1488 Shattering His Hopes for the Human World (2)

The lion’s sideburns were thick and dense, and it wasn’t comfortable to touch.

Jing Jiaren sized up the red lion and commented, “You’ve gained weight. You must have been slacking off for the

past two years.”

“Roar!” The lion’s response was a coquettish roar.

This lion was born in the Lion Clan. Because it was small and couldn’t cultivate spiritual energy, it was destined to

only be an ordinary demon beast and was abandoned by the Lion Clan.

The first time Jing Jiaren and Ye Qingyang went out together to train after they got engaged, they happened to

encounter this red-furred lion. Seeing that it was starving, Ye Qingyang saved it.

Later, on the night the Ye family was exterminated, Ye Qingyang was hidden by his clansmen in an interspatial ring

that could store living things. He was thrown into the river at the back of the mountain and floated along the river

into the distance. Only then did he manage to escape. However, Ye Qingyang’s beloved pet, the red lion, was

abandoned in the Ye family.

Later, Ye Qingyang’s Beast Heart was dug out and sold by the auction house. Then, his whereabouts became

unknown.

Later on, the Ye family’s ancestral home became deserted. The local government wanted to auction the Ye family’s

ancestral home to build the city. Jing Ruge thought about how hundreds of people in the Ye family had died in that

old house and how it would be a pity if the Ye family’s ancestral home was sold just like that, so she bought that

piece of land.

After buying the Ye family’s ancestral home, Jing Jiaren brought her people to the Ye family’s house and renovated

the Ye family’s house that had been destroyed to the point of being unbearable to look at. Then, she erected a

monument in the Ye family’s square. Many years later, Ye Qingyang returned to the Divination Continent as a Grand

Master ghostly cultivator. He massacred his enemies in a single night and burned down the Ye family’s ancestral

home.

After that, there was no longer a Ye family on the Divination Continent.

Jing Jiaren actually knew very well that the reason Ye Qingyang didn’t severely injure her after he defeated her on

the apocalypse battlefield was because he was grateful to the Jing family for buying the Ye family’s home and

erecting a monument for the Ye family’s phantoms so that their souls could have a place.

Ye Qingyang was actually very upright and principled.

He resented the Jing family for betraying him back then, resented Jing Jiaren’s heartless words, but was also

grateful for the Jing family’s subsequent actions.

Jing Jiaren discovered this red lion when she went to the Ye family to set up a monument. That day, Jing Jiaren

heard the guard report that he had discovered a starving lion in the Young Master’s Mansion at the back of the

mountain.

When Jing Jiaren heard the news, she hurriedly went to the back mountain. When she found the red lion, it was as

thin as a skeleton and was lying in Ye Qingyang’s courtyard, like a stone statue. No matter who handed it water or

fed it, it ignored them.

Only when it saw Jing Jiaren did the red lion slowly get up. It walked to Jing Jiaren’s side step by step and laid its

head by her feet while letting out a despairing and pained roar.

It had seen its master’s family get killed with its own eyes. When it saw its master’s fiancée, it thought that it had

seen hope. However, it didn’t know that Jing Jiaren had already ruthlessly abandoned Ye Qingyang.

Later on, the Red Lion became Jing Jiaren’s beloved pet.

Jing Jiaren said, “I have to take a bath. Are you coming with me?”

The red lion roared and wagged its tail as it followed Jing Jiaren to the hot spring in the backyard. After Jing Jiaren

walked into the hot spring in a negligee, warm water wrapped around her fair and smooth body. The red lion laid by

the pool like a Divine Gatekeeper.

As Jing Jiaren looked at the red lion on the shore, she suddenly asked, “Honghong, do you miss him?”

Honghong didn’t react.

Jing Jiaren asked again, “Honghong, do you miss Ah Yang?”

Honghong suddenly raised its head and looked at Jing Jiaren eagerly.

Jing Jiaren’s heart ached. “Honghong, I forgot to tell you that I’m not worthy of your trust at all. He was once down

in the dumps. Many cultivators on the Divination Continent are sinners, and I’m the one with the deepest sin.”

They couldn’t kick Ye Qingyang into the abyss that easily. She was the one who truly kicked Ye Qingyang into the

abyss.

She had personally crushed his hope, his love, and his last hope for humanity.

Therefore, she deserved to be hated by Ye Qingyang.

Honghong looked at Jing Jiaren with confusion and whimpered, as if it was asking Jing Jiaren, “Where is Ah Yang?”

Jing Jiaren couldn’t bear to look at Honghong’s eyes, which were filled with longing. She slowly sank into the hot

spring to hide her tears.

Seeing that Jing Jiaren didn’t get up even after a long time, Honghong felt uneasy. It hated hot water the most, but

it jumped into the hot spring without hesitation to carry Jing Jiaren out.

As Jing Jiaren looked at the red lion that was covered in wet fur, she suddenly shook her head and said with a smile,

“Even you know how to protect me, but I refused to protect him…”

After a long-awaited shower, Jing Jiaren changed into a silk nightgown and sat in the garden with the red lion to

admire the moonlight.

At this moment, a butler in a black tuxedo walked in quickly with a lunch box. Seeing Jing Jiaren resting against the

red lion’s majestic body, the butler said softly, “Young Master, the Patriarch asked me to bring you the Divine

Suppression Soup.”

“I still have to drink it?” Jing Jiaren opened her eyes and stared at the butler as she said, “I don’t have a headache

anymore, so I don’t have to drink the Divine Suppression Soup anymore, right?”

The butler smiled and said, “Even if you don’t have a headache anymore, drinking a bowl of Divine Suppression

Soup is beneficial to your health. Besides, you’re going to participate in a grand event tomorrow morning. After

drinking the Divine Suppression Soup, you can sleep well and participate in the competition tomorrow in high spirits.

Wouldn’t that be the best?”

Jing Jiaren shook her head and extended her arm towards him. “Give it to me.”

The butler hurriedly opened the lunch box and took out a black porcelain bowl with red soup in it. This Divine

Suppression Soup was taken from a level-10 Divine Beast, and its blood had the miraculous effect of calming one’s

mind and soul. Jing Jiaren had been weak since she was young, so Madam Zhang personally went to the Demonic

Beast Forest and captured a level-10 Divine Beast to raise in the Jing family’s Demonic Beast Pool.

When she was young, Jing Jiaren drank a bowl of Divine Suppression Soup every week.

Jing Jiaren frowned as she drank the Divine Suppression Soup and she wrinkled her nose at the smell of blood. “I’m

going to bed now.” Every time she drank the Divine Suppression Soup, Jing Jiaren became very sleepy, and this time

was no exception.

The butler nodded. Then, he thought of something and said, “Young Master, Madam wants you to see her before

you set off tomorrow morning. She said that she has a talisman for you.”

“My mom is so superstitious,” Jing Jiaren muttered as she returned to the room.
