She bluntly stated, "Senior knows that the soul is the foundation of a cultivator. Even if the poison from the Time-Condensing Pill flares up, I will at most experience another period of hardship. But if Senior were to tamper with my soul, I would truly be doomed. Senior has no reason to help me, does he?"
Shang Beiyu: "..." He hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
You are the one destined by Heaven.
She is the person I love.
How could I possibly tamper with your soul!
But it's too early for him to say such things now. Even if he forcefully says them, she won't believe him, and it will only make things worse.
"Fine then. As long as you stay by my side and refine pills for me until your poison takes full effect and you leave this world, I will promise to release those two children a year from now," Shang Beiyu said gently, taking a step back.
"Thank you, Senior!" Ji Fengyao nodded respectfully, feeling somewhat at ease.
In this way, she ensured the safety of her two younger brothers; the remaining task was to find out where they were.
All that's left is for the Prince, Father, Brother, and Brother Xiao Chen to improve their strength.
Once two of them reach the Nascent Soul stage and are certain they can summon tribulation lightning, they can implement their plan to annihilate the enemy and rescue them!
Just in case, she left most of the spirit stones, spirit liquids, and other rare and precious materials with Shang Xiye.
They have enough resources to improve their cultivation, and I believe it won't be long before they do.
"What are the other two conditions?" Ji Fengyao asked again, seemingly very sincere in her desire to cooperate.
"The second condition is that I will lead you into a dream. If I am not mistaken, your memories have been erased or altered. I want you to remember what you should remember and return to where you belong." Seeing the little bandit's wary expression, Shang Beiyu quickly raised his hand and swore, "Don't worry, I will never take this opportunity to harm you, or may the heavens destroy me."
Ji Fengyao's expression was solemn:
How could he know that her memories had been erased by her master?
However, it was clearly her own request to her master to erase her memories that was made, and she even left herself a letter of admonition.
That must have been a very painful and unpleasant memory, and Ji Fengyao didn't want to recall it.
"Can I... refuse?" Ji Fengyao looked at the masked man in black in front of her very seriously.
Shang Beiyu had anticipated her refusal, and he didn't really intend to evoke any memories in her.
He just wanted to give her a false illusion, to create a memory about them that didn't exist.
So he insisted, "Okay, but what about the freedom and food of those two children..."
"I agree!" Ji Fengyao said through gritted teeth before he could finish, a hint of determination in her eyes.
She has reincarnated so many times and experienced life and death several times. She is no longer the simple little girl who was protected by her master, seemingly cheerful and optimistic, but in reality, she had never experienced any pain and had no ability to bear it.
She will have to face those things that were originally about her sooner or later.
"Come with me," Shang Beiyu said, reaching out to the little female bandit to take her away. He didn't want the illusion to be interrupted halfway through.
Ji Fengyao dodged aside, took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from her storage ring, and said, "Please wait a moment, senior. I'll leave a letter for my maid so she won't worry."
Leave a brief letter explaining your purpose, affix your personal seal, and prove the letter is genuine.
Ji Fengyao then stood up again and, across the table, said to Shang Beiyu in a polite but distant manner, "Senior, please lead the way."
