When the Wen family's true daughter was found, she turned out to be a little charlatan from the mountains, full of nonsense. The entire circle waited to see her make a fool of herself.
Wi...
"Being able to communicate with spirits means being able to see the dead in other realms, but this also brings us bad luck. Evil spirits from all over the world are rushing into the Wen family, trying to take over our bodies. To protect us, Mom forcibly sealed off our abilities."
Wen Jianghan closed his eyes and said with difficulty, "The second son was able to break free and become a Xuanling Master later in life. I have always known about this. He joined the Special Management Bureau in order to find his mother's soul and get closer to the truth!"
Wen Xi lowered his eyes and said, "Second brother has never been found!"
Wen Jianghan said, "Well, actually, after we blocked our abilities, we had a brief period of peace until someone came to visit us three years after you were born."
Wen Xi frowned and asked, "Who is it?"
"That man and Mom were old acquaintances. We called him... Uncle Shi. He had always been dismissive of Dad and wanted to take Mom away. Mom didn't want to, so he stayed at our house until that day... Mom took you camping in the mountains and never came back."
Wen Jianghan clenched his fists and trembled as he spoke, "I only know that the evil spirits went crazy that day, all running up the mountain. They were madly trying to take your body away. Your life was hanging by a thread. Mom wanted to save you, so she could only draw the evil spirits to herself."
"I... don't quite remember what happened at the time."
Wen Xi held his aching head, and the memories in his mind came to an abrupt end.
"Mom took you and me there that day."
Wen Jinyu walked down the stairs with his hands in his pockets, looking at her with sad eyes. "She fought tooth and nail to give us a chance to escape. And at the time, there was another person who stood there indifferently, watching us fall into danger, yet he remained unharmed."
"Is it that uncle-master?"
Wen Xi frowned and guessed correctly, "Who is he?"
"He's your mother's senior apprentice. I once investigated his identity. He's just an ordinary orphan, without a father or mother, and no relatives. His background is spotless and simple. But it was this man who abducted your mother's body after her death. We tracked him down for over a decade and finally found him in a small town. When we arrived, he had mysteriously passed away right in front of us."
Wen Qingshan also came out, sighed softly, and talked about the past, his eyes full of sadness.
"What's even stranger is that there's no trace of a soul left in his body. Xiaoxi, do you understand? That body is like a temporary container!"
Wen Chenxi did not hide his figure. He walked out slowly with a glass of water and sat next to Wen Xi.
"You mean to say that that wasn't his original body at all, but the body his soul was looking for. When he died, it wasn't really his death, but his soul was looking for the next body?"
Wen Xi immediately understood what Wen Chenxi meant.
Wen Chenxi said, "That's right, that's right. Maybe he took my mother's body away and hid her soul."
Wen Jianghan said in a deep voice, "We thought so too, so we have been searching for his next body among the vast sea of people."
"You still can't find it?"
"It's extremely difficult, but through our efforts, we've already found some clues."
Wen Jianghan gritted his teeth and spoke word by word, "At least I know he's been lurking in this wealthy circle. I just can't tell who he's possessed. This guy is very cunning. I'm so close to the truth!"
"So that's why you wanted to take me to Knock Manor last time?"
Wen Xi said, "That wealthy circle, gathering together, and coming into contact with all kinds of spooky ghosts, is a great opportunity!"
Wen Jianghan sighed softly, "That's right, but I didn't expect that this incident between Qin Sheng and the Ghost Emperor would happen. It really was beyond my expectations."
"Xiao Xi, don't blame us for not telling you. You've been missing for so many years and finally came back. We just hope you can live happily and not carry the sorrow and hatred of the past!"
Wen Qingshan's eyes were red and he looked at her with loving eyes.
Wen Chenxi twitched the corners of his lips and murmured softly, "I didn't expect that my younger sister's identity is even more explosive than we imagined. In the end, I still rely on my younger sister to protect us!"
"Isn't family about accommodating and protecting each other?"
Wen Xi hooked Wen Chenxi's arm, thought for a moment, and said, "Zhai Wujiang also told me something this time, and I don't want to hide it from you. He said that it was my mother who replaced her fate with mine, and that I killed my mother. If it weren't for me, she would still have a chance to live, and everything I have, including my identity, would also be hers."
These words made everyone in the Wen family silent, and their faces turned gloomy.
"Fuck, what's this idiot saying behind your back? Was he there? He's just talking nonsense. Even someone like me who was there couldn't make up stories like him."
Wen Jinyu cursed out loud, "Little sister, don't listen to his nonsense. How could it be that you killed Mom? According to what he said, wasn't I the one who killed Mom too? Damn it! This guy has bad intentions and is a bad guy. Does he want to sow discord among our Wen family?"
Wen Chenxi held Wen Xi's hand and said coldly, "God knows when you were first born, the whole family was so happy. You are the sister our Wen family has been waiting for for a long time. You are my favorite. She protected you and Jinyu out of her instinct. What's with replacing fate? It killed my mother. Bah! If he hadn't been taken to the underworld by now, I would have rushed over and beat him up."
Wen Qingshan was also very excited. "That's right, you are our family's treasure. Listen to the nonsense that the Ghost Emperor said. Not to mention your mother, even your father, if I encountered such a thing, I would definitely protect you and protect you with my life!"
Wen Jianghan, who was always indifferent, also nodded and said, "We in the Wen family have always been protective of our shortcomings. Don't listen to such words. They are all lies!"
Wen Xi's eyes sparkled with a faint gleam, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. "Well, I get it. I've already beaten that guy to the bottom of the Styx. He won't cause any trouble for the time being. As for that man from back then, I will definitely pull him out!"
"Well, we will definitely find him out, Xiaoxi, you are not alone!"
Wen Jianghan looked at her with a firm gaze, his tone unquestionable.
"good!"
"It's been a while since our family has had a meal together. Since everyone is here today and Qinglian will be back soon, let's put everything aside and have a good meal together!"
As the head of the family, Wen Qingshan only needs to say a word and everyone will gather together happily, enjoying a rare moment of peace.
