Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

There were no prison cells in the young master's residence; those who were imprisoned were simply temporarily placed in a separate room.

However, to prevent any accidents, this room might be guarded by a first-class official.

When Ying Jing saw Lady Xiang again, she was pale and had two wounds on her body.

The bleeding had stopped, but bloodstains were still visible on the clothes.

That was left behind from her brief encounter with Jing Ni and Zhengang in the courtyard last night.

In fact, the fact that someone dared to force their way into the young master's residence was only captured rather than killed on the spot is already a very good outcome.

With eight individuals ranked first among the Heavenly Ones, this force is not to be underestimated by any martial arts organization, even without considering the military.

"I didn't notice Lady Xiang's injuries last night. I wonder if they've healed any better now."

Ying Jing remained calm, sitting alone at the round table in the room, one hand behind his back, the other lightly tapping the table as if unconsciously.

Jingni and the others acted with great restraint, knowing that this woman had interacted with Changxin Jun during the day. Therefore, although her wounds looked terrible, the injuries were not very serious.

These were all superficial injuries, and none of them damaged the bones or internal organs.

At least Nvying didn't seem to be greatly affected. She stood up and bowed, her face pale, her skin as white as snowflakes falling outside the window.

Although Ehuang was responsible for what happened last night, Nüying also has the memory of it, but she cannot control her body.

They were well aware of what that kind woman had done with their shared body last night, and what heinous crime she had committed!

But... the first thing Lord Changxin did when he saw her was to ask about her injuries?

This touched Nüying deeply.

Ultimately, she hadn't experienced much; she spent most of her time cultivating within the Yin-Yang School and Xiaoxiang Valley.

She disliked Shunjun's purely utilitarian approach to cultivation, and she felt helpless against Donghuang Taiyi's forceful orders.

But Changxin-jun's seemingly insignificant concern touched him deeply.

While the Yin-Yang School's many techniques are indeed powerful, they can also lead to fanaticism.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Changxin. Nüying is out of danger."

Ying Jing did not notice the subtle change in Nü Ying, but only frowned and looked at her.

"One body, two souls, you are quite peculiar. Now you're Nüying again? Under what circumstances will your sister appear?"

Ying Jing was quite interested in investigating such an outrageous and bizarre matter.

"It seems that Lord Changxin has understood my situation. I am Nüying, and I usually appear during the day, while my elder sister Ehuang only controls her body at night most of the time."

Nu Ying slowly spoke, revealing the truth.

In the beginning, the Yin-Yang School only had one Lady Xiang, namely Ehuang.

Ehuang was not suited to cultivate the "Supreme Goodness is Like Water" mental cultivation method; she had always cultivated the "White Dew Deceives Frost" method.

According to the rules of the Yin-Yang School throughout the ages, Ehuang was destined to marry Shun Jun, following the guidance of fate, and together they would practice "the highest good is like water" and "heaven and earth".

For this reason, Ehuang forcibly modified "The highest good is like water." The conflict between "White dew deceives frost" and "The highest good is like water" resulted in the emergence of a new personality, Nüying, within Ehuang's body.

Ehuang and Nüying are two souls in one body, hence they are referred to as sisters.

Unlike Ehuang, Nüying experienced almost no bottlenecks in cultivating "the highest good is like water".

Therefore, whenever Nüying appeared, Shun Jun would be exceptionally attentive, while gradually becoming indifferent to Ehuang.

Ehuang was also very stubborn; she believed in destiny or ordinariness.

Donghuang Taiyi designated her as Lady Xiang, and thus recognized Shun, who was the Lord of Xiang, as her husband.

But her sister, or rather, another version of herself, wants to steal her husband away?

Therefore, the two personalities within one body also created a contradiction.

However, Nüying disliked the overly ambitious Shunjun and did not want to have a conflict with her sister.

So she would often imitate everything about Ehuang...

Therefore, Shun dared not approach the Lady of the Xiang River any further... because he did not know whether it was Ehuang or Nüying who appeared.

Ehuang's White Dew Deceives Frost, even getting close to it makes him feel like his power is about to regress.

So it is true that we should thank Lord Changxin's men for killing Lord Shun.

"Is this the real story? It's even more exciting than yesterday's."

It must be said that the martial arts of the Yin-Yang School are indeed unique...

Hmm... that's also quite strange.

Ying Jing truly admired the Yin-Yang School for being able to pass it down through generations.

What kind of bizarre and strange martial arts are these, and what kind of eccentric and eccentric people are they?

I've never heard of any martial arts school that can cause someone to develop schizophrenia!

Having lied yesterday and been exposed today, Nvying couldn't help but feel ashamed.

She lowered her head deeply, almost burying it in those two rounded mounds.

"I know I have committed a grave mistake by assassinating Lord Changxin. I am willing to accept any punishment, but I beg Lord Changxin to spare my sister!"

???

Ying Jing's expression was somewhat puzzling.

The expression on Nüying's face at this moment was incredibly sincere and heartfelt.

But... this woman really did ruin her brain from practicing martial arts.

Let's just say they've trained one person into two.

But your bodies are still one person.

How can you punish one of them separately while letting your sister off the hook?

Seeing Ying Jing's strange expression, Nü Ying's pale face also flushed red.

She was simply experiencing a split between two consciousnesses within her body; it wasn't some kind of mental illness. Naturally, she had already realized the problem with her earlier words.

"You saved Gan Luo and sent back the documents from Zhao. I have no ill will towards you, but your sister harbors deep hatred for me because of Xiang Jun."

Ying Jing tapped his fingers lightly on the round table, his expression indifferent.

Nu Ying hurriedly replied, "I will definitely keep my sister in check and won't let her cause any more trouble."

“If you could really control her, she wouldn’t have forced her way into the young master’s residence last night.”

Ying Jing shook his head: "I will not allow such a threat to remain..."

“Perhaps I can try to erase Ehuang’s consciousness and let you control this body alone.”

Ying Jing wasn't sure if he could do it, but he could try.

For a personality that emerges later, having complete control over the body might be an immense temptation.

But Nüying refused without hesitation.

"do not want!"

Nu Ying knelt down on the ground, her jade-like hands, as delicate as scallion roots, grabbing Ying Jing's hem.

"Nüying has a way to dispel her sister's malice towards Changxin-jun. Please, Changxin-jun, give us a chance."

Ying Jing became somewhat interested.

People from the Yin-Yang School are mostly stubborn and eccentric; once their beliefs are formed, they are almost impossible to change.

Therefore, upon realizing the deep hatred Ehuang harbored for him, Ying Jing truly intended to kill her.

Is there really a way for Nüying to help?
