded: “Like Vena, you have memory gaps. It must have been done by someone from that organization. Like Shi Nu, you have gaps in your memories before your teens.”
“They must have some secrets they’re afraid you’ll leak,” Ye Xingchen said.
“Ye,” Weina spoke up, “I hope that one day, Jiu Li and I will be able to understand our origins, know who we are, and know where our family is.”
Her eyes were filled with urgency. For years, she had not known who she was, where she came from, or who her family was. This kind of loneliness was something no one else could truly understand.
Although she had been in an assassin organization, she never gave up searching for the truth, but to no avail.
She saw hope in Ye Xingchen; she believed that this man in front of her must have a way to help her.
"Don't worry, I'll do my best to help you." Ye Xingchen nodded. "Get some rest. We're going to Jiyang tomorrow."
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Jiu Li ran to open it and saw Liu Qingmei standing in the doorway.
"I'm looking for Ye Xingchen." Staring intently at Jiu Li, Liu Qingmei suddenly felt a surge of jealousy.
The girl in front of him was almost too beautiful, and her innocent, wide eyes and adorable gaze were the kind of thing that could easily evoke a man's protective instincts.
And she's still very young, at most eighteen or nineteen years old. This beast, is he really that promiscuous?
"Ye Xingchen, it's looking for you," Jiu Li called out, turning her head.
"Why are you here? Come in quickly." Ye Xingchen looked at Liu Qingmei in surprise.
Liu Qingmei walked in, and her eyes were immediately drawn to a blonde, blue-eyed girl.
The girl was also very young, and the sight of Westerners' ample bosoms made her shrink back in self-consciousness.
To be fair, hers isn't small, but it still falls a little short compared to foreigners.
Liu Qingmei suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. It seemed that her grandfather was right. This scoundrel was indeed surrounded by many girls. If she didn't take the initiative, she might really end up with nothing.
"I'd like to talk to you about some things. We're going to Jiyang tomorrow." Liu Qingmei tried to calm herself down. "But there are still some remnants of the Yu family that haven't been eliminated."
"You want me to stay and finish them off?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“You have more important business in Jiyang, so if it’s convenient, have your people handle it.” Liu Qingmei looked at Jiu Li.
No matter what, beautiful women are always a source of instability. Let her stay here first, and I'll spend a few days alone with Ye Xingchen.
“This…okay, Vena. You and Jiuli stay here for a few days to assist Elder Chang. After this matter is resolved, come find me in Jiyang.” Ye Xingchen turned to the two of them and said.
