#360 - Chapter 360 The Little Girl in the Corpse Pile
South Cloud Continent.
Inside a certain sect of the Demonic Cult.
A young girl, dressed in a blood-stained white dress, sat on a high pile of corpses, propping her head with one hand, watching crows feast.
After the war, small sects couldn't survive at all.
She was originally a little girl kidnapped by the Demonic Cult sect, whom the Demonic Cult intended to train into a killing tool.
But as soon as the training started, the war broke out, and the entire Demonic Cult sect was also destroyed.
The little girl sat alone on the pile of corpses, her eyes somewhat dull, not knowing where to go or what to do.
Her eyes were filled with corpses and blood.
"Dead, all dead," the little girl whispered.
"The people who wanted to kill me are dead, and the people who wanted to save me are also dead!"
She felt no fear, nor sadness, but rather a bit of madness.
"Are you afraid?" Just then, a warm voice sounded from behind her.
"What is afraid?" The girl turned her head to look at Ye Kong, a hint of madness in her eyes.
Ye Kong sat down beside her, pointing to the corpses and blood on the ground, "Are you afraid of this scene?"
The little girl numbly shook her head, "I don't know what afraid is."
Ye Kong looked at the little girl, her long dress stained red with blood, only numbness remained on her pure and beautiful face, and her hair was messy as if it hadn't been taken care of for a long time.
Seeing this, Ye Kong helped her tidy her hair and asked, "I'll take you away, okay?"
Hearing this, the little girl asked blankly, "Where to?"
"To a… quiet, warm place," Ye Kong said.
"To die?"
Ye Kong: …
"No, to my Carefree Peak," Ye Kong said.
Hearing this, the little girl looked up at Ye Kong, her large eyes devoid of any emotion, like a machine.
"I… was originally called Er Ya, but later they named me Mo Sha," the little girl said truthfully.
"Then I'll give you a new name."
"Okay."
"You are called Ye Hongxue!" Ye Kong gave her a name.
"Mm," the little girl nodded, her expression unchanged.
Ye Kong took her hand and led her down the mountain of corpses.
"From now on, you are my, Ye Kong's, disciple. If you encounter any grievances outside, tell your teacher at any time, and your teacher will help you take revenge!" Ye Kong said softly to Ye Hongxue.
"Master, can I go to a place?"
"Where to?" Ye Kong asked.
"To Little Stream Village, that's where I grew up."
"Okay," Ye Kong nodded and took her to Little Stream Village.
Inside the Demonic Cult sect.
Ye Ling and Mu Qianyuan landed one after the other, standing on the mountain of corpses.
"Is Ye Kong acting out of kindness, or does he pity that little girl?" Mu Qianyuan frowned.
People like the little girl are everywhere in the cultivation world.
"Ye Kong accepts disciples based only on fate, perhaps this is that little girl's fate," Ye Ling said from the side.
"It's also a good thing that you've sorted out the South Cloud Continent and reduced the killings."
Mu Qianyuan shook his head and said helplessly, "The relationships between the major sects in the South Cloud Continent are too chaotic, and I can't sort them out in a short time."
"But I can make restrictions to protect the safety of ordinary people."
"Then alright, you're busy, Ye Kong might need me, I'll go take a look," Ye Ling said, flying towards Ye Kong.
Mu Qianyuan looked at the piled-up mountain of corpses, shaking his head and sighing.
"Chaos, too chaotic."
…
Little Stream Village.
There is a stream that surrounds the village.
The village is safe and sound, and every household is normal.
However, the stream around Little Stream Village was stained red with blood.
Ye Kong led Ye Hongxue into Little Stream Village, and many people, seeing Ye Hongxue covered in blood, were frightened and hid.
Ye Hongxue walked with a numb expression, and many children, seeing Ye Hongxue, said, "Isn't that Er Ya?"
"It seems to be Er Ya, she's back?"
"Who is the person beside her?"
"Er Ya is so scary."
Hearing their voices, Ye Hongxue's expression gradually became angry and crazed.
But Ye Kong stopped her, and Ye Kong could see that Ye Hongxue was on the verge of losing control.
"Ignore them, your teacher will protect you," Ye Kong said softly.
Hearing this, Ye Hongxue continued to walk, stopping in front of a house.
"Here, used to be my home," Ye Hongxue said, pointing to the house, a trace of hatred flashing in her eyes.
Ye Kong looked up, there were four or five people inside, three of whom were children and two were adults.
"Do you want to go in and take a look?"
"No," Ye Hongxue shook her head and said coldly, "I hate them."
After saying that, she pulled Ye Kong and continued to leave.
She came only to take a look, just a glance, at the person she hated.
After Ye Kong took Ye Hongxue away, he left South Cloud Continent directly and returned to Carefree Peak in Lianyun Continent.
"Is this, the quiet place?" Ye Hongxue stood on Carefree Peak, looking around.
"Yes, wait for Ye Ling to come later, and I'll have her give you a bath and change your clothes," Ye Kong nodded.
Hearing this, Ye Hongxue looked at the Bitter Sea in front of her and jumped down directly.
Many sea monsters smelled the blood and rushed over.
Ye Kong took out a fishing rod and forced all the sea monsters away.
"The water is cold, wash with hot water," Ye Kong shouted to Ye Hongxue.
Ye Hongxue didn't answer, but stood quietly in the water.
Ye Kong also couldn't conveniently go down, so he could only wait on the shore for Ye Ling to return.
Fortunately, after a dozen breaths, Ye Ling returned.
"I just went to buy clothes for your disciple," Ye Ling said after returning.
"Mm, take her to Carefree Pavilion and heat up some hot water for her to take a bath," Ye Kong instructed.
Ye Ling walked into the Bitter Sea, pulled Ye Hongxue up, took her to Carefree Pavilion, took out a bathtub, used the water of heaven and earth, and heated it up.
Then she hugged Ye Hongxue and put her in the bathtub.
"Hongxue," Ye Ling called out.
Ye Hongxue looked up and stared straight at Ye Ling, her eyes somewhat turbid.
"Don't be afraid, everything will be fine from now on, you can laugh, you can cry, if you are bullied, your senior brothers and sisters will stand up for you, and so will your master," Ye Ling comforted softly.
"Oh," Ye Hongxue replied indifferently.
Ye Ling knew that a great trauma had been left in her young heart, and it would take a long time to recover slowly.
All she could do was try to enlighten her.
Ye Ling wiped Ye Hongxue's body, washing away the blood and dirt, and styled Ye Ling's hair into a cute bun.
Finally, she put on a specially made long dress for Ye Hongxue, making Ye Hongxue look very cute.
However, she had no smile, her expression remained unchanged.
"Okay, you have to smile more in the future, smiling more is cute," Ye Ling squatted down and gently pinched Ye Hongxue's face.
Ye Hongxue's watery eyes looked at Ye Ling like dead fish eyes, without any waves.
"If you have anything in the future, you can come to me, I will help you solve it, you know," Ye Ling said softly.
"Why?" Ye Hongxue asked.
Ye Ling looked around, leaned close to Ye Hongxue's ear, and said, "Because, barring any accidents, if I work hard, in the future, I will be your master's wife!"
