Chapter 226

"They felt this person looked very much like a spouse to me, perhaps a match made in heaven, so they gave me her soul token."

Liu Xing: "..."

Seeing Jiang Sishui's serious face while he talked nonsense, she felt both angry and amused: "How did I not know the Twin Dragons have a habit of matchmaking?"

Jiang Sishui agreed: "That's why they call it fate!"

Hearing his nonsense, Liu Xing didn't expose him and asked again: "So you listened to them and went to find my father?"

Jiang Sishui nodded: "Isn't it just to make you happy?"

"But you've never seen me before."

"Well, now you have."

"So what about now? What do you think?"

"What?"

"Me."

"You... well, the Twin Dragons have excellent taste!"

Liu Xing rolled her eyes at him, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly; she said in a bad mood: "Then if I disagree, will you use your kindness to demand a return?"

Jiang Sishui thought for a moment, then shook his head: "In that case, I would still help you, then pester you, keep pestering you until you agree."

Liu Xing widened her eyes: "You're being shameless!"

Shameless?

Jiang Sishui neither denied it nor felt the slightest shame, smiling with a thick face.

Liu Xing let out a light snort from her nose and turned her face away.

Seeing this, Jiang Sishui quickly changed the subject: "I'll take you to the Ice Domain to completely remove the soul token's control over you."

Liu Xing paused, turned back to look at him, her eyes softening, and whispered: "Thank you."

"This is what I should do."

"Why didn't that Miss who cured my mother's eye disease come?"

"You mean Hou Jian? How about I take you to see her later? I know you don't want to leave your father and mother; rest assured, whenever you want to come back, you can."

Hearing this, Liu Xing lightly nodded her head.

After Jiang Sishui took out the "Supreme Conquest Map," she let him pull her into the light array.

In fact, Liu Xing had been mentally prepared for this day and wasn't very resistant.

After all, "one's mouth goes soft after eating others' food, and one's hand goes short after taking others' things," let alone owing Jiang Sishui such a huge favor?

It was just that her personality was a bit tsundere, so she was just acting a little spoiled.

Coincidentally, Jiang Sishui's shameless thick face happened to counter her perfectly.

Knowing that Jiang Sishui was determined to have her and she couldn't resist at all, Liu Xing went with the flow and half-heartedly agreed.

Ice Domain.

As soon as Jiang Sishui and Liu Xing appeared, enthusiastic members of the Rain Tribe came forward to greet them.

After exchanging a few words with them, Jiang Sishui headed straight for Xu Yang's residence.

"Yo, kid, you've changed to another pretty Miss by your side again."

A slightly teasing voice sounded; Jiang Sishui turned to look and saw Wu Zhou walking towards them with a half-smile on his face, looking like he was enjoying the show.

"Changed to another pretty Miss again?"

Liu Xing cooperated well, showing a look of suspicion at the right moment, while casting a death glare at Jiang Sishui.

Jiang Sishui felt a tingle on his scalp, stuffed the soul token into Liu Xing's arms: "Well, I'll explain that later; let's handle the important business first."

Saying this, without waiting for Liu Xing to ask again, he pulled her and ran towards Xu Yang's residence.

A moment later, taking advantage of the gap while Xu Yang was replenishing Liu Xing's soul, Jiang Sishui returned, found Wu Zhou, and complained: "Sister Zhou, are you deliberately messing with me?"

????????? Requesting flowers??????????

"Why would I mess with you? I just spoke the truth." Wu Zhou remained calm and self-assured, acting with no fear of consequences.

"You..." Jiang Sishui was speechless.

This woman who feared nothing more than his harem not being chaotic; if her brother weren't here, he would have to teach her a good lesson.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Jiang Sishui didn't dwell on this topic and changed the subject: "Sister Zhou, why didn't you go to the Mandala Shanzhuang to play today?"

Since befriending the Rain Tribe, Wu Zhou had also visited the Mandala Shanzhuang.

After all, having stayed outside for ten years, forcing her to be confined to the Ice Domain for the rest of her life would undoubtedly be difficult for her.

Considering this, Jiang Sishui persuaded Hou Jian to take her to the Mandala Shanzhuang.

Unfortunately, although Wu Zhou played, she never agreed to stay overnight at the Mandala Shanzhuang.

Before sunset, she would definitely return to the Ice Domain.

Jiang Sishui naturally dared not force her to stay.

Who could blame someone for having a good brother?

Wu Zhou glanced sideways at Jiang Sishui, suddenly smiled: "What's the rush? Isn't it still morning? What? Want to trick me into your home so you can bully me?"

Jiang Sishui shook his head repeatedly: "Sister Zhou, this is a misunderstanding of me; how would I dare? If I really dared to do that, wouldn't your brother skin me alive?"

"Brat, good to know!" Wu Zhou proudly raised her chin.

She immediately added: "You want to take that little Miss to the Mandala Shanzhuang, right? We'll take a detour later."

"Great!" Jiang Sishui naturally agreed at once, then started chatting about daily life with Wu Zhou.

Shortly after, Liu Xing came out.

Jiang Sishui quickly stopped talking and went to meet her: "Done?"

Liu Xing smiled faintly, and with a sudden jolt of force in her hand, the soul token that had been linked to her life shattered into several pieces.

Yet she herself was perfectly unharmed.

Seeing this, Jiang Sishui set his mind at ease.

Afraid Liu Xing would bring up what had just happened, he hastily summoned the light formation: "Let's go."

A flash of light, and the three vanished from the Ice Domain.

After returning to Mantuo Shanzhuang, Jiang Sishui directly led Liu Xing to meet Hou Jian, then made up an excuse and slipped away.

Some answers were not convenient for him to speak aloud, so he let Liu Xing see for herself.

As for how to counsel and persuade her, that heavy responsibility was left to Huang Rong and the others.

251 The Kind Deng Yuru, the Sudden Appearance of Kong Que Ling

【Jin Kaijia and Qiu Tianming had no grudge between them; the cause of their duel was a woman—Lady Jin】

【Lady Jin and Qiu Tianming were engaged by arrangement before birth; after her parents died early, she lived at Kong Que Shanzhuang, raised by the Qiu family】

【Later she met Jin Kaijia, ran off with Jin Kaijia, and bore a daughter, Liu Xing】

【Qiu Tianming did not cling to her either, but took another wife and had a son, Qiu Fengwu】

【However, many years later, Qiu Tianming still sought out Jin Kaijia to duel】

【A man's two greatest hatreds: the enmity of killing one's father, and the shame of having one's wife taken】

【He had to fight that battle, to give himself an answer】

As a newcomer, Liu Xing naturally was also assigned an independent private courtyard.

This was her first day at Mantuo Shanzhuang.

After the enthusiastic Huang Rong and the other women dispersed, it was already late, so she stayed the night here, and did not let Jiang Sishui escort her back to "Three-Nine-Three."

In her room, seeing the diary content updated today, Liu Xing was instantly stunned.

"Mother was someone else's child bride, and Father stole another man's fiancée?"

This news shook her into a daze, because if it were true, then her family would be far too unfair to the Qiu family!

Suddenly, Liu Xing recalled a matter from the past.

Jin Kaijia had disappeared after the decisive battle; nearly everyone believed he had died at Qiu Tianming's hands, and Liu Xing naturally was no exception.

After growing up, she mastered a set of formidable Wu Gong, and before the age of twenty, she was already a Grandmaster stronger than Ximen Yu.

At first, she not only searched everywhere for news of her father, but also plotted how to take revenge on Qiu Tianming and Kong Que Shanzhuang.

However, once she happened to mention her plan in front of her mother, Lady Jin's emotions became extremely agitated, and she sternly forbade Liu Xing from doing so.

Liu Xing was puzzled and asked the reason.

Lady Jin declared: anyone might have killed Jin Kaijia, but Qiu Tianming would not—at the very most, he would only have defeated Jin Kaijia.
