Chapter 473 As long as it agrees
If it were just herself, she would be willing to go through fire and water, but Xiao Jintao's fate is not something she can decide.
At this moment, Qin Beiyao and the others standing behind her also fell silent. This was a dilemma; it seemed like there was a choice, but in reality, there was no other option.
Shui Lian'er knew that Li Qian must be feeling very helpless, so she immediately strode over to her side and firmly grasped her hand.
She said nothing.
But she knew that Li Qian must understand what she meant—no matter what choice she made, she would stand by her side.
Jiang Li's hand, hidden beneath her light sleeve, gradually tightened its grip on hers.
Shui Lian'er's eyes flickered, and she gripped her hand even tighter.
Qin Beiyao walked over and asked Jiang Liqian in a low voice, "Shall we go?"
He led the way.
Jiang Li lowered her eyes slightly, then suddenly waved her hand, releasing the little golden peach from the spirit beast pouch.
Little Golden Peach was half asleep when she landed in Jiang Liqian's arms. She subconsciously rubbed her soft, fluffy chin against Jiang Liqian's hand.
Jiang Liqian hugged it tightly.
She looked up at Ying Shuang and Ye An'an.
"It is not my divine beast. I don't even have a beast-taming contract with it. It's just a simple life contract. I can't tell it what to do. I don't have that right."
"If you want... it to help you, I'll do it without hesitation, as long as it agrees."
Ying Shuang was surprised, even shocked!
It's understandable not to form a master-servant contract, but facing a beast Hou with the bloodline of an ancient divine beast that will surely be incredibly powerful in the future, they didn't even form a beast-taming contract to fight together. Instead, they only had a simple life-linking contract. Even the Ye family, a family with a hundred-year history of beast taming and accustomed to all kinds of rare and exotic beasts, couldn't imagine it.
You should know that the Spirit Contract is the easiest to break. As long as the divine beast wants, it can immediately change masters without any cost.
Although Ye An'an had not expected the contract between Jiang Liqian and Little Golden Peach to be like this, based on her understanding of Jiang Liqian, she knew that Jiang Liqian was not someone who loved the way of beast taming. She adopted Little Golden Peach out of a moment of pity and never expected that it would have any fighting power or be of any help to her.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept Little Golden Peach as a cute little dog without knowing it was a mythical beast.
So she wasn't very surprised.
She just didn't know how to bring it up with Little Golden Peach.
Activating the Water-Separating Breath Array is extremely dangerous. If it weren't for her people, she would never have let the little phoenix take such a risk, even if it meant death.
But there was really no other way. She even went to her original state of mind, only to find a prophecy of "curse for all eternity".
There is another sentence.
[The sky will fall, the earth will collapse, the other shore will perish, and this shore will disappear.]
Must the world collapse before the Ye family can escape the curse of death?
The little golden peach in Jiang Liqian's arms covered its mouth with its little paws, yawned widely, shook its two little ears, jumped down from the crook of her arm, and jumped into Ye An'an's arms.
It affectionately licked the back of her hand, its eyes still moist with sleepiness, but it had clearly overheard their conversation and made its own decision.
It nodded its little head at Ye An'an and Ying Shuang in agreement.
It patted its belly again, indicating that it needed to be given something good to eat.
Ying Shuang breathed a sigh of relief.
She admitted that she had acted somewhat despicably in this matter, but she really had no other choice. Her sister-in-law was on the verge of death, and she had already lost many relatives. She really couldn't afford to lose this very important relative to her when she knew there was a chance to do so.
She would compensate Jiang Liqian and the little divine beast with spirit stones, magic treasures, secret manuals, cultivation techniques... anything the Ye family had, anything they wanted, she could give them.
Ye An'an's eyes welled up with tears of joy. She gently patted Little Golden Peach's head and immediately ordered people to bring lots and lots of spiritual fruits and spirit wine for Little Golden Peach to eat as much as she wanted.
"Li Qian, I...I don't know what to say..."
Jiang Liqian raised her hand to stop her from apologizing, stepped forward, and gently hugged her.
"I see."
She understood her dilemma and the guilt in her heart.
"This is Little Golden Peach's choice, and I respect it. You don't need to feel sorry for me. It's not your fault, nor is it my fault. It's just... fate."
Ye An'an hugged her tightly in an instant.
"Jiang Liqian, I finally understand why Xu Youan likes to stick to you so much."
Being near the water, one enjoys the gentle warmth of the bright moon.
-
The curse should be lifted as soon as possible, and it should not be known by too many people. Otherwise, it will cause a great uproar in the Heavenly Spirits where there are many people talking, which will be detrimental to the Ye family.
Without hesitation, Ye An'an chose to break the curse tonight.
To ensure that the information would not be leaked, she took everyone present to a forbidden area in the mountains northwest of Ye City.
She first let Little Phoenix and Little Golden Peach fill their stomachs on the side and get ready, while she and Ying Shuang went to the side.
Ye An'an told Ying Shuang about her decision, and Ying Shuang immediately waved her sleeve, firmly opposing it.
"I disagree. I'd rather go than you. You are the young master of the Ye family, the future of the Ye family. There can be no mistakes!"
"Second Aunt!" Ye An'an said helplessly. She knew it would be difficult to persuade Ying Shuang to accept, but it was something she, as the young master of the Ye family, had to do. "I am not the future of the Ye family. The lives of the ten thousand members of the Ye family are the future of the Ye family."
"Besides, my fate is tied to Little Phoenix's. If something were to happen, I wouldn't be able to survive alone anyway, would I? Rather than putting someone else in danger, I'd rather do it myself."
"But……"
"Second Aunt, this is my decision, and it is also my responsibility."
Ying Shuang remained silent and finally did not object.
Although the girl in front of me is still very young, she is no longer the little girl who only knew how to compete and cause trouble everywhere.
She has grown up.
Ying Shuang choked up, feeling both relieved and heartbroken.
She could only silently pray that God would bless the Ye family and her An'er, and that her prime years would not end at this moment.
Before long, all those preparing to form a battle formation arrived at the forbidden area in the mountains without alerting anyone, all under Ying Shuang's arrangement.
At a glance, Jiang Liqian spotted Chunxiao and Kongjue.
For some unknown reason, the two started fighting again. Chunxiao tried to grab Kongjue's hair, but after several attempts, she couldn't reach it. Then she realized that the other person didn't actually have such a thing, so she angrily twisted his ear.
Kongjue also had a temper. He placed the golden bowl in his hand directly over the other party's beautiful hair bun, deliberately messing up the sparkling hairpins on her hair. Then he glared at her triumphantly, watching her jump up and down in anger, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Jiang Liqian originally wanted to go up and greet them, but seeing how embarrassed they were, she silently retreated and pretended not to see them.
