efore I could even refuse, Officer Lu let out two cold snorts and said, "Principal, I'm still right here. Are you trying to get the victim to change their testimony Do you think the law is a joke"The...The superintendent told me that when Chen Yan was delivering ginger soup to each room, she suddenly fainted. After being sent back to her room, she woke up feeling dizzy and delirious, talking incoherently.
Chen Yan was an orphan of a disciple from the outer sect of the Shen family. Because her parents passed away and she had no other close relatives to take care of her, the Shen family adopted her and raised her since childhood. She grew up in the Shen family with a very simple social circle.
She barely knew anyone outside the Shen family and had never stepped out of the Shen family's grounds alone.
Her unusualness, it seemed, began after the Shen family treasure trove was stolen.
After that, the Shen family also invited a Taoist doctor and sent him to the hospital for a check-up, but no physical or mental damage was found.
And she was a nobody at home. Whether it was memorizing scriptures, practicing morning and evening rituals, she wasn't particularly gifted but she was very hardworking.
Last time the Treasure Pavilion was robbed, none of us saw it. Only Lin Yanhuan went with them.
Thinking about this, I let the steward go first. I stood at the corner of the corridor and called Lin Yanhuan.
I hesitated to call him. Ordinary phone calls were often monitored, and sometimes when he was working on important matters, they would even be intercepted.
Lin Yanhuan recently didn't know what he was busy with... I listened to the busy tone of the phone while my mind wandered far away.
He hasn't been in touch lately, is he still in the country
Then I'll call Yanqin first
"Hello." A quiet male voice suddenly came from the phone.
I almost couldn't hold onto my phone, and I coughed hastily, "You...hello!"
There, after a moment of stunned silence, Lin Yanhuan chuckled and said, “……Xiao Qiao, what are you nervous about”
"Not nervous... just felt like there was something important happening on your end... Could you give me a call when you're free" Lin Yanhuan's voice was so calm, was he secretly talking to some big shot
"It's some important matters, but it's alright. What is it that you want to say" he replied.
Well, I didn't want to waste his time either, so I quickly asked him about what happened after he went to the treasure pavilion that day.
Actually, he had already mentioned these things before, nothing special. I just hoped he could remember some more details.
"What's wrong with Chen Yan" Lin Yanhuan asked, her tone sharp and direct.
"It's nothing, something happened at home, she's been running around helping out. I just saw her a moment ago and she looked dizzy...and I realized she's different from the other disciples..."
I simply stated that Chenyan had not been misled by the mirages.
Lin Yanhuan hasn't come to my place since the last time. After I told him this, he pondered for a moment and said: "I've already told you everything I remember... But recently, I seem to recall something strange again. When I pinned her down, I saw a faint light under her body. I'm not sure, it was pretty tense and chaotic at the time."
"What glows"
"I couldn't see clearly. I guessed repeatedly, it should be the Wheel of Reincarnation, but the halo flashed and was covered by her..." Lin Yanhuan paused and said, "Have you ever heard of Swallowing Light to Nurture"
What Like the ancient story about someone dreaming that the sun and moon entered their womb and they became pregnant
"Of course, I'm not saying she's pregnant. Rather, I'm speculating whether she possesses some unknown and unverifiable bloodline that has manifested within her body." Lin Yanhuan speculated: "After all, it wouldn't be strange for your Taishang Xuanmen or Shenwu lineage to have such occurrences."
The Reincarnation Bead was already quite extraordinary. When the witch bestowed it upon Yin Luo, he didn't seem to have much use for it. After placing it in the Shen family, something went wrong; the bead disappeared. If it truly merged into Chen Yan's body, then that would be the witch's true objective.
“Take good care of her, and if she needs money, tell me.” Lin Yanhuan reminded.
"Kidding, a big family like the Shen's couldn't possibly be short of money, could they" I laughed. "I know you're wealthy, but don't underestimate me! I can support myself!"
"Hmm... yes, yes, yes..." Lin Yanhuan smiled, her tone seeming a little lighter.
This makes me even more certain that he's in some trouble, but his level is different from ours, and I don't know if it's appropriate to ask.
"Actually, I have something to ask you... My helipad was destroyed, but now Jiang Qiyun wants me to go into seclusion. I wonder if you could contact a repair worker"
Lin Yanhuan was taken aback: "It's not possible at the moment."
He turned cold and said: "It's right that he had you retreat to cultivate in seclusion. Don't leave without permission."
"Mu Wanchen also said that... you guys only say half of the story..." I secretly curled my lips.
What on earth happened Even the celestial lord Ji Dou Xingjun came down to join the fun. Let's not talk about Ji Dou, this guy is known to descend to the mortal realm for games, nothing surprising there. But even Luo Hu Xingjun, that aloof little overlord, descended
I am now desperately suppressing the curiosity that claws at my heart, waiting for the answer to be revealed.
"Then, are you troubled because of this matter as well About me not being allowed to run around freely and being ordered to seal the mountain for cultivation" I pressed further.
"...Well, it's indeed the most troublesome thing right now. I'll be heading back south in a while and will come to see you again to discuss this in detail."
"Okay, I'll hang up then—" I was just about to hang up the phone when I suddenly heard a door slam on the other end of the line, followed by a woman’s voice saying: “You—”
Maybe someone saw Lin Yanhuan talking on the phone and held back.
But that one sentence, it ignited the gossip fire in my heart.
In this world, how many women could directly approach Lin Yanhuan and call out to him, "You"
No, no! I'm a cultivator, I shouldn't be gossiping like this! But I... but I can't bear to hang up the phone! Why didn't I use video call just now!
"I've got some things to take care of here. Let's talk face-to-face another day." Lin Yanhuan didn't give me a chance to gossip, his tone still as calm as ever.
The phone hung up, and I longed to hear anything but the maddening busy tone.
"Hey, what are you doing just standing here" Ji Dou Xingjun suddenly appeared behind me.
"I... came to see Chenyan." I let out a silent sigh. Was this like eating gossip about Lin Yanhuan It was practically digging up state secrets!
"Oh~ That little girl~ Not ordinary oh." Ji Dou curled his lips, hugging his sword and was about to leave.
“What’s not ordinary” I hurriedly stopped him—I didn’t dare reach out and grab him, but I could tug on his sword tassel.
He immediately stopped, glared at me with his eyes, and I was so scared that I let go and took two steps back.
These immortal deities all emanate an ethereal aura. Ancient people placed great importance on the ceremonial aspect of attire, even those who loved to fight were adorned with pendants.
"I only pulled it gently, you don't have to be so aggressive..." This guy, he broke the Switch my brother gave me. I haven't even settled scores with him yet.
“Hmph… That little girl has an ethereal aura about her. Coupled with what you said about the Reincarnation Orb being missing, it’s possible she has some connection to the Witch Clan” Ji Du scoffed. “The Witch Mother was an ancient female fairy. Although their Ten Witches of Ling Mountain don’t enter the Immortal Realm, they are quite capable and intelligent. Who knows what schemes she’s concocting…”
“Is that shaman good or bad…” I asked helplessly.
Whatever the witch doctor has in mind, I can't just throw Shenyan out onto the streets to fend for herself, can I
"Huh I wouldn't know, this old man was just a young fellow back then. How could I possibly comment on an ancient female fairy like Wu Gu" Ji Du replied arrogantly.
Yes yes yes... You were young back then. I think all of you immortals and demons are just big overgrown children....
"Stop wasting my time." Ji said impatiently, stating his purpose: "Where's Mu Yunfan Where is your brother This place is so boring! Tell him to bring some new gadgets over."
“......” a long way and walked all the way home.I've never experienced this feeling before. Jiang Qiyun has been by my side almost every day recently, accompanying me outside during the day and tucking me in...
