Chapter 393 Raise a spiritual pet!

She talked to Shi Liyuan about the things she had analyzed, about a scholar that Old Madam Ye had fallen in love with when she was in Xiushan County, about the different treatments that the first and second wives of the big families had received in the past, and about General Ye's attitude towards his two sons.

Although he didn't say it in detail, it was concise and to the point, and Shi Liyuan understood it.

After understanding it, I could only sigh that I had not been concerned with worldly affairs for too long. I didn't expect that the lives of mortals were so bold. The old lady of a first-rank general's mansion actually concealed the truth and did such a big business.

Ye Wenyan asked him, "Can you help me analyze this? Did my grandfather know about this a long time ago? That's why he always treated my second uncle's family badly, didn't teach him martial arts well, and didn't arrange an official position for him. Although he was later given the title of General Ye Er, I think it would be better not to give him such an official position. Giving him such an official position would be no different from humiliation."

Shi Liyuan analyzed for a while and felt that he didn't understand: "I really can't see through the trivialities of mortals, and I can't figure it out. I just think what you said makes sense. As for evidence, if it doesn't work, I'll just search the spirit."

"Searching the soul will make people stupid." She didn't like this method. "If she is stupid, I won't feel satisfied even if I kill her. So this matter has to be investigated and evidence collected through normal channels. They have to die clearly and sincerely." She touched her nose again. "It is impossible for people without conscience to be sincerely convinced. They have to die with enough fear, despair, and pain. Only in this way can these sins be branded into their souls. There will be a next life after this life, and there will be many lives after the next life. They have to live with this pain in every life until their sins are redeemed and until those who died at their hands can forgive them."

When she said these words, Shi Liyuan felt the little girl on his back shivering. He tilted his head and asked her, "Are you cold?"

She shook her head. "It's not that I'm cold, it's just that I have an irrepressible hatred in my heart. It's my hatred, and it's also Miss Fourth Ye's hatred. Because she lost her loved ones and her life, I also lost my loved ones and my life. I've been thinking these days that even if the authorities develop a soul-shooting gun, it won't be easy for them to break into the Ye family mansion. The Ye family mansion has layers of defenses, all of which are formations and prohibitions, which were set up by our successive patriarchs. Even if they have a soul-shooting gun, they can't break through these defenses and directly break into my hall."

"You mean... there are spies?"

"Yeah." She nodded. "I didn't want to make such a guess before, because I thought that the Ye family should be united and should support our family. But the fact is that if there is no cooperation from inside and outside, those people holding the shooting spears can't even enter the door. In the final analysis, we still died at the hands of our own people, and I still can't figure out who this person is." Ye Wenyan gritted his teeth, "Or, even if I know who he is, I will never be able to avenge myself."

Miss Ye Si still had her to fulfill her last wish, but she herself could no longer interfere in the affairs of her past life.

"It's all in the past." He comforted her. "It's all in the past. Since there's no way to go back, we can only look forward. People always have to look forward. Just like I sometimes think, if I had noticed it before the spiritual energy of heaven and earth disappeared, maybe I could have found some clues and reasons. But in the end, I missed it, and there is no chance to do it again."

He lifted the little girl on his back again, but she was already lying on his shoulder weakly, murmuring, "It's midnight, it's so uncomfortable. You must have never experienced the feeling of having your spiritual power drained away all at once, it's really too uncomfortable."

He felt distressed, but he had no way to bear it for her. Being able to use flowers to stimulate the spirit was a skill that made Ye Wenyan different from other spiritual practitioners. It was a gift from heaven that allowed her to use spiritual power even when there was no spiritual energy in the world.

But while the gift is granted, it also comes in exchange for the loss of all spiritual power on the 15th of every month.

It turns out that the way of heaven will never suffer any loss, not even a little bit.

"Get some sleep!" A faint red glow appeared on his body, and Ye Wenyan felt a warmth enveloping his whole body. The physical discomfort caused by the loss of spiritual power suddenly felt much better.

If she didn't feel uncomfortable, she wouldn't be able to sleep, so she kept talking to Shi Liyuan. They kept talking about the same things. The more she talked, the worse she felt. The more she talked, the more she felt that everyone in the Ye family in her previous life was like a thief.

Shi Liyuan advised her: "Let's talk about something happy!"

She thought for a moment, "How can there be any happiness? The Ye family is a mess, the royal family is a mess, it's upsetting just thinking about it."

He then started a topic: "Have you ever thought about raising a spiritual pet?"

The little girl instantly perked up: "Spirit pet? How do you raise one? Do you have a spirit pet?"

He said, "I don't have one now, but I once had one, a water Qilin. That Qilin drank the water from the spiritual spring in my cave all day long, and it had grown to the twelfth level before the spiritual energy of heaven and earth disappeared. If it had one more level, it could have tried to survive the heavenly tribulation and transform. Unfortunately, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth disappeared, it eventually died. I tried many ways to save its life at that time, but none of them worked."

Ye Wenyan was stunned when he heard this. "Qilin? That's an ancient beast that only exists in legends. In the era I was in, Qilin could only be seen in books. I didn't expect you to have raised one. Was there such a thing as Qilin here at that time? How could an ancient beast survive until now?"

Shi Liyuan shook his head. "How could it possibly survive? All the ancient cultivators have died, how could a strange beast survive? The water unicorn only left a trace of its soul in a magic weapon. I got that magic weapon by chance and discovered its soul. I then sent the soul into the soul-nourishing magic weapon and raised it for a few years. Only then was it barely brought back to life. As for its body, I collected 749 kinds of rare materials and transformed it with magic. But if I don't tell you about this, no one will know its origins. That body is just like its real body, and no one can tell it." Ye Wenyan said. He sincerely admired: "You are really amazing. I can't do this kind of thing. Or rather, it's not that I can't do it, but I simply haven't learned the kind of magic formula that can help transform the physical body. In our time, it was impossible to collect so many kinds of materials. In our time, only the Ye family could still cultivate the spirit, so we had no fellow practitioners to communicate and exchange with, and no way to obtain and mine. We could only blindly consume the things left by our ancestors. Before I died, those resources had been almost consumed. Even if the authorities hadn't shot us, the Ye family wouldn't have been able to hold on for long."

She sighed again, "So everything is destined!"

"Let's talk about the spirit pet." He was troubled. Why was he unhappy again? "Ah Yan, although my spirit pet died in that catastrophe, and I couldn't raise another spirit pet because there was no spiritual energy between heaven and earth. But you are different. You use flowers as a guide and destroy flowers as a spirit, so if you want to raise a spirit pet, you can still do so."

She thought for a while and felt that she didn't quite agree. "Raising a pet is no problem, but the problem is where can I find a pet? There is no spiritual energy in the world anymore, and the pets I could find before must have died out long ago. I can't just grab a dog on the street to feed it, right? Although I can feed it with spiritual things, I still don't believe it can grow into a pet."

"It's dead, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's extinct." Shi Liyuan said, "I know that under the thousand-year-old ice layer in the Far North, there is a blue fox frozen. That blue fox had a certain level of cultivation hundreds of years ago, and was raised by a fellow apprentice of mine. After the spiritual power of heaven and earth disappeared, my apprentice risked his life to send it back to the Far North and threw it into the crack of the glacier. Over the past few hundred years, I have been paying attention to the place where the fox was buried, and I have also sent spiritual power into the crack of the glacier. Although the blue fox has fallen asleep, it can receive spiritual power, which means it is still alive. If you want to raise it, I can help you take the blue fox out."

Ye Wenyan was stunned when he heard this. "Fox, vixen? Master Liyuan, is this beast raised for me or for you?"

Shi Liyuan was also stunned, "What is a fox spirit?"

"It's a fox that has become a spirit." She explained to him, "After a fox becomes a spirit, it will turn into a bewitching beauty and specialize in seducing men like scholars. It will have sex with men, destroy their families, and suck their yang energy and eat their flesh and blood. In the end, it will torture the man until only a human skin is left, or he will become a dried child."

It was the first time that Shi Liyuan had heard such a story. He analyzed it very seriously and then shook his head repeatedly: "Heretical reasoning! I have lived for more than 400 years and have never seen a fox like that. Foxes are relatively cunning, but since we are raising spiritual animals, we naturally want to raise a smart one. We can't raise a clumsy and uncivilized animal."

"What if it seduces you?"

"…If I remember correctly, it should be a male fox."

"What if it seduces me?"

"…Then you should stop raising it."

"I'll support him, I'll support him!" Her interest has been aroused.

In her past and present lives, she had only heard of spirit pets in legends and in the records of the ancestors of the Ye family, but she had never had the opportunity to catch a spirit beast to raise. Now that she had such a good opportunity, she had to seize it tightly.

So she discussed with Master Li Yuan: "Why don't you go tomorrow? Don't worry, I will give you a lot of flowers to make up for the spiritual power you have wasted. Anyway, it's spring now, and wild flowers are everywhere. It's easy to set up a spirit gathering array. Good little master, go tomorrow and bring me the blue fox!"

He laughed, "You are impatient. If you want to go, go after midnight tomorrow night. On March 15th, I must keep watch over you."
