Chapter 1429 - 1426: You Are a Good Person

The Patriarch of the Zhuo Family, after all, is the Patriarch. No matter how many objections or opposing thoughts anyone may have, under the decisions of the Patriarch of the Zhuo Family, they are all powerless and pale.

Listening to the voice of the Zhuo Family's Patriarch, the Elder, who was just opposing him, looked at him with a hint of disdain and ridicule.

You deserve the consequences of opposing me.

With Zhuo Longgang's words, this matter was thus decided.

Immediately, Zhuo Longgang issued orders to send people to search for Ye Qiu's whereabouts and initiate surveillance.

Of course, to be on the safe side, Zhuo Longgang deliberately dispatched two Half-Step Divinity Transformation Elders as insurance.

If a conflict accidentally broke out with that Ye Qiu, they should be able to handle it.

As for the previous claim that Ye Qiu might be a Divine Realm expert, Zhuo Longgang simply didn't believe it.

It's not that easy to break through to the Divine Realm.

After arrangements were made, Zhuo Longgang suddenly thought of something, furrowing his brow, he asked a subordinate next to him: "By the way, where is that boy Zhuoyue?"

"Reporting to the Patriarch, the young master has recently taken a liking to a woman and has been loitering around her company every day to pursue her. He should be in that area now."

Upon hearing this, the Zhuo Family subordinate respectfully responded to Zhuo Longgang.

"That waste! He doesn't train every day but only knows how to fool around with non-sense!!"

Hearing this news, Zhuo Longgang's face instantly darkened. He slapped the table, cursing.

However, Zhuo Longgang then took a deep breath and ordered his subordinate: "In the coming days, send a few more people to secretly protect him."

Even though Zhuo Longgang didn't believe Ye Qiu to be a Divine Realm expert, and how coincidentally Zhuoyue would meet Ye Qiu and have a conflict.

But after all, that Ye Qiu was being watched by the Ouyang Family as a key surveillance target, and the location was in Jiangnan City.

If it really was such a coincidence that Zhuoyue encountered Ye Qiu, that would be very troublesome.

Sending a few more people to secretly protect Zhuoyue, as a precaution, wouldn't hurt, would it?

"Yes, Patriarch."

Hearing Zhuo Longgang's orders, the Zhuo Family subordinate nodded in agreement, then slowly retreated and left.

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Ye Qiu was unaware of the fact that his presence in Jiangnan City had been discovered by the Ouyang Family and that they had contacted the Zhuo Family in Jiangnan, ready to monitor him to prevent his escape.

Now, after receiving a call from the little girl Lu Shiqing, Ye Qiu had arrived at the street where Lu Shiqing was.

When he arrived, almost immediately, he saw Lu Shiqing sitting by the roadside, hugging her knees, curled up under the street lamp, her clothes tattered and ragged.

Perhaps because the little girl's appearance was too unique, almost all passing pedestrians couldn't help but glance in her direction.

"I'm here."

With a sigh, Ye Qiu walked up to the little girl and draped a thin jacket he bought from a nearby clothing store over her back.

When Ye Qiu's jacket touched her back, the little girl's body slightly trembled and then she lifted her tear-streaked, dirt-smeared face to look at Ye Qiu in sorrow.

"Uncle!!!"

At the moment she recognized Ye Qiu, tears flowed like a breached dam, and she held Ye Qiu tightly, bursting into heart-wrenching sobs.

Hearing her heart-wrenching sobs, Ye Qiu, watching this little girl, couldn't help but feel a twinge of heartache.

Because Ye Qiu could feel that her sorrow wasn't an act but genuine sadness and pain!!!

"Stop crying. What happened? Tell Uncle, and let's see if Uncle can help you with anything."

Ye Qiu held the little girl, gently patting her back to comfort her.

However, the little girl seemed not to hear Ye Qiu as she continued clinging tightly to him, crying her heart out.

With a sigh, Ye Qiu knew that if the little girl didn't vent her sadness and pain through tears, it would be hard for her to calm down.

So, he decided to hold her gently, patting her back, waiting for her cries to gradually weaken, eventually turning into sobs.

Then, to Ye Qiu's surprise, the little girl, leaning against him, seemed to have cried herself to exhaustion and had fallen into a deep sleep.

Feeling a bit at a loss, Ye Qiu had no choice but to hold the little girl and find a nearby hotel to book a room, so she could have a good rest.

When booking the room, the receptionist at the front desk, seeing Ye Qiu holding a raggedly dressed little girl, looked him over with a strange gaze before finally allowing him to book a room, making Ye Qiu feel slightly uncomfortable.

He clearly was a good person, don't misunderstand!!!

"You're a good person."

Behind Ye Qiu, from an empty spot, came a somewhat indifferent female voice.

Ye Qiu and the little girl, Lu Shiqing, only met by chance, and when they first met, the little girl had even once used Ye Qiu to help shake off some thugs.

However, not only did Ye Qiu not hold this against her, but he also helped rescue her from nearly being assaulted by those thugs. Then, after she called for help, he didn't turn her down.

Now, after crying herself out and falling asleep, Ye Qiu did nothing inappropriate but booked a room for her to rest properly.

Thus, having witnessed all of this while following Ye Qiu, Mo Miaoyan couldn't help but say Ye Qiu was indeed a good person.

"I'm not necessarily a good person. I helped her just because I was a little curious about her affairs."

Ye Qiu shrugged his shoulders, saying this while casting a glance at the little girl, his eyes filled with inquisitive curiosity.

Because, from the little girl, he sensed a faint, elusive aura of the Power of Heaven and Earth, which now seemed to have grown even thicker.

To put it in perspective, if the aura emanating from the little girl before was as thin as a single strand of hair, it had now become a clump of hair.
