Zhu Yuheng was willing to sacrifice her life to avoid the Gu family from getting hurt.
Her life was worth nothing at all. However, the lives of the Gu family members were the most precious and important existence in her heart.
Zhu Yuheng looked at Lin Qiye with determination.
She was ready to face death.
Although she was usually timid, cautious, and soft-hearted, at this moment, she was more determined than ever.
Lin Qiye was touched by her determination and shook his head slightly.
“I’m just telling you. Why do you want to die?
“Do you remember that you haven’t repaid me yet?
“I’ve said it before. No matter what, you have to live well and be happy.”
Zhu Yuheng held back her tears and shook her head silently.
“I’d rather die than harm all of you!”
Lin Qiye: “…”
“It’s merely evil energy. Do you really think so low of me? I’ve even killed the Painted-skin Demon itself. Evil energy is nothing. I’ll help you deal with it.”
Zhu Yuheng raised her face and looked at Lin Qiye pitifully. The tears on her face were sparkling, making her look like a little cat. It made men feel protective.
“Really? Will I really not harm you?”
“No. I am a God. To be precise, I have surpassed a God.”
Lin Qiye’s tone was indifferent.
“I… If I am a Jinx, if I want to harm someone, please kill me immediately, okay?” Zhu Yuheng pleaded.
The sadness in her eyes made people feel pity.
Lin Qiye was moved.
“Don’t be silly. You must work hard to become an Empress that shines through the sun and moon. You have to rule and save the world. Do you understand?”
Zhu Yuheng was stunned. The sentence seemed to have struck her soul.
For a moment, her body flowed with electricity. She did not know what to say, but she felt that deep in her heart, there was a small flame ignited.
It was as if some power hidden in her soul had awoken.
Seeing Zhu Yuheng in a daze, Lin Qiye emphasized once more.
“Do you understand?”
“I… I understand. Can I really become the Empress who will shine through the sun and moon?”
“Yes!”
Seeing Lin Qiye so confident in her, Zhu Yuheng’s eyes became bright and sparkling. Her phoenix-like eyes, which were the most beautiful, were sparkling at this moment, adding to the brilliance.
“If that’s the case, can I protect you and your family?”
“Yes!”
“Then I want to become the Empress who shines through the sun and moon!”
Zhu Yuheng’s face suddenly emitted a unique light.
Seeing this, Lin Qiye nodded slightly but felt something was wrong.
Why did it feel a little familiar?
While he was thinking, Zhu Yuheng’s face, which was full of energy, suddenly fell.
“But… What should I do about the evil energy in my soul? I… I don’t know what to do.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll think of a way. Let me check your body first.”
“How?” Zhu Yuheng said weakly.
“Take off your clothes…”
“What?” Zhu Yuheng widened her eyes, and her cheeks burned.
“Yes, take them all off and face me.”
“Ah?” Zhu Yuheng felt even more ashamed.
But when she saw Lin Qiye’s righteous face, she knew that the evil energy in her soul was a great threat. Lin Qiye was not taking advantage of her.
After a while, Lin Qiye shook his head.
“What’s going on? My lightning has searched all the meridians and internal organs. It should have found the evil energy.
“The evil energy is hidden a little deep.”
Lin Qiye frowned.
“Is… Is it difficult?”
Lin Qiye frowned and thought. He didn’t realize that Zhu Yuheng’s body was burning red.
“I’ll try using my Holy Violet Genuine Qi…”
Lin Qiye changed his trump card and continued to try.
Wisps of Holy Violet Genuine Qi flowed from Lin Qiye’s fingertips into Zhu Yuheng’s taut body.
An unknown object, almost boiling, was injected into Zhu Yuheng’s body.
Her body heated up as if she had entered a steamer.
Fine and dense, crystal clear sweat dripped from her body.
It was late at night, and only a man and a woman were in the room. The two of them were only a meter apart. Zhu Yuheng’s breathing was intermittent as if she was restraining something.
Lin Qiye focused on looking for evil energy.
However, his Holy Violet Genuine Qi scanned the area but still found nothing.
The evil energy did not seem to exist.
Lin Qiye frowned even more. “I’ll try using Immortal Qi again!”
He could not take it anymore!
Evil Energy? He must find it tonight!
Lin Qiye began to use Immortal Qi. He only had one wisp, thus the search was slow, and it also exhausted his mental energy.
Under a high concentration of mental energy, Lin Qiye’s forehead was covered with beads of sweat.
An hour later, helet out a breath of turbid air.
“Even Immortal Qi couldn’t detect it? That’s so ridiculous. Is this the Immortal-level Painted-skin Demon’s Dimension Upgrade Plan?
“That’s quite something!”
Lin Qiye wiped the sweat off his forehead.
“You… Are you alright? I can see that you’re exhausted. I’m the one who dragged you down…”
Zhu Yuheng’s face filled with guilt.
Lin Qiye waved his hand. “I’m fine. I’ll come back tomorrow.”
After saying that, Lin Qiye’s lightning flashed, and he returned to his room before falling asleep.
Meanwhile, in Zhu Yuheng’s room, shehad been nourished for the entire night.
Not only did she not feel the fatigue, but she was brimming with energy.
She even looked forward to Lin Qiye’s return the next night.
