Ye MuXi stayed at home for the next two days without taking a step out of the house; training her physical fitness every day.
This time, she didn’t avoid Song QingLan when training anymore, but instead, increased her training in front of her every day.
Thus, Song QingLan and Little Shuang watched as their family’s lady was like a changed person, doing strange movements every day.
“Little Shuang, what is Xi’er doing again?”
Song QingLan looked at Ye MuXi not far away, putting a few rocks that weighed fifty or sixty pounds on her back, squatted down, then got up, then squatted down again, and got up again.
Little Shuang wiped her sweat in the sun and explained, “Madam, Miss said this is weight training to build up one’s fitness!”
As she said that, Little Shuang herself also carried a small stone and followed Ye MuXi’s exercise.
Song QingLan took a long look at Ye MuXi who was not far away, wondering what was going on in her head, and finally sighed.
“Isn’t there any movement at all from the Han clan?”
For the past two days, Song QingLan was a bit on edge at first , afraid that the Han clan would come to her door at some point.
To her surprise, it really was as Ye MuXi said, not only had the Han family not come to her door, they hadn’t even made a move at all.
“No.” Little Shuang said. “Madam, don’t worry, I think Miss is right, Han XiuYuan is such a pride-loving person, he will definitely not let anyone know that he been crippled by our lady, so as of now, he can only hide in his own home, not daring to come out.”
Song QingLan, however, didn’t dare to let down her guard. “The fact that they won’t come in the light, does not mean that they won’t come in the dark.. It’s still better to be careful.”
Song QingLan and Little Shuang spoke for a while longer, and not far away, Ye MuXi had changed into another exercise.
Only to see that she picked up a greenish-yellow leaf on the ground and hurled it out!
The flimsy leaf in her hand, as if it had become a sharp blade, embedded itself directly into the wall, burying one-third of it in!
Song QingLan was in shock!
She ran up to the wall to take a look at the leaf that had been thrown into the wall, and unexpectedly it had no fold to it at all!
How much speed and how much power, did it take to do that?
“Xi’er you…”Song QingLan turned back abruptly and stared at Ye MuXi.
“I trained.” Knowing that Song QingLan would definitely ask, she deliberately trained in front of Song QingLan these past two days.
Obviously, she couldn’t tell her that these were all survival skills she used to have to master when she was still in the Ministry of Defense.
She wasn’t Song QingLan’s true daughter, so she had to do this in order to have a better excuse for her all-powerful abilities to appear.
Song QingLan replied, “I know. What Mother still wants to know is, who taught you to train like this…?”
Ye MuXi responded. “Figured it out myself. No one taught me.”
Song QingLan’s gaze changed as she looked at Ye MuXi.
To be able to go this far without anyone teaching her, this could only be considered as a genius!
Why hadn’t she realized before that Xi’er had such talent?
Along with that thought, Song QingLan suddenly remembered that they’d been kicked out of the Ye family early. The Xi’er back then hadn’t been instructed by Immortals of Fate yet. In other words, Xi’er hadn’t gone to open her Divine Soul!
If Ye MuXi really possessed such talent, she would definitely be able to open up her Divine Soul, and with it, she could cultivate better.
Song QingLan’s gaze was thoughtful. Finally, she shoved the leaf back into Ye MuXi’s hand. “Good child, don’t worry, mother will definitely not let your talent be buried!”
With that, Song QingLan quickly left.
Ye MuXi looked at Song QingLan’s fading back, her willow brows slightly wrinkled. What did she mean?
However, it didn’t look like she couldn’t accept these abilities of hers, which was much more manageable if she didn’t.
.
Song QingLan went out and Ye MuXi followed suit.
She asked back the strange green finger clasps from Little Shuang and planned to go to the trading house herself to ask how much silver she could sell it for.
They were too poor right now—the silvers they had stolen from those corpses only amounted to a few thousand taels, and would soon be spent. She needed to think of a way to earn more money.
Ye MuXi was playing with the five green finger clasps just as she was about to go around the alleyway when she felt a threat pressing toward her!
Ye Muxi’s eyes chilled and her body lunged forward, rolling on the spot to avoid the cold air coming directly from behind her.
When she looked back, she saw a man with a grim face standing where she had just stood, his gaze eerily staring at the five finger clasps in her hand.
“Where did you get this thing?” He opened his mouth, his voice was unpleasantly rough.
Ye MuXi looked at the odd green finger clasps in her hand and wondered if it was her illusion that these five strange things began to turn warm after this man appeared.
Ye MuXi’s face was expressionless. “Picked it up.”
“Where did you pick it up?”
“You do not need to know this.”
The look on the man’s face became extremely hideous and terrifying. “Damned human, how dare you possess my clan’s inner beads! Today I will use your blood to sacrifice for the souls of my people!”
The words trailed off and he immediately attacked Ye MuXi!
He was extremely fast, vaguely bringing up a cold wind that carried a strange rotten smell, similar to the green finger clasps she held in her hand.
Damn humans?
Inner Bead?
Could it be that this person isn’t human?
Ye MuXi didn’t have time to think too much as the assailant was too fast and a hand had reached towards her neck.
Ye MuXi retreated slightly backward, but she still didn’t have time to completely avoid it and was touched by his skin.
It was reasonable to say that a normal human that even if their nails were long, couldn’t grow that much. But when this person’s hand touched her neck, his nails suddenly turned black and grew several centimeters in an instant, plunging right into her throat!
If she hadn’t avoided some vital points earlier, this long black nail would have just cut her aorta!
Ye MuXi paled, and quickly pulled out a sharp dagger and slashed the creature’s hand with force.
The monster’s hand was still stuck on her neck, and all of it had been cut off above his wrist, green blood flowing out of the monster.
“Chichi-“
The pained monster let out a sharp, ear-piercing scream, and started tearing at Ye MuXi even more frantically, vaguely having the position to transform out of its original body.
Ye MuXi was also a ruthless one. Knowing that he was stronger than her, she grimly held her own specially polished sharp dagger, ignoring the sharp claws and teeth of the monster scratching marks on her body, and very calmly and quickly, slashed at the monster.
Soon, the monster’s hands and feet were all cut off by her. It no longer was able to pounce or bite, lying on the ground dying. Only then did Ye MuXi sit on the ground numb and breathing softly.
She was dressed in a plain dress, with monster scratches all over her body; her bright red blood mixed with the monster’s green blood.
Ye MuXi panted, knowing that she couldn’t stay here long or she would surely be seen.
She braced her body with her dagger and slowly stood up.
Before fully getting up, a pair of navy blue noble boots suddenly came out in front of her.
Ye MuXi narrowed her eyes and slowly raised her head; and then was met with a pair of black eyes that were as unfathomable as the vast ocean and as bright as the vast glittering stars.
Ye MuXi was startled. Wasn’t this the brothel boy who was posing at the window late at night that day?
Lou JingXiao looked at Ye MuXi with a smiling face; when he saw that Ye MuXi’s entire body was covered with scars, he covered his nose. “Oh my, truly tragic! Truly tragic.”
Ye MuXi: “……..”
She looked at Lou JingXiao with a blank expression and cold eyes. “Go away, I’m not hiring a prostitute today either.”
Ye MuXi stayed at home for the next two days without taking a step out of the house; training her physical fitness every day.
This time, she didn’t avoid Song QingLan when training anymore, but instead, increased her training in front of her every day.
