Ye Jun just stared at ihui silently, her eyes displaying her disgust and hatred over the betrayal that had almost killed her. But more than that, she was blaming herself for actually trusting her.
"You didn’t do anything wrong," Ye Jun said. "Not that I see it that way, at least. Trust is necessary in relationships, even if it’s friendships. Granted, you could have been more careful but I don’t think you did anything wrong in trusting soone you considered your friend."
"It was my fault for not seeing her true self and telling her my secrets."
"And you learned from your mistakes," Ye Jun shook his head and said. "But you didn’t shy away from trusting people again even though you experienced such betrayal. That’s comndable."
"I agree," Song Liangxue nodded. "The fact that you kept your background from us shows you learned your lesson. So don’t beat yourself over it."
"Exactly. Besides, if soone cos and kills a person, it doesn’t an it’s that person’s fault they died, right?"
ihui smiled faintly. "I really didn’t expect these words from you two of all people."
"What can I say, you fell for a wonderful person," Ye Jun smiled and said, holding her hand again. "Now, you have us. So, what did she do?"
"You can guess it," ihui sighed. "She was actually on a mission. Apparently, her Clan found out about my escape incident and planned to send her to as a friend. When she earned my trust and I told her my wish, she decided to help ."
She gripped his hand tightly and continued, "How naive I was back then, or maybe I was just blind in my desire of escaping the suffocation. When she extended her hand for help, I took it instantly."
As she fell silent, Song Liangxue asked, "She led you to a trap?"
ihui nodded in response. "Yes. It was a trap set outside the pocket dinsion. Unfortunately for them, they didn’t know about my true strength. They expected to be a weak target they could subjugate easily and use against the Jiang Clan. Even if they couldn’t, they could just kill ."
"You’re from an Ancient Clan, didn’t you have so life-saving treasures?" Ye Jun asked in confusion.
"I did, but I left them all at ho," ihui smiled bitterly and said. "They had my Clan’s mark and could be traced. Now that I think about it, she’s the one who told about this. She really did plan everything well."
She still rembered that day well, the day when she thought she would finally get freedom. Instead, she got stabbed in the back by the one person she considered her friend.
"I killed all of them," ihui said in a flat tone. "It was my first ti killing soone actually, but in my rage, I didn’t care about it. All of them were dead, but their poison wreaked havoc inside my body. It would have killed if I didn’t find shelter soon."
"And that’s where my dear husband cos into the picture," Song Liangxue added.
"Yes," ihui smiled. "Trusting him is the best choice of my life."
"I’m proud of you," Ye Jun smiled and wrapped his arm around her. "You did great even in your worst situations. I’m happy to say both of my wives are so cool."
ihui’s smile widened hearing his words as she leaned against him, her face showing hints of redness.
"I feel left out," Song Liangxue muttered before hugging ihui from behind. "Don’t forget I’m also a part of this family."
"I have two beautiful reasons not to," Ye Jun grinned, staring at her beautiful bosom.
ihui pinched his waist and said, "Be nice to her. She helped you so much, yet you’re implying that you only care about her body?"
"It’s nothing," Song Liangxue said, smiling. "I did pick him as my husband because I liked his handso face and because I found him interesting. There’s no other reason. And I’m obviously pleased to know that my husband loves my body."
"You two...." ihui sighed, feeling that she was the weird one among them. "In any case, you’ll always be my sister. We didn’t start off well, but I’ve slowly begun to like you too. Thank you for everything you’ve done for this dummy and also for ."
"I should be the one to say that," Song Liangxue shook her head. "I didn’t really do anything, but you accompanied him, protected him and were also there when he needed emotional support. I can’t replace that."
"It ain’t a competition," Ye Jun said, slowly pushing himself between the two of them. Then he wrapped his arms around them and pulled them closer. "You’ll always be the most important people in my life."
ihui smiled and embraced him too. "I’m happy to hear that."
" too," Song Liangxue planted a kiss on his jaw and said. "Though I think we’re changing the subject. ihui, you’re a strong woman."
"I wish I was," ihui smiled dryly and said. "Anyways, now you know what kind of people are looking for . My family must be looking for and if they find us, they’ll take back to their pocket dinsion and might even punish you for daring to lay hands on ."
"I guess I’ve already made a Monarch Clan my enemy," Ye Jun said. "Doesn’t matter though. I won’t let them do anything to you."
"Dummy!" ihui pouted. "Don’t say such things."
"I noticed it," Song Liangxue gave her a glance and smirked. "These lovely words work best on you, huh. Just seeing that your love is ready to stand up for you makes you blush."
"S-Shut up!" ihui buried her head in his embrace. "And what’s wrong with it?"
"Nothing, I just find it amusing," Song Liangxue smiled. "But then again, it’ll work on too. I might even get aroused by it and give up on my cultivation technique, so please make sure you’re not too manly around , dear."
She reached for his ear and whispered, "Otherwise I won’t let you off my bed for days."
Ye Jun shivered slightly, but he wasn’t going to be outdone by her. He turned to stare at her and smiled, "Why would I want to get off my bed when I’ll have you pressed under ?"
They stared into each other’s eyes filled with desire, holding it back with everything they had. They knew it was a dangerous ga, but they played it anyway.
Song Liangxue tilted her head a little and said, "I think we should stop. Soone can’t handle it."
Ye Jun looked down and found a cherry-red face buried in his embrace. He couldn’t help but pinch her cheeks. "How adorable!"
She swatted away his hands and muttered, "Perverts! Both of you are perverts!"
They both laughed, which made her even more angry but soon, she joined them too and laughed heartily.
"I love this mont," ihui said. "But they can snatch it from us."
"I won’t let them," Ye Jun replied in a firm tone. "I know it sounds like empty words, but I’ll make sure we’re always together."
"I’m happy to hear that, but you’ll have to work extra hard," ihui smiled. "My family won’t do much, but if the Zhou Clan finds us, we’re done for. They’ll kill all of us and then use against my family. That’s why I was working hard to heal myself and increase my cultivation."
"So, our opponents are aware of your talent and strength?" Song Liangxue asked.
"I doubt it," Ye Jun said. "People tend to live in denial, so they might think it was a short burst of power because of her Clan. I assu those great clans have so bullshit power-up things."
"She wasn’t there personally," ihui nodded. "So I’m sure they still underestimate . The only reason they still think I’m alive is because my Soul Jade is still intact in the Clan Hall."
"You have sothing like that?" Ye Jun was speechless, but could guess its function. "If you die, it’ll get destroyed or sothing."
"Sothing like that."
"Well. That’s pretty handy," Song Liangxue said. "I’ll propose it to my Clan too. Maybe we can make it."
She suddenly thought of sothing and said, "We know both of your backstories, but what about mine? You don’t know anything about ."
"I’ll be happy to know everything about it," Ye Jun smiled and said. "So feel free to tell even mundane details."
"That was smooth."
Song Liangxue smiled and started telling them her side of things.
