Chapter 23 Duty
Chapter 23 Duty
He Sanxiang's initiative to explain, and Ye Yin's arrogance, made Ning Xiuyang chuckle.
As for how Ye Yin should deal with Ye Ya, that's none of his business.
Although the Ye family is large, he has no intention of staying here for long. Once he is strong enough, he will go out and see a bigger world sooner or later.
just.
He vaguely sensed that as the 'Li Huailin's Inner Demon' was refined and its energy was fed back to him, the murderous aura he felt before his death seemed to have also affected him.
It seems that... the Myriad Manifestations Mirror is not omnipotent. It can refine inner demons, but it cannot completely remove the remaining obsessions within them.
This resentment must be resolved, otherwise it will become an obstacle on the path of cultivation sooner or later!
Ning Xiuyang's eyes flickered.
And just then...
Footsteps sounded outside the door. He held his breath and listened intently, and he could tell that the footsteps belonged to Ye Yin, the owner of this courtyard.
Here comes the person who can dispel anger.
Outside the door.
Ye Yin's eyes revealed trepidation and hesitation. She slowed her pace and looked at the door that was getting closer and closer, her expression gradually becoming tense.
For the entire afternoon, the strange look in the little servant's eyes kept replaying in her mind.
Hmph, I am the legitimate daughter of the Ye family, a prodigy in Qinzhou City, with countless young talents admiring me. At only eighteen years old, I already have the Qi Sensing cultivation level. How could I be afraid of a mere servant like him!
As Ye Yin approached the door, she saw candlelight suddenly illuminate the room. Her previously arrogant demeanor changed slightly, and she felt a pang of fear and unease.
She instinctively prepared to turn back.
But at this moment...
The door suddenly opened.
"Why did you visit so late at night, and why did you leave?"
Ning Xiuyang spoke with seemingly respectful words, but face to face, the mockery on his face and the ferocity hidden in his eyes made Ye Yin's heart pound wildly, and her eyes instinctively darted away.
"I noticed you seemed to be seriously injured at noon, so I came to inquire about your condition. Now that you are alright, you should rest well. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Ye Yin left after saying that, and then hurriedly turned to leave.
But as soon as she turned around, her wrist was grabbed.
"Why wait until tomorrow? Why not do it today?"
Ye Yin was startled and instinctively glanced around, muttering, "You bastard, are you crazy?!"
"If people find out, how can I maintain my position in the Ye family!"
Ye Yin gritted his teeth.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the courtyard at the moment, which put her at ease.
"Sound Slave, you're very disobedient!"
Ning Xiuyang snorted coldly, then turned to the side, his eyes filled with threat.
Seeing the threatening look in his eyes, Ye Yin's expression changed. After hesitating for a moment, she had no choice but to lower her head and step into the house.
squeak~
As the wooden door closed, it was as if another door opened in Ye Yin's heart, but her smooth and lustrous face still carried a hint of arrogance that lacked confidence.
"Don't always bully me, you little servant! I'm still your mistress!"
Ye Yin, though fierce, glared at Ning Xiuyang.
"Kneel down!"
After closing the door, Ning Xiuyang turned around and looked at Ye Yin, who had an arrogant and unruly demeanor and was still putting on airs like a young lady. He uttered two words indifferently.
"You bastard!"
Ye Yin cursed under her breath, her eyes filled with resentment.
But his knees betrayed him, buckling as he knelt on the dirty floor.
"Say it again, who are you?"
Ning Xiuyang looked down at the smooth, fair, youthful yet beautiful face in front of him, and the voluptuous figure beneath that face that rivaled her mother's.
"You!" Ye Yin was furious and ashamed, glaring at Ning Xiuyang through gritted teeth, but under his piercing gaze, she finally looked away, lowered her proud head, and said in a trembling voice, "Yin Nu..."
"That's a good boy."
Ning Xiuyang sneered, lifting the hem of his robe with one hand and using the other to lift Ye Yin's chin, looking at her face, which was incredibly beautiful and flushed red in the flickering candlelight.
A strong urge welled up inside me, an impulse to completely defile it!
"Well……"
Tears welled in Ye Yin's eyes as she let out a muffled groan of resentment and humiliation.
But deep down she knew she had no room to resist, and even... felt a faint sense of joy!
Pooh!
It's definitely not because the servant praised me for being well-behaved that I'm happy!
Ye Yin looked up at the lowly servant with humiliation, her eyes blazing with anger, yet concealing a hint of pleasure...
……
"Sound Slave, tell me, did your hesitation during the day mean you wanted me to die at Li Huailin's hands?"
Bed.
Ning Xiuyang, shirtless, leaned against the headboard. Ye Yin's pretty face was flushed, and her hazy almond-shaped eyes held a hint of lust. She was resting against Ning Xiuyang's stomach, biting her lip as if savoring the moment. This little servant's abilities seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and she was starting to feel overwhelmed...
Just as this thought popped into Ye Yin's mind, the words that suddenly rang in her ears startled her.
Sure enough, that bastard hadn't forgotten!
After Li Huailin presented her with five secret herbs and fifteen precious herbs, he asked her for the killer. Ning Xiuyang, who came in from outside the door at that time, saw his hesitation clearly.
With her vital point held in her grasp, Ye Yin felt a sudden surge of tension and unease, and her hazy almond-shaped eyes regained their clarity.
I was about to start explaining.
But when the words reached my lips, they took on a different meaning.
"Hmph! Don't you know how despicable you are? I not only want you to die at his hands, I want to kill you with my own hands, you bastard!"
Ye Yin gritted her teeth, letting out a cold snort that sounded fierce but was actually cowardly, still maintaining her arrogant demeanor.
As soon as those words left her mouth, completely subconsciously, she felt a pang of regret.
"Snapped!"
A slap rang out.
Ye Yin clutched her chest in horror, jumped up, and glared at Ning Xiuyang, her almond-shaped eyes filled with shame and indignation.
Ning Xiuyang looked at her expressionlessly and said, "This is the first and last time. If there's a next time, you know the consequences!"
Ye Yin's expression froze, her arrogance vanished instantly, and her aura weakened, especially since she was completely naked at the moment, and the bright red handprint seemed to still be proclaiming ownership of her body.
At this moment, Ning Xiuyang said again: "I am not threatening you with your secret, but ordering you as your master. As my slave, you should regard my life as your life. This is the duty of a slave."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yin immediately scoffed, her face flushing slightly, her expression a complex mix of shame and indignation as she said, "How dare you say such a thing?"
If you're going to stick to your duty as a slave, this bastard is the one you should stick to the most.
But he climbed on my head and peed on me!
How could he possibly do that!
Ning Xiuyang scratched his head awkwardly, then brazenly said, "I'm an exception!"
Ye Yin rolled her eyes, too lazy to argue with him. She got out of bed, picked up her tattered clothes and put them on. As she dressed, she casually asked, "What do you plan to do with that traitor?"
"Ask me?" Ning Xiuyang raised an eyebrow.
Ye Yin pouted and snorted, "Aren't you the master?"
Tsk.
Ning Xiuyang's heart stirred. The sixth young lady's arrogance remained as always, but it seemed that she had begun to subtly accept this abnormal relationship.
After thinking for a moment, he said directly, "Then let's kill them."
Upon hearing this decision, Ye Yin frowned, seemingly reluctant, but after opening her mouth, she nodded in agreement to the plan.
Then, she glanced at the lazy servant lounging on the bed with a look of disgust and a hint of condescension in her tone, and said in a nonchalant manner, "The five secret herbs and fifteen precious herbs given by the Li family are in my room. Come and get them from me whenever you need them. You can't absorb the secret herbs and precious herbs at this stage. Only after you reach the Blood Nourishing Realm or even the Inner Strength Realm will you be able to better absorb the medicinal power of the precious herbs."
In this world, the energy contained in various rare and precious materials varies. Some are mixed, some are pure, some are abundant, and some are meager. According to the summaries of sages throughout the ages and in comparison with the martial arts realms, generally speaking, those in the Body Tempering Realm can take ordinary medicines, while those in the Blood Nourishing Realm and even the Inner Strengthening Realm can absorb the immense energy in precious medicines. Above precious medicines, there are also secret medicines. If an ordinary mortal were to take even a tiny bit of such potent rare and precious materials, it would be too much for them and lead to their death.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Yin walked straight towards the door.
If people found out that I had stayed in the servant's room for so long, the sky would probably fall down.
Just as she listened intently and confirmed that there was no movement in the courtyard outside the door, and was about to open the door and slip out, a voice suddenly came from behind her.
"I heard from Granny Li that you like to wear clothes made of Zhou Kingdom black ice silk. I've drawn a pattern for you here. Take it back and make it according to the pattern, then wear it for me to see."
