"Although I don't have the ability to see ghosts, I am my father's daughter after all, so I can sense things that others can't, like Duan Shishi... Although she looks different from others, I know that she has most likely been controlled by an evil spirit, and she is doing it willingly. Miss, this matter is extraordinary. If it is not controlled, not only the General's Mansion, but also the Shengyuan Kingdom will be in trouble!"
The appearance of evil creatures in a country is definitely a terrifying thing in this time and space when Taoist priests and immortal cultivators are declining!
Duan Qingxi remained silent. She could sense that what Biyu said was true, but she was still a little unsure whether this person could be trusted...
Seeing Duan Qingxi's hesitation, Biyu continued, "Young Miss, there's no need to be afraid of me. If I'm guessing correctly, you're probably a cultivator, right?"
Duan Qingxi squinted his eyes and looked at Biyu, knowing that she was not relying on guesswork, but was very sure.
She said, "You've already seen it, or..."
Biyu shook her head and said, "I didn't see it long ago. Cultivators are of noble status. Although I have such blood, it is not very pure, so it cannot be seen. However, I can sense evil things like Duan Shishi. My ability will be stimulated by the instinct of survival. That's why I felt this way when I met the young lady again later."
Duan Qingxi felt that it was good to have a helper like Biyu. After all, she was alone now, while Helian Yun had the Nine-tailed Sky Fox, and Duan Shishi also had the help of that unknown evil creature.
“Can I trust you?” she asked.
Biyu was nervous, but she looked at her seriously and said, "Miss, I, Biyu, wouldn't dare say I'm a good person, but I can tell right from wrong. Moreover, even though our lineage has fallen, I've always kept my father's teachings in mind! I might do bad things for power and wealth, but I will never associate with evil! Furthermore, although I consider myself vicious, I've never harmed anyone's life!"
After a pause, she continued, "I know you don't believe me, Miss. In fact, I wouldn't believe it either if I were in your place. But Miss... since I've come to you, I will definitely not betray you!"
She was indeed a bad person in the past, and she never thought about being a good person later, but blood is something that cannot be changed. Her ancestors were all righteous people, and this blood flowed into her, so she would involuntarily make the same choice.
If Duan Shishi had not been controlled by the evil creatures, she might have helped Duan Shishi do bad things for the sake of power. However, once she encountered the evil creatures, she felt her blood boiling, as if she wanted to fight these evil creatures to the end!
She couldn't explain the feeling, but she just felt that her choice was absolutely right!
Perhaps, this is also the instinct for survival!
Duan Qingxi naturally believed in Biyu. She didn't have many abilities, but since she inherited Xiaodai's magic pill, she had a more thorough understanding of people's nature.
However, to be cautious, she did not dare to trust Biyu completely.
Duan Qingxi asked, "What do you want first?"
Biyu hesitated, as if considering her current situation and what she needed.
After a long while, she said, "I have nowhere to go after leaving the General's Mansion. If I were to come to the young lady, I'm afraid she wouldn't completely trust me. And since I want to cooperate with you, I still have to stay with Duan Shishi. I heard... the young lady has a good relationship with the Ninth Prince?"
