While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

"They felt that this person and I looked like a perfect match, and that we were destined to be together, so they gave me her spirit tablet."

Liu Xing: "..."

Seeing Jiang Sishui's serious-sounding nonsense, she was both annoyed and amused: "How come I didn't know that Shuanglong had the habit of matchmaking?"

Jiang Sishui chimed in, "That's what you call fate!"

Liu Xing listened to his nonsense without calling him out, and asked again, "So you listened to them and went to find my father?"

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

"But you've never seen me before."

"Well, we've seen it now."

"So, what do you think now?"

"what?"

"me."

"You... well, Shuanglong has excellent taste!"

Liu Xing rolled her eyes at him, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up slightly. She said irritably, "So if I don't agree, are you trying to blackmail me for something in return?"

Jiang Sishui thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Then I will still help you, and then I will pester you, keep pestering you, until you agree."

Liu Xing glared at him: "You're being a scoundrel!"

Scoundrel?

Jiang Sishui neither denied it nor felt ashamed at all, and smiled shamelessly.

Liu Xing let out a soft snort and turned his face away.

Seeing this, Jiang Sishui quickly changed the subject: "I'll take you to the Ice Domain and completely remove the control of the Soul Card from your body."

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

"this is necessary."

"Why didn't the girl 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 parents. Don't worry, you can come back anytime you want."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xing nodded slightly.

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

In fact, Liu Xing was mentally prepared for this day and didn't really resist it.

After all, "one is obligated to accept food and gifts," especially when one has received such a great favor from Jiang Sishui.

She's just a bit arrogant, so she throws little tantrums.

Unfortunately, Jiang Sishui's shamelessness and scoundrelness were just what she needed to control.

Knowing that Jiang Sishui was determined to have her and that he couldn't resist, Liu Xing went along with it, half-heartedly giving in.

……

Icefield.

As soon as Jiang Sishui and Liu Xing appeared, the Rain Clan members warmly greeted them.

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

"Hey kid, you've got a new pretty girl by your side again."

A slightly mocking voice rang out. Jiang Sishui turned her head and saw Wu Zhou walking towards her with a half-smile on his face, looking like he was watching a good show.

"Another pretty girl?"

Liu Xing cooperated, revealing a suspicious look at the right moment, while casting a death stare at Jiang Sishui.

Jiang Sishui felt a chill run down her spine and stuffed the soul tablet into Liu Xing's arms: "Well, I'll explain this to you later. Let's take care of business first."

Without waiting for Liu Xing to ask any more questions, he pulled her towards Xu Yang's residence.

A moment later, while Xu Yang was restoring Liu Xing's soul, Jiang Sishui returned, found Wu Zhou, and complained, "Sister Zhou, you deliberately messed with me, didn't you?"

Requesting flowers (or flowers)

"Why would I bother with you? I was just telling the truth." Wu Zhou was calm and composed, showing no fear.

“You…” Jiang Sishui was speechless.

This woman who seems to thrive on chaos in his harem—if her brother weren't here, he would have given her a good beating.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Jiang Sishui didn't dwell on the topic and changed the subject: "Sister Zhou, why didn't you go to Mantuo Villa today?"

Since becoming friends with the Rain Clan, Wu Zhou has also visited Mantuo Villa.

After all, she had been away for ten years. To ask her to spend the rest of her life confined to the icy region would undoubtedly be putting her in a difficult position.

With this in mind, Jiang Sishui instigated Hou Jian to abduct her to Mantuo Villa.

... ...... ...

Unfortunately, although Wu Zhou enjoyed his leisure time, he never stayed overnight at Mantuo Mountain Villa.

We must return to the icy region before sunset.

Jiang Sishui naturally dared not force him to stay.

Who can blame her for having such a good older brother?

Wu Zhou glanced sideways at Jiang Sishui, then suddenly smiled: "What's your hurry? It's still morning! What? Trying to trick me into coming to your house so you can bully me?"

Jiang Sishui shook her head repeatedly: "Sister Zhou, you've misunderstood me. How could I dare? If I really dared to do that, your brother would skin me alive!"

"You brat, it's good that you know!" Wu Zhou proudly raised his chin.

He then added, "You're taking that little girl to Mantuo Manor, right? We can go that way later."

“Okay!” Jiang Sishui readily agreed, and then started chatting with Wu Zhou.

Shortly after, Liu Xing came out.

Jiang Sishui quickly stopped talking and went to greet him: "Are you done?"

Liu Xing smiled and with a sudden burst of strength, the soul tablet that was originally connected to her life broke into several pieces.

She herself is unharmed.

Seeing this, Jiang Sishui felt relieved.

Fearing that Liu Xing would bring up what had just happened, he quickly summoned a light array: "Let's go."

With a flash of light, the three disappeared into the icy realm.

After returning to Mantuo Villa, Jiang Sishui took Liu Xing directly to meet Hou Jian, and then made an excuse to slip away.

There were some answers he couldn't say aloud, so he told Liu Xing to see for himself.

As for how to guide and persuade her, that important task was left to Huang Rong and the others.

251. The kind-hearted Deng Yuru is surprised to find a peacock feather.

Jin Kaijia and Qiu Tianming had no prior grudges; the reason for their duel was a woman—Madam Jin.

[Madam Jin and Qiu Tianming were betrothed since childhood. After her parents died early, she lived in Peacock Manor and was raised by the Qiu family.]

Later, she met Jin Kaijia, ran away with him, and gave birth to her daughter Liu Xing.

Qiu Tianming did not persist in pursuing her; instead, he married another woman and had a son, Qiu Fengwu.

However, many years later, Qiu Tianming still sought out Jin Kaijia for a duel.

[Two great hatreds for men: the hatred of killing their father and the hatred of having their wife stolen]

He had to fight that battle to give himself an explanation.

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

This is her first day at Mando Manor.

After the enthusiastic Huang Rong and the other girls dispersed, it was already late, so she stayed there instead of having Jiang Sishui escort her back to "Sanjiusan".

Upon seeing today's updated diary entries in the room, Liu Xing was immediately stunned.

"My mother was someone else's child bride, and my father stole someone else's fiancée?"

The news shocked her so much that she was stunned, because if it was true, then her family had really let the Qiu family down!

Suddenly, Liu Xing recalled a past event.

Jin Kaijia disappeared after the decisive battle, and almost everyone believed that he died at the hands of Qiu Tianming, including Liu Xing.

As she grew up, she mastered superb martial arts skills, and before she was twenty, she had become a grandmaster even stronger than Ximen Yu.

At first, she was not only searching for her father's whereabouts, but also plotting how to take revenge on Qiu Tianming and Peacock Manor.

However, when Liu Xing casually mentioned his plan to his mother, Madam Jin became very agitated and sternly forbade him from doing so.

Liu Xing was puzzled and asked him why.

Madam Jin claimed: Anyone could kill Jin Kaijia, except Qiu Tianming; at most, he could only defeat Jin Kaijia.
