Chapter 208 Sisters and Brothers in the Snow
Mu Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and a complex expression flashed across his face as he looked at Ye Wanqing. Finally, he nodded slightly, "Yes, Wan'er, do you hate your master?"
Ye Wanqing paused for a moment, clutching the Imperial Spirit Flute in the gift box tightly in her hand. The corners of her lips curled upwards, "Of course not. As long as Master is here, nothing else matters to me."
A wry smile flashed across Mu Qing's face, but in the end, he said nothing. He simply patted Ye Wanqing's shoulder and said, "Wan'er, the person you're thinking of may one day return safely."
Ye Wanqing's heart moved, and their eyes met, everything was said without words.
After all the guests left, Ye Wanqing left the Ye family alone without telling anyone and walked aimlessly on the street.
At this time, the sun sets and night gradually falls.
In the evening, there was a slight chill in the air, snow fluttered down, and the cold wind blew in her face, ruffling Ye Wanqing's black hair. Her red dress was particularly conspicuous against the white snow.
Ever since she came to the Sky Continent, she seemed not to have walked alone for a long time. She didn't know if it was because of the surrounding spiritual environment, but the winter nights in the Sky Continent were even colder than those in the Sky Spirit Realm.
Although she was protected by divine power, Ye Wanqing still felt a chill.
Suddenly, a loud roar of curses mixed with painful groans rang out, which was particularly obvious in the quiet winter night.
"Bah! Where did this thief come from? You have no money and you come to me to get medicine. You won't give me any money, but you dare to steal my medicine! Do you really think I'm a philanthropist? Get away from me and don't block my business. Come on, someone, come on."
The woman tightly grasped the pill in her hand. Countless fists and sticks hit her body, but she seemed to be unaware of the pain. Drops of blood oozed out of her mouth and splashed on the snow on the ground, as if brewing blood flowers.
"Boss, my little brother is seriously injured and the poison has relapsed. Without the antidote, he won't survive tonight. Boss, if you can give my brother the antidote tonight, I will sell myself as a slave and give you gold coins."
The man's eyes widened in anger. "Bah! Xinghui Country has long since clearly stipulated that selling people into slavery is prohibited. Are you trying to kill me? You don't have any money, and you still want an antidote? Dream on. I think your brother doesn't need to be treated. He's just a pretty boy. Let him die, but well~"
"Young lady, I think you are quite good-looking. How about you sell yourself to me for one night, and I can give you the detoxification pill."
The attendant behind the owner of the medicine shop looked a little worried. "Boss, this is the third one this month. You'd better be more restrained. If the authorities find out, we'll all be doomed. His Majesty the Emperor hates this kind of thing the most."
"Just shut up! I have plenty of security guards in the royal family."
The woman's mind moved, and her hands gradually clenched into fists. Her ten fingers inserted straight into her palms, bleeding without her knowing it. The wounds on her body were also aching, not only the new wounds, but also the old wounds.
She bit her lower lip tightly, and in an instant, blood was dripping from the corner of her lip. "Okay, I promise."
Ye Wanqing, who was hiding in the dark, looked at everything around her quietly with a dull expression in her eyes, but the meaning in her eyes was unclear.
"No, no, sister!"
I saw a man about the same age as the woman just now struggling to walk over. He limped with each step, obviously using all his strength, "Sister!"
The man looked at the injuries on the woman's body with a feeling of heartache. He could no longer suppress the tears in his eyes. "Sister, I don't want it. I don't want the detoxification pill. I don't want it."
"Don't cry!"
The woman's eyes were gloomy, and she looked at the man with a rebuttal that could not be refused, "Mu Sheng, I won't allow you to shed a single tear!"
She walked to the man's side, her eyes earnest and her voice very low, but Ye Wanqing, who was hiding in the dark, still heard it.
"Listen, you are the next island master. You cannot suffer any harm. You must bear the revenge of your parents and the hatred of your family! You are not allowed to cry!"
Chu Musheng hid the tears in his eyes. Although his face was pale and he had no strength left in his body, he still shook his head stubbornly.
Ye Wanqing looked at the two siblings, and for some reason she suddenly thought of herself and her junior brother, the hatred for their master and the genocide. Once upon a time, she also advised and warned her junior brother that the disciples of the temple should shed blood but not tears. Her eyes flashed slightly, and the Ningyu in her hand had already opened.
The owner of the medicine shop had obviously lost all his patience. "Hurry up, or you'll lose this shop and you'll just have to watch your brother die."
The woman closed her eyes slightly, forced herself to endure the cramping pain in the blood vessels of her limbs, and slowly approached the owner of the medicine shop.
Just as the man's dirty hands were about to touch the woman's waist, a strange light flashed, and in an instant, fine and dense bumps began to grow on the man's hands, face, and body, causing him unbearable pain and itching.
The pain and itchiness quickly spread throughout his body. He couldn't scratch it, nor could he endure it. The intense discomfort made his heart tremble. "What are you still standing there for? Find an alchemist to save me!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
The servant did not forget to take the pill from the woman's hand. Seeing that she refused, he was about to kick her when a strange light flashed. The servant who had just snatched the pill felt the same unbearable pain as his boss.
Chu Guining was startled, realizing that someone was helping them in the dark. She half-knelt down and said, "Thank you, benefactor."
But there was only the whistling cold wind and the falling snow, and no one was in sight.
Just when Chu Guining was about to feed Chu Musheng the detoxification pill, a bottle of pills fell beside her, and at the same time, a cold voice sounded.
"That detoxification pill is useless. Today is Miss Ye's birthday. The Ye family is opening their warehouses and providing some gold coins and resources free of charge."
