Coffee shop

Yi Mingxia, who had just arrived at her coffee shop, was surprised to see the two men waiting for her. Even though she had been divorced from Ling Xiao for a very long time, she naturally still recognized Ming Han.

“What did you come here for, Ming Han?” Yi Mingxia asked as she sat across from them.

‘How long has she been a cultivator? I remember she was just an ordinary woman back then, and master didn’t say anything to me about the change in ex-madam.’ Ming Han looked at Yi Mingxia seriously. “I’m sorry, I came to meet you because of my master’s order; he asked me to ask your son for an antidote, and he also asked me to pick up the second miss and bring her back to Beijing.”

“Hmm? I think your coming here will only be in vain because Yun’er hates Ling Xiao very much, especially after he learned of all his schemes towards Ling’er. As for Xiya, I’m not sure if he wants to come back with you to Beijing.” Ming Han and Ming Wu raised their eyebrows after hearing that, and they didn’t understand the meaning behind her words, and Yi Mingxia continued. “Anyway, it would be better if you returned to Beijing right now. I’m sure that Yun’er would not be willing to give him the antidote. But if you insist on seeing my son, then it will be too late for you two to regret later.”

They frowned upon hearing her last sensation, and Ming Wu pounded the table and shouted at Yi Mingxia, startling the female employees. “How dare you threaten us!”

Ming Han also glared at her, but he was not in a hurry to take action because he knew the importance of this antidote for Ling Xiao. In addition, he had not been able to locate Ling Xiya either, so he decided to be patient.

“Threaten you?” Yi Mingxia shrugged casually and then spoke with a faint smile. “When Yun’er comes, then you will be the first to die, young man. It’s okay if you think I’m bluffing, but I know my son’s character very well, and I wouldn’t mind if he really wanted to kill you later.”

“You-” Ming Wu was about to shout at Yi Mingxia again, but Ming Han immediately stopped him by shaking his head.

‘I really have a bad feeling about this. Ex-madam was not this kind of person, but now she is like a different person. Is it true that the young master has the ability to kill us?’ Unlike Ming Wu, who was more emotional, Ming Han kept on observing Yi Mingxia, and he could feel that she was very confident in his words. “Ex-madam, please don’t make it difficult-”

Yi Mingxia abruptly and sternly interrupted Ming Han. “I made it difficult for you? You guys were the ones who made it difficult for us. For almost twenty years, we both lived peacefully in this city, but now you have come to disturb our peaceful life.”

In another place, two women were seen sitting side by side on chairs by the small pond, and it was obvious that the atmosphere between them was very awkward.

“Why do you want to meet me?” Ye Jing asked her twin sister, Hua Yue. 𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

‘Humph! You can be cocky now, but I’ll make you regret it later!’ Hua Yue snorted inwardly before pretending to be sorry. “I… want to apologize to you, Jing. I… know what I did to you was outrageous, and I really regret it. So… please give me a chance to change my attitude.”

Ye Jing looked at her twin sister in surprise, and she never thought that Hua Yue would apologize to her. But she didn’t answer her right away, and she was silent for a while.

Seeing Ye Jing fall silent, Hua Yue held her hands and looked at her with puppy eyes, and she timidly asked. “Could… could you give me one more chance, Jing?”

Ye Jing inwardly sighed; seeing her twin sister like that made her heart melt, and she also lowered her guard. “Fine! I will forgive you again this time, but if you do it again, then I will never forgive you forever.”

“Hehe, thank you for forgiving me, Jing.” Hua Yue immediately hugged Ye Jing, but a cruel grin appeared on her face, and she winked at Invidia, who was in front of her.

On the other hand, Shui Lan, who was in charge of guarding Ye Jing, was still oblivious to Hua Yue’s attitude, nor was she able to see Invidia.

Even though Invidia wasn’t a cultivator, she was still a spirit like Ling Xi, and she could choose to appear before others or not.

After receiving Hua Yue’s signal, Invidia’s body turned into a red light, and she entered Ye Jing’s body.

Before long, Ye Jing’s light blue eyes turned red like Invidia’s, and she smiled strangely. “Your sister is really suck! Unlike you, she has no jealousy or envy at all, and I feel uncomfortable controlling her.”

“What shall we do now, Invidia?” Hua Yue asked.

Ye Jing thought for a moment before answering. “We have to find a way to trick that female cultivator first. If we are successful in getting rid of her, I will take us into my space.”

Hua Yue then whispered something to her, and she nodded in agreement. They immediately left the campus and went for a walk, and they continued to talk like sisters who got along very well, and their purpose was to trick Shui Lan, who was still not aware that Ye Jing was already under Invidia’s control.

After they had walked around for a while, they went to a crowded place and went to the bathroom. Arriving at the bathroom, Ye Jing then opened a portal, and they rushed into it.

Shui Lan instantly frowned after Ye Jing’s aura disappeared from her senses. “Damn it! I was too careless! I thought the two of them had made up! But her twin sister is not even a cultivator, so how could they just disappear like that? Sigh, I have to inform Master as soon as possible, or else he’ll blame me for my carelessness.”

After he picked up Ling Xiya at the cafeteria, Ling Yun then took her on a walk to the campus. “What about this campus? Are you satisfied now after witnessing the activities in this place?”

“Well, it’s my first time going to a campus, but I like the atmosphere on this place. Unfortunately, Father forbade me from going to college, and he told me to focus on my cultivation.” Ling Xiya replied as she hugged her half brother’s arm, and Ling Yun allowed her to do so.

“Shouldn’t you be in high school now?” Ling Yun asked with a raised eyebrow, especially since Ling Xiya was only seventeen.

Ling Xiya chuckled. “You’re wrong about that, brother. Even though I’m only seventeen now, I’ve already graduated from high school.”

“Oh?” Ling Yun was surprised to hear that. “Hey, I didn’t expect you to be so smart; you even graduated from high school faster than me.”

Ling Xiya sighed heavily. “Since you were born after they were divorced and you never lived with our father, it’s only natural that you don’t know his character. He was too harsh and always forced me to study, and it frustrated me to keep studying, but I couldn’t go against his orders.”

“Hmm?” Ling Yun frowned once Shui Lan appeared in front of them, especially seeing her ugly expression. “What happened? Why is your expression like this?”

“Master, please forgive me; I lost track of Ye Jing.” Shui Lan replied fearfully, and she was terrified that Ling Yun would punish her severely later.

Ling Yun frowned even more upon hearing that. “How did you lose track of Jing’er? Where did she go?”

“Earlier, Hua Yue went to meet Ye Jing, and she apologized to her. After that, they went to the market not far from this place, and when they went to the bathroom together, I suddenly couldn’t feel her aura, so I immediately reported it to you.”

Ling Xi directly came out of his body and said. “Hey, Ling Yun, I believe it was Invidia’s doing, and she must have brought them into her space.”

‘Hmm?’ Ling Yun was surprised to hear that. ‘Are you able to trace the location of Invidia’s space? And are you able to separate Invidia from Hua Yue, Ling Xi?’

“I can trace Invidia’s space, but I can’t cancel her contract with Hua Yue, and only Invidia alone can cancel their contract.”

Ling Yun then asked frantically. ‘That means you can also cancel your contract with me?’

Ling Xi laughed in amusement at his panic. “We don’t have any contracts, Ling Yun. Our souls are bound together, so I can only leave you if you die. However, I am basically immortal, and I will never die as long as human lust doesn’t disappear.”

“I see.” Ling Yun was relieved after hearing her explanation, and he wasn’t disappointed in the slightest. After all, Ling Xi was a spirit, and he was only an ordinary human. ‘Anyway, we have to save Ye Jing as soon as possible.’

Ling Xi nodded, and she started looking for a way to enter Invidia’s space, and it wasn’t an easy job for her to do so.
