Restart
Fortunately, Jiang Yingyue survived, but she soon faced another problem: Bai Yu's plan had succeeded, and she was still seen as the villain by others. What could she do to change this?
"Moon".
Ji Yinglei appeared outside the door. She rushed forward anxiously and said, "I came as soon as I received the news. That's great."
Jiang Yingyue didn't know how to react. Everything seemed to be over, but it left behind a whole host of problems that needed to be solved: rumors, Ji Yinglei, rebuilding the Bright Moon Sect...
"I've almost finished repairing the sect these past few days, Yue'er... do you still want to be the sect leader?"
"It's too early to discuss these things now," Jiang Yingyue said, not wanting to answer Ji Yinglei. She already had her answer after defeating Feng Shi. "There are still many things that haven't been dealt with."
“I know that, Yue’er.” Ji Yinglei paused, then took out a bounty notice from his person. “The Heavenly Dao Alliance’s wanted notices have actually been targeting you all along. Qingzhu and I are doing better.”
Jiang Yingyue already had a guess in her mind. She looked up and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Moon, I know you yearn for freedom, so I can take your place as sect leader. I will do everything in my power to protect you." Ji Yinglei's tone was very calm, and Jiang Yingyue couldn't even be sure if she was testing him or revealing her true intentions.
Should we kill her right here and now?
Senior sister, what kind of person are you really? Which one is the real you? Although Jiang Yingyue still wanted to escape, her reason forced her to respond: "No."
She knew that, no matter what, this position could not be given to Ji Yinglei.
"If I continue to run away, no one will be able to redress the grievances of the Bright Moon Sect. Everything started because of my selfishness, and I cannot continue to be selfish." These words came out of her mouth, and at this moment, Jiang Yingyue finally had an answer in her heart. She had to do this job as the sect leader, and only she could do it. Rather than thinking about it here, she should take on this responsibility and then tell everyone the truth through her actions.
Ji Yinglei clearly wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Ye Qingzhu immediately sensed the subtle atmosphere and silently stepped forward. Jiang Yingyue also spoke at this moment: "Rebuilding the Mingyue Sect is indeed a top priority. We were once known to the world, and we cannot collapse because of Bai Yu's vague accusations."
"I believe in justice, so I will take over the newly reborn Bright Moon Sect as a sinner and join forces with Listening Rain Pavilion to reveal the truth to the world."
Jiang Yingyue stood in front of the Heavenly Dao Alliance gate and showed everyone the evidence that Jiang Shiyi had pressed his handprint on it: "Bai Yu has committed many evils, and his current fate is the result of his own actions."
"So this is the kind of person Alliance Leader Bai is."
"The handprint of the Listening Rain Pavilion Master, then what's on this is the truth?"
Ye Qingzhu and Ji Yinglei watched all this from the side. After the crowd dispersed, the news would spread in a few days. But what did Jiang Yingyue use to exchange for this handprint?
Several days passed, and things went as smoothly as Jiang Yingyue had expected. In fact, many people wanted to join the Bright Moon Sect, and everything seemed to be developing in a positive direction.
The calmer the surface, the more turbulent the undercurrents. Ye Qingzhu couldn't hold back any longer and asked Jiang Yingyue, "Ji Yinglei, what do you plan to do?"
This is the last question. When Jiang Yingyue mentioned Ji Yinglei, the wavering in her eyes was almost gone. Admittedly, she would still think of Ji Yinglei's kindness, but for Jiang Yingyue, especially for her who knew the truth, she could not ignore it.
Jiang Yingyue sighed, turning to look at the moonlight outside the window. The moonlight was just like this on the night she talked with Jiang Yuan—beautiful, quiet, yet dangerous. For some reason, her eyes welled up with tears, but she forced herself to keep her voice from trembling: "Kill."
This was the most merciful thing Jiang Yingyue could think of; doing anything more would only torture both of them. Ye Qingzhu silently placed her hand on her shoulder, knowing that making such a decision must have been difficult: "I know, let's rest first. We have a lot to do tomorrow."
Yes, there will be many things to do tomorrow, and who knows what will happen next?
As the sect leader, she still has a lot to learn and a lot to do. Fortunately, Jiang Yingyue has plenty of time in the days to come, so she can fulfill her duties properly, right?
If only she could open her eyes again and see the Bright Moon Sect.
