Chapter 278 She really forgot

The battle on the arena gradually became one-sided.

Jiang Xuan'an was tied down by Xiao Ke and had no time to spare.

Lin Youran faced off against Yin Zhongyu, their spiritual energy mixed with poison flying around, resulting in a fierce and evenly matched battle.

Yang Yousheng was forcing Ye Zhenzhou to retreat to the edge of the arena.

With Lin Youran's pills as a precaution, Ye Zhenzhou's attempts to throw out handfuls of pills were completely ineffective, and his spiritual attacks were blocked one by one. He could only be forced off the arena by Yang Yousheng's fists.

As Ye Zhenzhou fell off the arena, Chu Jianyan walked up and asked worriedly, "Are you hurt?"

Ye Zhenzhou shook his head, looking at Yang Yousheng who had turned to help Xiao Ke, "Body cultivators are terrifyingly powerful!"

"It's clear that Yang Yousheng held back." Qingya walked up, raised his hand, patted his fifth junior brother on the shoulder, and comforted him, "You've done a great job of holding your own against him for so long."

“That’s true,” Chu Jianyan said gently.

Ye Zhenzhou gave a relaxed smile. "I know."

Seeing that Ye Zhenzhou seemed to be in a relaxed mood, Chu Jianyan and Qingya both breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Youqing watched the battle on the arena with a look of happiness in his eyes.

The senior students are amazing!

"Little Lord."

A sweet, charming voice rang out a few steps away.

The relaxed and carefree expression on Shen Quelin's face vanished instantly, and his sharply defined features turned cold and stern.

"The eldest young master is back." Shen Qiuluo said with a hint of emotion, her eyes glancing intentionally or unintentionally toward the high platform.

Shen Quelin didn't even look at Shen Qiuluo, his cold and impatient voice rang out, "Shen Qiuluo, you should know my temper."

Sensing the warning in Shen Quelin's words, Shen Qiulu chuckled softly, "Young Master doesn't need to be so wary of me. You've already cut off my backing."

Shen Quelin took a step and walked directly to Shen Youqing's other side, his impatience and disgust clearly written on his face.

Shen Youqing glanced at her sideways.

A sinister glint flashed in Shen Qiuluo's eyes. Just as she was about to speak, suppressing the ruthlessness in her heart, a melodious and clear voice rang out, "Trying to incite your brother's relationship with Shen Quelin?"

Shen Qiulu looked up and met Shen Youqing's gaze, feeling as if her scheming thoughts had been exposed.

She looked away, and said with a mocking smile, "Sister, you really know how to slander people."

Just as Shen Youqing was about to speak, Shen Quelin tugged at her sleeve and said, "Father is calling us."

The brother and sister walked side by side toward the platform.

After greeting each of the venerable ones, Shen Youqing stood beside Shen Lin.

Shen Lin was in a good mood, and he spoke gently and casually, "I just asked Wu Ye, and he will also be attending the aristocratic family gathering. You three siblings should help each other out then."

Shen Youqing responded.

Shen Quelin nodded slightly to Shen Wuye beside him and called him "brother".

Shen Wuye nodded in return, his gaze falling on Shen Youqing.

"Brother," Shen Youqing greeted him politely.

Shen Youqing didn't have many memories of this older brother.

He was taken away by his maternal grandfather, Venerable Yunyi, as his closed-door disciple as soon as he was born, and the total time he spent back in the Shen family was less than a month.

"Youqing has grown into a beautiful young woman," Shen Wuye's gentle voice rang out.

Under Shen Youqing's somewhat probing gaze, he revealed a sincere and gentle smile, "I haven't yet congratulated Youqing on successfully forming your core. This is a gift your brother prepared for you."

Faced with Shen Wuye's enthusiastic attitude, Shen Youqing was somewhat confused, but she would not refuse Shen Wuye's good intentions.

After receiving the storage ring from Shen Wuye, Shen Youqing said thank you, "Thank you, brother."

Shen Wuye smiled.

Seeing that the siblings got along quite well, Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, Yue Shihao frowned as she watched.

Shen Wuye's birth mother was no kind person. She was obsessed with Shen Lin to the point of madness, and Shen Wuye was a child she had obtained through some means.

If she remembered correctly, that woman was still being held captive.

Thinking about why that woman was imprisoned, Yue Shihao couldn't help but ponder whether Shen Wuye's enthusiastic attitude towards Jinjin had ulterior motives. Yue Hehua glanced at her younger sister's less-than-pleasant expression and knew what she was thinking.

He spoke gently to Shen Youqing, "Jinjin, go to the Yue family later."

"Okay," Shen Youqing replied.

Yue Xunzhu, who was sitting to the side, waved to her, signaling her to come over.

Shen Youqing took a step and walked over directly, standing next to Yue Xunzhu and bending down.

Yue Xunzhu tilted her head slightly and said in a low voice, "I have something to tell you when we go to the Yue family later."

Shen Youqing nodded.

Yue Xunzhu raised his hand and patted her head affectionately and naturally, "Go."

Shen Youqing turned around and walked over, said a few words to Shen Lin, and then left the high platform to go to the arena.

When she returned, Xiao Ke and the others had just finished their fight.

Seeing the man's childish look of seeking praise, Shen Youqing gave him a thumbs up and said, "Keep it up."

"We're already in first place." Xiao Ke complained, seemingly dissatisfied, as he grasped Shen Youqing's hand.

Lin Youran stretched and exclaimed, "I never thought I could get first place!"

It seems she has some ability!

"Third Senior Sister is amazing! Fourth Senior Brother is amazing too!" Shen Youqing said sincerely and happily.

Seeing Shen Youqing's perfectly timed tone and emotions, Lin Youran smiled happily, then gave Xiao Ke a provocative smile.

Yang Yousheng gave a slight, shy smile.

Feeling the undeniable resentful gaze of the man behind her, Shen Youqing patted his hand. "My brother needs to talk to me about something. I'll head back now."

Xiao Ke responded, secretly planning how to handle the situation afterward.

Shen Youqing turned and walked towards the Yue family's territory.

"Youqing".

As Shen Youqing descended the stone steps, he looked back and saw Shen Wuye catching up in a few steps.

"Brother." Shen Youqing nodded slightly.

Shen Wuye smiled. "Father told me to go back and rest. Is it on my way?"

The territories of several powerful families are all in the same area, and the routes they take to get there are indeed the same.

Shen Youqing nodded slightly.

Halfway up the mountain, the two turned onto a side road and headed towards the place where the aristocratic family was stationed.

The two remained silent the entire way.

Suddenly, Shen Wuye's gentle voice rang out, "Does Youqing still remember what happened before?"

what's up?

Shen Youqing couldn't remember for a moment and looked over with a puzzled expression.

Shen Wuye lowered his eyelids slightly, concealing the darkness and gloom in his eyes.

She really forgot.

Seeing that Shen Wuye's expression was somewhat sad, Shen Youqing blinked and carefully chose his words before speaking, "Was it because I was ignorant and offended my elder brother when I was young?"

"How could that be!" Shen Wuye suppressed the sadness in her eyes, looked up at Shen Youqing, and said in a gentle tone that still couldn't hide a hint of loneliness, "It seems that Youqing has really forgotten."

Yes, how can someone like him be worth remembering?

Shen Youqing felt that Shen Wuye was acting a little strange.

However, Shen Wuye's attitude towards her was not malicious; on the contrary, he was quite friendly.

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. Shen Youqing raised his hand and scratched his head. "It seems to be a very important matter. Can you give me a hint, brother?"

Shen Wuye smiled, and instead of saying anything more, changed the subject, "How have you been these past years?"

“Okay.” Shen Youqing smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards, her smile perfectly polite and courteous.

Shen Wuye wasn't stupid; he could sense Shen Youqing's politeness and aloofness.
