Suddenly, a silver sword appeared in his hand, and he said to Yu Xi, "What else do you have to say?"
It has been a year and a half since she was ordered to capture Yu Xi. Many times, she showed mercy because they had worked together before.
But today, Yu Xi actually dared to set her sights on Ji Xingzhi, and she would never be soft-hearted again.
Yu Xi shook her head and said inexplicably to Liu Ning, "Thank you."
Afterwards, he mobilized all his spiritual power, severed his own heart meridian and died.
Yu Xi's eyes were always on Ji Xingzhi. The moment he fell, a strange smile appeared on his face, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, which made people feel a chill on their backs.
Liu Ning frowned, took out a small jade bottle, cast a spell on it, opened the bottle cap, and then pointed the mouth of the jade bottle towards Yuxi.
I saw something white, like mist, being slowly sucked into the bottle, and then Liu Ning closed the bottle and put it away.
After watching Liu Ning's series of actions, Ji Xingzhi also had a general idea that Yu Xi was dead and his soul was placed in the jade bottle.
Ji Xingzhi thought that what Liu Ning meant by arresting was just bringing the person back to the temple, but she never thought that it was actually bringing the person's soul back to the temple.
Ji Xingzhi didn't say goodbye to anyone, but just wrote a note with a big stroke of his pen.
It read: "I'm going on a long journey, don't worry. - Ji Xingzhi."
Ji Xingzhi just left like that, taking nothing with him except the clothes he was wearing.
The flow was very fast, and they soon arrived at the dense forest of Liuyun with Ji Xingzhi in their arms.
Ji Xingzhi was silent along the way, and Liu Ning was also a man who could not speak, so the atmosphere was very depressing.
It was the muddy water that broke the silence.
"Does the Empress have time to listen to my story?" Liu Ning asked.
Ji Xingzhi paused, knowing that Liu Ning was trying to divert her attention. Her heart warmed, and she nodded slightly, saying, "I'm no longer the Empress Tianzhao. Just call me Xingzhi."
Liu Ning nodded and said, "Okay."
Liu Ning paused and remained silent for a long time, as if he was organizing his words. After a long time, he slowly spoke.
"My father is Liu, the former Imperial Censor of the Xiao Dynasty, and my mother is a prostitute. After a night of love, my mother became pregnant with me. But how could a decent Imperial Censor allow a prostitute who had been slept with thousands of men and had sex with tens of thousands of men to enter the Imperial Censorate?"
Liu Ning led the way and said, "My mother was chased away by the guards at the gate before she even saw the censor."
“My mother thought that if she gave birth to me, she might be able to enter the Imperial Censorate.
My mother truly loved the Censor. She didn't care about the rumors and stubbornly gave birth to me. She held me in her arms and knelt in front of the Censor's mansion.
The censor had no choice but to let my mother into the mansion, but the censor had never entered my mother's yard. In my memory, no matter it was windy, rainy, frosty, or snowy, my mother always stood at the gate of the yard waiting. As she waited, she became thinner, fell seriously ill, and passed away.
The day my mother died, I finally saw my father. It was the first time I saw my father and also the last time.
He was as cold and heartless as I had imagined.
He just glanced at my mother and me, then turned and left.
I don't hate him, I just blame myself for giving my love to the wrong person."
Having said this, Liu Ning fell silent again: "After my mother died, I was always bullied. One day, I tried my best to leave the Censorate.
I kept running and running, afraid of being caught. I ran until I was exhausted and collapsed to the ground. That's when the Palace Master appeared."
