Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1074: Show Mercy

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1074: Show rcy

Ye You frowned, raising both palms to release his Magic power, setting up a barrier within the cave. The falling rocks were deflected by the barrier, causing no harm to anyone.

Now Qin Sisi and Dong i no longer needed to worry. With the battle confined within the barrier, the surrounding environnt would not be damaged.

After a few rounds, Dong i gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. Although both she and Qin Sisi were Interdiate Magic Spirits, Dong i had not received systematic training at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and her overall strength was weaker.

Moreover, she had just been injured by the Fire Dragon Lock Chain, and her weapon, Cloud Thorn, was only Level Four. With all these factors combined, Qin Sisi’s overall combat power naturally surpassed hers.

Seeing Dong i gradually losing strength, Qin Sisi’s montum surged. She leaped forward and shouted, "Bloodthirsty Blade!" Magic power surged through the Moon Spirit Golden Feather, condensing into a fierce, gleaming blade. The handle was adorned with intricate floral patterns, and the slightly curved blade radiated a silver brilliance, like the rising sun over the eastern sea or the bright moon illuminating heavenly mountains.

Dong i, realizing her inability to counterattack, could only summon another Freezing Wall for defense. However, after several rounds, her stamina and Magic power had waned, and the power of the Freezing Wall diminished considerably.

With a terrifying "crash," the Bloodthirsty Blade smashed through the Freezing Wall, scattering shards of ice across the ground. Yet the blade didn’t stop; its residual force carried an awe-inspiring power as it swung toward Dong i, who was hiding behind the shattered wall.

"No!" Dong i cried out in agonized despair, believing this would be her impending doom.

Suddenly, she felt a cold sensation at her wrist, followed by heat a mont later. A surge of intense pain swept through her entire body within seconds.

Looking down, she saw one of her hands separated from her body, lying on the ground. The earlier cold sensation ca from the Bloodthirsty Blade striking, the heat from the warm blood gushing forth, and the pain from her right hand being cleanly severed at the wrist.

Shocked and in agony, Dong i trembled violently. Qin Sisi’s earlier strike, if aid slightly more precisely, would have undoubtedly turned her into a lifeless corpse.

Glaring at the punished Dong i, Qin Sisi said solemnly, "Aunt i, out of respect for Patroness Gewan, I’ll spare your life. I hope this serves as a lesson for you. Show genuine loyalty to His Highness. If you ever act in betrayal again..."

At this mont, she turned to Ye You. After all, Dong i was the servant of Ye You’s mother, and her future fate should ultimately be decided by him.

Ye You paused for a mont before picking up where Qin Sisi left off, uttering three cold words: "Kill without rcy."

Dong i shuddered violently, looking at Ye You in disbelief. Her heart turned icy cold. How could he be so ruthless toward her? Did he forget how deeply she cared for him as a child?

Reading Dong i’s expression, Ye You sighed, stepped forward, and lifted her bloodied wrist. Using the Wood Attribute Magic Power, he stopped the bleeding, then crushed a Bodhi Pill and applied it to the wound.

Finally, he looked her in the eye and sternly advised, "Aunt i, I respect you. Let’s hope you won’t disappoint

again."

After these words, Ye You’s inner conflict subsided as he took Qin Sisi’s hand and left the cramped cave.

Attempting to harm the future Patroness was a grave cri. He had already granted clency; Qin Sisi could have killed her but ultimately chose to show rcy.

If Dong i could understand gratitude, she should repent and remain loyal henceforth while also respecting Qin Sisi. If she stubbornly refused to change her ways, then the next ti she made such a mistake, her life would no longer be spared.

Grandma Mad and Yun Wang followed Ye You and Qin Sisi back to their dwelling. After hesitating for a long while, Grandma Mad summoned her courage and said, "Your Highness, pardon my intrusion, but although Dong i is loyal to Patroness Gewan, her narrow-mindedness and lack of discretion might bring harm instead of benefit if you keep her nearby."

Ye You’s emotions, which had just cald slightly, were once again stirred. Qin Sisi squeezed his hand and responded to Grandma Mad, "Thank you, Grandma, for your advice. Then let’s assign soone to keep an eye on her. Yun Wang can handle it!"

Most of the soldiers and servants here were from the Panhu family, so having Yun Wang address this matter was most appropriate.

Yun Wang agreed promptly, exchanged a glance with Grandma Mad, and the two retreated one after the other.

Ye You sighed deeply, turned around, and suddenly pulled Qin Sisi into his arms, burying his head in the curve of her neck. He muttered in a muffled voice, "I’m sorry."

Qin Sisi gently stroked his back and replied softly, "It’s not your fault."

"How can it not be my fault? It’s all my fault. I’m so useless—I..." Ye You was filled with indescribable pain. He thought he could protect her completely, yet she constantly encountered danger. He still wasn’t strong enough.

Seeing Ye You drowning in self-bla, Qin Sisi’s heart ached as well. She tried to console him with a relaxed tone: "Don’t say that. It’s my own carelessness.

She knew Dong i didn’t like her but still let her guard down when Dong i made requests. She even willingly ate the food Dong i provided, which led to all the subsequent problems.

Ultimately, her own vigilance was too low; she assud that being on Ye You’s turf ant she was safe, forgetting that hearts could conceal treachery, and smiles could hide daggers.

This incident was a lesson for her and also a warning for Ye You.

With mutual honesty, the couple eased their emotions. As Ye You cald down, he released Qin Sisi. His fingers brushed against her cheek as he softly said, "Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll be more careful from now on, and you need to be more vigilant too."

Qin Sisi smiled faintly and nodded. She understood Ye You’s disposition well; even though he spoke casually, to him it was a vow. Qin Sisi trusted that he would do better in the future.

"Where are Jing Jing and Xiao ng?" Ye You changed the subject at the right mont.

In a gentle voice, Qin Sisi replied, "They were exhausted after healing , so I told them to go rest first."

Ye You nodded, wrapped his arm around Qin Sisi’s waist, and glanced around slyly as he asked, "Why didn’t you kill her just now?"

"Her" naturally referred to Dong i.

Qin Sisi blinked and responded, "I already said it was out of respect for Patroness Gewan."

Ye You smirked mischievously, "Why would you care about Patroness Gewan’s face? What is she to you?"

Qin Sisi opened her mouth but said nothing. Ye You was clearly teasing her. She diverted her gaze and muttered under her breath, "She’s your mother."

"She’s my mother, so what is she to you, then?" Ye You leaned into Qin Sisi’s ear, continuing to prod her. His warm breath tickled her ear, reddening both her earlobe and cheeks.

"Don’t ss around," Qin Sisi pushed Ye You lightly.

But Ye You didn’t let go; instead, he held her tighter. After a long pause, he softly whispered in her ear, "Sisi, let’s get married!"
