Night fell quietly, and the last ray of light in the sky disappeared completely. It was clearly still summer, but when a rare strong wind blew, it felt a bit bitingly cold.
The flame on the candlestick suddenly went out and the temperature in the room gradually dropped.
The weak girl lying on the bed barely opened her eyes. As a snake with good night vision, she could see her surroundings clearly without the help of light. However, she had just lost too much blood to save her elder sister, and now she was weak all over and her vision was blurred from time to time.
Bang!
The girl suddenly felt a sharp pain in her body, her body went limp, and she fell off the bed, her forehead hitting the edge of a chair heavily.
A faint smell of blood lingered in the air...
"Puchi." A mocking laugh sounded outside the door.
Hearing the voice, Ye Wanyin instinctively felt familiar. She turned her gaze towards the door with difficulty and saw a graceful figure standing there intact: "Sister, sister?! What's wrong with you... Didn't mother say that you were seriously injured and unconscious and in critical condition..."
"If I don't say this, how can you willingly donate your real blood, my dear sister." Ye Qingxuan's mouth curled up slightly, and her tone was not as kind and gentle as usual.
She lifted her skirt with a hint of disgust and walked into the room, glancing at Ye Wanyin, who was lying on the ground like a useless dog, with an undisguised look of sarcasm.
Ye Wanyin's pupils shrank suddenly: "What do you mean..."
"Haven't you reacted yet? You're just a motherless bastard. The fact that my Ye family is willing to take you in is already the greatest blessing of your life. How can you possess the bloodline of the Golden-Scaled Feathered Serpent?!"
Ye Wanyin's voice trembled: "Golden-scaled feathered snake?"
She had never heard of it. Wasn't she Baiwei? She had the worst talent in the snake clan and was equivalent to waste!
Ye Qingxuan smiled coldly, narrowing her eyes slightly. She reached out and gently stroked the face that aroused envy and hatred before her. "You know, I used to think you were just a joke that couldn't be put on the stage. You were born from a white egg, a white-tailed snake. If it weren't for your last name, Ye, you'd be a lowly, low-class waste. Even if you sucked all the spiritual energy out of you, you'd be nothing but a pile of mud that can't be helped!"
Suddenly, her tone suddenly changed drastically, and she gripped Ye Wanyin's neck tightly, her eyes fierce: "But guess what I discovered? I discovered that as you practice longer, the color of your tail is no longer pure white! This has never happened to the snake clan in millions of years, but it happened to you!"
"Ahem! You...you were spying on...me!" Ye Wanyin struggled to squeeze out a few words from between her lips.
Ye Qingxuan curled her red lips and said with a sarcastic smile: "This was my mother's idea!"
"She once obtained a secret book from outer space. When she saw the flash of gold on your white egg before it hatched, she began to suspect that the bloodline of the Golden-Scaled Feathered Serpent will eventually transform through practice and gain a golden tail, becoming a saint or a god!... This is a realm that even the purple snakes who hold the highest status in the snake clan today and possess extraordinary talents cannot reach!"
Her tone was almost crazy, her eyes were obsessed and full of twisted jealousy and hatred, staring at the embarrassed Ye Wanyin on the ground as if she were looking at a corpse: "I will never allow anyone to be stronger than me, especially you, Ye Wanyin!"
"So it doesn't matter if you're not a white-tailed snake. As long as I seal your bloodline, you'll become one! You can only be a stepping stone on my road to becoming stronger."
"I want the true blood of the Golden Scale Feathered Serpent. I also want the Golden Scaled Eyes that have existed with the Golden Scale Feathered Serpent's blood for half a lifetime!"
A flash of silver light appeared.
As the dagger flipped, blood splattered onto the wall!
“Ahhhhhh——!!” The shrill screams were filled with heart-wrenching despair. The originally bright and clear eyes now only had two hideous holes that continued to bleed out.
The sharp voice had a certain strong penetrating power.
Ye Qingxuan was caught off guard, and her ears stung. Her face changed drastically, and she quickly shook her off and stepped back several steps, cursing, "Damn it, my ears..."
"So for the past sixteen years, you have been acting all the time, without any sincerity! I am just the prey chosen by you, Ye Qingxuan. All the relatives and promises are fake!" Ye Wanyin seemed to feel no pain. The relatives she thought she could entrust her life to, now became the sharp blade that wanted her life and stabbed her without hesitation.
Not once did she doubt them.
When she was at her lowest point and was being mocked with harsh words, it was Ye Qingxuan who stood up for her and gently told her that no one would bully her anymore.
When she was facing being expelled from the family because of something unexpected that happened overnight, it was the mistress of the Ye family, Ye Qingxuan's biological mother, who knelt down and pleaded for her!
At that moment, Ye Wanyin thought she was the luckiest person in the world.
She believed Ye Qingxuan's words that only by continuously bringing benefits to the family could she be valued, and the family would help her find her mother's whereabouts. For this promise and to repay the favor, she fought desperately for whatever the Ye family wanted. She couldn't remember how many times she escaped from danger with her insignificant strength.
But what did you get in the end?
Ye Qingxuan admired her dying struggle, her eyebrows raised frivolously: "Don't say that, you are the only stupid and ignorant person in the Ye family. Killing you to fulfill my wish was the suggestion made by the elders of the Ye family."
Ye Wanyin's whole body stiffened, and she raised her head suddenly. Even though she couldn't see now, she could still judge Ye Qingxuan's location by the sound.
“Haha…hahahahahahaha!”
Sixteen years.
She foolishly believed it for sixteen years.
"Changming will not let you go!"
Ye Wanyin smiled sadly, gritted her teeth and spoke in a trembling voice.
There were subtle footsteps approaching outside the house, and Ye Qingxuan suddenly revealed a meaningful smile.
"Why isn't it over yet? Xuan'er, you are too kind. Why are you wasting so much time talking to a dead person like her?"
The air froze instantly!
