The mistress has no feelings, why do you provoke her?

Mei was about to strike when Gu Jinyan burst into a piercing sob, repeatedly saying, "No, no, no..."

He waved his little fists as if to protect his mother, his little face turning red with anger.

Mei paused in her actions, tilting her head in thought: "That's right, the child is still young and needs to be breastfed, so we can't kill his mother yet. We should wait until the child is older."

He was capricious; one second he was about to kill someone, the next he was giving Song Wenjun a gentle smile: "I want to take your son as my disciple. I'll protect your life until your son grows up."

Song Wenjun looked at him as if he were a monster.

"What a nuisance." Mei snatched Gu Jinyan away, pressed him to the ground, kowtowed, and then threw the child to Song Wenjun with a smug look on her face: "From now on, I am his master, and no one can take his life without my permission."

He frowned at Song Wenjun, then added, "Including you."

What a hassle! Protecting his apprentice is enough, but he also has to protect his mother.

"Little one, grow up quickly." Mei was very satisfied with Gu Jinyan, and even her tone of voice became gentle.

Gu Jinyan, however, did not appreciate his kindness and protested by waving his fist: "No, no."

Mei was surprisingly patient: "Naughty."

Just then, a dozen men in black suddenly appeared around them.

They saw Mei Quan running towards him: "Guardian, this woman cannot be allowed to live, she..."

Before she could even say that she was in cahoots with Xiao Ji, Mei snapped his neck.

"Enough with the nonsense. Who would dare kill the person I'm protecting?"

The remaining black-clad assassins were dumbfounded. They knew that Mei was unpredictable and would kill at the slightest provocation.

But they've never encountered a situation like this before.

The person he wanted to kill has become the person he wants to protect. How can he explain this to the Pavilion Master?

"My lord, the sect leader instructed us to kill this woman."

Mei's figure moved like a ghost, so fast that it was difficult to catch.

In the blink of an eye, he snapped the necks of all the black-clad assassins.

"Who dares disobey my orders?"

The assassins were caught off guard by the Enchantress's attack and died before they could even understand what was happening.

"Fourth Protector, what are you doing?" The only seriously injured assassin asked, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Mei admired her own fingers, her voice dreamlike: "Nonsense."

With a wave of his hand and a palm strike, the black-clad assassin was sent to meet his maker.

"Do I need a reason to kill someone?"

Just then, a sword aura approached her. Mei's expression turned serious, and she quickly made a move to deal with it, exchanging a palm strike with the person who came.

With a loud bang, the air exploded, and both of them took a few steps back.

Mei felt a surge of blood rushing to her chest. Her eyes flashed with murderous intent as she looked at the newcomer and angrily said, "Xiao Ji, you actually launched a sneak attack?"

Xiao Ji calmly stepped in front of Song Wenjun, smiling at Mei: "Why not?"

His arrival gave Song Wenjun a strange sense of security.

Mei glanced at Xiao Ji, then at Yan Yan, and her eyes suddenly widened.

These two look so alike.

He had felt a sense of familiarity just moments before, and now he understood completely.

No wonder Xiao Ji wanted to protect the mother and child in front of him; she was actually Xiao Ji's woman and child.

Mei's face revealed an indescribable expression. In other words, he had actually taken his mortal enemy's child as his disciple?

Upon realizing the outcome, Mei let out a roar: "How could this be? I've roamed the world for decades, and yet I've capsized in a ditch! Ah..."

He clutched his head and screamed, looking extremely pained.

When the three guardians of Blood Night arrived, they saw Mei standing on the bridge, clutching her head and screaming like a ghost.

"Fourth brother, what's wrong? Did Xiao Ji seriously injure you?"

"Don't be afraid, the three of us brothers will avenge you."

As the three guardians spoke, they drew their swords and charged at Xiao Ji.

The next second, Mei stopped them, saying with a pained expression, "You mustn't hurt him."

The three protectors were all stunned: "Fourth brother, have you lost your mind from being beaten? He is Xiao Ji, the person the sect leader wants to kill. Wake up!"

"Xiao Ji, what did you do to my fourth son?" the Second Protector asked gruffly.

Xiao Ji was also a little confused at this moment, but he understood one thing: the demon was protecting Song Wenjun and the child.

That would be so interesting.

He held the sword to his chest, a slight smile playing on his lips as he lifted his chin toward Mei: "Ask him."

The third protector paced anxiously, clutching his chest and weakly saying, "Fourth brother, say something!"

"I, I..." Mei had never been so dejected. She pointed at Yan Yan and said listlessly, "I took that child as my disciple. I once swore that if I ever encountered someone with a natural sword bone, I would definitely take him as my disciple, protect him as he grows up, and teach him."

"What, a natural sword bone?"

"Take him as your apprentice?"

"You really accepted it?"

The three protectors all screamed, their eyes filled with despair: "Why did you have to take in the child of your mortal enemy? What will the sect leader think of this?"

Once someone is accepted as a disciple, they will be his master for life and will protect him as he grows up.

What made the three protectors even more desperate was that the Pavilion Master had no intention of managing Blood Night at all, and was only interested in revenge.

He had already reserved Blood Night's position for Enchantress.

Wouldn't this give Xiao Ji's child a huge advantage?

All four of them were devastated, embracing each other and weeping bitterly.

Song Wenjun, standing behind Xiao Ji, turned pale upon hearing this. They actually said that Yan Yan was Xiao Ji's child?

This, what is going on?

"I don't care, I'm going to take him as my disciple. He's already kowtowed to me, so I'm his master. From now on, none of you are allowed to harm my disciple." Mei seemed to have made up her mind to protect Yan Yan.

The other three all wore bitter expressions: "How are we going to explain this to the Pavilion Master?"

Mei took out a jade token from her waist and threw it into the hands of the Great Protector: "From today onwards, I am leaving Blood Night."

"No, I disagree!" the Third Protector shouted. "If you're willing to disregard brotherhood for a mere infant, then I'll kill him."

As they spoke, the three guardians took flight and rushed toward Song Wenjun.

Xiao Ji remained motionless. The next second, Mei pulled the three protectors down and stood in front of Xiao Ji and Song Wenjun, her face showing displeasure: "I said that no one is allowed to hurt them, otherwise they will be my enemies."

"This is insane, absolutely insane!" The Great Protector said with a look of regret and rage: "We failed to complete the mission today and lost a protector. If word gets out in the martial world, we'll be laughed out of the world. I, Blood Night, have never failed before."

The demon gazed at her own reflection with self-pity and murmured, "Brothers, forget about me."

The second brother let out a heavy sigh, his large hands almost tearing the bald head apart.

The third brother felt a severe tightness and pain in his chest, and blood started flowing again.

What is this thing called?

"Fourth brother, can you wake up? Do you think people want you?"

He became the mentor of his mortal enemy's child without even asking if the child agreed.

What if Xiao Ji doesn't want it and stabs him to death with a sword?

Mei looked at Xiao Ji with a seductive gaze: "You rascal, do you want me?"
