CHAPTER 336: CHAPTER 336: BLOOD JADE BRACELET (2)_1

"Yes, let’s go. In three months, ensure the person is delivered to the Shangguan Family." Zhuge Yang promised once again. Then, scooping up the elder, he disappeared into the night sky.

"Sly girl," Third Young Master Ye said, his large hand brushing her hair as he smiled, watching the figure disappear over the horizon.

"This young miss is nothing but filial! How am I sly?" Shangguan You pursed her lips disdainfully. "Besides, she took care of me for over a decade. Naturally, I must repay her well."

The Zhuge Family is so peaceful, aren’t they? Then I’ll find something to keep them busy, so they won’t always be thinking of targeting Zhuge Feng.

"Hahaha, I like a girl like this. A girl like this is worthy of me," Third Young Master Ye laughed loudly as he lifted her right wrist, looking at the Purple Jade Bracelet he had put on it.

"Little brother, are you really going to do this?" Second Young Master Ye said urgently, watching Third Young Master Ye’s actions. "Think it over. This isn’t just about you; it’s about the entire family."

"I know what I’m doing," Third Young Master Ye said firmly, gently caressing the Purple Jade Bracelet. His fingertip grazed it, and a drop of bright red blood dripped from his finger.

"What are you doing?" Shangguan You struggled, but Third Young Master Ye held her tightly. He took her left hand and pricked her index finger, drawing a drop of blood. "I’m putting my mark on you—Third Young Master Ye’s mark," he murmured, as his blood and Shangguan You’s mixed, gliding from their fingertips and gently seeping into the Purple Jade Bracelet on her wrist.

"You..." Shangguan You exclaimed, her eyes widening as she watched the two drops of blood swiftly merge. A flash of blood-red light was quickly absorbed into the Purple Jade Bracelet.

A dazzling red light flashed. She involuntarily closed her eyes, then quickly reopened them. The purple hue of the jade bracelet on her wrist was fading, becoming transparent. Inside, two blood-red streams, like fresh blood, were intertwined and flowing slowly.

A cool sensation flowed from the bracelet into her body.

"Girl, this is the Blood Jade Bracelet. It belongs to both of us, so you must protect it well. Inside, one stream is you, and the other is me," Third Young Master Ye said, a glint of light flashing in his profound eyes as he spoke tenderly.

This now belongs to us both. With this, I’ll know immediately if she’s in danger. Similarly, if I’m in danger, she’ll also know instantly. This is something only the Matriarch of the Ye Family is entitled to possess. I never even imagined our combined blood could wield such power.

"Little brother, you’re too impulsive," Second Young Master Ye said, recovering from his shock and looking at Third Young Master Ye with concern. He had made such a momentous decision entirely on his own, without consulting the family.

"I know what I’m doing," Third Young Master Ye said lightly, glancing at Shangguan You, who was still dazed.

"Girl, from now on, we’re family. My things, even my person—naturally, that includes me—are also yours. If you need anything, it’s all yours to use, free of charge," Third Young Master Ye whispered in Shangguan You’s ear, giving her a flirtatious wink and gently blowing a breath onto her ear.

"Get lost! I don’t need anything from you!" Shangguan You’s ears flushed scarlet. She pushed Third Young Master Ye away, speaking with a mix of anger and embarrassment at his intimate words.

"Hahaha, but what if I need you?" Third Young Master Ye said provocatively, stepping toward her again after being pushed away.

"Shameless!" Shangguan You cried out, her face turning an even deeper shade of red. Third Young Master Ye was blatantly teasing her!

Suddenly, the surrounding air grew cold. Third Young Master Ye extended an arm, pulling Shangguan You behind him as a formidable aura erupted from him. Second Young Master Ye also emanated a similarly icy presence.

"Since you’ve arrived, how long do you intend to hide?" Third Young Master Ye said coldly, unleashing Sword Qi into the night.

THUD! A dark figure swiftly appeared before them.

"Hahaha, I never expected to see Second Young Master Ye here. I wonder what wind blew two such busy men into this mundane world," a voice laughed. The newcomer was also dressed in black, though his attire was an old-style Tang suit.

"And I wonder what wind brought the Zhuge Family’s elusive great talent here?" Third Young Master Ye retorted with a roguish smile, his deep eyes flashing with a cold light.

"Zhuge Feng, now that we’ve met, do you still think you can run today?" Second Young Master Ye shouted sharply, his dark figure soaring into mid-air to stand opposite Zhuge Feng.

"Since I’m here, how could I possibly run? Besides, I have no intention of running," Zhuge Feng declared with a loud laugh, his dark eyes sweeping over Shangguan You, who stood behind Third Young Master Ye. "Second Young Master Ye, since we’ve encountered each other, we should naturally have a proper contest!"

"Where did you take Li Wanying? Why did you kidnap her?" Shangguan You demanded, looking at this man, whose handsome face bore a fifty-percent resemblance to the Zhuge Feng she knew. She quickly leaped forward.

In the secret chamber of the Ministry of Health, I didn’t see that person’s face clearly, but he was also dressed in black and just as strong—identical to this man. I never expected to encounter him again, a man about thirty years old.

"Girl, this is the business of adults and has nothing to do with a little girl like you. Moreover, now that she’s in my hands, no one can take her away. So, all your painstaking efforts are useless," Zhuge Feng said sharply, a blast of palm wind sweeping toward Shangguan You.

"How can it be unrelated? Zhuge Feng! Where have you taken him?" Shangguan You frowned, her figure flashing as she swiftly dodged the attack.

At the same time, Second Young Master Ye’s sword sliced through the air toward Zhuge Feng again. The two instantly clashed. While fending off Second Young Master Ye, Zhuge Feng still answered Shangguan You’s question, "That boy just returned to his family to accept his destiny. When it’s time for him to come back, he naturally will. So, you don’t need to worry at all. However, when that boy returns next time, he won’t be the person he was before. He will be Zhuge Feng of the Zhuge Family, and he will have nothing more to do with you."
