The improved female villains regained their memories.

To her, her master is her light, her bright moon, and her gentle breeze.

She was willing to give everything for her master.

-------------

Ye Buxin's actions were somewhat inexplicable.

She tried to conceal her activities, but not much. She would visit one town today and another tomorrow, her routes winding and irregular, and she rarely saw anyone.

Wang Jingxing followed her for so long, but found nothing.

She looked at the map and studied Ye Buxin's route, discovering that apart from generally heading south, there was basically no other pattern to it.

Ye Buxin was in good spirits and seemed to be playing around, which made Wang Jingxing feel less energetic.

She tried her best to keep the monitoring device within a controllable range so that the other party wouldn't discover it.

Ye Buxin has not moved for the past few days and has been staying in this town, which finally gave Wang Jingxing a chance to rest.

The large-scale war between the Baiyue and Qin armies has basically ended. Now both sides are probing each other on a small scale, so the further south you go, the more chaotic the towns and villages become.

Where they live now, if they continue walking for a while, they will reach the border between the Qin state and the Baiyue region.

Wang Jingxing lay on the bed with the monitoring artifact beside him. There was no movement, but there were some sounds outside, like refugees from the south.

The Qin state used the prefecture-county system, and the local officials were all parachuted in. After consulting with the wealthy households in the area, they decided to send these people to other towns.

Her old habit flared up again; she wanted to meddle in other people's business, but remembering her master's instructions, she forced herself to hold back.

Tonight is a sleepless night; it's so noisy outside that she can't sleep.

All she could think about were the words her senior brothers and sisters had said to her when she was in the Mo family.

"Jingxing, what do you think a chivalrous person is?"

-------------

"A knight-errant is someone who uses force, and force is someone who stops war."

The Mo family senior sister held Wang Jingxing's hand as they stood on the earthen slope.

Everywhere you look is a world of red. The setting sun is like blood. The land of Yan has been mercilessly torn apart by war. The once bustling towns and peaceful villages are now nothing but ruins. The once fertile fields are stained crimson with blood, like a living hell.

The corpses of Qin and Yan soldiers piled up like mountains, with broken magical artifacts scattered haphazardly among them. Some soldiers were still standing there, but were already lifeless; others had been torn to pieces by deadly attacks, their complete bodies unrecognizable, only mixed with the fragments of their comrades, making the blood-soaked earth even redder.

Under the power of the immortals, mountains and rivers were shattered, and even the sky was dark and gloomy, as if it would collapse soon.

Wang Jingxing's eyes reddened, and his voice was hoarse as he said, "Zhi Ge, Zhi Ge, Senior Sister, is this what we fought for?"

Judging from the results alone, it seems they accomplished nothing.

After the Qin army destroyed the State of Chu, it decided to completely eliminate the remaining forces of the State of Yan in Liaodong. No matter how the King of Yan begged for surrender, the State of Qin refused.

The commander was Wang Ben of the Wang family. In order to win the battle quickly, he did not hesitate to use powerful and destructive magical methods. Wherever he went, Liaodong was reduced to scorched earth.

Unifying the world was imminent, and no one cared about the voices hidden in the shadows.

Wang Jingxing roared in frustration, "If chivalry is about fighting to stop war, then why didn't we, the Mohists, stop all of this?"

The Mo family senior sister remained silent.

There were many reasons: Qin was stronger, the Mohists were disaffected, and Yan was unable to mount an effective defense...

It's virtually impossible for the Mohists to stop this battle; they are an organization, and organizations are no match for nations.

The senior sister from the Mo family patted her shoulder gently: "Jingxing, the concept of chivalry in the hearts of the Mo family is different. You may not agree with the idea of ​​stopping war. That's okay. You can go find your own chivalry."

"So, Jingxing, what do you think is the essence of chivalry?"

...She didn't know.

She was sent to infiltrate the Mo family on her master's orders. She would just stare blankly at the Mo family's gatherings. How could she know what chivalry was?

She was sometimes filled with righteous indignation, but she didn't know why she was indignant.

Like Nangong Qingyang's sorrow and Yang Pingsheng's fear, her anger came from nowhere and had no reason.

She simply stared at the blood-red earth, filled with inexplicable rage.

-------------

Ye Buxin stayed in this town for more than ten days.

Wang Jingxing was afraid of being exposed, so he dared not monitor the inside of her room, but could only monitor the area around it.

She stayed indoors for ten whole days, and she almost thought Ye Buxin had died inside.

Fortunately, on the fifteenth day, Ye Buxin went out. She wandered around the town for a while, then returned to her room to pack up before leaving.

Wang Jingxing didn't dare to delay and quickly followed.

This time, Ye Buxin didn't linger. She seemed to have had enough of wandering aimlessly before and went straight to her destination.

Mountains, poisonous miasma, mosquitoes, swamps... Wang Jingxing quickly understood Ye Buxin's destination: the Baiyue region, where war was raging.

That year, she also came here for her master. If Yang Pingsheng hadn't saved her, she would have almost died here.

What is Ye Buxin doing in a place like this?

It is currently a time of truce between the Baiyue and Qin armies. Both sides are using the mountains as a boundary and are on guard against each other. Apart from small-scale harassment, no major conflicts have broken out for the time being.

Ye Buxin easily bypassed the Qin army and headed deep into the Baiyue region.

Wang Jingxing dared not delay and quickly followed.

She couldn't help but feel nervous, as if she was about to learn something big.

She watched as Ye Buxin familiarly walked into those tunnels, familiarly greeted those witch gods, and familiarly walked to the place that had angered her back then.

She watched this scene unfold.

Her long-dormant anger surged once more.

-------------

That year, in order to obtain the power to conquer Baiyue from the Qin Emperor with the help of Li Si, Nangong Qingyang sent Wang Jingxing deep into Baiyue to help her gather intelligence.

Wang Jingxing ventured deep into the Baiyue region, mingling among the servants just like Yang Pingsheng.

However, her route of infiltration differed from Yang Pingsheng's. She quickly used a magical artifact to shed her servant status and infiltrated deeper into the area.

Deep within that tunnel, she also saw a red world.

The complex array formations, the corpses scattered all over the ground, and the blood seeping into the surroundings, from the walls to the floor, everything was a heavy, dark red.

There were emaciated old men and strong young men, their bodies piled up there, all bearing the marks of being cut up, like pigs being slaughtered.

Many children were locked up in a corner, their innocent eyes filled with tears, their small bodies trembling.

She saw the despair in their eyes, saw blood and fire mingling together, and witnessed the most cruel scene of humanity unfold before her eyes.

That unknown rage surged again, filling my entire body.

Shouldn't she be angry?

If she isn't angry, how can she be called a human being?

-------------

Ye Buxin walked forward step by step.

The statue of Xiangliu is there. Because of the Qin army's attack, their territory kept shrinking, and eventually they all shrank to this place.

Ye Buxin stopped under the statue of Xiang Liu, looked up at it, and sneered a few times.

The sorcerer god beside him walked over: "My lord, shall we begin now?"

Ye Buxin didn't speak. She looked to the side—the newly captured people were all there, trembling and huddled together.

"Why aren't they Baiyue people anymore?"

The shaman replied helplessly, "The Qin army's offensive was too fierce. Most of the Baiyue tribes were either destroyed or recruited. The remaining tribes were not of pure blood, so we can only use Chu people to replace them."

Ye Buxin nodded and scanned the crowd.

Her eyes were quite cold, devoid of any emotion.

Finally, her gaze fell on a mother and child, and she said, "She's the one."

Ignoring the child's cries and the mother's struggles, the witch gods brought the woman before Ye Buxin. Ye Buxin remained unmoved, and green energy surged forth, pressing the woman to the ground.

"Come out, you've been following me all this way, aren't you tired?"

She said calmly, "If you don't come out, she will die. I will count to three. If she doesn't come out or try to contact someone else within three counts, then she will definitely die."

She held out her hand: "Three..."

Wang Jingxing stepped forward.

She stepped out of the shadows and stood in front of Ye Buxin.

“Ye Buxin.” She stared intently at Ye Buxin, who stood before the Xiangliu Clan statue. The detection artifacts around her revealed the connection between her and the statue: “What exactly are you?”

Ye Buxin gave a cold laugh.

"If you want to know, you can, I'll satisfy your curiosity."

"I am a person cursed by my bloodline."

The shadow behind her lengthened, gradually growing into nine heads.

-------------

Monsters possess supernatural powers, which originate from their bloodline and can only be used by monsters.

Legend has it that each of the ancient demons possessed the supernatural power to defy fate and change destiny.

Although Xiangliu was killed by Yu the Great, she left him with two troublesome problems before her death.

One reason is that its corpse merged with the earth's veins in the southern mountains, giving rise to poisonous miasma, swamps, insects, and beasts. Another reason is that it activated a life-saving supernatural power, tearing its soul apart and merging it into a branch of human blood.

That human bloodline later evolved and became the royal family of the Chu Kingdom.

The secret technique used by the Chu royal family was actually a weakened version of the Xiangliu Clan's divine power. Because their bloodline was infused with fragments of the Xiangliu Clan's soul, they were able to use that weakened version of the divine power.

The reason why some people cannot use it is simply because they do not have enough fragments of the Xiangliu clan's soul in their bloodline.

“I saw in the Chu royal family that if a human could gather the soul fragments of the Xiangliu clan in their bloodline and merge them with the southern earth veins, then they could become a true member of the Xiangliu clan.”
