Shan Qing Luo’s name was not something that could be mentioned casually.

Seeing their Young Lord act so boldly caused the two Blood Warriors’ brows to rise, and their expressions were somewhat intrigued.

That was Qiu Yi Meng! The Qiu Family’s First Young Lady, one of the dynasty’s favoured daughters of Heaven, was the target of almost every great family’s Young Lords.

However, even after being treated like this, she didn’t strike back but instead simply struggled like an ordinary woman.

Exchanging a quick glance, the two Blood Warriors could see the excitement in each other’s eyes.

[There’s definitely something between them!] Tu Feng and Tang Yu Xian both thought in their hearts.

“Let go of me!” Qiu Yi Meng who couldn’t break free quietly muttered under her breath.

However, Yang Kai gave her a threatening look before slowly releasing his hand and taking a few steps back.

Frowning deeply, Yang Kai stared at her indifferently and stated, “I don’t owe you anything. Everything you encountered you brought upon yourself, it had nothing to do with me.”

“Heartless bastard!” Qiu Yi Meng cursed viciously.

“Don’t say those kinds of easily misunderstood words, we only met by chance, there’s no friendship between us!” Yang Kai coldly snorted.

Qiu Yi Meng suddenly felt angry, as she found that none of her usual means had any effect on Yang Kai. If she had spent so much effort on any other young lords in the capital, they would all be more than willing to nod their heads and wag their tails for her, so why was this one always so cold towards her?

“There’s a lot of things I have to ask you, is there any place private we can talk?” Yang Kai said as he looked around.

Qiu Yi Meng snorted disdainfully; however, after calming herself for a moment she still nodded, “Come with me.”

The many High Heaven Pavilion disciples who had watched this scene play out all felt baffled.

Just now, Yang Kai and Qiu Yi Meng didn’t make any effort to conceal their discussion or their attitudes towards each other.

Just who Qiu Yi Meng was, they all knew quite well. Yet, it seemed like Yang Kai was acquainted with her, and their relationship was by no means simple.

What magical ability did he have in the end? How had he managed to become associated with the Qiu Family’s First Young Lady?

Not long after the group departed, Xie Hong Chen landed nearby with a slightly embarrassed appearance. After chasing after it for so long, he still hadn’t managed to even catch a single feather from the Golden Eagle, on the contrary, he had nearly been injured by it instead.

After landing, he quickly discovered that Yang Kai had disappeared.

“Where’s Yang Kai?” Xie Hong Chen asked the disciples around him coldly.

“Young Lady Qiu arrived and led him away.” A junior brother answered.

“Led him away?” Xie Hong Chen’s brow furrowed, and a look of disbelief spread across his face, “Are you sure she led him personally?”

The junior brother didn’t dare say he was certain about it but simply replied, “It seems like Young Lady Qiu wanted to discuss something with him.”

Xie Hong Chen nodded but was still suspicious. Why did Qiu Yi Meng want to talk to him? Previously she had given him authority over the rebuilding process so what qualifications did that little brat have to speak with her?

Unable to quell his doubts, he quickly walked toward the place where Qiu Yi Meng and Luo Xiao Man had temporarily taken up residence.

In a house nearby, Qiu Yi Meng and Luo Xiao Man sat in front of a table across from Yang Kai.

The house was very simple without any furnishings or decorations in it. It was obviously a newly built structure, probably erected specifically for the Qiu Yi Meng and Luo Xiao Man while they resided in High Heaven Pavilion.

Outside the house, Tu Feng and Tang Yu Xian stood guard, indifferent to everything around them, and their expressions were cold and serious.

After the Qiu Family’s First Young Lady personally served tea, she sat back down and stared at Yang Kai for a moment before speaking, “If you have anything to ask, just ask!”

“When did she let you go?” Yang Kai lifted the teacup and casually asked.

“One month ago,” Qiu Yi Meng grinned wryly, obviously understanding that the ‘she’ Yang Kai was referring to was the Beguiling Demon Queen Shan Qing Luo. “She really didn’t embarrass us and only took us around to various battlefields. Before the decisive battle, she let us go.”

“And, what happened?”

“A lot of my preconceived notions changed….” Qiu Yi Meng paused for a moment before earnestly saying, “I used to believe that the world’s evil was contained within the Ash-Grey Cloud Evil Land and that all who lived there were demons and devils, but now I can’t think that way anymore. I saw many innocents brutally murdered by our so-called righteous path. I also saw many of our so-called just Sects commit numerous outrages inside the Ash-Grey Cloud Evil Land…. she was right that this world isn’t only black and white. Everyone has demons in their hearts, and everyone can become a demon, it all depends on whether or not they choose to give in to those urges or not.”

“En,” Yang Kai nodded lightly as he witnessed the great change Qiu Yi Meng had undergone. It was indeed a rare enlightenment.

Shan Qing Luo was right to bring her around the battlefield.

Perhaps Shan Qing Luo had hoped to use the power of the Qiu Family to change the world’s opinion of the Ash-Grey Cloud Evil Land, possibly bring about a more permanent understanding and peace.

“After she let us go, the next place I came was here.” Qiu Yi Meng said with a smile.

“Then, does the Qiu Family know you’re safe?” Yang Kai’s brow furrowed.

“I have already sent them a message informing them of my safety,” Qiu Yi Meng nodded, “I also sent a letter to Purple Fern Valley, as for the Bai Family…”

Yang Kai gazed sharpened slightly as he stared straight at Qiu Yi Meng.

However, the latter simply giggled, “Oh, don’t worry, I told Xiao Man to tell the Bai Family that Bai Yun Feng was hunted down by the Thunder
