Chapter 445: Jade Pendant 445 Reappears

Before accepting Sikong Mo, Ye Jiu had cautioned him, "Alright, you can go in, but you must not touch my belongings. If you promise you can abide by this, I will let you in. If not, then I will..." ignore you.

Although he didn’t say it explicitly, that was exactly what Ye Jiu’s eyes conveyed.

Therefore, Sikong Mo nodded, "Okay."

Knowing that Ye Jiu was highly cautious and wouldn’t let her guard down before she trusted someone, Sikong Mo wouldn’t do anything to push her away either.

Moreover, he had never intended to take any advantage from her.

Even though he had suggested she help him prepare food supplies, it was with a plan aiming for mutual benefit.

After all, the money he paid would certainly not put Ye Jiu at a disadvantage, and this girl would get the food more easily than others.

Otherwise, natural military supplies preparation would involve buying up a lot of food, which would lead to food shortages and thus drive up the prices. This might not mean much for wealthy families, but for the poor, sometimes a single grain could mean a life.

Before Ye Jiu accepted Sikong Mo into the space, she also gave him some medicine to apply by himself.

Then, Ye Jiu lay on Ye Bai’s back, and as soon as they had left, all the scouts started to arrive.

It included Si Nan’s rescue team and the King of Calm. What they saw were scenes of devastation and corpses everywhere, and, after searching the entire Heavenly Prison and its vicinity, Sikong Mo was nowhere to be found.

Some rejoiced while others worried, but at this moment, Ye Jiu had successfully been flown back to her own courtyard next to the War Prince Residence by Ye Bai.

As soon as Ye Jiu returned, she saw Ye Wenzheng rushing out of his room, his clothes clearly hastily thrown on, "Little aunt, where have you been so late?"

Ye Jiu’s gaze slightly dodged, "I didn’t go anywhere. I just discovered that Bai Bai could actually fly, so I lay on its back and took a spin outside."

"Oh, then be careful, little aunt." Fortunately, Ye Wenzheng didn’t inquire further. "By the way, little aunty, there was suddenly a blaze in that direction, probably something happened. Be cautious when you go out."

Ye Jiu nodded, responding, "These days might not be peaceful. Go and instruct the housekeeper to tell everyone in the residence to stay indoors if there’s nothing urgent."

"Alright, I understand. It’s getting late; you should rest early, little aunt," said Ye Wenzheng.

Back in her room, Ye Jiu quickly locked the door, then lit a candle. With a thought, Sikong Mo emerged from the space.

But the item in his hands startled Ye Jiu.

At once, Ye Jiu went over and snatched the item from his hands, "Didn’t I say not to mess with my stuff!"

Ye Jiu spoke harshly, and likewise, Sikong Mo’s expression turned grim.

"This Jade Pendant, where did you get it from?" Sikong Mo suddenly asked, his voice tinged with complexity.

"This is something I’ve had with me since I was born." After taking the Jade Pendant, Ye Jiu realized her demeanor was inappropriate and immediately apologized, "I’m sorry... my tone was harsh."

Had been wearing since birth?

Sikong Mo’s mind suddenly flashed to a scene!

That year, when he, at ten years old, was bloodied and fleeing from pursuers, he had run into a woman holding an infant.

At that time, seeing the infant’s face was bruised blue and the bloodstains from birth had not been washed off, it felt wrong to see someone carrying the baby out in the heavy rain.
