Jiang Jingmo and Ke Siwu chatted until very late. When she left, she gave the few remaining invisibility pills to Ke Siwu, which should be enough to keep her going for a while longer.

On the way back, we were silent all the way.

Jiang Jingmo walked into her room. Her spiritual sense swept over Yingchi who was still silent, and she couldn't help but ask him a question.

"If you can save most people by giving up one person, what would you choose?"

Yingchi was stunned for a long time before he spoke with a wry smile.

"If it was before, I would have given up on that person without hesitation, but now I find it difficult to make a decision."

Jiang Jingmo sat quietly by the window, staring at the pale sky rising in the horizon, and he seemed a little silent.

"What about you, Xiao Jingmo, what will you choose?"

"I?"

Jiang Jingmo was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to find her voice again.

"That depends on whether I am the one who was abandoned or one of the majority."

.........

The so-called pure blood was never found, and Ke Ye only had one day left.

The patriarch sat beside his grandson's bed, his eyes, which were always shrewd and sharp, were dazed for a moment.

An Huai was taking Ke Ye's pulse with a very solemn expression. He looked at the clan leader and shook his head gently at her.

"This cold energy has penetrated deep into my bones. Unless I find pure blood today, there is no way to stop it."

The clan leader had already guessed the ending, and upon hearing this he just nodded dully, his wrinkled hands gently touching Ke Ye's hair.

Even though their clan possessed strong healing powers, they were helpless against this cold and gloomy energy.

"Uncle, what is this cold and gloomy air?"

An Yang stood beside An Huai and spoke curiously. She had spent a lot of time with An Huai during these days and liked this kind uncle very much.

An Huai touched her head, and Jiang Jingmo also looked over in confusion.

Jiang Jingmo was actually extremely confused about this cold and gloomy aura, because no matter in the past life or now, the clan leader never told her anything about why Ke Ye had a cold and gloomy aura on him.

But the current patriarch nodded towards An Huai.

"You tell them about this. I have decided to give them that thing."

An Huai nodded. The clan leader had already told him what the disciples of Jiuxiao Sect wanted. Although he did not agree with this at first, after he saw the formation mentioned in Qin Qing's letter, he had no choice but to agree.

This matter concerns everyone in the world.

"This cold and gloomy aura was brought to him by his sister."

An Huai sighed and told the story of the Yin woman, and then mentioned Ke Su, Ke Ye’s biological sister.

"Su'er and Ye'er are twins, a boy and a girl. Su'er was born a few breaths earlier, on a Yin year, a Yin month, a Yin day, and a Yin time. She was born with white hair and red eyes, which also destined her to be a Yin girl."

The room was very quiet, and An Huai's voice was particularly obvious. Ke Siwu, who was hiding outside the window, listened to his voice. When he heard that it was he who brought the cold and gloomy air to Ke Ye, a rare flash of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Jiang Jingmo was also surprised. She looked at the clan leader. If Ke Siwu was Ke Su...

Jiang Jingmo recalled what Ke Siwu said yesterday, that the training of each generation of Yin women is the responsibility of the clan leader. Then the person who personally threw Ke Siwu into the worm cave must be the clan leader!

At this moment, Jiang Jingmo finally understood why Ke Siwu had such hatred.

If sacrificing her as the only one for the sake of the whole clan was enough to make her resentful, then the fact that it was her closest relatives who pushed her into the abyss was enough to make her disheartened and lose all hope.

"Ye'er is an exception."

The clan leader spoke slowly, and there was a bit of complexity in her eyes as she looked at Ke Ye.

"In fact, most people in the tribe don't know that Yin girls are mostly twins, boy and girl. Only when the yin and yang are in harmony can the Yin girl be born. In this process, the male fetus will often have its yang energy constantly damaged by the cold yin energy, and will be slowly absorbed by the female fetus, so that only a girl can be born in the end."

"But Su'er is different from Ye'er. They were born as twins. Besides being affected by some cold and gloomy energy, Ye'er is even fatter than Su'er."

"why is that?"

Jiang Jingmo asked in confusion, but the patriarch just shook his head slightly.

"We don't really know. This is the first time this has happened in thousands of years, but I think it must be related to Su'er."

The patriarch smiled, and a hint of tenderness unconsciously appeared on his face.

"Su'er loved Ye'er very much. In the five years after she was born, no matter what her father and mother gave her, she would run back to give it to Ye'er and protect him in everything."

"Ye'er was also the one who depended on Su'er the most. When he just learned to speak, he called his sister instead of his parents...Su'er was taken away when he was five years old, and Ye'er cried for a whole month..."

As she spoke, the clan leader seemed to have thought of something, her eyes turned redder and redder, and her cloudy eyes were filled with self-blame. She wanted to continue speaking, but An Huai took over the conversation.

"At that time, no one knew that Ye'er could survive, but later when I came to check Su'er's pulse, I found a clue, because in Su'er's body, there was twice as much cold and yin energy as before."

An Huai smiled, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"Su'er might really like Ye'er, so he carefully kept the cold energy in his body and saved Ye'er's life."

After listening, Jiang Jingmo remained silent, as if he had thought of something. He raised his eyes to look towards the window, then found an excuse to go out.

Ke Siwu stood there, not knowing what to say for a moment. He just sat there in a daze, and was dismissive of what An Huai said.

But somehow, she could still inexplicably recall what Ke Ye looked like when she was a child, such a small ball, following her around every day and calling her sister.

She admitted that she cared about her younger brother a lot when she was young, but now...

"What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Jingmo sat next to her and lowered his voice deliberately, fearing that people in the room would notice.

"I didn't think much of it. I just thought they were being hypocritical."

Ke Siwu twitched the corner of his mouth and looked a little dazed.

"You should have heard it too, Ke Ye is about to die." Jiang Jingmo was silent for a while and said slowly.

"…What does it have to do with me?" Ke Siwu was stunned and gave a bitter smile.

"Don't you want to go in and take a look? Isn't that your brother?"

"It's long gone."

Ke Siwu looked forward. It was no longer the case since she was locked up there to fend for herself, while Ke Ye grew up slowly under the careful care of the clan leader.

Brother and sister from the same mother, but with completely opposite lives.

"But don't you care about him very much?" Jiang Jingmo turned to look at her.

"Why would I care about him?"

Ke Siwu thought Jiang Jingmo's words were ridiculous. How could she care about someone she hadn't seen for ten years...

But the latter looked at her steadily, with a knowing smile on his face.

"Since you don't care about him, why do you eavesdrop on him every day?"
