ther-child connection..."The old woman kept talking as she reached out to gently rub my hands and feet, trying to relax me.She mumbled to herself: “I hear you’re a child of the Xue family… Is Old Mrs....Which Ms. Xu are you referring to Xu Yaqi

How come there's a feeling of a dying ember reigniting Wasn't she just lying in the hospital, behaving well Why did she suddenly wake up!

She was drained of half her soul and it was poured into the Soul Refining Furnace. She wasn't just acting strange, she was utterly insane.

And her father has fallen from grace, Hai Yan Lou is now a desolate ruin. She should still be in a coma, how could she suddenly recover

If an uninformed person were to see this, they might think it was a miracle.

But we are very clear that she has been refined even to the point of losing her soul, how could she possibly be “conscious”

"Tsk, something's fishy about this!" My brother said into his phone while driving, dialing up the Ghost Inspector Big Treasure.

Taibao is very busy now, and all the Yin差 in the human world are looking for the ghost princess.

Generally speaking, there are two possibilities. One is that it's hiding inside a special barrier, and the other is that it's possessing a living person to use their life energy as a shield.

Could it be that the ghost princess has taken over

She could have found anyone, but why did she end up with Xu Yaqi

"What should we do Xu Yaqi's identity is special, she's under strict surveillance. Her father is in a special prison, and her entire family is under surveillance. If we go to trouble her, will we get noticed by the state" I asked worriedly.

My brother called Dabao's phone, but no one answered. He took the phone and frowned, saying: "It doesn't matter, Lin Yanhuan isn't going to recommend the Shen family as a special advisor If you perform well, as long as you can serve as this special advisor, we'll also have some legitimate excuses to stir things up."

"But my knowledge is so limited! I can handle ordinary people, but when facing those high-ranking elders, I'm afraid I'll stutter!" My head was pounding, this was way beyond my capabilities.

"What are you afraid of You have your husband here. When it comes to knowledge, who among mortals can compare to him" My brother sped up, rushing home as fast as he could.

As night fell and clouds gathered on the river, I asked him to take me to the city of the witch king in the depths of the Mi Jiang River.

He frowned slightly. "What were you doing there again"

"Find Mu Wanchen! Let him take a look at this, Qingyuan Daochang said it might be a poison curse. See if he has any way to deal with it. I don't want my brother to have any health problems, we need to eliminate any potential threats." I looked up at him.

Jiang Qiyun hummed softly, seeming somewhat displeased.

"Aren't you being a little stingy Mu Wanchen has helped us twice, and he hasn't bullied me or anything. He just played a harmless prank." I looked at him helplessly, "Then why don't you teach me how to pass through your portal channel so I can go myself"

Jiang Qiyun reached out and pinched my cheek, shaking it deliberately with force: "You still want to run around on your own, huh Let me chase you all over the world"

"...Then you come with me."

He smiled and raised an eyebrow, leaning closer to ask, "How do you ask someone for something Have you forgotten"

"...Old... old husband, please take me to the Witch King's City." I said reluctantly.

Sometimes when we're intimate, the peak of pleasure can make me forget myself and call out his name, or "husband," even though he clearly has a fondness for that term and seems to want me to use it constantly.

Jiang Qiyun's school of thought is located downstream from the Witch King City on Mount Wu.

As twilight deepened and the autumn wind grew cooler, he looked at me and asked, "Are you cold"

I nodded. The wind at night is very cold.

He smirked, I don't know what evil scheme he was cooking up. I saw him bend down and pick up a fallen leaf.

He gently flicked a fallen leaf into the river. The withered yellow leaf, like a sponge absorbing water, swelled and grew rapidly larger.

A single leaf boat lay upon the water, two black birds flew in the air, carrying off the thin rope of the little boat.

"Let's go by water, it's just as fast, and you won't catch a cold." He tucked me under his arm and we settled onto the little boat.

Sailing against the current, yet made light and smooth by the wings of two large birds.

"The divine's power is so convenient," I couldn't help but exclaim.

He glanced at me: "Not everyone can come up..."

"Well, I've had tea from the immortals." I watched him standing serenely at the bow of the ship and couldn't help but hug him from behind.

"Bai Qiye said, 'When the world returns to softness, what does that mean' "

“The greatest softness in the world overcomes the hardest substance. Nothing can enter what has no gaps. This is why I know that inaction is beneficial. Have you forgotten the Tao Te Ching Where have your literary studies taken you” he chuckled softly.

"Of course I know what he means! I just don't understand why he has to say it like that." I replied, annoyed.

This sentence means: Using the gentlest laws of nature in the world, one can traverse even the most powerful nations. With this, one can reach everywhere and penetrate every barrier.

But this is the most straightforward meaning, as for its extended meaning I can't say for sure.

Jiang Qiyun should have known, but he just smiled and said nothing.

“Is there anything wrong with Yu Gui” I asked worriedly.

He reached out and pinched my nose: "Don't get any ideas, of course not."

"What does that mean"

"...Maybe he thinks you're more agreeable, or perhaps even more delicate...difficult to please, hmm..." He let out a light chuckle.

"Then what does he call himself, the Young Emperor of Younan"

"Then what, should I call him" Jiang Qiyun said with an air of self-righteousness.

We were talking, when suddenly a huge bowstring sound rang out—

"Bang!"

A black spear was hurled towards the bow of our ship.

Jiang Qiyun's incantation speed was incredibly fast, forming a protective barrier in an instant. The spear seemed to strike an invisible wall, shattering into two and falling into the water.

Do they think we are invaders The mournful horns blare, torches light up both sides, and red lanterns glide across the zipline above my head, casting pools of toxic mist.

"Hey hey... what's going on here! Even if you don't know friend from foe, there's no need to be on guard with such extreme measures, is there!" I hid in surprise behind Jiang Qiyun.

He reached out and pulled me close, calmly saying, "Maybe there's something wrong with the Witch King City...otherwise these people wouldn't be so panicked."

No way... that humanoid weapon wouldn't be in danger, would it

I felt as if I had traveled through time, surrounded by bows and crossbows, venomous spiders, insects, and poisonous mists… This place instantly resembled hell.

Jiang Qiyun maintained the barrier, at a dock where he docked. He held me and jumped onto the stone platform, greeting us were arrows flying densely.

Those people might not see the rising clouds of Qi, thinking I was alone. But when they saw a protective barrier around me, they shrank back a few steps. That's when I noticed that they were all wounded.

Were you just in a fight

When I first saw Mu Wanchen, he was alone deep in the village. This kind of personality would sooner or later get him into trouble! Could it be that he was injured

"Hey! Where's Mu Wanchen Is he hurt! I've been here several times! Doesn't anyone here know me" I asked, a little annoyed.

"Wait a minute, I remember this woman." An old man stepped forward and looked at me.

"I am his friend, where is he!"

The old man fell silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice: “Follow me…”

I followed him to the majestic palace perched on the precipice. As soon as I stepped through the entrance, a pungent aroma of medicine filled my nostrils—upon each other like a soft bed.Two pairs of copper-bell like eyes appeared before me, glaring with rage, their beards bristling and their voices booming like thunder."Little Madam! How did you come h...
