Li Ye satisfiedly withdrew his hand. There were still no scars on Shen Jiuniang, but the fear within her had deeply etched itself into her soul. Li Ye smiled at Shen Jiuniang and said, "You must hate me very much for treating you this way."
Shen Jiuniang dared not say she hated him; she couldn't even bring herself to hate Li Ye. The immense fear consumed her. At that moment, all she wished was to escape from here as quickly as possible. She shook her head vigorously and said to Li Ye, "I dare not, I dare not! I am extremely grateful to Young Master Li for your hard work in allowing me to experience the Great Memory Restoration Technique. I am endlessly grateful! I beg Young Master Li to spare me!"
Li Ye continued to smile, looking at Shen Jiuniang with gentle eyes and asked, "Are you really that grateful to me?"
Shen Jiuniang felt a moment of daze. The man in front of her, with gentle eyes and a smiling face, who referred to himself as "I" instead of "I" seemed to be the upright Li Ye from Qingyang City returning. She hurriedly cried out, "Really! Absolutely! I am very grateful to Young Master Li! The great kindness of Young Master Li is unforgettable!"
Li Ye's smile became even gentler and brighter, but his words made Shen Jiuniang feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave. Li Ye said in an extremely gentle tone, "But I don't believe you!" As he spoke, he reached into Shen Jiuniang's mind and smiled, saying, "Let's experience the Great Memory Erasure Technique again!"
As he spoke, Li Ye's hand stirred wildly within Shen Jiuniang's brain, completely mixing up her neural structure. Before she could say anything, her mind was in chaos; all perception, memory, and instinct vanished. She seemed to become an empty shell—an empty shell devoid of any vitality, with a soul but unable to do anything. At this moment, a term fit her perfectly—vegetative state.
Li Ye stood up, brushed off the dust from his hands, and coldly glanced at Shen Jiuniang, who had completely lost consciousness as if examining a discarded item. He turned and walked toward his waiting companions in the distance, a wicked smile still lingering on his face.
"Is it done?" Yan Yuchen couldn't help but ask as Li Ye approached, although she already knew the answer in her heart.
"Of course! My methods are not something a mere mortal like her can withstand!" Li Ye nodded and his face returned to its usual calmness and composure.
Zhiruo looked at Li Ye's expression with mixed feelings but still gently asked, "Next, are we going to Jiangnan Capital?"
Li Ye shook his head and said, "Before that, we have one more thing to do." As he spoke, he brought Zhiruo before the now vegetative Shen Jiuniang and instructed Zhiruo, "Use the healing methods from the Heavenly Physician Ancient Scroll to restore her brain structure!"
Zhiruo asked in confusion, "Why restore her brain?"
Li Ye coldly snorted while looking at Shen Jiuniang and said, "A newly created brain is a blank slate. I want to implant new memories and new perceptions into her so that she becomes my loyal servant and gives Wei Chenghao that brat a surprise."
Zhiruo replied doubtfully, "Then wouldn't it be simpler just to turn her into a zombie?"
Li Ye shook his head and said, "She has no cultivation; turning her into a zombie has no value. Moreover, zombies have red eyes and pale skin; they would be too easily exposed."
Zhiruo nodded in understanding of Li Ye's intentions. She took out an ancient Heavenly Physician Ancient Scroll from her bosom. Gently unfurling the scroll, she began reciting the ancient incantation as spiritual energy surged around her.
Zhiruo formed hand seals with both hands; green light emanated from her fingertips—soft yet full of vitality. Her fingers traced complex runes in the air; each rune radiated strong life force as if spring buds were breaking through the earth. She lightly touched Shen Jiuniang's forehead with her fingertips; green light instantly flowed into Shen Jiuniang's body.
"Divine Physician Rebirth, Spiritual Energy Rebirth." Zhiruo whispered, her voice melodious like a celestial song.
As the incantation was recited, Shen Jiuniang's body began to tremble slightly, her brain gradually enveloped in a green glow. The light seeped into her brain marrow, slowly yet steadily repairing the damaged brain tissue. The glow flowed like a gentle stream, reconnecting the shattered nerves and cells, constructing new neural pathways.
Shen Jiuniang's complexion gradually turned rosy, and her breathing became steady. Zhiruo continuously changed her hand seals, with Spiritual Energy swirling at her fingertips, as if a warm spring breeze was caressing the earth, bringing vitality back to Shen Jiuniang's body.
After a moment of effort, Zhiruo finally withdrew her hands, and the green light slowly dissipated. She let out a soft sigh, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said to Li Ye: "It's done; her brain has been reconstructed. But now she is just an empty shell without memories."
Li Ye nodded in satisfaction, walked in front of Shen Jiuniang, and gently tapped her forehead with his hand. Spiritual Energy flowed from his fingertips into her, beginning to instill new memories and cognition. He spoke softly: "You are my loyal servant; your mission is to find Wei Chenghao for me and give him a surprise."
As Li Ye infused her with new memories, Shen Jiuniang's gaze gradually became clear, as if awakening from chaos. Her eyes grew resolute as she knelt respectfully before Li Ye, saying: "Master, Shen Jiuniang is at your service."
Watching this scene, Zhiruo felt a mix of emotions. Although Li Ye's methods were ruthless, they were a necessary means to combat evil like Wei Chenghao. She approached Li Ye and asked softly: "Can we set off now?"
Li Ye nodded: "Absolutely! Next step, we head to Jiangnan Capital."
Outside, Liu Chengfeng and others waited, unaware of what had just transpired in the woods. However, seeing Shen Jiuniang smiling obediently following behind Li Ye, they assumed that some sort of deal had been struck between them. The group set off along the official road; by nightfall, they still had not found an inn to stay in and could only continue on their way.
At that moment, a group of men in black suddenly blocked Li Ye's path. Their attire made Li Ye frown; he recognized it all too well—this was the standard night gear of the Shadow Assassins. With a cold smile, he addressed the Shadow Assassins: "Is it that Liu Zhang is afraid I might starve and sent you here as snacks?"
The leader of the Shadow Assassins stepped forward and said: "Lord Liu has a message for Li Young Master."
Li Ye raised an eyebrow and replied: "Spit it out!"
The man twitched his lips and gritted his teeth: "Lord Liu says he values you as a young hero. If you would join his ranks, he can provide you with anything you desire—whatever you want, Lord Liu can fulfill!"
With a cold laugh, Li Ye asked: "Anything can be fulfilled for me?"
Seeing that Li Ye seemed interested, the man quickly responded: "Exactly! Anything can be fulfilled!"
Li Ye nodded and smiled: "Then I want his life!"
As he spoke, Li Ye laughed maniacally and charged at the Shadow Assassins. His speed was lightning-fast; the sword in his hand gleamed coldly with each swing taking away a life. Although the Shadow Assassins were well-trained, they stood no chance against Li Ye. With every person he killed, he felt their soul's power being devoured by him; his laughter echoed through the night sky, sounding particularly mad and bloody.
Blood splattered everywhere, and soon the ground was piled high with corpses. Li Ye's eyes sparkled with a mad light, each of his attacks filled with endless killing intent. The Shadow Assassins before him fell like paper, one after another.
"Hahaha!" Li Ye laughed maniacally, "I really do enjoy you fools walking into your own trap!"
Liu Chengfeng and the others stood by in shock; they had never witnessed such a bloody and frenzied scene. Zhiruo and Yan Yuchen's faces turned pale, but they knew that everything Li Ye did was for revenge, for the innocent lives lost.
"Brother Ye..." Zhiruo whispered, feeling both proud of Li Ye's strength and pained by his madness.
One by one, the Shadow Assassins fell until only their leader remained. His eyes were filled with fear, and the weapon in his hand trembled. Li Ye stepped forward, grabbing him by the neck and coldly asking, "Now tell me, what is Liu Zhang's next plan?"
The man struggled desperately but was powerless against Li Ye's strength. He stammered, "Liu... Lord Liu wants... wants..."
"Wants what?" Li Ye's voice was icy and piercing.
"Lord Liu wants to set an ambush in Jiangnan Capital, waiting... waiting for you to walk into the trap..." The man finally revealed Liu Zhang's plan.
Li Ye sneered, throwing the man to the ground and stepping hard on his chest, coldly saying, "Thank you for the information." With that, he plunged his sword through the man's heart, ending his life.
After the battle concluded, Li Ye stood amidst the pool of blood, laughing towards the sky, his laughter filled with endless killing intent and arrogance. Everyone looked at Li Ye, who had completely transformed into a god of death, their hearts filled with complex emotions. Zhiruo stepped forward, gently tugging at Li Ye's sleeve and softly saying, "Brother Ye, that's enough. We have more important things to do."
Li Ye's laughter gradually subsided; he nodded as the madness in his eyes slowly faded away, regaining some clarity. He looked at Zhiruo, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's go."
