The Path To True Immortality

" Ah...Alright...." Tian Lan nodded reluctantly but still felt that she shouldn't give up so easily, " Then tell me where did you buy them, I'll ask my people to buy them for me later."

The fruits slightly golden in color with the size of small finger-sized beads looked especially exquisite and pretty.,

Tian Lan held one between her fingertips and looked at it curiously.

She had really never seen such fruit in her life, be it in this Purple Cloud continent or her native land.

Wei Mo perked up his ears as well. A babbler mouth like him had been keeping his silence all this while completely entranced by the fruits the moment he had eaten.

Looking at their eager eyes Jiang Ying Yue gave them a deep sympathetic look, sighed,

' ....Really sometimes ignorance is bliss!'

These two, who had never come across the foodie world could only make such a fuss over these ordinary things like peanuts.

Unlike her, who had been yearning so much for all those delicious goodies that every night she had been dreaming of them.

Ah.....it was too torturing!

No, no, she must work hard and earn more spirit stones, otherwise, if she kept eating this blend porridge she was afraid that her taste buds would soon take the path of retrogressive evolution and disappear forever only leaving behind a historical momento like human tailbone.

Jiang Ying Yue subconsciously shuddered.

What was the point of living then, she might as well die?!

No, no, she must hurry up and speed up her plan!

Being stared at by two burning eyes Jiang Ying Yue put away her thoughts, regaining her focus, and responded to their questions, " No, you can't buy them in the market. I grew them myself. If you guys like it, I'll give you more later, but now you shouldn't eat more, it would be soon time for lunch."

Hearing that she would give them more later the two dispirited souls lit up, feeling better.

Jiang Ying Yue found them amusing and didn't know what to say.

" Okay, now tell me why did you build such a small house, and that too in the far corner of the residence. Do you lack manpower? Why don't just say so? I'll immediately arrange for more!" Now that she had gotten what she wanted Tian Lan started asking other questions, " Yueyue, don't be polite with me, you have helped us a lot. If it weren't for you my cousin and others would probably have died under beast riot. So, please don't hesitate if you need something, just tell me directly. I treat you as my younger sister."

Her words were sincere, she really wanted to help.

If Jiang Ying Yue asked her, she wouldn't even hesitate to mobilize all the mercenaries under the Cloud Trading Pavillion to help her build her mansion.

Jiang Ying Yue also felt her sincere intention and felt a bit warm but she had her plans. So she refused with a smile, " Thank you, Sister Lanlan but you don't have to trouble yourself. I really don't need them, not for now. As for the house being too small, it's just a secluded courtyard, not the main residence. It's going to be winter soon, it is impossible to keep living in those tents. So I asked them to build that small courtyard first to live in temporarily. Besides, you know the situation we're in. Some matters need to be settled first only then can we live in peace."

There were also other reasons such as she hadn't found the materials to make cement, and she had also been looking for the woods suitable for building the foundation and furniture in the new home. Many things were not up to her satisfaction. So, the construction could only be temporarily delayed.

After settling the things here she decided to go out and take a look. Anyway, she had such a huge space with her which was undoubtedly very convenient for transportation. So, she had nothing to worry about.

But, she did say all these to Tian Lan because she hated too much explaining. Anyway, when the time comes, everyone would see. So, there was no need to explain for now.

" Ah, how can I forget that?!" Tian Lan patted her forehead and said, " Alright, I understand you have your plans, but if you need anything don't be shy just tell me."

"..."

Shy?....

Jiang Ying Yue felt her mouth twitch, when had she ever been shy?

It seemed like there was a great misunderstanding.

It wasn't Jiang Ying Yue alone who had this thought, Wei Mo also felt Tian Lan might have some problem with her eyes.

Where was this shy person?!

This was simply an unscrupulous she-devil!

Wei Mo couldn't help but worry for his master, whenever he thought of this woman's crafty means.

In the end, Jiang Ying Yue smiled and nodded again and again when the atmosphere suddenly strange.

What was strange?

Obviously, the humming background music had hit the pause.

The three people who were busy eating and talking suddenly realized that they weren't the only ones there. They had other companions as well.

The torture had finally ended.

Yu Hai and others lay in the tubs limply. The torture akin to the tearing of bones and meridians had exhausted them to the point they couldn't even move a finger.

But...it had finally ended!

Those guys were sighing in relief when they suddenly sensed something was wrong and their expressions suddenly changed.

This...this...why did they unable to summon any spiritual energy?....

What's wrong? What happened?...

They checked again and again only to realize that their dantians and meridians were completely devoid of any trace of spiritual energy.

Their faces turned paler further.

They found it hard to believe the fact that...now they were all trash.

" What? Are you shocked? Do you blame me? Do you resent me?" Jiang Ying Yue saw their changing expression and with a languid smile walked up to them.

Yu Hai's eyes were slightly red but he lowered his eyes to cover up his emotions and others did the same.

" Never!"

However, the bobbing throats showed their suppressed emotions.

It was General Jiang who rescued them from misery and made them what they were now. How dare they resent his daughter?!

They weren't ungrateful.

Although they were very disappointed, they would never blame or hate their master. Because their lives were meant to be dedicated to their master. Whether they died or lived it was all up to their master's wishes.

Seeing their attitude Jiang Ying Yue retracted her smile and sighed softly, human life was too cheap here!

But she didn't want them to dedicate themselves to her or listen to her just because of her father.

What she wanted was....establish her own prestige and gain deep-rooted admiration using her own means.

Since they were her people obviously she would want them to obey only her orders and not even her father's. In this case, Jiang Ying Yue was very possessive.

What belonged to her only belong to her not even to her family. She was willing to share other things except for the forces under her. Because she knew how unpredictable human hearts were. Her trusted aides must only be loyal to her and obey her commands indefinitely and unconditionally. There was no otherwise.

That was why she had decided to train them separately. Yue Mei army belonged not only to her but also to Jiang Ying Mei. It was their father's love and protection for both of them, so obviously it wasn't right for her to command all of them.

But since Jiang Ying Mei was still young she would train them for her and pass them here when she came of age.

The Yue Mei army would still remain the Yue Mei army, it's just that it would have two divisions.

Don't talk about love between brothers and sisters, sharing all the things siblings had. It was total bullshit.

Humans were selfish creatures, to begin with, how could they bear to share all his hard-earn gains with others?

So, Jiang Ying Yue decided it was better to lay a boundary from now and avoid future hassle. She didn't want things to get sour between them because of conflicting personal interests in the future.

They would still remain close sisters, they would love and care for each other. It's just all this will be done while maintaining their individual interests and lives.

It had to be said that although Jiang Ying Yue had no experience raising a sister, she had a good grasp of human nature. So, she was already starting to prepare for the future.

" Hmm....alright, I believe you." Jiang Ying Yue nodded with a smile and continued to ask, " But, do you all believe me?"

" Huh?" Caught off guard by her sudden question Yu Hai looked up dumbly.

Jiang Ying Yue's eyes glowed with indescribable confidence yet her posture was languid with her arms folded above her chest as she shifted position and said, " Did you forget what I said earlier? I said that if you wanted to grow stronger to must never give up, you must hold on. Remember now?"

Yu Hai and others remembered but they were completely confused. They were already good-for-nothings, how could they grow stronger?

Obviously, they didn't know to gain something bigger they had to let go of insignificant things in their hands.

After this medicinal bath they had been reborn, revealing their innermost potential to take on the path of true immortality.
