Jiang Si can be said to be completely alone in this world.

She had long since severed ties with the original Lu family, and the only person she could be considered to have any connection with was Qin Zhi.

Qin Zhi witnessed her death firsthand.

After much thought, the people who deserve an explanation are her two apprentices.

"You guys decide who should go talk to her, I need to go see my mom," Qin Zhi said.

Logically speaking, he and Jiang Si weren't actually very close; they had already separated at birth.

Later, they became bitter enemies for a period of time, fighting each other to the death.

Their biological mother, the Fox King of Qingqiu, has no memory of them.

However, Qin Zhi still felt a bit apprehensive about returning home when he arrived in Qingqiu.

He was incompetent and couldn't protect his older sister. He and Jiang Si were twins, with Jiang Si being born a quarter of an hour earlier than him.

He only hoped that the prophecy would come true, and that at some point in the future, he would truly be able to have brotherly affection again.

The smiling face of the Fox Lord of Qingqiu froze instantly when he saw that only Qin Zhi was coming.

After a long silence, she said, "How come I'm not surprised by this ending?"

"Don't blame yourself, it's her fate."

They had known for a long time that there was no absolute fairness in this world. Since only Jiang Si could solve this deadlock, even Jiang Si's thoughts had been taken into account.

I am certain that she will follow her predetermined fate.

Xie Wuyi returned to the villa and hesitated for a long time, still unable to make up his mind.

Just as he was hesitating, Li Jianshan and Guan Qingchen returned in the same car.

A violent earthquake was detected in the northwest region earlier, but fortunately the area is sparsely populated and far from densely populated areas.

When the tremor reached densely populated areas, it caused only a slight tremor. Apart from a false alarm and a small amount of property damage, there were no serious casualties.

This was nothing more than a trivial disaster.

Everyone was relieved that there were no major casualties.

Moreover, the unusual events that had been frequently occurring in various places all disappeared overnight.

Those in the special agency who knew the inside story breathed a sigh of relief; thank goodness, they had escaped unscathed.

Li Jianshan and Guan Qingchen had been temporarily pulled away to help out, and they had just finished and returned. Upon seeing Xie Wuyi, the two got out of the car.

"Uncle-Master Xie, what are you doing wandering around the door?"

Guan Qingchen didn't see Jiang Si and asked, "Where's my master? Didn't he come back with you?"

Jiang Si is very strong, and the two of them have gotten used to her always doing some of the cleanup work.

Xie Wuyi dared not meet their gazes, his eyes darting away.

Both Li Jianshan and Guan Qingchen were shrewd individuals; they could tell from the way the eyes darted away that something big must have happened.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth Xie Wuyi's selfless dedication for such a small matter.

"My master is seriously injured?" Li Jianshan asked.

Seeing that Xie Wuyi still didn't speak, Guan Qingchen became anxious: "What's wrong?"

Just then, Han Yunluo appeared.

She grabbed Guan Qingchen's arm, her eyes filled with sorrow.

"Jiang Si," Han Yunluo said, her voice trembling with a rare hint of tears, "she's gone."

As soon as he finished speaking, you could hear a pin drop.

Li Jianshan suddenly turned his head and asked incredulously, "What do you mean by 'gone'?"

“She and the true dragon have already perished in chaos,” Han Yunluo said.

There was unusual activity above, and things were in a frenzy underground as well.

Han Yunluo had given half of her merits to Jiang Si, and she felt something when Jiang Si disappeared.

It felt strange, like something had been pulled away.

Jiang Si was originally a soul from another world who came to the mortal realm. From then on, her presence could no longer be found anywhere in the world.

She even had difficulty explaining her death to the outside world.

You can't say it's because she saved the world.

Much later, someone asked about it online.

Why haven't we heard from Jiang Si lately?

Someone responded quickly.

[Yeah, last time there were strange occurrences in various places, and some people even saw them sneaking around and helping to suppress them. Who knows what kind of ghosts came out? But why is it that we haven't heard from her since then?]

[Are you perhaps on vacation somewhere? The country is peaceful and prosperous now. And speaking of which, ever since those strange earthquakes in various places, I feel like my luck has improved a lot.]

[Bullshit, Jiang Si is just always busy. Apparently, someone saw a ghost and keeps tagging her, trying to get her to help, but she hasn't even logged on.]

[It seems like Li Jianshan made the final move, didn't he?]

I'd heard long ago that Li Jianshan became Jiang Si's apprentice; is he ready to graduate now? But a domineering CEO like Li Jianshan can't be out catching ghosts all day, can he?

[You guys are so stupid! If you can't tag Jiang Si, then tag Li Jianshan and Guan Qingchen! Aren't they Jiang Si's prized disciples? Surely they have some news about her.]

In the past six months, Guan Qingchen has turned down almost all her work.

There were no more updates on social media. He mostly spent time with Han Yunluo, doing rituals for the deceased, and occasionally handling matters on behalf of the Special Operations Department.

More often than not, they spent their days practicing the various secret manuals left by Jiang Si.

Ultimately, it was because they weren't strong enough that Jiang Si had to face everything alone.

Han Yunluo was also a cultivator, and exceptionally intelligent, making her more than capable of guiding Guan Qingchen.

The two of them cultivated together, which somewhat alleviated their sorrow.

He had mostly given up his previous work in the entertainment industry, but there were still some loose ends to be made.

Social media platforms are almost entirely managed by staff.

When staff members logged into his account, although a bunch of messages would pop up each time, it was rarely because of someone else.

Almost half of the questions were about Guan Qingchen's activities regarding Jiang Si.

Actually, the staff didn't know much either, but when Guan Qingchen returned one day, he looked much more haggard.

They didn't dare ask, because it couldn't be that the boss was dumped and Han Yunluo was dumped along with him, could it?

I privately asked the agent if they knew anything, but the agent was evasive and said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't."

People on the internet even spontaneously organized a topic.

#Where did Jiang Si go?#

The comments below were mostly tagging Guan Qingchen, Li Jianshan, or even the official Weibo account of the Li Group.

They refused to believe that after all this, they still wouldn't get any information.

But the result was that they didn't get any information at all, and the topic was even blocked.

Some people rebelled.

[Could Jiang Si's absence be due to some kind of superstitious belief that she's been arrested?]

[Let me offer a plausible explanation: someone as highly skilled as her, I suspect she might have gone into some remote mountain forest to cultivate.]

You're reliable, I trust you!

They could only guess, and those who talked too much even had their accounts banned.

Jiang Si seems to have become a taboo subject.
