Ye Xuan was speechless!
He had to admit, this girl Xiao Jing’s reputation was worse than he had expected!
No, it wasn’t just her reputation, her deterrence was downright terrifying!
The entire city had cleared out!
How terrifying must that be?
Ye Xuan felt helpless!
Xiao Jing looked at Ye Xuan, “Brother, what do we do now?”
Ye Xuan said calmly, “What else can we do?”
With that, he glanced around, then said, “Let’s find a place to rest for a bit!”
Xiao Jing nodded obediently, “Alright!”
Ye Xuan found a small tavern in the city. The tavern was completely empty, with a few wine bowls still on the tables, clearly abandoned by patrons who had just fled!
Ye Xuan suddenly turned to Ye Qingqing, “Girl, my soul has become quite strong. I want to practice the folding technique!”
Ye Qingqing nodded, “You can!”
Ye Xuan gave a slight nod, “Let’s deal with this girl’s matter first!”
Saying that, he glanced around. The next moment, he reached out, and space-time shattered. Immediately, a man from outside the city was pulled over by him!
The man was utterly bewildered!
Ye Xuan was about to speak when the man saw Xiao Jing. The next moment, as if seeing a ghost, he collapsed to the ground, trembling, “Butcher…”
Xiao Jing frowned slightly, “Don’t talk nonsense, I’m a reasonable person!”
The man was terrified to the extreme, his whole body shaking!
Ye Xuan said sternly, “Speak properly!”
The man hurriedly crawled to Ye Xuan’s side, away from Xiao Jing.
Ye Xuan asked, “Tell me about her!”
He was still very curious about Xiao Jing’s past!
The man hesitated, then said, “She’s from the Qiankun Mercenary Group, known as the Butcher, loves killing. Once, she single-handedly massacred a city, a city with millions of people. She killed for three days and three nights with just one blade, and not only that, she neatly arranged those millions of heads together, then lay in the middle to sleep…”
Ye Xuan turned to look at Xiao Jing, who looked guilty, lowering her head, not daring to speak.
The man continued, “That’s not all!”
Ye Xuan was stunned!
That’s not all?
The man went on, “Every city she passes through gets massacred! She doesn’t even spare ant nests! The most recent city she slaughtered was Tianhuang City. If you want to know how… extreme she is, you can go to Tianhuang City, a few hundred miles from here. Right now, it’s…”
At this, he seemed to recall something, his face turning deathly pale!
Ye Xuan fell silent.
The man suddenly trembled, “Sir, can I leave now?”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, “You can go!”
The man hurriedly turned and fled!
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Let’s go see Tianhuang City!”
With that, he took Xiao Jing and disappeared from the spot!
Soon, the three arrived at Tianhuang City. Before even getting close, Ye Xuan caught a pungent smell of blood!
His expression darkened!
As they entered the city gates, Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed. The entire city was blood-red, from the walls to the ground, drenched in blood, as if the city had been soaked in it!
Inside the city, the scene was truly horrific!
At this moment, the small pagoda suddenly said, “This girl is a ruthless one!”
Ye Qingqing, however, remained calm as water!
Slaughtering a city was a trivial matter to her!
Ye Xuan didn’t enter the city. He let out a soft sigh!
He had underestimated this girl’s bloodthirstiness!
This wasn’t just a killing maniac, this was a butcher!
Xiao Jing stole a glance at Ye Xuan, then softly said, “I…”
Ye Xuan sighed quietly.
If this girl regained her memories, a few words from him wouldn’t change her nature!
At this moment, he suddenly felt a bit of regret!
But letting her go just like that didn’t sit right with him either. If he kept her by his side, he could at least restrain her. If she left and regained her memories, who knows how many more would suffer!
At this point, Ye Qingqing suddenly said, “Brother, let her stay at the academy!”
Ye Xuan looked at Ye Qingqing, who remained calm, “Brother, to be honest, you don’t have many good people around you! Take me, for instance, I’m not a good person. I’ve killed far more than this girl! Not just me, that woman isn’t a good person either. For you, let alone slaughtering a city, she wouldn’t blink at wiping out an entire universe! And your father, the people he’s killed could probably fill a star domain! So, if you really want to do some good, take this girl in, change her, or at least restrain her!”
Xiao Jing quickly nodded, “Yes, yes! I’m willing to be changed, willing to be restrained!”
She wasn’t particularly afraid of Ye Xuan, but she was terrified of Ye Qingqing!
Her instincts told her this woman could kill her!
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then smiled, “You’re right!”
With that, he looked at Xiao Jing, “Then you’ll follow me from now on, cultivate yourself at the Guanxuan Academy, and don’t cause senseless slaughter! Can you do that?”
Xiao Jing nodded eagerly, “Yes, yes!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “This is your promise. If you regain your memories and go back on it, don’t blame me!”
Xiao Jing nodded, “Alright, alright!”
Ye Xuan shook his head. This girl was being a bit perfunctory!
But no matter, if there were issues later, he’d let Qingqiu or Qingqing deal with her!
If that didn’t work, he’d let Suqun Qing’er talk to her!
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, then said, “Let’s go!”
With that, he turned and left!
Seeing this, Xiao Jing breathed a sigh of relief!
She’d managed to get through this!
Ye Xuan arrived in a starry sky, deciding to put Xiao Jing’s matter aside for now and focus on cultivating!
He had to break through with this folding technique!
In the starry sky, Ye Xuan sat cross-legged, slowly clenching his right hand. Soon, the surrounding space-time was compressed into a line!
He found that this time, folding was much easier!
With his soul strengthened, the folding technique had become relatively simple!
Noticing this, Ye Xuan laughed!
Ye Xuan quietly cultivated, while Ye Qingqing guarded him.
Within a radius of millions of miles, not even a mosquito could get through!
Xiao Jing, however, was a bit miserable!
She didn’t want to be with Ye Qingqing!
She was a little afraid of her!
Ye Qingqing suddenly said, “Let’s go!”
Without waiting for Xiao Jing’s reply, she took her straight to Luanzang City.
The city was still completely empty!
Clearly, everyone feared this butcher would slaughter the city!
Xiao Jing hesitated, then said, “Sister Qing, shouldn’t we stay by Brother’s side?”
Ye Qingqing said calmly, “Don’t worry, you’d die before he does!”
Xiao Jing fell silent!
This Sister Qing’s words were so harsh!
Ye Qingqing looked at Xiao Jing, “Little girl, you haven’t regained your memories, right?”
Xiao Jing nodded, “Yes!”
Ye Qingqing stared at her, saying nothing.
Xiao Jing broke out in a cold sweat, “I really haven’t regained my memories, but my instincts keep telling me what to do!”
She hesitated, then gave a bitter smile, “Sister Qing, I’ll definitely be a good person from now on!”
Ye Qingqing frowned slightly, “Why be a good person?”
Xiao Jing was stunned.
Ye Qingqing said calmly, “Be whoever you want to be!”
Xiao Jing said, “But Brother…”
Ye Qingqing said calmly, “My brother, strictly speaking, is a good person. If others don’t provoke him, he generally won’t kill. But ruling a universe, how can you only have kindness? You need ruthless measures too! You can do things for him that he can’t easily do, understand?”
Xiao Jing blinked, “He’ll be unhappy!”
Ye Qingqing said, “Don’t let him know, then. Of course, don’t go slaughtering cities anymore! That kind of thing, besides satisfying some twisted thrill, is meaningless! Killing the weak isn’t a skill. If you’re going to kill, kill those stronger than you or at least on your level, got it?”
Xiao Jing nodded slightly, “Got it!”
Ye Qingqing added, “Also, I advise you not to think about leaving my brother. If you do, I’ll kill you!”
With that, she downed a cup of wine from the table, “Don’t ask why I’d kill you. I just would, no reason needed, understand?”
Xiao Jing nodded, “I understand!”
Ye Qingqing nodded, “Remember, I didn’t say anything to you just now. If you do something that upsets my brother later and say I told you to do it, I won’t admit it, and I’ll beat you so badly your own mother wouldn’t recognise you!”
Xiao Jing fell silent.
This wasn’t something a human would do!
Ye Qingqing frowned slightly, “Did you hear me?”
Xiao Jing quickly nodded, “I heard! Don’t worry, if it comes out later, I’ll say it was my own idea, nothing to do with Sister Qing!”
Ye Qingqing nodded, “Remember what you said!”
Xiao Jing fell silent.
She suddenly felt a bit wronged!
She’d never been bullied like this before!
Ye Qingqing looked up at the starry sky, then said, “Don’t feel wronged. Following my brother, you have a bright future! You can’t see it now, but you will later!”
Xiao Jing suddenly said, “Brother is a man of destiny!”
Ye Qingqing said calmly, “It’s not that simple!”
Xiao Jing frowned, “Not that simple?”
Ye Qingqing sneered, “You’re too weak now. Telling you more wouldn’t make sense to you!”
Xiao Jing: “…”
Ye Qingqing said, “I’ll follow him for a while, then I have to go elsewhere! When that happens, you’ll be in charge of looking after my brother!”
Xiao Jing nodded, “Alright, alright!”
Ye Qingqing said nothing more.
Xiao Jing looked at Ye Qingqing, “You’re leaving?”
Ye Qingqing nodded, “We’ve agreed, each of us can only follow him for a while…”
Xiao Jing hesitated, then asked, “Are the others as strong as you?”
Ye Qingqing glanced at Xiao Jing, “Don’t worry, I’m the strongest! If you meet the others, like the one he calls Qing’er, don’t give them any face. Beat them to a pulp for me, got it?”
Xiao Jing nodded, “Got it! I’ll make sure to beat them up for you!”
