Uesugi Kiyoshi did have things to do. He had to go and check out the situation outside. Xingzi's current condition was not good, and there was a monk waiting for him to interrogate. He had a lot of work to do.

He pondered for a few seconds, nodded slowly, and looked deeply at Shiina Kikyo.

She was still wearing her "work clothes" at that time, which was a relatively revealing maid outfit, but it made her face look even more beautiful.

Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned.

He was not conservative, but seeing that Shiina Kikyo was shivering from the cold, he grabbed the association's standard windbreaker he had just put on and carefully draped it over Shiina Kikyo's shoulders.

Then he sighed, turned around and left without saying anything more.

Before long, there were only a few people left in the room, with only a few diligent field agents collecting bodies and cleaning the scene.

Ueno Sanishi smiled, with his hands behind his back, and looked at Shiina Kikyo from a distance of several meters without speaking first.

Shiina Kikyo felt a little embarrassed by his gaze, so she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Senior, is there anything else I can help you with?"

The white-haired old man smiled faintly, but what he said moved Shiina Kikyo's heart.

"Are you willing?"

Shiina Kikyo raised her head inch by inch, blinked her big watery eyes, and said hesitantly: "What did you say?"

Ueno Sanishi still smiled very kindly and repeated his words.

"I'm asking, Miss, are you willing?"

Immediately afterwards, Ueno Mitsuishi did not give Shiina Kikyo any more time to think.

"I am an old man. I have lived for so many years and have experienced the ups and downs of life. I can tell what young people of your age are thinking at a glance."

"Do you know that from what you said before and the look in your eyes just now, even a fool can see that your affection for Uesugi-kun has probably exceeded the boundaries of friendship, right?"

Shiina Kikyo's cheeks blushed slightly, but she was a strong girl who had experienced the beatings of society after all. She was not shy, but just nodded and sighed softly.

"You can see it, but some people can't."

Ueno Sanishi shook his head meaningfully.

"I know what you mean - do you think Uesugi-kun really can't see it?"

"He just knows how to play dumb - all men know how to play dumb, and he is naturally good at it."

"Okay, let's not talk about that."

"You don't know much about the extraordinary world, so let me briefly say that Uesugi-kun asked a god-level being to come to his aid, used rare magic, and paid the due price to pull you back from the gates of hell. And, is this how you treat your savior?"

"You like him, why don't you say it?"

Shiina Kikyo was a little depressed. She shook her head vigorously and said with a sad smile: "It's not that I'm hypocritical, but why should I accept his kindness as a matter of course?"

"People like me. People like me!"

"I don't deserve it!"

"."

"I don't even have the qualifications to like him. He's a good man. When he was a poor student, he was willing to fight for me and Himawari, but we will only drag him down!"

"I have long lost the qualifications to like someone."

"When did it start?"

"Was it when mom and dad died? Or when you started working as a hostess in a brothel?"

“I can’t remember.”

There was no sadness on Shiina Kikyo's face, only calmness, and her voice was not tearful, but straightforward. However, this made Ueno Mitsuishi a little frightened.

The greatest sorrow is a dead heart. If it weren't for the restraint of her younger sister, this girl would have committed suicide long ago, right?

For such a person, you need to give her a goal.

Ueno Mitsuishi's smile became softer.

"You are right about one thing. Uesugi-kun is a good man."

"He often claims to be a villain, but that is just a disguise to harden his heart. Deep down, he is a kind person."

"For an old man like me who he just met not long ago and is about to die, he is willing to risk his life and fight against ghosts and gods."

"So, in order to repay my gratitude, I bid farewell to the lord I have served all my life, and vowed to be loyal to Lord Uesugi for the rest of my life."

"People like me know how to repay kindness."

"Ms. Shiina, don't you want to do something for Uesugi-kun?"

"Just like he helped you so many times."

There was a ripple in Shiina Kikyo's eyes. She looked at Ueno Mitsuishi but just shook her head.

"What can someone like me do to help him?"

"Not being by his side and ruining his life is the only thing I can do for him, right?"

"Don't underestimate yourself, Ms. Shiina."

"You are different now. You are very lucky. You stepped into the door of transcendence by chance. You are already above many people."

"You are no longer the weak girl who can only hide behind others. You have a more colorful life waiting for you."

"So, are you going to give up?"

"Mr. Uesugi has risen to prominence and established a great empire, but he has no foundation after all, and is in need of manpower."

"I'm having a hard time managing this alone."

"Uesugi-kun has several companies under his name that no one is watching over, the dojo is also short of people to manage, and there are even fewer people in the association who can manage things - how can you say you can't help him?"

Shiina Kikyo murmured, "I didn't even finish high school, how could I know these things?"

"You can learn if you don't know how to do it! Don't you even have this little bit of determination?"

"You have to understand that you are now a transcendent, and you are different from ordinary people."

"Ms. Shiina."

"No, that's not a reason."

Shiina Kikyo was stumped by Ueno Mitsuishi's question.

However, what followed was what made her even more shaken.

The old man with a head full of silver hair suddenly smiled ambiguously.

"Xingzi - the girl who just rescued you. Her background may not be much better than yours."

"You should understand that love is not about birth, but about marriage."

"It's not that serious yet."

"and"

"It's true that Uesugi-kun has a girlfriend."

"But, in my opinion"

“I’m afraid there’s more than one.”

Chapter 350 Warm

.

Maki Toufumi looked at Anzi who was supported by Uesugi Kiyoshi, her eyes full of envy.

However, she still kept this feeling deep in her heart.

The eldest daughter of the Dongwen family will not give in easily, nor will she be easily changed of her mind.

As long as you stay by my husband's side, there will be a day.

I swore to myself that Uesugi Kiyoshi was not in a good mood.

Because that monk died.

The way he died was very strange. He died with a smile on his face. When Uesugi Kiyoshi went to ask Toufu Maki to leave, the monk was already dead, and even had severe rigor mortis.

It's like being dead for many days.

After a few more minutes, Uesugi Kiyoshi could even smell the distinct stench of a corpse.

He didn't think that the monk was committing suicide. If he had this kind of mentality, he would have killed himself long ago because he couldn't bear the humiliation.

Then he was silenced.

Before he died, he let out a hint and mentioned a place name, "Wuxinyuan", so the clue was not completely cut off.

But Uesugi Kiyoshi still felt very annoyed.

This monk killed "Yamato", and Yamato was considered half a student of Uesugi Kiyoshi.

He also wanted to use the broken sword left by Yamato to cut off the monk's body piece by piece, so that he could feel the pain more deeply.

Now this plan has gone down the drain.

Uesugi Kiyoshi walked forward dejectedly, when suddenly a voice came from his head.

"Don't be so depressed, Uesugi. It's not all in vain."

"I have memorized the flavor of that monk just now, whether it was the Buddhist Sanskrit chanting or the body of the Son of God mixed with my power."

"very familiar."

"Hmph, it smells like Mount Ibuki."

"If the person behind him appears in front of me, I can recognize him accurately."

"Also, give me some time. I'll study the nature of his power and maybe I can trace its source."

"Don't worry, you are helping me find the divine body, why wouldn't I help?

Shuten-doji's voice rang out, and finally there was good news.

Uesugi Kiyoshi sighed and silently agreed.

At this point, there is nothing we can do but take things one step at a time.
