Chapter 231 Two Soul Swaps

"Huh? Yes, yes." Yan Ling ran over after seeing this, and the others also approached.

"Wow, Mo Li, you found it right away," Yan praised.

"It was just a coincidence," Mo Li said.

At this moment, the rock wall in front of them began to tremble slowly.

Seeing this, Xuanmo gripped Shu Ning's hand tightly, and the others also moved closer to her.

Then the rock wall moved aside, revealing purple speckles on the sides, with a passage in the middle.

Deep inside, it was still so dark that you couldn't see the way.

"Let's go in," Yan Ling said.

Then they began to carefully walk inside.

The passageway wasn't wide, only wide enough for two or three people to walk side by side.

Yan Ling led the way, with Yi Yuan and Yan walking ahead.

Mo Li and Xuan Mo were on either side of Shu Ning.

Xiao Chong, Jin Tong, and Xuan Lin followed behind them.

Han She walked at the very back.

Seeing that although the surrounding area was bright, the depths were still pitch black, Xuanmo simply picked up Shu Ning.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the abyss, at the former palace of the Zombie Dragon Clan—

Sensing the vibration of the dragon's spiritual vein, the dragon pearl suspended in the palace beside the seat suddenly lit up.

"They succeeded..."

The mermaid, who had been sitting in its seat, saw the dragon ball next to it light up, swayed its tail, and then immediately swam away.

"Someone come here."

An orc heard this and came in to reply, "My lord."

"Ready to go," he said, his voice rising.

"yes."

Afterwards, a group of orcs followed him toward the direction of the dragon vein.

——

After passing through the purple-glowing road, the further they went in, the wider the road became, and the brighter the light became as they sensed the presence of the newcomers.

The passage behind then gradually darkened.

Just as they were about to reach their destination, a deep voice suddenly came from all around them.

"Who...is it...?"

When the sound was made, all the beastmen except Mo Li felt as if their ears had been struck.

They could hear almost nothing except the sound that was being made.

Upon seeing this, Mo Li quickly covered Shu Ning's ears with both hands.

After the deafening sound ended, the people's ears immediately started ringing.

“Spirit Vein Beast, it’s me, Yan Ling,” Yan Ling called out in a clear and loud voice.

Upon hearing that it was Yan Ling, the voice that had been used stopped its previous attack.

Only then could their ears get a rest.

"Yan Ling..." The voice seemed to be hesitant and in thought.

Suddenly, a black-clad, blond orc appeared before them. He slowly opened his golden eyelashes, revealing golden pupils.

"It's been a long time...it must have been more than ten years." At this moment, his voice became gentle and clear after he transformed into human form.

"Yes," Yan Ling said with a heavy heart.

"Who is he?" Jin Tong asked curiously, looking at the orc in front of him.

"He is the guardian spirit beast of this dragon vein, coexisting with the spiritual veins of our zombie dragon clan. He existed before I was born and is said to have been guarding it for a thousand years," Yan Ling explained.

“Spirit Vein Beasts,” he called out, walking over to Shu Ning and introducing her, “This is Shu Ning from the Wolf Clan, and the others are her beast husbands.”

"I came to you this time only to ask for your help in restoring her memory," Yan Ling said.

"Don't you know how to restore memories?" the spirit vein beast said, taking steady steps closer to them.

“I can’t do that. I can only transfer memories, not restore them,” Yan Ling said. “Besides, her memories have been erased by someone. Can you see if you can find out who did it?”

"Come here," the spirit vein beast said, looking at Shu Ning.

At this moment, Shu Ning released Xuan Mo's hand, lifted the hat on her head, passed through Yi Yuan and Yan, and walked up to him.

She looked up at him.

The spirit vein beast looked at the clear-eyed female before it and said, "Isn't this good enough? Is it necessary to restore her?" as it examined Shu Ning.

"I... tried to switch her soul before, but for some reason, not only did it fail, but she also lost her memories. Now I'm atoning for her sins," Yan Ling said apologetically.

“Her memory is indeed empty,” the spirit beast said, “and it has indeed been tampered with by others.”

"Close your eyes," he told Shu Ning.

"Okay." Shu Ning closed her eyes and felt something cold covering her forehead.

After placing its hand on her head, the spirit beast closed its eyes and sensed the changes emanating from her body.

Suddenly he frowned, his previously calm demeanor turning serious.

"What's wrong?" Yi Yuan asked after noticing his change.

Upon hearing this, the other beastmen moved closer.

"She... hiss..."

The spirit beast suddenly opened its eyes and exclaimed, "Her soul has been swapped twice!"

Upon hearing the Spirit Vein Beast's words, the others were no longer calm.

"How could this happen?" Mo Li asked worriedly.

"The second one is the most recent," the spirit vein beast said, closing its eyes to sense it more carefully.

“We know that, and Ningning has already recovered,” Yiyuan said.

"What happened the other time?" Yan Ling asked.

“The other time was…” the spirit vein beast frowned, “not long ago, about half a year, no, even less time!” he said with certainty.

After the spirit vein beast finished speaking, the other beastmen each had their own thoughts.

Xiao Chong, Xuan Lin, Xuan Mo, and Yi Yuan roughly knew when it happened.

Shu Ning underwent a tremendous change after forcibly marrying the beastmen sent by the fox and dragon clans for a political marriage, a matter that remained a mystery to them.

Xuan Lin recalled her strange behavior when he first went to her cave to urge her.

Aside from not remembering him, how could she, who has always preferred males, forget about finding a partner?

He then displayed amazing skills, and although everyone said it was with the help of the Beast God, he didn't believe such an excuse.

Xiao Chong and Yi Yuan had already noticed this, but they both tacitly kept quiet about it.

When Xuanmo heard the spirit beast's words, he thought of how it used to pester him relentlessly, and he frowned.

Jin Tong, Mo Li, Yan, and Han She were shocked by the description of the Spirit Vein Beast.

Jin Tong and Mo Li had long heard that Shu Ning used to be a lazy, gluttonous, and extremely shrewish female, but after they became partners, they found that she was not as utterly wretched as the rumors suggested.

But everyone assumed that the rumors about Shu Ning's changed personality were just that—rumors—and didn't take them seriously.

Yan didn't believe him, thinking he was lying to them. She secretly kept an eye on him, walked up to Shu Ning, and was ready to take her away at any moment.

Han She stepped forward, pulled Shu Ning to her side, and protected her behind her.

"Did Ningning have her soul swapped a long time ago?" Jin Tong asked in confusion, turning to look at Shu Ning behind him.

Upon discovering that Han She had pulled her behind him, he, who had initially disbelieved her, now harbored a slight suspicion.

“Not bad,” the spirit vein beast affirmed.

"Could it be that all this time I've been spending time with is Ningning after her soul was swapped..." Jin Tong frowned.

Han She saw Jin Tong walk over in disbelief and hold Shu Ning's hand even tighter.

He exuded a cold aura, looked to the side, and said nothing.

"What do you want to do?" Xuanmo stopped Jintong at this moment.
