People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

She suppressed the urge to stay, afraid of regretting it, and even more afraid of losing it.

"Your joy is my joy, your sorrow is my sorrow... Consort Yan feels ashamed..."

Yan Fei murmured softly, turned around silently, and left the courtyard step by step.

Cao Ze watched Yan Fei's retreating figure and shook his head slightly.

Life is full of unexpected events.

While he was still worried about not being able to stand the exploitative life that Yanfei and Jingni were taking advantage of, Yanfei had already chosen to leave.

Jingni stood behind Cao Ze, her beautiful eyes fixed on Cao Ze's profile.

"If you tell her to stay, she won't leave, so why let her go?"

Cao Ze turned around and hugged Jing Ni, whispering in her ear, "Keeping a person is nothing, but to keep a person's heart, you can't bind her. Forcing things isn't beautiful."

Jing Ni let Cao Ze hold her, her arm holding the sword stiffened for a moment, then she slowly hugged Cao Ze and took the initiative to kiss him.

After a long while.

While the two were passionately kissing, Li Wuyan Lingji, the Black and White Sisters, Zhuanhun Miepo, and even Ehuang arrived.

The seven women watched the couple kissing in the courtyard, their expressions varied.

Yan Lingji and Li Wu were making a carefree bet on how long Cao Ze and Jing Ni would kiss.

The Black and White Sisters had already seen the letter left by Yan Fei, and they looked at Cao Ze with inscrutable expressions.

They never expected that after spending a night with Cao Ze, Lord Dongjun would leave today.

Zhuanhun Miepo's expression was cold, but there was a hint of confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.

What's so great about kissing like that? Doesn't it feel stifling?

As maids and sword slaves sent by Zhao Ji to serve Cao Ze, they simply couldn't understand why Jing Ni, who was also an assassin, was kissing Cao Ze so passionately.

As for Ehuang.

She frowned, and fragments of memories inexplicably surfaced in her mind.

She clenched her teeth tightly, as if enduring some unbearable pain.

"what……"

Ehuang suddenly clutched her head and squatted down, her breathing becoming extremely rapid.

Cao Ze and Jing Ni seemed to wake up from a dream and stopped, both looking at Ehuang who was squatting on the ground and curled up.

"What...what happened?"

Jingni looked at Ehuang with some confusion.

Cao Ze walked step by step to Ehuang, squatted down, and gently patted her back.

"Are you okay?"

"Don't touch me!"

Like a startled rabbit, Ehuang suddenly jumped to the side, looking at Cao Ze with a mixture of fear and sorrow.

This unexpected turn of events surprised everyone present.

This is completely different from the usual Ehuang or Nüying.

Looking at Ehuang's appearance, Cao Ze tried to keep his voice calm.

"Ehuang, don't be afraid. Don't you recognize me? I am Cao Ze..."

Ehuang covered her head, her once neatly styled hair now disheveled and draped over her shoulders, making her look like a madwoman.

"Cao Ze, who is Cao Ze...who am I...I am Ehuang...I am Nüying...elder sister...younger sister...who am I..."

A multitude of chaotic fragments of memory filled Ehuang's mind, causing her immense pain.

Who exactly is she?!

Cao Ze raised his hands in a gesture, indicating to the women not to approach Ehuang.

At this moment, he could clearly feel a rich and powerful spiritual energy emanating from Ehuang's body.

Cao Ze was not surprised that it possessed at least the divine soul power of a Grandmaster at its peak, or even reached the level of a Great Grandmaster.

Ehuang... no, this Lady Xiang is definitely not simple. She may not be what I assumed, that she is just a mentally ill person with a split personality.

Cao Ze frowned slightly. Was it Mercury retrograde today?

No, it should be said that there are too few normal people in the Yin-Yang School.

If the Black and White Sisters hadn't been healed and disciplined by themselves, they would probably have become increasingly perverted.

He suddenly felt that he needed to reconsider whether to recruit, or rather how to recruit, all the disciples of the Yin-Yang School as his initial core group.

Normal people from the Yin-Yang School are a rare species.

The more Cao Ze thought about it, the more he felt he needed to go and investigate the Yin-Yang School tonight.

Don't end up with nothing to eat but mutton and steamed buns, and all you get is the smell of mutton.

"what!!!"

Ehuang seemed unable to bear it any longer and looked up to the sky, wailing in despair.

In that instant, a powerful surge of divine soul energy spread out like a shockwave.

Even with his divine soul, which was no weaker than that of a grandmaster, Cao Ze still felt a heavy weight pressing on his chest, as if a huge rock was pressing down on him.

Cao Ze saw that Ehuang seemed to be going crazy.

A thought struck him, and he began to recite the "Taishang Laojun Changshuo Qingjing Jing" (The Classic of Purity and Tranquility Spoken by the Supreme Lord Lao).

"A person's spirit desires tranquility, but their mind is disturbed; a person's heart desires stillness, but desires pull them away..."

The "Qingjing Jing" containing divine power seemed to have an effect. Ehuang, who was about to go mad, seemed to have been choked by Cao Ze, and became extremely silent.

Cao Ze chanted the "Qingjing Jing" with even greater force.

Ehuang stared blankly at Cao Ze, like a lifeless walking corpse.

But his whole body exuded an extremely dangerous aura.

Cao Ze felt a little nervous; this was the first time he had ever seen something so bizarre.

Jing Ni has already drawn her sword, pointing it at Ehuang.

She didn't care who Ehuang was or what happened to her; as long as she threatened Cao Ze, she would kill her.

Cao Ze said, "Don't make a move yet."

It's very likely that Ehuang experienced some kind of stimulation when she was kissing Jingni just now.

He didn't want to harm the young woman unless absolutely necessary.

After all, he had no grudge against Ehuang. Ehuang was just a little dim-witted and a bit too honest. It was not a scene he wanted to see her kill so easily.

Cao Ze chanted incantations as he slowly approached Ehuang.

Although Ehuang's spiritual power was so strong as to be unreasonable, it posed no threat to him without the use of secret techniques.

"Ehuang, Ehuang..."

Seeing that Ehuang was numb and dazed, Cao Ze stopped chanting the incantation and called out softly.

Ehuang seemed to have come to her senses, her watery eyes filled with confusion.

The next moment, Ehuang's eyes glazed over, and she collapsed softly to the ground.

Cao Ze reacted quickly, catching Ehuang around the waist as she was about to fall.

To his surprise, Ehuang's body was extremely cold, like a corpse.

Cao Ze touched Ehuang's hand, which was as cold as ice, and was completely baffled.

How can someone survive like this?

That's incredible.

Cao Ze slowly extended his divine sense to examine Ehuang.

Preliminary assessment suggests that Ehuang fainted because the sudden surge of spiritual energy earlier depleted her spiritual power.

Seeing that Ehuang was breathing steadily and seemed to be alright, he waved to the Black and White Sisters.

"Take her back to her room to rest first, and call me when she wakes up."

There's a secret about Ehuang; we need to be careful.

Chapter 462 Big Breasts, No Brains

Night fell, the bright moon hung high, and the city of Xianyang was quiet.

Cao Ze and Jing Ni, dressed in night clothes, moved through the streets and alleys, dodging wave after wave of patrolling city guards.

"I think we can form a group now, which will make it easier for us to make our way in the world in the future."

Cao Ze, lying on the main hall of the Yin-Yang School, joked, "What do you think of the Male and Female Twin Fiends?"

Jingni didn't know what Cao Ze was talking about, but she still said, "Okay."

Just as Cao Ze was about to say something, he saw the Grand Master of Fate walk out of the main hall and stand in the square with a cold and aloof expression.

Before long, a dozen or so disciples dressed in Yin-Yang School uniforms, both men and women, came from all directions.

Cao Ze's curiosity was piqued, and he and Jing Ni lay down on the bricks and tiles to look over.

The Grand Master of Fate still looked aloof and beautiful, but her former arrogance had diminished considerably.

She placed one hand on her slender waist and glanced at the twelve disciples who had gathered there—six men and six women, all elite disciples from their respective departments.

The reason why Da Siming did not leave during the day was to avoid attracting Cao Ze's attention and causing any accidents.

"I've already told you what I needed to say. From now on, before we reach our destination, no one is allowed to ask anything they shouldn't ask. Do you understand?"

"clear."
