Upon hearing this, a smile bloomed on Ye Xi's exquisite face.
"Big Sister Tian Yue, you have some injuries on you as well. Let's return to the mansion first and find a Spirit Master healer to treat you."
While speaking, Ye Xi kept inspecting the injuries on Tian Yue's body.
"Second Miss, returning to the mansion is fine, but there is no need to find a Spirit Master healer."
"The injuries on me are just some superficial wounds; there is absolutely no need to find a Spirit Master healer."
As Tian Yue spoke, she even reached out and patted her chest to show that she was completely fine.
"We are not short of those few gold coins; it is always better to find a Spirit Master healer to treat your wounds."
Ye Xi stood up from her seat and was just about to walk out of the private room when a voice sounded at the doorway.
"Are you looking for a Spirit Master healer?"
"Then perhaps I can help."
As the voice fell, a woman with a beautiful face, wearing a white dress, appeared at the doorway.
Beside the woman stood a middle-aged man with a determined face and a sturdy build.
Seeing the two who had appeared, Ling Yuan stood up from her seat, protected Ye Xi and Tian Yue behind her, and gazed calmly at the two people at the door.
"Your Excellency Ling Yuan, please do not misunderstand; we have no malicious intent."
"My name is Ye Qingxue, from the Nine Heart Begonia Family, and I am the current Clan Chief of the Nine Heart Begonia Family."
"The person beside me is an Elder of our Family."
After Ye Qingxue bowed to Ling Yuan, she turned her gaze toward Ye Xi, who was behind Ling Yuan.
Although Ling Yuan was a Titled Douluo, Ye Qingxue knew very well that the real person in charge was Ye Xi, who stood behind Ling Yuan.
"Clan Chief Ye, what is the matter with your visit this time?"
Ye Xi gestured for them to enter and then sat back down in her chair.
Meanwhile, Ling Yuan stood beside Ye Xi, her gaze occasionally flicking toward the Elder beside Ye Qingxue.
"There is no rush to discuss business. I see that this Young Miss seems to have suffered some injuries, and I can help treat them."
Ye Qingxue stepped into the private room. Her Spirit, Nine Heart Begonia, appeared in her hand, and beneath her feet, seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—began to flicker.
As her first spirit ring flashed continuously, a gentle light fell upon Tian Yue, causing the injuries on Tian Yue's body to recover instantly.
Feeling her injuries vanish, Tian Yue's gaze fell upon Ye Qingxue, and she said, "Thank you, Clan Chief Ye."
After thanking her, Tian Yue sat silently beside Ye Xi.
"It is a small matter."
Ye Qingxue revealed a gentle smile, then withdrew her Spirit and sat down in front of Ye Xi.
"Clan Chief Ye, thank you for your help."
"But what is the purpose of your visit this time?"
Ye Xi gestured for her to speak, indicating that Ye Qingxue could say whatever was on her mind directly.
"Young Miss Ye Xi, I have come this time to discuss a cooperation with you."
After Ye Qingxue finished speaking, she did not continue but instead observed Ye Xi's expression.
Upon hearing Ye Qingxue's words, a flash of surprise crossed Ye Xi's cerulean eyes, but she quickly regained her calm and assumed a listening posture.
Ye Qingxue wore a gentle smile on her face, but she spoke very seriously: "Our Family's Legacy Spirit, Nine Heart Begonia, is a very powerful support Spirit. It can even be said that as long as one has a breath of life left, our Nine Heart Begonia Spirit can restore the injuries they have sustained to their original state."
"However, we have a very fatal flaw, which is that in every generation, only one Spirit Master can appear with the Nine Heart Begonia Spirit."
"My daughter, Ye Lingling, is the next Clan Chief of our Nine Heart Begonia Family, and I want to find a Battle Spirit Master for her to protect her safety in the future."
"Originally, my candidate was Yu Tianheng of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, but just a few days ago, Ye Lingling returned to the Family and mentioned some things about you. After my investigation, I saw enormous potential in you."
"Therefore, I am prepared to have my daughter follow you, and our Nine Heart Begonia Family will reach a cooperative relationship with you, providing you with the necessary assistance."
After Ye Qingxue finished speaking, she looked quietly at Ye Xi, waiting for Ye Xi's reply.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xi did not reply immediately but instead tapped her fingers lightly on the table in front of her, thinking quietly.
"I want to know why you would give up on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects, to choose me instead."
"Mere potential does not seem to be worth you doing this, does it?"
Ye Xi crossed her hands and gazed calmly at Ye Qingxue.
Listening to Ye Xi's question, Ye Qingxue extended three fingers and said softly: "First: it is your own potential. Based on the talent you have displayed, as long as you do not perish halfway, becoming a Titled Douluo is only a matter of time."
"Second: You have a Titled Douluo by your side protecting your safety, and this Titled Douluo treats you as the master. Therefore, I believe there is a high probability that an organization stands behind you, likely some hidden Sect."
"Third: The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is gradually weakening, and Yu Yuanzhen, as the Clan Chief, has the heart but lacks the strength. The organization behind you is not necessarily weaker than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"So, considering everything, I feel you are more suitable than Yu Tianheng of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Ye Qingxue's voice was very calm, as if she were stating a fact.
"Cooperation is possible, but I have conditions."
Ye Xi nodded gently, her voice becoming serious.
"Please speak."
Ye Qingxue gestured for her to continue, assuming a posture of listening attentively.
"In a while, I will establish an organization, and I hope your Nine Heart Begonia Family can join."
"Although your Nine Heart Begonia Family will join the organization I establish, the relationship between us will not be one of subordination, but an equal cooperative relationship."
"Clan Chief Ye, what do you think?"
As Ye Xi spoke, she passed a drink to Ye Qingxue.
Listening to Ye Xi's words, contemplation appeared in Ye Qingxue's eyes, and Ye Xi did not disturb her, instead waiting quietly.
"Our Nine Heart Begonia Family is unwilling to become an appendage of other organizations, but since it is an equal cooperative relationship, joining your organization is naturally acceptable."
"However, after joining your organization, you will naturally be the master within your organization, and our Nine Heart Begonia Family will be secondary. So, what will be the treatment for our Nine Heart Begonia Family?"
Ye Qingxue picked up the drink in front of her and took a sip, but her gaze remained quietly fixed on Ye Xi's cerulean eyes, as if she wanted to see something in Ye Xi's eyes.
