"No matter where it came from, just wear it with peace of mind."
Chen Nan smiled and gently pinched her nose.
He knew in his heart that if he told his junior sister the truth, this silly girl would definitely blame him for taking risks.
Chen Nan didn’t say anything, but Ye Yiyi wasn’t a fool. She could guess that such a rare treasure was definitely hard to come by. She held Chen Nan’s hand and said, "Senior brother, remember, you are the most important to me. If anything happens to you, even if my Poison Fire is completely resolved, I won’t live alone."
Chen Nan felt helpless.
He hadn’t said anything, but his junior sister still guessed, so he could only nod and say, "Don’t worry, I won’t joke around with my life."
Ye Yiyi stared at him without blinking, "Then swear, that you’ll never take even the slightest risk for me again."
Under the moonlight, her face was delicate and charming, beautiful beyond compare.
Chen Nan brushed away her hair that was stirred by the breeze and raised his finger, saying, "Alright, I swear, I’ll listen to you in everything and surely won’t take risks."
Although he said so, his heart was not thinking the same. As long as he saw a glimmer of hope, he would find a way to help his junior sister resolve the Poison Fire. Swearing now was just to make her feel at ease.
Ye Yiyi believed his words and smiled happily.
Sitting on a slab of stone, Ye Yiyi pointed at the moon in the sky and said, "Do you remember when we were little? We often sat together and watched the moon."
"Of course I remember, you silly girl even asked me to take down the moon and give it to you," Chen Nan laughed.
Ye Yiyi glanced at him, not satisfied, "You’re pretty dumb too, okay? You agreed to my request at the time, but haven’t brought down the moon all these years!"
Chen Nan kissed her cheek, saying seriously, "One day, I’ll definitely give you the moon."
Ye Yiyi smiled gently, "Alright, I’ll wait for that day."
"Rest assured, I won’t keep you waiting long."
Chen Nan touched her cheek and suddenly remembered something. He took out a piece of cloth from the storage ring and handed it to Ye Yiyi.
It was a piece of white cloth, but it was covered in purple-black writing, dried blood.
Ye Yiyi curiously took it, asking, "What is this?"
Chen Nan replied, "Do you remember the Ye Ruoshui I mentioned to you before?"
"The one who looks just like me, right? Of course, I remember. Did she find you to seek revenge?" Ye Yiyi looked at him puzzled.
Chen Nan nodded, then shook his head, saying, "She wanted revenge again this time. I was ready to kill her, but she took out this Blood Book, claiming she is your biological sister. I don’t know if it’s true, so I brought it back for you to see."
Ye Yiyi knitted her brows slightly and opened the Blood Book to read.
After a moment, she nodded gravely, saying, "This Blood Book does give me a familiar feeling; however, her twin is named Ye Ruoxue, and the birth date on here doesn’t match mine."
Chen Nan nodded, saying, "I also find this matter strange. The Blood Book’s birthday is June 12, but yours is June 15. Maybe we should ask our master; he might have gotten your birthday wrong."
"Alright, we shouldn’t delay. Let’s go right now."
Ye Yiyi stood up, her emotions slightly excited.
They were just about to leave when Xuan Tianji’s voice suddenly sounded from behind, "The Blood Book should be correct; your birthday may be June 12."
"Does that mean she really is my sister?" Ye Yiyi asked excitedly.
"Not sure, maybe." Xuan Tianji walked up step by step, explaining, "When I found you, I didn’t know your birth date, so I counted the day I found you as your birthday."
Ye Yiyi hurriedly asked, "What about my name?"
Xuan Tianji replied, "I didn’t know your name either. At the time, I just saw the word ’Ye’ embroidered on your swaddle and thought your surname might be Ye. As for ’Yiyi,’ it was the name of a female celebrity back then. I didn’t bother thinking about it, so I used it."
Chen Nan was speechless.
This name was taken so simply.
"When you found Yiyi, were there others nearby?" Chen Nan asked.
He had heard from Ye Ruoshui that when her adoptive parents found her, Ye Ruoxue had already been taken away by someone. If these matched up, then the Ye Ruoxue in the Blood Book should be the junior sister for sure.
Xuan Tianji nodded, saying, "That’s right. At the time, there were two infants and a young man who had died long ago in the woods."
Tears flowed from Ye Yiyi’s eyes.
She was pretty sure now that Ye Ruoxue was herself, and the young man Xuan Tianji mentioned was her father.
Xuan Tianji sighed, saying, "The girl didn’t have as good a foundation as you, so I couldn’t take her as my disciple. So I left her in the woods and told a nearby family to take her in."
Ye Yiyi’s hand trembled.
The Blood Book she held was written by her father with his blood.
After a long silence, she asked, "Master, do you know where my father is buried?"
Xuan Tianji shook his head, saying, "Your father’s funeral was arranged by that girl’s adoptive parents; however, those two passed away over ten years ago after being killed, so maybe only Ye Ruoshui knows now."
The previously good mood turned gloomy in an instant.
Looking at the Blood Book in her hand, she gritted her teeth and said, "The Blood Book says my family were killed by a foe named Wei Zhongda. Master, do you know who Wei Zhongda is?"
Xuan Tianji frowned, "You want revenge?"
"The vengeance for my parents cannot be shared under Heaven. As long as Wei Zhongda lives, I will tear him apart," Ye Yiyi’s eyes showed an unprecedented Killing Aura.
Xuan Tianji was silent for a moment, then shook his head, "This man disappeared from Jianghu ten years ago, likely not alive anymore. If he really is alive, with your current cultivation, you’re no match for him."
Ye Yiyi nodded and said no more.
Not knowing her origins, she lived easily before, but now knowing these, it felt like a mountain weighed on her shoulders, making her wish to drag Wei Zhongda out and tear him apart immediately.
"Stop thinking about it, these things are over, cheer up."
Chen Nan hugged his junior sister, regretting a bit for taking out the Blood Book. If she didn’t know these things, maybe she could be happier.
Ye Yiyi showed a trace of a smile, "I’m fine, don’t worry."
At this moment, Xuan Tianji came over, pulled Chen Nan aside, and said, "You brat, come here, the old man has something to tell you."
