Chapter 1488


    The lion''s sideburns were thick and dense, and it wasn''tfortable to touch.


    Jing Jiaren sized up the red lion andmented, "You''ve gained weight. You must have been cking


    off for the past two years."


    "Roar!" The lion''s response was a coquettish roar.


    This lion was born in the Lion n. Because it was small and couldn''t cultivate spiritual energy, it was


    destined to only be an ordinary demon beast and was abandoned by the Lion n.


    The first time Jing Jiaren and Ye Qingyang went out together to train after they got engaged, they


    happened to encounter this red-furred lion. Seeing that it was starving, Ye Qingyang saved it.


    Later, on the night the Ye family was exterminated, Ye Qingyang was hidden by his nsmen in an


    interspatial ring that could store living things. He was thrown into the river at the back of the mountain


    and floated along the river into the distance. Only then did he manage to escape. However, Ye


    Qingyang''s beloved pet, the red lion, was abandoned in the Ye family.


    Later, Ye Qingyang''s Beast Heart was dug out and sold by the auction house. Then, his whereabouts


    became unknown.


    Later on, the Ye family''s ancestral home became deserted. The local government wanted to auction the


    Ye family''s ancestral home to build the city. Jing Ruge thought about how hundreds of people in the Ye


    family had died in that old house and how it would be a pity if the Ye family''s ancestral home was sold


    just like that, so she bought that piece ofnd.


    After buying the Ye family''s ancestral home, Jing Jiaren brought her people to the Ye family''s house


    and renovated the Ye family''s house that had been destroyed to the point of being unbearable to look


    at. Then, she erected a monument in the Ye family''s square. Many yearster, Ye Qingyang returned to


    the Divination Continent as a Grand Master ghostly cultivator. He massacred his enemies in a single


    night and burned down the Ye family''s ancestral home.


    After that, there was no longer a Ye family on the Divination Continent.


    Jing Jiaren actually knew very well that the reason Ye Qingyang didn''t severely injure her after he


    defeated her on the apocalypse battlefield was because he was grateful to the Jing family for buying


    the Ye family''s home and erecting a monument for the Ye family''s phantoms so that their souls could


    have a ce.


    Ye Qingyang was actually very upright and principled.


    He resented the Jing family for betraying him back then, resented Jing Jiaren''s heartless words, but


    was also grateful for the Jing family''s subsequent actions.


    Jing Jiaren discovered this red lion when she went to the Ye family to set up a monument. That day,


    Jing Jiaren heard the guard report that he had discovered a starving lion in the Young Master''s


    Mansion at the back of the mountain.


    When Jing Jiaren heard the news, she hurriedly went to the back mountain. When she found the red


    lion, it was as thin as a skeleton and was lying in Ye Qingyang''s courtyard, like a stone statue. No


    matter who handed it water or fed it, it ignored them.


    Only when it saw Jing Jiaren did the red lion slowly get up. It walked to Jing Jiaren''s side step by step


    andid its head by her feet while letting out a despairing and pained roar.


    It had seen its master''s family get killed with its own eyes. When it saw its master''s fiancée, it thought


    that it had seen hope. However, it didn''t know that Jing Jiaren had already ruthlessly abandoned Ye


    Qingyang.


    Later on, the Red Lion became Jing Jiaren''s beloved pet.


    Jing Jiaren said, "I have to take a bath. Are youing with me?"


    The red lion roared and wagged its tail as it followed Jing Jiaren to the hot spring in the backyard. After


    Jing Jiaren walked into the hot spring in a negligee, warm water wrapped around her fair and smooth


    body. The red lionid by the pool like a Divine Gatekeeper.


    As Jing Jiaren looked at the red lion on the shore, she suddenly asked, "Honghong, do you miss him?"


    Honghong didn''t react.


    Jing Jiaren asked again, "Honghong, do you miss Ah Yang?"


    Honghong suddenly raised its head and looked at Jing Jiaren eagerly.


    Jing Jiaren''s heart ached. "Honghong, I forgot to tell you that I''m not worthy of your trust at all. He was


    once down in the dumps. Many cultivators on the Divination Continent are sinners, and I''m the one with


    the deepest sin."


    They couldn''t kick Ye Qingyang into the abyss that easily. She was the one who truly kicked Ye


    Qingyang into the abyss.


    She had personally crushed his hope, his love, and hisst hope for humanity.


    Therefore, she deserved to be hated by Ye Qingyang.

    Honghong looked at Jing Jiaren with confusion and whimpered, as if it was asking Jing Jiaren, "Where


    is Ah Yang?"


    Jing Jiaren couldn''t bear to look at Honghong''s eyes, which were filled with longing. She slowly sank


    into the hot spring to hide her tears.


    Seeing that Jing Jiaren didn''t get up even after a long time, Honghong felt uneasy. It hated hot water


    the most, but it jumped into the hot spring without hesitation to carry Jing Jiaren out.


    As Jing Jiaren looked at the red lion that was covered in wet fur, she suddenly shook her head and said


    with a smile, "Even you know how to protect me, but I refused to protect him…"

    After a long-awaited shower, Jing Jiaren changed into a silk nightgown and sat in the garden with the


    red lion to admire the moonlight.


    At this moment, a butler in a ck tuxedo walked in quickly with a lunch box. Seeing Jing Jiaren resting


    against the red lion''s majestic body, the butler said softly, "Young Master, the Patriarch asked me to


    bring you the Divine Suppression Soup."


    "I still have to drink it?" Jing Jiaren opened her eyes and stared at the butler as she said, "I don''t have a


    headache anymore, so I don''t have to drink the Divine Suppression Soup anymore, right?"


    The butler smiled and said, "Even if you don''t have a headache anymore, drinking a bowl of Divine


    Suppression Soup is beneficial to your health. Besides, you''re going to participate in a grand event


    tomorrow morning. After drinking the Divine Suppression Soup, you can sleep well and participate in


    thepetition tomorrow in high spirits. Wouldn''t that be the best?"


    Jing Jiaren shook her head and extended her arm towards him. "Give it to me."


    The butler hurriedly opened the lunch box and took out a ck porcin bowl with red soup in it. This


    Divine Suppression Soup was taken from a level-10 Divine Beast, and its blood had the miraculous


    effect of calming one''s mind and soul. Jing Jiaren had been weak since she was young, so Madam


    Zhang personally went to the Demonic Beast Forest and captured a level-10 Divine Beast to raise in


    the Jing family''s Demonic Beast Pool.


    When she was young, Jing Jiaren drank a bowl of Divine Suppression Soup every week.


    Jing Jiaren frowned as she drank the Divine Suppression Soup and she wrinkled her nose at the smell


    of blood. "I''m going to bed now." Every time she drank the Divine Suppression Soup, Jing Jiaren


    became very sleepy, and this time was no exception.


    The butler nodded. Then, he thought of something and said, "Young Master, Madam wants you to see


    her before you set off tomorrow morning. She said that she has a talisman for you."


    "My mom is so superstitious," Jing Jiaren muttered as she returned to the room.
