and counsel so we can jointly govern Beqi together." 。 。The children within the city all prioritize their studies. Nearly every household, whether it's a young master or a young lady, hires tutors fo...She told Shi Liyuan about the things she had analyzed, mentioning that Old Madam Ye had favored a scholar when she was in Xiushan County, and speaking of the different treatment the eldest and second sons' branches had received over the years, as well as Old General Ye's attitude towards his two sons. 。Though not spoken in detail, it was concise and to the point. Shi Lifeng understood. 。After understanding, I could only sigh that I had really neglected worldly affairs for too long. I never expected that ordinary people's lives would be so bold. The head wife of a prestigious general's mansion actually managed to pull off such a huge deal in secret. 。Ye Wen asked him, “Analyze for me, do you think my grandfather knew about this beforehand That's why he's always been cold towards my second uncle's family, never properly taught him martial arts, and didn't arrange any official positions for him” 。Although I was later given the title of Night Second General, I feel that kind of position is no better than not having one at all. It's like being humiliated. 。"Shi Liyuan analyzed for a while, feeling that he couldn't understand his own analysis: "The strengths and weaknesses of ordinary people are beyond my comprehension, I can't figure them out. All I feel is that what you said makes sense." 。As for the evidence, if it's really not working out, maybe try some spiritual searching. 。"

"Searching for spirits can drive people insane. "

“She doesn't like this method. If she were to be foolish, I wouldn't even feel satisfied killing her.” 。So this matter still needs to be investigated through normal channels, and the dead need to die clearly and convincingly. 。After finishing, he touched his nose and said, "People without conscience will never admit defeat. Then we have to make them die with enough fear, despair, and pain." 。This way, the sins will be branded onto their souls like an indelible mark, throughout this life, past lives, and future lives, for all lifetimes to come. 。To make them spend every life burdened with this pain, until their sins are atoned for, until those they killed can forgive them. 。As she spoke, Shi Lifen could feel the little girl on her back trembling. 。He tilted his head and asked her, "Are you cold" She shook her head. "It's not cold, it's just that there's a surge of resentment in my heart that I can't control." 。This is my hatred, and also the hatred of Lady Ye Si. 。Because she lost her dearest person, and lost her own life, I also lost my dearest person, and also lost my own life. 。I've been thinking about this lately, even if the authorities manage to develop a spirit-piercing gun, it wouldn't be easy for them to break into Ye Family's ancestral home. 。The Ye family ancestral home is heavily fortified, with layers of talismans and prohibitions laid down by our ancestors over generations. Even if they had spirit-piercing guns, it would be impossible for them to break through these defenses and barge directly into the main hall. 。"Your meaning is...there's an informant" 。She nodded, “I wouldn’t entertain such thoughts before because I believed everyone in the Ye family should be united and working towards our own family.” 。However, the truth is that without inside help, those with spirit guns couldn't even get through the door. 。In the end, we still died at the hands of our own people. And to this day, I can't figure out who these people were. 。"Ye Wenyan gritted his teeth, "Or maybe, even if I knew who he was, I would never be able to avenge myself." 。“ Although Ye Si Miss still had someone to fulfill her wish, she herself could no longer intervene in the past affairs. 。“It's all in the past” 。He comforted her, "It's all in the past. Since we can't go back, we can only look forward. After all, people have to keep moving forward." 。

Just like I sometimes think, if I could have been aware of the disappearance of heaven and earth's spiritual energy back then, perhaps I could have found some clues and reasons.

Some things can ultimately be missed, with no chance to start again. 。" He lifted the little girl on his back a bit higher, but she was already too exhausted to say anything. She lay limply on his shoulder and murmured, "It's time for Zi shi, I can't bear it any longer." 。The feeling of having your spirit drained all at once is something you haven't experienced, it's really unbearable. 。He felt a pang of heartache, but there was nothing he could do to take it away for her. 。Being able to cultivate with flowers is a unique ability that sets Ye Wen apart from other cultivators. It allows her to use spiritual power even in the absence of earthly spiritual energy, a gift bestowed by heaven itself. 。While bestowing a gift, it also requires the recipient to forfeit their spiritual energy on the 15th of every month as payment. 。Heaven always makes a profit and never loses. 。"Take a nap!" A faint red glow emanated from him, and Ye Wen felt a wave of warmth envelop his entire body. The discomfort caused by the loss of spiritual power immediately subsided considerably. 。She didn't feel uncomfortable, so she couldn't fall asleep. She kept talking to Shi Lifeng, and the topic always circled back to those same things. The more she talked, the worse her mood became, and the more she felt like everyone in her past life was a thief. 。She thought for a moment, "What happy thing could there be The Ye family is in chaos, the royal family is in chaos, just thinking about it makes my heart ache." 。He then started a conversation: "Have you ever thought about raising a spirit pet" The little girl instantly perked up: "Spirit pet How do you raise one Do you have a spirit pet" He said, "I don't have one now, but I used to. It was a water qilin" 。That qilin drank the spiritual spring water in my cave every day. Before the heaven and earth's spiritual energy disappeared, it had grown to the twelfth level. One more level and it could try crossing the Heavenly Tribulation and transforming into a human form. 。Unfortunately, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dissipated, it ultimately could not survive. 。At that time, I thought of many ways to save its life, but none were successful. 。"

Ye Wen listened, utterly dumbfounded, "Kirin That's a mythical creature from ancient times, something that only exists in legend... " 。In my time, qilin were only found in books. I never expected you to have actually raised one. 。Back then, were there creatures like Qilin here Could ancient mythical beasts have lived until now" Shi Liyuan shook his head. "How could they have survived Ancient cultivators are all long dead, how could mythical beasts live on That water Qilin only left a wisp of its primordial spirit in an artifact. I got that artifact by chance and discovered its primordial spirit. So, I put the primordial spirit into a soul-rearing artifact and raised it for a few years, barely managing to revive it. 。As for its body, it was crafted by me using seventy-seven forty-nine kinds of exotic materials and magical techniques. 。If I don't tell this, no one will know its origin. The body is like the real one, and no one can tell the difference. 。"You're truly amazing," Ye Wen exclaimed sincerely. "I couldn't do this, or rather, I couldn't because I never learned a technique that could help materialize flesh and blood. In our time, it would have been impossible to gather so many materials anyway." 。Back then, only the Ye Family could still cultivate spirits. So we had no like-minded individuals to communicate with or exchange knowledge with, nor any way to acquire and develop more. 。We can only consume what our ancestors left behind. By the time I die, those resources will be almost gone. Even without being shot by the authorities, the Ye family wouldn't last much longer. 。“ So everything is fate, then!” “Let’s talk about spirit pets instead.” 。"He had a headache, how could he keep talking and get upset again 'Ayan, although my spirit pet died in that disaster, I couldn't raise another one afterward because there was no spiritual energy between heaven and earth." 。But you are different, you use flowers as bait and destroying them as your spirit source, so if you want to raise a spirit pet, it's still possible. 。She thought for a while, feeling unconvinced. "Raising one isn't the problem, but where can we find a spirit pet There's no spiritual energy in the world anymore. Any spirit pets that existed would have died out long ago." 。I can't just grab any dog off the street to feed, can I Although I could use spirit energy to nourish it, I still don't believe it would grow into a spirit companion. 。"Death is death, but it doesn't necessarily mean the end. " 。"Shi Li Yuan said, 'I knew that beneath the thousand-year ice layer in the extreme north, a blue fox was frozen.'" 。That blue fox had a certain level of cultivation hundreds of years ago, it was raised by one of my former fellow disciples. 。After the celestial energy vanished, my younger brother risked his life to send it back to the far north and threw it into a crevice in the glacier with his own hands. 。For hundreds of years, I have been keeping an eye on that burial ground for foxes, and I have even channeled spiritual energy into the glacial crevice. 。Although the blue fox is asleep, it can still receive spiritual energy. That means it's still alive. 。If you wish to raise it, I can help you retrieve the blue fox. 。" Night Wen listened, stunned. “Fox, a fox spirit Shi Liyuan, are you raising this creature for me or for yourself” Shi Liyuan also looked confused. "What's a fox spirit" “It’s a fox that has become a spirit.” 。She explained to him, "After a fox becomes a spirit, it will turn into a bewitching beauty and specialize in seducing scholars and the like." 。< Having a good time with the man, destroying the man's family, and also absorbing his yang energy, eating his flesh > 。In the end, the man is tortured until he's just a piece of skin or becomes a male servant. 。Shi Lifen was hearing such a story for the first time, he analyzed it seriously and shook his head again and again: “Nonsense! This deity has lived for over four hundred years and has never seen such a fox” 。Foxes are relatively cunning animals, but since they are spirit beasts, it is natural to raise such intelligent ones. One couldn't possibly raise a clumsy and uncivilized beast. 。"Then what if it tempts you" "...This deity, if I recall correctly, should be a male fox." 。"Then what if it tempts me" "...then you still shouldn't raise it." 。" I'm raising! " her interest was piqued. 。In her past and present lives, the concept of a spirit pet was something she had only heard about in legends, mentioned only in the records of her ancestors. She had never had the opportunity to catch and raise a spirit beast herself. 。Such a great opportunity shouldn't be missed. 。Then she consulted with Shi Liyuan, saying: "Why don't you just go Don't worry, the spiritual energy you expend on this trip, I will replace it all by giving you a large quantity of flowers." 。Anyway, with spring warming up and flowers blooming everywhere, setting up a spirit gathering formation would be easy peasy. 。"Good Xiaoshi, go tomorrow and bring back the blue fox for me!" He chuckled, "You're always so impatient..." 。 。" >ke a break for myself. I went up to Yanhuashan mountain to breathe in the fresh air and feel revitalized. Tomorrow, I'll be full of energy again. 。And I feel that if I visit Yanhuashan a few more time...
