Looking at the young lady who was curled up on the bed and trembling, Xing Jue's heart was filled with sourness. Up until now, Xing Jue had already used all sorts of methods to try and communicate with the young lady because Xing Jue knew that the young lady's mental state was definitely normal. It was just that she couldn't tie a knot, and she had a sense of fear and vigilance towards Xing Jue.
But what made Xing Jue helpless was, not to mention communicating with him, from start to finish, the young lady never looked at Xing Jue. Instead, she kept on saying, "Don't hit me, don't hit me, I don't know anything."
"If it's said that they came here to force you to ask about the Li Residence, then what did they force you to do before?" Xing Jue's heart was filled with doubt. He really wanted to know what the young lady had experienced before.
"Lord Xing Jue."
Just as Xing Jue was thinking about the young lady's past, the tightly-closed Spirit Formation iron door was suddenly opened. Then, Lei Xing personally carried a plate of delicious food and a plate of exquisite snacks and placed them in front of Xing Jue.
"Thank you, Senior Lei Xing."
"It's getting late. All of you should go rest."
Looking at Lei Xing in front of him as well as the soldiers outside the Spirit Formation iron door, Xing Jue knew that Lei Xing and the others had never taken even half a step away. They were just waiting outside the door.
"Lord Xing Jue, could it be that you're going to sleep here tonight?" Lei Xing asked with a bit of astonishment.
"This girl, in her current state, doesn't allow anyone to touch her. So, I can only stay and accompany her."
"It's the same no matter where I sleep. In the past, when I was cultivating, it's not like I haven't slept in forests or caves." Xing Jue smiled and said.
"Then I'll take my leave."
Seeing that, Lei Xing and the others could only leave. But Xing Jue knew that they wouldn't really leave, and he also knew that no matter how he persuaded them, they wouldn't leave. So, Xing Jue just didn't try to persuade them anymore.
"Aren't you hungry?"
"Do you want to eat some? This is very delicious." Xing Jue picked up a beautiful and delicious dessert and waved it in front of the girl.
To Xing Jue's delight, although the young lady didn't come over, she cast her gaze on the dessert below Xing Jue. After sneaking a glance, she quickly shifted her gaze away. This showed that the young lady was indeed very interested in the dessert.
"Alright, you can eat whenever you feel hungry."
Seeing this, Xing Jue placed the plate of desserts in front of the young girl's bed. After he finished the plate of delicious food, he lied down in the corner of the cell and pretended to sleep.
That was because Xing Jue knew that the girl would want to eat those desserts, but she was afraid of Xing Jue, so she didn't dare to eat them. At this time, pretending to be asleep was the best way to make the girl let down her guard.
"Huhu ~ ~ ~"
Xing Jue's skill in pretending to be asleep was top-notch. It could be said that he had reached the acme of perfection, making it hard to tell whether he was lying or not. However, don't look at how his eyes were closed, as if he was really asleep. His soul power had filled the entire cell, allowing him to see through everything in this cell.
As expected, after Xing Jue snored for a moment, the young lady's body stopped trembling. After confirming that Xing Jue was really asleep, she quietly picked up a piece of dessert and carefully chewed it while staring at Xing Jue.
She ate very carefully, but she was also a big eater. The entire plate of desserts was finished by her. After finishing the desserts, perhaps it was because she saw that Xing Jue was really asleep and had no intention of hurting her, the young lady's guard was lowered and she actually fell asleep.
The next morning, when the young lady opened her eyes again, she was shocked to find that her body was covered with a thick blanket.
Moreover, the plate in front of the bed that was supposed to be empty was now filled with all kinds of desserts. Most importantly, in the cell that was supposed to be lifeless, there were many beautiful flowers and plants. The fragrance of the flowers filled the entire cell, causing the extremely timid young lady to feel much more relaxed.
She took another look at Xing Jue, who was lying in the corner with his back facing her, sleeping soundly. At this moment, there was a hint of gentleness in her blood-red eyes and a charming smile on her face.
She got off the bed. This time, she didn't tiptoe, although she was still cautious. However, this time, she was much more generous.
She moved her petite little nose to the gorgeous flowers and inhaled the fragrance at close range. Moreover, the smile on her face became even more radiant. It was obvious that a young lady's love for flowers was something that was natural.
However, just as the young lady was admiring the flowers on the ground, she suddenly realized that there was a mirror in between the two pots of flowers.
"Ah ~ ~"
After seeing the mirror, the young lady's first reaction was to instinctively move away, and her face was filled with fear. However, just as the young lady was about to shift her gaze away from the mirror, she was instantly stunned. This was because at this moment, she saw an extremely beautiful girl in the mirror, at least in her eyes.
"This, this is me?"
The young lady couldn't believe it. She kept rubbing her face in front of the mirror, and gradually, she realized that the girl in the mirror was herself. After confirming all this, the young lady's astonishment gradually turned into joy, and then into ecstasy. From rubbing her face tentatively, she began to spin and dance in front of the mirror. She was so happy that she laughed out loud. That sweet laughter was like a wind chime that was blown by a cool breeze, so pleasant to the ear.
Facing such a young lady, Xing Jue, who had meticulously arranged everything, could only continue to pretend to be asleep. This was because he couldn't bear to ruin the young lady's good mood at this moment. However, at this moment, he was very happy in his heart. At least, he felt that the knot in the young lady's heart had been untied by him.
However, at this moment, Xing Jue suddenly realized that the young lady was approaching him. The young lady seemed to be very careful, but she was indeed getting closer. Just as Xing Jue was guessing what the young lady wanted to do, he felt that his body was actually covered by a thick blanket. When he opened his eyes, it was actually the blanket that he had covered the young lady with.
"You're awake."
However, what shocked Xing Jue the most was that when he looked at the young lady in front of him again, although there was still a trace of fear in the young lady's blood-red eyes, this time, the young lady not only looked at him directly, but also actually spoke to him.
"Are you hungry? You can have these snacks."
Seeing that Xing Jue was only looking at her with a faint smile, the young lady seemed to feel a little awkward. She quickly turned around and took the plate of snacks from the bed and placed it in front of Xing Jue.
As she spoke, she actually picked up a piece of snack and wanted to put it in Xing Jue's mouth. However, just as she did that, she hurriedly put the snack in her hand back on the plate as if she was frightened.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I …" Then, the young lady actually stood ten feet away from Xing Jue and apologized. Looking at her pink face, Xing Jue knew that this time, the young lady wasn't afraid, but shy.
"Strange, this girl's personality is so strange."
"But to be able to put down your guard against me so quickly, it's out of my expectations," Seeing the young lady like this, although Xing Jue also felt a little strange, he was still very happy.
"What's your name?" Xing Jue slightly squinted his eyes and asked with a gentle smile.
"I, I don't have a name," the young lady turned around timidly, and when she saw Xing Jue's bright smile, her timidity actually dissipated a lot.
"You don't have a name? Then what about your family? "After hearing the young lady's words, Xing Jue was stunned at first, after which he asked again.
"I also don't have a family." The young lady's answer was very simple, but in her flickering eyes, Xing Jue could still see the sadness in the young lady's heart.
At this moment, Xing Jue actually became silent. He didn't know what to say, he was afraid that his words would bring up the unhappy past of the young lady.
"Can you be my family?"
But to Xing Jue's surprise, the young lady actually took the initiative to speak to him and even asked him to be her family.
"Can you be my family?" Looking at Xing Jue's dull expression, the young lady's hands tightly grasped her tattered clothes, as if she had made a big decision, and once again spoke with a slightly trembling voice.
"Of course, I can be your older brother." At this moment, Xing Jue finally believed his ears.
Seeing that Xing Jue actually agreed to her, the young lady seemed to be a little bit in disbelief and asked again.
"Of course, I swear to the heavens," Xing Jue raised his right hand and vowed solemnly.
"Then, then can you give me a name?" Seeing Xing Jue like this, the young lady seemed to be very happy, and her eyes were filled with a look of desire.
"Okay, then do you have anything that you like the most?" Xing Jue suddenly stood up, he walked in front of the young lady and asked with a smile.
"I like blood!" Hearing Xing Jue's question, the young lady actually raised her small face in an extremely abnormal manner, and looked directly at Xing Jue. And on that innocent face, there was actually something that should not have belonged to her, that was actually confidence.
"Blood?"
After hearing the young lady's answer, Xing Jue was shocked, as if layers of waves were set off in his heart, continuously surging. He did not understand, why would such a young lady like blood? Like blood, what did that mean?
At this moment, Xing Jue actually thought of the bloodthirsty female devil, and even more so of the thousands of clansmen in the Li Residence who died in a manner where their blood was sucked dry, and even linked the deaths of the Li Residence's clansmen to this innocent young lady before him.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Xing Jue was a little distracted, the young lady actually blinked her large blood-red eyes, looking innocent, as if she did not understand why Xing Jue was so shocked.
"Heh, it's nothing. Look, I'm your brother, and you're my sister. Since you like blood, I might as well call you Blood Sister." Even though he was extremely shocked, Xing Jue still pretended that he did not care.
"Blood Sister, mm, Blood Sister likes this name." After hearing the name that Xing Jue had given her, the young lady actually smiled joyfully again, as if she was very satisfied with the name that Xing Jue had given her.
Looking at the young lady before him, even Xing Jue's heart was filled with surprise and doubt, because he realized that the young lady's change seemed to be a little too fast, so fast that it was beyond his expectations.
If one said that she had untied the knot in her heart, it would be better to say that she had changed into a completely different person. However, in the next moment, when the young lady said the next sentence, Xing Jue was completely stunned.
"Brother, you really want to know about the Li Residence, right? Blood Sister, I know everything!"
