The reason Ye Yuan bought this cat-girl was because he sensed the same aura coming from her.
The aura of a fellow Soul Beast! Ye Yuan guessed that the cat-girl possessed the bloodline of a Soul Beast.
Or perhaps, just like Xiao Wu, she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form!
Now, as long as he bought her and bestowed his grace upon her, it would be a decent initial preparation for the establishment of the Heavenly Court.
Ye Yuan dismissed everyone in the private box.
"Alright, everyone is gone. Tell me, what is going on?"
"Why is the Xiao Wu beside Tang San so similar to my Yan'er, even down to her habits!"
Ye Yuan had seen that girl again just now during the bidding.
She was sitting next to Tang San, and at this time, there could only be one person who would come to the auction house with Tang San: Xiao Wu.
The Douluo Continent is vast, and there are countless people who look alike.
But for even rare, tiny habits to be identical—is that right?
And the most crucial point: what on earth was that hairpin stuck in Xiao Wu's hair?
He had examined the pattern over and over again just now; it was the one he had personally carved himself back then.
He thought and thought, but he couldn't figure it out.
Finally, he considered one possibility: his past life self had done it!
"Come out, you Little Golden Man, I know you exist!"
Ye Yuan's heart was pounding. He had originally thought that Yan'er was already dead, but now he felt as if his Yan'er might not be dead after all.
"If you don't come out, I'll die right in front of you!"
"Come out!"
Ye Yuan shouted for a long time, but there was no response.
Besides Yan'er and Little Xue, what else did he care about most in his past life?
Suddenly, he thought of something.
He immediately summoned his martial soul—the Bloodthirsty Sword.
"Listen well, if you don't come out and tell me the reason, I'm going to cut off my little willy!!!"
Suddenly, Ye Yuan felt a wave of dizziness and collapsed onto the seat, unconscious.
A little golden figure appeared in Ye Yuan's mind.
He clutched his head, his face full of helplessness.
He said to Ye Yuan, "The past me is truly stubborn!"
He never imagined that he would actually think of this method to force him out.
Ye Yuan immediately stepped forward, saying excitedly, "You finally came out. Are you me from my past life?"
The Little Golden Man shook his head and said, "Not exactly. I am merely a wisp of consciousness from your past life."
This Little Golden Man was the one Ye Yuan had placed into his own body while in the snow during his past life.
Ye Yuan was just about to say something when he was interrupted.
"Alright, I know the doubts in your heart. See for yourself."
After speaking, the Little Golden Man waved his hand, and images suddenly appeared before Ye Yuan. The person in the images was none other than Ye Yuan from his past life.
Star Luo Empire, Imperial City, Qin Yan'er's residence.
Yan'er was in an exceptionally good mood today because she had finished sewing the robe and was determined to make her brother wear it.
Just as she was rejoicing.
She suddenly discovered a piece of clothing on the sofa in the room. She walked over to take a look and saw it was Ye Yuan's.
It seemed he had left it behind when he came to visit her.
Qin Yan'er suddenly walked to her door and peeked outside like a thief.
Seeing that no one was there, she quickly closed the door.
Then, she immediately trotted over to the sofa, picked up Ye Yuan's coat, and pressed her nose against it.
She took a deep breath, her eyes becoming somewhat hazy, and she thought to herself, It's brother's scent. It's so nice.
She was becoming a bit addicted to this coat.
She didn't want to wash it; she really wanted to hug this coat and sleep with it every night.
If she hid it away secretly, would her brother discover it?
Probably not, right?
Just as she was still pondering, she suddenly felt a chill behind her.
She turned around immediately, and the person before her gave her a start.
"Brother?!"
"Why did you come back early?"
Qin Yan'er was so startled that she immediately hid the coat in her hands behind her back, her face flushing crimson.
Ye Yuan looked at Yan'er, his eye sockets turning red.
Tears streamed down uncontrollably.
"Brother, why are you crying? And why has your hair turned white?"
Qin Yan'er was somewhat puzzled.
She and Ye Yuan hadn't seen each other for only a few days, so why did it feel like her brother had aged so much, even his hair turning white?
His face was full of exhaustion, and his expression revealed an endless sense of loneliness.
Ye Yuan rushed directly toward Qin Yan'er and hugged her tightly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Yan'er."
"It was my fault for not protecting you back then."
"It's so good to see you again."
"Wuwuwu..." At this moment, Ye Yuan wept in Qin Yan'er's arms just like a child.
Qin Yan'er didn't know what her brother had been through, only that he was unhappy.
If Ye Yuan was unhappy, then she, Qin Yan'er, was unhappy too.
Qin Yan'er reached out to stroke Ye Yuan's head and said softly, "Alright, alright, don't cry, Brother."
A moment later, Ye Yuan finally adjusted his state of mind.
He pulled Qin Yan'er to sit on the sofa and said slowly, "Yan'er, what I'm about to say might sound absurd, so you need to prepare yourself mentally."
Qin Yan'er nodded her little head and said, "Mm-hmm, go ahead, Brother."
Ye Yuan took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I am Ye Yuan from the past, and you are going to die in the near future."
"I came to this point in time to save you, but for certain reasons, I cannot simply take you away."
"I can only hide you."
Qin Yan'er nodded and said, "Okay, Brother, Yan'er will definitely cooperate with you!"
This straightforward answer caught Ye Yuan off guard.
He looked at Qin Yan'er in surprise and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'm someone else in disguise? Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you? And you aren't even going to ask why?"
Qin Yan'er rolled her eyes, then said in a serious tone, "Because you are my brother, and you wouldn't lie to Yan'er."
"Even though Brother has become much more weathered, the way you look at Yan'er hasn't changed." She stroked Ye Yuan's face with her right hand.
"Besides, Yan'er is your person anyway; even if you were lying to Yan'er, Yan'er would accept it."
Her heart ached slightly; Brother must have had a very bitter life in the future, right?
So much so that just seeing her earlier, he cried like a child.
A magical thought suddenly appeared in her mind: if there were two brothers doting on her, it would be very happy, right?
A young brother and a mature brother—that would simply be double the happiness!
Hearing the little girl's answer, Ye Yuan's eye sockets began to turn red again.
"You little girl, you're really too cunning; you almost made Brother cry again."
Ye Yuan adjusted his state once more and continued, "Actually, I have already come to see you twice."
"The first time was when you were young; I came that time to separate your soul."
"Separate my soul?" Qin Yan'er asked in confusion.
"Yes, that person has been secretly observing every move on the Douluo Continent. If I force a rescue, he will discover it."
"So you must 'die', otherwise he will correct the historical trajectory again, and everything I have done will be in vain."
"Yan'er, you must 'fake your death', and you must even deceive the current me! This is the only way to pull the wool over his eyes!"
"Only then can you have a glimmer of hope for survival."
