Path Of The Lilies 249 Regrouping Again

It was no wonder that people always said that Eon Energy Master Rank 3 was the beginning of a completely new path.

'Now that I reached rank 3, I'll be able to head into the academy in the north.'

At the thought of the academy, Ye Jiao's mind recalled the discussion she had with her mother. At that time, her mother told her that it was the place where these people wouldn't be able to touch her. She would be able to stay safe and become much stronger by going there.

This filled her with hope.

However, she would need to find out when the selection would begin because she would have to reach there before it began. There was still a lot of preparation that she needed to do.

Standing up from her position, Ye Jiao tested her ability to control Eon Energy. It was astonis.h.i.+ng how she could easily control them even at the larger distance. Before, she would have a lot of problems when she tried it.

'It's great!'

After a few minutes testing here and there, Ye Jiao departed back to Bao Fu Organization Headquarter. She wanted to meet with her senior brother once again. After all, when they reached rank 3, she was sure that her master would give them another mission.

The kind of mission that would make them vomit blood.

Swis.h.!.+

The speed at which Ye Jiao could travel increased exponentially. Now, she didn't have much trouble to reach the headquarters. In but a short time, she would be able to cross the distance from Chen Kingdom Capital City to the headquarters.

It was extremely convenient.

"Senior Brother Yu, are you here?"

"Ai Jiao?" Lu Wan's words were slurry. Apparently, he has been sleeping a lot after he had finished his research. Getting into the door, he opened it and saw Ye Jiao standing in front of him.

"Good morning, Senior Brother Yu."

"Good morning," Lu Wan yawned and got into the room again. His appearance was messy, but he didn't really care about it. "Where have you been?"

"I've just returned from Chen Kingdom Capital City."

"Huh? What are you doing over there? I thought that there's nothing that you need to do anymore," Lu Wan eyed his junior sister suspiciously. If she tried to enact her revenge once more and their master found out....

"Uh… I…"

"Did you try to get your revenge?"

"Yes," Ye Jiao's voice trailed at the end of her words. She was trying to avert her eyes from looking at Lu Wan.

Lu Wan looked at Ye Jiao suspiciously. "What did you do this time? Who's having a bad time because of you?"

"Wei Mi."

"That arrogant girl? Did you kill her?"

Ye Jiao shook her head. She hesitated for a bit before telling Lu Wan what she did with Wei Liao to Wei Family. After she had finished, Lu Wan was speechless. He knew very well the pain of someone who was used to being pampered all the time and praised all the time then they have to face the mockery and jeer from other people. It wouldn't be easy.

The mental torture was simply overwhelming.

It was not even new to hear that someone might break down because of that. After all, not everyone would be able to stand on their ground facing them.

"You're quite ruthless, Jiao'er."

"You can say that."

"But they truly deserve it," Lu Wan shrugged. "Besides, if it's me, I'll do even worse than what you did to her."

"What?"

"I'll disfigure her. I'm sure that I can make the perfect poison for that. Without talent and beauty, I'm sure that she won't last long," Lu Wan smiled wickedly.

Seeing the plan that Lu Wan had, Ye Jiao was stunned. She didn't think that far because she only thought of making that girl feel despair. Now that he mentioned it, she realized that there was another thing that was worth a lot for a girl: her appearance.

Wei Mi might not be the most beautiful lady, but she was certainly one of the rare beauties in Chen Kingdom. Without talent and beauty, it would surely hit that girl harder than what she had experienced now. However, Ye Jiao had completely forgotten about that aspect when she was planning her attack.

"I didn't think that far."

"You're still too soft, Jiao'er."

Ye Jiao nearly laughed when her senior brother called her soft. In her opinion, she was not soft at all. Because of her scheme, the Wei Family has been in constant trouble for the past few months. She might not do everything directly by herself, but she had been affecting things little by little from a long time ago.

Unfortunately, there hadn't been any chance for her to attack the Imperial Family as of now. If only there was a chance, she would never let them off.

"By the way, have you thought about your martial path and whether this will affect them?" Lu Wan recalled that their master had warned them about this in the past. Just like Ye Jiao, he also has his own grudge but never tried to make a move like her. He only ignored them and clashed occasionally.

Now that Lu Wan mentioned it, Ye Jiao recalled that her master did ask her a long time ago. She never thought about it so much, but she knew that her heart wouldn't feel at ease if she didn't do anything to get back to the Wei Family. They had taken everything from her and gave her so much grievance, so she couldn't just let them off without doing anything.

"I don't know."

"Do you feel bad for making a move against them?"

"Not at all."

Lu Wan smiled. "Then you have your answer."

Hearing his words, Ye Jiao was stunned for a moment. A smile broke out of her lips. Yeah, she didn't feel regret for making a move against them because she was venting her grievances for what they did to her in the past.

Becoming a martial artist didn't mean that she would become a saint who would always forgive everyone. She couldn't do that, not at the degree of what they had done to her. If she let them off, she knew that they would still chase after her. Even though she didn't understand why, she realized fully that they would never tolerate her existences.

It was to the point that either they died or she died.

If she didn't become ruthless and attacked them when she had the chance, they would surely try to find out her location and killed her. In a way, it was meant to protect herself.

Because her heart understood this, Ye Jiao knew that she was feeling at ease. The supposedly contradictory paths before her intertwined because of their actions to her and her own decision.

"Yeah, thank you very much, Senior Brother Lu."
