“Yes, if we act with kindness and sow good seeds, even if we don’t achieve a positive outcome in the future, we will still have a good result,” Ye Xingchen said. “Isn’t that better than having another Liu Sanqing in this world?”
Liu Qingmei nodded gently. She had to admire Ye Xingchen for considering things more deeply than she had.
"Do you have any ideas?" Ye Xingchen glanced at Liu Qingmei.
"Me? What thoughts could I possibly have?" Liu Qingmei shook her head.
“The Liu family no longer exists. Huang Wenxing is another immortal after Liu Sanqing. Although his surname is Huang, he will serve you as your master if you are willing.” Ye Xingchen said leisurely, “Moreover, not only him, but the entire Huang family will be at your service.”
Liu Qingmei was stunned.
Ye Xingchen's suggestion appealed to her.
Liu Jia has fallen from grace. Some things will be done by someone else even if she doesn't do them. So she might as well take control of everything herself.
At least if she were in control of Huang Wenxing, she could help him develop in a positive direction.
"You should think this through. You should have learned a lesson from what happened to Liu Sanqing," Ye Xingchen said. "So-called immortals are nothing more than demons and spirits."
"They have endless desires, just like humans, and sometimes even stronger desires than humans. If they are not restrained, the consequences in the future will be terrible."
"Before, the entire city of Jiyang was in chaos because of Liu Sanqing. If Huang Wenxing is used by others, no one can guarantee that he will become the second Liu Sanqing. Do you really want Jiyang to remain the same as before?"
"I don't want that." Liu Qingmei lowered her head gently.
A moment later she raised her head, a glint of shrewdness in her eyes.
Do you know how my mother died?
"I don't know, but I think there must be a reason," Ye Xingchen said.
“Yes, there was a reason for it.” Liu Qingmei nodded: “She actually wanted to change everything in Jiyang City and even the three provinces, but she was alone and powerless, and in the end she was persecuted to death by the Liu family.”
"She was killed by the Liu family?" Ye Xingchen looked at Liu Qingmei with some surprise.
"Yes." Liu Qingmei nodded: "So no matter what happens to the Liu family this time, I will not sympathize with them or pity them."
"Then you should think about it more carefully, after all, this is your mother's long-cherished wish." Ye Xingchen said, "Huang Wenxing is different from Liu Sanqing. He is kind by nature, so you should think about it."
"Okay." Liu Qingmei nodded, and then she left.
After she left, she walked in the courtyard, her expression becoming complicated.
She was torn between Ye Xingchen's proposal and, undeniably, she was somewhat tempted, but that was all.
She knew the karmic consequences of these offerings to the immortals. She had finally escaped the Liu family and become a free and ordinary person, and she really didn't want all her previous efforts to be in vain.
"Miss Liu." Under the moonlight, a man clasped his hands and bowed slightly to Liu Qingmei. He was none other than Huang Wenxing.
"It's you?" Liu Qingmei was slightly taken aback, then tried to regain her composure and nodded gently to Huang Wenxing: "Hello."
"There are some things I'd like to discuss with Miss Liu," Huang Wenxing said, looking directly at her. "I wonder if it's convenient for you, Miss Liu?"
“That’s convenient. I was just about to have a chat with you.” Liu Qingmei pointed to the pavilion in front of her. “Let’s sit down and talk.”
Huang Wenxing bowed respectfully, then followed Liu Qingmei to the pavilion.
He stretched out his sleeve and gently brushed the dust off the stone bench in the pavilion, then gestured for him to enter.
Huang Wenxing was very gentlemanly, and his every move was polite.
Because he was just beginning to take human form, he was diligently learning human actions and trying his best not to make any mistakes.
That's exactly what Ye Xingchen valued in him.
This is a person who doesn't allow himself to make mistakes. Although such a person may have ambition, he is also very pragmatic.
“Mr. Huang,” Liu Qingmei said, “you’ve been in the human world for a few days now, and I’ve noticed you’ve been studying a lot. I wonder what your thoughts are on the human world?”
"First of all, it's quite interesting. Humans truly deserve to be called the most intelligent of all beings, inventing so many strange and wonderful things," Huang Wenxing exclaimed. "Moreover, humans can sleep in the dark without worrying about predators, which is what I yearn for the most."
“The more it’s like this, the more temptations there are.” Liu Qingmei sighed softly. “So Mr. Huang, you need to adapt to some things as soon as possible, and don’t get caught up in them.”
“I understand what Miss Liu means.” Huang Wenxing smiled slightly and said, “Please rest assured, Miss Liu, I can control my emotions.”
"I also know that there are too many temptations in this world, especially for a demon spirit like me who has just condensed into human form. If I'm not careful, I will continue to sink into depravity."
“Once I succumb to it, I will lose my true self, and all the hard-earned Dao achievements I have attained will vanish with my descent into depravity.”
"So no matter how many temptations there are in this world, I must guard my original intention and never allow myself to get too caught up in them."
"Is that really what you think?" Liu Limei looked at Huang Wenxing with some surprise. She felt that Huang Wenxing was really clear-headed.
He was able to see through the essence of things, and he also had very strong self-control.
Other spirits, once they enter this colorful world, will become hopelessly addicted and unable to extricate themselves.
But Huang Wenxing was different. He could control his emotions very well. He knew that only in this way could he preserve the hard-won fruits of his cultivation.
“Yes, Miss Liu.” Huang Wenxing nodded slightly. “The reason I’m here today is that I need your help.”
"Go ahead and speak." Liu Qingmei's heart skipped a beat. What was Huang Wenxing doing? Did he already know?
"I, Huang Wenxing, have just transformed into human form, and this is only the result of Mr. Ye's guidance. I have no roots or foundation in this world." Huang Wenxing clasped his hands and bowed deeply to Liu Qingmei.
"Therefore, I am willing to serve Miss Liu and protect her safety. I also hope that Miss Liu can give me a title so that I can have a place in this world."
"Why...why would you think that?" Liu Qingmei was taken aback. Although she had been prepared, Huang Wenxing's suggestion still surprised her greatly.
“I have no place in this world,” Huang Wenxing sighed. “And even if I find the Huang family and become the deity they worship, they will still make endless demands on me.”
